"BRISBANE HOSPITAL"

Chilli, who was in a hospital bed. was not looking any better than last time. She lost more weight. And here color was starting to fade away. She was in a deep sleep, but a sudden thirst hit her hard. And when she woke up. She had a huge headache, on the right side of her head. First she saw that she was on a bed. Then she looked at her right hand. That happened to be handcuffed to the rail. She was confused on why she could be here in handcuffs.

"Morning sunshine" said Bandit in the corner of the room with a blank emotionless face.

"Or maybe I should be saying, Good night because it's 12 o clock".

"Bandit, what's going on? Why am I in the hospital, and why am I in handcuffs. " She questioned him.

That question surprised him. How could she not have known?

"Chili you yelled at bluey, told me to piss off, and held a knife to Bingo's throat. Don't you remember any of that."

"I did not do tha-

"But you did, I saw you. What do you remember?" He questioned her.

"All I remember was cutting carrots and then it's all kinda foggy from there.".She answered

"Might be because I hit you with the hockey stick". Bandit said, looking at the door. Trying to avoid eye contact from her.

"YOU DID WHAT" she yelled.

"Like I said, you tried to cut a Bingo's throat. You almost even told her how sh-".

creak*

"Hello there Mr and Mrs heeler. My name is Shaun." Said the doctor who was a German shepherd.

I have found out what has been going on with Mrs heeler. But it's devastating news.

Stipe's house

5 hours ago

Stripe was just lying down on the couch. looking for a way to get a rash off his bum, That he had for weeks now. So far nothing that he hasn't already tried came up on his phone.

"I swear to God, If I don't find a remedy for my rash. I'm gonna scratch my ass until it bleeds". He said as he started to scratch his bum.

ring*

Stripe got off of the couch and to see who was ringing at the door.

It was his brother Bandit, with Bluey and Bingo. Bingo had her hands on her neck.

"Oh hey bro how's it going……..are you ok bandit". Questioned Stripe

"Not really, I was hoping you could watch the girls. Until I can come back from the hospital, to see chili". Bandit said calmly

"Yeah of course but why is Chilli in the hosp-"

Bandit started walking away to the car. Not even making eye contact with his brother.

"Bandit…BANDIT you have to at least tell me-".

ssssssccccrrreeeessshhh* bandit drove away.

"*Sigh* I swear, he gets on my nerves sometimes". Said Stripe

"Um uncle Stripe, do you have any band-aids?" Questioned bingo as she held her neck.

"Uh yeah I have a few band-aids. Do you get a rash on your neck?" Uncle Strip kneeled down to get a better look at her.

"Um, something like that". Bingo Said as she revealed her neck to uncle Stripe. It wasn't a deep cut, But a clean cut around her neck. Which tore apart a few vines and caused her to bleed slowly.

"OH SHIT!" Said Stripe as he fell almost onto bluey.

"We have to get you some bandages and hydrogen." He stated, as he got up and grabbed bingo by her sides.

"TRIXIE GET THE MEDICAL KIT, BINGOS BLEEDING".

Trixie comes into the room, brushing her teeth.

"The kids are her-? OH SHIT, I'M GETTING THE MEDICAL KIT." Trixie yelled. As she dropped her toothbrush on the floor.

"Muffin, Socks stay in your room. Do not come out." Yelled Trixie

"But Bingo and Bluey are here" said muffin as she stopped halfway from the staircase.

" WHAT DID I SAY?" she yelled, giving muffin a serious look.

All she did was back away slowly to her room knowing this was not the time to argue with her.

Trixie got the medical kit from the kitchen. And ran to the living room where Stripe put bingo on the couch.

"Stripe hold her down. she will not like the hydrogen peroxide" Trixie said as she put the liquid on a small towel.

"Wait what's hydogen pixide, Uncle Stripe." She asked him. As he held her by her shoulders in front of trixie..

"Let's just say you're not gonna like it sweetie. Trixie said she pushed the towel on her wound.

