Keisko braced herslef and Mel as Tekka stopped. "Don't worry, I'll talk to your parents if you get in trouble or something." She said to Tekka as she clambered out of the truck.
"Help me get her into the hospital." She said nodding to the feet again as she had the top of the board where Mel's head was. Together the two hoisted Mel out of the truck and walked awkwardly into the hospital. "Help! I need a doctor!" Keisko yelled looking around. Her eyes landed on Dr. Stevens. "Dr. Stevens!" She yelled. By now there were 2 nurses running their way with a gurney.
Dr. Stevens reached them at the same time the gurney nurses did. The young Tora and Ookami lifted Mel and the board onto the gurney. "Keisko, what happened?" Dr. Stevens asked as they followed the gurney down the hall.
"Tekka saw it all." She said looking at the young girl.

Tekka was pretty relieved that the injured girl was being taken off their hands, though she was a little scared because if it turned out that she wouldn't make it then Tekka would feel completely guilty. She would have been able to do SOMETHING she was sure of it.
When the story of what happened was prodded Tekka nodded and began. "I saw it from out my window, she was on a motorcycle and some of the street lamps were off on the street so it was kinda dark and a little girl was in the middle of the road." Tekka thought back. "She swerved and missed the little girl and ran into a truck, sorta." She frowned. "She didn't really hit it, more like she was half-out-of-the-way and it hit her back wheel and she lost control and crashed."
Tekka nodded. That was all that she was able to make out from where she had been and given the level of darkness in the surrounding area. "After that Keisko showed up and I ran out to see if I could help." She didn't add in that she was terrified or that all she did was steal stuff, the fact that the driver of the truck was obviously under 16 and was shaking said that without words.
She followed Keisko and the Doctor after that, not sure if she should stay or leave. Well, someone would tell her if she needed to head back to the waiting room, until then she was sticking with Keisko. There was no way she was going to wander off in a hospital by herself, she hated these places.

Keisko grabbed Tekka's hand and squeezed it reassuringly. "I broke her arm back into place, thats why the rod's there. And she had a large gash in her leg, so I used the belt as a tourniquete." Dr.Stevens nodded as Keisko spoke.
"You did well, both of you. Keisko take," he stopped.
"Tekka." Keisko said.
"Tekka, outside, she looks like she needs some air." He finished. Keisko nodded and pulled Tekka away from Mel. She hated to leave her but she felt her job was done. Now to sit and wait to see what happened...
"Come on Tekka, let's go get something to snack on..." She said.

Tekka gripped Keisko's hand tightly. She didn't want the Ookami to have to worry about the injured girl and her. Though why she was clutching to Keisko's hand like a frightened child when she wanted the older girl not to worry didn't make much sense, really. Tekka typically didn't make sense though, so she held on.
She nodded as they walked down a hall, the smell of food growing stronger with each step. It was only now that she realized that because she had missed dinner that night, she was terribly hungry.

Keisko rounded the corner and saw what they were looking for. The cafeteria.
"Pick anything you want, I'm paying." She said smiling and moving towards the pancakes.

For what was perhaps the first time that night, Tekka smiled. She immediately headed for the baked stuff, loading up a tray with muffins and a few pancakes. She moved on and grabbed a slice of frozen pizza as well as well as a small plate of fries and a coke. At the last second, she grabbed a packet of chocolate donuts as well. It wasn't often that she drank soda or had those delectable treats known to mortals as 'donuts' but she was happy when she got a hold of them.

Keisko chuckled at the plate load of food. She grabbed a fork and took her pancakes and bacon back to a table. She started eating, chewing mechanically as she waited on Tekka and worried about Mel.
"I hope I helped her..." She said softly to herself.

Tekka came back to the table just in time to catch Keisko's whispered words. "Me too." Tekka's face fell a little at the thought of the Ookami up in the ER (she thought that's where the girl would end up at least, she didn't know too much about hospitals), she didn't even know her name... "I think you did okay though."

Keisko smiled sadly up at Tekka who was sitting down with a full tray. "You think so?" She asked quietly.

Tekka nodded. "You did more than I woulda been able to." She ate a few of the fries and began on her pizza. "I would have just panicked when the ambulance didn't come." She stared down at the table while saying this.

Keisko smiled slightly. "Thanks Tekka... And I couldn't have done it without you." She said sincerily.

Tekka shook her head. "The people on my street are pretty friendly if you need help. If I had asked, we probably would have gotten here even sooner." Now that she was out of the realm immediate of immediate peril, she wondered why she hadn't just gone for help. They would have gotten here in half the time. If Mel did get worse, or if they hadn't quite gotten here in time, it would be all Tekka's fault.
Her eating came to a rather slow halt at this knowledge making inself known.

Keisko shook her head. "No, it wouldn't have made a difference if they helped. You did great Tekka." She said with a smile.
She continued eating her food, savoring it.

Tekka just nodded, a slight nauseous feeling coming upon her. She looked rather guiltily at her half-finished plate of food, deciding to eat a little more so she didn't waste Keisko's money. She wouldn't throw up, she'd just feel a little weird for the next hour or two. With that goal in mind, she took a few more bites of her snacks, opting to save the donuts for later.
"I guess we'll see..." She muttered in response to Keisko.

Keisko finished about 3/4 of her food and sighed as she took sight of Tekka's green face. "It's okay Tekka. She'll be fine... And you don't have to eat all of that. I got discounted since I work here anyways."
