Checkups Are Never Easy

Chapter 10-Espio


Espio walked into the soon to be torture chamber known as an examination room as the nurse shut the heavy wooden door as she left.

The chameleon looked around at the claustrophobic walls around him and decided to take a seat on the bed sitting in the corner.

Just as he sat on the mattress, the metal frame collapsed, sending the bed and Espio into a crumpled heap on the floor.

"What the-?" Espio was more shocked than hurt, but still received a bruise on his back. He stood up and brushed himself off, just as the doctor, a sandy colored weasel, walked in the door.

"Hello Espio! My name is Dr. Burich but feel free to called me Tracie." The doctor shook hands with the sore Espio. She then turned around to retrieve something off the counter and while she was turning around she accidently smacked Espio in the face with her clipboard.

"Ouch..." Espio groaned softly as he rubbed the sore spot on his face. Tracie didn't even notice.

"Now Espio if you would be so kind as to please step onto the scale..." Tracie instructed. Espio heaved a sign and walked over to the scale. But before he got a chance to step on it Tracie accidently tipped it over-right on top of our poor lizard friend.

"Ouch!" Espio yelped as the heavy piece of metal smashed down on top of him.

Tracie covered her mouth, "Oh my god I'm so sorry!"

"It's alright." Espio huffed as he struggled to get out from under the Scale of Death. Once he was successful in doing so he put the scale upright and stepped back to catch his breath.

"You okay?" Tracie asked as she stepped forward, stepping on his right foot fairly hard.

Espio winced and Tracie backed off again, apologizing profusely.

Espio stumbled back, trying to reach out for a counter to steady himself, then he un intentionally poked himself in the palm with a syringe that was hanging off the edge of a counter.

"Oh let me get you a bandage for that!" Tracie offered as she turned around, this time her tail going behind his feet, tripping him like she had pulled a carpet out from under him.

He fell back first on the cold, hard floor. But not before hitting his head on the remains of the bed on his way down.

Espio winced more with a pain-filled groan.

Tracie stood back, suspecting she would end up hurting him again.

Eventually Espio stood back up, gave the doctor a horrified look, and limped out the door, but on his way out he tripped over a piece of metal, crashing into the hallway.

"There's my stethoscope!" Tracie exclaimed as she bent down next to a throbbing Espio and picked them up and walked back inside the room, shutting the door behind her. Of coaurse hitting Espio with the door at the same time.


In the waiting room

A beaten and bruised Espio limped down the hall, looking like he had gotten in a street fight.

"Espio?! What happened Buddy?" Sonic asked with concern.

Espio didn't even look towards the blue hedgehog as he continued to walk towards the exit.

"Honey where are you going?" Rouge called after him.

"To another doctor."

Just then a nurse came back and called the next person's name with meager enthusiasm.

"Vector the Crocodile?"
