The monkeys woke to the smell of food.
Otto immediatly grabbed Sprx and dragged the half-asleep monkey out the door. Nova smiled and ran after the two followed by Gibson, leaving a very confused Antauri.
He slowly rose from the bed, pondering why they were there in the first place. He remembered the night before and smiled. He hopped out of the bed,
but paused when he felt something his his chest.
Looking down, his eyes came to rest on the locket. He held it, gently, and gazed curiously into the dark black crystal on the front. He turned it over and frowned confused. 'Aegisess? What is that?'
He fingered it gingerly before opening it. Inside was a picture of himself and Chiro, asleep on a bench at the beach, hands intertwined. He smiled at the memory. That was the day they had been dragged to the beach by an overly enthuiastic Otto, and had stayed there until they had passed out, and had to be dragged back.
Above the picture, was the word, 'Father.' A huge grin lit up his face, and he ran to find his son.
In the kitchen, the others were just discovering their own lockets. Otto's had fallen into his food and he had tried, unsucessfully, to eat it, much to the annoyance of Nova.
She yanked it out of his mouth and looked confused at it. The others were pointing to her chest, and when she looked down, she saw hers. It was then that the boys saw theirs.
Otto's had a green crystal, Nova's gold, Sprx's bright red, Gibsons' a dark dark blue. They opened them to see various pictures of themselves with their leader, having fun, or just talking. Above each picture, was a word, whether it be mother, or brother, each monkey was crying happy tears. They smiled widely, extreemly happy that Chiro thought of them as his family.
Nova gazed lovingly at her's, but was rammed by a joyous Otto and dropped it. She frowned slightly and went to pick it up, when she paused. The others noticed and looked at her, curious. She picked it up, staring, "Does yours have writing on it?"
They all looked, and tried unsuccesfully to understand what was written.
"What does Crithia mean?"
"What about Avae'ess?"
"Hmmm, Daoine? What could that mean?"
"What the heck is a Ardavanshee?"
Chiro laughed at their antics, watching through the doorway, the food forgotten. He walked silently into the room and sat on his chair, watching them.
"Hey brainstrain, got any ideas?"
"Be quiet, Sparky. If I knew, I would tell you!"
"Why do you think the kid knows this?"
"Oh, I don't know Sprx. Maybe he does something with his time, instead of just playing videogames all day."
"Hey, Nova! It's training thank you very much!"
Chiro burst out laughing again, causing them to jump, which just made him laugh harder. They smiled, embarased at him, and Antauri walked in.
"If you- if you want to know-I could've just told you!" He said between bursts of laughter. When he calmed down, he sat backwards on his chair, arms folded with his head resting on them.
He looked to Nova, "Crithia means Sunbeam, because you have the brightest heart." She smiled gloatingly at the others. He then turned to Otto, "Avae'ess means joy bringer." Otto grinned and put a hand behind his head. "Yours," he said to Gibson, "means stars, as in, your knowledge and kindness is as unlimited as the stars." Happiness overflowed from Gibson's eyes. "Antauri, Aegisess means Bringer of Protection," (self explanatory) Antauri smiled. "And Sprx," Chiro turned to him, a smirk on his face, "Ardavanshee," he paused, "means Juvenile Delinquent."
The look on Sprx's face, made Chiro scream out in fresh laughter and fall to the ground, clutching his sides. The others, only needed to take one glance at him, before bursting out in laughter of their own. Sprx just stood there, and amused look on his face, before an evil smirk replaced. He looked to Antauri, knowingly, and Antauri nodded, smirking.
"Well well well, kid." Chiro glanced up, and seeing Sprx and Antauri with his ghost claws out brought panic. 'oh crap!' he yelled in his head, and began backing away, Gisir just laughed. 'ITS NOT FUNNY!' and laughed all the harder.
The others after recovering, realized what was going to happen and joined in, pinning Chiro to the ground. "W-wait! Can't we discuss this?" Antauri brought his claws closer and hovered them just above his stomach. Otto tied his limbs down and prepared the torture, as did the others.
One word set it off. "Go!"
If you asked anyone in Suggazume that day, they would have said that the screams of laughter could be heard for miles.
Me: They were tickling him in case you didn't realize.
Chiro:Yeah thanks alot!
Me: so you want some more? (makes Gisir appear)
Gisir: This just isn't your day!, (runs at him)
Chiro: Traitor...! (runs away)
Me: keep forgetting to say, I own nothing except Gisir and the plot.
Antauri: But even thats questionable.
Sprx: I want my lawyer.
Me: I love you to.
