(Esmee) Another gate kid (Mi's side)

Another gate kid

“It has changed.” Ruby mumbled letting go of my hands as soon as she got into the entrance hall her eyes darting around at everything wit out focusing on much until her eyes spotted Madeline who was now sprawled out on one of the blue sofas on her front with a biscuit in one hand and a colouring pen in the other that she drew angrily with on to a piece of paper on the cushions.

“Now this is what they will put into your brain,” Madeline confirmed pulling on Emmet’s arm and pointing at the sheet of paper in front of her while shoving in another big bite of biscuit as she talked. “They put it in here,” Madeline said pointing to her fore head. “They haven’t done you yet or hers there,” She confirmed pointing at me and smiling, “buts they got me and mummy but I stopped my chip from working see.” Madeline said getting to her knees on the chair and taking Emmet by the hand gently, “You just has to hits your head real heard!” Madeline Nodded and before anyone could see what was going to happen to stop it she sprang to her feet on the chairs turned to face the wall and launched an attack on it with her forehead.

“Madeline, No.” Emmet shouted reacting lightning fast at exactly the same time as I bounded across the room to try and stop the little girl form hurting her self even though in reality it was more just habit then the fact that I might have been needed to get her under control and time I crossed the room Emmet had her in a perfectly controlled hold restraint.

“Madeline, what you where doing is not tolerated here OK, Emmet said gently but firmly trying his best to ignore the fact that Madeline was struggling violently against him and thrashing her teeth at any part of him she got get close to.

“This place is a safe place and you will not be aloud to hurt your self or anyone else. So when you are feeling unable to keep your self safe I am going to OK.” Emmet finished bravely even though I was convinced that Madeline had not heard a word of what he had just said and had no intention of stopping her nosy protest anytime soon even so it was my job to try and talk her down to and I wanted to get a look at her head anyway so I got to my knees in front her fished a pair of gloves out of my pocket and attached them to my hands.

“This ones not going to be easy.” Emmet whispered gently as I bent in closer to him to get a look at Madeline’s head. “Her psychosis is crazy and she is going to start everyone else off in here when she gets to mingle a bit, plus I think she may have just urinated all over my lap,“ Emmet half smiled.

“Well,” I said half smiling back at him catching his eyes for half a second as I pressed my finger tips gently to Madeline’s for head, “If I don’t get a bathroom break soon at least I will be able to blame the mess on her.”

“Your bladder is ridicules you know,” Emmet chuckled.

“Not my problems; if you have an issue, best take it up with your baby.” I chuckled back rubbing him once on the shoulder before turning my attention back to Madeline who despite my assumptions seemed to be calming down slightly from inside Emmet’s induced cocoon; maybe she had just worn her self out.

“You’re Right Esmee,” Ruby suddenly said behind me making me jump up to a standing position startled which in turn almost made me wet my self. In all the commotion with Madeline I had forgotten that Ruby was still standing there looking for conformation that we where not going to eat her child the moment she left.

“Right about what Ruby,” I asked even though I was distracted by a rather more urgent need.

“She belongs here, well at least for now she does. You can look after her much better then I can alone right now. I mean look; he’s almost got her under control and you both reacted so quickly when she tried to hurt her self like that.” Ruby said sounding shocked as she stared over at her calming daughter with tears streaking down over her cheeks again, “I won’t contest the move here and I will sign the admission papers. I have to accept the fact that she needs help.”
