Just An Experiment
Chapter Seventeen: Yakko Knew?
In a small abandoned warehouse in Burbank…
Yakko and Wakko listened to the Brain as he spoke of saving the universe again. Shortly after 2:00 that morning, all the detectors quit emitting a signal, so they didn't have to worry about being tracked anymore. Dr. Fay had lost interest in the Warner Brothers somehow. The Brain assured them she could not have known about what he did yet, she had simply gathered the full data she wanted on them at the moment. Later, everything would turn back on when more experiments would take place.
"Well, if that was the case why didn't she quit after the tower fiasco?" Yakko reminded him.
Pinky and The Brain both looked over at Zenny.
Zenny sighed. He had to tell them at some point. Not about Dot, heck no! Dot would be by his side when he confessed that. No, he did however have to tell them about the other experiment. "One of you might want to take Caress away for a little while."
Wakko and Yakko looked at him strangely, but Yakko picked Caress up and walked off. "Let's go bug people on the street, Caress!" Yakko grinned at the little warner as he started bouncing down the street with her.
Wakko looked back at Zenny with worry. "Okay. What is it?"
"I'm really sorry," Zenny said sympathetically. "I know you two grew very attached to that girl, but she's not your niece."
"Huh?" Wakko just stared at him in absolute disbelief.
"I'm sure you've noticed it at some point. She doesn't have a hot temper, she acts more sweet than cute, and you know. Just never matched," Zenny replied. "Your niece's number is 41592-90. That Caress' number is 41592-86."
Wakko scratched his head. "Well…you have to have your numbers wrong, Zenny! She even had Dot's flower!"
"It was probably a setup." Zenny sighed. "Dr. Fay was probably testing to see if the bond you shared was because you were family, or if it was psychological."
"…huh?" Wakko still couldn't believe it.
"Does Caress ever talk about her mom? Anything that doesn't make sense?" Zenny asked. "Does she even look like Dot?"
"Well…okay!" Wakko shrugged his shoulders. "Natural or not, she's still our niece!" He grinned. "We love her just as much!"
"Yeah, but she is not your niece." Zenny said. "She's mine. My sister is number 86." He shook his head. "You can start an unrelated family bond in a den, Wakk, not out here. Once Aroma gets her back, she's not gonna live with you guys."
"…" Wakko was quiet for a few seconds. "You mean…she's gonna take Caress away?"
"Look, it's not like that. Don't blame Aroma. Would you go live with strangers just because they've formed a bond with your daughter?" Zenny asked logically. "I don't think so."
Wakko gulped. "Caress is like family."
"Aroma's a real nice warner. She might let you visit her." Zenny smiled.
Wakko did not seem cheerful at all. "Caress is…someone else's family…"
Wakko slowly stood up and walked away. Once they got Dot back, they would lose the little warner they were so fond of. He felt a deep hurt inside of him. He started to remember all the times they had with the little warner. When they first found her. When she first ate ice cream. When she first catcalled a woman! Wakko had to smile at that. She wanted to be just like her Uncles.
"Leave me alone already!"
"Wait, wait! You forgot this," Yakko called out as he ran after an old man who had dropped his hat.
"Yeah, yeah, you forget that," Caress laughed as she hung onto Yakko's shoulders as he ran.
Wakko smiled sadly. This was not gonna be easy. Yakko was fond of Caress too. In fact, he was more fond of her than he should have been. Especially at first.
Yakko stopped chasing the stranger as he ran over to Wakko and grinned. "So, what was up?"
Wakko tried to smile at Caress. "You go in with Zenny and the mice okay?"
Caress grinned widely and ran inside after Yakko set her down.
"So, what was the experiment that they think we completed?"
"Caress…" Wakko took a deep breath. He hated this. Who could actually do something like this? "….Caress isn't our niece, Yakko."
Yakko looked at him funny. "Huh?"
