A/N: This chapter is from Dr. Nelson's POV. I wanted to tell you all how the operation went but, I couldn't think of any other way to it but this way. Once again this goes to Laura and all the people who reviewed the last chapter and who have reviewed. Thank you!!
Oh and "I love Edward Cullen!" – Hey I'm a Twilight Fan what can I say…..
I knew that the scars would eventually heal and that the swelling would go down so, gazing at the once perfect face of Jaelin Clarent, I couldn't help but feel triumphant in the fact that the surgery was almost a complete success. Standing there I watched her sleep, I was surprised that Jaelin wasn't awake and crying in agony because one would think that having all your bones removed and replaced with a revolutionary metal alloy compound would be painful. Almost as silent as the rising sun I shut the door and started off down the never ending hallways, stopping outside one of these identical doors I took a deep breath and went inside.
"Dr. Nelson you're late, as per usual." I groaned inwardly, dear apple, I didn't realise she would be here.
"Good morning Professor Thompson, I hope you've had a glorious day." Trying to be polite and courteous.
"Don't use that tone with me, take a seat. Now before I was interrupted I was going to ask about the procedure that was held late last evening. As I wasn't notified I wasn't able to make it in time, so in future I'm the first person to inform of such things. Am I clear?" I felt like a school child again being told off by the principal. Professor Thompson turned to me as if I was to answer "Yes Professor Thompson, crystal clear." But, as I was a civilized adult I merely nodded and waited for her to continue her rant. But instead of continuing she kept looking at me, expecting a response, waiting.
"Dr. Nelson I do believe it was you who conducted the procedure, so would you like to 'fill me in'." She said in that voice that means she's giving you a second chance. I silently counted to ten before starting.
"The patients bones were successfully removed and replaced with a metal alloy compound-"
"Why?" Professor Thompson interrupted.
"To make the bones stronger and lighter than her original ones. The bones in her back where then reconstructed to fit in the joints of the wings"
"Her." The Professor once again interrupted.
"You say it's like a bad thing, Professor." Getting frustrated now, "The wing joints where then placed into the extra space and then the surrounding skin was stitched up seamlessly."
"What about the nerves Doctor and the muscles and the DNA?"
"Yes well, before the operation commenced the patient was injected with avian DNA into multiple places. We haven't connected the nerves from the brain to the wings yet, just in case the body rejected the DNA and alien attachments to the body. Muscles will be the easiest part of all this, you need not be bored with the facts."
"You sound very confident that this whole modus operandi will be a complete success, am I right?"
"Yes, I believe that it will be."
"Well, in my opinion, only an imbecile believes that they are certain about something."
"Are you certain about that fact, professor" I answered curtly.
"Humph, you aren't hoodwinking me into my own trap, Doctor. I have heard of these word games you like to play, and I just thought you might like to know that I like games as well." Professor Thompson replied even more curtly than myself.
"Professor" A quite large man with a large bald patch asked timidly.
"Yes, what do you want?"
"Er, have we decided on a date for the next procedure"
"Does it look like I have the answer? No, for your information I don't know you'll have to ask Dr. Nelson about that." She turned to me sharply "Well"
"I guess the next procedure will be when Jaelin has recovered, I also believe it would be best if we told her that we were operating on her." I knew I sounded soft but who wants a mad, uncontrollable ten year old that has the brain power to kill us all! And no, I'm not overreacting.
"You think it would be a good idea to tell her?"
"Yes, no one wants an angry child on their hands."
"Tell her when she wakes up. I've had enough of your stupid and idiotic jabbering, this board meeting is now officially adjourned." With that she stalked out of the room. The bitch. We all breathed an audible sigh of relief, thank beef jerky that was over. Because I don't believe in God.
A HUGE thank you to Demelza for letting me use her last name (Professor Thompson) and to Laura for letting me use her first name (Professor Thompson). The character P. Thompson isn't based on these two girls, they are the total opposite. I hoped you liked this chapter and could you review, it makes me soooooo HAPPY!! Thank you.
