Day 25

When we got to the emergency room

It wasn’t any ordinary one. I believe it was actually a part of R.A.I.S. a special medical facility specially made for operatives. There were already doctors standing in the doors waiting for us. They took Kay on the stretcher and ran through the double doors no one was aloud to go through. Sato and Leeha went up to the desk to fill out paper work, when two people came up to them. I saw them talking but I couldn’t make out what they were saying. I think they were speaking Japanese, but then they started speaking English. The two left and Leeha came towards me. “I told them to speak English so you can be filled in to about what’s going on.” “Thanks but I know Japanese.”

While we sat in the waiting area, it was like we were getting special treatment. All the doctors came up to us and talked to us, they offered us things and it just seemed like special treatment to me. “We’re well known in this hospital because of Kayvroni. Everyone knows who she is, whether they want to or not. They have no choice but to help us.” The more I sat there, the more impatient I got, and the more I thought about Riggs doing what she did. I vent to Sato and Leeha about it and all they had to say was, “That’s Rachel Riggs for you. They have history and I guess it just gets worse and worse for them.” “But she could have died! She just stood there and watched her in pain!” I bugged out. “It’s not the first time she’s done that. And it’s not the first time she’s left her like that. Except this time, I don’t know why she did it,” Leeha said. I was getting so pissed off just thinking about it. We were there for a couple of hours I think; I dozed off a lot of the time. Every time a doctor came to talk to us, Leeha would always wake me up and tell me what happened. “She’s just getting a lot of tests done, so it could take a while.”

          I woke up to the same thing that was happening hours before, nothing. Me and Leeha sat around in the waiting area, and Sato was just walking around. A doctor came through the doors and went over to Sato. I watched them talk for about five seconds and then Sato followed the doctor to where we were sitting. “Well, she came to, so she is now conscious in her room. She’s resting now, so you can see her in a bit. As for what happened, we are not exactly sure, but it was some sort of electrical wave interfering with her brain waves somehow. Which, as you guys should know, is not good. If this is the case, it could be a sign of a chip still installed inside of her. We could run some more tests and see what how it goes but it’s up to her. And we all know how stubborn your Major is,” he explained to us. “What’s a chip?” I asked. I knew what it was, but I knew what it was and what it did in my company. I didn’t know what it was capable of here. “A chip is something put inside of someone, specifically an operative of some sort, to collect the brain waves and replace them with other waves made from the chip. It can erase memory, change a person completely or it could be mobile suit related. In the Major’s case, it could be all three, but we mostly suspect it’s from her past and she never got it taken out or she forgot about it. It’s a big deal. That’s the best way I can describe it as of now, even though it sounds like a childish explanation, but you can go home and look them up on your own time,” the doctor said. “Well is it serious?” I asked him again. He looked at me, and then looked at Leeha and Sato, and walked away. I looked at Leeha for an answer but she wouldn’t say anything. “Sato?” He looked up and said, “She could die.” I looked at him but before I could say anything, the doors came crashing open. I could see through the doors there was a red light flashing and an alarm going off. I look at the doors and saw Kay. “Get me the fuck out of here,” she said directly to me walking towards us. The doctors and security guards started coming after her. Kay looked behind her and started to run. “NO! Go away! I’m fine! I swear!” One of the doctors grabbed her and she started struggling. “NO, NO, NO!” she screamed. “Leeha tell them I’m ok!” But all Leeha did was go up to her and give her a small needle in the arm to calm her down. Kay looked at her, but she loosened up in the grip of the doctor. “Why…” The doctor brought her back to her room and the security guards followed. She managed to look behind her and straight at me. She made a face that said, “Why are you letting them take me? Come help me out,” but there was nothing I could do. One of the doctors told us we could follow them into her room, so that’s exactly what we did.

     When we got to her room, we stood behind glass doors and watched because we couldn’t go in yet. The security guard helped the doctor plant her onto the bed and then strapped her in so she couldn’t move. Then they put some collar around her neck. “The collar is for anytime she tries to get out, it will send a shock through her body. It’s more annoying then anything, but there’s not much she can do if she’s strapped down. We apologize we have to do it this way, but you know, she’s stubborn,” a security guard told us. “It’s okay, she gets this every time she goes in the hospital,” Sato said. I guess I saw another side of her today, I don’t know if she was scared or just wanted to get out of there, but she tried to move, and she got a lot of shocks for it. We were aloud to go in and see her, so we went in and tried to calm her down. “Why the fuck am I in here!?” she was yelling. Leeha went up to her bed, leaned over her and looked her in the eyes. “Why am I here Leeha!?” She kept looking at her, and then smacked her across the face real hard. She shut her mouth and looked at Leeha. “Calm down,” she said. To my surprise, she actually calmed down a bit. “Do you have a chip in you?” she asked her. “What?” “Do you, have a chip, in your body?” Kay looked confused and looked over at me. She looked back at Leeha and said in a quite tone, “No?” Leeha turned around and sat in the chair that was in the room. “Well they think you do. And I think you do too. Do you remember anything that happened?” She stopped and thought for a bit and shook her head no. “You’ve had this problem for how many years Kay? And you still don’t know what’s going on, or you refuse to get checked, well I have news for you. The doctors said electrical waves are interfering with your brain waves. Now tell me you don’t have a chip in your brain.” I looked at Kay and her head was back on the pillow and she was staring at the ceiling. “I don’t know Leeha.” She didn’t say much after that.
