Chapter Six-Hangover

I freakin hate Mondays. Monday is the day that I have to visit the doctor. It doesn't help that I have a hangover.

The sunlight streamed into my room, making it difficult to continue sleeping. My head felt as if I had been bashed in the head multiple times.

Fluffy, the lazy fox that he is, decided that he would sleep on my stomach, crushing what little space I had left.

This is why I don't like drinking. It gives these massive hangovers to me, making me incapable of thinking properly.

Knowing my luck, some shit will probably come up.

I think I jinxed myself because dad came into the room, a guilty look on his face. My eyes narrowed at him, making him gulp.

"Leonie…the Hughes family have gone already, Gracie wanted to say goodbye." He said, looking anywhere but at me. "And…I have something to tell you."

"What did you do?" I demanded, my voice hoarse.

I sounded like my grandmother Loriel after she had her cigarettes. God bless her soul.

He shuffled a bit before pulling a white envelope out of his pocket. He handed it too me before turning his gaze towards the floor.

I glared at him before opening the letter. It took a while to actually read the letter because my vision decided to blur a little.

Dear Leo,

So, how have you been? Me? I'm fine, well I am surrounded by my precious items after all. Anyway down to business, you know that item I had you pick up a few weeks back? Well, the police have given up so bring it down here by Monday.

-Boss Greed

My hands shook in anger as I read the letter. The bastard wants me to go down to Dublith?

Wait, it says 'by Monday,' but today is Monday…my eyes widened in realisation while I heard dad gasp. I sent him a heated glare.

"When did you get this?"

"…Five days ago! But I didn't want you to get stressed over it! Please calm down Leonie!"

But I couldn't calm down, because now I would need to go to the doctors, pack and get on the nearest train!

Climbing out of bed, ignoring the protests of dad, I slipped on a red shirt with trousers and a black jacket. I then grabbed a rucksack from my closet and stuffed some clothes, hygiene items and my pistols inside.

Finally, I turned to the back of my closet and banged it lightly. A little compartment opened, revealing a hidden storage area.

It probably helped that I had made Rue make it before he left.

The only item in there was a priceless diamond, a really rare item to obtain. I had wrapped it in a cloth so that dust wouldn't come to it or better yet, fingerprints.

Taking it out carefully, I place it in a separate box made of steel. Hopefully the diamond won't come to any damage.

"Right, while I go to the hospital, can you go to the train station with my bags and get my ticket booked?" I asked, turning to dad.

He nodded but still looked worried. I sighed, wincing a little at the throbbing in my head. "I'll be alright-shit!"

The next thing I know, is that I'm over the toilet hurling my guts out. God, why did I even drink last night? This wouldn't have happened if dad had given me the letter earlier…

"Leonie, I think you should stay home." Dad said, coming into the bathroom.

"No. I wanna get it out of the way."

Stomping out the bathroom, almost tripping over Fluffy, I headed towards the phone and tried to think what Iris's phone number was.

"Bollocks, what the heck was her number again?" I grumbled, trying to think what the number was again.

Eventually it came to me but at the cost of my headache getting worse. I dialled the number before pulling the phone to my ear.

"Hello?" Iris's voice spoke up, sounding tired.

"Iris, I need you to take me to the hospital and then drop me off at the train station." I said, getting straight to the point.

"Is that you Leonie? It's good to hear from you when you have a hangover! I'll be right over!"

Iris had a talent. The talent to give me a headache just by talking to her. But she was a good kid.

So I waited for Iris to show up, having my breakfast and lazily dosing off.

"Leonie, before you go, make sure to take these with you." Dad said, holding out a box of injections with the liquid. I cringed before reluctantly putting the box in my pocket.

When Iris turned up, I was ready to fall asleep again.

"Come on sleepy! We need to go to the doctors!" Iris said, grabbing my hand and dragging me out the door. The first thing that hit me as soon as we left the house was the cold.

Damn! It was freezing!

"I'm going to go into a coma the time we get there!" I moaned, leaning on Iris. She laughed, guiding me down the street.

"So, tell me what's been going on lately!" Iris said, looking for a new conversation.

So I told her everything from when I saved Selim to when I woke up with a hangover.

"No wonder you sound grouchy, though you always sound grouchy." She commented, smiling at me.

..

Lucky for Iris, we had arrived at the hospital after an hour of walking. I sighed at the familiar white building before turning to Iris. "Thanks for taking me to the hospital."

She smiled. "No prob."

"Could…could you do me a favour?" I asked her quietly.

She blinked. "Err, sure."

"Could you look after my dad? I'm afraid he'll do something drastic."

She laughed. "Alright then. How long will you be gone for?"

"Three days. I'll be back on Wednesday."

I walked towards the hospital entrance before stopping. I turned back to Iris as she was about to leave and smirked.

"Cut your hair!"

"NEVER!"


Dr Ravi smiled at me while I sighed in boredom. I hated going to the hospital, I mean, what was the point of me going here if there was no cure?

Honestly, they treat me like an experiment.

"Miss Marshal, have you been drinking again?" She asked, her voice worn from age.

I grinned sheepishly. "Yeah, last night. I had a hangover this morning, but it's gone down."

She shook her head. "Did you throw up?" I nodded in reply.

"Was it blood?"

I had a tendency to throw up blood instead.

"No."

She nodded, writing it down on her clip board. I looked out the window and groaned. It was bad enough that it was cold and snowy outside, but it had to rain too?

What a depressing day.

"Have you been smoking?"

"No, I quit about three months ago."

But it won't be long until I start again….

She wrote more on her clip board before turning to me fully. "Well Miss Marshal, there seems to be no problems but we hope that you'll cut back on your 'explorations,' you may get another attack."

I smiled back at her before stretching, planning to leave. Her voice stopped me.

"Had any luck in remembering anything."

I sighed. "No, it's still blank."

"That's a shame, keep trying."


Heading towards the train, I sighed as dad began bawling. I'm nineteen, an adult, he shouldn't be acting like this.

"I'll be back on Wednesday." I reminded him, ignoring the looks some of the pedestrians shot us.

"Greed won't mind you not showing up!" He wailed.

Oh, if only that was true-but Greed is a spoiled brat.

After making sure that my luggage was on the train and that the Diamond in the steel case was with me, I pushed dad off of me and boarded the train.

"See you soon dad!" I yelled to him while he pouted. His eyes suddenly widened.

"Leonie! Your brother's are currently in Dublith!"

Shit!


Sorry that it's short but I hope you liked the chapter.
