Aprilangel413: Hi this is chapter 4. It's only been a few weeks and Alex is out of the wheel chair and back on his feet.
Disclaimer: I don't own gargoyles but I do own Fiona.
Alex's Room
Fiona walked in and saw her best friend asleep on his couch. She could not pass up a chance like this. Fiona grabbed a marker and was about to place it on his face when he snapped awake. Alex snatched her wrists and flipped herover. They were now rolling around on the floor laughing.
"I give, I give."
Alex let go of Fiona and helped her up.
"You got closer this time."
"I will get you one day. And when I do you will have a purple mustache."
They were silent for a minute then Alex walked out of the room. Fiona just stared at the doorway waiting for him to return. Fiona did not like to be alone and ran out after him. Alex was at the other end of the hall smirking at the half gargoyle.
"You know me too well."
Alex walked down the hall to where Fiona was standing. They put their arms around each other and walked to the dinning room. Alex walked up to the couch and dropped himself on to it. Fiona looked around and realized that her sister and Broadway were missing. She sat down next to Alex and elbowed him in the stomach. He turned to her and she whispered into his ear.
"The lovebirds aren't here."
Though Angela and Broadway weren't the only ones in love around the castle the kids didn't like to think of their parents as lovebirds. The thought was too disturbing to them.
"Should we go search for them?"
"Yes."
The two got up and left the room.
About an hour later
Alex and Fiona walked down one of the many halls on their home. They had just "overheard" a conversation between the lovebirds that they really could have done with out.
FLASH BACK
Angela and Broadwayhad walked into a room and lft the door a crack open. Alex and Fiona had their backs against the wall straining to hear the conversation. After a few seconds the gargoyles on the other side of the door stopped whispering and spoke in an average volume. Apparently Angela had just been beating around the bush and was just now getting to her point.
"We choose each other to be mates a while ago. We have not done anything yet. I want that to change."
"You mean you want to have an egg."
"Yes I want to be a mother, and you to be my hatchling's father."
Then the room was silent, Fiona and Alex could not believe what they had just heard. They ran from their spotsand decided to head back to Alex's room. And that's what happened. There was no way they could keep this to them selves. They needed to tell someone. That's when Fiona looked at the clock.
"Ten minutes past sunrise."
"Should we even bother to make a video?"
"No. Lets just go visit Demona, I mean Dominique."
"Are we gonna tell her."
"Of course, but make sure we have a clear path tothe exit."
"Good idea."
Nightstone Unlimited Headquarters
Dominique was sitting at her desk. Her friends had failed to show up.
"It was only a matter of time."
She stood up and began to pace. Maybe they got lost, or couldn't leave the castle. Or maybe they weren't coming ever again. She sat down and began doing some paper work. There was a knock at her door and she looked up.
"Come in."
The door opened and it was the munchkins. Dominique jumped up and was about to embrace the young ones when she realized what she was doing.
"Where were you?"
Fiona walked over to the couch and took a load off. Alex just stared at her and then at the women in front of him.
"Big news."
"And it has to do with Angela."
Dominique's eyes went wide as the children began to use their information as leverage. Alex's Xanatos blood began to show, as the bargaining stakes got higher. Finally Fiona couldn't take it any more.
"Shut up! You two are acting like children, Alex you have an excuse but Demona your over one thousand years old. Here's the deal, we tell you the big news and keep you updated with one video a week."
Fiona glared at her two friends she was sick of their arguing even if it was just to make a deal.
"Everybody happy."
Dominique and Alex nodded their heads. Neither of them had seen Fiona angry before and to be honest it was frightening. They all sat down and Alex began to talk.
"Is Angela hurt?"
"No, no nothing like that."
"Then what's this big news?"
"We over heard Angela and Broadway talking today. Angela was talking about their relationship when she switched that topic to having kids. She's gonna do it."
Dominique had gotten some coffee and sipped it before Alex said this. She immediately did a spit take after the words left his mouth. Luckily she missed Fiona who had expected as much. She quickly grabbed the coffee from the women's hands so she wouldn't lose any more of it. Alex waved his hands in front of her face to try and get her attention.
"Are you ok?"
"She's in shock Alex. We should leave before she comes out of it."
"Ok then."
They both walked towards the door and turned before exiting.
"Bye."
"Nice see'n ya."
They walked up to the roof and took off.
"What a night."
"Hey I just realized something."
"What?"
"I'm gonna be an aunt."
"And this new kid is gonna look up to us."
"It's gonna be awesome not being the baby in the family."
"And to boss someone else around."
They arrived back at the castle and went to their rooms. Since they became friends with Demona they had been missing some sleep and tried to catch up through out the day. Tomorrow Fiona had another fighting lesson as Alex would have a magic lesson. This way they could spend the time they didn't spend sleeping, with each other. They liked to spend time together. The next night they would find out exactly what was going on between Angela and Broadway.
Fiona flew down the hallway and took a sharp left. Her half sister copied her movement and was gaining fast. The older gargoyle was a much faster flyer then her sister and the only reason that she wasn't dead yet was because she knew the castle better then anyone else. (Not counting Alex) Finally she was able to tackle her to the ground. They were in one of the courtyards now, giving them much room to fight. Now Angela had Fiona pinned to the ground and had her sharp elbow at the girl's throat.
"Why were you listening?"
"We overheard you a day ago. Congratulations by the way."
"You heard us."
"Yeah."
Angela shoved her elbow closer to the girl's throat.
"What did you hear?"
"You want a child and you want Broadway to be the father."
"What else?"
"You guys did something last night and you're very happy now. Until you heard me and Alex that is."
"That's all?"
"That's all."
Angela got off her sister and helped her up. Noticing a few bruises that were forming because of her.
"I'm sorry we listened in on you guys."
"It's ok, it's not like it could stay a secret forever."
"I won't tell anyone.And don't think Alex could hear, you closed the door this time."
"Why."
"Because even though I don't value privacy now I know I will later."
Angela squeezed her sister tight then released her.
"Thank you."
"Not a problem, what are sister's for?"
They walked down the hall back to the room that Angela and Broadway had been talking in. When they arrived they found Alex in a headlock, complimentary of Broadway. Once the blue gargoyle caught sight of his mate he let go of the boy.
"I'm sorry, but he was eavesdropping on us."
"I know."
"And she was in on it too."
"I know."
"And your arm is around her."
"I forgive them, you should too."
He turned to the children.
"I forgive you."
"Thanks."
"So we agree that this doesn't leave the room?"
"Yeah but you owe us."
"We owe each other."
They agreed not to tell anyone until Angela started to show with egg. And when that happened then the happy couple would tell the clan. Of course Alex and Fiona were planning to keep Demona updated on all the activities involving her daughter and soon to be grandchild.
