One of Hayes Pokemon had moved over toward her, the newly traumatized grunt looked up at the small bell, she watched it, and uncertain of why it cared or what Faleen herself would do with its obvious worry.
But as if accepting a hug from a random young child, the young women remained still, looking back at it.
That was, until she door opened roughly, snapping her unpleasantly from her thoughts, with a sharp jerk that she instantly regretted. “Ah!”
With her hand returned to support her side, Faleen found Kofuku not standing in the room once again, and looking… angry?
“Kofuku?”
Umbreon’s eyes widened when Kofuku burnt in, jumping around to face her, wondering what the hell was going on! Why were so many people in his masters room!

The anger that flashed in Kofuku's eyes was only the start of what was to come. "You told me you'd look after her so she wouldn't be hurt." Flinging her arm out, she pointed at Faleen. "Does she LOOK unharmed? She almost DIED out there, Hayes. DIED, Game over, no replay. The. End." At this point, Kofuku was so upset she was actually shaking as she spoke.
Then, without another thought going through her mind, she turned her back to Hayes yanked the chocolate Syrup off of the table where the sweets had been placed. Unscrewing the nozzle top, she spun and threw the contents of the bottle at Hayes, aiming for his face. "Jack a**!"
Hiromi walked up next to Umbreon and sat down, watching with wide eyes as her human completely lost it and acted in pure anger. ["Oh wow...."] Was the only thing the Eevee could think of saying.

Noel hovered near Faleen, uncertain for a moment, then drew closer. The little bell Pokemon bumped softly against the girl's arm, stubby little limbs giving the best hug she could. "Liiing." When Faleen jerked back, the tiny psychic-type went flying into the heartrate monitor with a jingle and a squeak.
Hayes' brow furrowed slightly; he put up his good hand in a calming gesture. "Okay, I think maybe we miscommuni-geeze!" His reaction was based on instinct; he sidestepped, arms coming up to shield his face. Being that only one limb was in the shape to do that, it provoked a grunt of pain.
The syrup splattered over the blond's arms, into his hair and across most of his shirt. He stood there in silence for a moment, unmoving. Then a muffled, measured voice said, "..what the hell?"
Switch, who had bolted at the first sign of projectiles, crept back now to lap at some of the dripping chocolate.

First distraction, was the pokemon, she saw it bounce off the heartrate monitor, but her attention could not be spared for much longer, when a rage that Faleen had not seen in Kofuku yet filled the room.
Faleen's eyes grew wide when she heard what her friend was saying. mouth falling open.
"What!?" she said, but before she could say much more, chocolate was suddenly thrown against Hayes.
"KOFUKU!" she snapped, mouth falling open in shock.
Umbreon's ears lowered, not amused, he glanced over to Hiromi as she walked over to him. growling suddenly and pushing to his feet when chocolate was suddenly thrown across the room. thankfully only hitting the blond human male.

Dropping the now empty chocolate syrup container, Kofuku snarled at Hayes as she spoke. "Get. Out." Still shaking, there was something almost feral in her eyes, and she could hardly even hear Faleen calling her name. All that was going through her mind was how incredibly angry she was. Jaw clenched and teeth grinding, she waited to see if Hayes would heed her warning and leave. If not... well there was ice cream and cake on the table that she could sacrifice.
Hiromi jumped when Hayes was hit with the chocolate. Never before had she seen her human act out as such.

Noel floated dizzily back toward Faleen, her faint jingle breaking the silence.
Slowly, Hayes lowered his arms, revealing bangs dripping syrup and an impassive expression. There wasn't much the blond could see with chocolate streaking down his glasses; he pulled them off and turned a level hazel gaze on the blur that was probably the offending grunt, then bent his head and started cleaning the lenses on a dry portion of his shirt.
"Kofuku," he said quietly. "C'mon. Don't make me pull rank."

