Mother of The Bad Batch-a Bad Batch story (ON HOLD)

Chapter nineteen

"WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?!"

"HOW THE KRIFF AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW, CROSSHAIR?!"

"Guys you should really stop cursing in front of Omega!" Echo sighed, covering Omega's ears. "And calm down! Tech quick scan her for her injuries."

"HOW ARE WE S'POSED TO CALM DOWN WHEN SHE'S UNCONSCIOUS?!" Wrecker shouted, grabbing Echo by the shoulders and shaking the poor guy.

"S-STOP SHAKING ME WRECKER!" Echo yelled, everyone's heads snapped in Echo's direction, a mix of fear and panic on their faces,  Wrecker immediately stopped and patted Echo's shoulder nervously.

"Wrecker go entertain the kid, Hunter put Riley on a bed so Tech could take care of her." Echo sighed, rubbing a hand down his face. "What about me?" Crosshair asked. "Go...go help Hunter or something."

Crosshair rolled his eyes and helped Hunter carry Riley to one of the bunks, setting her down gently. "I don't understand how she got shot if she was wearing armor." He grumbled. "Well it was a little big on her." Hunter suggested.

"You should remove the chest plate, that way it will not be in the way of the scan." Tech told them as he walking into the cabin. Hunter nodded and removed her chest plate as gently as possible.

Tech brought the scanner over her and inspected the wound. "Well, thankfully the shot appeared to have missed her organs. I do need to patch this up right away though. Can one of you pass me the med-kit?"

Hunter handed Tech the med-kit and Tech took out bacta patches, bandages, cleansing wipes, and a...needle driver? "What's that for?" Crosshair asked, staring at the needle that Tech was now taking out.

"She needs stitches, do you have a problem with that?" Tech said blankly, looking up at Crosshair. "Shouldn't she get this done by a professional? In an actual medbay?" He grumbled, glaring at him.

"She should, however by the time we reach one it will be too late, therefore I should do it now." Tech explained. Crosshair's jaw clenched but he didn't say anything. "I will need total concentration. You two should leave." Tech said looking at Hunter and Crosshair. The two nodded and left to the cockpit.

{I'm sorry if this time skip makes no sense I wrote it at midnight}

It had been a while since Tech started suturing Riley, the rest of the batch didn't know how long it typically took to do stitches but it felt like this was taking forever.

"What if Mom wakes up while he's sticking a needle in her? What if he screws up? What if she flatlines-"

"She's not going to flatline Cross. Now sit down and relax!" Hunter told Crosshair, who was pacing back and forth in the cockpit. Crosshair begrudgingly sat down in his chair and crossed his arms, glaring daggers into the door to the cabin.

"You shouldn't be so worked up about this. We're all worried but Riley is going to be fine." Echo reassured him. Omega sat in the chair next to Crosshair and offered him her hand. He just grumbled and took her hand in his, earning a smile from Omega.
