Chapter 8:
After he had eaten his meal, Nurse Fuller proceeded to checking the inside of Jay's mouth and giving him his medicine.
"Now, open you're mouth nice and wide so I can get a look at you're tonsils." she explained as she took out a rubber glove from her pocket and slipped it on.
Jay did as he was told and opened his mouth widely while sitting up against the headboard of the bed. He was wearing the same thing he had had on the time Norma, Grune and Moses came in. A black t-shirt and his normal purple star-spangled shorts. Though his shoes and jacket had been removed.
Thank God they left his hair up, he thought. If the others caught how long his MALE hair was, he never would have heard the end of it.
Nurse Fuller stuck her finger into Jay's mouth and inspected its redness that had to her attention, healed over the last couple of hours.
"Looks like you're soars have healed up." she said smiling.
Jay got a surprised look on his face as the nurse took her hand out of his mouth and pulled off the glove.
"I had soars!? What from?" he rubbed his throat worriedly thinking it was something serious, but was reconsidered when Fuller chuckled sweetly.
"The soars formed in you're mouth from all that coughing you had done in you're sleep. When you said you had coughed up blood, you only either bit at them or opened them up."
"Oh." Jay replied looking down at his stomach where he had been bandaged up while asleep. The wounds around him didn't hurt anymore, but he didn't want to look the nurse in the face for some odd reason.
Nurse Fuller eyed him while washing her hands in the sink across the room.
"You're worried about you're friend, aren't you?" she asked taking a bottle of medicine out of the cabinet above her head.
Jay looked up surprised and then sighed giving into to his thoughts. "All I know is he had to have an operation. The others wouldn't tell me anything else."
"They weren't holding back you know. I was one who had to prepare him, and I'm not even sure how things are going. Im sure to find out soon though." Fuller poured the substance of the bottle into a plastic spoon revealing a nasty red colored medicine.
"Open you're mouth again." Jay did and she slipped the medication into his mouth. Jay scoffed and gagged a few seconds then whipped his face with his wrist with a disgusted look.
"Cherry flavored!? You know, Im sixteen. You don't have to treat me like I'm nine!" As serious as Jay was, Fuller just giggled and walked back to the cupboard.
"You were there when he was brought in, right?" Jay asked anxiously.
"Yes, I was."
"Did he. . .seem bad off?"
"Not so bad. His heart rate and pulse were a bit off, but that's just something the doctors will have to resolve after they attack the poison."
Jay let out a relieved exhale when he heard they were getting rid of what had caused Senel so much pain.
He yawned and laid his head back against his pillow, which felt like heaven at the time. The medicine Nurse Fuller had given him must have made him tired, for she took up her clipboard again and made her way to the door.
"You get some more rest. When you wake up, you're friend should feel better, too."
She walked outside, shutting the door and turning off the light behind her.
Jay lay alone in the darkness thinking to himself.
If what Nurse Fuller had said was true, it would be weeks - maybe months - before Jay woke up to find Senel healthy again.
What kind of sick joke was that?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Im gonna go for a walk." Moses said getting out of his seat about an hour after he had sat back down from seeing Jay.
He began to walk towards the door when Chloe stood up as well. "Do you mind if I join you, Sandor?"
Moses shrugged and continued out the door with Chloe at his heels. The others stayed in their usual spots while another, but different from the previous nurse, walked into the room. She had long blonde hair, deep blue eyes (but was an Orerines) and a slim figure which slightly represented a super model.
"Okay!!! So you guys had somebody in surgery, so like, who was it?"
The three in the room stared at the nurse with the look they normally gave Grune. Shirley spoke up first while the others, excluding Grune, continued to look blankly at the woman.
"His name is Senel Coolidge. He was inserted into the hospital a few hours ago for a strange bite." she said getting out of her chair next.
"Yeah, is Senny gonna be okay?" Norma asked anxiously.
The blonde nurse flipped aimlessly through the papers on her clipboard with a very focuses look on her face.
