~*uncle nana*~

	marron hopped out of the preschool bus and ran inside.

"papa! papa! is mommy's brother coming today?"
"well we won't promise anything marron" said an honest father

	juunanagou always called marron and told preschooler he was coming, but broke his promise evertime. this time he told her he was gonna take her out all day. but krillin and juuhachigou were scepticle.

"i know hes comin! nana wouldn't lie would he?"
"i'm afraid so marron sweetie..."

	marron sat down in the bay window, and waited, chin on her hands she sat, patiently. krillin shook his fist.

"he had better come...or i'll...i'll ahhh!"
"sure you will krilliy...." 18 giggled
"it makes me so mad!"
"it makes me angry too, but still"

	marron fell asleep in the window, it was 7:30 already, krillin was sure he had done it again...

"thats it, we're blocking his phone number!"
"no you are not! he is pulling in the driveway!"
"re you kidding me?"

	krillin tapped on the porch light and walked outside. juunanagou walked up to him, slowly holding his head down.

"sorry im so late, can i talk to my neice please?"
"how could you do that to her?"
"brother! i new you were mean but to her?"
"im sorry! look, just let me see her!"
"alright she is in her room...nana, she waited for you all day..."
"i feel horrible i do...but i felt weird coming here."
"why? i am your sister!"
"i've never been part of a family! i gotta get used to this shit!"
"well go wake her up! damnit juunanagou! she was almost in tears!"

	juunanagou just looked at his sister's mad eyes then turned to walk into the tiny house. he walkled up to his neice's door and saw the sleeping child. he stepped closer and saw the little innhocent face, almost permanently painted on her. she slept so peacefully, he was hesitant to wake her.

"marron. marron wake up..."
"uncle...uncle nana!!"

	the small child jumped from her blankets and hugged juunanagou. he looked back at the doorway to see his sister and krillin smiling at the two.

"i came to take you today, but i guess its a little late, so i'll come back tomorrow ok?"
"no way, juunanagou! not even my brother-in-law gets away with lying, you can stay here tonight!"

	juuhachigou nodded, and marron gave him a puppy dog face. he sighed.

"alright alright i'll stay!"
"yay! uncle nana is gonna stay the night!"

	marron ran into the hallway to the closet. she grabbed a few blankets and a pillow. she set them ouit on the floor, just beside her bed.

"looks like someone is determined to keep you here brother"
"very funny sis..."
"well juunanagou, looks like you'll be sleeping on the floor, goodnight."

	juuhachi and krillin walked back to their bedroom just down the hallway and layed down beneath their blanket.

"so do think he'll actually go through with it this time?"
"i think my brother is afraid marron might hate him if he doesn't. his very unclehood is at stake!"

	the two laughed for a while before goin to sleep. marron had already let night conquer her eyes, but juunangou hadn't had the same luck. he lyed with his hands behind his head as he watched marron peacefully sleep. he untied his scarf and hung it on her bedpost, and tried to get at least a wink of sleep, he would need it, he had to make up all the years he never had with her.

"wake up you two sleepyheads!"

	juuhachi opened the blinds of marron's window. the light seemed to flood the room, leaving juunana's eyes in a bit of pain.

"couldn't you of turned on a light instead of blinding me!"
"of course not, i had to be sure you were awake!" said a lughing juuhachigou.
"okay uncle nana! what are we gonna do first?"
krillin stepped in and spoke "how bout breakfast?"

	marron sped to the kitchen, dragging juunanagou by his hand. he of course wasn't struggling, but wasn't exactly enthused, he hardly ever ate food.

"so bro, like pancakes?"
"what the hell is a pan-cake?"
"well its, cooked fluffy dough, in which you put in your mouth to eat..." said a sarcastic monk, in a matter of fact voice.
"okay okay, i get the point!"

	marron already made a plate for her and her uncle. she placed a big stack in front of the black haired android. she overflowed her plate with syrup, as well as the tablecloth.

