"Astrid, you're up." He picks Sawyer up and sets hum on the medical bed.
-
"Great." [b]Astrid carefully picks him up and lays him on the table[/b]
-
"I'm nervous."
-
"Don't worry, that worst that could happen is you will feel sick for a few hours." [b]Astrid places a device around his leg[/b]
-
"Ok."
-
[b]Astrid presses a button and holes open in the device, showing points were the needles will go[/b]
-
"That's trippy."
-
"One second." [b]Astrid wipes his skin with a numbing agent before another device whirls to life, the needles on its arms gleam as a red substance can be seen in it[/b]
-
Tommy watches from the doorframe.
-
[b]the machine begins to work on Sawyer[/b]
-
He crosses his arms while he waits.
-
"Cool."
-
[b]the needles slowly insert themselves in his flesh, they keep going until they reach his severed tendon[/b]
-
"Just a sting."
-
[b]he can feel the machine inject the red liquid into him, it fills him with a warm and comforting feeling as his tendon begins to heal[/b]
-
He instantly feels better.
-
[b]the process seems to go on forever, the blissful feeling growing larger[/b]
-
"What am I high on?"
-
"It's called a stim pak mixed with some relaxing drugs."
-
"Whatever it's doing, I'm definitely feeling."
-
"And I think it is almost done, just a few more minutes."
-
"Okay."
-
[b]they wait for a few minutes, by then. He was high as a kite and his tendon was fixed[/b]
-
"Thank you. Thank you so much." Sawyer starts to cry.
-
[b]Astrid smiles and waits for him to calm down[/b]
