"How do you know their names?"
The man inquired, with a little hint of aggression in his voice
English
-
"Because they're both my friends. And your reaction confirmed we're talking about the same people. I should be able to take you to Cassie now, but Alex...he'll take more time to find.." he replied. He said the last part rather sadly, with a hint of anger towards someone else.
-
"What happened? Where is Alexander?"
-
"A lot of things happened. I don't know where he is and I don't suggest trying to find him yourself. A friend of his is working on that and...well, she's a violent one who doesn't like it when people hurt her friends." He paused for a second. "You do know of their changes in...appearance, correct?"
-
"No? What do you mean?" The woman asked, rather anxiously
-
He sighed. "It'll be easier if I just show you.." he said, taking out a few polaroids out of his pocket. There were three pictures. One of him and Alex by a campfire, another of Beta reading a book on her bed, smiling up at the camera, and the last one was of Alex and Cassandra standing next to each other outside of Ry's ship.
-
They both stared in shock "Alex....." Said the woman, sobbing, as she embraced the man "We...we knew they'd been taken away...."
-
"They're still themselves. You people honestly need to stop being so racist. Now, if you would like to see your daughter before something else tragic happens to her, I suggest you follow me. Please, try to be nice, she's been through a lot."
-
They hardened "Those monsters.....they're why we lost them in the first place!" The man tried to calm the woman down "Idris, please, they were only trying to free themselves"
-
He sighed. "You didn't answer my question."
-
"Yes, we'll go visit her....how is she?" The woman asked
-
"She's doing quite well, actually. I think her seeing you might cheer her up a little more. Unfortunately, we'll have to walk back up those stairs."
-
She nodded, and both of them followed you. The man removed his helmet, and the woman took off her hood The man was chiseled and stern-looking, while the woman had a kinder, softer look about her. They both had blond-ish hair, and the man had blue eyes, the woman had lavender eyes
-
He gave them a brief smile, trying to be friendly as he led them to the ship. -timeskip to the ramp- He knocked on the door. "Cassie? Ry? Leone? Anybody home?"
-
Nada answered "Hi Quincy!" Idris tilted her head "What an adorable little thing!"
-
"Hello Nada, its nice to see you again. Is Cassie home?"
-
She nodded, and Beta's voice was audible "Come in!" Both of them started, and entered the ship, moving closer
-
Quincy walked in ahead of them. "Cassie? I have some people who'd like to see you." he said.
-
She looked up, her swollen belly making it hard for her to get up "Oh?" "C-cassandra? Is that really you?" her eyes widened "Mom? D-Dad? Oh my god!"
-
"Easy Cassie! Remember who you're carrying in there. I'll help you up." he says, aiding her in getting off the couch.
-
Daniel was a little incensed "Cassandra.....you're 15, and you're pregnant?" "Dad, please, I can explain"
-
Q leaned against the wall as they talked. Just then, at the worst possible moment, Nyxon walked in his pajamas and a toothbrush in his mouth. Nyx: "Ish thish a bad time?"
-
They had just stopped scolding her "And who are you?" "Mom, Dad, meet my Fiancee Nyxon....meet my parents, Daniel, and Idris D'Angelo"
-
He waved awkwardly. "H-hello." Quincy snickered. Both his and Vorim's parents were dead so they could avoid this scenario.
-
They both greeted Nyxon, then feeling like it might get worse, Idris convinced Daniel to return later, and they both wished them all good bye and left
-
Quincy stepped out onto the ramp. "Do you need somewhere to stay or do you have that arrangement all figured out?" he calls, trying to be polite.
