"HA! See, he doesn't care." Felicity stuck her tongue out rather childishly towards her brother who just rolled his eyes before turning back to Bryce as she watched. Her eyes widened as she watched the drops before smiling brightly. "That is so awesome! You people are so cool! I wish I had a power that is that awesome! I can only shapeshift into a lousy wolf." She grinned up at Bryce. "Do you think they would mind if I asked them questions?" She asked about Nina and Kai. She wasn't really shy, not really, she just didn't want to be rude.


Hazel tilted her head as she listened before just stared back at Antonia. She looked like she wanted to ask another question that would probably piss Antonia off, but Kris firmly slapped her hand over the wolf bitch's mouth. There was something in Antonia's eyes that screamed for them to tread carefully and Hazel obviously wasn't getting it. Hazel growled at Kris and she removed her hand, but Hazel seemed to be done with her questions.

"Are we done here?" She asked as she looked around before back at Ian.

"Uhh... wait! Everyone, this is the Branagan boys, but you already knew that. They'll be staying with us until Haven and Celene get back. There, I think that about covers it." Ian mused as Hazel nodded and left the room.

"I feel sorry for whatever lad gets stuck mated to her." Egan muttered as Donovan snorted out a laugh and looked over at Antonia.

"Hey, Kat. You alright?" He asked with concern as they boys were now all looking over at her. They had just learned a lot about her, but... none of them seemed to be even bothered. In fact, they were acting like everything was just normal.

"Wait, Kat?" Ian asked with a confused look.

"Yep. We know her as Katherin. Stayed with our pack when we were wee bairns. She's family. Don't matter who or what she is. She's always going to be family." Egan said as the others seemed to agree.

Bryce chuckled as he let the water evaporate. "Nina would love your questions....Kai might be a little more resistant but don't take it personally. She just doesn't like people." He mused with a small grin. "Just get to her when she's with Kyler. He tends to make her open up whether she wants to or not."


Antonia relaxed once Hazel left the room but was taken off guard by the boys' concern. Surprise that came out as anger as she turned to them. "No. Katherin is who ye consider kin. You still see that....that act I put on. I'm not really some lost little lone wolf. I wish I was. Open ye damn eyes. Ye don't know what I've done. The hell I've caused. Hell, neva even questioned why I just stopped comin around. Guess what its cause the rest of ye pack saw me for what I really am. Started te put pieces together. They saw the thing I am. A monster. Bloody hell and ye sittin there like nothin's changed!" She demanded, above all just looking frustrated. Why couldn't they see what was in front of them?! "Ye know what....bitch had the right idea." And with that she left the room, quickly heading downstairs as Kai groaned.

"She knows I can't go after her...." She sighed, looking to the boys. "Look..she's not great with people actually caring about her. I don't know what happened over there but I will say this; when she's scared she chooses her wunde over any other form because to her its safety. That's the wolf in her.....probably what she is now to clear her head." She added, as if hinting how the boys could find her. Hell, wasn't like she was able to run after her. Besides, they all had a lot of catching up to do.

"So... are you saying she's kind of like Hazel?" Felicity asked with a wrinkle of her nose. Marco just gaped at his sister before slapping his hand over her mouth.

"She didn't mean it like that! She's very sorry." He said with a nod as Felicity struggled under her brother's grip before licking his hand. He groaned as he yanked his hand back and rubbed it on his shorts. "Gross!"

"Then don't do that! It was just a simple question!"

"But a rude one! Nobody wants to be compared to the evil bitch. Besides, I've heard stories. Kai Freedmon could eat you alive if she wanted to. Didn't you see what she did to Diana, not that that stuck up little slit didn't deserve it, but still!" Her brother hissed as Betta had to cover her mouth to keep from laughing. Oh boy, wait until Kai heard this...


All of the boys sort of had the same reaction, even Ciaran; they just sort of blinked and watched her. As soon as she left the room, Donovan was the first to speak after Kai spoke. "Well... if she thought that would scare us away, she really doesn't remember us that well." He mused.

"Technically when a person runs away from a wolf, don't they realize that we sort of consider it a game of chase? Guess we need to go prove ourselves now." Egan said with a sigh as the others nodded. And as one unit, they all headed out of the room and out towards where Antonia had left, intent on hunting her down and making things clear.

