As Quinn slowly came to, the first thing she was aware of was a throbbing pain in her head. It was as if some sort of tiny demon was continually rapping his knuckles across her skull and it hurt like the Dickens, but the pain slowly ebbed away.

As she slowly opened her eyes, the onslaught of light nearly blinded Quinn, causing her to recoil in panic, eyes squeezing shut. "Oi. Can't close your eyes forever, you know." A somewhat harsh, but still partly gentle voice commanded, causing Quinn to open her eyes again.

Luckily, the light was far more tolerable. Unluckily, Quinn was face to face with a hedgehog in a lab coat, who was holding a needle in its trembling paw. The absurdity of such a sight made Quinn chuckle inwardly, but she watched the needle warily.

"Well?" The hedgehog continued. "Try sitting up on the stretcher. The medicine you were injected with should have given you most of your strength back, though you may still experience feelings of grogginess and weakness. My name is Dr. Helena Hedgehog by the way. Don't laugh: it'll hurt your stomach and it's rude besides." The prickly creature talked a mile a minute, but after a short delay, Quinn found she understood the words.

Quinn sat up, her head instantly spinning. She nearly toppled over from the unpleasant sensation, but the hedgehog quickly helped her patient right herself.

After a few moments, the feeling ceased and Quinn was given approval to try walking to the carriage, which was still waiting for her. Stumbling a few times, and with the medic at her heels, Quinn eventually made it, slowly getting inside and cautiously sitting down. A sigh of relief escaped her as the dizziness faded. The medic crawled in after her, sitting on the floor by her feet.
