Note: first fanfic, will improve as I go along, I have been a gamemaster on my past RP site so the action should be good, and I do not own Ben 10 or anything that is remotely like Ben 10.

AUTHOR'S NOTE OF GLORY: Finally! Out of the Earth Trial! Cannon Bolt shall make his appearance in the next chapter. Note: since I update these last two chapters so recently…you might have missed the last chapter of the Earth Trial.

"So what's the verdict on Group A?"

"Team A?"

"Yes."

"Hmmm…well…for Team XLR8…one was slightly sick but now he is alright. The others in that group are alright except for one that had a slight cut in her leg."

"Okay…and Team Diamondhead?"

"Hmmm…as far as I can tell…that team was one of the only teams who hardly got hurt at all. In fact, one of them looked like she was sleeping for a great period of time."

Snort.

"Of course! They have Diamondhead with them! Anyways…last team?"

"The last team? Oh! The disorganized team…well…as far as I can tell…they did the worst. One is presumed dead, one has poison burns all over him and the other has many broken appendages and 2nd and 3rd degree burns."
"Heh."

"Sir? Is it wise not to have any of them being treated? Some of the students that came back had to leave the camp because we wouldn't give them aid."

"I'm surprise you question the head Mineralist! This test was a test for endurance, her orders were that no one would be treated for aid until a week has past from the test. It has to prove who is strong enough to wait for the aid…or weak enough to leave for it."

"Sir?"

"What?"

"Did…she leave?"

"Who?"

"Uh…Stinkfly?"

"Pheh! She's as stubborn as a wild animal! Do you think she'll leave?"

"Sir…?"

"Yes."

"Our medics have examined her and said that she will soon die if she is not treated."

"…"

"Sir?"

"I'm not the one who decides her fait…she is."

"Er…right sir."

-----------------------------

Damn medics.

Stinkfly hobbled through the dense forest. Her wing was still bent and her burns hurt like crazy. Stinkfly breathed heavily as she clambered through the forest. Normally, walking in a forest would calm her down and make her feel better.

But not today.

She stopped and rested on a log, she was so tired. She laid her head upon the log, she winced however as the burns rubbed against each other. Carefully, she rolled onto her back and looked into the sky.

"Oh damn," she said to herself, "damn, damn, damn, damn, damn, damn, damn."

She thought the pain would go away but instead it grew stronger. Not only that but she was beginning to feel weaker and weaker as the minutes passed by.

But suddenly she didn't feel any pain. She felt…sleepy. She didn't know why but she smelt something really alluring that was making her eyes droop. Her tense body relaxed and her wings began to sag lazily. What was that smell?

Oh yes, honey.

Stinkfly fell asleep.

-----

Stinkfly very slowly woke up. She had the dim feeling that someone was wrapping something around her right, bottom leg. She also had the feeling that someone was putting cream on her body.

Cream…

"PERVERT!" screamed Stinkfly. Her reflexes and senses suddenly went into hyper drive as she bolted upwards with a scream.

"Calm down!" said a voice.

"Get your hands off of me!" yelled Stinkfly whose eyes were still closed.

"It's alright, it's alright."

Stinkfly opened her four eyes and saw four eyes staring right back at her.

A large humanoid creature with red skin and four muscle packed arms was right by her side. Shock to see something that she did not expect to see, Stinkfly was speechless.

"I…I…I…I"

The alien smiled again, "My name is Four Arms, I'm a doctor."

Stinkfly was able to recover from the shock and was able to speak sensibly again.

"Are you a medic? Are you a professional?"

Four Arms turned around and got out a roll of bandages, he then faced her again and said, "I'm afraid not, I'm only a student in the art of healing creatures."

"Do you have a professional teacher?"

"Well…no…but-"

That was all the encouragement that Stinkfly needed.

"Get, me, out, of, HERE!"

She tried to move but couldn't, she looked down and saw that that there were straps holding her down. Stinkfly looked at the straps and her eye stalks widened. Now paranoid, she started screaming loudly.

"RAPE! RAPE! RAPE!"

"Calm down!" said Four Arms who was looking worried.

"RAPE!"

Four Arms frantically began to look for something, he then ran to a nearby desk and pulled out a jar that was full of a thick, golden liquid. He hurriedly ran back to Stinkfly and held the jar under her face. Instantly, Stinkfly began to calm down and her breathing returned to normal. After a minute Stinkfly looked at him and said, "What are you planning to do?"

Four Arms smiled.

"I plan to heal you, and I certainly don't want to rape you."

He set the jar of honey next to her and took out a small machine. He then attached the machine to one of her limbs. A machine began to emit a steady beep.

Stinkfly looked at the machine and back to him.

