Chapter 19 - Surpassing my 6 years old self.

SORRY!!! SORRY!! PLEASE FORGIVE ME...

I DIDN'T KNEW!!

Ellionore waked up sweating just escaping a nightmare it was the usual one where the dead bodies of everyone that died in school blamed her from everything and the two most prominent ghosts obviously were Jasmine and Teacher Jack.

Breathing heavily she looked around the room, she was sitting on a small bed around her the clinic tools and small tables that were supposed to exist in a hospital were missing used in various other rooms. The room was very small and had no decorations a single window with a white curtain played behind her still she liked this place as it reminded her of her goal to help others so she can at least feel she was repaying her dept.

She went out of the bed and started dressing, even though she wasn't going to school she still preferred the standard issued attire. It was delicate enough that noone in their right mind would call her poorly dressed but also not so eye catching as to make people jealous or angry. Also the crest on her shirt reminded her of the Day and that alone was reason enough she wasn't going to run from her fear she was going to face them even if lozed in the end just like her father.

The only negative was because winter started coming both the shirt and her skirt were soon to be not enough to keep her warm still her father promised her he was going to the school to find her a winter issued attire when the time came.

Speaking of her father he was the reason she enjoyed a whole room to herself, he had become a sort of legendary figure inside the hospital after all he maked a habit of going to all parts of the city as if on a stroll.

Each time bringing necessities or even more importantly new information about the rest of the town. He obviously soon became invaluable and everyone wanted to have him on his team. It turned out people actually maked a habit of trying to kidnap him. She didn't knew whether to be happy or scared so she was both clearly proud to have such an awesome dad.

As for her mother, eventually she returned from the depths of despair making friends with the other mothers she was a bit jealous that everyone got to eat her awesome cooking but kept such thoughts to herself.

As for her, well she didn't do nothing, after she dressed up she silently opened the door on the floor five doctors were sleeping clearly on edge even their breaths were enough to wake them up looking ready to snap to action as soon as someone was in trouble.

She holded her breath and with practised precision jumped above the sleeping doctors, but because of their uneasy sleep the moved in unpredictable patterns making her mission ten times harder. The fact she had to do that while holding her breath didn't help still after failing so many times she eventually understood their sleeping patterns thankfully today they weren't going to murder her for pressing their feet or stomach's.

After that she silently run down the stairs clearly happy she succeeded, that mini game was one of the reasons for her to wake up so early still it wasn't so funny when she failed the doctor's always make sure to make her regret her decision on playing with their sleep.

She didn't mind in fact she learned so much about the human anatomy and how to help someone in need she even learned the basics of first aid unfortunately everything she learned was on theory even in their anger the doctor's were adamantant on the opinion she was to little to put her knowledge into practice, she proved them wrong long ago.

While she playfully runned down the stairs a woman's voice could be clearly be heard. The voice was both scolding and sweet with no ink of threat in it.

Don't run on the stairs Ellionore.

Yes Yes... She kept running anyway clearly happy. Eventually she reached the room of the woman who just scolded her.

Dr.Zery how can i help today i have already volunteered on the washing today.

Doctor Zery was a 50 years old woman who looked just short of 40. Her dark hair where messy but lively she had brown eyes that brimmed with kindness and happiness. Her face looked young and she was dressed in the white robes that all doctor's wore.

Hmm we are running short on medical leaves even though we don't necessarily need them using them make the recovery much more pleasant. Also it came to my notice some short little devil emptied up a bottle of sparkling washing soap.

She maked a guilty face treating herself yesterday seemed less worth it still she didn't despair.

Anything else dr.Zery ?

Well if you could bring food for three here it would certainly help a no sleeping day has already maked its appearance and its still morning i get tired just for thinking it.

Yes right away, then she turned around and left first she went to the house across the hospital. In there in a big kitchen people were chatting cooking and cleaning while lazely talking.

She went to her place and started working she did so for three hours at the start such a long time seemed impossible but now staying less felt like she didn't help enough.

Afterwards she went outside and stroled the town with the revelation about how the monsters worked both ways after all, while some used it to stay holed in their houses she and many kids used it to freely explore the city. Even in the unlucky event they meet a monster the only thing they had to do was leave silently.

But while the other kids used this chance to play or explore the town she used it to gather medical herbs with the help of her trusty book. Such a task was prefect for someone like her not only she became acquainted with medical herbs but also helped the doctor's the quantity wasn't much so she maked sure the quality was balancing the scale. Inside the town small fields either on courtyards or in small fields around the town different kinds of herbs and plants were growing dr.Zery make sure the little girl knew where hers and other doctors were so she could take care of them.

Other adults were too but she quickly became their most reliable resource for 3 simple reasons time, price and willingness. Unlike the adults she had the time to check their fields daily and since she was a little kid her price was usually a book or a private lesson in the medical field but more importantly then all her willingness to walk around town daily without complaint checking everything was fine she didn't just look she actually cared trying to put her lessons to practice and managing to solve some of the problems of her own naturally she failed too but she didn't allow her failures stop her desperately trying to learn the why.

In the end that was the reason dr.Zery decided to take her under her wing and teach her until school returned.

Still she didn't stop there all of that was what she was doing in the morning till afternoon. Afterwards she passed her time either reading or talking to people asking them questions or doing them favors.

Generally speaking she rarely rested and when she did she always moved unwilling to sit still after all sitting still that was the reason she had this nightmares.
