Welcome back to guys :)
Thank you to all the viewer's and reviewers in the last chapter :D
I'm super sorry for the long wait, very busy now, but I didn't want to keep you guys waiting!
Alright here is chapter 12 enjoy :D
When the hornet came to a halt in front of the clinic, Paul stopped the engine, and looked outside his window. He could see his fellow friends doing what they normally did around town. Paul glanced at Lightning or where Lightning was supposed to be sitting. He was gone.
A sudden panic came in Paul's chest, he stepped out of the hornet, not bothering to close the door behind. His head dashed side to side, but still no site of Lightning anywhere. He jogged to the passenger side, and saw Lightning crouching down in front of the clinics door. He breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over towards him.
"Gosh Lightning you gave me a scare there..."
Paul noticed that Lightning wasn't even moving from his spot. He crouched beside him, and saw what Lightning was looking at. Lightning was looking at a very mysterious looking rock, unlike anything he had ever seen. Half of it was a bright red and the other half was a navy blue. The colors blended in the centre making it look purple.
Paul saw Lightning grab the rock in his little hand, and stared at it, flipping it now and then. Paul started to think Lightning must have been a very curious boy, if he was this focused on something like a rock. He looked down at his watch, and thought it was time to head in. Even though it was summer here in Radiator Springs, the evening's got quite chilly.
Paul thought it would be best to take Lightning inside, and take care of that bruise, then head over to the townsfolk and introduce the newest member of their town. He tapped Lightning's shoulder which finally caught the attention of the little red head.
"Alright Lightning let's get inside and take care of that wound. Then we can head into town."
"Can I take this pretty rock too?"
"Of course, it's yours to keep."
"Really?!"
Paul gives a simple nod in agreement. To which Lightning jumps up in happiness, and gives a tight hug to him. Paul smiles back, and stands up picking up Lightning as well. He quickly jogs to the hornet, and takes the keys out, closing and locking the door behind.
Paul walks up the steps to the clinic door, and enters inside. He puts Lightning on the kids checkup table -which hadn't been used for quite awhile now- and grabbed a bunch of materials.
He then starts his work by looking closely at the wound, then applying a ointment. Lightning kept moving his arm. Paul thought about maybe Lightning wasn't able to sit still in one place for a while. While wrapping the gauze bandage around the wound, thoughts about Lightning started popping in his head.
'I just brought Lightning here, and don't even have any idea of when he was born. Heck I don't even know if he is allergic to anything.'
Paul snapped out of his thoughts when he heard a stifled yawn. He looked up at Lightning, and saw him getting slightly drowsy. Paul cut the access gauze and taped the end down. He then straightened himself up stretching his arms.
"Alright Lightning, do you wanna go into town?"
The drowsiness on Lightning's face vanished, and was replaced with energy.
"Of course Doc, let's go!"
Lightning jumped of the checkup table, and landed right on his feet. He gave a chuckle seeing how energetic the boy had become all of a sudden. Paul came up to him at picked him up, he didn't want Lightning running around town. He opened the clinic door when a sudden cold breeze hits him and Lightning, and then feels Lightning's body shiver.
He stepped back inside, and grabbed his jacket. He placed Lightning in it so that Lightning was inside the jacket, and pressed against his chest, and that his little head peeped out from the top so he could breath. Paul stepped outside and made his way to town.
"I don't want you to run around here okay, it gets dangerous just stick with me."
"Okay Doc."
Paul walked over to the only gas station and café in town, it was called Flo's V8 Café. He headed towards the crowded table where all his townsfolk were sitting. The town was empty with no costumers because of this place being taken of the map, but it was still pretty awesome to live here.
Paul didn't know why, but he didn't feel nervous at all about introducing Lightning. He stepped a good 6 feet away from the crowded table, with people. Different languages being heard, throughout the folk.
"Hey, how's it been today?" He said in a voice so that everybody could hear him clearly over the loud conversation that was happening.
Everybody turned around, and giant smiles appeared on everyone's faces. Their faces went into confusion and shock, mere seconds after noticing that Doc didn't come alone.
What will the towns people say? Find out next time...
Sorry guys for the extremely long wait, I have been getting quite busy, BUT I got some time to at least write something. I know its short, but the next chapter I guarantee will be longer!
