Chapter 14: Chapter 13 - Field Medic In Action
Previous Chapter Next ChapterIt was in the next morning around 10 AM, Vice Principal Luna has asked Applejack and Twilight to help her repair her car because her engine has gone screwed up all over the place in the car hood. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna were sitting on a bench behing the school, watching them both cooperate together to fix the engine, Applejack simply did good trying to fixing it but Twilight was like a professional in fixing and tinkering engines. While Applejack trying to find out which part of the engine that needs fixing, Twilight spotted one problem in the car engine.
"Son of a bitch," cursed Twilight in cranky, as she tried to pulled something out the engine.
"What is it?" asked Applejack, surprised of her swearing as she looked at her.
Twilight strongly pulled out the object from inside the engine, turns out someone has dumped a wooden golf club into the car engine. "Alright, i wonder who shoved a golf club into the engines."
Celestia quickly realized that the golf club was hers, she used it for the day of golfing season. She then changed her sight to her sister Vice Principal Luna, Celestia already know that Luna has been nosy with her, the naughtiest thing that Luna ever did now is to hide and shoved the golf club to the engines. Celestia just caught the culprit.
"Ah, he he he..." said Luna, smiling and blushing in embarrassment as she scratched her head like she's pretending to be doesn't know about that.
"You and i gonna have a long talk, sister," said Celestia, irritated by her nosy action.
Twilight and Applejack then continue fixing the car. It was almost half an hour, until the 5 girls came to them and greeted.
"Hey, guys!" greeted Sunset, representing the four of the girls.
"Hey, girls," greeted Applejack, Celestia and Luna, Twilight greeted them with a nod.
"How's the car going?" asked Rarity.
"Well, it went FUBAR at first," replied Twilight.
"I... beg your pardon?" asked Celestia, everyone was puzzled with her term.
Applejack stopped fixing the car and instead glance at Twilight in confused. "What do you mean FUBAR?"
"Is that means 'fucked up'?" asked Dash, everyone except Twilight was a little less insulted.
"How dare you said such thing?" asked Luna, angry with her answer.
"What Dash said was correct," said Twilight, gaining everyone's attention to her. "It means fucked up."
Luna and Celestia were about to rebuke at Twilight, but they both just stay silent, besides, it's really true if their car was fucked up.
"What's with that broken golf club over there?" asked Fluttershy.
"Let's just say Vice Principal Luna has been naughty before until she quietly hide Principal Celestia's golf club in the car engine," replied Twilight, with Sugarcoat's way of speaking.
Luna was insulted for that statement, however it was also true even Principal Celestia agreed with her. Luna can do nothing but to shut her mouth and smiling in shame.
"So you do golfing?" asked Sunset.
"Well, yeah, until my sister hide it from me!" Celestia then turned her head at Luna in anger, Luna was still smiling as she back off from Celestia.
Twilight then closed the car hood of the engine. "Alright, AJ, turn the car on."
Applejack then opened the car door and used the key to turned on the car. After 5 times trying it, it won't on.
"Is there something you missed in the engine?" asked Applejack.
"Nope," Twilight then open the car hood and take a look at the engines. "There's nothing i mi-. Wait, i think i found one. Give me that wrench."
Applejack then get out from the car and find the wrench. Then she give the wrench to Twilight.
But what they don't know was one, Twilight lied if she missed a part of the engine that needs fixing. "Just stay there for a second will ya?"
Applejack doesn't know why she said that but she obeys it anyway. Twilight was taking a glance at the engine, before, she quickly hits the engine hard with the wrench. The loud sound and a very surprising act of her was enough to make everyone around her surprised. Even the Principals nearly jumped out from the bench and Fluttershy nearly produced a squee sound.
"What the hay are you doing, Twilight?" asked Applejack furiously.
Twilight ignored her question and kept bashing the engine three times before she stopped. "Now try turned it on."
