Assassin's Beginning

Assassin's beginning Recovery

So, we left off with Flame passing out, Kerry still in her cell, and a problem in the making.

------------

[Vicki/Superior POV]

She walked towards the hospital. Her selection of clothing was doing a very bad job of keeping the cold bite of winter at bay.

She enters the hospital and looks around, the silver crosses on her leather mask clank against each other.

Vicki walks down a hallway, ignoring reception. She starts looking at the door numbers. She finally finds the room she's looking for and enters, to see a doctor leaning over Flame, checking on the unconscious boy's wounds.

The doctor looks at Vicki for a second. "Seems like no one can keep you out." He says.

Vicki shrugs. "People can't keep me from family." She said, a hint of sadness in her eyes before she masked her expression once more.

The doctor nods and steps aside and Vicki sits down in the seat next to the unconscious assassin in training

"He'll have a few more scars if he wakes up, its been two weeks miss, the other doctors are losing hope in him." The doctor says shaking his head.

Vicki nods as the doctor leaves the room. She then looks at Flame and sighs. "Wake your dumbass up Flame, you've survived worse than this and came out grinning like an idiot, so I know you can make it out this time as well."

A few minutes pass in silence, then a soft chuckle can be heard.

She looks down at Flame to see him looking back at her. "Nice speech sis."he says as he tries to sit up.

"Lay your ass down kid." Vicki says, and to her surprise, he does.

"I hate hospitals." Flame says.

Vicki shakes her head. "Well, you'll be here for another few days, and I will know if you decide to try and go out the window."

"I'm getting way to predictable." Flame says and sighs. "How long this time?"

"two weeks." Vicki replies.

"That's the longest yet." He says and shakes his head.

"Yea, it has been the longest." Vicki says.

"How's ice cubes doing?" Flame asks referring to Kerry.

"She's been sleeping a lot lately and she's not doing well in her practices, you have a real friend in her Flame, even if she doesn't show it."

Flame chuckles. "If you say so, though I'd be willing to bet shed happily freeze me into a huge ice cube at any time she feels like its the right thing to do."

Vicki shrugs. "That's what you think, and don't remove the casts while I'm gone," Vicki says as she gets up and walks towards the door, "see you in two days...brother." She opens the door and leaves.

Flame chuckles and goes back to sleep.

Vicki leaves the hospital to find three guards waiting outside. "What's the message this time?" She asks, irritated as the Commander has been sending lots of tasks and requests to her in the last week.

The smallest of the guards says in a voice barely above a whisper. "The Commander wishes to see you in his office, he says its about your family."

"Tell him ill be there as soon as I can." Vicki says, suddenly interested.

They nods and go off to tell the Commander the message.

Vicki sighs and pulls on her hood and heads towards her house.
