The next day at the facility
"doc your meds aren't working, her stutter is a million times worse than it was when we sent her here" says Felicia
"damn side effects, the last medication we put her on was a replacement for one she was on when she arrived, it was supposed to help her, her bones are less dense than they should be, stuttering is supposed to be a rare side effect, like one in ten thousand rare, she doesn't have to take it if its causing her to stutter" says Klaus
"she doesn't need it, she has a natural stutter due to a genetic condition due to our parents relationship" says Felicia
"I was not aware of any genetic condition, your parents forbade any DNA genetic disorder testing" says Klaus
"ever secretive our parents, they're cousins, fourth or fifth, the Greek government allowed them to date as long as no kids resulted in the relationship, the day I was born we were all banned from Greece, though mom and dad have warrants for their arrest if they step foot back in the country, they were probably afraid that if you found out Mia was the result of what I'll call abnormal family love that you'd either experiment on her or send her to Greece to be punished as an abnormal family love baby" says Felicia
"did they know they were family when they had you" asks Klaus
"not exactly, our family in Greece do not talk to us and never talked to our grandmother either, our mom slept around back then, she craved the rush sex gave her, I wasn't necessarily going to be our dads kid genetically because of that, they only found out when they did the paternity DNA test that they were even related, I was already born so they just raised me knowing the genetic risks I may show, having me show very little and actually manageable symptoms they planned to have Mia down the road sometime, though it happened quicker than they expected, there's almost exactly a year between Mia and I, three months to the day, her and I were born on the tenth of the month we were born, her symptoms were almost immediately obvious, do you believe in spirits" says Felicia
"not specifically, my family believed in them though, I was raised hearing stories about people who communicate with the dead, why" says Klaus
"Mia can see those who have passed on, she was sent away because we didn't realize that was why she started throwing butter knives at us, she usually only talks to family though, she did mention that your recently passed sister had a message for you but she's unsure if you'd be receptive to any message from family, something about mistrust years in the making" says Felicia
"my sister and I were always close, she'd stayed here a few years ago after an attempted suicide after suffering abuse by her ex, an unfortunate fact about her life was that she was easily duped by guys, she dated ONE girl and she told me that she'd never felt happier in her life, three months later her and her girlfriend got drunk and got on a bus, I begged them to stay at the bar and that I'd pick them up, the bus driver got distracted by them kissing and crashed, killing all but her girlfriend, she absolutely HATES me because my sister was extremely nervous about going to bed with a girl, it's not something she'd ever done before, so I suggested they drink alcohol, the last words my sister ever said to me were 'ooh a bar, that's a good idea, I tend to be fearless when I'm drunk, I really love this girl, she might be the one', she sounded so damn happy, she giggled, she'd never giggled before, literally not once in her life had she ever giggled before, a few hours later she was dead" says Klaus as tears fall down his face
"if it's any consolation at least she died happy" says Felicia
"ugh what's taking her so long, she doesn't have that much stuff" asks Klaus changing the subject
"she gets easily distracted, may I go get her" says Felicia
"absolutely, her room is the room first off the cafeteria" says Klaus
3 minutes later outside Mia's old room as Felicia slowly approaches
"I'm sorry sir, please don't hurt me" pleads Mia
"you're not leaving, I'm in need of your services" says a doctor choking Mia as Felicia runs over
"get off of her right now, she was cleared to leave last night, I will sue you out of existence, if you want to live get off her right now" says Felicia pointing a gun at the doctor
"if you shoot me she dies" says the doctor
"I'm a good shot" says Felicia shooting him in the ankle as he falls off of Mia as she gets up
"what'd he want" asks Felicia as Mia picks up her bags
"he's a friend of the guy I helped put away for life last night, he wasn't too happy, said I needed to pay for my sins, I brought up his sister, which is why he was choking me, we should get out of here" says Mia
"we should let Klaus know" says Felicia
"he likely already knows, his sister feeds him ideas, he often knows what has happened before anyone else does because of her, this is a restricted section of the facility, you wouldn't have made it this far if he hadn't told the guards to stand down" says Mia
"you got everything" asks Felicia as they walk back to the front desk
"everything I'm allowed to take, I thought my night blanket would still be there, I was told it was bought with money mom and dad gave but I guess it's possible I misunderstood" says Mia