As soon as they left, the remaining people heard a cough and Kyler looked over to see that it was Suni trying to hold in a laugh.

"What's so funny?" Ian asked with a raised eyebrow as she giggled before trying to cover it up.

"Men are. Well, I don't know, that whole scene was ridiculous! Who knew Irishmen were such a trip. That poor women, being stuck with those boys as family." Suni got out before giggling again.

Bryce cracked up laughing, shaking his head a bit as the siblings interacted. "They're more similar than Kai cares to admit but....she will set you straight. I don't think she'd quite eat you alive, mate, but she would freeze your ass to the ground and leave you there if you annoyed her enough. Kyler, bless his soul, has gotten her to do more talking and less freezing in the past few months, though, hence why I said to approach her when he's around too."


Antonia was by the back door when she heard the footsteps. "Bloody Hell...." She grumbled, opening the back door and started running. Once she felt herself barely touching the ground she cracked her neck and felt the familiar warmth of the wolf take over. Her large, artic white paws thundered against the snowfall, thinking if she could make it into the woods she could possibly lose them. Her wolf was a smidge taller than the packs form, fur pure white save for a patch of black over her left eye. The form really was quite spectacularly gorgeous...but also fiercely strong. She was in no mood to talk....They were all better off if they hated her anyway. They were all safer.

Kai chuckled with a light shrug, "They'll be good for her though....." She mused, knowing eventually Antonia had to see how much those boys cared for her. Hopefully she didn't push them away too hard....

Marco just stared at Bryce with wide eyes before shaking his head. "Women. They're the scariest creatures on Earth." He said and Betta cracked up again.

"Oh you're such a baby Marco! Oh look! Uncle Callum is getting us food! Come on, I'm hungry! It was nice to meet you Bryce!" Felicity waved before dragging her brother towards the kitchen.



The boys made it to the stairs leading to outside when they stopped. Ciaran tilted his.head as his nostrils flared. Shifting to his wolf form, an unnaturally large timber wolf, before leading the way to Antonia, his shifted brothers following behind him.



"If you say so. That's a lot of testosterone to deal with. When I have pups, I hope they're all girls!" The look of horror Cael shot her when she wasn't looking had Kyler and Ian cracking up.

Bryce chuckled as they ran off, shaking his head and looking to Betta with an amused smile. "Quite the family...." He mused, leaning back in his chair but took her hand and kissed the lightly on the back of her hand.


Antonia heard the thunder of paws behind her and a soft growl rumbled through her chest. Why couldn't they just let her be?! They were always horribly stubborn, even as pups. She flew over a fallen log and darted into the woods. She ignored the pang in her heart. She didn't want to feel this way. Over a decade with no real attachments save for whatever she had with Kai and she'd faired just fine. She didn't need these boys like everyone apparently thought she did. Her heart, however begged to differ.


Kai cracked up laughing, "Girls can be just as bad, though, love....imagine all of them as teens. That's a lot of mood swings to deal with too..." She countered, even though she herself was having a girl. Honestly, she was a bit odd but she knew she'd feel more comfortable if she was having a boy. She just knew them better than girls.

"It is, but it's a nice family. And they obviously like you. Just like I said they would." Betta teased him with a grin, her cheeks warming as he kissed the back of her hand. He was just too sweet. "You'll probably meet their parents eventually. Callum's siblings are so beyond sweet. Karen is possibly one of the nicest people you'll ever meet."


It seemed like Antonia was getting away before a large pure black wolf hopped out in front of her. Donovan. Before she could turn in another direction, Ciaran appeared and then Egan and Tavis, effectively stopping her for the moment. Egan let out a whining nose as he pawed at the ground, obviously wanting her to change so they could talk.


Kris took a moment to think about it before shaking her head. "Nope. Still want all girls!" She said with a grin. "So how is YOUR little bundle of joy. Driving you crazy yet? When are you having your baby shower?! I'm invited, right?" Kris shot out the questions excitedly.

Bryce chuckled softly, running his thumb over her knuckles. "Well if they're you're family I can't wait to meet them." He told her with a small smile, kind of forgetting that there were others around. It was more the explaining himself over and over that was daunting but honestly Betta put up with so much. He was still amazed at how lucky he was.


