The team apart from Tanya and Mallory, were waiting outside the Infirmary.
Dive had tears in his eyes, Duke was staring off into space, and Wildwing was
pacing like a madman in front of the door to the Infirmary.
"There was so much blood" Duke whispered, closing his eyes
Wildwing stoped his pacing and looked at him. "What?"
"Wing, you saw all the blood that she lost, maybe we are too late to
save her" Duke said looking up at Wildwing. Wildwing had had enough.
"Don't say that!!! Don't even think it!!!! I'm not going to let her die like
that!!" Wildwing yelled, not wanting to hear Duke.
"Wing!! Calm down! This isn't helping Mallory!!" Dive cried trying to calm
down his brother.
Thats when Tanya came out of the Infirmary. Everybody looked at her with pleading
glances.
"There is nothing more I can do until she wakes up" Tanya said looking down at the
floor. The team grew silent. Tanya continued. "Thats if she wakes up at all"
"I'm gonna go see her" Wildwing said as he walked past Tanya and into the Infirmary.
"Why would Wraith target her?" Grin spoke up
"Maybe he saw her as the weakest member of the team, or he saw her as the heart of the
team" Duke suggested.
"Is Wildwing gonna be ok?" Tanya asked
"I don't know Tanya, I don't know" Nosedive said as he shook his head.
"I fear that if Mallory doesn't survive neither will Wildwing" Grin said as tears
rolled down his cheeks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~In the Infirmary~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wildwing walked slowly into the Infirmary. He walked towards the bed which Mallory was
lying on.
'She looks so peaceful' he thought to himself. He took a seat beside Mallory and grasped
her hand in his.
"Hey Mal" he said, trying to sound cheerful.
"Look Mal, don't die on us, we need you.....I need you....just don't give up on us now...
please...don't leave me" Wildwing started to cry. He wanted with all his heart for her to
open her eyes and comfort him. Wildwing soon cried himself to sleep, dreaming of Mal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The next night~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wildwing spent every waking hour with Mallory. Praying that she would wake up.
His wish came true.
Mallory slowly opened her eyes. She tried to sit up but the pain in her shoulder was
too great. She laid back down and discovered someone had their head on the bed. She looked
over and saw Wildwing asleep next to her. She smiled and moved some stray hairs from his
face. That made him stir in his sleep. He soon opened his eyes and looked around sadly.
"Whats the matter soilder?" a tiny voice came from the bed.
Wildwing nearly jumped out of his feathers. "Mallory!!!" he yelled as he hugged her
"Wing! There is alittle thing called air that I need to breathe" she laughed as he let go.
"Sorry, I'm just happy to see that your ok" he smiled
"I'm happy to see you too" she smiled back
"You need your rest" he said
"Not yet, I want to see my friends first" she laughed
"As you wish" he said as he pulled back her covers and carefully picked her up.
He walked through the door of the Infirmary with Mallory in his arms. Wildwing walked into
the Rec. room and saw everyone had thier heads down.
"Hey guys!! Look who rose from the dead!" he yelled, trying to get everyone's attention.
Everyone's head shot up and looked at Mallory in Wildwing's arms. Nosedive fell out of his
chair in shock.
"Mallory!!! Your ok!!!" Tanya screamed. Mallory suddenly felt very weak and used Wildwing's
shoulder as a head rest.
"I guess you could say that" she said slightly above a whisper.
"The only thing that matters to is that you are still alive" Duke said coming over and giving
Mallory a tiny hug. The only thing that the ducks didn't know was that their problems were
just begining.
