Oops (Not OotS)

Who: Keto, Shakespeare, Amber, Tara
Where: Crew Quarters and Medical Bay
When: Snippage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amber angrily pounded the punchbag in the quarters she shared with
Keats and focuses on not feeling any pain at all. She had no one to
talk to, John was always working, Rufus was busy, trying to take his
mind off his mother, and Jack was captured on new wales. The idea of
talking to her father was something she didn't like, she'd rather do
painting duty for a year than speak to 'that traitorous smeghead.'
The strapping on her wrists and over her knuckles was soaked with
sweat and blood, she had been stood there beating the bag up for the
entire duration of Tara being in surgery. Amber was suddenly caught
off guard by the thought of her mother and missed the punchbag. She
slipped and hit the deck, her wrist crunching a she tried to break her
fall.
She lay there on the floor for a while, simply absorbing the quietness
and breathing heavily from so much exertion. Gradually she got up and
slowly unwrapped the strapping on her wrists, her wrist twinged
painfully as she moved it but she ignored the pain and got undressed
and climbed into the shower. The hot water was refreshing and she
washed away the sweat, and the blood of her hands. She wondered how
that man who looked like Trisees was getting on saving her mother.
She pulled on some civilian clothes and took the express buggy to the
lift that took her to the medi-bay.
---- Snip ----
*Rustle-rustlerustlerustle!* exclaimed the Tree. Keto took a breath,
preparing to spit several cutting insults at it...and then suddenly
paused, eyes widening for a second before he narrowed them reflexively.
"Where's Cleavage?" he said quietly.
---- End Snip ----
The door swooshed open lightly and Amber walked in, slightly paler
than wen she set off because her wrist hurt quite a bit now.
"The fair maiden Tara is't duelly located in thine Intensive Care
Unit." Shakespeare said in his unique accent.
Amber scowled at Shakespeare, purely for his resemblance to Trisees
and walked over to the ICU. As she tried to push the door open she
yelped in pain.
"I think I broke my wrist...." Amber said, getting paler and almost on
the verge of passing out. She sat down in a chair and looked at the
floor. "Sorry."