"It smells....yummy. Odd...but yummy." Lily informed them as they waited on line for their food at McDonald's. She was currently holding Erik's hand. After all he couldn't see....and she was a little nervous being around so many new people.

Nina chuckled lightly with a shake of her head as she noticed the grass stains on the two little kids. They'd had fun at least though... "Dev...what do I eat here?" She asked softly, knowing he'd brought it home once or twice but she never knew the exact name of it.


Antonia was forced to skid to a stop, a soft growl emerging as she realised the boys were surrounding her. She knew she could easily fly off or hurdle over them but what was the point? They'd just keep after her. She looked to Egan as he whined, letting out a huff of her own. She focused and arched her back a little once she'd shifted back, grumbling under her breath when she realised her glasses were probably back at the house. Her blue and black hair cascaded down to her lower back flying around in the faint wind. "What?!" She said shortly, "Why ah ye so damn stubborn?!"


Kai chuckled lightly with a small shrug, "Hyper as anything. I love her dearly but she really needs to calm it down. I'm not sure about the baby shower....you'll have to draw the answer out of Sare but of course you can come..." She assured the wolf girl with a small smile.

Betta just smiled at him, feeling happier than she had in a long time. And the best part? Ever since her brief lessons with Peter, she had been practicing like crazy and she couldn't actually hear anybody! She could block her family out so they weren't all fighting for attention in her head. It was... paradise.


"It is really good." Erik promised her with a smile. "And you get toys to go with your meals too! It's awesome. Sometimes the toys aren't that great, and sometimes they are." he told her, not seeming to mind as they held hands. If anything, it helped him to get around in a crowded place like this.

Devin was looking at the menu, his arms crossed across his broad chest as he tried to figure out what he wanted to eat. "I usually get you a Big Mac and a Chicken sandwich." He told her as he flashed her a small smile. Today had been going very well so far. The kids had definitely hit it off and that made him happy. Erik needed more friends. He only had one his own age and to be honest, she kind of scared Devin a little.


As soon as Antonia shifted back to her human form, the boys did as well. Tavis had his arms crossed over his chest as he sighed. "Come on, Kat. Talk to us. You're running away and not even giving a chance to get to know you. The real you, although I'm pretty sure I have a good idea of who that is."

"Besides, you more than most people know just how stubborn we are. Blame da." Egan said with a shrug.

"Just... talk to us? You're family. I don't care what you say, you always will be and nothing can change that." Donovan spoke up as well.


Kris just grinned excitedly before hopping up. "Oh! Time to get back to the bakery. I get to make cupcakes for the Kindergarten class. How exciting is that?!" She beamed. "See you guys later! Take it easy, Kai!" She said as she pretty much flew out of the room.

"Well... never boring when Kris is around." Ian mused with a grin over at Kai. "And you just said she could go to your baby shower. Good luck." He teased her.

Lily's head perked up at the sound of getting a toy with her food. "A toy? Like...what kind?" She asked curiously, stepping closer to him when a larger family scooted by their group. Too many people. Too many new people in a confined space. She checked quickly to ensure her markings were still covered. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea....


Nina nodded, returning his small smile as Iggy ordered for his part of the group. "Okay....as long as fries go with that...." she said simply, her eyes scanning the board again. "Dev, what's a shake?" She asked curiously. The day had done a lot to relax her nerves and she was grateful for it. She just hoped it stayed this way when they got home.

.
Antonia shook her head, "Ye don't get it. Ye don't wanna know the real me. Its not a pretty story like the one I spun for ye da. Really? Ye want family that wakes up in the middle of nowhere not remembering what happened for the last week covered in blood that ain't their's? Want family whose powers kept them from making any real connections. Whose powers get out of control more often than they'd like to admit. Who is hunted every day of her bloody life because of what she is? Realized she can't be killed because she's tried by her own hand? Monsters like me don't get family. We don't get friends. Its too dangerous." She told them flatly, her voice like ice but she just sounded frustrated. Her inclination to flee was back but this time she fought back a very different form. Unbeknownst to her her eyes flickered between violet and blood red.


Kai chuckled, giving Kris a small wave before looking to Ian. "She's entertsining at least..." she mused with a small shrug. She hoped the boys were getting through Antonia's thick skull. She didn't need her in a bad mood when she met Devin. She had a feeling it would already be tense.
