Suddenly there was loud crying of a baby and they both turned their gazes away from each other to see AZ walking quickly out into the balcony with Sebastian in his arms. They separated quickly and D.G saw to her surprise the tin man blush slightly and pull his hat down further on his head if that was indeed even possible. If AZ noticed the uncomfortable air around the two she didn't mention it instead she smiled at them and looked at D.G. "um D.G I was wondering if you could maybe watch him for an hour or two I haven't had a good nights sleep in weeks and well he seems to calm down when he's in your arms." AZ told her and D.G smiled. "Sure thing sis." She took the baby gladly in her arms and smiled down at him. "Were going to do so much together when you get older little guy I can teach him to play base ball." She said happily. "Base ball? What's that?" Cain asked as they walked back in side "well I think it's better to show you then explain it but I'll do my best." D.G didn't get to bed until way past midnight she staid up watching Sebastian for over three hours and when Raw and Glitch slowly drifted to sleep on the couch the only one who staid up with her was Cain. But the man seemed mesmerized with base ball so she figured she would do her best to explain it to him and make it sound as magical as possible.
They were deep in to a conversation about players that she looked up to when AZ came rushing in with her robe on looking very displeased. "Why didn't you wake me up sooner I'm so sorry." She stated grabbing the sleeping form of Sebastian softly "no problem sis he slept for most of the time, anyway don't worry about it." "Dear you are to kind truly D.G well go get some sleep you have a busy day ahead of you tomorrow you need all the sleep you can get." D.G nodded and lay down on the couch making her self very comfortable. "What in the o.z are you doing?" AZ asked as she put her hands behind her head looking very relaxed. "Getting some sleep." "You know there is a room for you princess your old room why don't you go in there?" Cain suggested. "No way I'm going to be with you guys on a long epic journey I don't mind sleeping in the same room with you all in fact I would rather do that." "I don't think that's very appropriate." Cain told her an AZ was trying hard not to smile at how uncomfortable the tin man looked and D.G didn't even seem to notice. "oh please Cain if you don't feel comfortable with it you can sleep in my room but I want to sleep next to my friends and I don't really care what other people think." AZ giggled "oh D.G you really are to much at times I'll see you in the morning good night you two." AZ shook her head as she walked out cradling Sebastian and D.G closed her eyes. They were in the large sitting room so there were plenty of chairs and two giant couches but no beds or anything. She heard Cain sit down on a chair next to the couch she was on and she opened up one eye. "See not a big deal although if you want you can have the couch." She made to get up and he shot her an angry look "don't you dare get up from the couch I'm fine on the chair D.G now go to sleep." He told her in an exasperated voice she could be to much at times she had the bounding energy of a six year old it was maddening.
"okie dokie Cain good night and thanks for bringing me back I missed this." She stated softly her breath becoming more shallower "I missed this to kid." Cain whispered and putting his feet on the ottoman and pulling his hat over his eyes he fell to sleep. D.G would have like to sleep a lot longer, she also would have liked to have a blanket over her although she did have something warm covering her up and it smelled mysteriously like the tin man. But what she wanted more than anything right now was that damn baby to stop crying. She opened her eyes groggily and looked around the sun was barely rising. "you got to be kidding me." She mumbled Cain looked to be awake and laughed at her expression. "that's what happens princess long days and nights when you have a baby." "you would think he would want to sleep just a little longer for Christ sake well mise well get up now no way I can go back to sleep with the crying." She noticed that Glitch and Raw were still asleep "how in the hell can they sleep through this." D.G asked standing up and grabbing Cain's coat "who knows maybe they were really tired or their just really heavy sleepers." Cain suggested standing up as well D.G handed his coat back to him "thanks Cain you didn't have to let me use your jacket you were probably cold to." She stated sadly and thought to her self although if you slept next to me we both would have been warm she shook her head to jar the thoughts out of her brain she just hoped to god she wasn't blushing.