 And then Claris stepped into the room, his gaze shifting very quickly from the vehement Kofuku over to the chocolate covered now Agent Hayes, and then to Faleen who was resting in bed looking mortified by the whole thing. It was rather apparent that the commotion he had heard coming down the halls had been from this room now, much to his dismay. It figured however, wherever one of the core group of rockets he dealt with was, trouble was sure to follow. He had stepped in just in time to hear Hayes 'plead' with Kofuku as it were and he sighed heavily, his arms crossing as the plastic that held the flowers he had brought for Faleen crinkled beneath his grip.
"Well, somehow this is not what I would have liked to see just coming into a hospital room..."
He eyed the angry purple haired woman in front of him with some concern before shaking his head. Turning he moved around the problem area and walked to the side of Faleens bed and offered out the flowers to her, focusing on the reason why he was in the room to begin with.
"How are you feeling...?"
The flowers were a bouquet that he had picked out, a varying blend of Yellow and White roses, various iris's and lilies. He figured that the room would need some touch of life and color while she rested. Shortly after he had asked his question, Azra carefully peeked into the room, took one look at the 'Disaster' within and then snorted, turning and walking the other way just to stay out of trouble.

Overwhelmed, trying to catch up with what was going on, she didn't notice Noel by her anymore, her chest rising and falling rather quickly with increased breath and heartbeat.
It wasn't that she didn't have anything to say, there was just to much, she didn't know where to start, or how to word it.
In the time it took her to string it together as she tried to settle herself down, she was stopped with that last statement Hayes had uttered… pull rank? He was a Grun-
the tension in her face broke with a flicker of understanding, light eyes growing slightly wider.
He’d been promoted, obviously.
This of coerce was worse for Kofuku.
“What were you THINKING!” she suddenly snapped from where she sat on her bed,
keeping her hand on her side to stabilize the painful ach that rippled through her body again.
The frustration on her face melted away after that as she turned to her closest friend and the agent covered in chocolate, eyes becoming soft in disappointment.
“I never asked to be looked after!”
In the confusion, she suddenly found that someone else was in her room.
Head tilting back as she slumped a bit, frazzled hair falling from behind her ear to dangle into her face, The Grunt reached up to brush it back, only to find a bouquet of flours being presented to her.
she sat, blinking at them for a moment, looking unsure of what to do, even as she looked up at the one giving to her, she recognized Claris.
being careful not to tangle herself in her IV, she reached out, and took the Flowers, almost awkwardly, not at all expecting this, it was so typical hospital setting though.
“… Timing is a bit awkward Claris” she told him, but gave him a thankful look, before glancing back over at the others.
“Kofuku, stop, sit down before I get up and make you” using what she hoped would be a good threat.

Kofuku hardly acknowledged Claris when he came in, barely giving him a glance. At the moment, her focus was entirely on Hayes. From behind her, Faleen was getting upset at her, but the only thing that really registered was her friend telling her that she never asked to be looked after. Spinning, she looked at Faleen with narrowed eyes. "Well, I didn't ask to have my BEST FRIEND come back shot in her side in critical condition. But, surprise, she did."
Turning back to Hayes, she snorted. "You don't have rank on me, you're a grunt too, remember." Reaching over, she took two big handfuls of the cake and threw the first one at Hayes. "Now get" she threw the second handful at him "OUT!" As far as Kofuku knew, Hayes was a grunt; because she'd spent the last few days since their return in the infirmary looking over Faleen, she had no idea that Hayes had been promoted; it wasn't like he was wearing the uniform of an Agent.

Suddenly the door swung open again and a petite woman with short, curly red hair burst in.
"What in Ho-oh's name is going on in here! The entire ward can hear you!"
It was the doctor, and she looked absolutely livid as she glanced between the Rockets in the room. Her gaze landed first on Hayes who was covered in chocolate syrup and Kofuku who had just thrown cake at him.
"YOU!" she pointed at Kofuku. "Out! Right now! This is a hospital, not a circus! Mark my word you're getting written up for this! And I don't want to see you back here for the next week!"

