Chapter 6
Dinner in Medea's household
"You do know that crying over something in the past that you couldn't control is very pathetic," said Sharvani as she lead Medea and Keiko down the hall to a dining room at the end of the hall and to the left door. Inside was a yellow room with a table and six chairs one had a booster seat. On the table was a large salad with what appeared to be a small side of tofu. Before Medea could respond with a comeback that only a sister can say an adult woman with brown black hair that was streaked gray trimmed to the base of her neck enter a door to the right of the room that apparently lead to the kitchen. Her eyes were like Sharvani's, a deep Blue. The woman stood to be five feet and eight and a half inches tall. She was wearing jeans and a green tee shirt.
"Medea, will you to please set the table." The woman said with a soft voice. "Sharvani could you please get the water."
"Sure Mom." Medea said as she walked past her mom and entered the kitchen. Blackie who was willing to help dashed in after Medea.
"Okay Mom," said Sharvani with no interest. But she muttered "Why do I get the weird chores when we eat at the table for once."
"Hi my name is Uma," said Medea and Sharvani's mother turning to Keiko and talking slowly to give Keiko her message.
"My name is Keiko," said Keiko speaking in Japanese with out thinking.
Uma looked at Keiko with a puzzled expression. Keiko repeated her self in accented English.
Uma smiled the smile mother's make for their children making Keiko feel right at home.
Keiko paused for a moment and realized that Medea and Sharvani shared a strange bond it felt like petting a soft mammal woven with the irritating sounds of nails on a chalk board or at least that was what the sensation felt like. Uma was giving the feeling of warmth and shelter and it also felt like a barrier was protecting her, and this sensation was bonded to her offspring.
Medea reentered the dining room with plates and sliver ware Blackie was carrying a few glasses with both his forepaws and wings. The teenaged girl laid the silver ware on the table while she laid the plates in front of the chair. Blackie placed the glasses on a corner and started to collect the silverware and drop them on the plates with a glass on top.
Sharvani also reentered with a clear glass pitcher of water.
"Blackie could you go get Peter please," Uma asked the little fuzz ball after he was done with the eating utensils.
"Okay!" Blackie yipped like and over excited puppy and dashed out of the room.
"He's pretty excited, it must be you Keiko." Said Medea.
"Dinner is served!" Keiko heard Blackie sing to some one in the living room like this was a Broadway show only it was slightly off key.
Blackie reentered running on all for paws and rushed up to his chair the one with the booster seat.
A tall six-foot man entered from the hallway. He wore a read tee shirt and jeans. His hair was blond and his eyes were light blue.
"What are you waiting for? Lets have dinner." He said in a deep voice.
Keiko felt another sensation; this time there wasn't much to sense. He had a bond with Uma and an image of a gold ring was showing in Keiko's mind and disappeared. The sensation was like that between him and Uma. But he also was sharing the same bond with Uma with the two girls. He must be Medea and Sharvani's father.
"Spoons... how on earth am I suppose to eat a salad with spoons." Said Sharvani breaking Keiko's focus. "Blackie did you set the silverware again?"
"Yep!" Blackie said in a proud and happy tone.
Medea smiled as she took a sip of water and made a face like she was drinking the most sour, bitter, and salty substance in the universe. The grimace didn't go unnoticed.
"Medea are you okay?" Uma said in a fearful tone that made someone else think the water was poisoned.
Medea swallowed the water and turned to Sharvani.
"Did you make this water sis?" Medea said in a disgusted tone. Keiko felt a stab of confusion. What did Medea mean by make the water?
"Yeah I tried to make it that fancy mineral water and as you can see I failed miserably." Sharvani said with some sarcasm in the final three words.
"Why couldn't you use the tap instead? Why do you have to use your powers when not even I can?" Uma asked her daughter.
"Mom I'll need the practice." Sharvani replied. "Anyway why do you make dinner such a big deal every time we have company I mean very other day we have dinner in the living room."
Medea and her dad exchanged glances and just shook their heads.
"They debate at dinner every day. Today it's water tomorrow... who knows." Medea muttered to Keiko in their private langue. What startled Keiko the most was not that she under stood what Medea said but she could understand English as well as Japanese.
After dinner in the Jorryn House hold, Uma sent the girls to do the dishes while Blackie put the leftovers away, or at least he was suppose to.
"Evil doers beware because Salad man, and his sidekick Cucumber Boy are going to give you good doers the vitamins and minerals to grow strong!" Blackie said as if he was playing pretend or playing with action figures with a peace of lettuce in one paw and a slice of cucumber in the other.
Medea shook her head she didn't know if she should scold Blackie for playing with food when he was suppose to be doing his chores, say that he's been hanging with too many health freaks, or encourage his blooming creativity
"Oh no! It's the evil Doctor Hamburger! Here to clog your Arteries! Salad Man, Cucumber boy Away!" Blackie said as he sent the vegetables flying across the room. Salad man landed grace fully on the floor while Cucumber boy crashed into the wall, slid to the floor and collapsed when he got there.
"Oh, no Cucumber Boy!" Blackie shouted as he opened his wings and flew to the cucumber's resting spot. "Cucumber Boy, speak to me! Wait a minute you can't speak can you?"
Medea decided to step in. shaking her head Medea said gently"Blackie you can play later but cucumbers and salads are meant for eating, not playing. So lets put the leftovers away, okay?"
"Okay, okay." Blackie said in defeat and stared to move the salad in to a plastic baggie.
"Medea?" Keiko asked "Why did you take me to your home? Why didn't you leave me in the ally?"
Medea sighed. "I had no idea what would happen if I did leave you there or if Pulsero would come back to finish ' the job'. Even if his slave wasn't me he could still take over the universe. That has always been his dream and he will never stop until he has accomplished the dream. But he will never leave me out of this I still have the power to stop him even if he is stronger than me he can't do it when his fellow goddess refuses him to do so that is my lot in life and I am content with that."
"Alas, the world is so cruel that it makes me toil away while you two gossip..." Sharvani said drawing attention to her self as she did a dramatic pose of an actress in theater.
It was midnight in Japan when they walked down the dunes to the shore. It was dark but the moon gave a glow in the clouds. The cold temperature sent a chill down anyone's spine. Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama and Hiei stopped to stand on the sand and faced the indigo sea. They stood for what seemed like hours squeezed into two seconds when Kuwabara saw something move out in the sand. It turned out to be a crab.
Kurama was holding a waterproof suitcase to hold anything they might need in America like spare clothing and such. Yusuke was losing his already short patience and Hiei just stood there with his hands in his pockets.
The surface of the water off shore began to bubble, and turquoise light begin to start under water like an underwater spotlight, and the bubbles begin to form into the shape of a woman with long hair.
The light moved up from the surface and in a flash as it broke the surface and Donamarine stood where the bubbles were there moments before. The Water seemed to support her like she was standing on solid ground.
"Alright Boys, are you ready?" the Goddess asked
Jorryn is Medea's last name.
