Violet POV
We teleported to a really old cinema, Hibernia Cinema. What we are doing here is beyond me. When we walked in and Val told me to sit in one of the -remarkably musty- cinema chairs and not to move, so I sat at the very back, right hand side. Fletcher teleported next to me.
"Hey, how come you're here and not in the screen?" I questioned him as I sat cross legged on the back wall trying to stop my nose bleed.
"Restraint order, threats, symbols, Clarabelle, you choose. I'd say only about 3 more minutes until we can go in."
"Ok cool and I'm going to be mature and not ask...You wanna race down and see who wins? No teleporting, pushing or being a prick, ok?"
"Sure, but no element things, adept things or symbol things, right?
"Three-" we stood standing on the back of the last chair, me on the right, Fletch on the left
"Two-" We leaned forward putting our foot on the next chair down.
"One!" We launched down the 30 rows of seats, screaming out random words.
"Internet", "dog", "movie", "Diamond" "Megan Fox", "Neanderthal", "Shut Up"
I jumped off the last one and did a triple, side twist flip...and landed on my butt.
"Owww!!! My arse hurts...Hah I won! In you're face!!"
"I asked you not to bring me brain dead morons, what do you do? You bring me Fletcher Renn.
I ask you not to bring me any more fugitives, what do you do? You bring me Renn's little sister." he turned to me and said
"And This Is..."
"What ever I did, I didn't do it... And I'm not "Renn's sister" I'm "Violet Nymph"...HEY!!! Did you just call me a brain dead moron?!?" I was sitting cross legged, upside down floating in the air, trying to stop the nose bleed.
"Oh faceless gods..." Grose said shaking his head "Come on inside and I'll fix you up. God, look at you what happened? And how come you're not injured Valkyrie?" He asked inspecting me and then Val.
"Because her and pretty boy here where fighting about the plural of papaya. And, thanks that'll be great, what are you a doctor?" I answer, as a 20 something girl huffed walking by in a white medical coat.
"Oh I see, that makes perfect logical sense. Yes I'm a professional mage medical researcher and full time fight fixer upper. Come right through here now. Don't mind Clarabelle, she's in a mood because I told her not to eat off the morgue table because I'm prepping it for diecting a O'Culan, and there is a film of very rare, very old, very delect, very water dissoluble coating on it so the table doesn't contaminate the body." He lead the way through the screen to a -obvious- medical center. It was very bright and clean, but it didn't smell like a hospital. There was a main corridor and about 10 heavy duty doors leading off it. He lead us into the 4th on the right side.
"Sit on the bed while I go and get something, and Valkyrie out here, NOW!!" he pointed to a bed in the far corner, then pointed out the door.I sat on the bed, and marveled at all the glass viles on the walls, I was sure one of them winked at me, but the Fletcher slinked out from behind them, knocking 5 down on the way.
" Ahh shit! Crap, crap, crap" He quickly stooped to catch the 4 falling to the floor, He looked around for the 5th, seeing it on the edge of the other side of the shelfs, he darted to get it, caught it in slow motion, and punched the air. He then high-fived me and dropped the ones that was in that hand. I broke the silence with my side splitting laughter, I was in convulsions, choking on the blood from my nose but was worth it. I heard heavy footsteps coming down the hall, and angry muttering. Fletch scrambled to hide, and, finding nowhere to hide, forgetting his skills, just covered his eyes and scrunched up his face. I was still laughing.
"For fuck sake Renn, we leave you for 3 minutes and you break something! Thats it, Out! Go sit on the path outside, and wait like a dog." Grouse flipped his lid.
I regained my posture and walked up to Grouse and used my trick that China taught me, it was nowhere near as good as hers, for instance mine only really worked on teenage guys and idiots. I smiled, tilted my head slightly and said in my sweetest voice,
"Can my big brother please say here, because I only saw him today for the first time in 3 years and I might need someone to hold my hand if I have to get anything that hurts, Please?" and jutted out my lip.
"Oh...well I don't see why not. Now sit back up there on the bed, and take off your jacket. Now what wounds do you have?" He said gingerly poking my arm and side.
"Ehh, my nose, my jaw has a split at the joint, long marks on my shins, a few stomach bruises and...ow...yup a broken rib or two."
"Ok, eat this leaf, don't look at me like that, it stops the nose bleed. Now lie down." He handed me a folded leaf that I chewed on, while he put a pink, sweet smelling cloth over my jaw cut and another over my nose. He then moved my snoopy t-shirt and gingerly pushed down at different parts of my stomach, he stopped at a part just under my belly button and pressed down again in the same spot, looking confused.
"Is the baby ok?" I asked in mock worry. Fletcher, who had sulked off about 10 minutes ago, because I told him the speech was just because there was a rough looking crowd outside that'll probably kill him for looking at them wrong, appeared right beside me from else where in the center.
"WHAT?!?!" he screamed. Me and Cain burst out laughing, I sat up and ruffled his hair, he toled me to eff-off moodily.
"Fine I won't mess the fro... Whats up doc?"
"You seem to have a small, hard bump on the inside of you're stomach..." he raised his owlish eyebrow.
"God, no. That where he" I jerked my thumb at my brother "Drop kicked me down the stairs when I was 7, because I glued all his Cd's into the cases." Val laughed and high fived me.
"You never got it checked out? I'm going to have to go get a few things, I'll be back in a few moments, you can take that stuff off now. After I look at your stomach, reset your ribs, stitch your jaw up, check your legs, then, you will need to take a healing bath for all your bruises. Ok?"
