"Pachira, please come out!" Yuma begged, knocking on the door.

"Yes, you've been in there for almost two days! You MUST come out!" Aiko added.

"No! Go away!" Pachira snapped, her voice breaking so they knew she had been crying.

Puggsy had rounded up the others the other day and told them about Pachira's episode, and they quickly tracked her down not only to see what was wrong but to also make sure she didn't run into any trouble. Liru and Fangface managed to pick up her scent and trace her back to the hotel, where she locked herself in the bathroom and refused to come out. That was, however, yesterday and the vampire princess STILL refused to come out.

"C'mon, Pachira! I gotta use the bathroom!" Liru whined, crossing her legs. "I can't hold it in forever!"

"You can use our bathroom, Liru," Biff suggested.

Liru paused. She hadn't thought of THAT. Quickly, she ran out of the girls' room and into the boys', leaving behind a trail of smoke clouds as she dashed into their bathroom.

Great, now Liru is getting a hot guy's attention! Pachira thought, overhearing Biff, and tears began to run down her cheeks. In just one day, every hansom available guy she had met ended up either non-available or not a virgin. Maybe I'm wrong… Maybe I overreacted and they have no interest in my friends whatsoever! But that thought was just a tiny wish inside her head… and deep down, she KNEW her friends deserved a hansom man they could call their own…

Biff was smart, so she knew he was perfect for Aiko.

Both Fangface and Fangs were sweet and strong, so they were perfect for Liru (hopefully they could cook good meals for her, too, she thought). Plus, he was a werewolf, and she knew Liru had been searching all over for a male werewolf… one that wasn't Lupe.

Cheshire, she heard, was realistic, so he was perfect for Yuma.

Elliot seemed kind to Keimi, and she could sense something had sparked between the ghost and the invisible girl.

Jack didn't seem to have a love-interest in anyone. Possibly just a flirt, who was actually in love with sailing the sea.

Skoon seemed nice. He wasn't really the most hansom guy around, but he seemed to have more decency than his friends… and the way Kim was walking down the alley, the vampire figured she didn't mind his appearance at all.

Then there was that other kid… what was his name again? Oh, yes. Puggsy.

Pachira froze. Uh-uh, NO WAY. she thought, shaking her head. He is definitely NOT my type! She didn't really think of him that much… All she knew about him was that he had an attitude, a temper, and- though better-looking than Skoon- didn't really rank in the "top 5" of her hottest-guys list. No other guy she had met (except Drake) could EVER be worse than Puggsy…

…Then again, no other guy would have stood up to those jerks who made fun of her flat-chest. Okay, Biff and Fangface probably would have, but she wouldn't really know since they weren't with her. And, thinking about how he had given Kim CPR to revive her, she figured he did care about his friends… and was possibly a good kisser-

Stop that! she snapped at herself. You can do SO much better than him! …You just have to keep looking. She wiped away her tears and stood up, smoothing out her shirt and combing her hair, and touching up her make-up, cleaning up some mascara that had run as she sobbed. She couldn't see her reflection, being a vampire and all, but she knew from years of experience how to fix it without using a mirror. Finally, she took in a deep breath, and walked out of the bathroom.

"Hey, look who finally decided to join the living," Kim said. She was sitting on her bed, reading a magazine, possibly waiting for Pachira to come out. She put away the magazine, and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Pachira with concern. "What was the matter?"

Pachira sighed. "Oh… it's nothing," she replied, pulling on her long-sleeved coat and hat that shielded her from the sunlight.

"'Nothing' doesn't make a girl lock herself in the bathroom for a whole afternoon, night, and morning. Now, tell me what's wrong,"

Pachira's shoulders sagged, and she faced Kim with an irritated glare. "I have trouble scoring. There, I said it!" she began to trudge out, but Kim caught up with her and grabbed her by the shoulder.

"Score? What are you talking about?"

"Pfft. Like you don't know…"

"Um… I don't."

Pachira side, pinching the bridge of her nose and shaking her head. "I'm talking about those hansom guys we met! None of them are interested in me, and you and all the other girls have a chance with them! THAT'S what I'm talking about!"

Kim only arched an eyebrow. "Um… I'm not really into any of the guys we've met."

