"Are these gills?!" A deep voice almost squealed, shoving a finger into K'satri's neck and pulling up. She coughed and sputtered but he payed no mind.
"J-jasper!" She tried to shout, but the man just slammed her back onto the table, knocking the wind out of 'Satri.
"Don't bother calling for him now, love. He's in the same boat you are!" He sighed and examined Satri's gills again. "Besides, I'm going to help you! These are for breathing in dangerous areas right? Even underwater? How about we rework things, just a bit more. You can still use both your lungs and the extra organ for taking in oxygen ith the gills. What if you could expel you're own poison? We can rework your lungs so that clean air can be expelled as toxic."
"Rei!" "Satri managed to shout over her own heavy breathing and thumping heart.
"Rei? You men the kitty cat? Oh don't worry, your poison wouldn't hurt you like his does. No sir!"
'Satri raised a hand, asking him to just hold on a second. The doctor released the soldier and she rubbed the place where his hand had been. "If I agree to this how log will it take?"
"Hours."
'Satri narrowed her eyes, thinking. His proposal didn't sound half bad, but she was still very reluctant. She shook her head. "Maybe later. I need to stay with my group."
The man laughed. "That's funny, you actually think you get a choice! But you're right. Either way, you have severe burns. They need to be treated so why don't you just lay back down and I'll help you with those."
There was a little alarm going off in K'satri's head but she felt a pinch on her arm and saw a needle held in place by a second "doctor."
"Hey wait!" She shouted. "I said no! I said no!" She repeated the frantic phrase until her vision blurred and everything went black.
