"What do you mean she's sick?!" Sky shouted.
"I don't know! I came downstairs and she was passed out on the floor, she looked like she had been crying or something! What did you do to her Sky?" Jane asked, obviously knowing it was Sky's fault.
"I did not say a thing to her." Sky lied.
"You're lying! Mary Poppins may die now! And it's all your fault!" Jane shouted.
"Hey! I didn't do anything, she just told me some news she had and I didn't take it to well." Sky retorted.
"What?" Jane asked.
"I can't say." Sky said folding her arms across her chest and turning the other way.
"Well I won't let you hurt Mary Poppins' feelings, you are hear by unable to see her anymore." Jane said.
"Oh I'd love to see you try." Sky said as she faced the 14 year old.
Jane stood in front of the stairs, but Sky was more clever, she took a few steps back and she let out a deep breath and she jumped onto the air and flew right over Jane's head.
"Hey! No fair!" Jane said as she tried to grab Sky's coat-tail.
"Is to, you were blocking my way, so I took advantage of the situation." Sky said.
Jane snorted like she did when she was little when she didn't get her way and let Sky go on upstairs, maybe her talking to Mary would help.
When Sky walked in the door, Bert was holding his wife's hand and she was asleep.
"Eh, I'm 'ere to relieve ya." Sky said changing her voice so maybe he'd laugh.
"Thanks Sky." He said as he got up, stretched, and walked out the door.
"Eh! Just cause you're sick doesn't mean you can get mad at me." Sky said nudging Mary, who opened her eyes.
"Hmph, I don't wish to talk to you." Mary snorted as she covered her head with the covers.
"If you don't take the cover off your head I will yank it off, got it?" Sky snapped as she sat in the chair.
Mary moved the cover just so Sky could see her eyes and added "You always had a temper, unlike me." She smiled, Sky could tell.
"Yeah, but can you tell me a little more about how I just found out we're sisters?" Sky said.
"I guess." Mary sighed as she pulled the cover down so Sky could now see her whole face.
"Thank you." Sky replied.
"Ok, what do you wish to know?" Mary asked.
"One, why was I put in an orphanage, and two, where did this locket come from?" Sky asked as she fiddled with it.
"Hmm, I can't explain the orphanage part, but the locket I can." She said.
"Ok, go ahead." Sky said.
"When you were born, I wanted to give you a present, I was only 6, and seeing as many 6 year olds love to give things away, I just followed along, so of course, I found a locket for you and gave it to you when you were born, but when you were sent to the orphanage, I got the locket back for some odd reason." Mary said.
"Really? Wow, you actually had a heart." Sky teased, Mary didn't find it at all amusing and she made an angry face at Sky and she flipped backwards out of the chair.
"See, I have rights as a sister, even when I'm sick." Mary said.
"Yeah, well get better and be back to your old, prim, proper, doesn't take any funny buisness self." Sky snorted as she rubbed the back of her head.
Mary laughed and she sat up straight. "You really want me to go back to being that way?"
"YES!" Sky shouted and with that she got up off the floor, walked over to the door, and when she opened it, three people screamed "OUCH!"
When Sky saw Jane, Michael, and Bert on the floor she stuck her tongue out at them. "See what happens when you eavesdrop?" She asked as she stepped over them.
"Is she ok now?" Michael asked.
"She's just fine." Sky said as she walked down the stairs.
"Oh that's wonderful!" Jane said.
"Yeah, told you I could do it." Sky said as she pretended to dust some dust from her shoulders.
"Thank you Sky Poppins!" Jane said and she hugged her.
Sky stared ahead. She'd never been called by her full name. It seemed strange, but she was proud she bared the name of Poppins, and she would never lose it.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door and Bert rushed down to answer it.
When he did so, there was a man and he looked tired.
"May I 'elp you sir?" Bert asked.
"Yes, is there a Miss Sky Poppins in this house?" He asked.
"I am she." Sky said.
"You are needed at an army hospital, there is a young man there, who says that you know him." The man said and he walked down out onto the street and into the twilight.
"Who would I know that's in the army?" Sky asked as she took Mary's overcoat off the stand, she almost changed her mind when she saw the orange inside, but threw it on, it was rather cold out.
"I'm not sure." Bert said, but he knew who it was all along, and was unsure if he should tell her.
"Hm, well I'll be back soon." She said as she walked outside.
"All right." He replied as he began to shut the door.
Sky walked into Greenwhich, it was not very crowded except for people who were nurses and such.
She continued on until she found the man who'd come to her door earlier and asked him where the man that she supposedly knew was.
He pointed her in the right direction and she walked into a room where a young man, she could tell, was yelling "Help me Sky!"
Sky rushed over and she pushed the nurses aside, but what she saw made her more scared then before. Lying on a operating table, with a patch over his eye and blood on his face, was her friend, Rob.
