NOTE: The names I use for baby Wolfram is Wolfie and for baby Yuuri is Yuu. When I begin calling them their original names again, that means they are back to normal, in which will not happen in this chapter, I assure you :P Oh, and but Yuuri will call Wolfram "Wolfram" and Wolfram will call Yuuri "Yuuri", as usual. (And the rest, will call Yuu, Yuu-chan.)
- - - - - - - - - - - - Continued. Ch 3.

Yuu stared into space as he sat next to Wolfie on Cheri-sama's lap. Outwardly, Cheri-sama was so adored by the appearances of her son and the Maoh. She felt like a mother all over again (she is one though, lol) and so she picked them up from the bed they sat on and put them on her lap. (Oh but before that, she put the baby clothes that Anissina gave her for them to wear... where'd she get that from?!) She cooed weird sounds to Wolfie, who was laughing awkwardly... for he would not do such a thing when he was in his original form, and to Yuu... he was just out of it. In his mind, different thoughts and weird images came up as he thought hard of what happened.

T-this! This is not acceptable! I knew it! I KNEW IT! OF COURSE! Why hadn't I just trusted myself when I said that it'd go wrong?! He remembered Wolfram's puppy eyes. He drooled in remembrance. Ah, so it's that... (shock, gasp) Oh no no no no... not that again..! The next time I see it, I'm NEVER EVER going to agree to ANYTHING that puppy ... fa-fa-... Yuu was too obsessed with his imagination that his drool went farther down and his eyes were sparkling of twinkling stars.

Wolfie, who had stopped playing with his still-beset-of-the-cute-little-baby-Wolfie mother, stared at Yuu with eyes that said "... what's he doing?" and he felt his face turn bright pink of embarrassment.. of something. Then aloud, still with a flushed face, he said, "Yuuri, what are you doing?!"

Yuu snapped out of it at Wolfie's voice. He frowned at him. "W-what do you mean what am I doing?"

Wolfie's reply was, "Hah! You don't even know what you were doing yourself? What a wimp!"

"Hennachoko yu na!"

Wolfie folded his short arms. "Hmph. Well I'll tell you what you were doing. You were drooling at something gross!" He got mad. "What was it, Yuuri!? What was it that you were thinking of?!"

Yuu backed up, as if scared of the chibi Wolfie in front of him, and stammered, "I-I can't tell you!"

Wolfie's anger rose, but his pink face got redder at every point his anger level got up to. He was ready to whack Yuu. "What?! You won't tell me?! I'm your f-i-a-n-c-é and you won't even tell me WHAT YOU WERE THINKING OF?! What kind of guy are you?!"

As Wolfie whacked Yuu while yelling at him, Conrad and the others stared at them fight. It seemed like blabbing nonsense. They couldn't understand a single thing the two were talking about. It was just baby talk. And what was happening in front of them was just a baby's fight. Yup.

Anissina thought of an idea and went out of the room to begin planning. Probably another invention!

"What're they fighting about?" asked Greta.

Conrad shrugged. "I don't know..."

Gwendal was not interested, and with a "Hmph. What babies they are." he left the room. The three maids followed him, leaving Cheri-sama with Yuu and Wolfie, and Conrad with Greta and Günter.

"Heeiikkkaa!" cried Günter, as he sobbed silently to himself. Who knows why he was crying... probably because of the difference between his fantasies and reality.

Cheri-sama said, "Ohhh... aren't they just so adorable! It's just like when Wolfie was a baby! But this time, there's two!" Cheri-sama snuggled her face against the two babies' hair and patted their heads lightly, as the fight between them still lasted.

Conrad sighed. "Mother, I think you'll get hit if you keep doing --..." But Cheri-sama got hit in the face by Wolfie before Conrad could finish his sentence. Wolfie looked up at his mother and stared guiltily at the frozen face of Cheri-sama. Yuu was also staring, scared of the consequences. Everything was quiet. A few seconds passed... and then a minute...

"KYAAA! That was soo cute, Wolfie!" Cheri-sama squealed. "Hit me again, will you?"

Wolfie frowned and folded his arms. He was reflecting upon himself as well as embarrassed.

Oh what a mother... thought Yuu, as he sighed.

Conrad laughed lightly to himself and then Greta asked him, "Ne can I hold Yuuri?"

