((A little bit of a retro-retro post...))

While on the way to the farmhouse, dame had made three phone calls to L. First to the business phone, then two to the personal line. dame had to stop herself from throwing the cell out the window when the personal line when straight to voicemail the second time. "Dammit all to hell, L, PICK UP THE DAMN PHONE!!!" scream she screamed and tossed the phone onto the passenger seat. dame had sat in her car a moment before getting out, grabbing her bag, and heading towards the house.

((now I am caught up to where my last post was. However all of this happened yesterDAY...))

dame walks with a purpose and flings the screen door open, it slamming against the house with a satisfying BANG. She treats the house door the same way, swinging it shut hard behind her. She marches right past all the other people in the house, even if they try to talk to her or stop her and goes into the main security office. "Where's L," she demands from the man on duty.
"Well, little lady, you know that's classified information," he says, leaning back in his swivel chair and kicks his feet up on the table lined with monitors.
dame goes over and knocks his feet down, pushing him across the room hard, "Where. Is. L?" mad
He looks a little shocked, not expecting her to be quite so forceful, then he looks angry and finally his expression settles on arrogance again, he pulls out a cheap cigar and bites the end of it, "Can't tell ya," he pauses to light it, "Then I'd have to kill you." He takes a long drag on his cigar.
"Don't give me that cheap crap. Now tell me where she is!! scream mad "
He gives her a quick glance over, slowly blowing the smoke out of his lungs, "I suppose I could tell you...for a price."
dame just stares at him unamused, "Or you could tell me now and things won't have to get ugly."
"Where's the fun in that?" he takes another long drag, "It gets awful lonely up here..." He takes the cigar out of his mouth and taps it, ash falling to the floor.
dame snarls a lip up at him, eyes following the ash to the floor, "You know L would have your head for even suggesting something like that." She struts over to him, leaning over him, hands bracing her body on the arms of his chair and whispers in his ear, "We don't deal like that." She slams him back hard, "And you know it!" scream she yells.
Him and his chair go flying back and hit the table hard, monitors shaking, and it flips him out of his chair. The man lands hard on the ground, cigar burning his arm as he does. He yelps and quickly brushes off the ash and fire, blowing on his skin as he does. He pushes himself off the ground and glowers at her.
"Now where. is. L?"
"I'm not telling you jack, Stripes." The security guard turns his chair rightwards and sits down, going back to monitoring the cameras.

dame fumes in the middle of the room, fists clenching and unclenching. She takes a deep breath, "WHERE IS MY SISTER, YOU JACKASS!!" dame pauses a beat, tears welling up, "IT'S ABOUT MY MOM!!" and then busts out crying. crying

(( eek surprised confused ))

eek eek The man on duty has no idea what to do. Stripes is...standing there...crying? He becomes very uneasy, not dealing well with females crying or getting emotional to begin with and certainly not with a damned cold trained killer. "Uh...Stripes... gonk Stripes! What's wrong? Oh geez, don't cry!" The woman stands there blubbering, nothing comprehendible coming from her mouth. He starts panic, "Oh geez, oh geez, oh geez, I don't get paid enough for this s**t," he mutters under his breath. "Uh...uh...what's wrong with your mother, Stripes? gonk " When she starts crying louder, he curses obscenities under his breath. "Okay! Okay! You are going to raise an alarm...And I'm gonna get heckled for breaking down at the sight of a sobbing woman, now what do you want? What will make you stop crying?! gonk stressed sweatdrop "
Through her tears, she lets out a distraught and hiccuppy, "Wh...ere..." hiccup "is...my..." hiccup "s-s-s-sister?" hiccup.

crying crying crying crying She sobs all anew and with fervor.
sweatdrop gonk He covers his ears, "OKAY! Okay, I'll tell you! Just please, for the love of God, stop that blubberin'! She's in Switzerland! Okay! Switzerland! For the...that's all I know, okay? That's all any of us know." He tenses, peeking through one eye to see what she was gonna do next...
dame smiles inwardly, very well pleased her little ruse went over. She slowly calms down to a sniffle, nodding her head.
"...Do...do you need anything? A tissue? Some water? Do you need to wash up?"
She stares at him with hurt eyes, "Do...do I look a mess?! crying " And looks like shes about to cry again.
The man mentally facepalms, stressed "No! No! You look fine! Never better! Do you want some water? gonk "
"Could...." she says hesitantly, "Could I have a mocha frappe to go?"
"A mocha...what the hell, Stripes?" One look at her face and he takes it back, "Okay! I'll go get one of those...whatevers."
"Extra chocolate, please. 4laugh And transportation to L's private 'port and her jet...the Lear."
"...What?! scream No, friggin' way."
"Yes you will..."

Half an hour later, dame has her mocha frap in hand, and is instructing some of L's men to take care of her baby while she is gone. She smiles over at her car and then gives them a look that puts the fear of God into them. Or at least the fear of dame. She pats the car on its fender, then walks over the beat-up old pickup truck, sliding in along side the driver, another man getting in beside her. She places her bag between her feet and gets settled in for the drive to the airport. She is on her way.

{{ rofl rofl rofl @ the mocha frappe bit. OMG, that was freaking funny as hell when he was like, what the hell?! rofl }}

((Lol ~ I see someone getting literally fired on the spot in the very near future.))

(( xd I'm glad you guys like. ^_^ More coming up soon.))

While dame and crew are pulling out of the driveway in the beat-up truck, an older, more experienced looking man walks into the security office, "What the hell was that all about?"
"I dunno, man. Stripes came in demanding where L was then burst out in tears saying something about her mother and where was L. So to get her to shut up, I told her L was in Switzerland."
"... stressed Their mom has been dead for 15 years."
"... eek sweatdrop oh s**t."
"She played you like a dog."
"We are so dead when L finds out. gonk "
"Yup, thanks a lot, asswipe. Thank God I bought that island years ago..."





