(no subject)
Thanks for all the feedback so far! Hope you're not sick of me yet (when I get into a fandom, I go nuts with it!)
Another first person piece!
Title: Days
Rating: Er PG 13
Characters: John (as Marek), Agent Madison
Disclaimer: Nope, not mine (except Agent Madison, who's pretty boring :O)
A/N: Waking up in a strange place is typical for Marek, but this time is a little different...
This place is great…it really is.
It’s got everything, more bars than full-time inhabitants (pretty much…never actually counted) and all sorts of aliens coming in all the time from the spaceport, ready for some fun.
Just like me.
O’course sometimes you can go a bit far…
Which explains why I’m in the hospital.
Actually, I didn’t even know this place had a hospital, good thing too, because if the bandages around my left shin are any indication I’d have bled to death otherwise.
Couldn’t quite remember what happened to get me here…must have been a hell of shag or fight.
Shame really…
There’s a knock on the door - a vistor! I feel so popular!
Ah, good old Madison, one of the guys who brought me here, him and Harvek just showed up in my little old town back on Earth one day. Seemed like ages ago now, this place is pretty much just a rock in space, but there’s way more I can do here in one day than I could do in months - years even back on Earth.
Maddy’s looking a bit…odd, I mean he always does, but this is a bit different. He looks kind of afraid.
I don’t tip toe around this sort of crap so I ask. “What’s with you? You comin’ in or are you just admiring me or something?” I make a bit of a show of preening.
As usual Maddy doesn’t take the bait, these Agents, bunch of straight-laced flouncers, the lot of ‘em.
But it gets Maddy in the room, even though he shuffles from foot to foot and clears his throat before saying. “So…er…Marek…you’re all right?”
“Sure, except for the leg,” I gesture to it, “must have pissed someone off pretty bad, huh?”
“You…uh…don’t remember?”
I can’t help giggling, geeze, I’m the one with the blackout, but he’s the one that looks confused?
“Must have been a Hell of a bender,” I manage when I catch my breath. “Did I get on the news or something? You guys got news here? I’ve never noticed, so much to do…”
“No…I mean, yes, but…what do remember last?”
What’s it with all the questions? I consider asking that, but knowing Maddy, he won’t let it go ‘til I answer his question first.
I think hard about it, it’s all a bit of a blur, actually most of the time I’ve been here has been a bit of a blur, I drink a lot, it has to be said.
“Uh…well, I remember you went off on one of your little projects and Harvey was bitchin’ at me again, that guy needs to get a sense of humour.”
“That’s it? You don’t remember anything else?”
It seems really important to the guy for some reason, I’m starting to wonder, maybe it’s not blackout…Nah…
“Yep, that’s all. Really, what happened? Did I burn a bar down or something? ‘Cause if so…er…sorry.”
“No, no,” Maddy shakes his head, but he’s still got that weird look in his eyes.
“Did this place always have a hospital?” I ask, dunno why, but I’m curious about it.
“You’re in the Agency,” Maddy tells me and is out the door before I can say a thing.
The Agency, huh…haven’t been in here since arriving on this rock, and I didn’t stick around. Kinda regretted it ever since, I mean, what goes on in here anyway?
I guess, I have a few days to find out...

It's kinda mysterious...but then the Time Agency is that sort of place.