"Hm?" he was a bit surprised at the question. "Well, I guess so... Do you mind, Mother?"

"Nope. Not at all! Here you go!" Cheri-sama lifted Yuu from her lap and handed him to Greta. Yuu felt like a hot potato being passed on. Greta held her baby "father" carefully and said to him, "Hello Yuuri!"

Yuu noticed that others couldn't understand what the two were saying and so he gave a little wave to his daughter. Greta giggled. "Seems like he understands us, though," she said. Conrad smiled and nodded. Cheri-sama picked up Wolfie and lifted him up into the air, up and down, up and down he went.

"Yuuri Yuu-- ah! Ne" she said to Conrad and Cheri-sama, "How about we call Yuuri, Yuu-chan, while he's still a baby?"

Günter, who was apparently left out of it, thought to himself, Yuu... -chan? Nosebleed. He ran out of the room yelling, "Heika! I'm sorry! (sob sob)"

All watched as the silver-haired man left and slammed the door behind him. Then they went back to what they were doing.

"So, Yuu-chan, give me a thumbs-up if you approve of us calling you that," said Greta to Yuu.

Yuu thought about it. Hm... He folded his arms. That may be okay... I guess. Shori, ah, I mean Onii-chan called me Yuu-chan when I was little. Mother, he sighed, I mean Mama called me that too. So I suppose it's alright. He looked at Greta and gave a small-thumbed thumbs up at her.

Greta smiled and exclaimed, "Yay! Yuu-chan said it's okay!"

Yuu sighed. You've been calling me that before I approved it anyway...Suddenly, Yuu felt a slight pain in his stomach. What was wrong with him? He began to cry. Cheri-sama got up from her seat, in surprise.

Greta's smile had vanished at the time Yuu's eyes began to fill with tears. With a worried face, she asked Yuu, "What's wrong, Yuu-chan?"

"Wah ah ah wah ah ah," cried Yuu, as he uselessly wiped his tears away.

Conrad was in thought but Cheri-sama was once again obsessed with the cuteness of the baby Yuu. She kyaa-ed as she spun around in circles, lifting Wolfie up and down while spinning. Wolfie felt sick but fell asleep from the light spin. It felt comfortable somehow, but nauseating.

"Ah," said Conrad, finally having agreed with with his thought. "I think he's hungry."

Conrad was actually right. The pain Yuu felt was of emptiness. He was hungry. And he wanted it now. He cried harder as he nodded that to his nazukeoya that he was right. Yuu cried and cried even though Greta ran while carrying him to the kitchen, with Cheri-sama, and Conrad who was carrying the now-sleeping Wolfie (Cheri-sama couldn't carry Wolfie while running, or else she'd wake him up. Conrad could run while not even making a sound or a movement of any muscle, though Yuu's cries were loud...) Down the halls they ran, and down the halls the echoes of Yuu's cries went.

The King's loud baby cries could be heard outside the castle.

In the stables, Dakaskos heard the crying and looked up at the castle, wondering, Whose baby is that?

Gisela saw Dakaskos staring at the "crying castle" and wondered too, Did someone have a baby? But, I should have known...

Not bothering to think any farther, she took in a deep breath and breathing out... in her Sergeant mode, she yelled, "DAKASKOS! GET BACK TO WORK!"

Dakaskos was surprised and as usual, he stood straight up and saluting, answering, "YES, SIR!" And so he did get back to his work, giving the horses their hay and brushing their manes, as quickly as he can. Ao neighed in happiness when it was his(?) turn. Gisela was about to leave and Dakaskos was his normal self, slowing down as he heard Gisela walk away. He sighed as he slowly brushed Ao. "I really wonder whose baby it was that was crying..."

Ao neighed. He knew something was different today. The baby was probably the reason. As Gisela did, he didn't bother to have any further thoughts and enjoyed the fresh stack of fodder that was all for him.

Yuu's cries continued to ring through the castle and suddenly stopped...

A/N: At the part where it says "when it was his(?) turn" for Ao, I didn't know if Ao was male or female, but whatever, so I put him as a male horse. Bear with it. And so, keep waiting for the next chapter! I'm hoping to have at least 10 chapters! Oh yah, I think I'm rushing things... do you think so?-TB