"Caress belongs to Zenny's sister," Wakko said softly as he kicked a rock nearby. "When we rescue Dot, his sister's gonna take her away."
"What?" Yakko frowned. "That can't be right. I mean, she had Dot's flower!"
"Which was a setup," Wakko said softly again. "Dr. Fay wanted to test if our bond was…" He started to remember Zenny's exact words. "Bond we shared was because we were family, or if it was psychological."
Yakko just stared at Wakko.
Wakko just stared at Yakko.
"Caress isn't…f-family?" Yakko asked, knowing the answer.
"Sorry, Yakko." Wakko looked at the ground. "I grew really attached to her too!" He tried to smile. "But uhhh, Zenny says his sister Aroma might let us visit. That's great news, right?"
Yakko couldn't answer. He just shook his head in denial. "Well, he's a liar!" Yakko shouted angrily. "Caress is relation, I know she is!"
"Yakko, calm down," Wakko pleaded. "You know there's no reason for him to lie. Besides, she never looked like Dot. Never acted like Dot. Never even laughed like Dot."
"Well, she took after the dad, Wakko!" Yakko shouted. "Okay? She is relation, I know she is." He grinned. "I know she is! She is, Wakko, I don't care what anyone says."
"Yellow and pink aren't her colors." Wakko went on. "She never recognizes Dot in our old films or cartoons. Dot never told her about us. There are so many things that we should have-"
"No!" Yakko stomped his foot and crossed his arms. "I won't believe it! Never, no way, no how! Not until Dot herself says she isn't hers."
"Yakko, don't do this," Wakko whined. "It's gonna be harder. We need to tell Caress-"
"Squat, 'cause it's not true! Zenny's information is wrong," Yakko yelled angrily. "Never, no way, no how!" He tried to calm himself down. 'It's not true. I know it's not true.' "Wakko…we're going to see Dot soon, right?" He smiled. "Real soon. Then, you'll see. Caress is family, she is."
Wakko sighed. Yakko would not give in until he heard it from Dot herself. "Alright, Yakko. Until Dot says so." He agreed.
Yakko nodded rapidly. "Good. Your making sense again. Now let's go back in and see what's next."
When they went back to the warehouse, Yakko immediately picked Caress up. "Didja miss me?"
Caress laughed. "Uncle Yakko. You were only gone a minute."
Wakko shrugged his shoulders behind Yakko and looked at Zenny.
Zenny got the hint. "So, first things first. I've made some contacts and we've got enough power to take that ship down easily. They'll take care of everything on the ship. These aren't nice guys like warners either. They told us if we want the little warners, it's up to us alone."
"Hey, that's okay. A simple three-day trip," Wakko said as he smiled.
"We better get back to her ship too afterwards. I'm not kidding, these guys aren't nice. They are taking care of the bad guys, but they aren't taking any of the victims home that aren't from their own space area." Zenny frowned. "They said they could rot away for all they cared."
"Ooh, selfish. Not a good corner of space, is it?" Wakko stated nervously.
Hopefully, everything would go alright.
Turyip 3 days later…
"~ Someone's happy to see you today. Someone's happy to see you today. They give a smile and they brighten your day. Someone's happy to see you today.~" Polka Dot sang softly to her Tiger. He was still so scared for some reason. "~Who is it that's happy to see you today? Who is it that's happy to see you today? Tell me now, Tiger, please just say! Who is happy to see you today?~"
Tiger just sang very softly. "~ Someone's happy to see me today. Someone's happy to see me today. They give a smile and they brighten my day. Someone's happy to see me today.~"
Polka Dot continued. "~Who is happy to see you today? Who is happy to see you today? Who's giving you a smile and brightening your day? Who is happy to see you today?~"
Tiger hung on tighter. "~Mommy's happy to see me today. Mommy's happy to see me today. She gives me a smile, hip hip hooray. I feel special, I'm loved today.~"
"Yeah!" Polka Dot grinned as she bounced. "But, you should be cheery when you sing the song!"
