"Indigo wake up its time for school!" her father shouted.

"Ugh why!?" was all the teenager groaned in response.

"Because its important. Now get your backside down here!"

Indigo Zap made her way down the stairs , but as she got to the bottom she started to feel a little dizzy.

"Whats for breakfast mum?" she asked her mother.
"Pancakes" her mum began , but then looked at her daughter with a little worry. "Are you okay honey? You look a little pale".

"Actually mum I do feel a little bit dizzy".

Lightning gently put the palm of her hand against indigos forehead. "You do feel a little warm, maybe I should call the school".

"What!? No!" thunder yelled. ''I had a phone call from principal cadence last week stating that she's already behind with her school work."

"Ok, but if you feel any worse later sweetheart get the school to call me and I'll come and pick you up ok?"

"Ok thanks mum bye!"

"Bye sweetie."

As the day past bye indigos dizziness wore off but she was starting to develop a sharp stabbing pain in the bottom right side of her stomach.

"Are you ok zap?" lemon zest asked her friend."You've hardly touched your cheese and ham sandwich."

"Yeah and you do look rather pale." Sugarcoat added in.

"I'm fine guys, don't worry about me. Come on were going to be late for maths.

They were about 20 minutes into the maths lesson and the pain in indigos stomach had increased. The teacher noticed this and approached the girl. "Are you ok indigo?"

"I don't feel very well miss." "lemon zest can you take her to the nurse?"

"Of course miss. Come on indy."

On the way to the nurses office indigo had started to shake and sweat a lot.
"Knock knock" "Come in !" the nurse called. "Lemon zest , Indigo zap! What can i do for the two of you?"

"Indigos not feeling very well nurse nancy." Lemon answered with great concern in her voice.
"Sit on the examination table and I'll take a look at you." Nurse Nancy instructed indigo zap.

Nurse Nancy got the thermometer and placed it in indigos ear. It read "42 degrees celsius" "Well you defiantly have a fever. I'll call your mother to come and pick you up."

"Ok thank you." As nurse nancy was heading towards the door to call indigos mum, indigo felt and intense pain shoot through her stomach again.

"Aah!" indigo screamed in agony.

"Indy are you okay!?" lemon screamed with worry.

"No" indigo whimpered.

Nurse nancy then rushed back over to them. She grabbed a bucket and held it under indigos chin just in time for her to throw up. "Where does it hurt darling?"

"My stomach on the right side at the bottom!"

"What are we going to do nurse?" lemon questioned.

"I think we might have to call an ambulance, I think she has appendicitis."

"999 whats your emergency?"

" I have a student here with a high fever and possible appendicitis"

"Students name?"

"Indigo zap"

"And the name of the school?"

"Crystal prep academy"

"Ok an ambulance will be with you shortly"

"Thank you."

Whilst nurse nancy was calling the ambulance lemon zest was doing her best to comfort her sick friend. She had indigo zaps head in her lap and was stroking her hair in a attempt to soothe her.
"It h-hurts!" indigo cried.

"Shhh, I know it does indy , but you'll be better soon I promise."
Lemon gently cooed as the doors opened to reveal nurse with two paramedics with a stretcher. They got indigo zap into the ambulance and placed an IV drip with morphine into her hand to try and ease the pain in her stomach a little bit. They then started to ask her a series of questions.

"Name?"

"Indigo zap"

"Date of birth?"

"18/12/2002"

"Adress?"

"15 Rocky Road , Crystal City"

"Ok and who do you do live with?"

"My mum and dad"

"And they are?"

"Lighting zap and thunder zap"

"Ok thats all"

Indigo lost consciousness shortly after that

Within minutes of arriving at the hospital zap was being rushed into the operating room. The doctor had confirmed it was appendicitis and a bad case of it at that. They needed to remove it as soon as possible.

"What happened!? Is she ok!?"
Lightning frantically asked the doctor.

"Her appendix was about to burst but we managed to remove it just time. She should be waking in about half an hour"

"Ok thank you" "This is all your fault thunder!"

"And how did you work that one out?"

" She said she wasn't feeling well this morning and you made her go to school!"

" Lightning all teenagers try to skive school especially when they have a test. How was I supposed to know she was genuinely ill?"

They continued to argue until the nurse came to speak to them."Mr and Mrs zap your daughter has come round from the operation."

Indigos woke up feeling a little groggy and her vision was blurry. When her vision finally became clear she saw lightning standing there with worry plastered all over her face. "Mum?"

She questioned the women standing in front of her. "Yes baby I'm here" lightning answered her daughter as she removed the hair out of her eyes.

"Wheres dad?" indigo asked her mum.

"He's gone to get some drinks sweetheart."

"Oh ok"

"Is something wrong darling?" lightning was worried again.

"Its just I thought he didn't believe me." Indigo answered her mother with tears in her ears.

" Oh baby of course he believed you , and he would never have made you go to school if he had known how poorly you were.

"Promise?"

"I promise. Now get some sleep." Lightning instructed as she bent down and kissed indigos forehead. Within moments indigo was fast asleep.

Lightning and Thunder then went back outside to speak to the doctor.

"Ok so she'll need to stay of school for two weeks and stay away from any physical activities for two weeks also" the doctor explained.

"She's not going to like that. Sport are her life" thunder said."

"I know" the doctor responded. " But don't worry she'll be back to her self in no time."

And within 4 short weeks indigo was back to her old energetic and cocky self.