"would you stop worrying about me D.G I'm fine." Cain stated rolling his eyes and he kicked Glitch's shoe rather hard. D.G snickered as Glitch sat up suddenly "what's the big idea some of us are trying to sleep tin head.' Glitch stated angrily "time to get up now head case no arguments." "ya some of us are used to getting a full eight hours of sleep around here not five or six." Glitch added. Raw with the two of them fighting woke up quickly after Glitch and sat up "Raw ready to go ready to get started." "boy you said it Raw so am I let's get some food and get the hell out of dodge.' D.G told them and they looked at her as if she was nuts "oh forget it you have no idea what I'm saying do you?" They all shook their heads in unison "damn no one gets my witty sense of humor here." "well I'm sure you were quite amusing on the other side doll but I think your going to have to try a little harder over here now me I know plenty of jokes." Raw and Cain both groaned loudly as they walked through the darkly lit hall way. Breakfast was speedy and as much as D.G wanted to stay and continue to reconnect with her family she knew it was time to go. They walked out to the stables and saw Tudor waiting there. D.G's eyes went wide in surprise as she bound up to him hugging him quickly "your coming to Toto?" She asked in surprise. Tudor rolled his eyes "it's Tudor princess how many times do I have to tell you that and yes I am coming you'll need my help and you need to get reacquainted with your magic." D.G groaned "great more lessons." 'oh I think you'll like these lessons they'll be much more hands on trust me." Tudor stated with a smile.
Cain and Raw brought out four horses and D.G gave Tudor an amused look "yes I will be traveling in my animal form for most of the time." He answered for her and D.G grinned "ok what ever you say Toto." She looked at her parents and her sister with her husband her Dad and sister looked amused her mother looked displeased "don't disrespect Tudor D.G he has done much for his family." The Queen scolded "jese I was just messing around he knows I was joking right Tudor?" D.G gave him a sad expression and he nodded a slight grin escaping his lips "this girl is going to be the death of me." He stated very seriously "hey join the club pooch I think that goes for all of us." Cain added with a grin D.G put her hands on her hips and pouted "hey you guys were the ones who wanted to come along remember I can't be held responsible for my unique personality and behavior." "more like insane personality and behavior doll." Glitch added "I thought you were on my side." D.G asked in awe "I was, I am wait have we met before." Raw slapped a fury hand to the back of his head and Glitch blinked twice "what were we just talking about?" He asked and D.G sighed "forget it well looks like this is it don't worry about us will be fine." She assured her very worried looking family. "we know dear just don't do anything rash." Ahomo told his youngest daughter in a stern voice as he hugged her.
"and listen to the others my darling always listen to them they know this place you still don't if they tell you to do something do it." The Queen added hugging her and kissing her on the cheek. D.G rolled her eyes looks like she was going to get a lecture from everyone "and don't touch anything or run off some where just because it looks cool." AZ added mimicking the "cool" word a bit. "hey I didn't know you understood my lingo right on sis." D.G said hugging her tightly and she went to hug Dorian "and have some fun will ya D.G." He stated grinning handsomely at her as he hugged her tightly "see way to pick em AZ I like this guy he's the only one who trusts my ability to stay out of trouble." Dorian took a step back and put his hands up in protest "whoa I never said that but you can't be serious all the time if you need anything don't hesitate to contact us." He told her gravely and then winked playfully at her. "Don't encourage her darling." AZ stated laughing though D.G turned to look at her companions "I better not hear one word from any of you on what to do I think I've had enough of that to last a life time."
The others grinned and Cain walked behind her and before she knew what was happening he hoisted her in the saddle she almost fell off as she didn't expect it. He laughed at her shocked look "don't worry princess no more orders right now but I'm sure you'll find a way to get us into trouble before long." He stated smugly getting on his own horse. "this is really to much.' D.G began and Dorian handed the dog form of Tudor to her. "just come home safe all of you." The Queen began as they all were on horses now "hey safety is my middle name!" D.G stated cockily and the group began to their journey.
