Chapter 219 - Chapter 219 Zoey The Commander

As Thomas opened his eyes he stared at the roof and mumbled "my entire body feels like a bag of bricks." Poppy leaned over his face and said "It's your own fault." Thomas glanced at her and smiled as he said "Well everything worked out." Poppy sighed and said "We'll ignore it for now since we did find something out about this grey eye, apparently it stopped the internal bleeding as soon as it began saving your life but in turn putting you in this near death like state." Thomas slowly sat up and said "Well that doesn't matter right now, and I don't have time to sit around." Poppy hopped onto his lap and said "No you can't move right now, stay still what will you do if the injuries tear back open and you continue to bleed internally?" Thomas glanced at her and said "Dying isn't one of my options right now, I have to get stronger so I can save this place and then head back to the others and clear that thing up with the king." Poppy glanced at him and said "Don't be stupid you can take your time here, there's no need to rush remember time doesn't affect you." As Thomas stood up Poppy continued to hold onto him as she shouted "Stop pushing yourself or else you really will die!" Thomas began to walk towards the door as he said "I'll lay back down in a minute, just let me see what everyone else is doing." As Poppy climbed up to his shoulder she said "Everyone else is fine so go back and rest." Thomas opened the door and said "Then I'm just going for a walk." Poppy sighed and asked "Why do I even bother, it's not like your going to listen to me." As Thomas entered the room Sam stared at Thomas from a chair surprised and said "I thought you'd be out for at least a week." Thomas stared at him and said "Actually I should still be resting but I wanted to see how everyone else was doing after that thing shown up." Sam smiled and said "Everyone in town is actually doing better then before, now everyone in town has hope and believes that we will get through this." Poppy glanced at Thomas and said "There you happy now?" Thomas glanced at her and said "No not yet." Poppy glared at him and asked "Are you really not gonna be satisfied until your dead?" Thomas shook his head and said "I already told you that isn't an option." Thomas glanced at Sam and asked "Since you have time, mind showing me around the town." Sam nodded and said "Of course it would be an honor to show the person who saved this place around." As the woman who helped Thomas entered the room she glanced at Sam and said "Bad news the mission to the abandoned city to retrieve food went south and the men we sent there are all trapped inside a building that is currently surrounded by Zeta's." Sam stood up and stared at Thomas as he said "Change of plans I have to go help those people." The woman glanced at Thomas and asked "Why is he up, he shouldn't even be able to move?" Sam walked past her and said "You can talk it out with him right now I have to go." The woman walked up to Thomas and asked "Why aren't you resting?" Thomas looked away and said "I should probably go with him." The woman put her hand on his shoulder and said "Not in your current condition, now get back in there and rest." Thomas pushes her hand away and said "Thanks for the offer but I'd rather help out a bit." As he walked past her she grabbed the back of his jacket and said "If you choose to try and leave I will get violent with you." Poppy glanced at the girl and made her arms into an x shape as she shook her head warning her that it was a bad idea. The woman glanced at Poppy and said "Take your doll and go lay back down." Thomas shrugged and said "I'm going weather you like it or not." The woman turned around attempted to kick him in his head as she shouted "Fine then I'll knock you out!" Thomas caught her leg and said "Don't take this the wrong way but your not really good at intimidation." As she pulled her leg away she swung at him and shouted "That doesn't matter to me now get back to bed!" Thomas caught the punch and asked "Can we cut to the chase and just finish this?" Poppy glanced at Thomas and said "I agree with her you should continue to rest." Thomas let go of her fist and held the back of his head as he sighed and said "Fine you win, I won't go." The woman punched him in the stomach and said "As if I'd believe that your just planning to run off while I'm not looking." As her fist made contact Thomas coughed up blood all over her arm and fell to the ground as he mumbled "What the hell?" The woman glared at him and said "That'll teach you to disobey an order." Poppy stared at him and asked "Are you alright?" Thomas slammed his fist into the ground and began to stand up as he said "I'm just fine." The woman turned around and stared at him as she asked "Why aren't you laying there waiting for the medical team to come and get you, do I need to get even rougher?" Thomas wiped the blood from his mouth and said "Shut the hell up, I already agreed to go back to the room." The woman walked towards him and shouted "Do you have any idea who your disrespecting?" Poppy glanced up at Thomas from the floor and said "He's not playing around anymore." As she swung her hand once more Thomas caught it and said "I don't give a hell who you are." After a few moments a man walked onto the room and said "Commander we have good news." They all glanced at the man as she said "Tell me quickly I'm in the middle of something." The man nodded and said "The people freed themselves and are on their way back now." The man glanced at Thomas and asked "Commander is this man giving you problems?" As she pulled her hand back she said "This is nothing move along." Poppy stared at Thomas and said "Just sit back and relax for a while, you just lost a lot of blood." Thomas stood there breathing heavily as he said "To hell with that I'm leaving." As he left the commander glanced at the door and said "Dammit he's gonna get himself injured further." Poppy glanced at her and asked "But weren't you the one that was injuring him?" The commander glanced at her and said "It's only right that a commander puts there disobedient followers in there place." Poppy stared at her and said "Your lucky he didn't kill you." The commander stared at her and said "As if he'd do that." As Thomas walked around for a while he sat down against a wall and mumbled "I can't walk any further then this." Thomas glanced up at the sky and mumbled "Maybe I'll just take a quick nap." Thomas fell over onto his side with some blood leaking from his mouth as he mumbled "Yay, I'll just rest here for awhile." As he laid there Sam noticed him and asked "Why the hell is he laying down out here?" Sam sat down beside him and said "I bet it's that worthless commander's fault." Sam set Thomas up and tossed a blanket over him as he said "I can't just leave you here alone." After awhile both the commander and Poppy found Thomas. Sam waved to her and said "Yo what's up commander!" She glared at him and asked "What the hell are you doing here?" Sam shrugged and said "I seen the new recruit laying out here freezing his ass off with blood dripping from his mouth so I decided to keep him company." Poppy hopped off of the commander's shoulder and ran up towards Thomas as she asked "Is he alive?" Sam nodded and said "He is, but he's in rough condition." Sam glanced at the commander and asked "So Zoey care to explain yourself?" Zoey glared at him and said "I thought we agreed you wouldn't dare call me that." Sam smiled and said "Even if I say it you can't do much about it since I'm your best soldier." Zoey smiled and said "That's where your wrong, so I hope you enjoy spending the next three days in solitary." Sam glanced at Thomas and said "Yeah whatever, just make sure he doesn't die." Zoey began to walk towards Thomas as she said "This no good bastard can die for all I care." Poppy glanced at Zoey and said "Don't lay another hand on him." Zoey looked away and said "Just keep that disobedient bastard out of my sight and we won't have an issue."
