India nodded a little and got up.
"Well...what do you want to do for your seven other hours here?"

The mews had jumped around in assorted bunches, all sleeping on a large antique piano. She looked at them briefly before smiling and shaking her head.

"I'm gonna grab a shower..if you need anything Ask Sokuro..he's a good boy."

Dragoons eyes wandered to the piano and he walked over to it,cracking his knuckles he started to play an old blues jazz tune he had heard,singing almost like a whisper.

"A kiss to build a dream on..."

India put shampoo in her hair and massaged it into her scalp, breathing a large sigh of relief.
<So he's staying?> she was aware of the presence by her left foot.
"AHHH! DON'T DO THAT!!"
Linara grinned gently up at her. <Oh come on...It's just your fur>
"It's called skin...and it creeps me out you guys can sneak up like that!!"
<Your wings are covering everything though...so I knew it'd be okay...>
"You're lucky...." she shook her head and began to rinse out her hair, putting conditioner in and then moving to wash out her wings.
'So what was this sudden intrustion about?'
<Your "prize" is singing and playing the piano...some love song or something> The mew jumped up onto a high rise of the shower, something India custom built for those occasions.

Dragoon had managed to pull his old fedora hat from somewhere and was now in full swing,a pair of shades on his eyes,moving in full rythm to his music.

"Maaaaaybe,you`ll think,of me.."

All three: We're done. Ready to go now, Uncle Vile?

A small package appeared next to Vile, inside contain money and note. 'Entertainment money. FM didn't want me to give you any for them, said you should learn the pain giving hard earn money up for children. Then I asked him if he knows what it feels like. He couldn't comment so here you go.' the note read.

<STOP!!!!!> Dragoon heard all screams and angry yowls from all the mews...who were NOT happy with being disturbed from naptime possibilities.

----

India shook her head as she heard the yowl. "Are they okay!?"
<Fine...as I said...its naptime...Dragoon is too loud.>

Dragoon backed away,taking his shades and hat off looking over at the mews,"uhm sorry,I really am,its just ...music does weird things to me,just like Tom,heres a hint leave a guitar anywhere near him or probably Moore too and you`ll have rock in two seconds"

They all growled.
<How much did she pay for you!?> Mayve snapped.
<He's worthless>
<Noisy>
<Big>
<Crowding>
<Stinky>
<I still say he's a waste of good money.> they all growled and tried to go back to sleep.

-------

India came into the room with Linara behind her, dressed in dark shimmering maroon pajama pants and a shirt with a little symbol etched in gold on the trim of the sleeves and on the bottom. Her large purple wings were fluffed and dried.

Dragoon sighed and looked over at India,"sorry about that,I got carried away"

OOC: Now I can finally get into this IFF! ^___^ I passed all my exams, so I'm fine! NEway....where would I start...oh yeah!

IC: Steven finally shook out of his sudden shock and sputtered out, "What'd you say?"

She asked if she can keep them once again. This caused Steven to be a bit angry since he didn't know what was going on.

"Riko....could I ask you to come here a minute?" He walked a few feet away from Tom and Moore was, and Riko followed.

"What in the world is going on, Riko-Chan?" Steven asked, a bit exhaused from all the stuff he's been doing lately.

"I'll explain later, but don't worry, okay?!" Riko cheerfully said.

As much as Steven wanted to go and find out about what's happening, he couldn't find it in him to press on even further.

"Oh, okay...." Steven hesitantly said.

"Great!" Riko smiled and pat Steven on the back.

Riko quickly went to another room to get something, altough she couldn't say what she was gonna get.

Steven shook his head and said, "Hi..." to both Tom and Moore, feeling quite uneasy about what was going to happen.

She shook her head. Linara proudly strutted across the carpet and plopped down on the couch in Dragoon's spot.
"Mmm that's alright." so took a sip of water from a bottle and stuck it back in the fridge. "I need to leave for work in an----I missed my time." she smirked as she heard Linara giggling. "Oh well."
She plopped down on her couch and curled up, the mew taking her lap.

Moore shook Stevens hand,"don`t worry,your the only one worried here"

---

Dragoon sat down on the couch,"I`m sorry our first hour didn`t go so well"

She shook her head at Dragoon.
"Dont worry about it."
<Why shouldn't he be sorry?> Linara spoke privately to her.
'What do you want me to do? Drop kick him out because he's taking your side of the couch?'
<Yes?>

Dragoon played about with his hat,"I see....maybe some time you could stop by the studio,sometimes we have a play session with the band,we do sound good"

She nodded and closed her eyes, trying to find a comfortable position to sleep. Sokuro tossed him the remote. <Watch whatever you want...but do it QUIETLY.>

Dragoon nodded and immediately hit the mute button,flicking through channels finally coming to a good movie.

"ah,they came from the greenplant where its the dawn of the dead and they always come back......5,I remember tom lent me this one"

India turned a few more times, grabbed a pillow and lay her head down on that pillow on dragoons lap. She was asleep before he could protest or anything, her wings settled down into neat little folds on her back. Linara sat between them, purring.

At first he wondered how she kept warm...but all the mews jumped from their spots and gathered around her, all letting out purrs and bundling together.

Dragoon didn`t even blink,he was engrossed in the movie,"...bah that things faker than Viles sick day excuses"

ES*Tugging on one arm*: Villle.