"Yup, thats grand."
Grose left and I sat up, and flicked through my phone, looking for a contact. I found it and rang. They picked up after 2 rings.
"Hellu? Hows you?"
"Tanz, hey I need you to put some stuff in a bag, ok?
"Wait one sec, the pizzas here"
"No, Tanzey Arrows, you get your arse back here now, ignore the food."
"Mmm...Food...., ok I'm back. What you need?"
"Ok, member when we went to the beach last week? Yea, I need that Swimsuit thingy, my bulldog clip, my black boxer shorts, Grey tank top, Ramones hoddie, some marshmallows, some of that pizza and my Ipod, Stick it all in my messenger bag and Spiky will teleport to the apartment. Ok?"
"Yurp, that'll be ready in about 5 minutes, k? Bye"
"Bye" I hung up my phone.
"Ok, I need you to go to my house and get my bag ok?"
"Yea, ok...I'll be right back." he dissapeered.
*******
40 minutes later I was silently rocking out to Paramore in a very large bath that was sunk into the ground, eating marshmallow pizza and reading a book called "Hush, Hush" by Becca Fitzpatrick.
"I'm afraid you might have to stay overnight for observation, that reminds me, I need to check your insision area" Grouse said after putting more yellow fizz stones in the bath.
"Ok, thats grand, and here" I sat on the edge of the tub and stretched my shoulders back "Ya'Know I expected some sickly green paste that water proofs the cut...but no, now I'm wearing a cling film and tape corset" He left, muttering and shaking his head. I called Max and told him I'd have to get to his car tomorrow, as I was busy. I called Finbar and told him, well everything and that I wouldn't be in work later on today. I called Val and told her to get Ghastly and my skulls and to come down to the Cinema later.
*******************
I was padding around the clinic barefoot in my black boxer shorts (they were really pj shorts that were plain black but my friend told me they were someone or others boxers) and my hoddie. I found a kitchen and made myself a cup of tea, while the kettle boiled I sat up on the counter. I had a slight limp, but my shins only had feint marks up and down them. My scar on my stomach looked like it has been there for years and my face looked the same. I heard someone come through the screen. I walked back out into the main hallway. I waved at Val and Ghastly, Val had a large suitcase.
"Yodell Doodle"
"Jesus Woman, where the hell did you get all the skull's? Oh and I rang Marr and told her you'd see to Sanguine tomorrow."
"Hello to you to, and yes, I'm feeling much better. You really don't want to know about the skulls."
" Erm...Ok...Here..." Ghastly handed me a brown paper package.
"Ohh what is it?? Is it a puppy...no...I know it's a new addition to my vocabulary."
"Just go open it in the bathroom so we can start."
"Okay Dokay" I padded along to the bathroom, opened the door, turned around, moved...You get the gist. I put the package on the sink and opened the paper,
"Cool" I donned on my new clothes, they where exactly right. The dark, almost black grey jeans fitted like I have slept in them. The knee high dark brown leather boots with a side toung, that lased up to the very top where they wrapped around and tied at the back, they had a 3 inch, thick heel, allowed me to move like a ballerina. The top was a black shirt, and over that there went a deep purple corset,that clasped at the side, the shirt front poked out at the bottom, the cuffs were turned up and were the same as the corset as was the collar. There was a black leather belt to go around my upper waist (for my sword because I developed a habit of putting my gun in the back waistband of my jeans, so I wouldn't need a belt for that) A Slouch/beaney hat in the same purple as my corset. To finish it off there was a long, the darkest of black jacket that was short at the front but became longer at the back and then became short at the front again, it was a mac style with the long fold down collar and the six sailor style buttons, but instead of a belt that tied, the left side that buttons onto the right, became skinny at the side, and wrapped around the back and buttoned on the left middle button.
I walked over to the other side of the huge bathroom and garbbed my bag. I tousled out my hair with my brush, and re-did my make-up (eye liner) and checked my messages on my phone, I had 1, it was from the house phone, which was a crappy little Motorola razor, it read,
"Urgent newz, u need 2 call a sap, den u need 2 call us...LOLZ!! JK, but rely call us we need 2 talk! Sox and Tanz."
I called them right away, It turns out that our landlord-ly has to sell up because he was with a bank that went bust and all his money is gone,so we need to clear out. They are moving back home but I have to find somewhere to stay. I wrecked my brain trying to find someone who has a sofa to crash on, I could ask China but she'd hold it over me forever, Finbars wife is preggers, so that's a no-no, ugh!!!
"Wadda fink?" I said twirling for them.
"I think you look very smart, elegant and refined" Ghastly said approvingly.
"Of course you do, you made them. Here the room I'm in is over here. You can just throw the suitcase on the floor." I walked down the hallway, and into the door on the left, took off my jacket and flopped on the bed. I reached over onto the locker and took my sword and gun, and started to clean them.
"What about this one?"
"No, the sockets are too small"
"This one?"
"Nose too big"
"This one?"
"Er...Yea it looks like it"
"Thats a female, so no it's not" I interjected sitting on the floor crossed legged beside Val.
"Then no, its the wrong chromosome"
"What about this one?"
"Nope, just no"
This went on for another 20 minutes
"Ok this is the last one, yes this is the right one but... Violet, what did you do?!?"
Me and Val broke down in laughter.