Pachira stared at her, confused. "W-What? But… what about you and Skoon? I saw you two walking down the alley, arm-in-arm!"

"Me and Skoon?" Kim let out a small giggle. "No… He was feeling down about his appearance, and I just cheered him up, that's all. There's nothing going on between us. We're just friends."

"Oh… But, what about Biff and Puggsy? Surely you must be dating one of them!" Please let it be Puggsy… Please let it be Puggsy… Puh-LEEZE let it be Puggsy!

Once again, Kim laughed. "I'm not dating any of them! We're just friends, all of us. …Was that what you and Yuma were talking about the other day, when we were at the beach?"

Pachira blushed, but nodded. "Eh heh, yes…"

"Well… you're not the first one. A lot of people who see the four of us together always assume I'm dating one of them- namely they think its Biff. But, like I said, there's nothing going on between us. We're just friends, that's all."

"Ah… Well, I feel stupid."

Kim giggled, patting her on the back. "Don't. Now, how about we meet up with the others? They're sitting on the upstairs patio."

"Okay." Pachira then began to follow Kim, having her self-confidence return at last.

- 3 - 3 - 3 -

The former-slaves joined the princesses and meddlers on the patio that morning. They had left after giving up on Pachira, deciding that the vampire possibly needed some 'alone time' to calm down, while Kim offered to stay behind to wait up for her. They were up early enough to catch the morning sunrise…

…and at the sight of it, Fangface and Fangpuss immediately changed back into Fangs and Baby Fangs. "Hey, what's going on? What happened?" Fangs asked, rubbing his head. "How did I get up here on this patio? I thought we were having breakfast in that outdoor café downstairs!"

"Ah, shut up and sit down, pin-head," Puggsy snapped, forcing Fangs to sit down.

"Your cousin seems a bit clueless," Shang said to Baby Fangs as they sat under the table- Baby Fangs by Fangs' feet and Shang by Liru's feet. Tan and Jun were also with them, allowing the infants to pat them on their heads.

"Nah… he just hasn't figured out he's a werewolf, yet." Baby Fangs replied.

Shang nodded in understanding. "Liru seems to like him a lot… are they in love?"

"I wouldn't doubt it. Fangs' jaw pretty much dropped at the sight of Liru, and she seemed pretty happy when she saw Fangface. I think they really like each other, a lot."

"Mm." Shang looked down sadly, rolling a stray pebble under her finger. "My big brother isn't going to like that…"

"Is he that big, mean werewolf who tried to hurt my friends? Really tall, black fur, ugly mug and all that?"

Shang nodded. "I wouldn't doubt it. He really wants Liru badly, so he can marry her, become the Werewolf King of the Netherworld, and send our parents into exile."

"That's awful! Can't you tell your parents?"

"No, otherwise they'd kill us. I tried once when I learned to speak English, but…" she looked down sadly, and rolled up her pant-leg to show a large, black bruise. "Lupe caught me. He said that if I ever tried to again, he'd do more than permanently injure me…" A single tear appeared in her eye.

"Usa," Jun said, using her ear to wipe away the tear.

"Wait, you know how to speak English?" Baby Fangs asked.

"No. I KNEW how to speak English… until Lupe made Parker cast a spell on me, making it to where I'd never learn to speak, no matter how old I got. …Do you know how old I am?"

"Um… I don't know… two?"

Shang sighed, shaking her head. "No. I'm actually four. …People think that I either have a rapid growth spurt, or a… men-tall dis-a-bil-it-ee."

Baby Fangs cocked his head to the side. "What are those?"

Shang shrugged. "I don't know. All I know is that Parker said that the only way to break the spell is to have another werewolf kiss me."

"Sounds like something out of a fairytale book."

"I know. Lame. But, Lupe doesn't want to take any chances on me talking again, so he made me his slave- dressing me in rags, never letting me take many baths, making me work all the time- anything so I won't seem at-trac-tive."

"Well… he's not around now, so you can break the spell. Maybe after the princesses help your friends, you can tell your parents!"

Shang nodded. "That's the first on my 'To-Do' list once I start speaking again."

"Usa!" Tan exclaimed, nodding in agreement.

"Usa, usa!" Jun agreed.

"Hey, you wanna chase the bunnies around?" Shang asked.