"Yeah," the real Dot smiled. She started to bounce beside Polka Dot. "~Who else is happy to see you today! Your Auntie Dottie! Don't forget that, okay?!~"
Tiger just nodded his head.
Polka Dot groaned as she patted his head affectionately. "You need to snap out of it, Tiger. Nothing's wrong, don't worry." She looked over at her sister in concern. "Dot? What should I do? He's still so frightened."
The real Dot shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know, Polka Dot."
Polka just smiled at Tiger. "It'll be okay! I'm sure it will, you're just going through a hard growing phase. I'm here though, don't forget that."
Tiger nodded his head.
The real Dot walked over to where her Enchantment was crawling around. She got down on all fours and wiggled her tail. "And how's my baby today?"
Enchantment just giggled at her. Polka Dot's Enchantment started to crawl toward her.
"Well hello there to you too, niecey!" Dot giggled to Polka's daughter.
Polka's daughter grinned and tried to clap her hands.
Polka Dot strolled over. "Oh! Is she trying to make music?" She set Tiger down. "See Tiger? Everything will be fine. Look, your baby sister is even happy!" Polka Dot started to clap her hands in a simple rhythm.
The real Dot joined her.
Polka's Enchantment tried to copy them. "Wadaddwiddodwwoooddaodadooo!"
The real Dot started to laugh. "She's trying to sing!"
Dot's Enchantment was starting to look a bit jealous at Polka Dot's daughters' attention. She started to crawl on top of her, trying to push her down.
"No, No Enchanty!" The real Dot went over to grab her jealous baby. "Bad! You be a good girl! You only get angry when someone does something you don't like!"
Enchantment just looked at her mom with a 'duh' expression on her face.
Polka Dot's daughter just brushed it off and continued her hand clapping. "Wadaaaayaaaawaaooo!"
Polka Dot smiled at Tiger. "Tiger? You feeling any better yet? Do you want to sing another song?"
Tiger shook his head. He watched the happy expression on Enchantment's face. 'I want to be happy again. Enchantment's happy. I feel so strange though…'
As time went by, warner children came back and forth through the hole in the bubble. Some parents had to actually leave a great distance just to watch out for the warners. After all, there were tons of little warners and only 10 adults to watch them!
Dot strolled outside the bubble and looked around. Little warners had gotten over their facility minded nature. They were bouncing, shouting, shape-shifting, hanging from trees, standing on their heads, dancing, singing, playing jump rope with their tails, everything! Everything they should have always been able to do. She couldn't help but laugh! 'Boy! If these kids were all on Earth, they would have torn it to shreds!'
A different location on Turyip…
"Boy! If these kids were all on Earth, they would have torn it to shreds," Yakko whined. "We're supposed to bring them all back?!"
"Oh no, not to Earth," Zenny laughed. "We'll take them home to Anima. Besides, Earth isn't really safe anymore."
"Right now," Wakko reminded him. He smiled. "Soon it will be though, because the scientists and everything will disappear."
"Correct." The Brain agreed. "Although, when they disappear-"
"It'll be the end of the peace of the universe." Yakko, Wakko and Zenny all groaned at the same time. The mouse just didn't get it. It was impossible to change a warner. Whatever info he found had to be bogus, there's no way someone as evil as Dr. Fay could have been a warner.
The Brain crossed his arms. The warners refused to believe him. He was not making it up. He could not rule Earth if the universe was controlled by someone else. What could he do?
Pinky just grinned at him blissfully. "I love vacations, Brain! We haven't left Earth in forever! Narf!"
"This is not a vacation, Pinky." The Brain frowned.
Pinky pointed at the warners. "Are you sure, Brain?"
The Brain ran his hand down his face in frustration as he watched the warners suddenly playing volleyball. Out of nowhere. For no reason at all. 'Someone end the torture.' "Warners!"
The warners dropped the ball.
