Ch.25, More Killer Droids
The medical droids ran their tests on Charlie about her stomach, and found nothing but a virus. They then prepared to start their own tests. Charlie woke up and found she was strapped down on a table and medical droid 1 standing over her.
"Well now I'm so glad you are awake," it said.
"We couldn't do anything until you woke up," said medical droid 2.
"What are you going to do?" Charlie asked.
"You'll see. Luckily we have the general to bust to come and save you, we have you all to ourselves," said medical droid 1 as it pulled out tools and picked up a scalpel. It placed it to her skin right over her heart.
"What are you doing!" cried Charlie.
"We've already have you hooked to life support. You won't die," said medical droid 2.
"It will just hurt a lot," said medical droid 1 with a slight laugh. It pushed down the blade and slowly started cutting across over her heart. Charlie screamed in pain.
"Shut her up or someone we'll hear!" snapped medical droid 1.
Medical droid 2 stuffed a piece of cloth into her mouth.
"Is the blood I.V. working?" asked medical droid 1 as he continued to cut.
Medical droid 2 looked at the I.V., "Yes, so far everything is going well."
Medical droid 1 finished with cutting, it sat down the knife and picked up another tool, "Let get started shall we?"
Just the doors opened and Grievous came into the room silently, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!"
The droids jumped and medical droid 1 dropped the tool it had to the floor. When it saw medical droid 3 with Grievous, "You Traitor!" it hissed at medical droid 3.
"Actually it's the faithful one," said Grievous.
"This girl is holding a lot of information and you don't wan to know what it is?" medical droid 1 asked Grievous.
"I do want to know, but I don't want you doing this!" he hissed at the droid.
"I'll start patching her back up," said medical droid 3. Medical droids 1 and 2 stepped back as 3 started stitching Charlie back up.
"I can't believe how weak you've become General." Said medical droid 1.
Grievous grabbed the droid, "Do you really want to find out how weak I've become? Or would you like to stay in one piece?" asked Grievous.
"When it comes to the girl, is where you are weak sir," said medical droid 2.
Grievous dropped 1 and picked up 2, "Shut up!"
"But its true sir!" cried 2.
"Do you want to stay in one piece?" asked Grievous.
Medical droid 3 finished with Charlie and pulled the cloth out of her mouth.
"Rip them both to bits!" hissed Charlie hoarsely.
Grievous started to pull medical droid 2 apart as 1 tried to run when 2 became different pieces. Grievous then grabbed it and crushed the droid in.
Charlie held her chest and tried to get to her feet alone, but medical droid 3 helped her. She looked at the droid, "I'm glade you weren't with them."
"So am I," said the droid.
"Be glad you weren't" said Grievous as he looked at them, "Now I've lost three medical droids!"
"The first one wasn't really your to being with. He was somewhat of a world guardian, he was from another world." Said Charlie.
"World guardian?" asked Grievous.
"Don't tell me over the last two years of your life you've forgotten what a world guardian was. You spied on me and Inca about it." She reminded him.
"Oh… that," said Grievous.
"I think its time you went back to bed," said the only medical droid.
"I won't argue with you there." Said Charlie.
Grievous picked up Charlie and carried her back to her room with the droid following.
Charlie watched the droid leave, but didn't fall sleep. She just laid there in bed staring at the wall.
"Are you okay now?" asked Grievous.
Charlie looked at him, "It took you bloody long enough to get in there I must say. But yes I'm fine, for the moment."
"I came as soon as I heard, but it took the medical droid a few moments to get to where I was to inform me." Said Grievous.
"Ahh I see… oww!" she grabbed her chest, "Stupid damn fuckers," she hissed then sighed.
"They're dead now," said Grievous watching her.
"Technically they were never really alive," said Charlie.
"Well they're in pieces now," he said.
Charlie smiled and shook her head.
"I'll leave you to get some rest. And I'm going to lock you in so that no one can get in," said Grievous turning to leave.
"I'm not really tired, just hurting," said Charlie.
"I still need to get back to what I was doing," said Grievous.
"And what's that?" asked Charlie.
"Nothing that concerns you," said Grievous leaving and locking the door.
"Jerk! He didn't lock that door to keep someone out, but keep me in," mumbled Charlie.
