Chapter 10
Joel, Iker, and Nasir were all in the game room playing monopoly currently. Although halfway through Joel had an anger fit and wouldn't stop cussing.
"It's not fair, how come I'm always stuck in jail?" He complained gripping his game piece unwilling to put it on the jail square. Iker was calm while multitasking on the game and his ds and only glanced at Joel's frustration, "better get used to it cause that's where you'll be in the future if you keep getting angry." He grinned causing Joel to snap even further.
"Shut up and play the game," Nasir roughly growled rolling the dice.
After a few more rounds Iker put down the ds and actually focused on his standing in the game a bit. He leisurely moved his game piece a couple of steps forward, "do you think Burr's check-up is done? I wanted to talk to him about going shopping.."
"I don't know, how about you ask Zadoc?" Nasir sighed in boredom laying his elbow on the carpet half asleep. Joel looked at the two who were clearly bored and some of his anger dispersed, a sheepish smile tugging his lips. Without warning, he jumped and attacked Nasir and the two twins instantly came to life. They all attacked and rolled around causing a ruckus, the monopoly game was destroyed but the boredom turned lively. Iker gripped Joel who was on the verge of shifting because of the excitement and bit down on his ear, Joel turned angry trying to shift the position, and yelled cuss words like a fisherman. "Don't bite me, you liquid diet baby! Fucking hell get off, save me, Nasir!"
Nasir looked at him with a deadpanned face, "You just insulted me too Joel, why would I save you now?"
Iker laughed like a hyena on drugs at Nasir's reply but before he could comment more Joel shifted the position and got him in a chokehold. "Be quiet," Joel shushed abruptly.
Nasir and Iker still thought they were playing around when Joel barked a low growl, "listen you overgrown bats!" With that, they turned quiet and the eerie quietness took place. They all listened but Iker didn't understand, "I don't hear anythi-" Nasir clamped a hand over Iker's mouth. A moment later Iker finally understood what they were on about, he could hear soft cries but barely muffled. They were downstairs basically under their own rooms upstairs. From the corner of the room where Burr's room should be had torture sounds coming from it.
"Is Olive up there?" Joel asked with furrowed brows.
"He's doing the laundry on the other side of the house, and Zadoc should be in his office or with the doctor who hasn't left yet," Nasir replied unusually talkative.
They paused and then glanced at one another appearing like little youths not knowing how to comfort another kid. "Should we find Zadoc or Olive?" Joel questioned.
Iker rolled his eyes and sprang out of Joels hold, "we go see what happed of course stop acting like kids." With that Iker strolled out with hesitant Nasir and Joel.
Iker hurried his steps becoming increasingly worried that the worst has happened and that Burr somehow got injured. He opened Burr's door and walked in without even knocking looking around for the little form, assuming he was in the bathroom he this time knocked on the door. "Burr, it's me Iker, are you okay?" When no reply came he looked at Nasir and Joel for advice on how to proceed.
"I'll just kick the door down," Nasir was about to go through with it when Joel clicked the door open looking at Nasir with distaste.
Inside had a little bear fighting with his own clothing, thinking that was the cause of the cries Iker bent down and helped Burr, when the furry creature was revealed giant tears rushed down his fur making his face wet and nose runny. "Is little bear sick?" Iker gushed picking the furball up when he noticed Joel's line of sight on the toilet. Joel had the face of worry as he flushed it and held his nose, "definitely sick, he threw up this morning's breakfast."
The statue Nasir went to Burr and tried feeling for some sort of temperature but it was of no use since he was in bear form. "We'll have to get the thermometer, oh yeah the doctor is still here like Nasir said, so let's go there," Iker perked up finding a comfortable position for the crying Burr to lay in. "It's okay Burr," Iker worriedly wiped the tears as he trailed down the hallway with two curious ducklings following behind him, one as quiet as a stone and another whose anger issues don't exist when it involves a sick Burr.
On the way was the laundry room anyway and there Olive laid inside passively clipping his nails while using magic to fold the dried clothing. He looked up at the appearance of company and was shocked to see a whining bear. "What happened?" He got up taking Burr out of Ikers hands, the crying Burr instantly went quiet and snuggled into Olive's neck.
Iker was surprised and then mocked, "no fair you already got Burr wrapped around your finger! He's been crying since we found him and somehow you magically make him stop!?" Iker looked wronged and seemed to want to throw in the towel. Joel wheezed and him and pointed a finger in his face calling him names, to get him to stop Nasir grabbed his hand and began pulling at them to get them to pop. Joel instantly wailed in despair, he hated when people popped his fingers.
"Tell me what happened?" Olive focused on Iker rather than their shenanigans. "He was crying in the bathroom in his bear form and was throwing up so we're going to get the doctor, we think he's sick," Iker explained in one breath and then patted the head of Burr soothingly. Olive had a strained expression as they left the laundry room.
When they made it to the nurse bay Zadoc was there with crossed arms appearing to have a be having a serious conversation with Mrs. Day.
