miranda's 'family'

Part 26: Dr. Salvator Moreau

I shifted in my sleep and awoke in a bed, the morning light filled the room.

Sitting up with my back against the wall to the bed. I sighed and got up, silence. Only the sound of birds and water settles around me. I forgot I was staying at moreau reservoir till I heard the muffled sounds of someone cussing

"shhhh --- not --- yet! Bloody hell"

Moreau cussing never would have saw the day, I've always seen him as a reclusive non confrontational person.

I let out a small gigle as I got up out of bed. Great I slept in the wet clothes urg.

I went into the bathroom and had a nice long bath to clean myself off.

Half hour later I greated moreau as he hobbled around the mini village shoowing massive birds away from the houses.

"y-your awake? I'm so sorry if I woke you"

"it's fine, you didn't wake me anyways I have been up for awhile! What are those things?"

Moreau stood in shock and just looked at me.

"um erm..."

"if you can't answer its fine"

He nodded and shooed them away.

Moreau took me back to the pool and we started the lessons again.

He turned his back on me and I took the opportunity to jump in the water to hide.

"-so that's pretty much all of that... Tadpole? Tadpole! Oh no no no mother is gunna kill me. Karl's going to quote 'skin me alive and turn me in so sushi then feed it to a lycan'"

Moreau wandered to the jetti so it's called and I sprung out the water.

" raarrr!"

" Aaaaaahhh"

He fell in the water like a cannon ball with a large splash. I laughed so hard, moreau joined in.

He gave me a joking death glare.

"ha how does it feel to be scared in! Not every good huh"

"well we were on our way to practice swimming sooo"

"you are very annoyed"

"uhuh I am very angry and annoyed"

He smirked as he began to swim away from me.

Hours passed and we were swimming till early evening with one break for fried chicken, of course I ordered it from the duke but still its food!

We left the pool a stinging sensation ran up my arm as made our way back to the mini village.

"oh no...."

Moreau had a panicked look on his face.

"what, what is it?"

"heisenburg he's coming around for a bit!"

His face dropped and began to panic.

"why are you panicking moreau?"

"he-he did that if there is even a scratch on you then there will b-be hell to pay"

"but I'm not injured"

I checked myself then I saw it, a cut on my arm from getting out of the pool... Thought I felt somethkg funny earlier.

It wasn't a large one but it was fairly deep as the crimson substance trickled down my arm.

Moreau began to have a melt down.

"hey why don't you go to the duke and get some medical supplies yeah ill do a temporary fix."

No nodded and hobbled away quickly as I went to get my med kit from my backpack.

I lightly ran back to the house to findy backpack. I took a sip from the water bottle and then dug out my first aid kit. I saw the bandage and a piece of cloth. I placed the cloth on the wound then applied the bandage making it tight so it would slow the bleeding to a stop.

There was a knock at my door and I peered through the window. It was moreau he had bottles and bags of stuff.

I opened the door and moreau walked  in placing the medical equipment on the table.

"please s-sit down"

I did as I was asked and sat at the table center of the living room.

Moreau opened a bottle then began to unbandage my arm. Once unbandage he was about to pour the bottle on my wound. I pulled back as the liquid made contacy with my skin.

"what is that stuff!"

"this is a mixture of chemfluid and a herb I grow in my lab."

I still kept my arm away.

"it's an antiseptic..."

"like that stuff mum put on the graze on my knee when I fell down?"

"yes it cleans it so it will sting"

I nodded and handed my arm over to him.

He poured the whole bottle on my arm. It stung like hell.

"hello fish face you here!"

Moreau began to panic, again. He dropped the antiseptic onto my arm causing me to let out a small screech of pain.

"(y/n)! Moreau...."

We heard quickening footsteps to the door. It creaked open...

"what the FUCK!"
