Twenty minutes later, the ambulance arrived. It pulled up and a paramedic with two Chansey came in. Andrew had gone out again in the twenty minutes so they knew who it was instantly. He was loaded into the ambulance and driven to the hospital in Viridian City. There he was taken to a ward where some Chansey rushed around. Their first job was to stabilise him. His body had gone into an unstable condition which was causing the black outs. If they could stabilise him, they could stop the black outs. He was given oxygen to steady his breathing. It worked a bit. One of the Chansey then blasted him with a Heal Pulse. It woke him up but whether it had stabilised him, nobody knew. The Chansey kept an eye on him for the rest of the day but he didn't go unconscious again.
When evening came, Andrew wanted to go to sleep as fast as possible. He wanted the day to be over and he wanted to forget. But he was still afraid in case the creature returned and attacked him again. But he was in the security of the hospital so he didn't think it could. So Andrew went to sleep, feeling better and secure.
Andrew slept in the next morning. He slept so late, in fact, that he missed breakfast because it was nearly lunch time! Andrew turned his head to look at the other people in the ward. The Chansey were all very busy giving people their medicine. One came over to him.
"Chansey."
"Sorry Chansey, I don't understand Chansey language."
The ward supervisor came over.
"It's saying that you woke up late."
"Well I did."
"Chansey, Chansey?"
"Do you feel better today?"
"Certainly."
"Chan, chan."
"You can go once they have made sure that your condition is still stable."
"Thanks."
The supervisor returned to his post. The Chansey also left but came back shortly with a few pieces of equipment.
"Chan!"
Andrew had no clue what it was saying but the supervisor was there again.
"He says that he just wants to check if you are fit to go because if so, you can leave as soon as you like."
"OK, great."
The Chansey picked up one of the tools and held it against his wrist.
"Chansey, chansey."
It nodded as well which made Andrew think it must have been a good result. The Chansey did the same a few more times with different items then nodded at the supervisor.
"It appears you are all clear to go."
"Great, thanks."
The supervisor helped him to his feet. Andrew shoved on all his normal clothes.
"Chansey has just said that your results were all good but if you start having the same problem again, you should come and see us or another hospital immediately."
"OK, thanks."
Andrew left the ward, escorted by an Audino which showed him to the exit. When he reached it, he took out his mobile phone and dialed his mother. She picked it up quickly.
"Are you OK Andrew?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. In fact I've just been allowed out of hospital."
"Brilliant news, I'll come along and pick you up."
"Thanks Mum."
Andrew ended the call and put the black and silver phone back in his pocket.
An hour or so later, Andrew's mother pulled up in front of the hospital in the car. Andrew hopped into the passenger seat.
"So you're OK then?"
"Yeah, but I'm still not sure what the Pokemon was."
"Nobody is."
They drove down the long road back to Pallet Town.
"We'll get you some lunch then."
"Thanks."
As they entered the house, Andrew's father ran up.
"Are you OK son?"
"I'm fine Dad, really."
"Well I've prepared you a big lunch. You must be hungry."
"I guess I am. Starving in fact."
"Well come and sit, we've all been worried about you."
Andrew was forced to sit down at the dinner table where plates upon plates of food were arranged neatly. Andrew tucked in immediately. Lucy rushed down the stairs.
"Andrew!"
She hugged him until Andrew thought he would burst.
"Lucy, leave him alone, he's hungry."
"Ohh."
She left and plodded back upstairs sadly.
"What did the doctor's say?"
"You mean the Chansey?"
"Chansey?"
"Hospitals use Chansey instead of humans. I mean there are humans about but mostly Chansey and the odd Audino."
"I might go break a leg to see them. But what did the Chansey say?"
"They said that if I ever felt the same way again, I was to go to the nearest medical facility immediately."
"OK, that's fine then."
Andrew scoffed down a mouthful of Grumpig ham and Gogoat cheese.
After the meal, Andrew was still tired, even after his sleep last night. So he went to bed very early so that he was ready for what the next day would bring.
Note - If anybody is wondering why something like this is happening so early on, it's to set up for something far further on in the fan-fiction. You will find out what soon enough. (If you want to have a think about what might happen later on {it's still not set in stone but I know what will probably happen} then have a look at the prologue and the chapter called 'The Dream'. See if you can think of any theories and post them in the reviews. (Put #Theory at the start of it). Maybe, just maybe, I'll think about your theory and include it in the fan-fiction. (No, I'm not running out of ideas. I have millions!) :)
