My billboardgui isnt cloning, or at least it seems to not?

DamageEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(damage,hit)
	print('absahdbhbdwhh')
	if damage == 10 then
		local Billboard = Instance.new("BillboardGui")
		Billboard.AlwaysOnTop = true
		local DamageLabel = Instance.new("TextLabel")
		DamageLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1
		DamageLabel.Position = UDim2.new(0.25,0,0.25,0)
		DamageLabel.Size = UDim2.new(0.5,0,0.5,0)
		DamageLabel.Font = Enum.Font.SciFi
		DamageLabel.Text = "-10"
		DamageLabel.TextSize = 24
		DamageLabel.TextStrokeTransparency = 0
		DamageLabel.TextColor3 = DamageColours["10"]
		DamageLabel.Parent = Billboard
		Billboard.Parent = hit
		--print(Billboard.Parent)
	elseif damage == 5 then
		local Billboard = Instance.new("BillboardGui")
		Billboard.AlwaysOnTop = true
		local DamageLabel = Instance.new("TextLabel")
		DamageLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1
		DamageLabel.Position = UDim2.new(0.25,0,0.25,0)
		DamageLabel.Size = UDim2.new(0.5,0,0.5,0)
		DamageLabel.Font = Enum.Font.SciFi
		DamageLabel.Text = "-5"
		DamageLabel.TextSize = 24
		DamageLabel.TextStrokeTransparency = 0
		DamageLabel.TextColor3 = DamageColours["5"]
		DamageLabel.Parent = Billboard
		Billboard.Parent = hit
		--print(Billboard.Parent)
		print('a')
	end
end)

im making a sword and this script is to make a billboardgui appear on wherever it got hit (the dmg taken)

This is in a LocalScript. It can print 'absahdbhbdwhh' and 'a' no problem. But when i uncomment the print(billboard.parent) nothing comes out in the output.

The hit parameter is whoever got hit by the sword, thats why billboard.parent = hit

Is it because I cannot make a new Instance of a BillBoardGui in LocalScript?

If thats true, i tried the same code without the remote event but just straight up in a server sided script. WHen i look at the workspace the billboard gui is cloned no problem but i cannot see the gui????

note: no error messages at all

all hep is appreciated ty