"Sorry!" Wakko exclaimed. "We just saw all the kids and energy and-"
"Wanna play?!" Zenny asked excitedly.
"We are here to retrieve the little warners." The Brain growled. "Remember?"
"Yeah, yeah!" Yakko grinned as he held Caress up. "Got one!"
Zenny laughed. "Alright Mr. R, we're moving." He put his hands around his mouth. "Free ice cream! Free coooooookies! Free caaaaaaaandy! All in the spaceship!"
Suddenly, tons of warner kids started running!
"?!"
"Get out of the way!" Yakko yelled as he ran up a tree with Caress.
"Ahhh!" Wakko tried to climb up too as he felt warners practically swimming to get past. He even had little warners bouncing off his head. He sighed with relief as he got up into the tree. "Where'd Zenny and the mice go?"
"Yo," Zenny laughed and waved at them from the other tree. "Okay, yeah. There's at least 200, huh?"
"Where are you going?! Stop!"
The warners looked down and saw two adult warners going after the little warners.
"Hey, don't worry!" Zenny waved at them happily. "We're rescuers!"
The two adults stopped chasing the kids and grinned. "Rescuers?! Are you serious?! Seriously?! Are you seriously serious?!" They yelled together.
"We're as seriously serious as we seriously could be!" Yakko shouted back as he and the others all jumped down from the tree.
"How? How'd you find us?!" The warner male asked excitedly. "You've got a spaceship?"
"Yeah," Wakko grinned. "So, who's gonna guard it?"
Yakko and Zenny just looked at Wakko.
"Huh?" Wakko didn't look very cheery.
"Well, you always complained you never got the phone or anything." Yakko grinned. "What could be more important?"
Caress just laughed.
"Great. Here, follow us. We'll take you to everybody," The female said excitedly. "Move, move, move."
The warners all ran with Pinky and the Brain hanging onto Zenny's shoulders.
Yakko's ears tickled with happiness as he heard his sister Dot's voice! His Warner Sister Dot! He heard her laughing happily. She was still okay!
"Caress! Tiger! Good job! How long can you stay up there?"
'Caress?' He looked down at Caress. "Why's she saying Caress? She's right here."
"Yo Dottie!" Zenny laughed as he ran up to her.
"Who the hell called me-Zenny?!" Dot's eyes grew wide as she saw her male. "Zenny?!" She immediately ran straight for him. "Zenny, you're alive!"
Dot ran up to him and he hugged her, twirling her around in circles. Then, she just about fainted as she saw her next surprise. "….Y-Yakko?"
Yakko didn't say anything as he just nodded. He grinned at her. "Dot? Dot?!"
Dot laughed and ran up to him. "Yakko!"
Yakko set Caress down just in time before Dot went plowing into him.
"Yakko! Yakko! Yakko! Yakko! Yakko! Yakko!" Dot yelled happily. "You're here?"
"Of course I am. I'm your big brother after all," Yakko shouted happily. He looked down at her. "Oh gosh. You did grow up, didn't you?" He whined. "Look at you. You've got…everything." He said uncheerily. "You're not gonna be chasing after harmless guys anymore, dangerous guys are gonna chase after you. What the heck, Dot? Couldn't you have been ugly?"
Zenny smiled at Dot. 'She's finally got her family back. Look how happy she is!' He decided to leave them alone for a second and ran away to find his sister.
Dot laughed. "I missed you too. Where's Wakko?" She asked excitedly.
"He's guarding the ship," Yakko grinned. He looked down at Caress. She hadn't clung on to Dot or said a word to her yet.
"Mommy, mommy, mommy! Who's that?"
Dot started to bounce up and down. "Yakko, Yakko! You've gotta meet my kids!" She pointed to the little warners running up to her. "They are called Tiger and Caress. I can't believe this. I can't believe you're really here still." She bounced up and down, clapping her hands. Her children mimicked her.
