Yazoo sat with his brother's and Rain, the three of them listening to the young girl go on about how great her new room was and how she loved the small music box that Vincent had given her that sat on the nightstand by her bed in front of her night light. Leonard had excused himself from the orphanage to hand out papers to parents that he was aware of them not having children or just infants.

"Where did daddy go? He never lets us stay alone by ourselves like this." Rain stopped eating her cereal and looked the three teens that occupied the table alongside her.

Loz looked at her and answered, "He had to take care of some things he'll be back soon, plus he still didn't leave you and the other children alone, we are in charge of you so you still aren't able to run away or demolish the house."

Rain looked at him then at Kadaj and said, "You three scared my daddy away didn't you that's not cool."

Yazoo was the one to speak this time he explained, "Rain, Father will be back he just wanted to get some fresh air, he said the two of you will have fun if you are a good girl tomorrow he said he had something for you, it's not nice to question your elders."

"You guys aren't my elders you are just my brothers." Rain pouted crossing her arms looking at the gang of brothers.

Kadaj looked at her and joked, "The way you're pouting you look like you ate a really sour grape, is your orange juice to sour, I have made it before and have gotten that same look from the lemons being too much for the person to handle."

Rain pounded her foot on the floor and Loz stated, "She's pretending to be angry careful Kadaj, you soiled her juice she might step on your foot."

Yazoo looked at Rain and said, " Don't cry Rain."

Loz looked at Yazoo so did Rain who burst into laughter, " I wasn't crying and I'm still not but I'm telling daddy on you meanies you three made me miss my breakfast."

Kadaj looked at her and stated, "You didn't miss breakfast, you ate three bagels, two waffles and you have a little bit of cereal left, I really don't think that you will get too hungry today."

Loz laughed as Yazoo pointed out, "Kadaj she's a growing girl, of course, she will eat the entire house down, but that's why people build grocery stores, for small children to grow more though I thought that only applied to boys but I stand corrected."

Rain sighed and looked at Yazoo, "You're taking their side, I thought we were on teams, daddy is going to be mad at you."

Yazoo looked at her and watched as she stood up getting her dishes to take them to the sink then leave to do her playing for the day. Rain got to the door to see Leonard he asked, "Where are we heading to, it's still thirty minutes before you can roam the city, what's the rush?"

Loz laughed as Yazoo looked at him when the larger brother finished laughing he looked at Leonard and stated, "She's been a meanie since we woke her up earlier."

Rain looked at Loz and stuck her hands out in defense, "Nu-uh, they talked all through breakfast, my bagel, and waffles and cereal weren't enjoyable, I couldn't concentrate to eat they laughed all the time."

Leonard looked at the brother's and then at Rain, "Rain, what is different with having breakfast with the three of them and having it with me, you wanted them to be family didn't you? Don't forget they are your brothers so you need to do better in welcoming them they aren't animals you like for a week and then toss out the next, which is something I wish you would stop doing, you've brought countless cats home with you only to not want it when you get tired of it in a week's time."

Kadaj looked at Leonard then Loz said, "You meanie giving cats hopes of finding a companion only to be thrown down that's not cool."

Rain looked at Leonard who had not stopped looking at her he said, "I'm not throwing these boys out, they have seen a lifetime of being abandoned and it won't happen with us, cats I'm okay with since I'm allergic to them, but you wanted a family and you have that, try not to be spoiled you are blessed with more than these children that sat with you every day, don't take it for granted you may not have it later on enjoy these times because life changes at the blink of an eye, remember Midgar, I hope this is the first and last time for this lecture, you are dismissed to get fresh clothes it's windy outside so you will need warmer clothes to wear, winter is setting in this will probably be the last this year that you will be able to go play outdoors, why not go have fun with the other children, most of them won't be here when night comes."

Rain looked at her father and knew what he meant that the other children absence he had talked to her about getting them to parents who wanted them and in exchange he would adopt the three teenagers. Rain smiled running to the other children sitting down among them. Yazoo looked at him and asked, "You got homes for most of these children? How many still need homes?"

Leonard looked at him and stated, "I have kept two reserved for myself so all the children you see here won't be here tonight, they will have parents I have been given the time the parents will show up due to getting ready for the child so we need to keep them in the house until the parents come to pick them up."

Kadaj asked, "Which two did you keep other than Rain?"

"The brother and sister you brought last night, the people wanted them, but they didn't want to adopt them both so I finally put their pictures in my pocket, as much as I would like to give them a home I want the parent to adopt them both sister and brother shouldn't be separated three children and three teenagers are probably an easy assignment since the three of you are already grown, three small children is easy compared to the whole lot you three gathered while I was sleeping," Leonard stated. A loud array of little screams filled the room and soon plastic forks and spoons flew through the room. Leonard smiled and sat down in the empty chair listening to the children celebrate.
