"It looks like it's just been mildly sprained. I'll give you something to take the edge off the pain, and I'll ask to see if I can get you some ice or a cold press to put on it. You'll be right as rain in a few weeks, but for now, stay off it. Okay?" 

The man nodded at Kat, both of his twin heads bobbing in sync. He had been shoved down by another of the inmates here after they both had gotten in an argument. The man's boyfriend hovered behind Kat, nervously blinking his eight eyes. 

Kat pushed up from the plastic lawn chair, turning away from the injured man laying in bed to face the anxious psuedo-arachnid. 

"So Frank is going to be okay?"

Kat had been summoned from her tent by one of the numerous children who darted about the camp as runners, telling her that a man had been injured in a fight and needed attention. 

So she had grabbed her first aid kit, and rushed out to the scene.

"Yeah, Marty. He's gonna be fine." 

Marty let out a heavy sigh, and impulsively embraced Kat. She had frozen for a moment, but then returned the hug. 

As Marty pulled away, he asked, "I know we don't have much.. But I want to offer you this." 

Crouching down, Marty pulled out a bundled t-shirt from underneath the bed. Unwrapping it, he withdrew a baggie of what one might naively mistake for oregano. 

Kat hesitated a moment, weighing several factors in her mind before nodding politely and accepting the baggie. 

"Thank you. I can get a lot more medical supplies with this. I've managed to find a pediatrics textbook I'm studying, and I'm talking to some of the other medical professionals in here, but I can't do much if I don't have anything to give people."

After accepting Marty's final thank you's, handing him a small handful of pills and instructions on how to administer them and one last look at the Frank's ankle, Kat stepped out of the minimal coolness the tent offered and out into the raw desert air. 

 Tucking the baggie into her boot, she lets out a heavy sigh, and heads off toward the best place to fence the weed. Rufus's 'HQ'.
