Guardian Clinic, Angel Falls Guardian HQ

Caroline walks into the Guardian Clinic for a weekly checkup still going through the program trying to recover from her state that Maddie or Phyrefrost found her. Thinking about her record and ordeals thinking that she is more of a liability, not a heroine. Gustav smiles looking at his master.

Caroline pets Gustav as she tries to smile only with Gustav jumping on Carol's lap, trying to be his happy self. Crawling on her lap.

She smiles petting her oversized lapdog saying “You're a good puppy.”

The Doctor comes in who specializes in Mages Dr. Ernst enters saying “Guten Morgen Caroline.”

Caroline looks at the doctor saying “Hallo Dokter Ernst. How is your day?”

Ernst smiles as he puts on his stethoscope “Doing good, just been living my life, trying to help persons of magic ability.” as he notices her pistols “CZ75’s as I see what happened to the Luger pistols?”

Carol replied “Yes the attacks have been happening more…. And my new Lugers come with an awkward story.” blushing when she said that “So I had to fight with better gear to composite my reduced magic usage.”  

Ernst nods as he puts the stethoscope in near her heart area “Hmm… let's see what is reducing your magic usage, since the last checkup reveal that you have a large magic reservoir. Which you need to access maybe you should focus on aerial attacks.”

Sitting back Carol responds “Then I should just use Storm rifles since weapons gotten so advanced since my time.”

Ernst smiles saying “But as you seen on TV of the usage of black rifle's has given itself a bad name and one of your long guns can help you as having a classic look. Now could you give me your arm so that I can get a sample to do a quick test.”

Complying Carol pulls up sleeves revealing her scars which she is always scared to show them if she could help so not to scare the people of the city.

Ernst simple took a blood sample saying “A classic look can go a long way Fraulein since you can spark a lot of interest. And keep your beautiful theme.”

Smiling as she rolled up her sleeve “Really I never thought of that?” says Carol. Gustav smiles panting looking at the doctor.

As Ernst looks at the samples “Yes, in all my years of seeing the heroes of Angel Falls, they always had an identity Caroline, you are just trying to find a look.”

Carol nods saying “Yes…. I know… I just don’t want to be treated like a little girl.”

Ernst nods looking in the samples noticing black spores in her blood. As he sighs “Yes this is a powerful curse on your body, and it will take a powerful white mage to remove them.

“I tried to remove them myself, but they consistently strike back. It goes to effect when I try to save people.” replied Carol looking a bit worried.

Ernst takes her hand saying “Don’t worry Carol you will do good.”

Carol smiled as she saying “Whats the diagnosis?”

“Well, you have a curse, and it is unpredictable,” says Ernst. Petting Gustav who is wagging his tail.

Carol frowns as she hears the result saying “How can we find a high ranking arch restoration mage…..”

“Are you one? Little Caroline?” Ernst replied.

Carol rolls up her sleeves “No I’m not, I’m an adept just enough to heal battlefield wounds.”

Sensing Caroline's distress Ernst smiles saying “There is a cure in Atlantis, maybe…”

“It's OK.” says Caroline as she gets up and takes her pistols “I don't need it….”

Ernst takes a tablet from his medicine cabinet saying  “Please take this it will help with the pain, you will need to meditate as well, and don’t overwork yourself.”

Carol takes the tablet smiling “Thank you, and Ich wird nicht.”

She walks out of the Office taking the pill “How will I be able to help people when I’m such in pain myself." she huffs heading down the hallway "I have to go to work."

Vignette end.
