[spoiler]Sorry for the AFK.
Been recovering from a strenuous weekend.[/spoiler]
[b]Medical Wing, Overwatch Central Command Complex. (The Triple C)[/b]
[u]Location: Unknown[/u]
[b]The silence of the medical bay is rent by a scream. The scream echoes for a moment before it fades to below the drone of the air scrubbers.
Behind the encircling curtains of the sole occupied bed in the room, a woman examines the remains of her body.[/b]
"Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit."
[u]Calm down!! You're starting to act like me!![/u]
[i]It's fine. At least we only lost an arm and a leg.[/i]
"ONLY AN ARM? A LEG?!?"
[b]The woman continues to converse with herself as she frantically checks her body with only one hand.[/b]
"Right arm, still mine. Power gauntlet.... Still active.... Left leg...."
[u]So what's up with our right leg just sitting there? And our left arm too.[/u]
[i]They are just sitting there, like they don't exist.[/i]
"Are these?"
"Yes they are robotic."
[b]The woman jumps back as another woman in a nurses uniform draws back a portion of the curtain to take a look.[/b]
"WHAT HAPPENED?!?"
"During the hunt for Agent Crane you were both gunned down.
He saved your life by covering you as much as he could."
"Wait? Crane?!?"
"Yes. We were unable to regenerate your left arm, nor your right leg. We therefore replaced them with robotic augmentations. Would you like for me to activate them?"
"Robotic.....
Do it."
[b]The nurse reaches over to the woman's arm, opens a panel and flicks a switch.
The woman immediately moves it, barely missing the nurses head as she ducks.
The nurse then moves on to the leg, flipping open a similar panel and switching it on.
The woman immediately kicks, the nurse barely backing away before getting kicked in the face.[/b]
"Please be careful. They will take time to calibrate to your normal strength."
"Never mind that!! I have both arms and legs back!!!"
"Well anyways here is some lunch, try practicing eating with your new arm."
[b]She steps aside to push a tray holder next to the woman's bed, a tray full of warm steaming food on it.[/b]
"I have to take care of other patients, but please feel free to tap this button and call for a nurse if you need anything."
[b]She indicates a touch pad set into an arm of the bed, then turns and begins to walk down to the door.
As she reaches the door, hand on the handle, the woman speaks again.[/b]
"I have a question."
"Yes?"
"What happened to Crane?"
[b]The nurse turns to face the woman.[/b]
"He died, saving you."
"Oh....."
[b]The nurse turns back and opens the door, slipping out quickly and shutting it, leaving the woman to her food and new attachments.[/b]