"Lets see. . .lets see. . . Oh! He died!"
The three in the room (Will, Shirley and Norma) all got eyes the size of golf balls.
"WHAT!?" they all exclaimed at the same time while Grune looked out the window and giggled. Shirley fell back into the chair she had gotten up from stunned, Will was just freaked out from how the nurse laughed when she said the disturbing news, and Norma sat in her seat staring ahead at the nurse mouth ajar. Grune continued to giggle and watched as butterflies landed on the window.
"Y-you mean. . .you mean Senels. . . Dead?" Shirley squeaked shaking in the chair.
The nurse got a confused expression, then took another look at her papers.
"Oh, you mean Senel Coolidge! Heh, whoops! You're 'Senel' just got out of surgery, like, ten minutes ago! So, you can go see him now!"
An occaward silence wafted into the room and lasted a few seconds.
"Uh. . .thanks." Norma said blinking furiously.
The blonde nurse giggled again, then sashayed away while Will went to the counter to find out what room Senel was in.
"Take a good look, Shirl." Norma whispered to Shirley when they both stood up. Shirley stared at where Norma pointed, which was strait towards the blonde that had just walked off.
"That's gonna be you in four, maybe five, years!"
Shirley grunted and followed after Will.
Soon noticing the others had left her behind, Grune quickly stood up and skipped after the three making their way up the stairs and into the hallway. Giggling half the way.

The room Senel lay in was deathly quit despite the slow paced beeping of the heart monitor and the breathing machine next to the bed which made a sound like wet fog hitting hard on morning glass.
When the four arrived in the room, Nurse Fuller was pulling back the curtains, flooding the dull, white room a more golden color. Mainly from the setting sun.
"Hey, its you. The one from JJ's room." Norma claimed pointing at the raven by the window.
Fuller smiled and walked up to the divider in front of the bed, shielding Senel from his party's view.
"I suppose you're the father of this one?" She asked looking at Will.
"No, no. He's a friend." Will answered quickly while Norma snickered behind him. Fuller nodded and pulled back the divider.
The three's hearts tugged when they saw how pale Senel was.
"Oh my! Senel looks like a ghost!" Grune chirped clasping her hands together in front of her in pondering pose. Obviously her mind wasn't looking in too greatly on much of the major details of the events.
"Is he okay!? He's so pale!" Shirley asked worriedly rushing over to his side. She eyed the oxygen mask over Senel's face and how he moaned every few minutes or so.
"He's fine at the time. We just can't seem to wake him up, though. Its nothing serious, he's just out like a light."
"That's our Senny!"
Will eyed Senel for a few seconds and then looked back up at the doctor. "How long do you expect he'll have to stay here?" he asked patiently.
"Well, seeing as how worn out he is, I'd saw he'd need a few good weeks of rehabilitation. Maybe longer depending on his medications."
"Is there any permanent damage?"
"Nothing other than the scar on his left wrist."
Will breathed a sigh of relief. Senel stirred a bit and his eyes slowly opened. Shirley looked down and noticed immediately his blue eyes visible again.
"Senel!" She shrieked happily. "Nurse! He's awake!"
Nurse Fuller took a look at the heart and pulse monitors, then removed the breathing mask from Senel's face. Senel gasped slightly feeling the cold plastic slide across his face and looked around the unfamiliar room.
"Looks like you have come to. I suppose I'll leave you five to catch up then." Fuller said taking the equipment in hand and leaving the room. "By the way, you have about ten minutes of visiting time left. So you need to hurry."
With that she closed the door behind her, leaving the room uncomfortably quit again until Senel coughed a few times.
"How you feeling, Senny?" Norma asked worriedly sitting on the edge of the bed as she did in Jay's room.
