"... Promise me? You'll really hurt me if you break your promise," Glenn warned as he gave in to her please on that condition. "I'll go buy some toothpicks and hopefully that'll satiate your needs. Also... um... on another condition."
~~~~~~~
"Hmph, maybe you should stop being clumsy..." Therese grumbled as she hid under the covers, wanting the earthquakes to end. What were they to do? Just stay here like this? What if the earthquakes lasted a week?
Oh no, what did she do?
~~~~~~
"I would mind it definitely. I... rather not die. Again. I think everyone was sad when I was gone. Right? Right?" Taini asked as she smiled happily at her husband. "But we should get the rheiard ready."

".... You know, normally I'm the one who says to do things you already did." Derrick laughed, revving the engine, or at least as loud as the quiet running machine could rev. "Come on, we should get moving." He said as he set into the air slightly.
~~~~~
The water continued to flow even after she spoke. Though the curse had been said, nothing else was said. Ace was surprisingly silent from the shower, in fact, there wasn't even the sound of him getting up. He simply lied there as the sound of the shower ran.
~~~~~
'..................................................' Anna held her hands behind her back. 'Fine, promise!' She said, though blinking as she wondered what exactly was the other condition.

"I want to rub your belly later," Glenn announced. "If you do this, I'll leave for half a day. You know I will, too." He then grasped her rather easily and tugged her out of the room. He then shut the room door, locked it, then sealed it with a metallic film. "Alright, I'll be back." He then unsealed his wings and walked out the door, taking off before his parents could say anything.
~~~~~~~~
"You're a jerk," Taini said with a laugh as she wrapped her arms around his waist, her chin to his shoulder as she eyed the sky. Everything still seemed peaceful. Was he taking his sweet time? Or was he bluffing about the amount of power he had?
She didn't exactly know.
"Where do you think he would be? We can't fly around blindly all day."
~~~~~~~~
"Uh..." Therese waited a few more minutes, then sighed. There was no annoying sounds from him. What could be going on? Maybe a prank. She grabbed a small vase before creeping to the bathroom door. She then slipped in and saw...

Aside from what appeared to be Ace sleeping naked on the floor of the shower, not a thing. He slipped during the quake apparently and hit his head, though he wasn't bleeding, luckily. He was just as he was: Unconscious, and he would probably wake up with a blinding headache.
~~~~~
"Can you smell his mana?" Derrick asked, pressing forward. "If not, we can always try asking your mother." He pointed out. "Either way, there has to be some way to detect him, doesn't there?" The man asked as he attempted to remain optimistic.
~~~~~
'... You can rub it.' Anna said, blinking. She seemed a bit confused by why he would make her promise on that. Either way, she bobbed on her feet.

Eventually Glenn came back with about a thousand toothpicks. He was going to keep an eye on her about them. "Anna, I'm back!" he called as he wanted to make sure that she was okay. "With your thousand toothpicks..." He had recalled how much of a problem he had just buying them, since it took too much energy to transmute a tree into a thousand toothpicks.
~~~~~~~
"There has to be a way... I think I can smell it, but it feels like it's everywhere. It's putrid, Dearest. I think..." Taini shook her head. "I think we need to go see my mother. So let's put the pedal to the metal baby!"
~~~~~~~
"Ugh, you're serious... You're... this is some cruel, sick joke," Therese moaned as she felt trapped. She had to help him out. She then grasped at Ace's arms, then hoisted him gently to the bed where she slept. She then dragged him onto it and placed the covers over him before walking out.

Outside, there were hundreds of Oresoren walking around, going about their business as normal, ignoring the quakes and babbling to each other. There was a groan from inside as well as another quake hit, though less violent than the previous.
~~~~~
"Of course!" Derrick said, boosting forward to the cove as he looked ahead. "I'm sure that we'll deal with this quickly." He told her firmly. "And then we'll drag that brat home and not let him outside for a while."
~~~~~
'...........' Anna immediately grabbed the box of toothpicks and ran to the bathroom with it. She then locked the door and leaned on it as not to let Glenn inside. She then opened the box and started eating the toothpicks as if they were sticks of pocky.

