[04 - Checking In]

[Like so many others, Ruby woke up only to find herself in the clinic. The smell made her stomach churn. Medicine, blood, death. She wanted to run, to get as far away as she could. Unfortunately, her injuries made it impossible for her to do so.

Her left shoulder and arm are bandaged and placed in a sling to help keep it from moving. Her right side and arm is stitched up and bandaged. There are bruises all over her face and a bruise and cut along her neck. She was also in a lot of pain, but refused to say anything about it. There were people far worse off than she was. They needed the attention of the doctors more than she does.

To August:
I just wanted to check up on you, make sure that you were doing okay after everything. Could you help me to my room? I...I can't stay in the clinic. It smells of blood and death and medicine and it's making me feel sick. I'm on the same floor as the clinic, so I won't be going too far.



To Henry:
Hey Henry, I just wanted to check up on you and make sure that you were doing okay. I heard that some people were sleeping during the whole ship thing. Were you one of them?

[God, did she hope so. She hopes beyond hope that he had been spared the horrors that so many of them had been forced to go through]
