Chapter 167
When I apologized for being a burden and the reason their trip was cut short, Doc Ganon put a firm
stop to it. “You have nothing to apologize for.”
“My dear, you are not a burden, do not apologize. You are one of the most fascinating cases we
have ever had. We wouldn’t miss being a part of your journey for anything.” Doc Sylvia says with
that hint of manic excitement I have come to associate with her.
“I don’t understand. How is tending to my attack injuries fascinating? I’m sure you see stuff like this
all the time with the Elite Warriors.”
“You really don’t know what happened to you or how special you are, do you?” Doc Sylvia asks over
my shoulder, taking another sample from my back scar.
“There is nothing special about being held down and beat into unconsciousness.”
“Is that what you think happened to you? If that was the case you would have died long before
anyone ever found you.”
“I don’t understand.” I look at Doc Ganon who Is taking his fourth test tube of blood from me.
“The amount of wolfbane, silver and poison we found in your system should have killed you almost
instantly. Not to mention the amount of physical abuse your body took on top of that. Your body and
mind are completely intact as if you just have a few minor bruises from everyday training. Not to
mention the extent of your previous attacks.” Doc Ganon says as if that is common knowledge.
“Your body dispelled most of the poison within a few hours of your attack. The only reason we know
how much was there originally was from samples we took from your clothes. Either your attackers
had no idea what they were doing and just gave you a bunch of things to weaken you or they were
testing you to see how much your body could take.” Doc Sylvia finishes his thought.
Doc Sylvia did take advantage of when I tooka shower. She came in to assess all of my wounds
before I got fully dressed. Some of them needed stitches and she wanted to make sure that I didn’t
pull anything with all of the moving around I have been attempting in the small space of my room.
I am beginning to get antsy being stuck inside, especially when I found out how long I was out. So I
have been stretching as much as my body will allow and doing some light workout movements. It’s
hard being attached to so many machines, but I had to do something.
Neither of the Docs or Warrior Osiston have made an attempt at stopping me, so I assume
everything I am doing is alright or someone would have tried to stop me by now.
She wanted an unobstructed view of all my scars and wounds without the hospital gown being in
the way.
She did explain to me what some of my injuries look like and how soon she thought I would be able
to leave. She also alluded to having an idea for the reason that the scars that had the silver are
healing differently than every other injury.
She said it’s stilla theory and she doesn’t want to change the results if it has something to do with
the way I view the injury so she isn’t going to explain it to me yet, but soon, whatever that means.
Which left me thinking that more happened to me than even I know, and maybe I don’t want to
know.
I get the feeling that there are things about my situation she wants to tell me, but she isn’t sure and
she is using her ‘skewed results’ line to keep me from asking too many questions. Maybe she’s not
allowed to tell me, and her theories and assumptions are not something that are to be said out loud
until she has proof. But that might just be who she is. She doesn’t want to give me any false hopes
or false fears based on her theories.
It also took some convincing but she did allow me to put ona pair of shorts and a t-shirt as long as
she was able to cut it up the back and safety pin it together. It made me a little bit more comfortable
with Dr Ganon and Warrior Osiston coming and going. I’m becoming more and more comfortable
showing off my scars and injuries to people though, not like I have a choice here. Doc Sylvia and
Doc Ganon both seem to find all of my injuries and my scars very intriguing.
They take lots of notes and discuss over their mindlink what their theories are. It’s a little weird to be
comfortable in my skin.