"Oh…" Yakko laughed nervously. "Caress, huh?" He looked over at the Caress bouncing up and down beside Dot. A picture perfect match. To Dot.
"Caress?!"
Another warner's voice was heard calling for Caress as well.
Caress let go of Yakko's trousers she had been clinging onto and ran happily. "Momma, momma, momma!"
Yakko watched in disappointment as his Caress ran to the mysterious voice. 'Zenny was right. She's not? But…'
"Don't look sad, Yakko! This is the best day ever!" Dot shouted happily. "I should have known something was up when you stopped showing on satellite."
"Of course. Yeah. Best Day Ever." Yakko grinned. "Best day. Best…whuh?"
Dot grinned as she saw the look on Yakko. She knew who he just spotted. After all, Polka Dot was a good looking warner too.
When Polka Dot saw Yakko…she turned back around quickly. Zenny who was standing by her side, was not looking pleased at Yakko's expression. He walked over to him, letting him know where he stood with her.
Dot giggled. Polka Dot was definitely surprised. "Her name's Aroma, Yakko."
"Whoah! Helloooooooo Nurse," Yakko shouted. "Whoah! Damn, she was-!"
"No!" Zenny pushed Yakko back forcefully. "Keep your eyes off, that's my sister!"
"Zenny!" Dot scolded. "Don't be mean to my brother. I told you not to be mean to my brothers."
"Well, I've seen him and I do not approve!" Zenny yelled angrily. "He's a hound. He'll whistle at anything with two legs." He pointed angrily at Yakko. "Back off."
"Zenny. All warner guys are hounds. You can't tell him to back off," Dot shouted angrily.
Yakko felt a little strange. Usually, when Wakko and him found someone hot, Dot gave a negative comment like 'Boys, go fig.' Why was she standing up for him?
"Dot?!"
"Wakko?" Dot forget her argument with Zenny and started running toward her second brother. "Wakko, Wakko, Wakko, Wakko, Wakko, Wakko!"
Wakko laughed as he got kerplowed into by his baby sister. "Dot! It's so great to see you again. And you…uuuhh…" He looked at her funny. "Shoot. You're pretty."
Dot cheered. "Yes, I am! I'm pretty and cute."
"Well, can you make yourself uglier?" Wakko whined.
Dot just continued to laugh. Her brothers didn't mind her chasing after guys before. She was small, cute, and harmless looking. Now she was almost as tall as Wakko and she had developed. Va va voom! Meaning, she wouldn't be doing the chasing anymore. Which did not sit well with them at all.
'Oh, they only think I'll be chased.' Dot smiled to herself. ' They probably didn't know about Zenny yet. Most likely, he would wait for me. Great.'
Wakko grinned. He left the ship once more adults got on board. "I didn't think we'd find you here, I thought you'd still be on the ship."
"No, we were picked as observers. Some stupid experiment again," Dot said. "I can't believe you guys are really here."
Dot's Tiger and Caress looked up at their Uncles.
"Come on guys, say hi to them!" Dot bounced up and down. "They know all about you. I told them everything. They've always wanted to meet you."
Wakko laughed. "Hi there."
"Hi, Uncle Wakko!" Caress and Tiger yelled at the same time as they continued to bounce.
"Is it true that you can eat an entire table full of food and still eat more?" Tiger asked Wakko curiously.
Wakko laughed. "Yeah, I can. And more, it's really easy. I'll show you later!"
Caress grinned at Yakko. "…hi!"
Yakko waved at her. 'So, this is my niece?' "Hey there."
"Alright! Let's get out of here!" Dot cheered happily. "Let's go home!"
"No, it's not safe yet. Soon, but not yet." Wakko said. "We have to take the little warners back to Anima anyhow."
"Okay, fine. Just as long as it's not near here anymore." Dot continued to bounce up and down excitedly, her kids still mimicking her
Polka Dot's Caress ran back up to Yakko. "Yakko! Mommy's here! Mommy's here again!"
