Chapter 13

When they reached the Med Bay, Blinx went in search of bandages while Finn dumped Aerrow on a bed. He then joined her, his scowl still on his face "What did you do?! If you made his injury worse-"
"Shut Up Finn! I don't have time to deal with you! Now, are there any other injuries I should know about?!"
"Not if you're gonna hurt him again there's not!" Blinx rolled her eyes and moved over to Aerrow "I'm just gonna bandage your arm to your body. Sorta like it's in a sling. Only for a little while, just as a precaution. We don't want you doing any further damage to it" he stared at her as she proceeded "Why didn't you tell me you could do this stuff?"
"You didn't ask. Besides, Piper showed me the Healing Crystal she has. It didn't seem logical to really say that I knew some stuff"

She didn't look up until she'd finished "Were there any other injuries?" he shook his head "Just bumps and bruises. I'm sorry about Finn by the way. He's usually a nice guy" Blinx looked around her "Oh is he gone? I didn't notice. Though I thought I felt fewer eyes on me." Aerrow gave a light laugh "How much of this stuff do you know anyway?" Blinx sighed in thought "Not a lot really, just basics. I'd be totally useless if anything serious happened. It's really just CPR, First Aid and what I learned from my parents"
"You said you didn't have family"
"I said I didn't have family here"
"What's CPR?"
"It's a technique used to resuscitate people who aren't breathing, there's also the Heimlich mauver but that's only used when people are choking"

Neither had noticed Radarr crawl into the room. He was staring at them strangely but eventually threw his hands up and turned to leave the room...only to be trampled by Piper as she rushed in. He whined thinking he needed a holiday away from the crazy people. "Aerrow I got the-" she stopped short when she saw Aerrow's arm "- Healing Crystal?"

"Piper! Meet the Condor's resident Doctor!" Piper looked towards Blinx as Blinx looked at Aerrow "I think General Practitioner is probably a better reference. seeing as I'm not actually a trained Doctor. But you can be my assistant" she said pointing to Piper "Hook him up to that Healing Crystal and it'll definitely heal up his shoulder better" and with that she made her way out of the room and back to her room. Now she knew it was safe she didn't need to go to the Bridge

As she entered her room, the last thing she was expecting was to hear a voice behind her saying "That was impressive" she made a noise of annoyance "Anyone else would think that was a compliment" she said turning to Finn. He was leaning on the wall next to the door with a hard accusing look on his face "So I guess you've cemented your place in the team, for now anyways" her eyes narrowed "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing really. So, you wanna explain why you bolted from the Bridge so quickly before the battle even started? Why didn't you stick around and help Stork?"
"I have my reasons. They involve not getting taken back to Cyclonia mainly" She answered plainly "Junko thought it might be that. But personally, I think there's something more to it. The undeniable fear that was plaster all over your face was hard to miss" Blinx paused for a moment. Until realisation hit like bricks "It was you I bumped into-"
"-While you were running like a Scaredy Cat from the Bridge. I know you're hiding something "Blinx" and when I find out what, I'll happily kick you of the Condor myself, from the highest point possible into the Wastelands below"
"You won't keep to that threat!" she hissed. If looks could kill, she'd be dead, then again so would he, if she had her way.

He said nothing as he left, his glare holding. Blinx could only stare at his back until her door closed 'You won't be able to keep that threat. Not if I have anything to do with it!'