"Twilight, that's impossible," argue Pinkie. "You might have damaged the engine."
"Yeah, you both might have to f-," said Celestia but then cut off by Twilight.
"Nah, just turned the car on," ordered Twilight, swaying her hand.
"What about we better-" said AJ before cut off again by Twilight.
"Just turn on the damn car!" shouted Twilight, a little anger tone can be heard.
Applejack just raised her both hands and walked backwards to the car door. "Alright, if it's not work, it's you to blame."
She then turned the key to turn it on. Somehow, the car turned on. Everyone caught in the air of silent after the car's working back in good condition.
"See? it works."
Applejack was staring at her with her jaw open, she was about to say but then halted, don't know what to say as she pointing at her. "Ok, how?"
"The engine being inconsistent," replied Twilight.
"What about a very clear one, Twilight?" asked Rarity, not wanting to be puzzled.
"Alright," Twilight then put her hands on her hips. "What about the car's gonna blow up if you didn't change the engine soon enough?"
Everyone gone silent again and their eyes gone wide. If that what was truly happen in the future then they agreed with the first one. "I'll... go with the inconsistent one," suggested Principal Celestia.
"Good," said Twilight as she nodded, everyone didn't want to asked her why would the engine will explode, but they better stay silent if they don't want to hear anything worse. "Have a nice trip."
After a while, some of the students came to the parking lot, either want to talk there or want to check their transportation. Applejack came to met with Big Mac near the Principal's car while the Principals take a look at their car. Twilight was about to leave with the parking lot with the 5 girls, until she saw something on her right. There was a bus driver trying to fix the bus, under the front side of the school bus. He used the old car jack to lift the front side of the bus up. Twilight saw something wrong.
"He's doing it wrong," said Twilight as she observed the bus driver's work.
"Nothing looks wrong about his doing, Twi," said Fluttershy. "What makes you said that?"
"He should have buy a new car jack," replied Twilight.
"It's still looks sturdy for me," said Rarity as she looked at the car jack.
"Not for long," said Twilight. "Plus, you see that small pipe under the bus?"
They had to crouched down a little to see what Twilight saw. There was a small pipe above the driver's stomach as he try to fix it from underneath, said to be the pipe for the accelerating gas was blown up and had to be towed by 2 cars to get to the school. Though, he was a mechanic that time before turning into a bus driver. The sharp pipe was pointing down towards his stomach, it would be life threatening.
"I don't think he will be in trouble, right?" said Sunset, hoping that won't be a trouble.
"Sunset, that... would be a problem for now," said Pinkie, agreed with Twilight. "We should tell him about that."
Before they barely make a walk at the driver, the car jack suddenly fell from its sturdy position, making the front side of the bus also fell above the driver. The driver quickly screamed for help as the sharp pipe already stabbed the driver's stomach.
"Fucking hell, lift that bus, NOW!" ordered Twilight, they quickly ran to the bus and try to lift it up, soon some of the students, including Bulk Biceps quickly help them lift up the front side of the bus, along with the principals.
When they able to lift it, the driver's screams starting to get louder until the sharp pipe has been removed from his stomach. Twilight quickly and carefully pulled the driver from underneath the bus and those who lifted the bus then dropped it to the ground and quickly take. Twilight then had that feeling, see and hear the driver wounded, like that day she had to save a soldier shot in the chest by herself, it was a horrid feeling. 3 seconds later, she pulled out that though and focus on the driver who is wounded. His wound was a little deep to the flesh and suffered fatal bleeding. Lucky thing is, she's been bringing bandages around in her jacket, so she pulled it out from her jacket and opened it up as she kept an eye on his condition as the people around them watching in horrid.
"Hang on, you'll gotta be alright," said Twilight, comforting him. "Shy, help me."