"How can I be certain you can heal me? How do I know you won't mess up?"

Four Arms looked at the machine and said, "Pulse normal."

"Did you hear what I said?"

"I did, I did."

Four Arms turned around and once again got the bandages back out. He then walked back to the table and very carefully, began to wrap the bandages around one of her appendages. Without looking at her he said,

"Your name is Stinkfly, you come from the planet Swampus. There are many species on that planet and your kind is one of them. Your species name is Noxious Toxist, though outsiders normally call you "The Flys." Your type was descended from the insect family and have evolved into an intelligent species. One of the marks of showing intelligence from your species is that you have built a culture, a religion and a government."

Four Arms looked at the pulse monitor and back at his work.

"Since your species has a tough exoskeleton, hardly anyone can find out what your pulse or blood pressure is just by their hands. You need a machine that is highly sensitive that can detect the faintest blood movements within your first body."

Stinkfly was impressed but didn't show it.

"Pray to the Life Creator that I'm not your first patient."

Four Arms got done with one of the legs and moved to the next.

"No you are not, I have done this many times before and all of my patients have come out better than before."

Stinkfly relaxed.

"What was that cream you had put on my body earlier?"

"Oh that?" said Four Arms who just got done with another leg and was moving to an arm, "That was a cream to ease the pain and to increase the healing process of your burn wounds. I must say, in all my years of studying…I have never seen anything quite as serious as that."

Stinkfly thought of Heatblast and her anger swelled again.

"Calm down," said Four Arms.

"What?"

"Calm down. Whatever your thinking it is not helping your body."

He pointed a red finger towards the monitor.

"The pulse increased somewhat just now. In order for me to help you, you need to be calm."

Stinkfly coughed.

"That's easy for you to say."

"Flip over."

"What?"

"Flip over. I got to repair your wing."

Stinkfly looked at her just bandaged arms and legs and agreed. Carefully, she flipped her dainty body over so that she was laying on her stomach. Four Arms then took some odd instruments and began to operate her wings. Eager to pass the time, Stinkfly said,

"So I take it it was you who set the honey out for me."

"Yes, as a matter of fact. When I saw you stumbling around in the forest I knew you were wounded. I knew that you needed to be treated right away, so I got Wildmutt-"

"Wildmutt?" she interrupted.

"Yes, Wildmutt. My faithful pet who has one of the sharpest noses around. Anyways…I got him to get some honey to knock you out. Honey is suppose to be a soothing drug for your kind. It is also advised that some should be near a patient in case they are in an operation."

As the conversation moved along, Stinkfly grew more and more impressed of this young doctor. She couldn't help it that he was doing a fine job patching her up. All the while…he was still a male and he could be asking for sex in the end.

PING!

Four Arms stopped. He turned around and headed to another different kind of machine. He began to look at the monitor up and down and side to side. After 45 seconds he said, "Well that's a sticky wicket."

"What is?"

Four Arms turned around and face her.

"Seems you have a deadly disease."

"WHAT!"

"Yes…but not to worry…it can be taken care of with a vaccine."

"Oh good."

"Trouble is…it's going to be a shot."

"WHAT!"

"And this all of your body is protected by that exoskeleton…I'm afraid it will have to be in the mouth."

"WHAT!"

Stinkfly tried with all her might to get out of the stretcher, however, the straps were holding her down tight.

"Not to worry!" said Four Arms getting out a large shot, "This won't hurt a bit!"

He approached Stinkfly slowly with the shot in one of his hands.

"You better not…!"

"Afraid so…however…I'll use the honey to calm you down!"

Four Arms grabbed the honey jar and set it up next to Stinkfly. Instantly, Stinkfly began to calm down and feel very sleepy. She was dimly aware of the fact that her mouth was getting a shot. In the background she heard Four Arms' voice.

"That's a good girl."

I am a good girl. I'm such a pretty girl!

However, this girly feeling went away as Four Arms took the honey away. Instantly, pain seared into her mouth like a wild fire. Stinkfly screamed in agony as she tried to get out of the stretcher.

"Now," said Four Arms who was taking off his gloves, "I want you to make sure you don't over use the wings. I also want you to get plenty of sleep and to drink lots of water."

After Stinkfly stopped screaming, Four Arms unbuckled the straps and Stinkfly got up slowly. She looked at him straight in the eye and said, "Since you saved my life and saved me a great amount of pain. I will not spit acid all over your face."

She turned around and got off the table, before taking off she said, "However, if you try to seduce me next time…I'll kick your ass so high up you'll have to take off your shirt in order to take a shit. Good day."

Stinkfly then flew off into the forest. Four Arms breathed a heavy sigh of relief and sat down on a chair. With a queasy laugh he thought,

My first patient.
