   I awoke to a familiar face.
   "Riku, is that you?" I called out.
   "Yeah, it's me… how do you feel? You were out for a good three days!"
   I jolted upright.
   "WHAT!"
   "Shh! Now keep it down! You were so out of it, they thought you would stay in a comma, it's my entire fault!"
   He laid his head on my bed. I gently placed my hand on his back and said
   "How is it your fault?"
   "I went to squish Ryza, but I squished you as well!"
He mumbled through the blanket.
   "Did you squish him?"
   "I cracked his exoskeleton in several places."
   "Well, mission accomplished, right?"
   "Yes, but you won't be able to walk for two weeks 'cause I jumped on Ryza and landed on you too! I cracked the vast majority of the exoskeleton on your legs by doing that foolish move!"
   "So, it's repairable, it's not like I will never be able to walk again, right?"
   He gave me a quick hug, and then we both just sat there saying nothing till a nurse that was quite intimidated by Riku told him that it was time for him to leave.
   "Bye Sheeta."
   "Bye."
   The days dragged on. Riku and Stella came and visited me every day as long as they could. I missed the fights and rough training, and missed my ability to walk. But finally the day came.
   "Stand up," growled the doctor, "stand up NOW!"
   I hated to be yelled at. So I was fixing to say something when Riku lowered himself down to the doctor's eye level and growled,
   "You know that we could sue you for treating us with disrespect, and you do not want to make me angry! Understood?"
   "Y-y-yes sir!"
  The doctor was scared strait, because he called me and Stella 'ma'am' and Riku 'sir'. He also said almost nothing at all after that.
   It turned out I had to use the crutches again. The doc told me I had to walk on crutches for 5 days, and to apply this foul smelling ointment to the place my exo on my legs cracked as well.
   The doc turned to Riku and said "Now don't you go jumping on pirates with all that extra muscle, you could have killed them both!"
   "Yeah, but if I hadn't have done that, Sheeta would have had her spinal cord severed cause Ryza was about to slide the knife down her back. So I jumped on him, and any other choice would have ended in Sheeta getting killed."
   The doctor sighed and told us to follow him to the exit. Riku placed himself behind me just in case I started to fall, he could catch me, and Stella was in front. She always liked to be in front, yet she never admitted it.
   "Here's the exit." said the doctor pointing at a door.
   "Thanks." I said and I quickly hobbled out of there not wanting to stay there another minute. Riku told me to slow, but I didn't listen cause I hated the nurses and doctors there, always rubbing in that you're short.
   "Sheeta?"
   "Yeah Riku."
   "Look, I am sorry about your legs. I-"
   "I know that you didn't mean to crack the exoskeleton in my legs, you don't have to explain it to me again. Just remember what the classes say."
   "Yeah, I just feel guilty…"
   "How's my cannibalistic triapods doing?"
   A smile spread across Riku's face. "They're doing their mating dances now. They started yesterday."
   "Good, I can still watch them dance."
   Inside I was excited, yet I did not show it.
   "Can I come and watch?"
   "Yeah, sure Stella, how bought you Riku?"
   "Nah, I watch enough cannibalistic behavior in the last few days."
    We arrived at my door and Riku told me that he would come and walk me to the training center in the morning when I left to make sure Snatch doesn't try to kill me once again. I pressed in my code and walked in.
   "Were are they?" Stella asked.
   "Right over here"
   I hobbled over to my night stand by my bed that's holding my 5 gallon fish tank. I peered into the tank to see little spiked triapods doing figure eights, loops, twirls, and random movements. After a minute or so, a larger triapod ate a smaller one by grabbing and shaking it till a piece broke of, and slowly devoured from there. I looked at stella and she looked like she was going to vomit.
   "You all right?"
   She can never stand to watch death, let alone think about it.
   "Yeah…."
   "I know something that you will like, it's small and fluffy."
   "'kay"
   I went into the kitchen and there was a cage on the table. I pulled out a small furry creature called a hamster.
   "Awww, How cute!"
   She scooped him up in her hands.
  "He is so precious!"
   We played with him till it was time for stella to leave
   "bye."
   "bye to you to! Okay Cruncher, time to go to bed."
   After I put him in his cage, I crashed on my bed.
