Chapter 3: New kids?
The days were getting cooler, for fall was coming around the corner. Billy finished shopping for food and baby stuff for Kita. She then put away all the groceries into the car that the guys made for her a while back. She had to hurry home so that she could feed Kita, but she had trouble trying to get the heavy things into the car. But then, a green hand held that bag for her, Billy looked to see who it was. It was a young shark-boy. His eyes were soft; one of them was a shark eye, and the other a human eye. His skin was green with yellow shredded stripes, and he was pretty tall for his age. "Do you need help Madame?' he asked her, Billy was a bit surprised to see another shark, but then she smiled warmly to him. "Yes actually, can you help me get all the heavy stuff into the car?" She asked him, the boy nodded. "Of course Madame, it's my pleasure to help." He said to her, he then grabbed 5 of the heaviest bags and put them into the car. "You sure are strong, how old are you? If you don't mind me asking." She asked, the boy looked at her and smiled. "I'm six years old, and my name is Devin." He said, Billy smiled. "That's a really nice name. I have a cousin named Devin back in Spain; he's a trouble maker though." She said with a giggle. Devin laughed with her a bit as well.
"Thank you so much for helping me, I owe you." She said, Devin shook his head. "You don't owe me a thing, Madame. It was my pleasure helping you." He said kindly, Billy then gave him a hug. "Thank you, again." She said, the boy nodded and smiled. Billy went into her car and drove off back to home. Devin stood there as he watched her drive off, his soft smile, went into an evil smirk. "One down, four to go." He said evilly.
Ripster and the other sharks were at the lair taking care of Kita, Slammu had Kita on his skateboard and gently pushing her around the whole building. Kita giggled, and then Slammu tripped and fell on his face. Kita kept rolling away, Jab went chasing after her. Ripster chuckled as he watched his brothers playing with Kita; he then heard a knock on the door. Ripster got up from his chair and went to the door. "Wonder who it is." He asked himself, he then opened the door, but saw nothing. He shrugged his shoulders and closed the door. "Hey!" He heard, he opened the door again and looked down this time. He saw the boy was a shark just like him, only white as snow, his eyes red as apples, and his smile was warm and welcoming. "Hello, can I help you, son?" He asked the boy, the boy nodded. "Yes, I got separated from my family, and I need to borrow a phone. Is it ok if I use yours?" He asked gently, Ripster smiled and nodded. "Of course you can, please come in." He said as let the boy in. "My name is Husky, if you were wondering." He said to Ripster. "Husky? That's a nice yet strange name." he said to the boy, Husky turned around and smiled. "I know, it's a name my father gave to me. He said it was his father's name." Husky stated, he then looked for the phone. "Oh, the phone is right over here." Ripster said as he then gave him the phone. Husky gently took the phone and then dialed the number. "Hello?...yes, it's me…I got lost…ok…ok, I'll meet you there…yes…yes I did…Ok, see you soon. Goodbye." He said as he then hung up the phone. "Thank you so much for letting me use the phone, I now know where they are." He said softly, Ripster patted his head. "No problem, Husky." He said, Ripster then turned around to see Kita rolling their way, she was giggling. "Oh my god!" He yelled as he then caught her, Husky looked at Kita and smiled. "Is that your baby? She's so precious." He said as he walked up to them. "Yes, this is Kita. She's our new member of the family." He said, Kita looked at Husky in the eyes. His eyes glittered a bit, but then his eyes that were so soft, went sharp as a needle. Kita flinched, and then started crying. "Hey, what's wrong angel?" He asked her as he held her close. "I better go back to my family, thank you for letting me use the phone." He said as he headed out of the lair. Ripster was a bit confused at the boy, but he had to take care of Kita. "Shhh~ don't cry angel, daddy's here~" He said, he gently patted her back as she calmed down a bit.
Husky was walking down the street smiling to himself, he then saw Devin right ahead of him. Devin saw him as well; they both stopped in front of each other. "So Bro, did you do your part?" Said Devin. "Scourge, my brother. Not only did I do my part, I saw the baby. She was so small and precious I wanted to eat her~" he said. "Holy shit! Are you serious!? You lucky bitch! Tell me everything Phantom!" Said Devin…no, Scourge was his real name, and as for Husky, his real name was Phantom. "Do not worry my brother, I will tell you everything when we get back home." He said with a smirk, Scourge smirked as well. "Can't wait." Scourge said evilly. They're eyes glowed brightly, as they both headed home.
Hours later the sharks were at home goofing around with Kita, Billy was in the kitchen making dinner for all of them. Ripster came behind her and hugged her close to him. "Something smells good~" He said, Billy giggled. "I'm making something my mom used to cook for me, so you boys better eat it." She said playfully, Ripster kissed her cheek. "I will, not sure if the guys will eat it….what are you making?" he asked, Billy showed him what she was making. "It's spinach filled pasta my mom used to make for me." She said, Ripster's face went from smiling, to frowning. He hated anything green; he tried his best to smile for her. "T-that sounds great babe, can't wait to try it." He said, Billy smiled to him and kept cooking. "Did I just hear the word Spinach!?" Shouted Streex. "Yes, and you boys are going to try it." She said with a serious tone. Streex then made a gagging gesture, which made Billy throw a pan to his head. "You will eat my cooking! It won't kill you to try something new, you pansies!" She shouted, Streex was on the ground in pain from the hit of the pan. "Oh crud, Ripster. Before I forget…umm…my mom, wants to see us again." She said with nervously, Ripster looked at her a bit worried. "Okay, that shouldn't be a problem, right?" He asked, Billy tried her best to smile to him. "It's not my mom you should worry about…it's my grandmother." She said, Ripster held her shoulders gently. "I'm sure everything will be just fine." He said smiling to her, Billy was still worried though. "You're right, it'll be okay." She said feeling a bit better. Kita looked at her mother and saw the expression she made, she may have been a baby but she knew something wasn't right.
Billy was still nervous of what was to come next weekend.
