Woah an update? How strange!
| Quote: | "It was hardly worth even dragging out here" A raspy voice accompanied by a ringing tone...
"Yeah... Too bad, why do you figure tha..." A deep voice with the same ringing tone along with it...
Rive blacked out again.
"Hey buddy! Wake up!" it was the small raspy voice again.
Rive steadily came to but couldn't see a thing, the raspy voice started up again almost before he could worry the explosion had blinded him.
"You got a pretty nasty gash across your face, had ta bandage ya up"
Rive's head was still spinning and he could hardly seem to focus on the words... "Um... Tanks... Tanks... Thanks"
The deeper voice laughed from the corner, "Top-dwellers can't handle a bit of spice eh?"
"What?" Rive still couldn't focus
The raspy voice was behind him now, "We don't have any fancy medical supplies down here, had ta slip you some glitterstim to shut down your system long enough to get you patched up... What were you doing in a scrapmetal confed ship anyway?"
"Well I was... Glitterstim?"
The raspy voice was clanking around some metal as he responded, "Yeah, you used to be able to get it prescription top-side, called it kodatain or something? Eh B'ruk?" The deep voice grunted in agreement from the corner, "Heck of a drug, kills pain, knocks ya out, and even puts you into a bit of a calm healing state. Still don't know why they banned it a few years back. "
Rive's breathing started to come in gasps as he felt his lungs close up
"Oh yeah, side-effects" The raspy voice said to the deep voice... B'ruk's great amusement, "Don't worry kid, they'll die down in a few hours, we had to give you a pretty big dose. Try to get some more rest."
Blinded by bandages, barely able to breathe anymore, and a bit of a spasm running through his arm... Rive didn't think he was in any position to argue and drifted into a spice-induced nap. |
