--On with the story…--
"Willow!"
She was dimly aware of someone screeching her name. Probably Kennedy, she was never far away these days. She raised a hand to her face and felt dampness under her nose. 'Not again.'
She'd tried a teleportation spell, like the one that had saved them from Glory that time. Now she had a pounding headache and blood dripping from her nose. Great.
"Willow? Are you okay? The ambulance is on its way."
She felt Kennedy lift her into her arms. It was then she realised that she couldn't see. A panic swelled up inside of her, but she pushed it back down.
"Kenn? What happened?" She whispered through the metallic taste in her mouth. More blood?
"You teleported the demon just as he was about to finish me off." She murmured.
"There's blood?"
"Yes. I think it was too much for you Willow. Oh God, it's everywhere." The first trace of worry made its way into Kennedy's voice.
"I can't see…"
There was a pause. "You're eyes are bleeding."
"Oh."
"The ambulance will be here any minute now." Kennedy promised, holding her girlfriend closer to her in the cold Chicago night as her supernatural hearing picked up the distant wail of sirens.
What seemed like forever later, they were being wheeled through Chicago General's ER.
"What happened?" One of the doctors asked in a heavily accented voice.
It took Kennedy a moment to realise he was talking to her. "We…were attacked."
He looked at her, not sure whether to believe her or not. "Any medical conditions that you know of? On any medication?"
She shook her head, her eyes never leaving Willow's bloody face. "No."
"Drugs?"
"Never."
He seemed to believe her. He gestured to one of the nurses. "Sam, could you get her cleaned up?"
"Sure."
A nurse came over and tried to take Kennedy away to see to her injuries.
"I'm fine. I won't leave her…What are you doing to her?"
Sam looked to Kovac who shrugged and nodded his consent to let the girl stay while he continued working, pushing more blood and clotting agents through Willow's body.
"I'm Doctor Kovac. At the moment we're just replacing the blood she's lost. The bleeding's slowing down and when it stops completely we'll try to find out what caused it." He explained. "She's in no life threatening danger."
"Thank God."
There were a few moments of silence as Kovac looked at the screen Willow was hooked up to. He seemed satisfied with the results. "You should get your cuts seen to."
Kennedy looked down at her arms. They were covered in scratches and bruises; she could only imagine what the rest of her looked like. Already the wound had started to knit together- the miracle of slayer healing. "I'm alright, they've already closed up and I'm a quick healer. I just want to sit with her."
He nodded, putting a clip board at the end of the bed. "Sure. We'll be moving her up to a ward soon."
On his way out he stopped by the door and beckoned Sam over to him. "Can you stay with them? Something's not right with their story; an attack would not cause that sort of injury."
Sam nodded. "I know, but the other girl's obviously been in a fight."
"Maybe. Stay with them, see if you can find anything out." He murmured. "Thank you, Sam."
She smiled at him and went back to tidying the bay next to Willow's, all the while keeping an eye on the young couple next to her.
