    An Ace up My Sleeve

    Cap 1: Alice in Her Drunken WonderlandThe door creaked open with hesitation, allowing a small stream of light out in the hallway

    to illuminate a portion of the floor. A girl, her platinum blond hair stuck to her face, enteredthe quiet, dark room. She stumbled to a red antique chair and grabbed a hold of itsarmrest tightly to keep her balance. A small giggle escaped her lips before she moved onto a large wooden desk at the far end of the room. As she grabbed hold of one of itscorners, she couldn't help but drop to her knees, chuckling with amusement."This place is huge!" she exclaimed to herself. Occasionally, a snort would follow with herlaughter, as if her nose wanted to join in on the fun. As she stumbled to get back on herfeet, which was an impossible task for her current state of mind, a shiny black antiquetelephone started to ring. Not stopping to think where she was or who could be calling, shepicked up the handset and pressed it up against her ear."Watari," a calm, smooth, and deep voice echoed through the receiver.The girl immediately could not hold in her laughs and lowered herself to ground once

    again, taking the corded handset with her."I suppose this is not Watari, then," the voice spoke."You sound like a dragonfly." The girl snorted loudly. She was still holding onto the corner ofthe desk to keep her chest up, but it didn't help enough to keep the rest of her stable."A dragonfly is an insect and there fore could not possibly have a larynx to converse with. Icould never sound like a dragonfly, unless you are referring to the physical sound it makeswith its wings when it's in motion. Even so, both compression waves would be completelydifferent."The girl just chortled more, not taking in any of what the voice from the receiver told her.Instead,she lifted herself once again onto her wobbly legs. Sounds of rapidfootstep came from outside in the hall, so the girl knew time was limited with this mysteriousman."I'm so wasted!" the girl laughed hysterically, her cheeks pink as bubblegum.

    "I've already deduced that the moment you spoke," the man responded without anyconcern. "Could you please put Watari on the phone?""Okay, Mr. Dragonfly, but I don't think he will fit," she giggled, but then contemplated it asan afterthought. The door behind her suddenly swung open, and an old man with white-gray hair and a matching mustache shuffled into the room, completely winded. Justseconds before, he was running around the house, looking for the mentally unstable girl.As soon as he spotted the handset in her hand, he quickly pulled it away and put it to hisear. "Ah, L, my apologies. Miss Alice left my site for only a second, and somehow shemanaged to evade my vision." Watari sighed. He produced a plain, creamed-coloredhandkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead."So, that was Alice then," L pondered to himself.Alice giggled with more enthusiasm as she stared at her hands. "My hands are huge!" She

    then held them up to Watari. "Do you see this? They're almost as big as that caterpillar onyour face!"Watari sighed once again, frustrated with himself for letting her get this way."As much as I would love to ask why Miss Alice is intoxicated, I think it would be best if I justlet Bygones be bygones and get back to business," L spoke up, letting his good friend dealwith the problem himself instead of adding to it. Watari thanked him repeatedly as hepushed Alice's hands away from his face."So, what about the twenty-fourth? I believe by then you should have your workcompleted," Watari suggested.

    With Alice's hands returned to her, she turned away from Watari and followed the cordthat was hooked from the handset to the rest of the telephone. The push dial rested on thefront of the phone, begging, in Alice's mind, to be messed with. Without any hesitation,Alice stuck her forefinger into one of the holes and pushed down.Watari quickly pulled her hand away before she could do anything more. "Miss Alice,please reframe from that misbehavior," he pleaded.Alice only responded with a laugh and a snort."You said beaver," she chuckled.

    L ignored the girl's presence and continued on with the conversation: "I will be done withthe case sooner than that, so I will most likely depart on the nineteenth."Watari paused for a second, taking in L's words, but soon found himself smiling with relief."All right, the nineteenth, then. I will have everything prepared for your arrival."L took this as the end of conversation and thanked Watari for his work before he hung upthe phone. As he set his cell phone down, he took a look back at his laptop screen in fronthim. A small smile crept on his face as he placed his thumb to his lips."Dragonfly, huh?"A breeze rolled in through the open window, pulling lace curtains along with it. The room litup from the sun's rays, warming the room to a cool temperature. Alice groaned as she satup in her mangled bed. She was never still when she slept, so sheets scrunched at the endon the mattress and covers twisted around her torso weren't all too surprising to her. As sheuntangled herself from the comforter, a quiet knock came from her door.

    "Yeah, uh, who is it?" she asked, her headache throbbing from the sound of her own voice.The light entering the room also didn't help her hangover. It was bright andblinding, making her eyes squint with discomfort."Breakfast is ready, and it would be nice if you could come join us," Watari said.Alice groaned in response and held her forehead tightly. "All right, I'm I'm not going to behappy about it."

