"I've done all that I can for them at the moment," Doctor Tofu told the assembled group.
He had been in there for quite a while she had noted. And when he had, he looked rather tired.
"The girl is better than I thought she might be."
Oh yes, the woman who she had attacked with out mercy. While the unnamed girl had been drugged into it, what excuse did Akane have to hurt her like that?
"Her injuries will heal, but they will take time."
Yes, injuries that should never have been done. Ones that had been inflicted against someone not in control of their actions.
"I've bandaged the broken ribs, but I'm more concerned about the back injuries from... her landing. There is extensive brusing there, and there was a bit of compression along the spine."
She sank into herself as she watched her father's jaw tighten. He looked all stoic now. Much different than the annoyed man that had complained about not being able to even get past his second drink. But that had quickly passed as soon as he had been told the full import of what she had done.
"Still, there is quite an injury to her shoulder. While it isn't a dislocation, she will have some difficulty with moving it for a while."
So she had hobbled the girl as well as beating on her. By treating her like she was automatically like Shampoo or... Ukyo, she had done a great deal of damage to this young woman that she didn't know.
"On the other hand, Ranma looks to be worse off.'
And now onto her fiancee. The pervert that she was supposed to marry had turned into her punching bag.
"He does have a dislocation, along with a great deal of brusing and contusions. One of the major ones being his problem with his jaw."
That had been a great idea, hadn't it? Smack a boy who had always managed to survive being punched blocks away with a weight into the jaw. Only problem was that he couldn't even ready himself for the strike. He'd only laid there as she had been an animal and beat on him.
"Elder Cologne is preparing some herbs that should help him eat better. Still, he will have to eat soft foods for quite a while."
That had been a surprise, and if she had to be honest, not a good one. After Tofu had called her for assistance, she had arrived faster than expected, and gone right to help the hurt people. And the one time that she had seen the Amazon Elder after that, she had shivered at the look of anger, disgust, and oddly enough, dissappointment in those aged eyes.
"He does have some bad bumps on him, and he'll likely be in pain when he first wakes up, but I've managed to hit the pain reduction and sleep points on the both of them."
After all of her beatings, she had finally done it. She had shown him who the better fighter was. Then why did she feel so terrible about it?
"As for Nabiki, her guess was correct, and her ribs are broken as well. I've treated them, but she should keep strenous activities to a minimum."
Like she tried anything hard before. But it had been her own sister that had done that to her. One so out of control that she had hit her without even thinking.
"To be honest, out of the three of them, Nabiki is the in best condition out of all of them."
The middle Tendo scratched at her shirt and the bandages underneath. "I don't feel like the best."
"Don't worry, it's only temporary."
"I hope so."
"It is, but I have done all that I can for the moment. What you do next is up to you."
"What will we do?" asked a subdued Genma.
"Well, first off," said Nabiki, "We'll have to:
