When I said I was working on it I meant it'd be up ten minutes later I guess lol. Here you go guys.
Lights. Bright, white lights are the first thing she saw.
Then the room came into focus. Grace didn't recognize it. But she could tell it's in the temple on Coruscant, from the lights on the ceiling.
That, and the Jedi healer standing next to her bed.
They smiled softly, "Good morning Padawan Ream. How are you feeling?"
And then it hit her. Ventress, her squad, she must have passed out-
"I- What happened?"
"I believe your troopers snuck back in and got you out." The healer helped her sit, and poured her a glass of water. "Master Tii has been waiting for you to wake. I will send her in."
Grace just nodded, still too confused, and tired, to protest or ask questions.
The healer left, and not a moment later, her master steps in. It's the least calm, the least collected, Grace has ever seen her.
"Master? What happened?"
"Your Commander told me what happened." Master Tii sat on the bed beside Grace, and took her hand. "You insisted upon dueling Ventress, to hold her off so your men could escape. You were injured, but Commander Fin sent your medic and Captain Van back to fetch you."
"Patch." Grace responds. "The medic's name is Patch. And, how badly was I injured Master?"
She's starting to remember more now. The excruciating pain, her moment of anger.
"It is easier to show you."
Her master stands, and careful flips back the covers.
Grace's breath catches in her throat.
"You will be able to walk just fine, and the healers expect you to be able to return to the battlefield in a month or so."
Grace's hands began to shake, and she stamps down on her rising anger. That, is what the healers are worried about, well, probably what the council is worried about. Of course.
From halfway between her hip and her knee, to the tip of her toes, her left leg is metal. Mechanical.
That, is what Ventress did.
Again, leave a review if you like it! There will probably be another part to this oneshot.
