Doctor Sebastian was so angry and couldn't believe what he had heard from them. He pushed Nick away and said "I will treat her because it is against MY RULES! If I don't!"
They couldn't argue with that and allowed him to treat Scarlet. They would deal with the repercussions after she is better, and her wounds were to be treated. Travis used his Energy to make a bath and Nick heated it up. Doctor Sebastian hopped in the Water with Scarlet in his arms and then turned to yell to the Males in the cave to get out.
Nick ran them out of the room and said, "Travis get the Emergency pack that she packed!"
Travis was exhausted by this time and said, "I'll try my best." As he said that he moved the Energy in his body into the ground and tried to bring the bag to them. Ignoring the angry looks that he got from Nick and Doctor Sebastian.
As the bag slowly made its way out of the ground Nick ran over to get it for Doctor Sebastian and retrieve whatever he needed out of it. Since Doctor Sebastian had Eight limbs at his disposal, he had Two legs and Six Arms. He pulled had pulled the work mat out and Two others paced her on it as the rest were getting the bandages, creams, and stitching material that he would need to treat her.
Scarlet was stitched, bandaged, and treated to the best of Doctor Sebastians ability. Since Scarlet was the very person that taught him everything he knew, she was in the most prefect hands that anyone in this World could find.
When Doctor Sebastian was placing the last bandage Mac was brought in Beaten and Bloody. As soon as Nick seen him, he ran up to slam him into the wall. Putting his face inches from Mac's, he demanded answers. "Why did you betray us?! We were Friends and we were here to change things!"
Mac glared at him and said "You don't get it! They were not in charge!" Turning away he continued "She is too Weak to fight against them."
The Earth closed around Mac's body and Scarlet was standing in front of him before anyone noticed. She turned her bandaged face up to look at him and said, "You will tell me where they are and if you don't, I will make your life so miserable you will beg for death."
Mac laughed and said, "I am a Male with no Bands. My life couldn't get any more miserable than this!"
An Evil laugh filled the room as Scarlet shuffled towards him and said "During my Ten years on the run I was Caught Six times. Would you like to know what I learned from those times?" laughing again she continued "I can make it to where you want to die but keep you on the brink of a Very painful death for a Very long time. So, I ask you again. Where are they?!"
Mac looked at Scarlet's face, since One eye and half her face was bandaged, and he looked at the One blackened eye and could see the truth was there. She was able to deliver on that threat and is going to torture him until he talked. He said "I don't know where they are. Matt just said that he could help me like you did for Nick."
Scarlet's laugh was lighter this time she could tell that he was lying and said "The only Two that would be able to do that are Scott and my Master. So, if it was Matt or Tony that promised this then you were lied to from the start. But if it was someone else then you need to tell me who and hope that I believe you."
With sweat pouring down his face as he staired as Scarlet and said "Is what you said about Tony true? He wouldn't have been able to make me stronger?"
Scarlet said "Tony had the knowledge of how to do it, but to be able to put the thought into action. He never had the skill set to do it."
With a longing face he said "Tony told me that a group with the 'Great Spirit' was close and that he could make me Stronger if obeyed them. They wanted me to tip them off when you showed up. That was all they wanted me to do I swear, and Tony would make me stronger, like you did for Nick."
No One in the room could believe what he was saying. Nick was about to kill him when Scarlet stopped him and moved Mac up to hang from the ceiling only to say "I'm tired. I'll figure out what to do with him later."
Turning to Nick, she held her uninjured arm up for him to pick her up. Bending down even though he was gentle Scarlet moaned in pain as she was scooped up. Cradling her in his wings, Nick took her to a room that he had set up for her ahead of time to rest.
Travis and Doctor Sebastian followed and when they got there, Doctor Sebastian turned to Travis and demanded answers on why he didn't heal Scarlet. Travis averted his gaze and looked down and said, "There are rules that I can't tell you about and I can't break them."
Pushing him Doctor Sebastian said "That is not an acceptable answer Travis! What punishments could those rules have that you couldn't just heal her even a little?"
Squeezing his eyes shut he said through clenched teeth "I can't say anything more. Death is the only answer I can give you."
With that bomb dropped on them other Two couldn't say any more about the matter and just tried to help their Female heal as best as they could. It was just after Dawn when Alex made it to them, leaving Nick and Travis shocked when they caught sight of him.
Alex was still in the healing process, but he seemed to have the same wounds as Scarlet. Doctor Sebastian said "I forgot to tell you that when 'Little Spirit' got hurt Alex also received damage. I knew for the most part what to expect when I saw her, but I hoped they weren't as bad as I thought. However, that was just wishful thinking on my part. Her wounds were so much worse than I could have ever thought possible though."
Travis said sadly "I wish I could heal her, seeing her like this is killing me. I heard the bomb go off and I've heard her scream. She never called out for help and even had to save me in the End."
When Travis Finished speaking Alex noticed that Scarlet was still Heavily injured, he rushed to her side and demanded to know what happened. After they had filled him in on everything that happened, Alex wanted to kill Mac but couldn't bring himself to leave Scarlets side.
Pressing his lips to hers he could taste the alcohol still lingering on her breath. Since the kids were in the room with them, they were also by their Mothers side. Fuzzball and Soft Spot were on the bed curled up with her, and Parker was on the other side of Scarlet with tears in his eyes.
Alex said "You can't heal her, but I can. I am her Male and will not let her be in anymore pain. I have nothing to do with the Strange Abilities that you both share. There shouldn't be any negative outcomes if I heal her."
Nick walked up and said "That sounds about right. It should work without anything Negative to happening. I…"
Alex said "Shut up I don't want to hear anything else from you! You are the reason that things ended up like this in the First place!"
Doctor Sebastian who felt the same about Nick said "Everyone needs to knock it off with the Negative Energy. Look at what it is doing to her. Hasn't she suffered enough already?"
This drew everyone's attention to Scarlet after he spoke. They could see that her face was contorted in pain from their Negativity.
