Coincidence
Chapter 9 - How bad is it?
By Tippy
"Oh no…. CHIRO!" Nova shouted over the intercom. She stared, wide-eyed at the tattered shell of the tank. Moments ago she had felt a wave of helplessness as she watched the giant rock pound into the boy's ship, leaving it battered. No response came from the pilot.
Sprx and Antauri flew ahead, rushing to the side of their fallen comrade. The yellow monkey watched as the two connected with the ship, her horrified awe broken by the other two primates.
"Come on, you two…" Gibson urged her and Otto to follow.
Nova shuddered as she moved her foot cruiser forward, her eyes locked on the motionless tank. Please be ok…please be ok… her mind screamed as she docked with the central section of the super robot. She jumped out of her seat, scrambling down the tube chamber. Her heart pounded in her chest as fear crept into her mind, the anxiety of not knowing what was beyond the hatch taking hold. Ahead, she caught site of the entrance to the center of the robot, the metal doors sliding open to reveal darkness, illuminated my speratic sparks from exposed wires.
Nova stood in the doorway, her gaze wondering over the dark enclosure. Bright beams of light attracted her attention, the forms of Antauri and Sprx finally registering. She could see them moving towards the center console, joined by Otto and Gibson. She stepped out of the doorway, the area in the ship brightening with their presence. The pilot's seat was empty, tattered remains of the restraints strewn across the chair's back.
"Chiro?" Otto was the first to speak, but no answer was returned. Antauri moved past the control panels, pausing as he caught sight of something behind it.
Nova quickened her step as she saw Antauri move to the chair and drop to the floor. She rounded the corner and found the black monkey kneeling over an unconscious Chiro. He lay on his back against the console, his chest raggedly rising and lowering as he struggled to breath.
"Is he okay!" The yellow monkey knelt down, her eyes pleading for the boy to be alright.
"We need to get him back to Shugazoom…" Antauri stood, turning to the other three monkeys.
Nova was unable to comprehend his orders as she looked upon the boy, his tortured expression causing her heart to tear in two with anguish. His eyes were tightly shut, twitching with pain at the slightest movement of his small form. She might have wondered about the bandages already wrapped around his arm and knee if not for the urgency of getting him back home.
She felt a hand rest on her shoulder and she looked up into the calm face of the onyx monkey.
"Help me get him in the seat." She nodded to her companion, gently sliding her hands under one side of the boy, while Antauri lifted him from the other side. Carefully they placed him back in the small seat, buckling him in for the ride home. His head lulled to the side, a short moan being his only response to the pain.
SSSSSSSSSSS
"Sprx, how does it look?" Antauri stepped over to the red monkey who had been messing with wires and controls.
"It's pretty banged up, but I think we can get the thrusters up and running."
"Good, we need to hurry." He didn't say anything else as he turned to towards Gibson, pulling him aside.
"When we land, I need you to head strait for the medical room. We'll be behind you with Chiro. I'm not sure how much time we have, so we need to move as quickly as possible." Antauri's spoke matter-of-factly.
Gibson could only nod, the meaning of his teammates words echoing in his mind. Chiro might die? That couldn't happen! He was just a boy!
The blue monkey pulled himself out of his thoughts as he returned to helping repair the ship enough to get them home.
It didn't take long before the Super robot was functioning again. Sprx carefully piloted the ship back to Shugazoom, the others preparing to get Chiro off as soon as they landed.
Gibson was the first to leave, heading straight for the medical room. The others followed behind carrying the unconscious Chiro on a stretcher.
They set the boy gently on the examination table, the blue monkey already setting up the machines to examine his injuries. The others waited while the instruments when to work.
Nova felt warm tears threatening to spill as she stared as the motionless boy. She felt so helpless. How could this have happened!
She blinked back the tears as Gibson came over holding a print out. He let out a sigh before give the group a small smile. "He's going to be fine. He's got a broken arm and leg. There are a couple fractured ribs, but there's no internal bleeding. But there's something strange."
"What?" Otto said what everyone was thinking.
"Most of the injuries he sustained occur mainly in high pressure. The fractures in his ribs weren't caused by any physical damage that I can see. It's like they were almost crushed."
"That is odd, but we'll think about it later. Right now we need to get his injuries set." Antauri gave each monkey their orders and they went to work.
Nova finally felt the tears run down her cheeks as she went about doing her job and she quickly wiped them away. She grabbed the tools she was sent to get and turned to walk back to the table Chiro lay on. More tears fell down her cheeks as she looked at him. She handed the items to Gibson who set them on the different parts of the boys damaged body. She was surprised when felt a hand rest on her shoulder and turned to see Sprx.
He gave her a soft smile, "He's gonna be okay."
She could only nod as the gates that held back her tears burst open and she quietly sobbed, moving closer to lay her head on Sprx's shoulder. Hesitantly, he put his arm around her and let her cry, unsure of anything better to do.
The rest of the day went by in a blur as the monkeys worked to get Chiro's injuries wrapped up. They moved him to his room, laying him in the bed. There were monitors hooked up to him, each keeping track of how he was doing. Now that the crisis was subdued, they all could feel the stress as they took seats around the room.
Antauri had noticed how hard Nova was taking all of this. He was surprised he was still holding it together. Now all he could do was sit and stare at the motionless boy. He looked so small. He hadn't realized how much of a kid Chiro really looked like. They had all grown accustomed to his leadership skills. He seemed to act so much older than he really was. Now, with him laying there, Antauri found himself feeling extremely proud of the boy. He had taken on such a large responsibility without even one complaint. Now it was Antauri's turn to hold back the tears. He'd never cried before. It was strange how one person could change you in so many ways. He smiled, wiping a tear off his cheek. At this moment, the only thing important to him was Chiro. He didn't care about Skeleton King or any other evil out there. All he wanted right now was to be in this room with the boy who had changed all of their lives.
