They hurried into the police station, their base of operations. They weren't even stopped, when the guards saw the state of the human girl Will was carrying. At so point he covered her body so she wasn't naked at least.
"Evan! Where is Witchdoctor?" The regular guard visibly paled looking at all of them.
"She... She is... She is at the infirmary, Lady Bea!" The guard said then hurried away flustered.
At so point Bea got used to this behavior. After the Evolution she beca extrely beautiful and at barely 20 years of age, not many people could look at her without a bit of red appearing on their faces.
As they ran down the corridors to the established infirmary, many people gave them weird looks. Especially when they saw the woman on Will's shoulder. And why wouldn't they, she had so much blood and dirt on her that they probably didn't even know her gender.
'It would be kind of funny if she wouldn't be at death's door. How much did she suffer to look like that?'
While thinking about the mystery woman they arrived at the infirmary. In there, was a woman, she was of average stature, her hair was white as fresh snow, sa as her skin and on her face she was wearing a weird ritual mask kind of thing.
She was Witchdoctor, the cities only dical professional and that weird mask was actually her transformation ability. It lets her heal people and she has a passive that can see other people's injuries.
Without turning towards Bea and the others she said: "Ahh, Lady Bea, you ca back fast. Did everything went well? I hope so, I don't want to heal you every ti you go out for...
She finally looked at them and Bea saw her eyes widen. She dropped the clipboard she was holding and hurried to them.
"Who is she? What happened to her, or the better question is, what didn't happen to her."
"We don't know, but need you to save her. She had a stab wound through one of her lungs and liver, I patched it up as much as I could." Said Bea.
"Ha-ha-ha... You think that was her only injury? There is at least two dozen I can see! Put her down on the surgery table and Will, clean her. It won't do her good if I can't see her wounds."
'At least two dozen? Who is this girl? Surviving alone is one thing but getting hurt so many tis and still breathing?'
Bea looked at the girl in new light. She looked so peaceful while dying. Bea beca sad but also determined, she will not let this girl die no matter what.
Will cleaned her in a couple of minutes and all of them were shocked. Not because of the fact that 5-10 percent of her body was covered in wounds or scars. No, they actually expected that, but they weren't prepared for her to be the most alluring and out right heavenly person any of them ever saw.
Even Will shown so emotion, but quickly got himself under control and turned away. The fact that she was naked probably urged him on, there was even a hint of red on his face.
Bea shook herself back to reality.
"Okay, stop staring at her body and let's get to work! Lucy and Will go outside and keep everyone away. Witchdoctor and are going to save her! Everyone understands?"
"Yes, ma'am!" They all said at the sa ti. And then went to work.
Lucy and Will answered the questions of the people who were curious about the mysterious woman. And in the anti Bea and Witchdoctor done everything in their power to save her.
"Which one is the most dire?"
"She has a deep slash wound on her stomach caused by a claw probably and there is a cut on the back of her knee that even scratched the bone, there is also the entry and exit wound of the stab. And these are only the life threatening ones."
Bea took a deep breath. She could do this, she had to, needed to. After the sewer escape, her Essence was especially low.
"Okay, I keep her stable, you heal her." Said Bea and they went to work.
The surgery took the better half of a day and at the end both Bea and Witchdoctor were lying in beds, utterly exhausted. At so point their Essence fully ran out and had to use mundane dicinal practice.
But both of them were very happy, because on an other bed lay a breathtaking woman in the process of healing. They managed to save her, whoever she is.
At this point Bea didn't care. She was too exhausted and after saying goodbye to everyone, went to bed.
When Bea fell asleep she dread with the heavenly woman. They were speaking and laughing together, she couldn't make out anything they said but they seed very happy.
At morning, or at least morning for her, she went straight to the infirmary to check on the woman. She went through the maze of corridors with a smile on her face. The people greeted her as usual but made weird faces because of how happy she was.
She didn't understand why was her mood so good, but also didn't care. She arrived at the infirmary soon and went straight to the mystery woman's bed.
There were already a couple people here. The Witchdoctor, Will and Lucy was there and also a young person barely 16 years of age. He was Clockwork, an Evolved who's ability is related to machinery. He was currently connected to the mystery woman's Watch.
"Good afternoon, Lady Bea! As I was saying to the others, I couldn't get a lot of information out of her Watch. Actually I couldn't get anything because her Watch's software is not upgraded enough."
"That ans we still know absolutely nothing of her?"
"I didn't say that ma'am. The fact that we found her here and that her Watch is not upgraded tells us that she only beca an Evolved recently. And if I had to guess she beca one after the Newber Destruction."
"Maybe... Well, we can only wait for her to wake up. Witchdoctor keep an eye on her, and call imdiately if sothing, anything happens. Understood?"
"Yes ma'am!"
"Everyone get back to work. We still have a base to run, people to keep alive and a war to win."
