"I know..." Irvine said, looking to the sky as he unsealed his wings. "However... I would like to try... Just for a little bit at least." He told his wife. "Wouldn't you... Even like the thought?" He asked.

~~~~~

"I suppose I am as ready as I will ever be." Derrick said, smiling back and hugging the woman. "Hey, hey, though, just... If she is with someone else... Just try to take a mental note... Don't rush in and get yourself hurt, okay?" He asked with a small smile.

"No. I don't like the thought at all. Please, can we just give it up? I'm sure we can provide it a better home anyway. We live in a dinky apartment and I'm still working on issues I already have... and you forget I'm some... metallic freak now..." She sighed.

~~~~~

"Ehehehe... I really didn't expect that to happen. Well, I should have, but I was too caught up in the fact that they're okay. But hey, it could possibly mean our kid can have playmates! Along with Irvine's and Ai's kid. Maybe. Ehh... I'll think on that one later." Taini mentioned before returning the hug tightly, enjoying the warmth. She then was led outside onto the rheiard, and soon they were off, with Taini announcing her guess as to the whereabouts of her grandmother. "...Well, if I remember, grandma was born around Grand Chokmah. A little bit off in a small tiny village."

"A little village, huh?" Derrick asked. "Well, I suppose there's no harm in checking around." He said. "Well, I guess that means we should head that way, doesn't it?" He asked, giving the woman a slice of pizza that he had warmed for her.

~~~~~

"Well..." Irvine said, crossing his arms. "One, you're not a freak, and two... Well..." He shook his head. "For this one, you should come with me... It may cheer you up a bit to hear or see something that would be considered good news in your book."

"Mmhmm!" Taini replied as she nuzzled against his cheek in an affectionate way to thank him. "Thank you!" She said before nibbling on the pizza, only able to handle one slice. "Aren't you happy I haven't eaten mountains and mountains of food?" She grinned as they flew amongst the clouds. "...Please tell me you can speak French." She suddenly changed the subject.

~~~~~

"...Good news...?" Ai gazed at him as she sat back onto the examination bed, now speaking in Mizuhoan so as to not completely lose her culture. "What could possibly be good news? My life has been turned around from heaven to hell." She mumbled, with her fingers crossed in such a way as to display her agony.

Irvine smiled and landed in front of a very familiar looking house. "I've been having my doppelgangers build it for the past several weeks." He told her. The reason why it looked familiar, was because, on the outside, at least, it was a perfect replica of their home back in Mizuho. "I know we've been hating the apartment, so... I built this. What do you think?" He asked.

~~~~~

"... A little from back in school... Why?" Derrick asked, blinking as they approached Grand Chokmah. "I know it's the primary language in GC, but almost everyone speaks English or a combination, so... Unless it doesn't happen at all in this village?" He asked with a groan.

"...It doesn't happen at all in the village. Irvine was the one who could speak French fluently. I could only speak German, English, and Mizuhoan." Taini pointed out as she sighed. "I am going to feel incredibly stupid now." They soon landed, with the woman hopping off. "I only know bits and pieces, so let's hope that they only know those bits and pieces. Guess, I should go into bloodhound mode. Seems like my nose can reach up to about a mile for the radius."

~~~~~

"Huh...? Wow... but why all the way near Baticul?" Ai asked as she took in everything. She then opened the door and awed at everything. "It's different but... in a way, better than the old home... Irvy..." She then began to cry softly again. "You didn't have to do this..."

"I hated the grungy old place too, don't forget that." Irvine said. "In any case, it's here because... Well, you liked it so much during our honeymoon that I just... Thought we needed to be here. So, I bought a cheap plot of land, cleaned it up, and built a house like the old one... All for you." He said, smiling at her. "I guess you like it then." He said with a smile.

~~~~~

"Well, let's just hope you pick up on something, huh?" Derrick asked. It wasn't long before they wandered in front of a giant house, which looked like it may have been beautiful at one point, but now looked like pure crap. "Wow... Wonder who lives there?" He asked, seeing a sign. "Oh, it's a hotel." He said, blinking. "The Elizabethan... Hm?"

"...Thank you... This actually makes me feel a little better. Thank you so much." Ai wrapped her arms around his neck before kissing him, then pulled away. "I love this so much! So we are going to move in today?"