"Yeah. Yeah." Yakko tried to sound cheerful for her.
Polka Dot tried to come closer again. 'He's just a warner. He's Dot's brother. She said he won't force me to do things I don't want to. He's kind. He's nice.'
"Whoah!?" Wakko's jaw dropped to the ground. He picked it back and shouted at Polka Dot. "Helloooooo Nurse!"
"Wakko, no!" Dot scolded him.
Yakko looked at her funny again. It was okay for him to whistle, but not Wakko?
"Keep off!" Zenny pushed Wakko down. "That's my sister!"
"Hey, don't push him," Yakko shouted at Zenny. Geez, Wakko didn't even jump either. "He can't help it." He grinned. "She's hot!"
"She's my baby sister. Stop looking at her like-" Zenny started to rant again.
"Leave Yakko alone!" Dot shouted, standing up for her brother again.
Wakko still grinned at Polka Dot and waved. 'Oohh…geez, if only Zenny wasn't here.'
Then, the rest of the adults that were left in the bubble came out.
Some warner females there were cute too, but Yakko and Wakko weren't dumb.
'Male. Male. Male. Male.' They calculated in their head. Mess with another warner's female, and you would get more than whacked. One of the reason neither of them were testing Zenny.
But boy, was it getting harder. Besides Dot, Cartoons and humans were the only females they had seen in so long! Of course, rules were different on Earth than out in space. They would have to tread lightly. They had to try and tread lightly.
"Yakko, you've gotta meet Aroma." Dot cheered delightfully as she grabbed onto his arm. She looked behind her and saw Aroma was gone again. "She's just a bit shy at times. Adorable, huh?" Dot giggled and let go of him again to hunt her friend down. "Aroma!"
Yakko looked over at Wakko. "Is Dot making any sense to you?"
"She says fine for you, not for me?" Wakko scratched his head. "Is she trying to fix you up?"
"Why?" Yakko shrugged his shoulders. "That doesn't make sense. She isn't making sense. You don't think some really serious damage happened to her in that place, do you?"
Dot's Caress and Tiger just started laughing. Their Uncle Yakko was funny!
Polka Dot's Caress ran back after her mother. "Momma? Where's Tiger?"
"Do you know what's up with these names?" Wakko asked Dot. "All the kids seemed to be called Caress, Tiger, Enchantment, and what was the others?"
"Tigger, Moxie, and Cyrus." Dot finished. "Yep. All of the kids have one of those names. I've got no clue what it's about." She rubbed her hands. "Finally! I can give my kids their own names! Names they deserve, that aren't assigned to them."
Wakko nodded. "Let's head back. I bet almost everyone's on now."
Dot grinned and looked over at Zenny. She looked at him funny. "Why do you have Pinky and the Brain on your shoulders?"
"Did you expect them to figure everything out by themselves?" The Brain frowned.
"Oh. Okay…" She looked at him a little funny, then laughed. "Guess we weren't the only ones hiding secrets on Earth."
"Come on already, let's go," Wakko shouted at her.
"Not yet. I need to go grab Enchantment. I'll meet you there. Take your niece and nephew." Dot laughed as she started to run. Of course, she had to do more than just grab Enchantment. "Oh Arooommmaaaaa!"
Polka Dot sighed as she heard her real name. She was happy she was free, but she was still weary. Everything was happening so fast. She held Tiger and Enchantment close to her. Caress was hanging onto her pants like usual. How was she supposed to do this?
"Don't be scared, Aroma." Dot laughed as she ran up to her. "This is gonna be great. We'll all be together now."
"That's right mommy." Aroma's Caress started to bounce up and down. "We're going home!"
"Yeah." Aroma still felt uncomfortable. "I guess I should tell them."
"And him," Dot grinned.
Aroma grinned at her. "Could you maybe do that for me?"
"Aroma." Dot pouted. "No, you go tell Yakko. He doesn't bite. Come on, you've watched him."