"N-norma?" Senel looked around the room squinting as the light hit him fiercely in the eyes. He weakly brought his hand to his head rubbing it softly. He felt dizzy and like he had been hit on the head by a cement brick. Then he got a rather freaked out look when seeing the I.V. stuck in his wrist, but shook it off quickly for he was too weak to throw a needle hissy at the time.
"Where. . .am I?" Senel asked trying his best to sit up.
"You're in the hospital." Will answered him while Shirley helped him off his back and upright in bed.
"The hospital. . ."
"Yes, Senel. Don't you remember?" Shirley said. "You were trapped in that shed with Jay for nearly three days!"
"Jay was awake, but you were unconscious." Will told him crossing his arms.
"The shed for three days. . ?" repeated Senel again rubbing his soar head.
Norma looked at him confused. "Gee, Senny. You're starting to get a little slow."
Senel looked up at her quickly. "Aaagh! Now I remember! You made Jay and me go get something and we ended up locked up behind Will's house!"
"Okay, maybe you're not so slow. . ."
"So all this is considered you're fault, Norma." Will scowled at her with his arms still crossed.
"Uh. . .Sh-Shirl helped, Teach! Don't pin all this on me!"
"It wasn't like I 'helped' in anything! It was an accident!" Shirley snapped back.
"Yes, it was just something to brighten up the day." Grune piped happily again.
To everyone's surprise, Senel started to chuckle a little. But then turned his head away from then as a wave of pain swept over him and his laughs died.
"So, what about Jay? Was he okay?" Senel questioned calmly.
"He had sort of an infection on his stomach like you did in you're arm. But those guys took care of him before anything bad happened to JJ."
"Good. . ." sighed Senel.
"It's a good thing we found you when we did, though." Will said.
"Why?" Senel asked facing the older man.
"You had a very strong poison inside you're body. From what the doctors said, it would had been much worse than stomach bleeding and a lame arm if you were to have been prone to the poison any longer."
"Stomach bleeding?" Senel said with a confused look on his face.
"That's right you just woke up." Will said ignoring Norma's 'Well duh!' in the background. "From what I was told, the poison worked its was just enough outside of you're bloodstream and into you're stomach to cause tissue damage which made you loose so much blood and pass out so much."
Senel's face pulled into a look of disgust and he began to rub at his exposed chest where all his clothes but his boxers had been removed. Though the covers on the bed were pulled up to his abdomen.
"Looks like I put off a few of those extra pounds. . ." Senel said with a bit of humor in his tone. Will laughed lightly.
The nurse came back in the room with a white case in her hands.
"Visiting hours are over now. You'll need to come back tomorrow." She told them politely while setting the case down on the table beside the bed and reached inside.
"Where's Chloe and Moses?" Senel asked confused for a moment now noticing the lack of party members.
"C and Red went for a walk just before the dumb-ass blonde came out and told us you were dead."
"HUH!?"
"Just ignore her, she doesn't know what she's talking about." Will assured Senel.
"You were there, Teach! Don't tell me that didn't freak you out the way she said that!"
Will sighed and bonked her on the head as her left the room. Norma cringed and yelped while Senel, Grune, and Shirley laughed at how she stomped furiously out of the room.
Nurse Fuller watched as Senel waved goodbye to the others and pulled out an empty syringe needle from the box.
"Now all we need to do is give you a small injection to put you back to sleep and numb you're pain before it gets worse again." she explained filling the needle with a clear liquid from a bottle on the counter.
"In. . .injection!?" Senel felt weak immediately and was pushed back down on the bed gently by the nurse who proceeded in giving the shot to him by the neck.
Senel would have normally fled from his worst fear, but was too weak and could barely move anyway. So he let the older woman prick him with the cold metal on his neck above the shoulder blade.
While the others made their way back to the waiting room, a loud pitched scream echoed down the hall.
The three all shook their head as they realized what had happened and how sad it still seemed to them how someone who fell off a sixty story building, fought monsters five times bigger than him, stood up to some of the most bulk enemies, and took on the Raging Nerifes could be scared of something as small as needles.
