Anyway "Onward and outward" I don't know where that's from I just know I've heard it ok here we go.

Chapter 5
Moments To Remember

Neal, for the second time in less than two weeks, ran to Kel's aid. The difference this time was that if he couldn't help her there would be nobody else to help her. Why can't Kel just stay out of trouble Neal thought. If she keeps getting hurt I'm going to be doing nothing but worry, and I'm too young for worry lines.
The crowd around Kel in the healer's wing, where she had been moved, parted for Neal. Neal examined Kel putting his hand on her forehead. Kel's forehead was on fire. Kel groaned her hands clutching her stomach even tighter.
Green fire spilled from Neal's hands, spreading over Kel. Using his magic to find what tormented her body. Examining her stomach he saw the problem immediately. Kel's appendix was inflamed.
Neal turned to the group of servants and Dom. "You two move Lady Kel into that room. Set her on the table," he said pointing at two servants before turning to Dom, "Her appendix is inflamed. It can't be healed. She needs surgery. I don't know if I can do it, but I'm going to try. I'll need you to help me though."
"I'll do my best to help, but I'm no healer," Dom replied his voice cracking.
"Good. Go over and get into that," Neal said pointing a crossed the room at a white smock, "Then scrub your hands up and meet me in there with Kel."
Neal went over to a small table, and grabbed a tray full of shiny instruments needed for the operation. He set it beside Kel, and then joined Dom getting ready.
Neal put Kel into a deep sleep. Then he nervously, and ever so carefully used a small blade to cut the right side of Kel's stomach. Slowly blood spilled from the newly made cut. Neal delicately cut again deeper this time.
Neal handed the blade to Dom saying, "I'll need you to hold that open."
Dom gently parted the layers of skin. Gods I hope Neal knows what he's doing, Dom thought as Neal gingerly reached into the opening.
Sweat rolled down the sides of Neal's face as he cautiously pulled the object of Kel's pain out of her. "Put this in the jar with the liquid in it," he said handing the bloody organ to Dom.
Neal's green fire enveloped Kel as he healed the damage he had done to her stomach. Finally finished, Neal let out a sigh of relief. Wiping his forehead, Neal examined Kel, checking her vitals.
Yuki who had been pacing outside the operating room grabbed a pale and sweaty Neal into a hug. "How is she? Is Kel going to be alright?" Yuki asked her terror for her friend's life showed through all her Yamani training.
Neal looked at her saying, "She should be fine." Seeing that Yuki had been crying he wiped away a tear asking, "How long were we in there?"
"Almost four hours," Lord Raoul said stalking into the room. "Dom you don't look very good."
As if in a reply Dom ran over to the nearest container hurling. Raoul laughed and teasingly said, "I never knew you were squeamish, Dom."
"I'll never let you live this down, Dom. I bet once your squad hears about this they'll say the same," Neal commented a grin crossing his weary face.
"Yuki, I think you should get your beloved Meathead out of here before I'm forced to hurt him," Dom said glaring at his green-eyed cousin.
Yuki led Neal away as servants began to move Kel to her rooms. Raoul noticing Dom yawn told him he had better get some rest. Dom argued a moment then obeyed thinking, why do the Gods hate me?
This is getting to be silly. Me waking up to someone looming over me, Kel thought as she opened her eyes. This time Dom was leaning over her.
"Oh King of Pukers, where are you Almighty Hurler?" Neal drawl came from the hall.
"In here your Meatheadedness," Dom replied scowling at what Neal had said.
As Yuki and Neal came in Kel said, "Neal, what did you call Dom? And why?"
Neal helped Kel sit up before stating with an evil snicker, "My perfect sergeant cousin apparently has a weakness. After we took out your appendix he hurled into the nearest chamber pot."
Kel hearing this giggled. Then seeing Dom's face said, "I'm sorry Dom, but it is funny."
"No it was hilarious, I was there," Raoul said showing up in the doorway unannounced once again. Dom turned a bright red. He was obviously embarrassed.
Yuki walked over to Dom carefully comforting him. Dom looked up at Yuki and a passion filled his eyes. His red tint became even brighter.
Did I just see that Kel thought to herself? It can't be, Yuki loves Neal, and Dom had seemed almost to like me. He can't like Yuki. I must have seen that wrong.
Kel glanced at Neal, who apparently had seen the same exchange of passion too. Just from looking at her best friend she could tell he was thinking the exact same thing as her. Could Dom and Yuki secretly be lovers?
Raoul broke the unnoticed silence by saying, "Who wants to help Kel get back on her feet by taking her out to dinner? I'll pay."
With the last words Neal and Dom ran over to Raoul saying at the same time, "Come on big fella, what are we waiting for?"
"Wait for us," Kel called getting up with Yuki's help. Kel dressed quickly. Then she and Yuki ran after the trio of mischievous men.

A/N Okay I had this written out on paper on Sunday but I only get a half an hour a day on the computer so it took me until now to get it all typed up. I have started chapter six but that's on paper too so I have to type that up too later. I think this was just a filler chapter but you people can be the judge of that. Please review my thank yous will not be in the next chapter they can wait so that I don't make it a habit to keep you people from the chapters. Bye Bye.