Hayes glanced briefly at Claris when he entered, recognizing him more by voice than sight, but the grunt was least likely to inflict vehemence and cake on him and was therefore the least of his worries.
"Calm down. You're gonna get everyone kicked out," he warned the girl as she hefted the cake, voice patient. Glasses off, he couldn't dodge well, but he shifted slightly. "And no-"
One handful of cake smacked into his bad shoulder, causing the Rocket to wince; the other flew wide, trailing crumbs and frosting. Switch rose up on his haunches like a fan at a baseball game when the batter has just hit it into the stands. C'mon c'mon c'mon..
"-not anymore."
The Pikachu looked almost disappointed when the doctor burst in and it missed her.
Hayes's glasses were as clean as they were going to get. He put them back on and looked at Kofuku, including the upset Faleen in the glance. "I need a shower, but let's talk about this later."

With Kofuku behaving as she was, the respect that she had earned in their training battle was very quickly diminishing. She hadn't earned much to begin with, so it wouldn't take long for that to run out if she continued. Not to mention she was starting to piss him off, considering she was not only disrupting Faleen but assaulting his superior. Had the nurse not come in and commanded her to leave, he would have hauled her out himself. He let out a heavy sigh and knelt down by the bed to offer Faleen a half smile.
"Yeah, sorry about the timing... Looks like they beat me in here today... I've been coming by to check on you as much as I can. How are you holding up? Outside of this erm... Episode I mean."
His head tilted off to one side as he peered at her, awaiting her response and Kofuku's inevitable exit at this point.

And cake was then thrown, Faleen almost acted upon her threat to get up and get her, but before she could even more, someone else entered the room at the chaotic scene, The Doctor, and Faleen didn’t dare move from where she was sitting.
She watched; stiffly quiet as people were yelling at one another, getting stuff throw at them. She frowned when Hayes’s injured shoulder was hit, her own bullet wound throbbing in sympathy pain.
There wasn’t anything she could add to the chaos to make it calm down anymore, just letting the doctor handle what had to be done.
Kofuku was going to be kicked out of the ward for a week… and she’s going to get written up…. why did she do that, cause so much trouble for herself, and for everyone else, over something like this…
Faleen slowly leaned back against the inclined back of her bed. Hands clenched tight around the flowers Claris had just given her, warn out, and just frowning softly.
She eyed Hayes when he said he needed a shower, but that he would be back later to talk. That was a good idea… she had something she wanted to make very clear to him and Fuku.
But what made her wonder more… was his attitude, he was covered in chocolate and food, it had to be humiliating, yet he didn’t even raise his voice to Kofuku… she can’t imagine how much restraint that must take, something most Rockets didn’t have a lot of…
she nodded to Hayes to show she understood, feeling bad for him. Then turned to Claris when she heard him speaking to her.
“I’m fine…. it’s difficult just sitting here, but I’m going to be alright, just going to take some time…” she replied, not worried about her condition. She had… way more troubling issues to worry about then a bullet hole in her side.

Standing there, her hands covered in chocolate icing and cake, she stood in shock at Hayes as his last comment hit her. At first she wasn't going to believe him, but the look of seriousness caused her stomach to drop.
And then the doctor came in and screamed at her. Hardly listening to the lady, she just stared at Hayes. Finally snapping back, she glanced to the doctor and her face turned back into a frown. "Whatever, I was leaving anyways..." Looking from Hayes to Faleen, she held out a pokeball and called Hiromi back into it. "I don't know about either of you any more." Turning, she walked out of the room, her fists gripped tight enough to turn her knuckles white. All she wanted to do way go to her room, blare the music, and forget about everything and then maybe, just maybe, the giant pit in her stomach would go away.

The doctor was not impressed, and glared at Kofuku as she left. Quite the drama queen, that one. The woman then threw up her hands as she surveyed the mess. This was just lovely. There was cake and chocolate everywhere.
"I want the rest of you out of here too. Now we have to clean up this mess, and the patient needs her rest anyway. You can come back tomorrow as long as there are no further incidents." This being directed at Claris and Hayes obviously.
