Hunting Aurora

Chapter 11

Chapter 11

Sitting on the airport in Amsterdam, frustrated out of my mind. It's been four hours since we were informed that the connecting flight has been delayed only to be told now that the flight will only depart at 6am and the airline already booked all the passengers into a hotel for the remainder of the evening.

I was already held up a day because there was only one flight
from Rome to Brazil and I just missed that flight yesterday... The flight Aurora was on. I couldn't help but think that Aurora had something to do with my flight's delay, she wanted time to get distance between us... She was probably in Brazil by now. But then again, how could she possibly delay a flight while on an airplane... I was starting to become paranoid.

Deciding to make the most of a bad situation I found my way to a nearby coffee shop to sample some of the local coffee. I needed it as I had a few too many drinks at the airport terminal waiting for my flight and trying to subdue the pain from my battle wounds...or the blow to my ego from Aurora standing me up like that after I bared my feelings to her.

So when the guy behind the counter said something about India or Sativa I figured he was referring to the different coffee brews they offer and thought nothing of it to say "Yeah yeah the first one", ignorant to what he was talking about. Then he went on about smoking and edible and by now I was already a bit waisted, tired, frustrated and then there was his accent that I just couldn't grasp in my state.

From normal café and restaurant etiquet I'm sure he was asking me if I wanted to sit in the smoking or non smoking sections and if I wanted anything to eat with my coffee so I said "Yeah give me something to eat that's fine, smoking section", I just wanted a coffee more then anything but found it rather curious that he didn't give me a menu after stating something about edible... Instead I just got a muffin with my coffee and figured that's what he meant.

Muffins and coffee does go together. Many coffee shops supply you with a biscuit or a slice of cake when you order a coffee...here it must be muffins.

It was the best damn muffin I ever had so I asked for another... and I'm not too sure but I may have had a third one, either way I only woke up close to midday the following day with a headache from hell and smelling so bad It was nauseating.

I had no recollection of what time I got to the hotel room or even how I got there, all I knew was I've never felt so sick in my life. Needless to say I missed my flight and I was upset with myself for it, I was angry for drinking too much in the first place, secondly I could kick myself for forgetting that in Amsterdam it is tolerable to use marijuana and that's what some of the coffee shops are famous for, thats the very reason Amsterdam is such a huge tourist attraction.

I got high on marijuana muffins untill I passed out and now the next available flight is only the following day...I dont even want to think about all the possible things I could have done while I was high, out of my mind.

I decided to stay in the hotel for the remainder of the day to ensure I don't get into anymore unplanned situations which could result in me missing my flight again. I was already ashamed of what happened and I didnt want to risk walking into anyone that may recognise me from the previous night. I was seriously starting to doubt my ability to make desent disitions after my recent spade of choices.

I only switched my phone back on at 21:15pm not taking notice that it didnt start up when I plugged it in after the battery died around six o' clock.

Now that it was back on after being off for over three hours, I starting receiving one message alert after the other.

The Hunters have their own message group in order for us to stay in direct contact with all the hunters at once. We only use the group in emergencies so when I see the messages on the group coming in, I knew it could only mean trouble.
