The Sunshine Crew turns fantastic


The next morning Capa woke and tried to sit up straight, but instantly became aware that he was restrained to the bed. He closed his eyes tightly and started to panic, but was quickly hit with flash after flash of what he did the night before. He paled and quickly tried to clam himself, not wanting to trash another room. Also he realised much to his mortification and guilt that one of the nurses had been harmed by him, even though it was an accident and had not been intentional

He called out with a strained voice, from lack of use and desperate need of water. “Please, is there anyone there?” Moments later two male Doctors entered the room, they didn’t dare allow female nurses in, less they had to.

They entered the room cautiously and watched in horrified fascination, as Capa flexed his wrists and imagined the buckles opening, and much too even Capa’s amazement, they did just that, unbuckling by them selves.

The Doctors started to back out of the room and Capa called out in a plea “Please I won’t harm anyone, or cause the damage I did last night. I don’t honestly know how I did what I did, but I do know that I can control whatever is happening to me, if I remain completely calm and in control of my emotions. And in order to completely do that, I would appreciate it if you did not physically restrain me; as it only makes me uncomfortable and places me on edge.”

One Doctor reluctantly agreed before asking “Ok Mr. Capa, but before we ask you any questions and examine you, can we get you anything, do you need anything?” Capa nodded and replied “Yes, I could use some water, my throat is absolutely throbbing.”

The other Doctor went to get him some water, relieved to be out of the room, and Capa knew it as well, it was as if he could sense both of the Doctor’s emotions, as if they were his own.

Capa froze when he heard the thoughts of the Doctor who remained in the room, who was walking towards him ‘Christ, I hope this guy doesn’t go ballistic on me. What he did last night was brutal and inhuman’

Capa sighed and told the Doctor in a cold tone of voice “Just examine me, get your questioning out of the way, then get out of my sight, I won’t be able to go ballistic on you then.” The Doctor’s eyes practically bugged as he sputtered “Mr. Capa, I did not saying anything, I don’t understand.”

Capa waved him off and said “For some reason that I can’t seem to grasp, I could hear what you were just thinking. I could also sense the emotions of both you and the other Doctor, as if they were my own.

He couldn’t wait to get out of the room, and you’re terrified of me, worried that I may go ballistic on you. You think what I did last night, which by the way was beyond my control, was brutal and inhuman.”

The Doctor paled and shook his head in disbelief. He sighed and scrubbed a hand across his face before he asked “Can you remember anything at all Mr. Capa?” He walked slowly towards Capa, still weary of what the other man was capable of.

Capa sighed and sat up and moved the quilt aside and swung his legs over the side of the bed, before standing and slowly and carefully walking over to the chair by the window and lowering himself into it.

He sighed and rolled his eyes as the Doctor gaped at him. Capa all but snapped “Are you going to examine me or not, I don’t appreciate you staring at me, as if I am some kind of freak of nature, thank you very much?”

He sighed once again and pinched the bridge of his nose between his thumb and index finger before he said “And to answer your question, what do you want to know and where do you want me to start? As I remember every second of that mission, and when I say every second I do surely mean every second.”

He continued after a brief pause. “I am currently finding it impossible to forget even the smallest and simplest of details. Christ never has my memory ever been so clear or vast before. My actual mind feels like it’s somehow been cleansed. I’m seeing everything more clearly then I ever have in my entire life.”

The Doctor relaxed slightly and sat in the chair opposite and nodded to the other Doctor, as he re-entered and wearily made his way over to Capa. He stalled so much, that Capa became infuriated and with a flick of his wrist, he summoned the plastic breaker from out of the Doctors hand and straight into his own, after imaging the beaker being removed from the other man’s hand, then it floating across the room to him, and straight into his out stretched hand.

The Doctor let out a startled yelp, while the other Doctor eyed Capa in a kind of weary fascination. He wasn’t as frightened anymore, just weary and extremely fascinated. Capa sensed this and eyed him over the rim of the beaker, as he slowly sipped the water, relishing the blissful feeling of the cool water soothing the throbbing in his throat.

After a couple of more sips he lowered the beaker and said “Ok, here is what we’re going to do. You” he pointed to the Doctor who brought him the water “Are going to leave now, as I’m certain there are other members of the crew who need you or aren’t awake yet. You’re obviously of no use to my case, as you are on the verge of messing your pants.”

He took another sip of water before finishing “And worst of all, your emotions are out of control, and I can sense them, which is driving me absolutely up the wall.” He gestured to the other Doctor in the chair and said “At least he is trying to think and act rationally, and he is just as disturbed by this as you are. Now please leave, your emotions are spilling out all over the place, and it is giving me a headache.”

The other Doctor apologised before awkwardly leaving the room. Capa then turned to the other Doctor, who remained sitting opposite him. Capa gestured for him to go on. The Doctor cleared his throat and said “Ok then. I am Dr Parker Rosenberg; I shall be your Doctor for the remainder of your stay and whatever treatment you may still require.”

He paused for a second, eyeing Capa, before continuing “Plus it seems I’m the only one who has been able to control my emotions around you without putting any strain on you.”

Then Doctor Rosenberg cleared his throat before continuing again “Now Mr. Capa, or would you prefer Robert?” Capa replied “Capa will do fine.” Doctor Rosenberg nodded before taking a deep breath, mentally preparing what he was going to ask and how to ask.
