Isa was a bit exhausted from the confrontation and only now did she notice how lucky she was in this confrontation. It was clear that she was lucky about the fact that the Soldiers were too shocked to Stop her. Isa would look at Mac and Meyer as she listened to how they spoke about the Incident and what happened.
Isabella: Do punish that Woman, if you want my advice then send her to the Academy with the next batch of Medics to be Trained. To Give her a better Education might work better than to Punish her. Show her what it means to be a Protector of Life and what it means to have this kind of Responsibility.
Isabella was Angry about the Situation But she felt it was better to encourage her and teach her to be a better medic rather than punish her. Isa felt that it would make the Trenches even deeper when the woman would be punished, instead of this she would want to Build Bridges over this Gap and show her another way. She would smile at her friend and would give Niki a little head pat as she felt how the cat would rub her face on Isabella.
Isabella: I have Full Trust in Meyer that she will have the right tools to solve this Problem. I know that there is a lot of Fear and that the People are Scared, and I know that it is Problematic to find the Right Balance in these Times. But you are right we should leave this Unpleasant Situation for later and turn to more Pleasant things now. And don't worry I don't mind the things that I have done today, I have done what was needed to do. To help is nothing that I consider a Burden, and to be honest I am happy that I have gotten such an In-depth Insight into the Colony and the Problems that you have. Thanks to my Experiences today I can send a better Report to my Colleagues so that we can adjust the Education for your Personal. So you see it hasn't only been bad that it was not the day that you had originally planned for me.
Even when she was totally exhausted she didn't want to have the woman punished. Isa believes that everyone deserves a Second Chance and that it is always better to Educate people instead of Punishing them. Isa was happy that she would soon get a Hot chocolate and some Pie. She would follow Mac and Meyer to the Litle Cafe and smile as she sees the cute place from the distance.
Isabella: I also hope that there will be peace Talks soon. This war is totally Senseless and Stupid. I mean every War is Stupid and as a Doctor, I have seen enough of the psychological and Bodily Scars that a War Can Create. But I also know that you can't be Naive and have to Defend yourself from those who have thrown the Peace overboard. While my Personal Ship is not Armed the Healing Heart has the Weapons to Defend itself. But as a Doctor, I Follow the Oath of Hippocrates and only use those weapons when I have to protect my Patients. But now let us talk about other things.
Isa smiled and followed them into the Cafe and saw the owner Muriel. Isabella´s first impression of the Woman was that of a Friendly Grandmother who welcomes you with open arms and some cookies. Isa would leave the Ordering of the Drinks and Cake to Mac and Meyer and only asked for a bit of Milk in a Bowl for Niki. Her little companion had Earned some treats as well. Isabella Liked Muriel Right from the start and would greet her with a respectful Kusarian Bow. Isa smiled at Muriel as she saw her daughter bring out the Cake and the Smell of the Fresh Cake was so wonderful that it made Isabella hungry for the taste of it. She smiled at Muriel and would sit down with Mac to listen to the Story of Muriel and the sad past they had in Gran Canaria. She was sad to hear that this Machine was the only thing that was left of her Husband. Isa Could understand that her heart would break should something happen to the old coffee machine.
Isabella: You know people like Muriel will be your patients. From what I have heard and seen today in the Colony I can tell that there are many people who have buried their Trauma deep in their minds. But Trauma is often like a volcano, it might look calm on the Surface, but one day it will Erupt. So I am sure you will have lots of work once we Finish your Education.
Isa would smile as Meyer Came to the Table. She had waited with her Cake till her friend was on the table with them. She would make happy little moans as she tasted the Apple Pie. The Pie was Perfectly Balanced and together with the hot chocolate it was like a celebration of the taste in her mouth. Together with the Chocolate, it made an already yummy Pie into pure Joy. Not only Isabella was happy, but Niki was happy with her Bowl full of milk as well. The little Cat would make happy Purring Noises as she Licked up the Delicious Milk and her Tail would wag from left to right as she showed her Joy.
Isabella: dont worry Mac, I live by the Oath of Hippocrates and what kind of a Doctor would I be if I sat idle bye while people suffered when I could help them? And yes this Pie and the Chocolate have really refilled my Battery. I can only imagine how hard this situation is for Everyone to endure. And I believe that this situation brings back many bad memories from the Time on Gran Canaria. Not to forget the whole Paradox situation that your Place of Origin is now a Potential Enemy. It is only natural that people get Paranoid and Tense in their Daily lives. I really hope that there will be a Peace Conference Soon, then this War will Benefit No one, all that war ever does is Destroy and Hurt people. And I think Ghandi said it best "The world has enough for everyone's needs, but not everyone's greed." A war is mostly Fought because of one side's Greed, and nothing that Grows from Greed can ever be Healthy. But lets talk about something more Pleasurable than Human Greed.
She said with a Smile as she had hopes that this whole problem would be solved by peaceful negotiations in the end. There was already too much Blood because of the greed of some people. Isa would happily Finish her Cake and the Hot Chocolate and would wait for Niki and the others to finish their Drinks and the Cake before she would stand up and walk over to Muriel.
Isabella: This was the Most Delicious Hot chocolate and the Best Pie that I had that wasn't made by my mother. Doctor Wilson and I have a Long Journey ahead of us Tomorrow and I wondered if I could Reserve a Couple of Slices of the First Apple Pie of Tomorrow for the Journey.
