Max rolled her eyes. "I thought we were over that whole nudity thing..." She whispered, picking up the heavy weapon with her magic, "Ponies are meant to be naked, Ace!"
"Yes I am....with you" he said as he carried the pony "But it's also who knows how cold and do you want her getting a cold as well as what ever your looking for?" He asked as he tryed to ignor how heavy the pony was And now that they knew were they were going it would take a much shorter time getting to the vet
"Hmm... fair point..." Max conceded, shifting the launcher on her back; it was too large to fit in her saddlebags. This time when they reached the clinic, the roboponies on patrol let then straight through, although one of them stopped to scan the raider. The doors opened automatically upon their approach too, and Marae was standing just inside, waiting for them.
Ace carefully gave the mare to the robot and sighed with relief as his straitened up His horn glowed as he took the mini nuke launcher away from max He didn't feel comfertable with her carrying such a deadly weapon
Marae took the weight of the mare with ease, and trotted off towards the room she'd prepared. "What are you going to do with that anyway?" Max asked Ace as she started following the robomare, and looked at the launcher, "It's a little big to be carrying around all the time..."
"Yup....I'm going to dismantle it....if we find more ill do the same....although this one I'll keep on hoof in case we ever need it" he said to her as they walked It's a useful weapon....but the world needed it's use to be limited He would keep some key components separated in case somepony thought it would be fun to shoot it
Max nodded. "We've only got a couple of those little bombs for it anyway," She said, floating them over to him as they neared the room Marae was taking the raider to.
The room used to be an operating theatre, but one designed for teaching; it was large, and had glass windows for observers on two sides. Inside, the surgery table was still in place, complete with restraining straps. On the way into the room, there was a preparation area, and it was here that Jay stripped the armour off the mare and started cleaning the grime and blood from her coat and mane.
The amount of dirt on the mare was fanominal...even more then jay The mare had threatened to wake up and had even opened her eyes but aces quick thinking made her get another dart in the neck "Phew...that was close" ace said practicly laughing
Max jumped a little as the dart hit the mare she was cleaning, missing her by only a few inches. "Ace, please be careful with those," She said, frowning slightly, "Too much will kill her, or at least put her in a comma." She finished cleaning the mare, and then cut her mane and tail shorter, getting rid of the spikes and tangles; for the treatment to be successful, she felt she must remove all visual traces of the mare having been a raider. Finally, she wheeled the mare into the mane room, took a blood sample, and left her restrained, but not uncomfortable; she didn't know what frame of mind the mare would be in when she woke, and she didn't want her harming herself or damaging the room.
"You can watch her to see when she wakes up, if you want," Max said to Ace as she left the room, the door sealing behind her, "I need to run some tests on her blood." She turned to Marae. "Marae, do you have a lab in the clinic?" "Oui, of course!" The robomare said, smiling, "Please, follow me,"
Ace tapped his hooves on the ground Most of this stuff he had seen at some point in the hospital but he still didn't know what any of it did So he went to one of the observasion rooms and pulled out his shotgun pistol sniper and sword to clean and maintain them He left the nuke launcher alone for now
Half an hour or so later, Max returned, and sat near Ace. "I'm just waiting for the full results, but she's remarkably healthy, considering," She said, looking through the window at the raider mare, "Some mild radiation damage, but she's not malnourished or sick in the conventional sense..."
Ace looked up He was messing with the shot gun "That's good.....so her actions thru her own means or did you find what you wanted to find?" He asked as he set the berrer down and looked at her
"Oh I'm not finished yet," Jay said, quickly, "She's healthy enough in the sense that she doens't have a cold, or an extra leg courtesy of excessive radiation exposure, but I still need to find out if something's affecting her mental state, and if anything can be done about it." She sighed, and looked at the mare through the window. "Really, this is a job for a physician and a psychiatrist, but I'll just have to do the best I can on my own."
"I'm sure you can max" ace sai smiling at her as he got up and hugged/held her from behind before kissing the back of her neck "Though if last time was any measure that drug is going to wear out soon" he pointed out as the mares head moved a bit but didn't stir much past that
