The pain crawled up your hanging leg, waking you up. The light beeps from the nearby monitor told you where you were before you could open your sticky eyes.
The infirmary was white as always.
You blinked a few times, trying to adapt to the light.
Several injured marines were occupying the cots aligned against the wall. Friends and relatives were entering the room, the muffled chattering bouncing against the aseptic walls.
Your leg was in a plaster cast, and an intravenous line was attached to your arm.
You rubbed your face with your hands, feeling all your muscles sore.
«Oi.» you called a nurse with raspy voice «How much time have I spent here?»
She checked the medical records on the bottom of your bed.
«One day, unconscious.»
You groaned, trying to sit.
«You shouldn't move.» she warned.
«Yeah, yeah.»
The nurse shrugged and walked away.
You took a look around.
It was a recovery hall, the marines hospitalized there seemed quite relaxed while talking to their loved ones.
Your lips automatically pressed against each other.
It was not the first, nor the second time you woke up in such a place. Honestly, you weren't keeping count anymore.
And like every time, your comrades had plenty of people around, worried for them, like it was supposed to be.
The two men beside you were particularly lively.
You glanced at them.
The one in bed was that former official who had recently been downgraded. What was his name again? Fullmuscle? Fullbody?
His friend sat on the mattress, joking around with him, strange glasses and strange goatee.
You didn't recall a single time someone came to check on you.
Okay, stop. No self-pity allowed.
With a brief sigh, you carefully moved your leg on the floor and grabbed the crutches, which were ready against the wall. Slowly but surely, you limped out the infirmary.
«Sorry I was late, man.» Jango said, adjusting his hat «They didn't allow anyone in for awhile. We were all kept waiting outside, even if it was visiting hours.»
Fullbody nodded.
«No kidding.»
«Huh? You know why?»
«Yeah, Admiral Aokiji was here.»
«What? Aokiji?!»
The marine pointed at your empty bed.
«Have you seen that girl? She's Surprise D., the sniper who follows him everywhere.»
«But she just left alone...»
«Aokiji stayed beside her from when she arrived until the doctor said she was clear. I guess an entire day was already enough for someone like an Admiral.»
