To say that Tekka was puzzled was an understatement. She was baffled, flummoxed, confused, (and hungry, but that was beside the point) and irritated. Not to mention her arm hurt. Where the heck had happened? The last thing she remembered was pickpocketing a guy twice her size and his buddies catching up with her to 'teach her a lesson' so to speak. Something had gone flying towards her head and then...
The scent of chemicals reacher her nose and the tiny tora sneezed at the unfamiliar smell, opening her eyes to a 'nuthouse white' ceiling abover her. There was but one explaination.
"Hospital." She muttered sarcastically. "Great."

Keisko wasn't exactly sure why but lately the hospital had more patients put in the coma than usual. She was again stuck in ICU for it and over the past few weeks she had been taking care of Tekka. She smiled as she entered the room. "How's my favorite patient doing?" she asked although she knew the girl wouldn't answer. She was still in the coma.
She looked up as she got to the bedside and gasped. "Tekka!" She cried happily. "You're back!"
(This also conveys my excitement over you being back ^ ^ lol)

(Aww! ^^ I feel so loved! *hugs* This also conveys my feeling of confusion. I feel like a foreigner after being gone for a couple weeks. ^^")
Tekka lifted her head up from the stiff pillow and blinked at the face of the nurse. She seemed familiar, now where had she seen that face before...
The answer hit her like a brick to the face and she smiled broadly. "Keis!" She exclaimed, sitting up faster than she should have and immediately getting a head rush, she also noted that she felt sore all over, and there was a pain in her right arm. It must have been from being in bed for so long. How long had she been asleep for anyway?
Still, those could wait until she ate and got caught up on things. She grinned at the friendly face. "Boy am I glad to see you! I was being chased by some guys and I guess they knocked me out or something and I had this weird dream about a platypus and a muffin cart that kept beeping at me." The blond looked down at her arm and noted the IV, it took her all of seven seconds before she freaked.
The little Tora's eyes got wide and she began twitching at the left corner of her mouth, she bit her lip. "Keis? Can I get this thing outta me?" She stammered. Tekka didn't like needles, not at all.

Keisko pushed Tekka down. "Whoa, you're going to lay down for a while. You've been out for about a month or so. In a coma actually..." She frowned down at the IV. "I'm sorry Tek, but we have to keep that in you for a while longer... It's giving your body the fluids that it needs." She smiled warmly.
"Now I'm not sure what happened exactly but they brought you into the emergency room and they saved you... but you wouldn't wake up. So they had me watch over you." She smiled at her young friend. "Glad to have you back."
(Lol yay! *hugs* You've been missed as well! ^ ^)

Tekka gave a whimper at teh idea of the IV staying in. Couldn't she just drink the fluids instead of having a tube in her arm? "Good to be back, even confined to a bed and stuck with this tube in my arm." She soon sighed, 'suck it up and take it like a man' as her brothers would say... Wait! Her brothers! Her sister! What about them!?
Her eyes widened again. "What about my family? Do they know I'm in here?" She was pretty sure they would, Jack certainly wouldn't be one to see his little sister get pounded. And Chika too. Aiden, not so much, but he'd come to lecture her or something at the very least.
While she could sit without Keisko pushing her back down again, she could still look worried. Tekka was an oddball, yes, but she didn't want the people who cared about her scared for her life...

Keisko frowned. "I think I saw Jack and Chika a few times... But I've never seen... Aiden? So I wouldn't know him... I don't think they've come up here in a few days."
She patted a free spot on Tekka. "Don't worry, you'll only need to stay on the IV for a few more hours." She smiled widely. "But you're going to have to do some rehab for the next few days to get your muscles to adjust more."

Tekka grinned, the two members of her family that she liked still cared, so that was nice. "Sounds like them." She nodded, "So what's the rehab gonna be like? Painful or what?" Tekka wasn't the best with hospitals, as any nurse who had had to oversee her shots when she was conscious knew. She didn't like hospitals, and hospitals didn't like her back. 'Twas a vicious cycle.

"You'll be a little sore doing it but otherwise, no it isn't painful." She smiled. "I'm just going to go tell the doctor you're awake and then we'll get you up and running in no time."
A few weeks later...
"Well Tekka, you're ready to go home." Keisko said happily as she walked into the girl's room.
(I figured quicker to end this, the better to role play elsewhere ^ ^)
