Cory And Suzy, Katryn Ali [13 inch ebook reader txt] 📗

CHAPTER 4

Raphael went to the nurses' station where Amistis Star was busy writing orders in a chart that Doctor Duncan Fraser had just given her.

"Hey beautiful," she heard. She looked up to see the nice looking Doc Floyd peeping down at her.

"You free for lunch?" he asked.

"Sure. Where to?" she asked.

"The good old cafeteria sound alright?" he asked. She smirked. "The food is actually better here than most restaurants," she admitted.

Pedro Raphael Floyd was a very nice looking man, with light, strawberry blond hair and a goatee type mustache and beard. But she saw right off he had shaved.

He looked even more handsome without it but she decided not to tell him so as she did not know him all that well yet to make such a statement, but man, he sure couldn't do bad to stand to be without it that's for sure. He had such striking aqua-blue eyes.

When they sat for lunch they began talking about Angeleeka.

"She has AMS?" Amistis replied surprised.

"Yes, I just got the report back," Raph said handing her the file. She read it. She was sorry to see that her father, just like hers, had been of the same Dark Empire.

She then began to tell Floyd about Zartharyos and about how he had caused her AMS by the terrible mind altering drugs they had given to her when she was around Angel's age.

"Angel too was a child born on the main Dark Empire space station. She was delivered by her own father. I fear they had done tests on her too. She is very intelligent," Floyd said.

Amistis never thought she'd see the day when someone else had what she had. "I wouldn't wish this illness on anyone, especially another innocent child," she said. Raph took her hands. For a moment he was transformed and she saw white wings!

"You could be such a good help to her. Listen AAyael, where are you staying at?" he asked her. She snapped out of whatever daydream that had been. "I - I'm staying at the house, Ruty's I mean, near Amblen Falls," she replied.

"Do you have room to take in Angeleeka? Could you become her guardian? She lives at the orphanage, but now that she is ill.." Raph said. It would be nice.

Amistis remembered when she had taken in Heity and Neely, fostering them. But one of the girls had died and so the other was taken away from her.

"Yeah, I'd love to but I am ill and," she began.

"Oh, forgive me honey... I will become her guardian then, and we both will live there, with you, if that's alright," Raphael now said getting the okay from the Father.

Amistis cheered right up. "Yeah! Great!" she barked.

"I know of two other boarders who will need a place to stay and we will pay full rent," Raphael now said.

"Oh yeah? Who?" Amistis asked.

"Barry Michaels and Noel Gabriel. Michael, you have just met. He is a new doctor here, but Gabriel, you have yet to meet, but they are very honest and trustworthy. Very Godly men," Raphael said.

So it was all set. Raphael, Michael, and Gabriel would move in this weekend, along with Angeleeka.

When Raphael told her she cried. She couldn't believe she was not going back to that orphanage! She just hugged and hugged Raphael's neck.

"Oh, it's alright sweetie pie," he said.

"You truly are an Angel," she remarked.

'More than you know,' he thought.

Gabriel had meet Michael in his temporary human form, but only for a few minutes, and was too busy to really look upon him while tending to keeping the snakes tame, while Michael had gotten Angeleeka quickly away and rushed to the hospital that time, for this current assignment.

Michael was much smaller than Gabriel had expected him to be. Michael was dressed in very casual attire a teenager would wear, and a white cap on his head in the backward position. He was punching a white glove. He tossed a ball up and down, back and forth, when Gabriel finally arrived to the house.

He had just come from the Angelic Realm. Gabriel was bigger boned by far.

"Hey, big guy," Michael said. Gabriel tried not to frown but it happened anyway. Michael felt intimidated by him. They came to find in their present forms, they somewhat argued and didn't get along as well as Michael would of liked.

The summer was turning out to be wonderful for Angeleeka. The two snakes found out where she was living.

One day she was out feeding them some food and water when Amistis Star came outside. She had a box and inside it was a nice sized swimming pool that just folded up inside the box.

''OH!" she outburst seeing the snakes. Both hissed at her as she was about to throw the big box on them.

"No! AAyael, they are friendly!" Angeleeka yelled.

"Cory, Suzy, she is a friend! I told you, about all who live here with me. Her, and 3 guys," Angeleeka said and said.

Gabriel opened AAyael's ears so that she could hear.

"She means us no harm? She is about to crush us!" Suzy hissed. AAyael was sure it sounded like words. It was bad having two cobra snakes in her back yard!

