A/N: Brittany gets introduced soon I promise. I'm having a hard time figuring out how exactly to introduce her. I apologize for the shortness of a chapter but the next one has a goal of 2k words, so it'll make up for it.
Chapter 2 – The Hospital
The hospital was the only one in the town, which once you consider how small the town of Lima was, isn't surprising. The building was located just a block from the home for the elderly and disabled. Santana thought that it this was because of convenience, in case the elderly needed immediate medical attention for some reason or another. She made a mental note to stop by before each shift at the hospital, since it was on the way it would only mean getting up fifteen minutes earlier than her new wake up time to make a short visit. As she neared the hospital, she figured that the people at the hospital were expecting a delinquent. She sighed before slipping into her usual scowl; usually she got weekends off from doing this.
The hospital staff was unsure what exactly to do with this apparently violent teen that was supposed to be helping out. A fast thinking resident pulled aside one of the interns and promised to let him assist in some of the next important surgeries if he agreed to watch over the youngster. Reluctantly agreeing to the proposal despite the promises, the intern showed Santana around the recovery wing of the hospital and gave her a several duties with the more lively patients. To everyone's surprise she got along quite well with all of them.
After a couple of days, Santana had figured out the rhythm and the intern, eager to get back to his duties, left her to her own devices. Each day she went home and figured out ways to be more efficient, this lead to her getting finished with her work early but she had to be at the hospital the whole time. With an hour or two left at the end of each day, she took to wandering around the hospital visiting random patients because she didn't want to take on more jobs.
That's how she found herself in the Children's Wing talking to a nine year old kid named "James" for the last fifteen minutes about X-men. They ended up arguing who was the coolest one. With her limited knowledge that she gleaned from Puck, the movies, and the many hours of boredom when surfing the internet, her opinion was Rogue or Shadowcat was the best one, although Jean what's-her-name, might have been up there had she been forced to watch X-men film trilogy. James was arguing for the fact he like the "blue fuzzy funny looking guy" Nightcrawler. All Santana knew was that she might be losing an argument with a kid a little more than half her age and decided that tonight she was going to look up some more about this Nightcrawler. She couldn't help but feel slightly relieved when the boy's mother came back to take him to visit his brother's room. After they left, she took a seat near a window and found that she actually liked talking to the little brat.
After that incident she took to wandering around the Children's Wing after her duties to visit the little dorks. The children oddly enough adored her and looked forward to her visits. These acts were noted by a nurse who worked there and reported this to her superior. It was decided that she would be permanently moved to the Children's Wing, until her time was up.
A/N: Yes I have made Puck into a closet X-man fan, deal with it. Guess who his favorite one is, if you can I'll even make an extra scene or Omake (or parody?) after the next chapter for your enjoyment about an argument they have about X-men.
Also Shadowcat from the comics (after she learns ninja) not X-men evolution, Kitty Pryde is a very good hacker and knows ninja skills (trained by Wolverine) and thus she can be kickass. And yes… I have heard of Kurt being described as a "blue fuzzy" and "funny looking" and "guy" on different occasions so I just put them together.
Cross your fingers: Hopefully I'll have the next one read over (by me... again) and edited in by tomorrow.
