Description
tintin awoke early the next morning. it was 4 am, he didn't need to get up for another hour, but something was keeping him awake. he had had nightmares about his previous journeys abroad and couldnt help but wonder: why is this so called 'bounty hunter' targeting someone in brussels? was it him they were targeting? did they want revenge?
he wanted to take his mind off it.
he walked out of his room at marlinspike hall and crept into to bathroom. he ran a bath and got in. he closed his eyes and tried to relax, laying his head back on the bath. he let himself soak in the warm soapy water. he slid down into the water wetting his soft ginger hair.
minutes later he opened his eyes only to see another pair staring down at him. his eyes grew wide as he tried to recoil, but ended up under the water surface and hitting his head hard on the bathtub. he quickly sat himself. he gasped for air as he wiped the stinging water out of his eyes. he opened his eyes again and looked down, discovering the pair of eyes staring back at him belonged to snowy.

"snowy!" he said as he held a hand to his chested and sighed with relief. "you almost gave me a heart attack!"
snowy tilted his head and whimpered. tintin reached down and patted him gently, leaving his fur wet. snowy looked at him unimpressed.
"oops, sorry." tintin reached for a hand towel and dried him. "better?" snowy barked happily.
tintin smiled in reply. "wait.." he said as he looked around. "how'd you get in?" snowy walked over too the door which was open a crack.
"oh" said tintin as he climbed out of the bath and wrapped a towel around his waist. he dried himself and put his pajamas back on. he walked out of the room calling snowy after him.

---------

it was now 5 o'clock in the morning. tintin was already packed and dressed. "wheres the captain?" he asked himself. as he walked upstairs to haddocks bedroom. he cautiously opened the door. "haddock?" he whispered. all he heard was a loud snore. tintin turned on the lights and opened the curtains, even though it was still rather dark outside.
"captain, wake up!" he said in his normal voice as he begun to shake haddock. but all he did was snore and mumble in his sleep.
"WAKE UP!" tintin shouted. he pulled the covers off him, opened the door and slammed it shut again as hard as he could. snowy whimpered and ran downstairs.
"is everything alright, master tintin?" said nestor as he walked up behind him, still in his pajamas.
"we're going to be late for our trip to russia!" explained tintin, "i cant wake him up!"
"ah." said nestor, "excuse me ,sir."
tintin stood aside as nestor balanced on one foot, removed his slipper and threw it at haddocks head.
"ach!" mumbled haddock as he suddenly sat up rubbing the back of his head. "thunderin' typhoons! what was tha' for?"
"sorry to wake you, sir" nestor said as he retrived his slipper and put it back on. "but young mister tintin here say's that you are late for a journey to russia."
haddock continued to rub his head as he picked up his beside clock and gasped.
"BARNACLES!" he yelled as he rushed over to his closet adn picked out a large suitcase. he began to rip his clothes off they're hangers and stuff them into the suitcase.
"you get ye supplies together, lad." he said as he took off his pajama shirt and put on his favourite blue sweater. "i'll be down in a minute."

nestor followed tintin downstairs and asked "if i may, sir, why are you going to russia?"
"because," said tintin as he marched down the stairway, "theres a person who may be putting peoples lives at risk if they continue to live here..."
"if ye want details, nestor" haddock cried out from upstairs, "he fancies a young lass an' doesn't want anyone messing with her."
tintin went red again as he paused at the bottom of the stairwell.
"no i...im not." he said as he huffed off into his room.
"very well." said nestor as he turned to walk back up the stairs. "thats all i wanted to know."

--------------

tintin waited for haddock outside. it was now 5.45.
"great." he said unimpressed. snowy circled his feet and laid down.
haddock ran out of marlinspike hall and puffed over the car. nestor followed carrying his suitcase.
"thank ye nestor." he said as grabbed his bag and threw it into the boot. he sat in the passengers seat in the front. tintin got into the driverrs seat and snowy jumped up into haddocks lap.
"mister tintin." said nestor as he handed him a book. "master haddock told me about your lady friend. he mentioned that she wanted this book."
tintin gawked at the book in wander and awe.

he couldn't believe it.
"The Clockwork Slaves."
