Sky had come to the Med Center looking for Araminta.  She figured that 
the pretty young woman would be here with David.  She wanted to make sure 
both of them were unhurt or at least healing.  She'd heard that David had 
been injured in a fight with Malk.  

She asked directions of a passing orderly and found the room where 
David was being kept.  She paused outside hearing the soft murmur of 
voices and not wishing to disturb the couple.  

But she was unprepared for the sound of something hitting the floor 
heavily and then a man's voice yelling for help.

She dashed into the small room, saw David struggling to get out of bed, 
saw Minty sprawled on the floor.

She dropped to the floor beside Minty, felt her cheeks and forehead, 
looked her over with a brief glance for some sign of what had happened.

"Get back in bed David!  Tell me what happened."

David had no idea who the girl was although he seemed to recognize  her 
face from somewhere.  Whoever she was, she had no business telling him 
what to do when his love was sprawled out on the floor looking so pale 
and helpless.

Sky stood then, all business and authority.  She wasn't going to let 
David hurt himself more trying to help Minty.  Not while she was here to 
help.  She move to the bed and forcibly pushed him back in it.  

"Nevermind.  Stay here while I go get a doctor."  Her voice held none of 
the shyness, was in fact harsh, and David was reminded for a second of 
one of his old weapons instructors in the Guild.  It was the voice of a 
person who knew what they were doing.  

Sky left him then running out in the hall just as D'ssarian passed the 
room outside.  She grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into the room.

On the floor Minty stirred faintly and opened her eyes to see a worried 
Sky and a concerned D'ssarian leaning over her.