The veteran lets the phone ring once and hangs up. Then he calls again and it rings twice and he ends the call. Then this time he just lets it ring.
L answers on the third ring, "Speak."
"She's comin' boss. Stripes."
"That sneaky little b***h. I knew she would though. She just couldn't handle telling her little ******** chef that they couldn't be together. rolleyes How'd she get it out of ya'll?"
"Cried."
"...she... neutral ...cried?"
"Yup."
"...what the... stressed Well, thanks for telling me."
"No problem."
L skips a beat, "You're thinking of runnin', aren't you? I can tell by your voice."
He pauses, "...What makes you th-"
"Don't lie to me, Shorn. It'll only make things worse."
"...Yes...yes, I am.
L scoffs, "Then you better enjoy it while you can. Be thankful I have my hands full right now."
"...will do. It's been a great many years working with you, L."
"Yes, you were a loyal subject for 16 years. Make your amends now, Shorn. You never know when your time's comin'."
The phone goes dead before he can answer, "Ye...ma'am..."

A week later a package arrives on his private island addressed to Shorn...getting an attendant to open it, with him a safe distance away, inside he finds jet ski key and a note attached. "Enjoy your island while you can. -L"

dame is a little disappointed that the medics aren’t still on the plane. Not that it is really surprising or anything, but she’s still disappointed. She really wants to get her arm looked at and rebandaged. She hasn’t even taken a good shower since the mission. She looks despondently at her shoulder and then shrugs it off. She’s going to a medical facility. Someone will look at it there. Knowing this is going to be a long flight, she settles in and get comfortable. dame will spend the next several hours sleeping if it kills her. stressed She wants to sleep, not to think. A rogue thought about Karrie passes through her brain and her heart breaks anew. “This is why I want to sleep,” she grumbles and turns over, closing her eyes.


A FEW HOURS AND SOME CHANGE LATER


Once she arrives, she wanders around Switzerland for a while. stressed “What the hell was I thinking? Switzerland is a pretty damn big country for one girl on her damn feet.” stressed After an hour of walking around aimlessly, she facepalms, “DUH, dame. Where would L take them? Only to the best damn hospital in the country. stressed ” The girl curses herself under her breath, finds an internet café, and gets on one of the computers. After a little bit of searching, she finds three hits. Grinning to herself, she researches them a little more and narrows it down to two. She scribbles the addresses and names down and heads of in search of them.

On sight of the first one, she knows it isn’t the place. She walks in, just in case and looks at a map of the hospital posted on the wall. dame sucks on her cheek, reasons a moment then turns on her heel and walks out. The second hospital is much farther away. stressed Her cab fare is going to be out the wazoo.  

[damecharlie]

As soon as dame sets foot inside the second hospital, two people approach her, she recoils slightly and they, seemingly gently, escort her by the elbows and into the elevator, “L is expecting you.” stressed “Fine,” she spits. “We’ll take you to the private rooms.” She begrudgingly goes with them. Might as well, they are taking me where I wanna go. “L is busy. She’ll see you later.” “Figures,” she mutters as they point out which room is whose then disappear down the hall. One of them slips something in her shorts pocket before moving away. confused neutral Curious, she pulls it out. It's a Iphone. I guess to make up for the phone L smashed earlier. It annoys dame to no end that she is grateful for it. stressed Dammit, L. You knew I would be too. dame stands in the hall biting her lip for a moment. She didn’t know whose room to go into. Icy is still probably really pissed at her, with good reason. She didn’t know the other two men…so that left… stare Flame. She hisses vehemently. “The son of a b***h was pretty bad off. Maybe he’s sleeping…or better yet unconscious,” making a quick decision, she crosses the hall and quietly opens Flame’s door.

She's a little surprised at how spacious the rooms are. "Well, damn, rooms sure ain't this nice back in Georgia," she mutters quietly under her breath. She pads across the room, Flame being asleep...or seemingly asleep. rolleyes She walks over to his bed and places a hand tentatively on the rim of the footboard. confused He sure did look beat up. Spying a first-aid kit over near the nurses console, she puts down her bag gently on the floor and walks over. She opens it up and pulls out the small medical scissors. She cuts off the part of the bandage that is not on her actual graze and tosses it into the trash. dame then peels up a corner of the gauze that is on the wound, she feels it pull at her skin and curses. The fibers of the gaze had fused with her healing skin. "s**t." dame grits her teeth, sets her jaw and grabs an edge of the bandage. Taking a deep breath, she rips it off, hissing loudly through her teeth. The girl closes her eyes briefly until the stars of pain go away and then she drops the soiled cloth in the garbage and inspects her injury. It is a bit swollen, not having been cleaned in over 24 hours. She sighs and goes back over to her bag, making up her mind. She picks up the duffle and goes into the bathroom, shutting the door softly behind her.

A few minutes later, the shower can be heard. Also, a Beatles song faintly playing from her Ipod that she connected to her new phone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tw5XFSaSk2k

((And that brings us to the now...more or less. Go ahead and post, Exxy, dear. ^_^))

{{ rofl Oooooo, I certainly do hope dame is out of that shower by the time Flame wakes up(in other words, when I get off work) b/c she's just asking for trouble. twisted }}  

[damecharlie]

(( stressed Man I wish his leg was broken. stressed .... sweatdrop What time do you get off work?))  

[Icy Reign]

{{LMAO! I get off at eleven}}  

[katana68]

((LOL, 15 minutes and counting! rofl Perhaps Flame will need to go to the bathroom just as she's getting out of the shower? xd ))
