A bright light appeared over the horizon. A full body cast wearing Joriri in a speeding wheelchair came rolling out from behind the large hill with a scared, stitch covered Tamama following close behind. "Move it, Junior! Move it!" the black colored scout screamed in terror as a wave of explosions appeared just a few feet behind them, sending Tamama flying off of the ground and into the side of a mountain.
Bouncing off and landing on his side, the young Keronian inched himself onto his stomach and attempted to crawl away to safety before seeing three large rockets fly out from over the hill and straight down towards him. "YOU STAY BACK!" he yelled at the falling rockets, his eyes turning bloodshot and his cheeks beginning to expand. "TAMAMA IMPA-"
"-AAAHHHHHHH!" he screamed, his body flying through the air from the three explosions. He screaming was suddenly silence when his face smashed against the window of Pururu's medical room, catching her attention. She set her quick fix down and looked up at the scout's mangled face that was pressed up against the now broken glass.
"Medic."
MEET THE PURUMEDIC
"I suppose that most frogs would think that when you're a field medic, doing no harm would be the main issue." Pururu explained, looking back on her past mishaps when she was first starting out. "I happen to disagree."
Pururu whispered calming words to the injured Giroro, the gaping hole in his stomach letting all of his vital organs slowly escape his body. The blood bag that was attached to the heavy which hung beside her head suddenly burst open, causing the contents to spill out onto the floor. Looking at the wall behind the broken bag, she saw a recently thrown, red-stained ninja star attached to it, drops of the emptied out blood dripping off the side. Fearfully turning to her right, she saw a blue spy standing in the room with her, his blade out and ready to attack.
"In fact, I often found that the best kind of medicine was preventing it from happening in the first place. Doing it myself was usual the most affective."
Pururu screamed at the top of her lungs as she brought her saw blade down on the terrified red spy, instantly cutting his head clean off, sending it soaring into the air and landing perfectly in the dying heavy's open palm. Pinning the decapitated body against the wall, Pururu jabbed the end of the blood transfusion tube into the spy's open neck and threw it to the ground, pushing down on its torso to try and get the blood to flow out of its body and into Giroro.
"It was by far the hardest time of my life as a medic. In the time it took to save just one patient, a hundred others were already dead."
Sweat heavily poured down Pururu's face as she continued to push down on the dead spy's body, listening to the endless sounds of her platoon mates' screaming from just outside her door. Giroro's heart moniter suddenly went on a constant beeping, making Pururu jump up in shock and begin mindlessly shaking him to wake up. Having been unsuccessful in saving him, Pururu furiously slammed her fist against the wall as she could feel her stress level increase and her vision go blurry from the sweat in her eyes.
"To tell you the truth, I had actually almost given up. Not just with being a medic, but with life in general. I even considered suicide at one point. I know it sounds idiotic now, but I really was on the verge of something awful. It was, and always will have been, my darkest moment. That is until something...unexpected happened."
A sudden explosion from outside her room unexpectedly erupted, destroying her wall and sending Pururu flying off of the fallen Giroro and onto the bloodstained floor. She struggled to get back up as her hearing and vision suddenly became blurry. Looking into the corner of her room, she could see a horribly burning Joriri fall backwards into her medicine shelf, knocking everything off. Landing on the floor with the sound of plastic canisters and glass jars breaking, she watched as all of her supplies spilled out onto the floor in front of her, mixing together in a pool of frog urine and assorted pills.
Quickly spreading across the ground, the small pool reached a power socket that had been knocked out of the wall by the same explosion, electrifying the entire puddle. She was immediately starstruck when she saw the pool suddenly completely transform into a thick, dark red substance.
"...Inspiration struck."
Tamama wailed in pain at his severed arm, which he was now holding in his other hand. A drop of blood flew out of his socket and landed in the red puddle, catching Pururu's attention. The spot where the blood had landed suddenly released tiny, translucent red crosses into the air above it.
Pururu instantly went to work and pulled the tube out of Giroro's arm. She then began once again pushing down on the dead spy, its blood spewing out of the tube and into the red stream. Hundreds of red crosses floated upwards out of it, making Pururu's eyes widen with fascination.
Suddenly turning her attention towards Giroro, she watched with a shocked gasp as the puddle seemed to form around him, closing the hole in his chest and dragging all of his lost organs back inside with it. Before Pururu could even blink, Giroro's body suddenly seemed to look completely in full health again.
