[font="palatino Linotype"]Marion's eyes widened. If they widened any more, the muscles would freeze.

"Y-y-y-y-es, th-th-this is an orphanage..."

Siobhan shrugged, and stood up, pulling at the skirt--she was completely unused to it's length.
"Yes, lets. But before....may we check up on the children? Hopefully there are some that are old enough to take care of the others..."

She whispered this next part.
"And maybe I can find some people I remember..."[/font]

[Song_of_Storms]

Unico nodded at Siobhan. He got a tight grasp on the rope around Marion and pulled him to his feet. He pressed his nail in his back, forcing him to walk or get cut.

"Show us to the others. Give us the grand tour of your home, sparing no details. I'm quite intrigued that such an elegant building could survive so close to the city. The air is dense and impure... much like its inhabitants."

He marched Marion harshly out of the room, stepping lively over the mess they had made to get in. Unico ran his finger across his lips, his thoughts detained elsewhere.

"You will, of course, later direct me to your personal wardrobe." Unico rubbed the fabric from Marion's shirt between his fingers.

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Marion eeped, and walked faster.

"Th-they're this way!"
He walked down a flight of stairs, into the basement...which was actually quite grand.

Siobhan walked closely behind them, and looked at all the children...seeing no one she noticed, but spying quite a few older teens there, taking care of the youngers.

"No one..."

Marion looked over his shoulder at the trio.
"Well, are you happy?"

He looked at Unico especially.
"Why my clothes?"[/font]

[Wind]

Ashtyn looked around at all the children and saw that was the mirror image of Talison and said " Sis, look at this young lady..." She held out a half human half wolfish paw towards the girl and said " What's your name?" The Girl looked at her and said " Silana Rose Lee, Mam, that's my name and I am the eldest here I am 17... I take care of all the others... who are you guys?"

[Song_of_Storms]

Unico tapped Marion's chest.

"-because I said so. Surely you're willing to donate some of your own outfits as payment for the bother you caused?"

He mocked him, giving a false look of disappointment.

"Oh, you're not the kind to share? What a shame. I get jealous very easily, so perhaps shredding everything you own will make me just as happy."

He nodded his head over to Siobhan as he yawned.

"Is that all you needed, Siobhan? What else can we get him to do.."

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan nodded at Silana.
"Do you not remember me? It's Auntie."

She the turned back to Unico and Marion, and walked up to them.

"Uni, hold him still."

Marion flinched at the venom in her voice.
"What are you...?"

In one quick movement, she kneed him hard in the gut, leaving him crying and spitting up minute traces of blood.
"There. We can leave now. I leave these children in your hands, Silana. Take good care of them, as I know you will."

Marion whimpered.
"Yes...t-take some of my clothes, I don't mind!!"[/font]

[Nami]

Kisho had become extremely silent, this was not unusual for him, because that was his state all the time.. before this whole incident had occurred. Kisho watched Marion and shook his head, "You are a pathetic waste." he said calmly, his voice taking on the normal emotionless tone he used.

"Let's get out of here.. I'm feelin' sick." Kisho walked down the steps, and toward the front door, his eyes were back to their usual calm and cold look. He seemed to be very much his old self, except for maybe he was exhausted. "Being so nice has made me tired." Kisho muttered while yawning.

"I need a nap..." mumbling he opened the front door and waited for Sio and Unico.

[Wind]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan nodded at Silana.
"Do you not remember me? It's Auntie."

She the turned back to Unico and Marion, and walked up to them.

"Uni, hold him still."

Marion flinched at the venom in her voice.
"What are you...?"

In one quick movement, she kneed him hard in the gut, leaving him crying and spitting up minute traces of blood.
"There. We can leave now. I leave these children in your hands, Silana. Take good care of them, as I know you will."

Marion whimpered.
"Yes...t-take some of my clothes, I don't mind!!"[/font]

Silana looked at Sio and said " I was wondering if we could go with you at least a few of us most of us have been adopted but there's three of us who are quote un-adoptable at least by Mr. Burnois's standards... we were wondering even though one of us isn't Anichi we were wondering if we could come to the orphanage with you Auntie...?"

[Song_of_Storms]

"Siobhan. Violence." Unico was surprised at her actions, if not a little embarrsed. Perhaps Marion deserved this treatment, but Unico didn't believe they should be the ones to bestow it.

Unico patted Marion on the shoulder coldly.

"On second thought, I rebuke my request. The idea of wearing anything that has touched your skin seems rather repulsive."

He lifted Marion's chin up to look into his eyes. Unico's were, of course, in their usual uninterested position.

"If you ever need anything, you know where to find me." He let his hand drop, pushing his long hair behind his ears.

He looked over at Silana and Siobhan, curious as to what they where talking about. Unico sighed, gave Marion a final wave before following Kisho out. As he proceeded down the steps, (making sure he did it with the utmost care and grace) yawning, he stretching his arms high in the air. Covering his mouth with his hand, he gave Kisho a tired smile.

"Well, I'm famished. What say we go home and I cook?"

Unico stressed the word I. He scrunched his nose, reliving past meals the others had made. He had a strong dislike for anything that could be prepared in under five minutes.

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino linotype"]Siobhan sighed and closed her eyes.

"Sil-chan..."
She sighed again.
"I will allow it, but the others might have something against it."

She looked at the now empty room.
"Follow me."
Nodding at the three orphans, she walked down the stairs rather quickly and out the front door, making sure that the new additions were right behind her.
She undid her high-heels, leaving only stocking-clad feet against the bare ground.
Siobhan could feel the looks coming from Unico and Kisho, even though she didn't see them, and walked towards the forest.[/font]

[Song_of_Storms]

"Wait a moment Siobhan, you're being followed."

