《Pixie Dust Away》The Check Up
Advertisement
Jake's POV
So I woke up the next morning, seeing the sun shining through the window, I sat up groggy and tired. I noticed that mine and Izzy's hands were still conjoined, they seem tighter than last night. Izzy was still asleep, she's so cute when she's asleep. I continued to look at her. She was lying on her back, her head was lying comfy and sinking into her pillow. She had her arm wrapped around her Minnie Mouse toy.
"Morning Jake." Cubby greeted as he walked over to me.
"Hey Cubby. How did you sleep last night?" I asked him. He was still rubbing his eyes, he must still be tired.
"I slept okay. The couch wasn't that comfy to sleep on." Cubby says. Sleeping in this chair was way less comfy than the couch.
"At least you weren't sleeping in a chair, this was uncomfortable to sleep in." I exclaim as Cubby sat on Izzy's hospital bed. Skully was resting on Izzy's bed as well.
"So Izzy got something comfy to sleep on." Skully says.
"Yeah but she was really tired after waking up from her surgery. I mean she's been asleep for a long time now. She's needs loads of rest." I exclaimed as we could hear Izzy snoring softly.
"You're right Jake. I mean she fell back to sleep in the recovery room because she was that tired, she would've been still sleeping if you didn't have to shake her awake." Cubby exclaimed. He is right, Izzy is a deep sleeper and she will fall asleep like out like a light.
We heard groaning, and we knew that Izzy was waking up. I turned around and stroked her face as she was opening her eyes.
"Morning Izz, how you feeling?" I asked her as I still continued to stroke her cheek.

"I'm feeling fine. The pain in my toe is gone but I'm still tired. Also when can I go home?" Izzy asked us.
"Today, hopefully." I say.
"Izzy, you slept for a long time." Skully says.
"How long did I sleep for?" Izzy asked us.
"I don't know as we all fell asleep last night. You did fall asleep during watching House of Mouse." I exclaimed. Izzy looked disappointed.
"Awww! I didn't want to miss House of Mouse. You two better have not watch the rest of House of Mouse without me." Izzy exclaimed.
"No we didn't..." I began but Cubby cut me off.
"But we did..." Cubby says but I covered his mouth with my hand as I got up from my chair.
"Oh Cubby, he doesn't know what he is saying." I exclaimed while Cubby was trying to talk. In the end, he licked my hand.
"What did you do that for?" I asked him as I wiped my hand on my leg.
"Because you covered my mouth." He says while I rolled my eyes.
"Anyway Izz, you needed the rest because you were really tired last night." I exclaimed. We heard the door open, and the doctor come in.
"Good morning! I just want to give Izzy a quick check up on her toe." The doctor says as he came over to Izzy. Me and Cubby sat on the couch with Skully on the couch.
Izzy's POV
The doctor pulled the blanket back from my foot. I could see the stitches on my toe. He looked at my toe carefully.
"Okay Izzy, I'm going to wrap your toe up with bandages." I nodded as he got the bandage and carefully wrapped my toe with the bandage. He was done with that. Jake, Cubby, and Skully came over to us. Jake rubbed my shoulder. The doctor checked my blood pressure by wrapping it around my arm. He checked my temperature by putting the thermometer in my mouth. It came out normal. He checked my breathing and my heart. He put the stethoscope on my chest. And then he put it on my back, which was cold. He told me to take deep breaths, which I did.

"Okay let me check your charts then I can discharge you." He exclaimed as he flipped through my charts on a clipboard. Seriously, all of this just let me get discharged??
"Okay, according to your charts, you are healthy and you are in good condition. Your toe will get better and you will be able to walk again in a short time." The doctor says.
"Wait! So this means that I can go home today?" I asked him, praying that I could go home.
"Actually, I am discharging you right now." He says. I was excited. Jake hugged me as I hugged him back, excitedly. I was happy. I was over the moon. "But first I need someone to sign the paperwork in order for you to go home." He says, oh there's always something!
"I'll sign her paperwork." Jake says. I smiled.
Jake's POV
The doctor showed me Izzy's paperwork. It was only two sheets.
"Okay, can you sign at the bottom of each of the sheets." He told me where to sign. So I signed my name and filled out the information for Izzy.
We went back to Izzy's hospital room. The doctor handed Izzy the crutches for Izzy to use until she can walk on her own. She was in her own clothes. Me and Cubby had to hold her arms while she was trying to get used to using the crutches.
"Okay, I have sorted out physio therapy appointments three times a week for Izzy. These will last for two weeks then she should be able to walk on her own again. They will start next week."
"Thank you Doctor for taking care of her and helping her out." I exclaimed.
"It was nothing. She's been a great patient." The doctor says
"Thanks for taking care of her." I thanked the doctors and nurses as we were going pass them.
"It was no problem. Get better Izzy." The nurse said.
"Easy now. Gentle now. Don't worry we got you Izz." We kept saying that to her until she was able to do it by herself.
"Hey! I'm doing it all by myself!" Izzy exclaimed. I was really happy for her. "Now can someone carry me?" Izzy says jokingly.
"Sure Izzy, I'll carry you." I exclaimed. As I lifted her into my arms and she fell asleep in my chest with her head on my chest.

Catalyst: Avowed
The year is 605, and in your home— the country of Corcaea— the souls of mankind belong to demons. A phenomenon known as the "Catalyst" is what's to blame. This diabolical phenomenon lurks within every man, woman, and child. It can turn any human into a demon, if they fall prey to one, all-consuming element. It can be anything. Fear. Grief. Generosity. Even love. In a land where Gods are real and Corcaea's theocracy is the last hope for mankind, you follow in the footsteps of Father Richard Anscham: a deeply disturbed young priest, the leader of the Church of Mercy, and the foremost researcher of the Catalyst. Despite completing a holy mission from the Goddess of Mercy, obtaining a holy Relic, and escaping from demon-infested ruins, Father Anscham is in greater peril than ever before. Ravaged in mind, body, and soul, the solace he begs to receive from the Church of Flesh is impeded by a cruel lesson: the ramifications of a life spent sacrificing everything one has for others. See through the harrowing eyes of a man at his wit's end; through a dark fantasy tale of horror, hope, and desperation. Search for the cure. Conquer your personal demons. Welcome to Catalyst! As this is an archive of Catalyst Quest (an interactive, collaborative story), the prompts that were included with the original run of Avowed have been stripped, and the story is presented like a traditional novel for your reading convenience. If you would like to read Catalyst in its original format or participate in current events, you can find us here, on Sufficient Velocity. This book is complete! The story will continue with Catalyst: Calunoth, just as soon as I am done revising its content for here on Royal Road.