Glenn knew what was going on once that had happened. He felt hurt, like he warned her, but he decided to just sit outside for the rest of a day and explore. He walked upstairs and found a non-sexual vial that his parents had created thanks to some alchemist brat. He took the vial and sighed before opening and downing it heavily. He then walked out and sat down, letting the vial run its course. It was only another minute before he was hanging around as a white fox.
~~~~~~~~
"I think we should do more than that," Taini pointed out as she noticed the cove already. She knew the rheiard was fast, but this fast?
Heh.
Serenade was busy wiping down their boat, enjoying the sun they had.
~~~~~~~
Therese grimaced as she covered her head again, knowing that she was going to suffer again if she went outside. However, it was growing less violent. Maybe it would be over soon?

"Huh... Hey... Why am I lying here?" Ace asked as he sat up. He then looked around. "Hey... Did you drag me to this couch?" He asked in an annoyed tone. "Why did you drag me to this couch?" He asked.
~~~~~
And they landed, Derrick jumping off and walking over to Serenade. John was on top of the boat, staring blankly at the sky. "Hey... So, you know why we're here, right?" He asked his mother-in-law.
~~~~~
And Anna merely ate the toothpicks, too lost in her pica to notice anything. Eventually, she stepped out, groaning. 'Bleeeeeeeeeeh, I got splinters in my tongue...' She mumbled, looking around and seeing...
Nobody.

"No, I dragged you into this bed," Therese replied as she bit her lip, having just entered the room with some soup. "The otters helped me." She then placed it onto the table. "You must have hit your head or something in the shower. So yeah... uh... see ya."
~~~~~~
Taini followed right after him, her eyes directly to her mother who had wiped her forehead with the back of her hand. "Eh? Um, is it about Leo again?"
"Yes. We need to find him."
"Are you sure? This entire air has his stench. I don't think it's a good idea."
"We're... his parents. We need to take responsibility, Mom."
"Alright. He's on Death Island."
"Death... Island?"
"Yeah! I named it that! It's the island no one touches!"
~~~~~~~~
Except the white fox. Sitting next to the pond, the fox had its head lowered, beating himself up for not being able to do anything. He figured this would only last a day. Until then he would walk at her side. He didn't know what to do, after all. He was confused. To please her or not to please her? Wasn't he told to please her? But she would get really upset if he stopped her. Or worse. Destroy a town.

Anna blinked and looked around, eventually stepping outside the house. 'Hey, where'd everybody go?' She asked, blinking some more. She approached the pond, seeing the fox and approaching it, then stumbling with tiredness. 'Heeeeeeeey... Did you see where everyone went?' She asked the fox.
~~~~~
"... You know, I don't think that's an excuse, but... We're going to go and deal with things." Derrick said, getting on the rheiard and starting it back up. "Come on, let's get going. I want to finish this." He explained.
~~~~~
"... Yer leavin'?" Ace asked with a blink. "Fine, whatever." He said as the ship shook once more. "Just try not to get yerself hurt." he said as he stood and started walking back to the bathroom, not caring if he was nude or not.

"I... won't..." Therese replied before hurrying outside, flushing all the while. She figured she would take the day to just explore outside the cave.
~~~~~~~
"Heh, I would like to too." Taini hopped onto the rheiard as well, clenching onto Derrick's waist. Together they revved off and hung in the skies. It took a good three hours until they were near Death Island. Taini caught the whiff of her son, and she felt like vomiting soon after. Below them hung a whirling deep blue orb around the island. "Great... how ominous..." Taini groaned.
~~~~~~
The fox blinked, then tried to respond, realizing he could. Dammit, forgot I can't speak in human tongue! he thought before trying to act it out. Just by nuzzling her leg quietly, making small chirping noises. He had hoped she would catch on.

