(15 days until Quarantine. )
(Mood Tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj6ScGeBYQk)
While I sat with her for the time, she watched the nearby HV (Holographic Vision) for a bit before a nurse came to ask if I had wanted a blanket, and I had shook my head and asked for a coffee instead. From the Hospital window, you could have beautiful glance at the Skyline of Manhattan. Today was perhaps going to be an easy day for me.
The time was 11 and I decided I'd tune into local news from what I missed on my way over here. As I reached over for the remote, I glanced at Amelia sleeping and decided it'd be best not to wake her - so I tuned in through my phone, slipping an ear piece for relatively easy hearing.
According to the local broadcast, there has been a rise in strange criminal activity lurking around New York including several identifiable crime families- Elemental Mafia, Legion, and The Prions - all supposedly linked to one another in a bigger plot than anticipated. A few of their crimes seem to have a marking of a "6" which appears to be what groups them all together. The bus also had a marking of a six on the rear end, that would mean that the supposed Black Phantom would have an association to one of the said families.
Elemental Mafia I know has had its roots in New York for as far back as the late 1800s, going perhaps by several different names prior. They seem to resurfacing old values in a progressing time. Legion has a prominent influence in New York with its sacrificial crimes and occult operations, they maybe even older than EM. The Prions are a relatively recent crime family, but with their upbringing came a convenience in technological prowess.
As I changed positions around the room, practically pacing as I tried to put what I knew together, it had already become a new day. It was three in the morning and my coffee mug was empty, as I sat drawing a diagram of the possibility of having the Black Phantom related to Legion. He did seem very peculiar, but no cases of Legion lead to such an entity present - unless he was summoned- but as far as I know, there have been no incidents of the such active.
As time had passed, it became 5 in the morning and the shift was almost over, until Amelia's guardian came. With perhaps an exquisite breakfast and vibrant flowers, staring at me with a shocked expression across his face.
"By God's bones, what the bloody Hell do you think you're doing here?" He furrowed his brow and brought himself to take out a piece of parchment. "By Royal Decree, she is under the sovereign visi-"
"Ah, before you go on with your little noble regiment, I'll have you know I was the one who saved this girl's life. She entrusted me with her security so I here I am looking after her."
"Ah... uh.. I see..." He rubs his face and holds his chin, looking about the room for an explanation as he folds the certificate away. "I'll still be the one to treat and give her breakfast then!"
So be it then, Jeeves.
