Chapter 11: Needles and cheek meat
In Gumballs room
Gumballs pov:
I opened my eyes and I was in my room. I got out of my bed and then, I don't know why, but I went over to my desk beside my bed. "How in the world did I end up in my room?" I smirked because directly after the question I remembered the little meeting I and Diamonds friends had. "Blossom- blare juice….. nice…"It's a less lethal version of chloroform. I opened the desk second drawer and picked up the long forgotten object. With the pain it brought back I can't remember why I kept it. I threw it back into the desk and went over to my closet to change from my pajamas into something I could walk out of my room in.
It suddenly hit me that I was wearing different clothes earlier. I could feel myself blushing. I wonder who changed my clothes. "Hopefully it wasn't a candy corn servant." I shivered at the thought. Candy corn people are truly the most perverted residents in the whole kingdom. I unbuttoned my shirt and threw it into a nearby hamper. Then I slid out of the oversized pajama pants. Now let's see what I should wear. "Hmmmmm." I jumped there was a knock at the door.
"Prince Gumball are you awake?" I quickly threw on the first outfit I saw which was a white shirt and black sweat pants. "Yes I am up, who is it?" Next thing I know I slipped on my pants that id left on the floor while struggling with my sweat pants.
And with a large slam followed by clacking footsteps I was being stood over by some green figure. The person yelled "Gumball can you hear me? Can you see me? Does anything hurt? Gumball?!" Suddenly a light was shown into my right eye then my left and then back to my right. The light was blinding. But after almost being blinded my vision cleared I realized doctor princess was the green blur in front of me. She pushed back a wisp of hair out of her face and asked me the same questions again.
"I'm fine I'm fine." I really wasn't my head was killing me. I stood up. "Why are you here?" I rubbed the back of my head and winced. Doctor Princess walked behind me and looked at the same spot. Next thing I know she's rubbing some liquid on my upper neck to the middle of my head.
"It should be fully healed in the next half hour or so." She walked back in front of me and grabbed her bag that she apparently had on my bed. "And I'm here on your orders I was told by peppermint maid you needed me a.s.a.p. I figured something major has happened." I turned to the side to think for a second then started towards the door. "I have something to show you." I slipped on my slippers that were next to the door and started out and to confirm that she was following I heard the click clack of doctor princesses' shoes.
15 minutes later

Doctor Princess gasped at her notebook. "Well this has to be a first in history! Somehow their clam-buster-nodes are the exact same level and strength." She placed a needle in Diamond and then in Fiona. "And color!" I watched the needle in Diamond turn yellow as did Fiona's. Then both needles changed multiple colors rapidly and finally stopped at blue and began to glow pink. "I think we need to look into this." Doctor Princess said amazed like.
I nodded slowly sure not to take my eyes off the girls. "Agreed". I walked out of the room to go and find my key to the room of books. Not a regular library. My mind was shaken by what I had just seen. There's gotta be a book explaining this. There's always a way to explain things, everything has a scientific explanation….. maybe not always scientific but at least an explanation. I was so focused on rushing back to my room that I almost didn't notice the light siren noise and muffled screaming.
I ran back to the room just in time to see doctor princess throw an automatic needle in Diamonds direction. Who was floating out the window and appeared to still be a sleep. The needle stopped in what appeared to be thin air but that assumption was proven wrong when a familiar voice yelled out. "Ouch, my cheek meat!" The needle was flung to the ground. And with that Diamond flew out the window.
After she did I rushed over to doctor princess. She was sitting on the floor fumbling for her glasses which were on the floor and now had a brand new crack in the left lens. I picked up the glasses handed them to her and then helped her up. "Did I hit him?" She asked as she dusted off her lab coat and adjusted her glasses.
"Yes… but what exactly did you hit him with?" I looked at the table where her materials were laid out witch was now half full.
Her eyes got large with sudden realization. "Oh no…" she shook her head and rushed towards the window. Once there she frantically dropped to her knees and picked up the needle with a dot of red at the tip of it. "Sleeping injections..." She had spoken with such devastated that I wasn't sure what she had really said at first then the light bulb turned on. Marshall was carrying Diamond and now , because he never really flies slow or close to the ground, that put her in danger. To make it worse he had been hit with a medium dose to the face which is where you get it so that it will be more effective. He was going to pass out from exhaustion, at a fast speed, while holding a fragile human.
"Should we call the guards?" Doctor Princess looked at me waiting for my say. Clearly she was feeling guilty.
I looked back to Fiona. Who else would be able to handle this? And why would Marshall even take Diamond? "Yes… we'll send them out on a search…" I thought about how terrified of Marshall they were. "Uh, but only tell them they're looking for Diamond."
With a slow nod Doctor Princess fast walked out of the room.
I walked towards Fiona who luckily was further from the recent action and brushed a piece of hair from her face. She instantly smiled and snuggled closer towards my hand. "Oh Fiona…" I sighed and walked back to the window "I hope you don't do anything stupid as usual." I spoke to the wind.
