Chapter 7 The Detective

The second hibernation chamber:

Au! Au! Au! .....my head hurts...Does this dumb thing ever work? They said reviving would be painless.

My mouth is dry and something sweet is in it. I munch lazily on the object as if the dry mass would be a pacifier. Then the thing, whatever it is, falls to the floor. I gulp a bite.

A moan escapes my lips. I don't want to wake up. I turn around to sleep for another round. It doesn't work. I open my eyes slowly. My sight is blurred.

I begin stretching. Half asleep and not really there I get out of my bed, stepping over some rubble to reach the sink. There I put some tooth paste on my tooth brush. While cleaning my mouth I look into the mirror.

Where could I get some cold coffee from. Hm....

A beautiful red haired girl looks back.

I focus on the background.....

(I, ginger fairy)

"What the hell happened here?!"

I turn around. The whole place is full of chunk. No stone is on the other. My sight focuses on the console, which lies broken on the floor.

This means I'll be the last fairy who wakes up for a long time.

*hic* *hic*

My condition surfaces again. I won't be able to concentrate when I am as excited as this.

Calm down.

I open the mirror and take a wooden pipe out of it.

*hic*

I cram the whistle with a mixture of tobacco and marihuana. It helps me keep my cool and think.

*hic* *hic*

I put the wood to my lips and take a big breath while holding a lightener to the opening.

My lungs fill with the smoke and I feel the calming effect of the mixture.

I try putting the lightener into my pockets but I don't have any. I am completely naked. Where is my coat? I look around the room and find it hanging in the corner,where I left it.

I put on some underwear, some trousers and a blouse which allows a really deep insight (You never know when you have to question a man). The coat covers everything. I tie my hair into a knot and cover it with a hat.

Let's see what happened here..... My inspection skills are hopefully as sharp as when my detective office froze.

I look at the hibernation chambers. There I pick up the piece of sugary deliciousness with my pencil. My eyes muster every detail. I put the candy piece into a plastic bag.

My walking direction follows the trace of destruction to the cat.

Thick, white clouds leave my mouth while I use my deduction skills to their full extent.

In the end I turn around to face the stairs and climb the second intact helix up.
