Chapter 2

"Hello"

"Hey Tails. I was wondering if you could give me and Knux a hand" said Vector

"What is it first?" said Tails.

Vector explained how Espio was sick and needed some medical attention.

"Yeah...Okay I'll be over "

"Bye Tails"

"Well" asked Knuckles as he kept the damp cloth on Espio's forehead.

"He'll be round"said Vector simply as he went back into the kichen.

A small moan got Knuckle's attention.

"Hey Espio" he said.

Espio only opened his eyes to look at Knuckles.

"Where's Vector" Espio asked weakly.

"He's in the Kitchen. Tails is coming 'round to see you." he explained as the pale chameleon closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

It didn't take long for Tails to arrive. He immediatly got round in taking Espio's tempature and all the other things that doctor's do when your ill.

"It doesnt look good"Tails said out of nowhere shaking his head.

"I think he has some sort of fever but I'm not totally sure ...I think we should keep an eye on him though and send him a doctor if it gets any worse."he said looking at Espio who was leaning on Vector as he tried to keep himself in a sitting position.

Tails left after a while as he had some business to attend to. Leaving Knuckles and Vector to look after Espio, they had sent Charmy to Vanilla's place so he could leave them in peace. Espio had finally given up in trying to stay awake and had fallen asleep against Vector. Knuckles smiled at this as Vector gently lay the chameleon back on the couch to only get a low moan of chuckled at that.

After Knuckles and Vector had eaten and watched some telly said

"Well am going to bed, you are welcome to sleep in the guest room."

Knuckles nodded as Vector headed into his room at the top of the stairs, he gave a sigh as he looked at the suffering Espio. His fever had not broken and it did seem to be only getting worse. Knuckles decided he should keep an eye on him, he got some pillows and a duvet and settled himself on the couch and fell asleep.

Knuckles was woken by someone getting up and the footsteps of someone running. Sitting up quickly, Knuckles noticed Espio missing.

Hearing someone whimper slightly, Knuckles made his way to the bathroom to find Espio leaning on the bath after empting his stomach again.
Knuckles approached him as Espio spotted him

"You ok Esp."

He got a nod in respond as he helped Espio back to the couch he was sleeping on. By just laying a hand on Espio's arm, Knuckles knew very well that this illness was not going away by itself. Checking the clock that read "5:30", he helped the poor chameleon to lie down on the couch he was sleeping on. Sitting on the floor beside him, Knuckles pressed a damp cloth against the forehead of Espio trying to relieve him of his fever. Knuckles didnt bother to try to go back to sleep.