"I'll ask Klaus about it, he seemed open to hearing about his sister and what she asked you to tell him" says Felicia as an alarm goes off and medical staff head in the direction they just came, one of them stopping to hug Mia then heads off again
"I'm not sure he'll like what I have to tell him" says Mia
"please tell him anyway he deserves to know, who was that doctor who hugged you" asks Felicia
"his sisters surviving girlfriend, like I said he's not going to like it, it involves her" says Mia as they're now within earshot of Klaus
"I see you shot the spy" says Klaus
"spy" asks Felicia
"his job was to keep Mia here as punishment, I'd only just found out about him, he's been here for three years, did you kill him" says Klaus
"I don't believe in killing people, not if I can help it, he was only choking her, if he'd torn her top or skirt, that would change things, I obliterated his left ankle, he won't be walking anytime soon" says Felicia
"damn I wished you'd killed him, that gun, it looks to me to be a spy gun, we never heard the shot" says Klaus
"I'm a Private Investigator on the side, I've gotten in a hairy situation or two, usually when someone threatens to hurt me for investigating, I've had to carry a gun ever since, my leads on Mia had been dry for almost three and a half years, I knew she was somewhere in western Europe, probably France or Germany but that was too much ground to cover, there was also the chance she was in Spain or western Italy, the only reason I'm over here is because I had to 'deliver' a guy to the tour stop in Venice, Jadelyn Monica West had a lead for me, which brought me here, anyway Mia want sto know what happened to her night blanket that you guys got for her nightmares, she said she was expecting it to be in the room still, is it not cleared to leave with her" says Felicia
"there were suspicious discoloration spots that normally are associated with what I'll call tributes of the sexual kind, usually involving a picture, the local police wanted to see if it was such a tribute stain, if it is then its evidence and can't be returned to Mia, we can replace it with a brand new one if it turns out to be such, free of charge of course, Mia I understand you have a message for me" says Klaus
"you sure you can handle it" asks Mia
"yes" says Klaus
"she doesn't blame you and neither does Olivia, having said that Olivia needs stability in her life, she is unable to function without your sister, your sister wants you to… well to put it one way, date Olivia" says Mia
"I don't understand, I thought Olivia was gay" says Klaus
"so did Olivia, turns out she's bisexual, the problem she's been having is talking about your sister, people treat her like she doesn't have the right to be traumatized by the way everyone on that bus was effectively murdered by that bus driver" says Mia
"wait…. The bus driver killed those people on purpose… their decision to get on that bus didn't kill them" asks Klaus
"killing people was an accident, I've since spoken to him, he admitted he was in the wrong but that he believed while he was alive that lesbians didn't exist, that they were performing satanic rituals, he planned to rape them till they 'turned' straight, he just wishes your sister didn't have to die, he sees how caring Olivia is, those in power in the other realm believe he is irredeemable however because of the nature of her death, your sister is barred from living in heaven, she is stuck talking to people like me hoping I can sway those who have power in that realm" says Mia
"why isn't she allowed in heaven, that doesn't make sense, aside from her drinking issues she was a perfect model German and an ever better Christian" asks Klaus upset
"her work here isn't done Klaus, her purpose wasn't to die the way she did, she was supposed to make our lives better, she was going to die of really really old age" says Mia
"is there anything I can do" asks Klaus as Mia slowly backs away
"y-y-you h-h-have t-t-t-to g-g-get….. forget it, you're not going to like it, Fleici let's go" says Mia backing out towards the door, nearly dropping her bags in the process
"she seemed very freaked out" says Klaus
"it's the subject matter, she's uncomfortable saying the word sex or pregnant, something about past life trauma, she's also uncomfortable knowing that you would know that you'd be raising your sister reincarnated, she doesn't want it to seem like you don't have a choice" says Felicia
"do I actually have a choice" asks Klaus
"that depends on your faith, do you trust god enough to believe Mia can speak to people from heaven and that she is a servant of his will and that you can bring your sister back by having a relationship with your sisters 'till the end' girlfriend" asks Felicia
"what does Olivia believe" asks Klaus
"from what I can tell she believes Mia is what she says she is and believes her word, you must do what is right, for Olivia's sake, Mia says there's an employee that physically abuses Olivia because you the doctor and nurse boss isn't doing anything to protect her, I can tell you care about Olivia, BE the person she needs in this world, if you talk to her you'll find she has a secret she's been hiding from you, now if you don't mind I have to get Mia to the hotel before she gets herself killed" says Felicia as she runs after Mia
"ugh I knew we forgot something in her education, better go talk to Olivia" mutters Klaus