Muriel´s Face lights up at the Compliment and she blushes a bit she answers Isabella while her Daughter brings Some Fresh cupcakes from the Kitchen. And the Sight of them made Isa order some of them for Tomorrow as well. As one could see Isa was a Sweettooth that loved Sweets and other Yummy things a lot.
Muriel: oh Sweety that is not a problem at all. Just tell me a Time and the Pie and Cupcakes will wait for you.
Isa smiled and would happily pay her and would give her a generous Tipp on top of it. Then she would Return to Mac and Meyer and would go with them to the Clothing Store. Isabella loved the signs and the Dresses and suits that were on Display as they entered. Isa smiled a the old woman and then she would feel how Niki became stiff on her shoulders as she had noticed a Smell in the air that was not Noticeable by the Noses of the Humans. And in fact, just a couple of Seconds later there Came a Big Gaian Lynx in Sight as it Walked from behind the Counter. The 6-legged animal had and beautiful dark purple Furr and some Sharp ears. Niki knew immediately that this animal was at least distantly Related to herself. The small cat would Jump from Isabella's Shoulders and would walk towards the Larger Cat as if she was at least the same size.
Lola: Don't worry Cesar is a friendly Guy, he has been my Companion for 40 Years now and he never harmed anyone.
And just as she had said it the Gaian Lynx would Lay down in front of Niki and would look at the smaller cat with friendly eyes. Soon the two of them would start to Snuggle together and give a sight that would make Isabella happy. She knew a bit about Gaian Lynx, and she knew that a bond between Lynx and Humans wasn't an Uncommon thing. And that the Lynx would form a Bond for Life and was the Most Loyal Company that someone could ever wish for. And while the Big Lynx and the Small Kitty had their fun I would walk through the Store and look at all the different dresses and clothes.
After a while Lola would get up and walk over to Isabella as she seemed to be a bit lost as she had never seen so many Dresses that were so beautiful. The Patterns and the Colors spoke to her and she seemed to have a liking for the more Colorful Clothes and the ones that hadn't too many Ruffles.
Lola: You look a bit lost Senorita. I think I know the Perfect dress for you and your little companion.
She said as she would lead her to the more Simple Dresses that had only Ruffles on the Bottom of the Dress. These were meant more for Daily life, at least that was Isabella´s impression of them. Lola would show her a beautiful Orange Dress with Purple Accents. Lola would also bring her a Classical Red and some other Collors to try on. Isa would go to to Dressing room and would Try them all on. She would enjoy the Feeling of the Dress on her body and would in the end decide on the Orange one, the Red one, and a Classical and Sexy Black Dress. Isa would also take some more Modern Clothes that she could wear at work every day. And some of the Scarfs would also wander into her Shopping Bags. She also bought some Shirts that had friendly colors and would be perfect for work. In the end, she would keep the Orange and Purple Dress on her body and put her old Clothes in the Bag. Isa had lots of Fun choosing new Clothes and watching how Niki and Cesar would Play and Cuddle with each other.
Lola: you have good taste Senorita, these are some fine Clothes. Some of my Best work if I am allowed to brag a bit. And I must say that I haven't seen Cesar that playful for quite a while. He is an Old man like me after all and isn't as fast as he once was. But your Kitty really gave him some of his Youthful Spirit back.
Isa smiled as she saw how Niki Climbs on the back of the Bigger Gaian Lynx and Teased the Big cat a bit. She would animate him to play with her and to react to the things she did. The Bigger Lynx would Buckle like a Horse and would try to Playfully get the smaller Kitty off his back. But the Body Language of the Lynx showed how much fun he had with this small Kitty. He was careful not to use his full strength to not Hurt Niki, but to also show her who was the Top Cat at the same time. Both of them had lots of fun and played for a long while as if they were Baby Kittens again. In the end, they were both exhausted and would cuddle with each other and rest together. Niki would sleep cuddled on the shoulder of Cesar and the bigger Lynx would Clean the smaller Cat while Niki Returned the Favor.
Isabella: Niki is a Special Cat. She can Sense what the people and Animals Around her need. That's why she works with me as a Therapy Cat. She is one of the most friendly and open Animals that I know.
Lola; i see. Well, my Cesar was always a Friendly Soul but I think your little Kitty gave him back some of his youth. He is such a Sweetheart. We have been together since my Time as a Corsair Pilot when we Boarded a Bretonian Trader and I found him in a Cage on board. Since that day he never left my side again. It was Deux Will that brought us two together, And after the Church was Reformed we both Joined. Cesar is a big Teddybear and I am happy that we found a place where we can spend the Rest of our Days Together. And my Granddaughter can even Study to become An Animal Doctor like she always wanted. She currently studies on Planet Los Angeles and when she Returns she wants to open the First Animal Clinic at Faith Haven.
Isabella smiled as she heard this and was happy that there would be even someone who cares for all the Fluffy Companions that kept the Citizens of Faith Haven Happy and Healthy. Isa would kneel next to the Gaian Lynx and give the Big Six-Legged Cat some pats and scratch that Spot between his Ears that all Feline Beings seem to love when it gets Scratched. She smiled and looked over to Mac and Meyer, this short shopping trip and the encounter with the Gaian Lynx seemed to have blown away all of the Tiredness and exhaustion that had Plagued Isabella before. The Big Gaian Lynx made a Deep and Happy Purring and licked Isabella's free Hand in a Gentle and Thankful Gesture.