Anna blinked. 'Oh wait, you're a stupid animal, you can't talk or understand me...' She mumbled. She then picked up the fox for having the audacity to approach her. 'I'm gonna show you to him and then show him that I can take care of myself!' She said, not making any sense.
~~~~~
"... It doesn't matter. We'll finish this. End of story." Derrick said, flying down to land on some dry sand. "Sheesh... It's really warm here." He mumbled, scratching his head. "Well, you ready?" He asked.
~~~~~
And Ace continued to shower for a while, eventually getting out and towel drying himself. "What in the hell was yer problem, anyway, hussy?" He asked no one in particular, not seeing or hearing the woman anywhere near there.

She spent her day exploring the outdoors, seeing what there was to see. Which was not too much in this area. "Ugh, so boring..." Therese mumbled as she sat outside, with the flowers, deciding to take a nap in them.
~~~~~~~~
Taini wiped a hand onto her forehead, beginning to feel ill. She hid it rather well, though. "What the hell... no wonder..." she told her husband before nodding.
"Good, I'm ready too," came a dark voice.
"Leo, you're coming home! Right here, right now!"
"What? You think I'm going to take orders from a couple of weaklings?" Leo said as he emerged.
~~~~~~~~
I CAN UNDERSTAND YOU, ANNA! DAMMIT! WHY DID I DO THIS TO MYSELF? Wait... how the hell? What does picking me up have to do with you being able to take care of yourself? What, you think I'm going to give you rabies? Isn't it kinda silly that you're picking me up? Glenn thought with a foxy sigh as his head and tail drooped while being in her arms. He then began to squeak rather humanlike, hoping it would get her attention.

'Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuush!' Anna said, taking the fox inside and going to go get some food. She set him on the ground and started chopping up some chicken. Eventually, she set the chicken in a bowl and gave it to the fox. 'Yeah, I can totally be an awesome mommy!' She said, fist pumping.
~~~~~
"... Leo, you need to calm down!" Derrick said. "I thought you were done with all this nonsense! Why are you acting so immaturely now?" He asked sternly. "Why are you being such a selfish child!?" He asked angrily as he pulled out a knife and pointed it at his son.
~~~~~
"You know, it's dangerous to be laying around right now." Came a voice from behind her. As it turned out, the speaker was the man from before, the one in the colorful garb. "With the quakes from the repairs... You should head somewhere more stable... You could fall into the ship lying here."

"Uh... who are you again?" Therese asked as she sat up, wondering who the hell he was. She rather ignored his advice, deciding to just return to sleep. "I don't know how I would fall into the ship."
~~~~~~~~
"I'm not being immature. I'm doing what I want." Leo then pointed his hand at Derrick. "What am I selfish for? Do I give a damn about the both of you? Or anyone? Or this planet!? I don't want anything... or anyone!" he cried out before laughing, only to feel a bullet should tackle, throwing him a good five hundred feet across the water. Taini landed with a grimace. "You ass... I DIDN'T RAISE YOU TO BE LIKE THIS!"
~~~~~~~~
Hm... but I would be a pet... there's a differe-HEY! I'm not a pet at all! Glenn cried out before sighing. He then accepted the chicken rather heartily. "Do I look like a small puppy or something???"
In all honesty, yes, yes he does. He looked like exactly what he was: a runt.

'... Yeah! Yeah, eat it! I can totally do this! It'll show him!' Anna said, still smiling and bouncing around. She eventually picked up the fox once more then headed out the door. 'Alright, it's time to go find him and then show him I CAN raise a kid!' She said.
~~~~~
Derrick had stepped back, focusing his mana. Of course it would take a little bit for him to charge it up at this point without the bracelet. "You are a simply horrible person... Fine, we'll just give you some tough lo-" He stopped speaking suddenly, his chest having suddenly burst open, a hand sticking out of him with heart bits on it.
~~~~~
"You can call me Ace, and if you are wondering..." The man said. There was a sudden shake and a pit opened up right next to her. "Ah!" He said. "Yes, it would be something like that, if you are wondering.