"Sure!" Baby Fangs exclaimed.

"Usa!" Tan and Jun both gasped, and began hopping away as Shang and Baby Fangs went after them, giggling.

"Seems like Shang finally found a little playmate," Jack said, chuckling as he watched the two toddlers chase after the bunnies.

"Yeah… one who plays nicer than Lupe, too," Elliot agreed.

"Buddy, after meeting that creep-wolf, an undead zombie is a better playmate than Lupe!" Puggsy scoffed.

"Hey, watch it! My aunt's fiancée is a zombie!" Cheshire snapped, then grinned and everyone laughed.

Fangs laughed too, but it sounded forced, and he had a firm grip on Liru's hand. She noticed how nervous he looked, figuring it was because he was surrounded by different creatures. What a chicken. she thought, but decided to help him calm down before he got the idea to 'escape' over the railing. "Hey, Fangs, wanna come with me back to my room?" she asked, giving him a sweet smile. "I think I left something there,"

"Okay!" Fangs said hastily, pretty much breaking into a dash while holding Liru's hand, relieved to get away from the other Netherworld creatures.

"(cough) Wuss. (cough)" Elliot 'coughed', obviously figuring out why Fangs took up Liru's offer.

"I think I'll go downstairs and bring us up some coffee. Care to join me, Yuma?" Cheshire asked.

"Heh heh, sure." Yuma said, blushing.

"Mind if I join, too?" Keimi asked.

"I'll come too," Elliot said, and the four of them stepped off the patio.

"I t'ink I'll take Shang downstairs to dat playroom we passed earlier," Jack said, scooping the four-year-old up in his arms.

"I'll come, too," Skoon said, though only Jack and Shang could understand him.

"Can Baby Fangs come, too?" Shang babbled.

"Usa!" Tan exclaimed, for he and Jun wanted to join too.

"Sure," Jack said, then turned to Puggsy. "Ya don't t'ink Fangs would mind, do ya?"

Puggsy thought about it. The playroom was one floor down, just down the hall from their bedrooms. Plus, Jack seemed trustworthy, and if anything were to go wrong Baby Fangs could always change into Fangpuss… But, he didn't want to take any chances. "No, but I'll go with you, to help superiormise these two," he said, then picked up Baby Fangs and followed Jack and Skoon out.

That left Biff and Aiko on the patio alone, watching the sunrise. The teenage boy remembered his promise to Aiko… problem was, he didn't quite know how to fulfill it. "Never make promises you can't keep" they always say, he knew, but for some reason, after seeing the sadness in her eyes and practically hearing the sound of her heart breaking, he just HAD to make that promise! How he would do it, he didn't know… but he was going to try and figure something out. For the sake of Aiko.

Aiko stood next to him, keeping her arm around his and letting out a small, happy sigh. He's going to help me become a real human! she thought… but then began to ponder the idea. But how? He's smart, but he doesn't seem like the kind of boy who would know how to turn an android into a real person. It would take a miracle! She turned her gaze upward at him, just in time for him to look down at her and smile. She smiled back, lying her head on his shoulder. Then again, he himself is a miracle.

They heard footsteps, and saw Kim and Pachira arrive. "Pachira-chan! You came out!" Aiko exclaimed, running toward Pachira and giving her a gentle hug, which she returned.

"Yeah. Kimmy-chan helped me get my confidence back," she said, breaking out of the hug then looked around. "Hey, were are the others?"

"Cheshire, Yuma, Keimi and Elliot went to get us coffee, Jack and Puggsy took Baby Fangs and Shang to the play-room…" Biff began to explain.

"And Liru took Fangs to her room-" Aiko began.

"WHAT?" Pachira gasped, then immediately fled down the hallway. There is NO WAY I'm letting her get to second-base with some guy she just met… especially before me! she thought.

Kim sighed, shaking her head. "Not again…" she groaned, then took off after Pachira.

"…to… grab… something." Aiko finished, a bit confused.

"C'mon, we'd better catch up to her," Biff said, taking Aiko by the hand and they ran to catch Pachira before she did something embarrassing.

Stefan was disguised as a mechanic, pretending to repair a broken elevator… watching as Biff and Aiko ran by with Kim and Skoon… and they were both holding hands! He bent the wrench in his hands in anger.

