Chereads / Across 9 Skies / Chapter 6 - Naomi

Chapter 6 - Naomi

Naomi took out a thick roll of green bandaging and wrapped him excessively, she wrapped most of the most life-threatening wounds.

She covered his arms showing his exposed bones and where she thought was his chest because of the visible heartbeat that she saw.

She took out some green bandaging and wrapped him excessively. The bandage started to have a faint glow and the strained expression on Joey's face was gone.

"Will he be ok, Miss?" Rayla who face was pale and trembling had a worried expression on her face.

Naomi looked at her and she seemed glad to give the news.

Plop

She watched Rayla pass out on the floor after her question, "What the hell is this?" she thought inwardly.

She lifted her clothes and looked at the young girl with a deep laceration on her stomach.

Dammit-!

Do they think TM bandages are easy to come by?

With reluctance in her heart, she bandaged the little girl's injury.

Sigh!

"What did these kids go through to end up like this?"

"Was it whatever killed Moore?"

"Moore stayed around the computer all day so even though she was a weak special agent, she should've been able to escape".

"Dammit we still never caught those Syndicate scums"

Naomi felt annoyed. All she did to come out here was use her TM Bandages and collect the body of a talented hacker.

She even needed to make a report on all of this in the future. Naomi didn't even know how to begin reporting this.

"…...just great".

"Lieutenant Naomi are you alright mam do we need to come and find you!" she heard her sergeant through the radio reaching out to her.

"Naomi here how about you guys go on ahead without me in on a lead without me" Naomi looked at the two of them and knew they were her only chance of a decent report.

"Lieutenant with all due respect we can't do that-"

Lieutenant, we can't, how will we face the commander!"

"Seargent Kaiser stop being a bitch!, Go back to Sky Fall I will be with you soon."

"But commander that-"

"That's an Order sergeant!" Naomi hissed as she hung up her radio.

She was the one making the report not them and it was her that needed to find out what happened.

She looked at the badly damaged body of Joey and waited.

8 hours later

"Argh-!" Joey woke up in crippling pain as he tried to move his toes his legs started to spasm.

"Don't move...." Naomi spoke.

Joey's body felt superglued to the ground, he looked up at her with confusion written all over it.

"You weren't dead?"

Noami looked at him like an idiot "Is that how you remembered it, kid?"

"Yea-urgh!"

"Jeez kid, you look like you were half-eaten by a dog" Naomi wondered out loud.

She saw he was in pain and felt bad. She unscrewed the bottle from her pants and used it down his throat.

Joey felt a weird movement in his throat that was cringy but he knew it was just his throat healing, it reminded him of the pill that his Uncle gave him.

He laid back recalled all the events that left him in his inhumane state.

"Oi, Kid who the hell are you?" Naomi knew he could talk now after he drank all her elixir.

Joey kept his mouth shut, women were something he now struggled to trust.

"Who are you?

Why do I have to answer you?"

"My name is Lieutenant Naomi Sky Warrior from the Southern Military Base, I just want to ask if you know anything about the house down there." Naomi had a smile that dimmed the sun with her harmless appearance.

"Thanks for the help Ms Naomi, I will repay you in the future" Joey thanked her and tried to dismiss her.

He hoped the matter was done and dealt with.

"How about you repay me right now?"

"Lady, please leave I don't have anything to repay you with"

"I just need to know what happened to Moore"

"Lady leave!"

Joey already put it in his mind not to trust anyone neither male nor female.

"I'll kill you, I was just being nice asking you"

Naomi spat disdainfully she already gave him valuable elixirs and this little runt wanted to defy her in his half baked state?

Hateful bitch! You have the gall to threaten me?

Joey rebuked his weakness, He was helpless to do anything.

He finally gave up.

"Fine kill me...." he paused then said "But....just adopt my sister, she knows a lot about animals and studied about her condition for a long time, she even had a suture kit that she would use to stitch things that we already butchered" Joey tried to laugh but the pain got the best of him.

Joey quickly stopped and with a strained voice, "she will become a doctor if you tell her it's my last wish, and don't let her see my body."

Joey closed his eyes and relaxed his body he tried to make his mind go blank.

Joey waited there for a couple of seconds but still nothing.

"Lady?" Joey asked

As joey opened his eyes he saw a small ball falling toward him his heart skipped but he didn't have time to think about what it was as I exploded.

It blew up in his face he blacked out and his body fell limp.

An unknown amount of time passed when Joey started to regain some consciousness. Joey started to see a bright light shining in his eyes as he woke up along with some very faint voices.

"Your brother is really weak how could he do all that?" Naomi said, she was currently crouched and talking with Rayla about what happened.

"I don't really know Ms Nana, when I woke up I saw a lot of sparkles," Rayla explained making childish gestures with her arms.

Ms Naomi was curious and invested as she asked "then....?"

At this time Joey started to wake up to see that he was at the side of a campfire.

"What the hell happened?" he thought aloud. When he finally woke up, he caught the attention of Naomi and Rayla.

"Joey!" Rayla shouted happily

Joey sat up and his sister hugged him and hung around his neck, he felt like was gonna die from the pain but it wasn't unbearable.

"Brother don't worry, Ms Nana helped you".

"Nana?"

Joey was confused and looked up at Naomi and understood the whole situation.

"Don't worry I didn't tell her about whatever you called that" Joey blushed thinking of how he acted. She was naturally talking about Joey saying she would just kill him.

"T-thank you," Joey shyly said.

Why don't you eat something?" she offered.

Joey looked in front of him and saw a goat being roasted and the hungry in his belly made him forget any form of manners. He grabbed a piece with his bare hands.

He saw his sister looking at him but the mind is stronger than the mind. He grabbed the price of meat and never stopped chewing.

He didn't know if it was because he was hungry but he ravaged the meat and kept going for more.

On the other side of the fire.

"Ms Nana, Why is my brother eating like the goat made him angry?" Rayla asked, Naomi only laughed and said "Haha, kid a hungry man is an angry man, after he eats he will feel a whole lot better".

They could only sit and watch the amazement of the famished Joey dine.
