'Dinah...everything's going to be all right. Just hang in there!' Kiya told the younger woman.
A cool hand is placed on the head wound, sending shivers of pain and pleasure up Dinah's spine.
===============
Double doors slammed open with Dinah's gurney; she's being raced down the hallway by several medical Technicians. A Velcro strap attached to Dinah's wrist has wires rising to an antenna, with one of the Technicians holding a portable gas plasma monitor. Her head is covered in bandages. Kiya is paralleling them, deeply worried.
Doctor Zheng appeared. "Vitals ?"
A Technician read the monitor. "B.P. eighty over fifty and dropping."
"Anything on the CAT ?"
"Brain waves present, but there's damage."
Doctor Zheng put up a hand to Kiya. "You'll have to wait here."
They bang through another set of doors labeled ICU – AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY, leaving Kiya in the dust.
===============
Dinah opens her eyes to find that she is lying in a hospital bed. Multiple monitors and IV's surround her as though it's apart of a cage. "Dinah, how are you feeling ?"
She looked to her left to find, Kiya, sitting beside her. "Hey...you're not asleep are you...?"
"...I'm awake...I feel like hell, but either way I'm awake..."
"Are you feeling any better now? The nurse had given you multiple IV's and wrapped your wounds while you were unconscious..."
The notion of 'wounds' causes her to examine her ribs. White gauze are wrapped across her bare chest, her rib cage and over her left shoulder. All the painkillers seem to keep her at ease as she slowly brushes her fingers against the wounds.
"...how long have I been unconscious for...?"
"It has been two days now...your status fluctuated all through last night...but here you are, alive and well..."
"She tried to kill me." Dinah muttered.
"Who ?" Kiya asked.
"Mako Satou."
"So the rumors are true. Who started the fight ?"
A cool hand is placed on the head wound, sending shivers of pain and pleasure up Dinah's spine.
