I left Darwin and made my way up to Keller. I didn't exactly have many friends on Keller, they were either equantances or enemies. Myself and Ric despised one another. I thought Chantelle to be the most annoying and ridiculously happy person I'd ever met. Malick was probably the one who I got on with the best, with our occasional banter and similar ambitious attitude.

And Serena, now she was someone who I did not trust. When I went to Sweden she proved that she was less human than I was myself and her dreadful treatment of Hanssen gave me good reason to betray Serena and side with the swede. But when the two of us had first met, Serena's words had been 'Us girls must stick together!" And recently Serena had shown how much she really meant that. She had stopped Imelda from suspending me and before I had gone to Sweden, the deal was that I could have anything I wanted, including the role as deputy Director of Surgery. So obviously I had a very mixed opinion of whom I was about to go and see.

I knocked on Serena and Ric's office door and waited to be let in. When I finally heard Serena call for me to come in, I did so, my head held high.

"Mrs Maconie, do take a seat. I wasn't expecting to see you today." She stated curiously. "So, what do I owe this pleasure?"

"I'm gonna skip the introductions and get straight to it. I'm not going to be here for much longer, so before I go, I need to be sure that I have someone who will keep the men in line. So, I guess you need to know a few things. Ric, he's all about apologies, believe me, I once ate about 3000mg worth of Homeopathic medicine to prove a point and all I did was say sorry and he forgot about it. And Michael, well he's all about the patients, not the money so try to be seen to be doing the right thing by them." I advised, thinking back to my days on Keller.
"So you're saying that all I have to do is at least be seen to play by the rules." She replied.
"Michael's cocky on the outside, but inside he's very different, he will stick up for you when you're right and will never kick a man when he's down. Don't take advantage of him though, he may be forgiving but he's not a fool." I warned, knowing that Serena's mind worked similar to my own.
"Fine." She said, like a teenager with too much attitude.
"And Elliott, he is one of the nicest, most generous most brilliant surgeons I've ever known so if you mess him about I swear to god you will suffer! I may not be able to do it myself but I'm about to make a call to an old friend of mine, Connie Beauchamp, I'm are you'll have heard of her." I whispered slyly, grinning internally as Serena gulped. "Well, if you haven't then I'll just say one thing. She's twice as evil as me and if she wanted to she would ruin your reputation so much that you'd be lucky to be working in an STD clinic in Norway. Anyway, remember what I said. Keep 'em in line would you." I said, turning to leave.

"Jac, before you go, can I ask why you're leaving?" Said Serena nervously.

"I'm not leaving, I'm dying."

And with that, I left.
