Maximus; 8looked a bit dazed as Drix arrived8
Drix: 8approaches him8 How's Oz? Is Thrax here?
Maximus; 8gabbed his thumb at one of the room8
Drix: 8peeked in8
Thrax; 8was leaning over ozzy8
Ozzy: 8was in bed with the bandage ard his throat n fitted with tubes n breathing mask8
Drix: Thrax? Is Oz OK?
Thrax; Bearly
Drix: Wat did the doctor say?
*as if on cue, the monitoring doctor came in n chked Oz's vitals*
Drix: Wat's the verdict, doc?
Thrax; 8looked up8
Doc: U guys managed to bring him in the nick of time, any longer n he would've been dead. His self-healing attributes as a cell is kicking in, bt the damage is done. I'm sorry, bt ur friend will nvr speak a word again
Drix: Oh...Oh no...
Thrax; 8stiffened8
Drix: Is there anyway to fix it?
Doc: Sorry. The cut was too deep. His vocal chords r completely damaged. We had to completely remove them out. Bt hey, at least he's still alive, n tht's all tht matters, right?
Drix: Y...eah, I guess so.
Doc: Oh, n I had to get rid of his clothes tho. They were reeking with cigarette smoke. Ur friend must be a chain smoker, isnt he? *left the room*
Thrax; 8started transforming when the doctor said cigarette smoke8
Drix: Did he just say cig... *sees Thrax transforming* No, no, Thrax, calm dwn! Not here! Not at the hospital n not in front of Oz! *drags him out to the hospital bkyard*
Thrax; 8was foaming at the mouth8
Drix: Calm dwn, Thrax. U dont knw if it's... There was a lot of fire fighting n gun powder n plasma shots n stuff. There's no way... Will u calm dwn just for a bit?!
Thrax; 8took a deep breath8
Drix: Look, I knw I sound a bit of a doofus, bt all we got is just circumstancial evidence. The only person to witness the attack is Oz himself, n only he can tell us who it is. OK, not tell per say, bt u knw wat I mean. These ppl fight dirty n we can't lower ourselves to their level. N besides, Oz needs u right now. So stay calm n take this one step at a time, OK?
Thrax; 8inhaled deeply n nodded8
*a loud commotion was heard n u can hear Maximus being ordered to call Thrax in*
Thrax; 8walked in8
Ozzy: *was awake n was smashing things ard, freaking out abt his voice not coming out of his mouth, n he was not letting anyone come near him bcoz he somehow managed to get his gun*
Thrax; 8quickly moved8
Ozzy: *wordlessly scream, crying hard, trying to get his words out, bt it just came out as wheezes n he was stressing his injuries, all the while waving the gun ard*
Thrax; 8wrapped his arms round him8
Ozzy: *realized it was Thrax hugging him n started sobbing hard in his arms*
Thrax; 8held him close, stroking his hair8
Ozzy: *looked up at him tearfully, gesturing to his throat, as if asking wat happened to him*
Thrax; 8took a deep breath n gently told him what happened8
Ozzy: *stared wide-eyed as Thrax told him everything, then held his head, trying to remember wat were the exact features of his assailant was, bt it drew a blank. She was literally too hazy to recall, all he could remember were the eyes n the lips, nothing else. He clenched his eyes tight, feeling so useless right now*
Thrax; 8held him8
Ozzy: *sobbed until he passed out in Thrax's arms*
Thrax; 8held him8
Drix: *comes in* How's he? Oi vey, wat a mess *starts cleaning up*
Thrax; 8scooped his mate up8
Drix: *finished cleaning up* How's he taking it?
Thrax; Not well
Drix: Its to be expected, I suppose
Thrax; 8nuzzled his mate8
Drix: I better report home so tht Leah knws I'm OK. U gonna be alright with Oz? Should I call Miracle to babysit the kids?
Thrax; Please
Drix: *nodded n left the ward, then comes across Maximus who was nursing a black eye* Oi... Oz did tht to u?
Maximus; Sucker punched me
Drix: We better go home now. Thrax's got this. Ur mates might be worried abt u. No doubt this is going into the news soon
Maximus; 8nods n headed out8
*the duo made their way home, Drix calling Miracle to babysit the kids while Maximus headed home*