Suzy went over to her just a hissing her warnings. Gabriel stepped in just as Suzy struck because she got so scared. She bit him in the leg.

"Oh no! Back off you two!" Michael said now coming to our rescue. He had just come home from work.

He used a chair then to keep him some safe distance from the snakes. "Go away! Shoo!" he roared.

Gabriel fell backward.

"He's been struck!" Amistis cried. Gabriel was vulnerable now too like Raphael and Michael for this assignment.

Cory and Suzy hissed and went away. Michael now rushed up to his comrade. Gabriel was still a bit weakened from having some of his inoculations. He had just gotten out of the hospital in the Angelic realm. They all 3 had had to be inoculated. Gabriel would have the last of them in about 3 months. It was unwise to have all of them so close together. It could make the angel too sick.

Michael had been first and had had such a severe reaction he had to spend the night in Intensive Care, his angelic body going through all those changes and the effects of the shots, but he would do worse if he caught the illnesses that he was inoculated against. It had to be done. Hbis last shots had just been given and him recovered before his new assignment here. Gabe was not done quite yet. In 3 or so months he would report back for the rest.

Raphael had had the least severity. Gabriel was ill too from the first set of shots and hadn't gotten all his strength back. He was in for an even rougher ride when given the rest but he was good to go, for now. That is until he got bit by the snake.

Raphael came outside now. "What happened?" he asked rushing over to Gabriel. Michael was on the phone calling an ambulance. "Those cobras were here and they struck him," he said.

"They wouldn't strike. Only if provoked," Raph argued.

"Well, they struck him!" Michael horned, then someone came on the phone.

"Yes, I need an ambulance," he told them and gave the address. Amistis took Gabriel's pulse and it was fast. Michael had begun to get some of the poison sucked out of his leg. It tasted horrible!

"What did you do to provoke the snakes, Angel?" Raphael asked. He got Gabriel on an IV. They were Jeni type Beings. That's what the people here were called who had genie type powers and could zap stuff up. No way did anyone realize who they really were.

"He's going into shock," Raph said.

"They got scared when Amistis came outside with a big box," Angeleeka said, about to tears.

Raph looked over at the box on the lawn. It held a swimming pool inside. "I told you to keep those snakes away from the house!" Raph blew.

Gabriel was unconscious now. "He's not doing good Michael," Raphael said.

"Oh man, big guy, hang on," Michael coaxed.

Soon they had him loaded up in the ambulance. Michael rode in the back and Raph drove in his car with Amistis and Angeleeka. She was to tears.

"Look honey, I'm not blaming you, but Cory and Suzy just cannot come up to the house that close from now on. They get just too spooked," Raph said.

When they parked and went into the emergency room, the staff noticed Michael. Soon they had Gabriel in a room. They already had to insert a breathing tube down his throat. A nurse, Moiya, was squeezing an ambu bag connected to the tube down Gabriel's throat as Michael was barking orders to get the poison counteracted.

They were able to reverse the effects but Gabriel was unconscious all night and remained on the vent until morning. Angeleka never felt so bad in all her life.

That was it! The last she'd ever speak to Cory and Suzy again! Suzy had nearly killed her and now Gabriel too. That was the last straw.

CHAPTER 5

 

Gabriel was sitting up in bed when Amistis came into the room.

"Hi," he spoke. He noticed she looked pale. "You feeling alright?" He knew she had a terrible disease.

"I'm going home. I just wanted to check on how your doing before I go," she said.

"I'm fine. You have someone to give you a ride?" he asked.

"Yes, Michael said he'd take me home, then come back," she said.

"Hey, how you feeling?" Michael asked Amistis after she got into his truck. Her chest was hurting. He could tell it was hard to breathe. He felt her forehead. "Okay kiddo, we're going back into the hospital, into ER. I need to check you," he said.

"Michael, I just need to go home and to bed," she protested.

"Nothing doing. You may need to be hospitalized," he said. That was the last thing Amistis wanted.

Michael didn't like the looks of things so he had her admitted. He was so cute! She had the awfullest crush on him. He seemed so, so angelic.

Michael called to the house after giving Amistis some medication. She was sleeping. Raphael answered.

"Oh Raph, yeah it's me, Michael," he said.

"You still at the hospital? Is Amistis with you?" he asked.

"She's bad. I had to admit her. She is having a flare up of her AMS. I just wanted to tell you I will not be coming home tonight. I'm going to stay here and keep an eye on her. In case