AAAAAAHHHHHHH, IT BURNS, IT BURNS PLEASE STOP. Bingo yelled as she tried to wiggle her way out of stripe's grip.

"Stop hurting her aunt Trixie, Please stop it". Yelled bluey as she tried pulling her aunt's leg to get her away from bingo.

"This is necessary bluey, Go with your cousins and stay up stairs. Were not done here". She said

she got her leg out of blueys grasp. As bingo keeped on screaming from the pain of the peroxide. It was scaring bluey too much. So she ran upstairs where her cousins were, trying to figure out what was going on.

"Bluey what's happening to bingo" Asked muffin

Muffin was being hugged by her sister. She didn't know what was going on. And it scared her.

All bluey did was pass them and went to the front bathroom where she locked the door and ran to the corner. Where she curled up to a ball and started crying. Her cousins went to the door and knocked, still curious about what was going on.

"Bluey why did you lock yourself in the bathroom? What's going on, why is bingo screaming". Questioned muffin

"GO AWAY MUFFIN" she cried

As she folded her ears behind her back. Trying to block her voice.

"BLUUUEEEEYYYYYYYYY"

She was stressed out. Her mum just yelled at her. She doesn't know what's going on. And bingo is yelling downstairs, out of pain and agony. And her cousin wouldn't leave her alone

"I said PISS OFF YOU OVERWEIGHT NUTBAG."

She didn't know what piss even means. She just heard her mum say that as a way to show her anger. And now she's doing the same. Muffin stopped trying to talk to bluey. So then bluey lied on the floor. And she keeped on crying uncontrollably.

THE LIVING ROOM*

Bingo in the living room, Had medical tape on her neck. Tears were still running down her face. The peroxide felt like fire on her wound.

As soon as Trixie came into the living room. She scooted to the left corner of the couch away from her. She was terrified of her now, she never thought her own aunt would even try to harm her.

"No, no, no, It's ok bingo I don't have the peroxide anymore. I brought some ice cream for you." Trixie said

She showed the little ice-cream logo on the cup. Bingo was still hesitant towards Trixie. But she let her sit near her, after she gave her the ice cream. Bingo took a spoonful to the mouth, to try and cheer herself up.

"How does it taste, Bingo? I bet it's really good. It's chocolate chowder fudge." Trixie said

She was trying to lighten the mood. But bingo, just scooted away from her. This caused Trixie to feel bad. She was just trying to help her wound. Which also made her question how she even got it in the first place. She knew bingo wouldn't talk to her for a while. So she went to the muffins room, To ask bluey why they dropped off on such short notice.

"Hey bluey I was wondering why wer-"

Sniff*

Sniff*

Muffin was sitting on her beanbag crying by herself.

"Muffin why are you crying" asked trixie

"Bluey ran off into the bathroom and called me a bad word. All because I asked her what was going on." Muffin explained

Socks was trying her best, To cheer her up by hugging her older sister. Trixie then left to go to the bathroom. And knocked on the door to see if bluey was still there.

"I TOLD YOU, TO PISS OFF YOU FAT BEAN".

"What the…YOU DO NOT DISRESPECT ME. IN MY OWN HOUSE BLUEY. I'M COMING IN THAT BATHROOM". she yelled at the door.

She got the pin on top of the door. And unlocked it, she knew she was gaining weight. But it always bothers her, When someone reminds her of it.

"Bluey you better have a good ex-" she paused

Bluey was still crying on the floor. She quickly went to comfort her. She hugged her close, and bluey embraced that hug. It was the only thing that made her feel comfortable. In the horrible situation she was in. She started to control herself, all that crying left her tired. Her eyes were a little red, with all the salt from her tears. She never felt so stressed in her life. All because she asked a question.

"Bingos ok bluey, I'm sorry if I scared you. I had to put the liquid in her neck to stop the bleeding. Do you forgive me for scaring you?". Trixie asked, still holding her niece.

All Bluey did was nod.