"okay, marron be more careful. wouldn't want to ruin the table."
"hey juunana, why don't you try cutting it?"

	krillin said this while viewing the confused android trying to stuff the whole pancake into his mouth. juuhachi and marron giggled at him, and krillin just shook his head.
	after eating breakfast, marron ran to her room and picked out a purple dress and little matching shoes to wear. juuhachigou brushed marron's hair then put them up in pigtails with little bows. she put the brush in juunana's face, and he ran it through his hair out of force.

"ya didn't have to make me."
"uh yeah i did, you couldn't care if you looked like a bum today."
"well anyway, me and juu will be haome all day, just call if you need anything."

	juunanagou nodded as he grabbed marron's waist and put her on his shoulders. he took to the air, and flew toward the city, as they waved to juuhahcigou and krillin.

"so what does marron want to do first?"
"umm....how about the toy store?"
"alright, lets go to the toy store!"

	juunana had no idea what a toy store was but he figured the building labed "toys" was probably the right choice. he landed in front of the doors and a few people stopped stared then went of in their ways in a hurry.

"look uncle! a dollie!"
"well what do you do with that?"
"play with it of course!"
"okay...what is that?"
"that is a action figure, those are for boys."

	juunanagou lifted a eyebrow after noticing that they were all the  zsenshi. he looked back at marron who again had puppy dog eyes.

"what is it this time?"
"i want the dollie"
"well ok grab it and lets go."
"we have to pay for it."
"p-a-y? well im sure we are special watch." 

	juunanagou picked her up and begun to walk out the door when somebod stopped him. the man yelled at him, and he just stared back at him.

"you have to pay for that!"
"um no we don't but you do for touching me!"

	juunanagou covered marron's eyes then ki-blasted the man to the sky.

"problem solved..."

	juunana put marron atop his shoulders again, then took to the air. he grabbed marron off his shoulders and held her waist and put her infront of him.

"im flying uncle!"
"yep you sure are!"

	he laughed as she waved her arms around and giggled. all of a sudden she started squirming and pointing below them.

"ICE CREAM!!!"
"okay! we'll get some of whatever that is!"

	he flew down to the little stand and she ordered for them both. 

"two chocolates! with waffle cones!"
"okay little one, ill be right back."
"okay, what is he coming back with"
"ice cream uncle"

	the man soon returned holding two cones, and he handed one to each. marron immediately began licking it and smiled happily. after ki-blasting this man too, juunana just stared at it in confusion.

"uncle, you better eat it before it melts and gets all over!"
"okay"

	he carefully, stuck his tounge on the frozen treat, and well....liked it! he soon smiled like marron and ate away. after finishing marron pointed across the street. it was a movie theater.

"lets go see a movie!"
"what one?"
"how bout 'unicorn land'!"
"uh how bout not.."
"okay, then what do you wanna see uncle?"

	juunana eyed the posters for a good ten minutes before he finally answered.

"that one!"
"a kung fuie movie?"
"ha ha...no kung fu marron. and then we can sit there and make fun of how much better of fighters we are!"

	marron laughed, that sounded real fun, plus she got candy out of the deal! juunana took some tickes and helped himself to candy and popcorn, and the threw the people out of the good seats. (you know the ones where you get the best jujube throwing distance *grins*) they sat down and juunana put his feet up, and marron attempted to copy, but couldn't reach. juunana smiled at the childs antics. 
	the movie soon ended and they noticed the time, 9:00 pm. time to go, well at least they wouldn't get yelled at, if they got home before 9:30. 

"if anyone asks, popcorn was not your dinner"

	marron giggled and nodded in agreement. they took to the sky, but soon marron was already sound asleep, so juunana covered her up, but soon he noticed the doll was gone. when they got to the house he sat her down, and krillin looked at him weird seeing him speed off like that.

"that no-good..." *mumbles*
"relax, im sure he had a good reason.."

	as soon as they tucked her into bed, they heard footsteps come toward marron's room.

"juunana? why are you back?"
"you didn't think i was just gonna leave like that, did you? she left the doll i got her today at the movie theaters, she must of been having too much funny wailing that guy with jujubes"
"what?"
"um...nothing."
