Injured

Koura and the leader full speed sprinted at each other to get the upper hand, and digging their claws into each other. While also quickly jumping back after each attack to avoid takin a bite. Unfortunately, the battle was going to last a long time.

It was a favorable condition for Koura, but not the Siamese cats. They would eventually be defeated and the others would gang up on him. With that in mind, he launched at Koura.

She gave him a deep claw mark on the face and expected him to pounce back, but it didn't happen! The opposing cat used his claws to push away her face and took a large and powerful bite into her side. It was like an unspoken rule that a cat had to pounce back after an attack.

'Argh~~---!!!' She could tell this one was a going to be a painful attack. Koura couldn't even bite back as fast since her face was pushed away.

The Siamese's teeth sunk into her flesh, and she could feel it. Then, like a nightmarish, brutal scene, Koura took a bite that crushed the cat's paw to bits and pieces that made the paw bleed incessantly, but the Siamese was able to rip up a large piece of flesh and fur that crossed her stomach area.

'That hurts------!!!!!' Her mouth couldn't help but clench harder on the cat's paw, as most of the skin on her stomach was ripped off.

It was a terrible pain made her limbs spasm from time to time. It was only a few seconds after the entire piece was ripped off, but those seconds felt like hours.

Fortunately the others finished up with the other Siamese cats, and pounced onto the leader and made a finishing blow to the neck that killed him.

"Koura! Those injuries are really serious!" All five cats tried licking the wound and helping her up, but to no avail.

It took her all her strength to get up and say, "I-It's fine, you guys help your own injuries, i'll get help myself, in human form..."

Awfully, even standing up on her paws made the blood flow out of her stomach even more. Thankfully, even if the other cats could just take care of themselves and take over the territories, all five helped support her up, until they reached the alley's opening.

"You sure you'll be find from here..?"

"Yeah! We should help you get to a hospital!"

"What if you don't make it in time?"

"I think we better accompany you!"

"Me Too!"

Despite their protests, Koura could only reply with a, "It'll be fine, just wait for my return....", although the helpless look on their faces didn't go away in the slightest. If anything, it got worse. If only they could've handled those cats! It was what they were thinking as they saw Koura just barely standing.

After everything was settled, Koura turned back into her human form. Originally, she was wearing jean shorts and a large white jacket, but now both were stained in both cat and human blood. The pain might've actually been worse as a human!

She just had to suck it up though and force her legs to walk. Unfortunately, the nearest hospital was too far to walk with this injury, however, a large company was right next to her. One of the perks of this territory. Although any other business would probably call the ambulance.

It took all of her strength to push the door open, but it would be worth it. Of course, she didn't waste time asking the normal people, since it was most probable that they would take pictures first. So, looking for an important person would be the better choice.

Like a blessing, just as she was losing consciousness from the blood loss and excruciating pain, an elevator opened with a *ding, and a tall man wearing a neat suit stepped out. The man had Blackish blue hair and sharp, deep blue eyes.

Her eyes had automatically pointed towards him. He wasn't really looking at her, but instead, a few papers. So, his eyes widened when Koura staggered and fell limp before leaning against him.

For a moment, his brows furrowed and his mouth turned into a frown, and then glared at one of the receptionists and commanded, "You, call an ambulance."

Koura slowly opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was a white ceiling and was s=laying on a white bed.

'I'm in the hospital? Phew~ I'm saved....!'

Her stomach still hurt quite a lot, so she just slightly lifted the sheets of the blanket, and saw that her stomach was completely rapped in bandages that had a little blood seeping into it.

Click-

The door on the wall to the right opened, and a nurse came in to pleasantly find that she had woken up.

"You finally woke up. Your injuries were pretty serious, so you'll have to stay here for at least five days and continue healing at your own house. We've already contacted your family as well." The nurse walked over with a tray with pills and a cup of water.

The nurse gestured for her to take the pills, so, she swallowed them and stayed quiet on the hospital bed.

'I'll have to take the others to a vet when I get out of here.....and I haven't thanked that guy earlier. I can't even clearly remember his face.....!'

Koura sighed again. It'd would be hard to explain why she'd need that much money to her parents. Her current allowance wasn't enough to pay for five cat's veterinary costs. She didn't think that the others liked the Vet either.

Puff~!

Koura laid back onto the back on the bed. It wasn't as comfortable as her bed at home, but it wasn't too bad. At least she got meals.

The next few days flashed by quickly with the same routine, which was mostly sleeping and taking medicine. Sometimes, her mother or father would come visit for a little while.

[Outside the Hospital]

"Hyuup~~---!!!" Koura stepped out of the hospital doors and stretched her arms in the air.

She hadn't seen the sun in the while, and the warmth of it felt cozy. Though she wanted to transform into a cat right then and there to go and dash over to her house to get all her energy out. Unfortunately, her injury still wasn't completely healed, and she was suggested to not make any straining movements for a while.
