Wendy was in the infirmary with Porlyusica for hours, working her hardest to help the young woman Loke had brought in. Sweat was forming on the girls head as she kept activating her sky magic, again and again, following Porlyusica's advise, whilst the older healer used her magic around the sky maiden and monitored the girls vitals. Between the two of them they have been able to seal the large wound at the back as well as the one over the stomach, Now it was all a matter of the internal damage that had to be repaired and fixed.
''Enough child, you are exhausting the last of your magic'' Carla preached to Wendy from the other side of the room, she was told, more like ordered, to remain there by Porlyusica earlier.
''I can't Carla, I'm keeping the blood flowing around her body whilst it ignores the area's that Porlyusica is healing. If I stop now, her system with fail, blood will cause internal bleeding, and she will die, drowning in her own blood. She will Die right here if I stop, So I'm sorry Carla but no. I wont let her die whilst I still have magic that can help her.''
''But you will die if you exhaust your magic, Stop being stubborn'' Carla snapped back, her own worry about the young girl evident in her voice.
''ENOUGH!''
Porlyusica snapped she had had enough of the Exceed.
''I will not have to trying to get in the way of our healing cat, keep it up and I will throw you out of the room as well. Do I make myself absolutely clear?''
Carla said nothing, just scoffed at the old hag and turned to look out the window.
After another hour Porlyusica let out a weary sigh
''That's enough now child, There is nothing else we can do except monitor her and hope she lives through it. Go and rest, replenish your magic. I cannot say for certainty that we will not be needed again, so best be prepared for that. I will remain here to watch over her and I must speak to Makarov.''
With a small sigh, Wendy releases her magic and her whole form seems to slump from the exhaustion of having to use so much magic. With slow and padded steps she walks over to the door and calls out for Carla to follow her. Making her way to a spare bed in another room, Wendy collapses onto the bed and her eyes drift shut, she is asleep before Carla could even open her mouth to chastise her for using too much magic. Porlyusica remained by the unconscious female observing her, When a small, weak, and soft noise breaks her concentration.
''Mak...a...rov...Na...ka...ma.''
Master Makarov was standing in front of the infirmary door and watched as an exhausted looking Wendy hobbles past him, completely oblivious to his presence. Walking forward he enters the infirmary to see Porlyusica standing with her back to him at the side obviously writing something he could only assume could be to do with the patient.
''How is she?'' He inquires, making his presence known to the older healer.
He observes the healer as her back straightens at the sound of his voice but then her shoulders slump slightly as she turns to face him. Her face is worn and the exhaustion is clear to see,
''For now she is stable, I don't think she will wake any time soon, and she may need more help later on. I will remain here until I am satisfied that she will make a full recovery. I have Wendy resting right now but she knows she may be needed again. That child has remarkable strength of will, anyone else would have passed out from the amount of magic we have spent, She was determined to save her. I would say I don't see the point in saving so much energy saving a vile human, but then again she isn't exactly human now is she Makarov?''
She stared straight at the guild master with sharp, accusing eyes. He knew something even if he did not want to admit it to the others of the guild, she will get answers from him, After all her patient had whispered his name in her state of unconsciousness.
''I don't actually know'' Makarov admitted
''It has been at least 12 years since I last saw her, She was such a small thing, frail and lonely.''
He looked down on the child who was resting on the bed. To him she looked so different, never in his life had he imagined that small child to grow up into the woman who lay unconscious.
''She was just watching the guild many years ago, I wanted her to join, get a proper life with friends from the guild, but some vile pathetic excuse of a wizard had her and he had twisted her mind. You know when she spoke to me, she said she was already owned.''
Porlyusica's eyes snapped back to Makarov the moment he said that, the look of shock plastered on her face but hidden in her eyes Makarov could see the anger present.
''More reason to hate the humans'' She all but growled out.
He couldn't help the chuckle that left him when she spoke.
''I asked her to come back once she found a way to be free, I never thought,I never thought it would be like this. I had given up hope of her breaking free from that wretched man, because she never returned. I thought she had either forgotten or that she had perished. But here she is, not how I wanted her to come back, but I am glad she is alive. Thanks to you and Wendy. So thank-you my old friend''
''There is no need to thank me just yet, Let us wait for her to wake and then you can pay me''
Porlyusica normally would have snapped about how much she was not a healer for Fairy Tail and that she hated humans, But the way Makarov spoke about the child he once knew, she could not stop the way her chest tightened and the anger that coursed through her at his words. No child deserves to believe that they are owned. Her mind was running over so many thoughts.
According to my magic she is human, but not fully, there is something else mixed with her genes, and her magic levels are almost depleted so I need to make sure that she does not suffer from Magic Deficiency Disease. She also needs to be washed and her clothes changed, Ugh so much work.
''Send Mira up here to help wash the child as well as bring her a change of clothes.''
Makarov just nodded his head to the woman as he made his way out of the room, he had his children to speak to about all the chaos from today. With one last look at the child from over his shoulder, then he was gone. Making his way down the hall and to the balcony that hangs over the main hall.
He could hear his children talking as he got closer, some were laughing others discussing jobs, but the loudest thing he could hear was Natsu and Gray going at it like normal, but even he could tell Gray just was not as energetic towards the slayer, today was going to be a long day. When he finally stood watching over them, he took a few minutes just to observe his children, as his mind wandered back to the memory from many years ago.
Fly to the fairies, we will always welcome you
''Alright, Listen up you brats!''
