A Hectic House

A Sick Magician

Marvin rolled over and groaned, his head thumped and his body ached. He tried to sit up but when the room began to spin he flopped onto his back and plucked his phone off the bedside table and pulled his cat mask on, just to feel more comfortable.

MarvLeMagnificent: Hey Doc, I think I have the flu or something. Can you come check?

ZeGoodDoctah: I will be through in a moment

Marvin dropped his phone beside him and groaned, pushing himself against the headboard and attempting to remove the blurred edges in his sight.

"Alright Marvin, vat are your symptoms?" Dr Schneepelstein sighed as he pushed the door open.

As the magician opened his mouth instead of words a fountain of vomit splashed over the edge of his bed and created a puddle on the floor.

"Scheisse!" the German cried as he jumped back and into the hall. "Okay Marvin, take off your mask and follow me to ze bathroom."

Marvin whined but took off his mask, stepped of the puddle of puke and followed behind Schneep, stumbling from side to side before dropping to his knees in front of the toilet.

"Sit here for ze moment and I'll be right back," Schneep told him and left the bathroom.

He whined again and slumped against the sink cabinet, flecks of sweat stuck his hair to his forehead and created damp patches around his shirt collar.

He heaved into the toilet when someone appeared in the door and the person crouched down, rubbing his back.

"Hey Marv, you alright?" Chase asked.

"I'm fabulous," he coughed and tore a square of toilet paper, wiping at his lips. "Did Schneep send you?"

"Zat is Dr Schneepelstein to you!" The doctor snapped as he too entered the bathroom. "And no I did not send him, but you could vork."

"Work for what, bro?" Chase frowned slightly.

"As you can see Marvin is under ze veazer and you could probably take a day off of shooting nerf guns to vatch him," Schneep said, not like a question but just a statement.

"Sure," he shrugged and flushed the toilet, he looped Marvin's arm around his neck and helped him shuffle to his room, visibly cringing at the puddle of vomit.

Once the magician was tucked back into bed Chase cleaned up the sick and went downstairs to get a bowl, a glass of water and his phone as everyone began filtering out to work.

"I have phoned into Marvin's vork to let zem know he vill not be in today," Schneep walked in behind him and started the coffee maker. "So all you have to do is vatch him and make sure he gets plenty of vater and sleep."

"Got it dude," Chase grinned as he brought the things up to the magician's room and sat at the end of the bed, going onto Instagram and flicking through recent posts.

"Chase," Marvin groaned a few hours later making said trick shooter jump.

"Yeah bro."

"I feel like shit."

"Do you need the bowl dude?"

"I don't think so, where is everyone?"

"Most of the bros went out to work but like Googs and Bing and King and stuff are still-" before Chase could finish there was the sound of something smashing in the hall and both boys perked up, glancing at the open door. "Maybe King knocked over a vase?"

There was a bang and a metallic screeching sound which they both recognised to belong to Google. "I'll be right back bro," Chase said before jumping up and jogging down the stairs. "Googs, you okay bro?"

Google Blue closed his mouth and his eyes flickered for a moment. "Yes, I seemed to have malfunctioned for a moment but I am alright now."

There was a loud sound of smashing glass and both the Android and Chase raced up to Marvin's room after hearing him scream. Chase slid into the doorway and gasped upon seeing the window pane was gone, shards of glass sticking up dangerously from the frame and the bed was empty.

"Shit."

I hope you like the first chapter! I write a lot and will probably continue writing this even though most likely no one will read this!
