15 minutes later, St. Vincent's Hospital*
The car was going as fast as it could. A quarter of an hour later Bluey and Bandit were in the hospital. Several doctors fought for their lives. From the room where they were lying, shouts of "DISCHARGE!" were heard every half minute, followed by an electric crackle.
Next to the room, Mr. Stroganov, Mitchell, Chilli and Bingo were sitting on the same bench. Everyone had terrible faces, they were worried about the fate of father and daughter.
- Mr. Stroganov, -Chilly said, -you said Mitchell never had any victims during his magic tricks.
The doctor looked at her with a grin and a little surprise.
- Excuse me,-he began, -at first, these two aRe not victims at all! Unlike you, I hold my fists foR both of ouR guys!
- Besides, -Mitchell added, -I warned you and Bluey that she was going to pass out!
- But then you said she would survive! And where is she now? -Chilly objected.
- I like it! Ivan, did you hear that? I freed her family from danger, and she's also angry!
- That's it! It's high time to depRive you of youR parental rights!
- WHAT DID YOU SAY?!
A serious altercation could have started between these three, but at exactly 3 p.m. the room door opened. Anthony Edvardsson , already familiar to us , came out and solemnly said:
- We got them out!
There were very loud shouts all over the floor, as if Bandit's favorite rugby team had made a touchdown in National Cup final.
Everyone forgot about the differences, began to cry, smile and hug.
When they burst into the room to look at the patients, they saw the following picture:
Bluey and Bandit were lying on different couches, both were connected to sophisticated medical devices showing that their condition was normal. Bandit lay there and smiled. Chilli and Bingo immediately ran to hug and kiss him. This made him smile even wider.
- Now I can definitely be considered immortal, -he joked, -since I've already been taken out of "that" world twice.
In response to such wit, Chilli gave him a slap on the head back.
As for Bluey, when they approached her, she didn't say much.
- Three... Years... -she said softly and listlessly, and immediately fell on the bed. She fell asleep. It was obvious that she was very washed up.
Bluey woke up already in her room. It was about 7 p.m. When Bluey went to the kitchen, the whole family was already waiting for her. Bandit, Chilli and Bingo were sitting at the table and having dinner. They were happy to see their daughter and sister healthy and in a good mood. It's safe to say that it was one of the best evenings of their lives. The whole family is in full force, everyone is in a great mood, eating, talking, laughing. It seemed that now they would always be happy, and no obstacle would stand in their way.
But it only seemed...
Three years later*
May 1, 2028.
Bluey is coming home from walking. She has only a month of study left. She was one of the contenders for gold medal. She studied well, there was no doubt that she would enter one of the main universities in the country. She already imagined warm summer days, how she and her mom and dad would go to the resort, how she would be awarded a certificate ...
She approached the pedestrian crossing. The light turned green for her. Bluey calmly walked along the zebra crossing, humming a cheerful song.
Meanwhile, a large black sedan was driving not far from her. The car owner was driving and talking on the phone at the same time. Sedan loomed on one side of the road, then on the other. It's speed was quite high. He was driving straight at Bluey. Neither she nor the driver saw each other.
There was a collision.
Bluey took off from the impact and stayed in the air for about two seconds. Then, crashing into the asphalt several times, she fell on it. She lay almost motionless. The whole body was bruised, a huge scar appeared on the forehead, the left leg was dislocated, several teeth fell out. But Bluey was still conscious.
She was immediately taken to the same central hospital. Doctors tried to save her for a long time, gave her injections, stitches, connected her to a dropper and a ventilator.
However, 3 days later, at exactly 3 p.m., all devices began to emit a monotonous, quiet, endless squeak ...
The injuries were not compatible with life ...
Bluey Heeler died ...
Only four months didn't live up to her admission, didn't study the remaining month at school, and she didn't survive until her coming of age (her birthday was May 17).
Tragically died in the prime of life ...
it is not necessary to describe how Chilli and Bandit felt when they know this shocking news.
The funeral was scheduled for the 6th. A lot of dogs came to take Bluey off on her last journey: the Heeler family in full force (20 members at least), a lot of friends of the deceased, her teachers, educators... Even Ivan Stroganov, who was already retired, came to honor the memory of one of his patients.
Absolutely everyone cried at the farewell ceremony. Both women and men, girls and boys. It is understandable - the most beautiful, intelligent and kind member of the Heeler family is gone forever...
Her coffin was carried like Stalin's coffin. Bluey was buried in a cemetery not far from her house.
The wake was long. Everyone gathered talked a lot about Bluey. Everyone praised her and honored her. And only when Bandit's turn came, he confessed to everyone one terrible truth. In fact, HE was supposed to die (according to the contract with demon, he had three years of life left), but Bluey sacrificed herself during the expulsion ceremony. She gave her life to Dad to make him happy.
She died, but died a real hero. We will always remember her as one of the sweetest, most beautiful, intelligent, and most importantly, courageous dogs in the history of animation ...
THE END
