Chapter 23
Coma
"What!" Randy exclaimed and came closer to look at Rachel and saw her shoulder. Rachel started running high fever and Flare didn't know what they injected in her. "I have no clue what they put in her and now she's running fever!" she said. "This is not good, Flare go get Kristy and Howard." Randy said as he put on his ninja mask. "I'll try healing her." he commented. Flare nodded and was about to leave then looked at Randy. "No. You're too weak...you'll hurt yourself." she said and flew off to get Howard and Kristy. Rachel slightly opened her eyes. Randy looked at Rachel and sighed." Don't worry we will find out who did this to you." Randy said to Rachel then quickly started to use the art of healing her but unfortunately he was weak. Rachel slightly nodded and when Randy tried to heal her she stopped him and shook her head. Howard and Kristy ran in with Flare right behind them. "What happened?!" Kristy asked. Rachel fought to stay awake. Randy looked at Kristy.
"Someone injected something in her and now she has a very bad fever." Randy replied. "It's worse than just a fever randy...she's very ill and is trying to fight off slipping into a comma..." Flare said. Rachel was fighting to stay awake but losing. Randy's eyes widened and his hands sprang back up and he continued to use the art of healing on Rachel. Rachel looked at him and shook her head slowly. Flare tried to stop him. Randy tried to ignore them as the situation seemed to pound in his mind. Rachel's eyes closed and Flare bit Randy's hand. "Gah..." Randy mumbled then lowered his head and stopped. Flare let go of his hand. "It's not a normal comma. There's an antidote like thing that would wake her." she said. "...Ok and where can I find it?" Randy said. Flare shrugged. "Maybe Viceroy...but I am not sure." she replied. Randy thought for a moment then lifted his head and looked at the wound on Rachel's shoulder.
"Hmm...It doesn't look too old." Randy said. "I wonder if Cody knows..." he mumbled. Cody wasn't far from the dinner. Flare nodded. Randy got up and headed towards the door. Flare followed him. Cody saw them. "Hey, your Cody right?" Randy asked and pretended not to know him. Cody nodded. "Hello again." he replied. Randy stopped walking. Cody turned around. Flare looked at Cody. "...Do you know what happen to the girl, Rachel?" Randy asked Cody as he walked a little closer.
Cody shook his head. "No idea...might have been one of those scrpodog things I saw earlier." he replied clearly a bit worried about Rachel. "Hmm...Listen I have a hunch that maybe Viceroy has again an Antidote that could save her... but I need your help." Randy said. Cody agreed to help but only for Rachel. Flare looked at Cody. "Hello Cody." she said and Cody smiled. "Hello Flare." he said. Randy looked at Flare and Cody. "Ok...I'm I missing something here?" Randy asked.
"Rachel managed to teach Cody how to understand me encase of emergencies." Flare replied. "Oh...right, well we better to going." Randy said and looked at Cody. Cody nodded and stood up heading towards where Viceroy and Mcfist are. Randy side glanced both ways as they walked. Flare sat on Randy's shoulder. They finally arrived where Viceroy and Mcfist were. "Ok, so this is the place?..." Randy whispered to Cody. Cody nodded. "Yeah." he replied.
Randy looked at the place and thought for a moment then looked at Cody. "Do you know this place?" Randy asked him. Cody shook his head. "Rachel is the only one who knows this place really well." "Oh...well change of plans." Randy said. "What do you mean?" Cody asked. "I mean, since you don't know this place very well...we can do sorta of a relay race?" Randy replied still thinking of a plan. "Relay race?" Cody and Flare asked at the same time. Randy shrugged and raised his hands in defiance. "Hey just an idea, like I can manage to get the antidote and give it to you and I'll watch your back as we go back to the Dinner place." Randy explained to them. Flare smirked. "I got an Idea..." she said before flying off. Cody watched her leave. Randy put his hands down and watched Flare.
(Team up! Kind of.)