"ACK! Okay, I get the point! But... you're Ace too? Is that a common name around here?" Therese asked as she jumped up and dusted herself off. She then sighed and rubbed her head. "This is not good. I'm so awful at these kind of things. I'm surprised I haven't died yet."
~~~~~~~~~
Taini's eyes widened as she felt a sharp pain throughout her chest. "Derrick... no... no... no, no, no, no..." Her eyes then noticed his killer. A demon. Why am I so stupid!? WHY DID I LET HIM COME WITH ME!? she seemed to scream in her mind before her wings burst brightly, only for them to seal. WHAT!? she thought as she felt the pain grow immensely. She tried to contain it, but it kept growing.
The bond!? she thought as she coughed up blood. It splattered all over the grass in front of her, right at Leo's feet. Leo grinned wickedly as he turned his head to his father. "Oh, Daddy's gone? Oh well... Does Mommy feel a little sick? Oh, is it that you love him so much that you're going with him? Aw, a pity. I hoped you'd love your children more! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Leo laughed before slamming his foot into Taini's stomach, kicking her away. I... I can't... It can't end like this!
Taini's vision began to blur as she looked up. The pain only grew stronger, and at the same time darkness was beginning to reach at her, gripping at her own heart. "You bastard... YOU SICK FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!" she cried out with more blood following from her mouth.
"Heh... you're nothing but a weakling in the end, Mommy Dearest..." Leo smirked as he aimed hand at her body. Taini widened her eyes, knowing that it was the end for her. "Derrick... I'm so sorry... I'm so happy that..." Taini grit her teeth, feeling her own life escape her just as she was blown back by the fierce blow.
our bond was worth it.
~~~~~~~~~
You're basically showing me me, Anna. Glenn sighed before he shifted his tail a little. He wanted to show her affection in a foxy way, but he could not in the least. I know you could raise a kid. I knew all along... I just assumed you to be scared... Silly Anna... You don't understand me sometimes, it seems.

'... Ugh...' Anna groaned after a while. 'Dammit, I can't find anyone... Maybe I should try and ask his grandma.' She sighed, summoning Volt, immediately making the hair of both of them stand on end. From about 10 feet away. In any case, they soon had zipped over to John and Serenade's house, where it had started raining.
~~~~~
"... Did I do good, master?" The demon asked, prancing over to Leo, her hand still covered in blood as her tail flicked about.
~~~~~
"... Not at all." Ace said. "But you should be careful nonetheless. It seems someone has damaged the ship. Honestly, such disregard for everyone here." He sighed. "In any case... May I ask what you are doing here?"

"You did very well..." Leo smiled as he glanced at his parents. "Heh, the island is so fitting, don't you think?" he asked the demon as he closed his eyes. "You know... killing them was quite fun, my pet." He sighed. "I think I want to kill my uncle next."
~~~~~~~~~
"What am I doing here anyway? I'm not even from this planet..." Therese whispered. "Why did I come here...? Why did Ace number two want me to even stick around? Does he? I mean... I don't know."
~~~~~~~~~
Serenade waved up at the two, sensing Glenn in Anna's arms.
"Great. Glenn's a fox. Hey! What's up Anna!"
Glenn began to chirp.
"Shut it. I'll hear your excuse later."

There was a thunderclap as the rain started to fall down harder on them. 'Huh? Hey, where did everyone go? I'm trying to find them so I can prove I'm responsible by raising this baby dog thingie.' she explained to Serenade while holding up the fox by the tail.
~~~~~
"Hm?" Ace blinked, sitting down. "Well, I do not know what your tumultuous thoughts come from, but if I may give some advice: Follow your heart." He explained. "As long as you do, there is no need for you to worry that you have made the wrong choice."
~~~~~
"... You mean the old fart?" The demon asked as she clung to Leo, nuzzling into his neck and nibbling at it. If they had been paying enough attention, they would have noticed a black cat skulking about.
