Who sends a doctor on patrol anyway? [gory]

Coran Darrows sighed loudly, why the hell was he always the one sent on Patrol, it wasn't that he minded, he was happy to help, but there was no logic in sending him out there, he could barely fight, he wasn't extraordinarily fast, nor particularly strong. He was a doctor for hell's sake, not a soldier, not one of the guys that made up the rank and file of the Prestige, he was meant to have specialised skills, valued skills that meant he could stay at the base and patch up holes in the Prestige members who lost fights, not stay on the front line and get filled with holes himself, and who would patch him up if he did get shot? He's gotten to close to that with that girl Deidre and her boyfriend, whatever he was called, he didn't like Untouchables, even months later.

He propped himself up against a wall and waited, just keeping an eye out, sooner or later his shift had to end and then someone would turn up to relieve him, and he could go home and rest, maybe go out with some friends if he could avoid the Untouchables or the Peacekeepers catching sight of him, otherwise...well, that would hardely make for a fun night out...
