The New Guest

« prev 13 in pool next »

When Coco woke up, the only thing she was aware of was screams.  She listened for a while, learning that these screams were of anger.  As she listened she heard small snit-bits of the conversation "...fuckers......her.....you....kill...again..."  Coco groaned and rolled over, looked to see Jazz standing by her bedside.  He looked down at her when she moved and smiled.  "Hey, you feeling okay?"  He asked, moving so he could sit on the bed next to her.  Coco nodded weakly.  "Don't worry, you'd be screwed if we had something Houser didn't know about."  Jazz said, smiling knowingly.  Coco looked at him puzzled, Jazz responded by pointed at her shoulder.  "Houser always thought I'd never find out my abilities, but, he never knew I did have some."  Coco fearfully looked down to see, the bite mark.
Gone.
"You're lucky.  When they snuck you in last night and Leon found you, the wound was still fresh.  If it had healed and scarred I wouldn't be able to do anything."  Cooc looked at teh door when she heeard something like glass breaking.  "As you can guess, Leon is in his...well...uh-" another crash-"Zone, I guess you could say, there's no pulling him off them till he's satisfied.
"Houser...?"
"Leon managed to get him before he could run off, heh, he talks big, but whenever there's a fight, he runs off like some pussy cat...no offence."
"No taken."  Coco said, her voice was hoarse.
"Here, drink some of this.  I found the tea in your back pack.  What kind is it?"  He asked, handing her the warm cup.
"I made it myself."  Coco said.  "Dried mango cubes, a little cinnamon, some apple and naturally grown green tea leaves."  Coco said, her throat felt much better when the warm liquid hit it's walls.
"Really?  Yourself?"  Jazz asked.  Okay, he hated kids with a passion, but...this was interesting.  A ten year old MADE her OWN TEA?
"Uh huh, Jazzmin made me a garden and I grew some stuff, then bought the other stuff, you can try some."  She said, offering him the cup.  Jazz took it smiling.  '[It's going to be disgusting' He thought.  He took a sip and stopped.  This was the best tea he had!  The mango and the apple gave it a smooth starter taste that just made him relax, and the tea leave gave it a robust after taste.
"Fuck, that's good!"  He smiled, taking another sip, this time larger.
"I could make more, if you'd like."  She said.
"I'd like that very much.  Y'know, for a kid you aren't that bad."  He said, patting her leg.  He stopped, he smiled and gave her leg a small squeeze, "but, you are freaking tiny."
"I know, I don't know why!"  Coco laughed.
Outside, the screaming stopped.  Slowly, they heard heavy footsteps coming and opening the door.  Leon stepped in.  Coco smiled weakly.  He had blood on his hands and some on his chest.  Coco noted it wasn't his.
"So?"  Jazz asked.
"Their out cold.  I think Houser is in a coma, Rachet probably won't be able to move around for a few weeks."  leon said, moving to Coco's bathroom and washing himself up.  He looked back and smiled at Coco.  "You okay, kiddo?"  He asked.  Okay, what is this?  Jazz is being nice to a kid, and Leon just said KIDDO!
"Fine...."  Coco mummbled.  Leon walked to her bedside and sat next to her on the other side of the bed, so she was between him and Jazz.
"We were so worried.  If it wasn't for the fact that both Houser and Rachet were gone, we'd never have found you!  Are you okay?  They didn't hurt you too bad did thay?"  Leon asked.
"I feel...sore..."  Coco answered.
"I know, kid, just lay down and relax.  Tommorrow Maxxi's taking us somewhere."
"Where?"
"I won't tell, but I will say these things: Rachet and Houser won't be their, we'll be able to relax and get our minds off things, and I think it'll be pretty funny." He said, giving her a strange look.
"Do NOT say it."
"Say what?"  Leon smiled.
"The beach! I hate water!"  Coco said.
"Yeah kid, the beach."
Coco sunk back into her bed and groaned.  Only three hours ago, she was in hell, now, she was in purgatory.

Well, things could be worse.

This wasn't my origianal idea, my origianal was MUCH better, but I have limited space, and I just reallly wanted to kinda move on, I will write the ENTIRE thing one day...if I can figure out how to write it in story form.