Fluttershy quickly helped Twilight with the bandages, Fluttershy lifted him up as she helps Twilight with the bandaging, good thing it wasn't the first time they're doing this. They able to bandage his wound but its still bleeding and the driver was having a slightly anxiety and felt slightly losing his consciousness. Twilight and Fluttershy had to hold his wound to prevent him from quick blood loss.
"We need to call an ambulance!" exclaimed Pinkie as she reaching for her phone.
"There's no time for that, get me a truck!" ordered Twilight, but when she saw everyone still standing right there she had to yell again. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!! GET THE FUCKING TRUCK HERE NOW!!!"
After she yelled in outburst, they quickly snapped out from their stunned stare and Big Mac with Flash quickly make a run for the truck while the principals were startled. Fluttershy and Twilight sti ll holding his wound and they both trying to comfort him. The driver's breathing starting to quicken its pace.
"Calm down, you're gonna be alright," said Twilight to the driver, softly as she made an eye contact directly to his. "Just keep looked at me alright?"
The driver only nodded in fear of death.
Big Mac and Flash quickly arrived with the truck and stopped 5 meters away from them. Twilight quickly tell him to give her his arm, and then Twilight pulled his arm and crouched down then lifted him up around her shoulders before she can stand up as she carried him around. Twilight quickly made a run for the truck before she put him in the back of the truck. They ever saw Twilight do those kind of stuff, except for the part that they never see her carry around a person like that, she must be strong enough to lifted him up and made Applejack impressed. Twilight quickly jumped in the back of the truck and checked on the driver's condition again before they go.
"We're good, move out!" shouted Twilight as she bashed the trucks frame window in the front, ordering Big Mac to drive the truck.
As the truck leave quickly, everyone who was still in the parking lot do nothing but stand there and watched the truck left. After that, they all stare and talked to each other about that leaving the Principals to gain their attention.
"Everyone, i know what we see here is very not good," said Celestia. "But we want to asked you to return back inside the school, there's nothing to see here for now."
Everyone went quite, but then they agree that they better head back in the school. Celestia and Luna then looked them went inside as the 6 girls were waiting for them both.
"I can't believe Twilight did see that coming," commented Pinkie Pie, surprised and shocked after what happened.
"At least they able to get him to hospital quickly," said Luna. "It would be better if we act first before the paramedics did."
"Do you think he'll be okay?" asked Dash, worried.
"I don't know," replied Celestia, unsure with the driver's suffered wound. "It seems pretty bad for me."
Applejack was smiling a little, Rarity noticed that. "What's so funny, AJ?"
"I just can't believe she able to picked him up around her shoulders," replied AJ. "Though he was heavy to lift."
What Applejack said made them realized that she just lifted him like that. "Oh, we didn't notice that," said Fluttershy.
Sunset frowned, for the driver's survival. "Let's just hope that they made it there soon enough."
As they expected, the truck has arrived at the hospital just in time. Twilight quickly peek out from the back of the truck and shouted at the paramedics who are currently loading their equipments into the ambulance.
"Hey, i need a stretcher now! We got a man got stabbed in the stomach here!"
Paramedics quickly surprised and quickly pulled out a stretcher from the ambulance with haste. They then positioned the stretcher in front of the back of the truck so Twilight can putted the driver on it carefully. After they put him on it, Twilight turned around staring towards Big Mac and Flash.
"You both go back to school, i handle it from here."
"Are you sure?" asked Flash in doubt.
"I'm sure, i'll handle it from here."
With that, both of them immediately left them at the hospital and head back to school. Twilight with the paramedics immediately escorted the wounded man in and lead the way to the surgeon room. On the way, Dr. Whooves quickly helped them escort the wounded and to see if the man's bleeding has been stabilize.
"I did the bandage and the tourniquet," said Twilight to Dr. Whooves.
"Good job, Twilight," complimented Doctor. "We'll take it from here."
"No, sir, you need me," said Twilight quickly.
"I know you want to help but yo-" he said but immediately cut off by Twilight.