- 3 - 3 - 3 -

The second Liru unlocked the door, Fangs scrambled in and shut it, leaning against it and heaving deep breaths.

*Knock! Knock!*

"Who is it?" Fangs asked.

"Open the door!" Liru called.

Fangs gasped and opened the door… seeing that he had slammed it in her face! "Ooh, ooh! I'm SO SORRY, Liru!"

"Don't worry, Fangs. You didn't break my face TOO badly," Liru walked in. "What is your deal? Do you ALWAYS freak out when you're around other creatures?"

"Um, YES. They FREAK me OUT." Fangs unleashed a shudder.

Liru huffed, and sat down on her bed. "I suppose I freak you out as well, since I'm a werewolf,"

"What? No! I-I mean, well… Yeah, I'm afraid of werewolves, b-but you're not like other werewolves! You're… pretty. And nice."

"Well, what about the others? They're not like those monsters you see in movies! They're nice, too!"

"I-I know they are, it's just…" he sighed and sat down on the bed next to her. "I just can't help feeling terrified. It's a sudden instinct I've developed while traveling with my friends, whenever we ran into some creepy bad guy."

"Well, can't you just swallow your fear and face them like-" she was about to bring up Fangface, but caught herself, remembering Fangs had no clue he was a werewolf. "- like a hero?"

Fangs scoffed. "Sorry, but I'm not much of a hero. Actually, I'm the one who'd most likely call out for a hero! I'm a coward like that,"

"I can tell," Liru gasped, covering her mouth. Crap, that was supposed to be in my head, not out loud! she thought. "Sorry!"

Fangs shrugged. "Eh, at least you don't criticize me for it like Puggsy does." he then sighed and began shaking his head. "But… it's just kind of creepy whenever we face weird creatures- er, not that you and your friends are weird! You guys are nothing close to weird!- I just get really nervous and the first thing that comes to mind is hide or run away. It's even more hard to handle when I have these crazy dreams that I'm fighting them,"

"Dreams?"

"Yeah. I always black out, sometimes right when I see the moon, and I have these dreams that I'm really brave and fighting bad guys! …Then I wake up, and see that I AM fighting bad guys, until I chicken out."

"Wait, you black out when you see the moon? Then have dreams about being brave? (gasp!) Fangs, I hate to tell you this, but there's only one logical explanation why that happens…"

"W-What?"

"You are obviously have…"

"A split-personality?"

"…Syncope!"

"Huh?"

"Yeah, syncope. I once watched a movie about a girl who always blacked out whenever she saw the color red, and was diagnosed with a form of syncope. The same thing must happen to you, too, only when you look at the moon!"

"Oh… Well, that makes sense! What a relief… I thought you were gonna say I was part wolf!"

"Nah… I doubt being part wolf would cause you to black out,"

Ladies and gentlemen, I can clearly say that at this point Liru has only half a brain, and Fangs has met someone with his level of intelligence. Anyway…

Fangs leaned over and hugged Liru. "Thanks for the talk, Liru… it really distracted me from my fears."

Liru paused, then smiled, her eyes glittering in joy, and she hugged him back. I'm hugging a boy… I'm actually HUGGING a BOY! she thought, happily.

Just then the door flew open and Pachira walked in. "A-HA! I KNEW something was going on!" she shouted.

"What are they doing, Pachira?" Biff asked.

"They're… They're… Sitting on the bed, talking to each other!" Pachira paused, realizing that that was ALL they were doing. "Um… and… not much… else." She blushed, rubbing the back of her neck and giving an innocent smile, then backed away from the doorframe and took off.

"Well, that was… weird." Liru said.

They didn't notice that Lupe was disguised as a janitor, and after hearing Pachira's statement, he wasn't in a good mood. He clenched his fists so tight that the broom he held snapped in half!

- 3 - 3 - 3 -

Jack, Skoon, and Puggsy sat in the playroom, watching as Baby Fangs and Shang tossed a ball back-and-forth, with Tan and Jun in the middle of them, jumping up to catch the ball. A little game of 'monkey-in-the-middle'. "So… how do ya t'ink Pachira is doing?" Jack asked.

