"OW! That so totally hurts!" -- Charles Xavier
The battle against the Ohm raged on, and the casualties on the ground were mounting. Injured crew members got emergency treatment in the field, which largely amounted to patching them up so they wouldn't die sometime within the next fifteen minutes. After that, they were quickly picked up by shuttle and brought back to the ship, where they were sent to a medbay that was getting progressively more crowded.
The situation was growing increasingly dire, to the point that Stacy activated one of the AI's to help out.
"Please state the nature of the medical emergency."

Her promise was received with his other hand reaching up to squeeze hers. "Thanks."
A pause while he listened to her advice. "I know I need to be patient, but it's frustrating. The Ohm are out there destroying worlds right now, and I need to be strong enough to fight them as soon as I can."

She smiled. "Hey, we're friends right? I'm sure you'd do the same for me."
But here she exchanged a serious face. "I share your frustration, believe me. There's nothing I'd like more than making sure those things don't hurt anyone ever again. But rushing is just a bad idea. Anything worth learning is dne the right way. This was our first lesson: the only reason I didn't get so banged up is because I'm a master waterbender and I'd been training in other disciplines for months."

"I'd never have the chance," he said wistfully. "You'd save yourself and then more than likely rescue me before I could lift a finger. But if I could, you know that I would. Not that I want to."
Well, that came out oddly. He must have been more tired than he first thought. "I'll trust you on this, teacher. But I'll always wonder if there's more that I can do."

Katara shook her finger at him. "Billy, you're a power ranger, something I can never be, AND you're really smart! There are some people here that don't thing they have anything to contribute, and you have two different ways. Don't be so quick to lose sight of your talents: they're very helpful."
Here, she grinned. "If that is what's bothering you, then come see me when we get on the ship after this. We won't have training at Kang's for a bit, so I can give you some help."

That thought dissipated with her next words. "You're more powerful than any individual Ranger, even the ones with far more experience than me. And you have the heart to be one of us as well. I'm positive that you would have been chosen if you'd lived on my world."
Honestly, that was one of the highest compliments he could possibly give her. He hoped that was apparent.
He nodded. "I'll bring my leg back to full strength as quickly as I can, and in the meantime I'll try to keep my arms in shape."

Katara gave Billy a compassionate look. "I wasn't always, Billy. Until recently, I was a novice in the Southern Water Tribe, the last waterbender thanks to the firenation. I had no teacher, no discipline and I was as scared as anyone here when we were invaded. But I was able to hold into hope, and when I became a master bender, I had my strength and my friends to thank. I'm sure you do too. But...thank you for saying that to me. We're both dedicated people, and that's what will make you stronger."
Her cheeks actually were glowing from the compliment. It had made her happy.
She nodded. "I've actually written up some martial arts scrolls for you. You might want to give them a look."

Anything to get better. Become more than he was. He couldn't let his learning fall to the wayside either, but if he was going to fight the Ohm to his full capacity he needed to bring his skillset into balance.
"Are you all right?" He'd worried about her for a while, despite how much stronger she was than him. All that healing had to take a toll.

She smiled, taking his hand. Billy may have been critical about his abilities, but she had faith in him. What he thought about, what he said, they reminded her of Sokka and his sword master.
She snapped back to what he was saying. "Oh...I'm all right. Kang made me eat and drink. I'm just doing what I can to help others, its why I'm not fighting now. I'm needed here."
no subject
"Sounds like Kang all right. Well...if you're not needed here, I'd better let you get back to work."
no subject
She shook her head. "Yeah, but he knows best. See you soon!"
