Baby: Chapter 2
"Cuteness!!!" (you'll notice this word is used a LOT in this chapter...)
White Blaze sighed, anxiously staring at the back door to the house. The sounds of the Nintendo 64 had silenced, and all the tiger could hear was the incessant snoring of the pink creature cuddled next to him. Suddenly, and much to the cat's relief, the back door was flung wide open by Ryo. "White Blaze! Time to come inside!" The tiger immediately leaped to his feet, but in doing so, woke the pink bundle of cuteness next to him. White Blaze sighed and walked, sullen-faced, into the house, followed all-too-happily by the pink creature. Ryo stared. "Um...uh...er....ah...um...." he said. It seemed quite strange to him that his loyal tiger friend would walk through the door being followed by what appeared to be a pink baby dragon. He just kept on staring.
"Hey, Ryo, what are you staring at?" Kento asked, as he popped a Whoppers malted milk ball into his mouth. He didn't seem to notice. Obviously.
"That," Ryo replied, lifting a hand to point at the tiny, pink, dragon-like creature, which persisted in trying to catch White Blaze's tail as the tiger sat on the living room floor. Kento dropped a milk ball. Dais and Cye were both also staring, slack-jawed, at the bouncing bundle of cuteness. Rowen was still snoozing on the couch.
"WHY is there a pink dragon in our living room?" Cye asked, still staring. The tiny creature paid no attention, and kept bouncing around in pursuit of the tiger's elusive tail.
"It's actually kinda cute..." Dais said, taking a step forward. Six eyes were suddenly on Dais. "What?" he said with a shrug.
"Dais," Kento said slowly, "did you just say what I think you said?"
"Well..uh...I was...I was just pointing out that....that it....it's.......cute.." Dais stammered. He nervously scratched his neck as he glanced at the other faces around the room. Just then, Cale walked in from the kitchen, where he'd been retrieving another orange soda, and stopped dead in his tracks. A yellow straw hung from his open mouth as he gazed upon the little pink creature, who was now preoccupied with an empty orange soda can. Speechless, all he could do was hold up a hand and point at it. The adorable little creature, completely oblivious to their presence, continued to chase and pounce upon the empty can. White Blaze sighed and took refuge behind Ryo while he had the chance.
"Hey guys, what kind of pizza do you-- What the hell is that?!" Sage yelped in surprise as he came through the kitchen door, dropping the cordless phone and a sheet of Pizza Hut coupons. In response to his cry, Anubis and Sekhmet appeared, peering over opposite ends of the second floor balcony. Rowen woke up with a start and glanced around, sitting up and stretching a bit. "What the hell is what?" he asked, then answered his own question when he looked down to see a little pink dragon tugging at his shoe laces. "What the hell IS that?!" Rowen echoed Sage. By now, nearly all the eyes in the household were locked onto the pink critter, as it began to gnaw on Rowen's shoe.
All eyes, except for....
"OH MY GOD!!!"
.....Yep.......
"Uh oh," Kento said, as everyone turned to face the stairs.
"CUTENESS!!" Mia squealed as she bolted down the stairs, into the living room, and scooped the pink creature up into her arms faster than anyone had time to comprehend. "CUTE! CUTE! CUUUUUUTE!!" she shrieked, nearly crushing the poor animal in her grasp.
"Woah, Mia! Hey! Stop before you kill the poor thing!" Dais yelled as he leaped forward, prying the pink animal - whose face was beginning to look purple - from Mia's crushing hug. "Poor thing!" he said, gasping and slowly backing away, holding the trembling creature. Trying to pry something from Mia was like attempting to haul an SUV uphill with one hand. Not easy!
"But it's cute!" she screamed in reply, reaching out to hug the now pink again reptile. Upon seeing her outstretched arms, the little creature's eyes swelled up to the size of dinner plates. Immediately afterwards, Dais had a pink dragon glued to his face, and Mia was in the kitchen holding a towel and an ice pack to her cheek.
"Ok, now! Pull!!" Kento yelled, as he and Sekhmet tried for the umpteenth time to pry the pink dragon from Dais's head, but to no avail. It wasn't going to let go any time soon. Mia poked her head in from the kitchen to see how the efforts were going, and the door was promptly slammed in her face by Ryo when the pink creature shrieked upon sight of its attacker. Back to square one, not that they'd ever really left it in the first place.
