Chapter 31: The Hospital's Mysteries part 1

"Abbacchio," Giorno said, "start your rewind now, set it to five hours in the past." Abbacchio nodded his head, summoning his Moody Blues. It begun to rewind, the dials in its head moving counterclockwise. "Do you have the recording yet?" Giorno asked, turning to the rest of his group. "Yeah, here ya go boss," said Jace. He handed Giorno his phone, Giorno took it and began watching. Hunter enters the room, the officer guarding MGK's cell falls to the floor, a hole forming in his chest. "He killed the guard," Giorno muttered, the video continued. Hunter and MGK had begun a dialogue, a lot of cursing, suddenly, the video glitched, the screen fuzzing up. When the glitching ceased, MGK was already on the floor, his head crushed. Giorno went back in the video, but the glitching persisted, he frowned, "there is a glitch in the video, right before MGK's death," he muttered, "Jace, see if you can fix it."

He handed Jace the phone back and moved to Abbacchio. "Any luck?" Giorno asked, "it's almost done, there." Moody Blues dial stopped moving and started to morph. Moody Blues transformed into Hunter, "God's Plan never fails, no matter what he may face," it said, "I will not fail, I will follow God's Plan to the end!" The recording turned and exited the room, "lets follow it," said Giorno. The group followed Moody Blue's recording out of the room, the recording walked down the hall, but it suddenly stopped. "God's Plan is to ascend to the top, no matter what," the recording said, "I will succeed, you can't stop me Giorno." Giorno's eyes widened, the recording turned around, facing the group, "I had a feeling you would do this, I've studied all of your backgrounds, I know all about you," it said, "especially your girl Giorno, I heard that she was pregnant…" Giorno began to tremble, he knew they what they were planning, and if he knew Trish was pregnant… "Don't you think it would be nice, if Uncle Hunter would pay her a visit?"


Far off in town, Trish and Shelby were shopping in one of the many plazas. "Isn't it nice to get out and about Trish?" Shelby asked, "being stuck in that dull mansion must be such a drag." Trish rolled her eyes, "it's not that bad Shelby," she said, "and besides, I enjoy the relaxation." The two girls entered one of the shops, Shelby's eyes scanning the entire place. "Wow, would you look at that!" Trish watched as Shelby ran off into store, she couldn't help but chuckle, for someone so old, she still had the mentality of a child. "Excuse me miss, is there anything I could help you with?" Trish turned to see one of the store workers next to her. "Oh no, I'm fine," Trish replied, "I'm just looking around." The worker smiled and looked to where Shelby ran off, "I assume she is a friend of yours?" Trish nodded, "yeah, she's a bit too fast for me, but I don't mind." The worker looked at Trish's stomach and nodded, "Ah, I see, how long has it been?" "I, uh, don't know what you mean?" "Your stomach," the worker said, "you're pregnant yes?"

Trish was taken aback by this, "yes, I am, I'm surprised you could tell." "Trust me, I have four kids, I can tell when a woman is pregnant." Trish's eyes widened, "four kids, I couldn't imagine that, what is it like?" "It's hard, I'll tell you, juggling your life and theirs is not easy, but once you find a middle ground, it's not that bad." Trish giggled, "you seem to have a good handle on things." The worker smiled, "yes, you could say that, it does feel nice to have control over a situation, to be able to know that no matter what you do, you will always come out on top." Trish chuckled nervously; she didn't really understand what this guy was talking about. The worker turned to Trish, "I've always been in control, and say someone was to unbalance that, well, they would be taken care of…" Trish began to back away from the man, "What are you?"

Trish quickly looked to her left; a huge scream echoed throughout the store. A man laid on the floor, bleeding profusely on the ground. A small crowd formed around him, trying to help him. "The greatest thing about being in control Trish, is that fate will always be on your side." Trish could feel an immense pain, she looked down, only to see a blue arm through her stomach. The worker took his hat off, revealing that it was Hunter, "and as you see, I am always in control."


"Nice place." Across town, Bronny and company arrived at the hospital. They walked to the front door, but it wouldn't open. "It's locked," Bronny said, "I though hospital's were always open." "Maybe it's an Italian thing," Rae replied. Bronny rolled his eyes and looked towards the ground, picking up a rock. "Please don't tell me you're planning on breaking in," Joshua mumbled, "what, how do you expect us to get in?" Bronny replied. "Uh guys, I think found a way in," Noel said. On the side of the building was a huge hole caved in to one of the walls." "Shit," Jolyne muttered, "how do you think that got there?" Bronny shrugged his shoulders, "don't know, but whatever it is, It can't be good, let's go inside, but carefully." The group nodded and entered the hospital.
