Clow: What no fanfare, no boasting about how cool you are?
DM: No, but I'm so happy you think I'm cool. *glomps Clow* Oh, thanks for the muse Sera. *takes Pokeball* Are you sure you want to give him up? Cause I'm sure Sammy will be here anytime now. *crickets chirp in the background* I'll just borrow him then until he does.
Part 9
Sakura rubbed her eyes, wondering what had woken her up. Another hesitant knock on her door was the answer and Sakura got up quickly to see who it was. Opening her door, she saw little Daniel and Tomoyo with tired eyes standing in the doorway.
"Miss Sakura, I had a nightmare and Danny couldn't sleep. Can we stay with you?" Tomoyo asked.
"Of course you can. Come on in." Sakura stood aside and let them come in.
Tomoyo and Daniel ran into the room and jumped in her bed, giggling as they settled deep into the blankets and patted the empty spot between them. Sakura smiled and joined the two, snuggling in the covers with two small heads resting near hers. As they were all closing there eyes to sleep there was another knock on the door.
"I'll get it." Sakura got back out of the bed and opened the door to see the twins Serenity and Trinity at the door with big puppy eyes.
"Let me guess, you wanna stay in here too." The twins nodded and with a smile Sakura stepped aside to let them in. The girls ran to the bed and jumped in with a giggling Daniel and Tomoyo. Just as she was about to get in the bed herself there was another hesitant knock. Opening her door she saw that all of the younger kids and a few of the older ones were standing outside her door with pillows and blankets.
"Good thing I have a big room. Come on in and we'll make a big bed on the floor."
They all came in and greeted the four on the bed before setting up on the floor. Grabbing the extra blankets from the linen closet by the bathroom and borrowing pillows from rooms that had no occupants the floor was now just as cozy if not more so than the bed. Sakura didn't want to leave them down there on the floor and with the four little ones all settled on the makeshift floorbed with the others.
"Is everyone comfortable?" Sakura asked the room.
"Yeah," the room chorused.
"No one being left out of blankets or pillows?"
"No."
"Good. Now sleep everyone."
"Okay."

The next morning the whole group trudge down the stairs, for once having gotten a goodnights sleep. Even little Hype was able to sleep without twitching in his sleep.
"Hey sister." Daniel whispered as they were sitting down to eat breakfast.
"What's up, lil bro?" Sakura asked, piling some eggs on his plate and turning to pass the platter to some one else.
"Um, could I...uh...is it alright if I stay in your room again tonight?"
"Yeah can we?" asked the twins.
The room soon was filled with plans of that night's slumber party. Sakura didn't mind, she hated being alone and with all these children around her they filled a certain part of her heart that's been empty for so long. Glancing under her lashes, Sakura saw Yue looking confused at all the talk.
'Yue. An enigma for sure. He's...I dunno...cute that's a given. Those silver locks, violet eyes, sincere expression, if I still wasn't so self conscious I'd consider a relationship with him. I know he thinks I'm cute, I might look and act naive but my powers of observation is still good and the looks he sends me are not brotherly.' Sakura thought, absently eating her food and nodding to all the outrageous ideas for a slumber party.
"We can tell ghost stories!" Meilin said.
"No I don't want to be scared."
"Play telephone!"
"That's boring. Hide and Seek."
"We can figure it out later. It's only morning. Okay guys I'll see you later on this afternoon." Sakura stood and took her plate to the kitchen.
"I heard you all had a great time last night." Helen said as Sakura walked in.
"Yes we did. You want to join us tonight?" Sakura asked, placing her dish in the sink.
"I think I'll pass dear. These old bones wouldn't be able to keep up with you young ones."
"The offer stands in case you change your mind." with a wave of her hand Sakura left, just as Yue walked in.
"Hey Yue, I wanted to ask if you could help me with a few demonstrations in class today?" she asked, stopping in the middle of the doorway.
"Uh yeah sure. Do you want me to come in early?" he replied.
"If it wouldn't be any trouble. Thanks Yue." then she was gone.
Helen saw a large grin spread across Yue's face. Chuckling, she returned to washing dishes thinking how cute a couple Yue and Sakura would be.

DM: So here it is part nine. Sera, I know you warned me about your Charizard muse but I didn't think he was THAT bad.
Firethroat: Come here baby and give daddy a kiss.
DM pulls out large fan and hits Firethroat across the room.
Firethroat: Feisty...I like it.
DM: But I already feel the inspiration. Though as soon as Sammy gets back you can take him.