"Yeah, he's a hound." Aroma sighed. "I left Anima to run away from warners like him. And lood where I ended up."
"Well, okay, I know. He attacks anything on two legs almost." Dot gave in. "But he's a really good warner! I promise, he's not gonna do anything bad to you. He's my brother."
"Yeah. Zenny is not gonna like it either." Aroma started to cheer up when she remembered him. "I don't know how he did it. He's alive, Dot!"
"I know, I know!" Dot started to get giddy and bounced around. "I knew somehow, you know? Even though I saw it, I still couldn't let it go."
"I know, me too. He's really alive." Aroma bounced with her and started to dance with Dot happily.
"Momma?" Tiger looked at his mother sadly. "What's going on?"
"Tiger." Aroma picked up her boy happily. "Stop looking so sad. We are safe now!"
"Safe? Is there safety?" Tiger felt a small chill. "Are you sure?"
"Momma, what's wrong with Tiger?" Caress asked as she pulled Aroma's pants.
"He's just growing up," Aroma insisted. "Don't worry, everything's gonna be okay." She sighed and looked at Caress. "Did you like spending time with Yakko?"
Caress grinned. "Uncle Yakko was the best. He was the best ever. He even taught me the neatest songs. Uncle Wakko did too."
"Well, there's something you need to know about Yakko." Aroma bent down and smiled at both her children. "He's your daddy."
"He's who?" Tiger asked. "Who's Yakko?"
"Huh?" Caress looked at her mother very confused. "What do you mean, momma?"
"They thought I was their sister. I'm not their sister. Well, actually I am. Wakko's. Sort of. Okay, it's confusing." Aroma laughed. "Just trust me, he's your daddy."
"Uncle Yakko's my daddy?" Caress grinned. "He really, really, really, really is?!"
"Yeah. I'll explain how when you get older. 100 years from now or so." Aroma smiled. She looked over at Dot. "Okay Dot. Can you go get him?"
"Yes." Dot cheered as she ran off. Finally. Yakko would know about his own family. She never knew whether Yakko wanted a female and kids. He'd always just been a zany brother. He'd been really good with Aroma's daughter though, so he should be okay with it.
Dot caught up with her brothers over by the ship. "Ummm…Yakko? I need to talk to you."
"Huh?" Yakko ran over to her. "What's up?"
"Well, it's kind of a big thing." Dot smiled. "I don't know if you'll like it or not. It's about the little warner girl you were taking care of? Aroma needs to talk to you about her."
"Oh." Yakko's expression was a bit less cheerful. "I already know. Zenny looked at the doctor's information. He told me."
"You know?" Dot seemed surprised.
Yakko nodded. "Yeah. I didn't want to believe it, but yeah." He tried to smile. "She's got a nice mom at least."
"Oh." Dot sighed. "Not really happy. I knew it would be a shock, but I kinda thought you might like it."
"What?" Yakko looked at her funny. "Like it? No way, I don't like it! I liked things the way they were." He crossed his arms. "How could I ever like it?"
"Sorry," Dot said sharply. He didn't just dislike it, he hated it. He only wanted to play Uncle! "Aroma already told them who you were."
"Told them?" Yakko just shrugged his shoulders. "Look, Wakko and I will talk about it later but maybe we could visit her. Something? I don't really know."
Visit? He only wanted to visit? Dot looked at him coldly. They were his kids! "Fine, visit!" She said coldly as she went to the spaceship. She knew Yakko wasn't big on responsibility just like every other warner, but she wasn't expecting such a cold treatment!
Yakko seemed a bit confused. 'Maybe this place did do something to her! She keeps acting so weird. Why would she think I liked Caress not being a niece? I really liked that little girl. It's messed up.' He growled. 'If that doctor really did hurt her in any way….' He took a deep breath. He tried to smile. 'Think happy! She's coming home!' "Wait up, Dot!"