~~~~~

"Inn?" Taini blinked as she walked inside, feeling apprehensive. "Hm... Ice cream. Definitely coming from here. HELLO!?" She called as she cupped her hands to her mouth. She then turned her head to see a woman, in her mid-twenties, screaming loudly into her phone.

"FUCK YOU! WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW YOU BITCH!?" Taini heard, causing her tail to stiffen. She doesn't seem very nice...

"Oh Yulia..." Derrick sighed. "Taini... You don't smell her mana coming from her, do you?" He asked softly, not wanting the woman to hear him. 'What a lunatic... Does she have any idea about how bad it is to be screaming and shouting in public like that?' He thought to himself.

"I..." Taini sniffed the air as she heard a loud string of curses. "MOTHERFUCKINGBITCH GO FUCK OFF AND DON'T EVER SPEAK TO ME ABOUT THAT FUCKER ALEJANDRO!"

"...It's definitely her. Fuck my life..." She groaned. "I hope she has been taking care of the k-"

"Why hello there." The woman said sweetly toward them both. She had dark brunette hair with blue eyes and a typical summer dress, though the pudge was definitely apparent. "Do you plan on staying here for the evening?"

"Uh..."

~~~~~

"Actually, my doppelgangers already moved everything in while we were visiting the doctor." Irvine said, returning the hug and kissing the young woman's forehead. "So all we have to do is to walk right in and rest our weary legs."

"Walk right in huh? I suppose you are right." Ai replied suddenly feeling depressed once she glanced down at her belly. She felt terribly stupid for not thinking that she was pregnant. It was painfully obvious, after all. So she walked and and sat on the couch, feeling exhaustion wave over her.

Irvine sat down next to the woman, sighing and hugging her, then turned on the TV where a movie was running. "This is nice, isn't it?" He asked. The interior of the house was much more modern than the exterior. He would have done the same with the old house, but he didn't want to bring shame on Ai back then. Now there weren't any customs holding them back. "So... This is what I always wanted to do in here."

~~~~~

"Um... Sure, we will..." Derrick said, and so, the two were led to a room. As Derrick peeked out the door to look around for a second, he saw the woman enter the next door room, and then proceed to start yelling. "Dammit..." He whispered, going back in their room. "What the hell is that woman's... Ugh... Anyway... I wanted to take a look around in here." He said softly.

Taini groaned as she was thankful she didn't have Irvine's ears. "What did you want to look around in here Dearest?" The woman asked as she sat down on the bed. She thanked Yulia that at least the interior of the room was decent, with nice fluffy pillows, but all in all, it just seemed so... old for her.

Softly rubbing her tummy, she locked eyes with Derrick's, wondering what he was up to.

~~~~~

"This is? Really?" Ai asked as she placed her head on his lap while watching the movie. "This seems kind of cool! But hey, this looks like a cool movie! It's a parody zombie flick called Shaun of the Dead. Those zombies look like the ones out there though..." Ai blinked as she remained curled up.

No, the ones out there... The ones outside look... less like they're going to kill us and more like they're... Um... Staring at the sun until their eyes burn out." Irvine spoke, rubbing her arm until his hand absently moved to her belleh and started rubbing that again, about half an hour later.

~~~~~

"... Well... I was hoping we could scope out what's going on for a couple of days... You know, just... I'm sure she's just having a bad day or something... I think that she's probably not that bad... Your grandma will be fine... I just need to find out... And if it turns out I'm wrong... Then we need a way to save her, right?"

Taini placed a hand to her chin. "Hmmm... you're right Derrick. So if we believe that she's a psychopathic bitch... then do we stay around here until she gives birth? I mean, what could we do anyway? I'd love to snatch her away, but I couldn't breastfeed the child anyway." She sighed.

~~~~~

Ai felt his hand against her belly, forcing her to feel even calmer. "I think you raise a good point. Do you think those zombies will ever go away? They really do scare me..." She mentioned as she clung to his hand on her belly.

"I am sure that they will go away some day." Irvine said. "But for now... At least they don't often bother quiet hilltops like this." He pointed out, as their home was over a hilltop yet again. "So... We can take some comfort in the fact that we don't see them often."

~~~~~

"Well... If we do find out she's a terrible person... We'll find the proper authorities and report her so that your mother can't be messed up by her." Derrick said. "And... Uh... You could breast feed." He pointed out. "You should be having the kid around the same time... A little before her, even."

"Right, wasn't thinking." Taini sighed. "So... will they confine her and wait until she is born? Oh never mind, I don't understand completely, but I'll go along with it. But now we are at an inn. What to do..." Taini replied before using her ultra famous kitteh grin. :3

Mew.

