A/N The hunt continues
Disclaimer: I own nothing
When they reached the X-ray department the were greeting by the technition . " Hey Vincent. Is this Yazoo ?' she said pointing at Yazoo with a smile . "Yes it is and I am assuming there was something left here for him" .
The technition went back into one of the rooms and soon emerged witha giant Blue balloon , with the usual note attached . They had been leaving the balloons behind as they were too big to bring . Yazoo looked at Vincent . " We should go back and collect all these balloons after this is done" he said with a smile on his face . " I would love to keep them .
Vincent winked at the technition and handed Yazoo the next note.
He loves puppets and
has many upon his shelf
Cait Sith is the one
he uses the most to help.
" Oh no " Yazoo said with a groan . "That means we have to go deal with Reeve and his weird puppets". Vincent chuckled at the teen and thanked the technition.
They headed back to the elevators to head to the main floor again. They left the elevator and headed in the same direction as the coffee shop." Reeve's office is the other way but I want to check on Nero" Vincent explained. After making sure Nero was feeling better , they went the opposite way and through a pair of brightly painted yellow doors. All along the corridor were whimsical paintings of unicorns , centaurs , dragons and several other mythical creatures. They came to a waiting area with bright red carpets and yellow walls . " Oh no! " Yazoo said in mock terror, covering his eyes as if he had blinded, " I forgot my sunglasses ...too bright" . Vincent laughed at the antics of the young teen. " Hey Becky, Is Reeve in, and is he free?" He asked the young sescretary at the desk.
" Yes to both questions Vincent!" she said with a smile. " In fact he is expecting you if this is Yazoo." Vincent thanked her and they headed down another brightly colored corridor , this one covered in fairies and pixies. " Man he sure likes bright colors "Yazoo commented looking at the walls." The bright colours are meant to cheer my patients up Yazoo" Reeve said walking up the corridor to meet them . In his hand he held the string of a neon green balloon . Yazoo took the customery note off it and read it :
lunch is so good
supper is too
here they have
nice fruit salad for you.
Yazoo passed the note to Vincent . " This is crazy . How many more are there?''
Vincent read the note . " Looks like we are heading back downstairs to the cafeteria Yazoo " He said turning the wheelchair around ." Good job you were my last client for the day"
" I know right " Yazoo said . He looked back over his shoulder " Bye puppet man , and thank-you" Reeve was very please to see a smile on Yazoo's face for the first time since the boy was brought into hospital a week ago.
As they boarded the elevator again Vincent looked down at Yazoo, " Are you having fun Kiddo?"
Yazoo looked back over his shoulder at Vincent . " Yes I am . Better than being stuck in bed all day . Or being tortured at physio...no offense" . Vincent laughed
" None taken".
They boarded the elevator and headed back downstairs to the cafeteria.
It was late afternoon when their treasure hunt began so the cafeteria was pretty deserted by the time they got there. Tied to the cash register was a huge bright red balloon, once again with Yazoo's name on it and a note tied to it. Yazoo read the clue out loud to Vincent:
No time for work
only time for play
come play with Marleen
she plays here all day.
" Looks like we are headed to the fifth floor . At least it 's the same floor my room is on . I'm getting tired " Yazoo said as they headed towards the elevators , yet again. " We can't quit now !" Vincent said as he pushed the button to the fifth floor ." Oh no , I'm not quitting . This is too much fun " Yazoo said sitting up a little straighter in his wheelchair.
They arrived at the fifth floor and headed towards the activity room . Densil and Marleen were sat at the table drawing pictures . " Hey Yazoo " Densil said looking up from his art work .
" Hi Yaz! There is a big purple balloon here with you name on it ! " Marleen said hopping off her chair and running over to the corner to retrieve the balloon. Yazoo took the note from the balloon and read it out loud again
Your journey has finally
come to an end .
Time to return to your room
now my friend
Yazoo looked at the note , a hint of disappointment on his face. "I guess the fun is over " he said with a sigh. " I guess we head back to my room" . Vincent winked at Marleen and took the balloon from her . " I will take this balloon with us now Yazoo. I'll go collect the rest after I get you settled. Yazoo proped his right arm up on the armrest of his wheelchair and rested his chin in his hand. " Ok I guess".
They arrived at Yazoo's room and Yazoo could do nothing but stare at the sight before him.
