Second chapter up. Just for reference, I'd say Tai's age would be between four and six for all of these.

"Tai, sweetie, you have to hurry up. We're going to be late for your dentist appointment."
The young boy frowned as he tried to speed up tying his shoelaces, but some things just weren't meant to be rushed. He fumbled numerous times before his mother sighed and bent down to help him.
"Everyone at school says the dentist is scary, mom. Is that true?"
"Of course not," his mother assured him. She finished tying his shoelaces and stood up, grabbed his tiny hand in hers and headed out the door. "The dentist is a very nice person and he's going to help your teeth grow big and strong."
"But mom, aren't they just going to fall out anyways? Sora's already lost one of hers."
"Eventually they'll all fall out, dear, but until then we have to keep them nice and clean, alright?"
"Okay!" Tai agreed readily. He skipped on the sidewalk, chuckling as they continued their journey to the dentist. "Hey, mom?" Tai asked suddenly. "Which of my teeth do you think will fall out first?"
"I'm not sure, Tai. Which ones do you think will?"
Tai pondered for a bit and then replied, "My rabbit teeth. You know, the ones in the front."
He yanked open his mouth and pointed at his two front teeth, declaring indistinguishably, "See?"
His mother nodded and pushed him along, not wanting to be late and have to reschedule the appointment.
"And after those ones are gone," Tai continued, "my vampire teeth will fall out."
"Your vampire teeth, huh? Which ones are those?"
"These ones," Tai responded, pointing to his sharpened eyeteeth.
"Well, maybe we can ask the dentist and see what he thinks, Tai."
Tai frowned and said, "What does he know anyways? He's just a stupid dentist. I'll bet he doesn't even know which ones are my dinosaur teeth."
