12: Day 23

Are you still frustrated, Integra?

Yes.

Is there anything I can do to help you?

Not unless you can get rid of my Ebola.

(Sigh) I wish I could, sis.

(Silence)

Why hasn’t Alucard come to see me?

Huh! You’ve been bleeding internally, why do you think?

Bastard.

Who? Me or him?

Both.

(Silence)

I hate to see you like this, Integra.

Then don’t see me.

(Silence)

I’m sorry, Landon, I don’t mean it.

I know. You’re getting stir-crazy.

I want to go home.

Soon enough.

That’s what they keep telling me.

(Silence)

Your bed’s all ready for you when you come home. Walter and I washed the sheets and put them back on. And I told Alucard not to bother you when you get back.

And Seras?

She has a little something for you.

What is it?

Ah-ah-ah. You’ll have to find out when you get home.

(Silence)

Bastard.

Two weeks after her last mission, Integra comes down with an illness...and it's not the flu...
-------

This is my favorite chapter of this whole thing, just because of the interaction between Landon and Integra. You can really get a good idea of just how frustrated and irritated Integra is, even more so than the last chapter. I think I particularly like this one because the sentences were short and sweet.
