The Nightingale ch 19White Collar: The Nightingale

Chapter Nineteen

"Neal!"

"Hey, Mozzie."  Neal greeted as he took a step back and put his hands up to keep the overly excited Mozzie at a safe distance.  "Whoa, easy Tiger, no hugging."

"I thought you were dead."

"He almost was."  Peter said.

"Oh...hello, Suit."  Mozzie said as though just noticing Peter before turing back to Neal.  "What happened?"

"I finally got shot."  Neal smiled ruefully and gingerly touched his side.

"Congratulations!"  Mozzie crowed proudly.

"Congratulation?"  Peter repeated.

"It's a badge of honor."  Mozzie explained.  "Besides chicks dig scars."

Chapter Eighteen

Neal kept quiet while Peter continued to stare at the drawing of Liao who he had identified as Jian Zhang.  His tone made Neal believe that Zhang wasn't the only one who blamed Peter for the death.  Eventually Peter put the drawing down.  

"We thought that we were closing in on a small money laundering operation."  Peter began explaining.  "What we didn't know was that they had also just received a large shipment of meth.  We walked in on a much more volatile situation than we had the man power to deal with.  They scattere

Chapter Seventeen

Peter stood in the small hospital shower letting the scalding hot water run down his back.  The blood had washed off long ago, but he couldn't find the motivation to leave the comforting warm water.  Part of him didn't want to leave the sanctuary and face any bad news that the doctors may have.  They had rushed Neal into surgery a little over an hour ago.  Diana had called the hospital ER ahead of time and they had been waiting with a full arsenal of medical equipment and personnel.

The first five minutes at the ER had been a blur of organized chaos.  Neal was completely unresponsive.  His

Chapter Sixteen

   "Okay, Neal, just hang on...everything's going to be okay."

   Peter knew that Neal couldn't hear him and was saying the words out loud more to calm himself than to reassure the unconscious Caffrey.  Reaching for his cell phone in his sash Peter was horrified to discover that he'd lost it somewhere between leaving Diana and finding Neal.  Peter swore under his breath, he didn't want to just leave Neal here while he went for help, but he didn't have any choice.

   "I'm sorry, Neal, I'll be back.  I promise."

   Peter's heart nearly failed him when Neal jerked awake with a violent gasp.

Chapter Fifteen

Peter stood at the safe house hotel sink washing the blood off his hands.  After splashing water on his face Peter vacantly stared at the red tinted water as it swirled down the drain.  Grabbing a towel he buried his face in it for a moment.  He wasn't sure what his next move should be.  The Nightingale was the closest thing he'd had to a lead on Neal's mysterious disappearance.

"A shower,"  Peter muttered to himself  "that needs to be my next move."

Peter was still wearing the kimono outfit that Asami had help him into.  He reached up to start trying to untie the ribbons that were holding

My latest addition found on Craigslist.

This is a female Orange Headed Black Blood Python. She will get four to six feet long and as thick as a telephone pole!!

I breed ball pythons and hognose, but I'm diversifying my display collection a little.

Her name is Zenia.

She is gorgeous! I love seeing different Ball mutations, and this is one I had yet to see a good clear picture of.

Hognose are wonderful- hard to get a hold of where I live though. I keep scouring Craigslist myself and hoping :)
