章 503: Barging

Induna's soldiers had gone looking for Khan as soon as they reported back to the Headmistress, and finding him in his injured state caused quite an uproar. The entire outpost ended up moving to get him doctors and someone who could fly him to the Harbor.

"Are you comfortable, Captain?" The pilot asked when the ship was ready for set-off.

Khan didn't know what to say. He found his situation annoying, but George wouldn't be able to hold back the laughs at it. He was on his ship but not in the pilot's seat. Induna's soldiers had loaded a bed in the cargo area, and he was stuck on it.

A doctor had put a metal structure around Khan's ankle to keep it still before bounding it to the ship's ceiling, forcing his leg to stay lifted. A slimy ointment that radiated a pungent smell covered his body too, causing an itching sensation that annoyed him to no end.
