Once the humans had left, Nurse Green turned to Danny. He'd closed his eyes again.

"Danny, stay awake for me. I need to assess the wound in your ghost form first. Then you can rest," Nurse Green urged him. Danny opened his eyes and nodded slowly.

"This is going to hurt a lot, but I need to remove the sword. Try to stay awake," Nurse Green warned as she turned to the sword impaling Danny. He nodded again and gritted his teeth, ready to handle the pain. It couldn't be worse than getting stabbed had been right?

He was wrong. It was ten times as painful. He screamed in agony as the sword was eased out of his body. Danny nearly wanted the ghost to just rip it out but he vaguely realised that she was trying to avoid making any more damage. Unfortunately the sword couldn't be made intangible for some unknown reason. Then the pain lessened slightly and he heard a clatter as the sword was dropped on the stone ground. Without the sword to stop the bleeding, the wound was flooded with ectoplasm and the puddle grew larger even faster than before. Nurse Green pulled her large bag over to her and quickly withdrew a bundle of gauze and pressed it down on his wound. He whimpered in pain but was too weak to move away.

Nurse Green looked sadly at her patient and then pulled his arm to his wound.

"Apply as much pressure as you can. I'm going to turn the area around your wound invisible to get a better look at how deep it is and how much damage has been done," Nurse Green explained and Danny pressed down on his wound. He yelped at the pressure but fought through the pain and did as she asked. She nodded to him and placed a hand on his body and turned him partially invisible. She cast an expert eye over the wound and then realised that the sword had gone all the way through. She needed to address the wound through his back as well but Danny would have to move for her to do so. Something he couldn't do as he was so weak. If he was conscious, moving him would cause him a lot of pain.

She bit her lip and nodded to herself.

"Stay still, and keep pressure on that wound. I'm just going to get someone to help me," Nurse Green informed him.

"I'm not going anywhere," he whispered with a slight smile. Nurse Green smiled warmly at him. He was incredibly strong willed. Nurse Green quickly ran out of the room and spotted Jazz and her parents and Bianca sitting on the ground.

"Has something happened? We heard his yell," Maddie asked concerned. Nurse Green shook her head.

"That's not why I'm here. I need a helper. Danny is going to pass out any minute but I need help in bandaging his wounds," Nurse Green explained to them quickly. Maddie got to her feet.

"Just tell me what to do," she replied sternly. Nurse Green smiled.

"I wouldn't ask if I could help it. Thank you. Come in quickly," Nurse Green retorted softly and led the way into the throne room.

Nurse Green rushed back to Danny's side. He wasn't applying enough pressure to his wound. His white glove was stained green and his face was pale and drawn. Nurse Green fell to her knees and pressed down on his wound. He hissed in pain. Maddie joined her. She instantly stroked Danny's face and began to soothe him like only a mother could.

"Apply pressure here…" Nurse Green ordered.

"Call me Maddie. Like this," Maddie replied and pushed down on the wound. Danny moaned. Nurse Green nodded then pulled out another bundle of gauze and turning her arm intangible pressed the second bundle on his wound through his back. Danny groaned again before relaxing. White light flashed as he reverted to his human form.

Maddie gasped in fright.

"It's alright. I can still treat him. I examined the wound while he was in his ghost form. I know what I'm dealing with. I'll double check to ensure there isn't a difference in his human form, but I should be able to help him either way," Nurse Green reassured her. Maddie nodded slowly.

"Keep applying pressure. I'm going to move him so both of us can reach his wound on his back. The sword went all the way through. Both wounds need to be kept under pressure," Nurse Green explained, noticing the Maddie wasn't applying as much pressure as before. The green puddle of ectoplasm was suddenly streaked with red and Danny's blood mixed with it as Nurse Green carefully manipulated Danny into a better position.

She told Maddie to apply pressure to Danny's second wound as the ghost pulled dressings and bandages out of her large medical bag. Nurse Green quickly and expertly dressed both wounds and wrapped bandages around Danny's middle, turning her or Danny intangible to do so at times. Once the wounds were bandaged Nurse Green turned Danny's top intangible and pulled it away. It was stained with blood and ectoplasm. Particularly on the back. Nurse Green hadn't removed it before, because it hadn't been a problem. But now, it was. Together Maddie and Nurse Green moved Danny away from the red and green puddle of his blood and Nurse Green waved Maddie away.

"Thank you Maddie, I can handle the rest. I'll not ask you to be here for the rest," Nurse Green informed the mother.

Maddie wanted to argue but knew that Nurse Green wouldn't have it. Seeing Danny bleeding so much and in pain was hard for Maddie. It would be hard for any mother. Maddie wordlessly walked out of the room, clutching Danny's stained shirt in her hands. Nurse Green would help him. Maddie had to believe that.

So, yeah, bit gory but what did you expect when he's been impaled with a sword.

Let me know what you guys think of the story.

Anyway, until the next chapter.