"Probably not good, considering her crazified outburst yesterday." Puggsy replied, then rubbed his foot. "Man, my feet STILL ache after running after her all over town!"

Skoon chuckled. "You have a crush on her, don't you?" he asked.

"Aye, dat would explain why ye would be willin' tah run all over town tah keep up with her," Jack agreed, grinning slyly.

"What?" Puggsy asked.

"Oh, nothing. Skoon an' I jus' t'ink dat deh reason ye'd follow Pachira everywhere she went was because ye liked her…" he bounced his eyebrows.

"Are you NUTS? I barely know her! The only reason why I ran myself ragged was to make sure she didn't run into those royal ignorpotomases!"

"Ye care…" Jack translated.

"What? The only reason I'd care is because I don't want her causing trouble and getting us all murdified!"

"Ye t'ink about her safety…"

"Stop that! I only want to help her AND her friends out, so me and MY friends can continue our trip, without having to worry about a bunch of netherworld nitwits!"

"Willing tah help her out…"

"Ah, shut up! What about you? I'll bet you're CONSTANTLY thinking about girls!"

Jack shrugged. "Only one girl in particular," he then pointed at Shang. "Dat little beauty right there. Her big brother treats her like crap an' abuses her on a regular basis, and I can't help feelin' dat she deserves better treatment. Right now, she's deh only little lady I care about, want tah help, an' keep safe. Sure, I could also take t'is chance o' freedom an' hook up wit' a few girls, but I'm more focused on takin' care o' Shang first."

They watched as Jun finally caught the ball, and she and Tan began rolling it away, making Baby Fangs and Shang chase after them. Jack had to laugh at the scene, then turned back to Puggsy.

"So… do ye like Pachira? An' don't lie, 'cause Skoon can sense a liar like a dog can sense a cat,"

As if to prove his point, Skoon leaned over and gave Puggsy a sharp gaze, arching an eyebrow as he did. "It's true… Just try me!" he said.

Puggsy sneered, then crossed his arms and stood up. "I'm going to go see if Cheshire and Yuma got that coffee, yet." he replied, then headed to the door.

"Ask her out, mate!" Jack coached, jokingly. "She jus' might like ya, too!"

He looked back and glared. "Just watch the kids… and you'd better make sure nothing happens to Baby Fangs!" he then left.

…Seeing that, not too far down the hall, Pachira stood in front of him, looking out the window. Weird, he was just talking about her, and all of a sudden, there she was. He shook his head, continuing to walk, showing no interest in her…

…But, after a second glance and seeing how the sunlight made her face glow, he couldn't help but pause and stare. Ask her out! Jack's words repeated in his head.

He shook his head once more. No. Way. There is NO WAY I'm asking out a girl, let alone a vampire princess! he thought. I don't care how beautiful she may look, she's not in my league! He looked again. Besides, I doubt she'd ever go for a guy like me- probably is more into hansom princes than a human kid…

You never know… A voice said inside his head.

Puggsy shook his head again and tried to ignore it, but suddenly found himself grabbing a rose out of a flower vase and walking up to Pachira. I'm going to look like an idiot doing this! He just stood there with the rose behind his back, a few feet behind her, silent. …Might as well just say something and get it over with.

"Um… hey Pachira," he said, making the vampire princess gasp in surprise.

"Oh, Puggsy… It's just you." Pachira said, letting out a sigh of relief. "What do you want? Is something wrong?"

"N-No, I… Well, I was just wondering, um…" Just ask her and get it over with, moron! he told himself, but it turns out asking a girl out was tougher than it seemed. "You see, I was just talking to Jack and… uh, what I mean is… I… um… h-how are you feeling?"

Pachira rubbed the back of her neck, awkwardly. "Um, fine… How about you?"

"Me? Um, good! Really… good."

They stood there in an awkward silence. Puggsy cleared his throat, trying to find something else to say that could smoothly lead to his question, but Pachira spoke first. "I think I'll go back up on the patio, now…" she turned and began walking away.

"Wait!" Puggsy, by reflex, reached out and grabbed her hand. She turned and looked at him, shocked, and he quickly let it go. "I-I wanted to ask you something,"

"…Yes?"

Just ask her already! Puggsy told himself. Taking in a deep breath, he looked away from her, and held out the rose. Pachira's eyes widened, and she felt a small blush appearing on her cheeks.