    "I'm pleased to hear you're back to normal." He then turned away from the door andproceeded down the hall. After everything that happened last night, Watari could onlysmile with joy that the newest member was getting along well with everyone else. At first,he was concerned, not really knowing how she would favor in the home, but after amonth's time passed by, the results had been more than satisfactory.

    Alice pulled herself out of bed slowly, still cradling her forehead. The pain came in differentwaves, but it was nothing she couldn't handle.She knew the only cure for her hangover, or at least a way to make it suck less, was orangejuice. So she grabbed her pair of skinny jeans off the floor and tried to maneuver herselfinto them as best as she could. Feeling like throwing up didn't help, but after a smallstruggle on her part, she managed to get the pants on. She tore off her pajama shirt nextand then proceeded to try and hook her bra behind her. After failing a couple rounds, shehuffed angrily at the piece of undergarment and tossed it to the side. She could livewithout a bra for one day. Instead, she picked up one of her T-shirts and sniffed it to make

    sure it was clean. It smelled like oranges, so that meant it was still fresh in her book. As soonas she was completely dressed, she made her way out of her white-walled room andwalked down the hall toward the kitchen. The entry way sat at the bottom of the stairs, tothe right.

    The curtains were open, and sunlight was pouring into the house, making the orphanageseem alive. It would have been deemed a pleasant day, but, to Alice, it was a morning ofhell. She could hear the laughter of some children in the dining room, the sounds of utensilshitting their bowls and plates full of food. The smells of bacon and eggs filled the house, butit all made Alice feel sick. The only thought on her mind was orange juice.She gradually made her way to the archway that led into the dining room. As soon as shewas inside, two children called out to her."Alice!" they both squealed simultaneously. There was only pair of twins in the orphanage:Lea and Liam."You look awful," Mello spoke up from across the room.

    "She had enough to drink last night to knock out an elephant," Matt added.Alice couldn't defend herself due to the twins' voices currently echoing in her brain;though, if she could, the both of them wouldn't hear the end of it."Come sit next to me," Lea sang, taking her small hand and grabbing ahold of Alice's. Alicefollowed willing and sat down in a padded,wooden chair that was placed between thetwins."Here you go, Alice!" Liam grinned, putting a cool glass of orange juice in front of her.

    Alice looked at it with a sparkle in her eye. "Oh, Lea! Liam! Thank you!""We know you like orange juice, so it's no big deal.""I'm surprised you haven't thrown up yet.""I could come over there right now and throw up on you, if you like, Mello." Mello onlyglared back at Alice as she took a sip of her orange juice. She sighed inwardly withrelief as the cold liquid ran down her dry throat."Do you remember anything from last night?" Near asked. He was using two fingers to holdon to a fork as he poked at his eggs."I don't really remember muchugh, my head.""Would you like something to eat?" Lea asked."I can't think of food right now.""Maybe next time, you'll think before you go get wasted.""I swear to God, Mello, I'm going to come over there and shove this cup down your throat."

    "I liked to see you try, alcoholic!""Alice isn't addicted to alcohol, Mello," Near stated, shifting Mello's anger from Alice tohimself."Nobody asked you!""Well, I'm surprised you're not puking, seeing as how you ate three boxes of cereal lastnight," Matt chuckled with the sounds of his handheld game ringing in the background. Thelight from the screen reflected off his goggles that he wore over his eyes, making his faceimpossible to decipher.Roger walked into the room. "Matt, please put your game away when you're at the table."Watari walked in right behind him, taking in the table full of children. "Well, I'm glad to seeyou've joined us all this morning, Miss Alice."Alice only groaned back, taking in another sip of her drink.

    "Well now, everyone, I'm glad to see that all of you get along great with Miss Alice, and Iwould like to toast in the success of our newest member," Roger announced, smiling. Hegrabbed ahold of a glass of water and held it up in the air. Most of the children giggledand grabbed their glasses as well, save Mello, Near, and Matt, who grabbed their glassesunenthusiastically. There were also a few other children who didn't look to want toparticipate in the honor of celebrating Alice's arrival, but they certainly didn't want to goagainst Watari or Roger. Alice would have grabbed her glass too, if she wasn't alreadychugging her juice."To Alice!" Roger cheered.

    "To Alice!" the rest repeated with joy. They all started to take a sip of their drinks.Watari took this opportunity to give more good news: "And just so everyone knows, L will bereturning in just one week to meet our newest member."Everybody sprayed their drinks at the same time in surprise. Alice dropped her empty cup

    on the table and ran out the room into the kitchen, where she proceeded to puke in thesink."Dear Lord!" Miss Jane, the housekeeper, gasped from inside of the kitchen. The children inthe dining room didn't seem to notice as they all choked on liquid that they had inhaled intheir lungs."Well,Watari, what will L think when he comes back home?" Roger remarked, sighing as hewatched the children around the table gag and cough. Watari only responded with thesame sigh.To be continued