Giroro's eyes suddenly burst open as a loud gasp escaped his mouth. He let out several gasps of air as he studied the room around him. "What the hell happened?" he shouted, turning to Pururu and noticing the joyfully surprised look on her face.
"Incredible." she whispered. Feeling something laying in his palm, Giroro looked to his left hand, where he saw that he held the decapitated head of a blue spy. The spy's eyes immediately sprung open.
"KILL ME!" Dororo shouted. Giroro and Pururu both screamed in surprise as Giroro threw his head into the corner and Pururu pulled out her pistol. Firing once at the spy's head, she was starstruck when the bullet seemed to do nothing.
"KILL ME!" Dororo kept shouting as Pururu continued to fire bullets at the screaming head, which still seemed to have absolutely no effect.
"I'm...trying!" Pururu yelled in response before suddenly stopping and setting the gun down. "You're...bullet...proof."
"So after I discovered my prayer answering cure, I instantly went to work on figuring out how to get it to the battlefield, where it was needed most. With my new breakthrough, I could do in seconds what would take other medics months. I could take my platoon mates to the very peek of health and beyond. I...could make gods."
Pururu stared at the chaotic scene before her. Her entire platoon was being driven back by the their enemies. Explosions covered every corner of her vision and the air was thick with ash and smoke. She saw Joriri roll up to her in his small wheelchair she had made for him, desperately trying to outrun the rockets.
"PURURU!" he shouted before one of the explosions finally caught up with him, sending him soaring out of his chair and face first into the ground.
Pururu nodded at the Demo's plea and quickly flipped the activation switch on her Medi-Gun. Aiming at the face down Joriri, a trail of red Über escaped from it and absorbed itself into Joriri's body. The demo immediately got back on his feet and threw his casts off of his body, grabbing his gun and running back full speed into battle.
"Thanks!" she heard him shout as she turned her attention to Tamama, who was laying unconscious not too far from her. Blasting him with the same red Über, Tamama could feel all of his strength return as he jumped back onto his feet and went charging towards the army of soldiers that were heading towards their base.
"Now...as I was saying..." Tamama said with a vengeful smile on his face. "...TAMAMA IMPACT!" A wave of yellow energy fired out of the scout's mouth, demolishing the first wave of enemies and revealing an even larger wave behind it.
Pururu saw the incoming attack and smiled. "Giroro! You ready!?" she shouted, seeing her red friend covered safely behind a massive stone, away from the rockets.
"I guess so! But how do you know if this will work or not!?" he screamed back at her.
"Sorry! Can't hear you! Here we go!" she said back, wishing that he wouldn't doubt her skills as a medic. Flipping a second switch on her Medi-Gun, a small light on the side of her device that read 'ÜBERCHARGE READY' suddenly lit up. Pururu pointed her Quick Fix at Giroro, who reluctantly ran out into the open as to her demands, and fired.
Giroro let out a war cry as the ÜberCharge hit his body and began causing his heart to race out of control. Feeling something incredible suddenly enter and flow naturally throughout him, Giroro's entire being instantly became engulfed in glowing red and his eyes turned bright, glowing yellow. Walking forwards toward the wave of soldiers in front of him with Pururu following close behind, Giroro turned on his gatling gun and opened fire on the blue Keroros. A rocket came soaring down on Giroro as a large explosion consumed the red heavy, who casually walked out from the spark-filled smoke completely unharmed.
"YEAAAH! HAHAHAHAHA!" Giroro let out a hardy laugh, catching the attention of his fellow comrades, who were beyond shocked at the sight in front of them. "I AM BULLET PROOF!"
Both Pururu and Giroro smiled victoriously as they watched the rows of soldiers fall one by one as they came charging towards them, Giroro's gun mowing them down like never before. The bodies quickly began to stack, both Keronians standing proudly at the top of the massive pile of dead soldiers. As Pururu stood towering over the remaining soldiers who were just seconds away from death by Giroro's hand, she made sure to keep the image she saw of their terrified faces locked in her memory for as long as possible. This was one moment the pink Keronian knew that she never wanted to forget.
FUN FACT: For those of you who haven't seen it yet or who didn't catch on, this specific page was based off of the original, unused 'Meet The Medic' script that Valve chose to drop (however you can still find the deleted scenes of it on Youtube by going to teamfortess' main channel). I decided to go with this version instead of the official 'Meet The Medic' because I found that the whole mad scientist persona didn't work well with Pururu's character as well as the original did.
SIDE NOTE: The Medic is the class that I play the most often in TF2.