"Will you… go out with me?" Puggsy asked, muttering the question and blushing a bit. I can't believe I'm doing this.

Pachira didn't know what to say. "Um…"

Another awkward silence, and Puggsy began to feel embarrassed and started to lower the rose… until Pachira took it from his hand. He turned his gaze slightly towards her, seeing her look at the rose, blushing a bit… but there was a slight glimmer in her eyes.

"Sure, I'd love to," The answer came before Pachira could even think about it.

Puggsy looked at her, surprised. "Whoa. Um… really?" he asked.

She shrugged. "Yeah. …Maybe… we could go to that 4th of July celebration tonight?"

"Uh, sounds good. Um… maybe meet around 8?"

"Okay."

They stood there for another awkward moment. "Okay/Well then/… See ya!" They said together, then quickly walked down the hallway in different directions.

Puggsy could practically hear Jack's voice: "See, dat wasn't so bad now, was it?" He scoffed and kept walking. Wasn't THAT easy. he thought in reply.

Pachira looked at the rose in her hand, slightly smiling- then paused, realizing something. She had JUST agreed to go on a DATE with PUGGSY. WHAT THE HECK WAS I THINKING? she thought, a shocked-chibi look appearing on her face. She looked back at Puggsy, then at the rose…

…Yet, for some strange reason, she didn't really seem to mind. Taking in a few deep breaths, she continued to walk, a small smile appearing on her lips. "A boy actually asked me out…" she said, and sighed, letting a small heart appear over her head.

Drake was disguised as a gardener, watching as Puggsy held out a rose to Pachira, who accepted it. He snapped the hedge clippers furiously, holding them up to his eyes so they lined up with Puggsy's throat, and he pretended to cut off the teen's head.

- 3 - 3 - 3 -

The four princes met up minutes later. "Those dumb slaves of ours betrayed us!" Stefan snapped. "Now those princesses are dating those meddling boys!"

"That short, ugly teen gave Pachira a rose!" Drake griped. "A SINGLE rose! I'd give her a dozen roses if I wanted to!"

"I'm so ANGRY right now!" Lupe snarled, and on 'angry' he punched the wall, making a hole. "That little bitch is falling for some weakling!"

"Guys, calm down! You're making a scene!" Parker hissed. "Besides, I doubt it's anything serious. I mean, they're PRINCESSES. They'll realize they deserve better and dump those foolish mortals, so there's absolutely NOTHING to-"

"Turn around," Drake said bluntly, pointing behind Parker.

The warlock prince turned around… seeing Yuma walking hand-in-hand with Cheshire, while Elliot and Keimi carried a tray of coffee cups, but his sight was more focused on Yuma and Cheshire, and his jaw dropped. He then and faced the others. "Okay, no more Mr. Nice Guy! We're getting our princesses back, NOW!"

"What about Dr. K-Ko?" Stefan asked.

"Screw her! She can have the princesses AFTER we're done with them!"

*BZZZZT!*

A shock ran through their bodies while a heavy vibration went through Stefan's, and they collapsed. "I heard that!" Dr. K-Ko's voice snapped through the tiny speakers in the tracking anklets. "I'll handle the meddlers, remember?. Stick to the mission!"

"Ah, stick it yourself, you hag!" Drake snapped. "We're handling things ourselves!"

"Ha! Try it, and I'll only make you suffer, more!"

Stefan looked at the bracelets. "Um… just out of curiosity, are these things water-proof?"

"No, why? …(gasp!) Don't you-"

Too late! Parker grabbed a flower vase and dumped the water on the anklets, making them short out and drain out the super-doctor's voice! "Ha! Some doctor… I doubt she even went to medical school!" Lupe scoffed.

"C'mon, boys…" Parker said, standing up and taking out his wand. "We've got some princesses to marry!"

- 3 - 3 - 3 -

A/N: Wow, 13 pages! Longest chapter yet!

So, the princes out-smarted Dr. K-Ko and are now on their way to get revenge, Shang is actually under a curse, and Pachira just accepted a date-offer from Puggsy. There's only one question that could sum all this up…

WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, NEXT?

Please review. Don't flame, it burns… real bad.