"If we go to the living room. And I give you some ice-cream. Will you tell us what happened to the bingo's neck?" She asked

It took Bluey a minute to decide whether or not to tell them what had happened earlier in her house. But when her aunt said it was chocolate chowder fudge. She nodded slowly, letting her know she would tell them.

"OK then let's go," she said as she stood up.

Bluey slowly followed her to the living room where she saw bingo eating the ice-cream. Bingo saw her and quickly ran up to hug her.

"Are you ok bingo"? Bluey asked

Bingo was quiet for a few seconds. Bluey noticed the medical tape on her neck. And tried to touch it. Bingo grabbed bluey's hand and shook her head at her.

"OK girls, could you please tell me what happened. How did bingo cut her neck like that"? Trixie asked, as she sat on the couch in front of them

Bluey and bingo decided to sit on the carpet. They didn't know where to start. And it was quiet for a moment.

Trixie grabbed what was left of bingos ice cream on the couch and gave it to bluey. She slowly grabbed it and looked at it for a second. Then she broke the silence.

"….It all started at home. Mum was making chicken soup. And I asked her if the food was ready."

She took a scoop of ice cream and put it in her mouth.

"She said it was almost ready. And then she yelled out in pain. Then dad went to see if she was ok. But she yelled bad words at him. And then I went into the kitchen, And asked them if they were squabbling. She yelled at me, and said this was a bloody argument.

"Did chilli really say that?" Asked stripe

"Where have you've been?" Trixie questioned him

"I was trying to call bandit. But he never picked up". He responded

"What happened next bluey?" Trixie asked her

Stripe sat down on the couch, intrigued by blueys story. Bluey hesitated for a sec, but then she put ice cream in her mouth. To try and calm herself down.

"I ran away from the kitchen, To my room. And then I hid underneath my sheets. Dad came in and told me that mum has been acting strange. She doesn't eat, her fur color is starting to fade, And She drinks a lot of water now. He said he was gonna bring her to the hospital. But then he heard her yell at bingo. She told her she was a-

"Retard" finished bingo

Everyone stared at her. At first she was mute and now she started talking again. It was surprising to say the least.

"Momma called me a retard. She ran into the kitchen and grabbed a knife. She tOK. grabbed me by my arm and put me into the corner. she had the knife near my neck. And told me how…. I didn't look anything… li-"

She started to cry a little. the idea of her mum saying that just broke her heart.

"That I…didn't look anything like her. And that she should have had an abortion. But they didn't let her. And..*sniff* she never loved me".

Bingo started to cry again but Bluey stopped it by hugging her. Bluey then finished the story

"She then went into my room, With a cut on her neck. Later dad told us we were gonna stay with uncle Stripe and Trixie.

She took one last scoop of ice cream in her mouth.

"He said he was going to the hospital, Where mum was put in. I asked him why mum was at the hospital. And he said that he knocked her out with her own hockey stick. That she was gonna kill Bingo.

Stripe and Trixie were both awestruck for a few minutes. They couldn't believe it. Chilli went crazy. And tried to kill her own daughters.

What surprised Stripe, Was Bandit hitting her with a hockey stick. His brother would never, In a million years, hit Chilli. But considering that his own daughter was endangered. Made it more believable.

Trixie was in her own thoughts. And she may have found out what was wrong with Chilli but she hopes to be incorrect.

"Hey Bluey how about you two go up, with muffin and socks. And play with them while we get dinner ready for you". Trixie suggested.

"I don't think Muffin wants to play with me, After what I said to her. She said, still hugging Bingo". Bluey replied

"Oh she'll forgive you, don't worry about it". Trixie said.

"Ok, aunt Trixie," she said.

Bluey and bingo left the room. As soon as the sisters were gone. And the living room was quiet. Trixie put her hand on stripes leg.

"Is there something wrong honey?" he asked her.

I think I know what's wrong with Chilli, Stripe. She said looking down.

"Well what is it"?

Sigh* Stripe I think she has.

BACK AT THE HOSPITAL: 5 hours later"

"Mr Heller your wife has cancer."