"Doctor, take a look at this," Twilight then show him her Expert Field Medical Badge. "You will need my help."
Dr. Whooves quickly recognized the badge as one of the medical badge in the army, in which made him surprise and in awe. "You're the medic in the army?"
"Yes, Doctor."
Dr. Whooves though for a while before deciding without hesitation. "Alright, i might need your help."
Dr. Whooves, Twilight, and the paramedics able to get the driver to the surgeon room. As they positioned him on the bed and try to ease his pain, Twilight helped the Doctor to close his wounds and stop the fatal bleeding. Twilight had to get the blood bag to the Doctor to keep the driver's blood pressure stable and not losing to much blood. It took them nearly an hour to do the operation, but then they saved the man's life just in time. What they're doing now is taking a break outside the surgeon room, both Twilight and Doctor got blood stain on their clothes.
"Well done, Ms. Twilight," said Dr. Whooves. "Because of you we are able to save him."
"No sweat, Doc," said Twilight, smiling at him. "It's what i do."
"That badge you got there," he take a closer look at the badge she's currently holding in her hand. "You're in the Army?"
"Well,.... yeah," Twilight shrugged her shoulder and sighed. "Crazy right, still a high schooler already joined in the Army. I think you won't believe me."
"Actually, i believe you Ms. Twilight," He then pointing at her badge. "That badge you got there is an Expert Field Medical Badge. It's a good thing you have expert medical skill, who knew someone would be in danger. Well, why you even joined the Army?"
Twilight paused for that question, she sighed first. "I was looking an adventure, i though if i work in the Army would give me what i want, but then i much understand this job as a soldier. Protect and saving the love ones is a hard one."
"I know," Dr. Whooves then take a look on his watch. "Aren't you suppose to be at the school now?"
"Oh yeah, alright i'll be on my way," Twilight then stand up from her seat and turned around at him. "Good bye, doctor, um one more thing, don't tell anyone about this, alright?"
Doctor nods his head and wave his hand at her as she left. After Twilight already out from the hospital, she take a glance on her clothes, her blue jacket and her grey shirt already covered in blood. She doesn't have time to change clothes which will increasing the study delay. She called a taxi from the edge of the road and tell the taxi driver to get to CHS. Nearly 10 minutes later, she arrived at the school. She quickly payed the taxi driver and get out from the taxi and rushed into the school.
Everyone was already in the class for the next study. Twilight ran to her class and knocked the door.
"Come in," said Mrs. Cherilee, who is currently teaching the students inside.
Twilight entered the class and everyone suddenly thunderstruck and silent, seeing her jacket and her shirt is already covered in blood. Twilight then took a glance on her blood covered clothes.
"It's not mine."
"Is the driver okay?" asked Mrs. Cherilee.
"Yes, he made it," replied Twilight, Sunset was surprised to hear that, it's too fast for Sunset to hear the driver is okay.
"How you can be so sure?" asked Sunset.
"I helped the Doctor with the surgery," replied Twilight.
"What?" asked Mrs. Cherilee, Sunset, Rainbow, Trixie, and Flash at the same time, as the others was dumbfounded and silent.
"If you don't believe it, asked Doctor Whooves." Twilight then calmly move to her sit and open her notebooks for study.
Everyone was awkwardly quiet for a while until they all able to continue their study.
Rainbow Dash sat next to Sunset today, they both felt odd if Twilight ever did that.
"I heard about bandaging and stuff from her," complain Dash. "But surgery? That's crazy."
"At least she learned something new about that," said Sunset. "Unless she ever did that many times before. But that can't be happening."
"Do you think there's a suspicious clue with her?" asked Dash, as she looked at Twilight who is currently reading her book.
"The surgery," replied Sunset. "She never had do the surgery, but she ever got subjected to surgery."
"That's our first clue, is there anything else than that?" asked Dash.
"Not for now," replied Sunset. "After we study, we both go asked Dr. Whooves about it."
