Day 30: Staff, Morning
Burly orderlies and agile Calm Effect nurses flooded the cafeteria from the Courtyard while regular hall nurses filed in from the Sun Room and ushered out those not involved in the rebellion. It indeed seemed as if Landel was sending out all the cavalry, and an effective cavalry they were: The riot didn't continue for much longer after the alarm sounded, though it seemed strange just how quickly all of the mutinous patients fell, even the ones who hadn't been injected with anything.
The hall nurses were quick to escort their well-behaved charges back to their rooms, praising those who hadn't joined in and chiding those who muttered under their breath in response. There were some exceptions, of course: One nice young man had even defended one of the nurses from the violent patients! Now, wasn't that exemplary behavior? Dr. Landel would be so proud to hear about it...
Within half an hour, all of the so-called "loyal" patients had been safely deposited in their rooms, and it was then that the alarm finally stopped and the true difficulty of the situation was tackled. There certainly weren't enough rooms in solitary to accommodate such rampant disobedience, and yet measures would have to be taken to ensure proper consequences for each and every patient involved. After all, something like this couldn't be allowed to happen again!
Different options were considered. Perhaps they should make an example out of the girl who had sparked the riot, but then again, perhaps not. This certainly wasn't the first case of patients attacking nurses or their peers in a crowded area, but what had been different this time was the sheer support that the other patients had shown for her. Should the staff then make examples of all those who had tried to "protect" her from the well-meaning nurses? No, there were too many for that...
In the end, it was decided that the best immediate solution would be to treat the rebellious patients in the Medical Wing while they were unconscious and then move them back to their rooms to await punishment. To ensure the safety of both their roommates and the patients themselves, however, the staff decided to securely fasten their limbs to their beds and keep them heavily drugged. Such a sad sight they were to see, but... it was necessary.
Finally, when each and every patient had been escorted back to their respective rooms, the staff hurried off to an emergency meeting upstairs. Strangely, Head Nurse Lydia was the one taking care of the proceedings in the Head Doctor's stead. She calmly told them that he was preoccupied with more urgent matters, and as she began to speak to the crowd, the staff could only wonder what could possibly be more important than an unprecedented patient riot...

At Kairi's question, Rukia lifted her head enough to look down at her bandaged left knee and right foot. Oh yeah, the scorpion. "Ah, jus' ran into a big... bug," she said, and made a crawling motion with the fingers of the hand Kairi was holding. "Was comin' back here 'n it found me. Coulnd't kill it, though." She frowned.
no subject
At the thought of large bugs roaming the hallway, Kairi let out a sigh. This place really did have a bit of everything.
“Well,” she started again, giving Rukia a small smile, “Be sure to take things easy tonight, okay? Don’t want you to get injured any more than you already are.”
no subject
Rukia didn't like the direction their conversation was taking. She was silent for a moment after Kairi's request to take it easy, then turned to look up at her friend with tired eyes. "Kairi, c'n you tell me a story? Maybe something you did back in your own world?"
no subject
“A story?” Her eyes widened at the sudden question, her thoughts already running over memories that seemed ages ago. “Alright, why not. Let’s see …”
After a few moments of silence, Kairi smiled and shut her eyes, a memory filling her mind. “When Sora, Riku and I were younger, we used to always play make believe games. You know, stories about princesses and the princes that saved them. Anyway, Sora and Riku always used to make me be the princess – which is ironic, because we didn’t know back then I was a princess of heart! – anyway, I was really annoyed, so one day I told them that I was going to be the prince! They were so shocked with me. Sora was forced to be the princess, and Riku was forced to be my horse. He used to crawl around and I’d sit on his back, and we’d tie Sora against a tree and everything. But anyway! This one time, we forgot to untie Sora on the tree and it started to rain. He was pretty angry with us.”
Kairi couldn’t help but laugh at the story, her eyes opening as she peered down to look at Rukia. She had plenty other stories to tell.
