Ohana To Me
A/N Here's more!
I'm working on a fic about Ace's son Nikko who's wild and has a high badness level like Stitch when he first came to Earth but it will come once this fic is done and I know Kitten630 is looking forward to it from our little chat.
It was morning as Jumba's eyes opened as the morning sun hurt them groaning in pain from his battle wounds and the cold.
"Ohh....... entire body...... hurts.
Blame Alu for all this!" he thought as he gritted his teeth trying not to cry.
He then couldn't resist the pain any longer and cried a little but heard the door close as Pleakley came in very quietly. He had never seen his room mate cry before except when they were watching monster movies which the evil genius thought beauitful.
"Jumba...... you're crying.
Is..... something wrong.
It's okay to cry, you know.
It's a very soothing emotion.
I-I was worried for you after Lilo told us what happened to you guys on the forbidden island." he said as Jumba looked confused but was touched that his room mate and best friend cared about him.
"Everything...... hurts!
Jumba has never felt this much pain before.
Feels like truck hit Jumba." he said gritting his teeth in pain.
Pleakley saw his room mate's body had been covered in bandages from what had happened with Alu but had a feeling he was still hurt.
"Maybe Jumba will come around and tell how he feels about his sister and how it made him like this, afraid to trust or open up." the Plorgian thought seeing Jumba wince in pain as he went back to sleep.
Pleakley then left the room and closed the door softly as not to disturb him.
Gantu was sitting outside on the porch thinking while most of the young experiments were in the back yard playing because he could hear them but was thinking about Roxy and was deciding something in his mind. He'd hidden from Roxy that she was adopted ever since he found her but after what had happened on the forbidden island with Alu, he felt that at last she should know.
But he was worried about how she'd take the news.
"You okay buddy?
What're ya doing out here alone?
Kia and Aoi were looking for you." Reuben said eating a sandwich.
"I..... just needed to be alone to think...." he answered his friend.
"About Roxy?" Reuben asked him.
Gantu nodded in reply.
"Yes you know we adopted her right after the last time Alu was captured long ago?" HE SAID.
"iH gANTU.
What's...... that got to do....... ohh you're going to tell her that she's adopted, right?
Are you sure?
Roxy assumes you're her birth father.
This is going to crush her spirit." Reuben replied.
Gantu nodded at that.
"I know.
I need to still decide what to do." Gantu answered sighing.
Reuben then saw him leave and knew where he was going........
Gantu sighed as he entered his ship.
He'd spent many days with Roxy here ever since she'd became a part of his and Reuben's life, making them feel like ohana as tears welled up inside. He didn't want to hurt her or see her sad but he knew he had to tell her sooner or later about the truth about how she became part of his life but hoped she'd understand.
He remembered how strong she'd been fighting Alu and hoped that strength still was in her.
"I know what I must do." he murmured sadly leaving the ship.....
Roxy walked into the kitchen in the late afternoon in her pyjamas and yawned but some of the young experiments were confused by this but Nani explained that Roxy had been asleep all day and had only woken up but she saw a worried expression on Reuben's face.
"Have you seen Gantu?" he asked her.
"Naga Uncle.
I guess he's at the ship." she said drinking a coffee.
He had a feeling that Gantu would tell her but he was nervous as he saw Gantu come into the house.
"Roxy...... can I talk to you?" he said softly to her as she nodded.
"Sure Dad." she answered following him.
Lilo wondered why Reuben was sad but he wouldn't tell but later they saw Roxy run upstairs to her room upset and slammed the door.
But they saw Gantu was more upset as Reuben sighed.
"I'd better talk to her." he thought going upstairs......