"Mmmf! Smbdy gt dis fing omf!!" Dais tried to scream, but was unfortunately muffled by the dragon's plump white belly. Those around him assumed, correctly, that he was saying 'Somebody get this thing off!' Unfortunately, no one could think of any means to remove the infant reptile from the Warlord's cranium. Before anyone could think of anything useful, however, Dais lost consciousness from lack of oxygen and collapsed onto the living room floor. This, sadly, did not cause the little dragon to disengage itself from his head. White Blaze, with a sigh, plodded forward, and gently closed his jaws around the little critter's neck. This worked surprisingly well, for upon feeling the tiger's jaws, the tense bundle of pinkness went completely limp and allowed itself to be carried to White Blaze's "den" (a spare room furnished with tiger toys and etc. for the big cat). Ryo and co. simply stared for a few minutes, before the fact that Dais was lying unconscious on the living room floor struck their minds, and they promptly began to scramble about in search of a first aid kit.
"It's so cute, though!" Mia pleaded. After Dais had regained consciousness, the group sat down in the kitchen to discuss the situation. Meanwhile, White Blaze was keeping the pink whatever-is-was busy. "What if it was abandoned?" Mia whined, flashing her "sad puppy dog" face around the room. Ryo sighed, rubbing his forehead. They'd been going on and on about this for an hour now, and the tiger's agonized yowls were growing louder by the minute. "I don't think it's a good idea. What if it wasn't abandoned? Its parents might come looking for it!" Ryo explained for the tenth time to a very stubborn Mia.
"So?" she replied for the eleventh.
"I have to agree with Ryo," Rowen said, running a hand through his hair, "We don't even know what it is."
"It is kinda cute..." Kento said, immediately feeling all the eyes of the room on him. "W-well, it is...b-but that doesn't mean...we can...keep it...?" he said, giving an uncertain glance toward Ryo, who only sighed and shook his head. Cale stood in the background, slurping yet another orange soda. "I have an idea," he said, surprising everyone in the room that he could actually make a sound other than slurping.
"You do?" replied Sage and Anubis almost simultaneously.
"What is it?" asked Sekhmet, who really wasn't all that interested.
"Yeah, what is it? Tell us!" Mia urged, fidgeting nervously in her chair. Dais only sighed and looked up with a raised eyebrow.
"Well...*slurp*..we could always *sluurrp*..ya know, keep it..*slurp*..until we find its..*slurp*..parents..*slurp*..or raise it..*slurp*..until it can fend for itself..*slurp*" he replied, reaching for another orange soda from the refrigerator.
"Yeah! Let's do that!" Mia yelped enthusiastically. Ryo sighed. It was getting late and he was too tired to bother trying to argue anymore. He shot a glance at Dais, since the little creature seemed, so far, to like him best. He sighed, then said, "Allright...we can keep it...but only until we find its parents or until it can go on its own. Okay?"
"Yes!" Mia cheered, leaping out of her chair to hug Cale for coming up with the idea, then Ryo for agreeing. "Yes! Yaaaay!" And with that done, everyone who wasn't already standing got up and plodded wearily out of the kitchen toward their rooms. Greeting them in the living room was a very exasperated tiger and a yawning pink dragon. White Blaze looked pleadingly at Ryo, who gave a nod, allowing the tiger to flee upstairs to his bedroom, Ryo following. Kento and Rowen could already be heard snoring a few rooms away, and Sekhmet and Cale were quick to follow their lead. Mia skipped off to her room, after an unsuccessful attempt to coax the little creature to go along with her. Sage crept off to bed after saying 'good night,' Anubis and Cye close behind, one heading to bed down the hall, the other to the bathroom to wash up.
Dais was about to follow and head off to bed himself when he felt a tug on his pant leg. Looking down, he saw the little pink creature looking up at him with its big blue eyes. It squeaked, tugging on his pant leg a few more times. "You want to come with me?" he asked, though its only response was a squeak and a tug. He sighed, scooped up the cute little thing in his arms, and crept quietly up the stairs to his room. By the time he closed the door, the little reptile was sound asleep. "You're a cute little baby, aren't you.." Dais whispered, setting the little one down on a cushion near the bed. "Hm....baby...." he pondered a little while, then turned out the light and laid his head back on the pillow. He gave the little pink dragon a pat on the head, then turned over and went to sleep himself.
A/N: So, how was this chapter? ^__^ Did you like it? More to come (hopefully soon)! If you'd like a preview for the next chapter.......tough! You don't get one! Ha! Hahahahaha! HAHA! =P Anyway, don't forget to review! If you don't review, I won't post any more chapters! So...ha! ^__^