Came the reply from Unico. His arms where crossed over his chest as he made his way towards her.

"Care to fill me in?" He sighed, knowing that for the rest of the day he would be explaining to the head Monk.

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]"I know I am. Let me explain to the Father, okay? You just go about your own business, as usual."

She turned her gaze back to him, eyes narrowed drastically.
"These are some considered 'unadoptable' by Marion. Two are Anichi, one's human."

She looked back in front of her, and continued walking.[/font]

[Wind]

ashtyn had fallen behind the others and she stumbled. She realized her wound was bleeding again and sighed. She stumbled again and cried out in pain, She went and blacked out and Silana looked back and said to Sio " Auntie your friend is falling behind..."

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan ran back over to Ashtyn and sighed.

"I thought we took care of this.."
She picked Ashtyn up again, and jogged back to the beginning of the line, leading the other children again.
She didn't turn her head to them, but she did talk to them.
"So, what are your names, little ones?"[/font]

[Wind]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan ran back over to Ashtyn and sighed.

"I thought we took care of this.."
She picked Ashtyn up again, and jogged back to the beginning of the line, leading the other children again.
She didn't turn her head to them, but she did talk to them.
"So, what are your names, little ones?"[/font]

there was one who was two years old who Silana was carrying " This is Silvanis and her older sister Rain..." Rain smiled and said nothing and Silana said gesturing to the scar on Rain's neck " She can't speak since the age of eight because of torture..."

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan's eyes narrowed in memory, and she addressed Rain.

"I know about that all too much...."
She turned her head to the girls behind her and smiled.
"I hope to be able to take care of you well!"

She nodded, and looked back in front of her, readjusting Ashtyn in her arms.[/font]

[Wind]

Silvanis looked at her shyly and said " I had a question...Do you need help with your friend??" Rain smiled not speaking words but speaking with her eyes, She said Please let me help I am a big girl.

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan smiled sadly.
"This isn't my friend. She's much more than that. She's my little sister."

Siobhan hugged Ashtyn closer.
"And I'm sorry, but I'll carry her burden alone, for she is my burden to bear..."[/font]

[Wind]

Silvanis stubbornly grabbed Ashtyn's arm and said " No one should bear any burden alone especially not family and we won't take no for an answer and you can't make us..."Rain looked at Sio and a tear rolled down her cheek and her eyes said please let me help all I wanna do is be there for you

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan sighed, and nodded her head, letting Silvanis take Ashtyn's unconscious form.

"...Thank you..."

She ran her fingers over the scar left by her dagger, and sighed, never stopping her pace back to the orphanage.[/font]

[Wind]

" You are welcome and we could still use your help..."She handed Sio her leg and grabbed ashtyn around the waist

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan blushed out of embarrassment, and took Ashtyn's leg.

"Ahh...sorry..."[/font]

[Wind]

Silvanis smiled and said ' It's okay..."

[Nami]

OOC: Their back home right..?

IC: Kisho shrugs and trots up the steps, "Nap time.." mutters on his way down to his bedroom, pauses for a moment and goes to the roof, spotting Jericho. "Ah.. yo, what'cha doin' up here kid?" Kisho walked over to Jericho and sat next to him.

[Kung_Fu_Master]

"I see you some how lived." jericho said with a kind of anger vioce but he didn't even look at Kisho even once.

"If you don't mind, I'd rather be alone right now." with anger still in his vioce.

[Nami]

Kisho blinked and cocked his head, "It's probably not my place to ask this, but since we live in the same house and all... I am curious as to why you are upset...is it something I've done?" Kisho watched him from a sidelong view, not budging from his spot next to Jericho.


OOC: Greetings, I will be gone over the weekend! I may get on Sunday night, but it's doubtful... Anyway, enjoy your weekend!

[Wind]

Talison looked at her older sister Silana and said " Hi who are you... Auntie who is this??" She looked at Sio and said " Mama, who is she??" Silvanis and Rain looked at Talison and Rain smiled, hugging Talison she tugged her arm and Talison realized that she couldn't talk and said " Mama, thank you for bringing me some wonerful new friends..."

[Hana Ryuuzaki]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan's expression softened.
"Talison, this is Silana, Silvanis, and Rain. Rain is the oldest of the sisters, Silvanis is the baby, and Silana is a girl that I've known for quite a while..."

She then turned her gaze to the other girls.
"And this is Talison, my 'daughter'..."[/font]

[Kung_Fu_Master]

Kisho blinked and cocked his head, "It's probably not my place to ask this, but since we live in the same house and all... I am curious as to why you are upset...is it something I've done?" Kisho watched him from a sidelong view, not budging from his spot next to Jericho.

"No, it's not your fault. I just really want to be alone right now so leave and please, don't tell anyone I'm up here." still not looking at him.

Jericho was only paying attention to talison having fun with the new people that just arrived, paying Kisho no thought if he left or stayed."This has been one long day", he thought to himself.

[Wind]

[font="palatino Linotype"]Siobhan's expression softened.
"Talison, this is Silana, Silvanis, and Rain. Rain is the oldest of the sisters, Silvanis is the baby, and Silana is a girl that I've known for quite a while..."

She then turned her gaze to the other girls.
"And this is Talison, my 'daughter'..."[/font]

Talison said" mama why does she look like me??"Talison changed into her fox form suddenly and looked at Sio saying " Mama is she here to take me away from you??"Rain smiled and looked at Talison reassuringly and said nothing because she couldn't but Silvanis said " We're aren't here to take you away... Siobhan-chan is a wonderful mother we have asked her to be our mama too... isn't that right Sio-chan?"
