A/N: FINALLY I HAVE RE-APPEARED! Alright here's the next chapter of What is This?

Duncans POV

Well since the kid told me I had work today, I made a sudden U-turn from the amusement park to where we were suppose to go to my job as a mechanic. I got a job ever since Courtney told me I had to pull my weight and pay the rent, even though I wouldn't be staying here long enough to do that.

"Duncan, why are you pulling me along I can walk you know" April said as I yanked her to the oily garage, God I could smell it from here, and it isn't very pleasant let me tell you.

"Your late, and on your first day too! Well I ought to fire right here… Hey who's the kid Your daughter?" My boss Mr. Nelison asked as he looked to the left seeing a small figure standing next to me. She was about to open her mouth the protest but I quickly put my hand on top of it.

"Yes sir, you see she had this, uh, thing to go to and as her father I just couldn't miss it." I said attempting to pull her into a hug, but that's kind of hard when she's trying to squirm away from you. I saw as his faced softened and he even smiled!

"Alright Duncan since you have such a cute kid…"

"I'M NOT CUTE!"

"and feisty too, I'll let you off the hook just this once, are we clear?" I couldn't help but smile at the fact that this was definitely not going to be the last time I use April to get out of a situation like this.

"Yes sir." I said, and as he walked away I let go of April only to see that she was pissed off, like REALLY pissed off.

"Duncan, why did you say that?" She said, attempting to sound calm but failing, so I decided to have a little fun with the whole process.

"What, what did I say April?"

"You know what you said."

"About you being my daughter?"

"YES!"

"Well why are you so mad about that? Most people would be honored to even be in the same league as me." This is what tipped her over the edge.

"WHY WOULD I EVER WANT TO BE IN THE SAME 'LEAGUE' AS YOU?" She scream so loud I swear I thought I brain was bleeding.

"Chill out kid I said I was kidding." I said as I pulled on the smock and tied it around my waist.

"Duncan."

"Yeah kid?"

"Could you not call me 'kid' anymore? I'm sick of I, my names April." I looked down and saw the serious look on her face, I sighed.

"Well k- I mean April if that's what you want I'll do my best." I saw the look in her eye and it wasn't a look I saw very often coming from her, it was a look a gratitude. I smiled as I looked at he engine I had in front of me.

"Hey April hand me the wrench would you?"

"Duncan?"

"Yeah April?"

"What's a wrench?" Oh my God this girl didn't know what a wrench was! Oh well when living with someone who knows very little about cars I doubt she ever learned about them. I decided to grab it myself.

"Duncan?"

"Yeah?"

"Thanks." I looked shocked

"For what?"

"For just… not being a jerk, like my father." She said with a ghost of a smile tracing her face.

"Yeah sure April, no problem." And for the rest of the time, we just sat in silence