B*Tugging on the other arm*: Viiiilllle.

R*Looking up at him with big eyes*: Vile.

All three*Crossing their legs*: We have to go to the bathroom.

OOC: Just can't go without one babysitter having potty detail.

Vile : "okay well I`m sure this resturant has them,now Racquel you take your sister to the girls while I take Bastion here to the lads,is that okay?"

R: I don't know how to change a diaper. Don't you know, their not potty trained yet. Their not even a year old. *then runs off to go to the bathroom.*

Viles eye twitched,"DIAPERS.......AWWW FU-er...frig eh-heh....aw crap"

---

Dragoon : "you should really watch this India,its funny as hell...India"

He looked down at his lap and almost jumped off the couch,"uh-oh...oh nonono,this dosen`t look good at all.....well,it is kinda cute heh...wait,her bfs Moore...crap I`m screwed if he sees me like this"

After Riko got dinner ready, she explained the entire auction to Steven.

"You spent HOW much?!" Steven's voice rose.

"Relax, Steven! It was LISA'S money, not hours!" Riko sipped her meal. "And yes, she DID chew me out for it, though..." She noticed the stare, and sighed. "If you wanna know the EXACT amounth...I spent 200 dollars on Tom, and another 35 on Moore."

OOC: Pun in tending?

IC: A diaper bag appeared out of now where with two notes attached to it. 'Thought you would need this' said one note. 'How to change a baby' the other note read, and a set of instructions were listed.

Vile : "if your mom wasn`t married to FireMaker,I`d swear we`d had been together for ages,she seems to know what I`m always thinking...alright this dosen`t look too difficult"

---

Tom bit down on an apple he had brought,"so do you have any plans for what your gonna do with us,or is it a bad question?"

Moonbeam watched Dragoon.
<yes...and Moore is gone for another 7 hours..she'll be up by then ya know?> He smirked and lay his head back down on the mass of feathers. <You should relax...she's really warmed up to you.>

"Oh boy....." Steven rubbed his head, sweatdropping a bit.

Steven thought to himself, "It'd be only right if we pay Lisa back.....and the money does go to my friends..."

Steven shook his head a bit and said, "It's okay, Riko...I was just a bit stunned..that's all..."

He took a breath of relief and smiled. "I suppose it's good that you paid a bit more since the money does go to KMT Studios, and it'll benefit our friends, so don't worry about it."

Steven scontinued to eat his meal, feeling his natural optimism kick in once again...

Dragoon sighed in releif,"well thats good to know,wonder if theres anything good on...nope...rerun.....10 minute...fre..nonononono...ah this looks okay,sci-fi channel"

Moonbeam kept a silent vigil. He jumped on Dragoons lap.
<Did you ever have any children?>

Dragoon : "....no,I could never have children sadly"

This time an envelope appeared near Vile. The note read: 'It's not that I know you, it's just that I know my children and this has happen with almost every babysitter we ever had. Be nice to stick with just one for awhile.'

He studied Dragoon for a moment, focusing his eyes in on his face and mewed soft, so soft his mouth didn't even really move.
<But you seem so...sincere....> he topped off. <What are you doing here of all places if you lived somewhere else?>

Dragoon : "three letters,K,M,T,I had lost everything in one day and almost lost myself...when they arrived it was a blessing and I`m now the Dragoon you see today,I owe them a lot,I would`ve gone insane if I had stayed home..."

He nodded gently and shivered in the night air. Moonbeam darted back to the warm folds of the wings, and shivered again.

-------

The doors of KMT were pried open by a crobar, they had been locked for the absence of members.

Racqel comes skipping back to the table and sits there waiting for Vile to return. She looks out the window and see something that catches her eye. Something shiny went by and down the stair. Mezmeried by it shininess, she goes outside and follows it down the street.

Vile walked out,having changed the twins just to see Racquel dart off down the road.

"....fer frig sake,c`mon kids..."

---

the KMT security system started up,well carboard zombies mounted on springs and the tentacle monsters in Toms office.

The figure pushed the cardboard aside, and sat in Toms chair, digging through his desk and taking all the money made in the auction.

---------

Dragoon heard a loud rapping at the door.

The figure had to quickly duck as two large ramrods slammed into each other,if it hadn`t moved it would`ve been 2-d,next came a spike trap that flung itself from the ground,just missing and impaling itself on the wall.

---

Dragoon managed to shift India off him and opened the door,looking about.

"oi down here"

"huh oh hello...lil dragon?"

"DADDY!"

She lept up into his arms and nuzzled his cheek.

"....uh....t-t-t-there must be some mistake here..."

"nah course there isn`t"

She snuggled up on his shoulder with an evil smirk.

"DADDY!" she squealed and nuzzled him, chewing his ear briefly. She jumped off and ran to her mother, stopping abruptly as Sokuro hissed at her from between the warm arms of his master.
She nodded.
Being a lot quieter she strode up to Dragoon. "Mommy is asleep isn't she?" she smiled wide. "Did Daddy make mommy's night and danced with her so she fell sleepies?" She grinned again and exhaled, noticing the little puff of frozen breath as it was visible for a second.
"mmm mommy makes it feel like arctic winter! She says there's no heat! I say she loves winter!!!!"

Dragoon : "I`m not your dad,shes still with Moore I`m just visiting....and I know the heatings off....I said I wouldn`t but.....your dad has to know..."