The next couple of days rolled around. Taini was practically deaf from hearing the screaming and the sobbing. Basically she was one of the few people in Taini's life that Taini actually wanted to kill. So instead, she just drowned her out with frequent cold baths. She could have sworn that the woman smacked a guest. "Dammit... Even the kitchen is hellish. So fucking disgusting. Complimentary breakfast? No thanks." She sighed as she glanced up at the ceiling from the bath, letting the bubbles bury her. "I can't believe it. My grandmother is in a LUNATIC'S body. What's going to happen? ...I hope she is placed in an orphanage. I mean, I have seen the fucking woman smoke, and I'm shit scared. I don't know how to confront her. I have to talk to her. She's going to kill my grandmother."

~~~~~

"Yeah, it is nothing to worry about." Ai replied with a small smile. The next couple of days went by for them as well. Ai realized that she couldn't get out of this one, and decided to look for orphanages. "Maybe after a couple months I'll get rid of it..." She spoke to herself as she folded her arms. "But we should really find out the gender. We haven't really done an ultrasound. Just tests."

"Heh... You know, for a moment there, it kind of sounded like you had some genuine care for some parts of the kid." Irvine laughed, poking just a little fun at her. "But... I don't really want to know... You know, Derrick and Taini never checked their child's gender... I'm not that worried about it myself... Are you?" He asked, ruffling the woman's hair.

~~~~~

"Maybe... We can try and steal her smokes and her ID?" Derrick suggested, since this woman wasn't that old, and certainly didn't look it. Hell, aside from the facial hair, she looked and acted like an overweight, spoiled rotten teenager. "Yulia... She's yelling again..." He groaned. "She has people in the room next door... Does she even care?" He asked, shaking his head.

"You're not worried? Well, since we are going to give it away, it doesn't really matter. Right? It doesn't matter?" Ai asked as she flushed at the action. Quickly she retaliated with a ruffle of her own. "But do we have any plans for the day Irvy? Besides seek out potential orphanages? I mean, I should be more careful anyway..."

~~~~~

"...No, of course not. Can we just kill her and get it over with?" Taini pleaded. "I can hide the evidence! Please!?" She begged before sighing. "Never mind..."

"WHERE THE FUCK IS MY ID!?" She shrieked before knocking on their door.

Taini opened it, basically, wanting to shoot her in the face with a powerful blast of light. "Yes?" She mumbled groggily.

"Did you steal my ID?"

"No... are you seriously accusing us of stealing?"

"What's all this about?" Derrick asked, groaning. "Look, miss Fannie, we didn't know you had an ID, but if you would like, we are detectives... We can try and find it for you." He said. "That is... If you are interested in working with us." He told her, trying to be shrewd. As long as she was paying the detectives, it was unlikely she would go out and get a new ID.

~~~~~

"... Well, we could always go down to Werites and go watch a couple of the fights." Irvine suggested, pleasantly surprised at his wife's words. 'Just a couple of weeks ago, she was saying how she wanted to abort, now she's considering keeping the kid for a few months and she wants to know the gender... I wonder if it's just that the shock's worn off?'

"Yes, I'll pay you anything! Just please find it for me!" The woman cried out as Taini sighed. "You're putting me on an expedition to find an ID. I thought I wasn't allowed to snoop when preggy. You said it was bad for me." She mentioned to her husband as she glanced at Miss Fannie. "Whatever. I'm going... I'm going." She sighed as she made her way down the stairs. Bet you anything she just misplaced the damn thing. Scatterbrained fucktard.

~~~~~

"I would like to see the fights. It's been a good while since we have, haven't we? Hehe, so you think that all the attention you received before finally died for good?" Ai asked as she grabbed a jacket. She also seemed to be smiling a little.

Yes.

Smiling.

A little.

"Don't know... Maybe." Irvine said, shrugging. "But what about yours? We're both former champs, after all... When we were both assumed dead a few months back, it was all over worldwide papers." He pointed out. "Even higher than the village..." He sighed, remembering that their disappearance was front page, and the village's fall was below it.

~~~~~

"... Well, I had a plan anyway." Derrick whispered as they searched the building high and low, until they found it, under a paper about late taxes. Derrick sighed, pocketing the card once he was sure that Fannie was not anywhere near. "Taini, are you around?" He asked, blinking.
