Whoooooooooo. Energy drinks rock...especially the night before my chem final! Heh, those o's look funny. I know I sound about drunk right now, but I'm really not...I think (unless they put alcohol in my drink...the bastards!) Anyhow, I promise this craziness won't reflect on the fic any, so don't worry! (slaps self)...okay, I'm a bit better now. Enjoy!

Polaris18: I know, don't you hate me for it? I kind of hate myself for it...

Travis: Why would you do that to me? I love you...starts crying

Me: I'm so sorry, cutie, I'll fix it!

Travis: Can I live with Eyes?

Me: Of course you can.

Travis: Yay!

Me: Heh...so cute. Nope, not immortal, just a bastard; you know how they can keep coming back. Hey, hey! No! My Kanone, back off!

Kanone: Chill, I'm yours, okay?

Me: Then what are you doing kissing her? (points to Polaris)

Kanone: Oh...that.

Me: Yeah, that.

Kanone: It's alright, I love you, I'm just using her.

Me: (blushes) okay. Aw, so close with the quote, but it was super cute chibi Kanone to uber cute chibi Eyes...you said ultra cute. Hmm, I suppose you were close enough, though, I'll give it to you, lol. Thanks for reviewing!

Answer: The quote was from super cute chibi Kanone to uber cute chibi Eyes (ultra cute chibi Eyes was also acceptable). The episode was Dry Eyes.

"What's your plan?" Eyes demanded as soon as they got to their new home.

Kanone smiled, "Relax, dear, getting all worked up will help nothing."

"I don't give a damn." Eyes growled, "Tell me what you have planned. Now."

Kanone lost his smile and replaced it with a frown, "It's simple really, just call the police on him. Tell them that he's abusing his son and you, as his brother, want custody."

Eyes thought it over, "My mother says that she's called the police on him several times." he reminded Kanone, "What difference would I make?"

Kanone bit his bottom lip, "Well, if we can get Travis to confess what his father is doing to him, then they should have no problem with locking him up long enough for you to gain custody." he pointed out.

Eyes nodded, "It's worth a shot." he finally decided.

Kanone smiled once more, "Good. Then there's only one thing left to do." Eyes got his hint and pulled out his phone, dialing 911.

A half hour later, flashing lights and men in uniform were outside of Eyes' childhood home. The boy himself had rushed over as soon as he was off the phone, leaving Kanone to explain the situation to the others. One of the officers walked up to the door, and knocked briefly. A moment of silence passed until the door opened to reveal a small, frightened green-eyed boy, "Hello?" he asked, looking at all the strangers, his brother being blocked from his sight.

"Are you Travis?" the officer asked.

"Umm...yes." Travis replied, watching the officer warily.

"Is your father home?"

"Not again." Travis whispered, and reluctantly nodded, "Yes."

The officer kneeled down in front of Travis, placing a few fingers under his chin to move his head, attempting to get a better look at the very obvious bruise on the small child's cheek, "How did this happen?"

"I...I fell." Travis lied, "I was running too fast, and I tripped." All of a sudden, Eyes appeared by the officer's side, and Travis brightened as he saw his brother, "Eyes!" he cried, clinging once more to the older brother.

Eyes smiled softly as he stooped down to lift Travis up, "Are you alright?" he asked, worry evident in his usually calm voice. Travis hesitated before nodding; he didn't want Eyes worrying about him. The older one ran his thumb over the bruise, "What really happened?" he asked.

"I told you...I fell." Travis repeated, hating lying to Eyes. He didn't want to upset his father anymore than he already had, though.

"It's alright, you can tell me." Eyes assured him, "No one can hurt you while I'm here, and I'm not going anywhere."

Travis bit his lip before looking up into Eyes' reassuring blue orbs, "You promise?"

The latter smirked, "Would I lie to you?"

Thinking only a second, Travis shook his head vigorously, smiling, "No."

Eyes' smile returned, "Exactly. Now, tell me what happened." He saw Travis glance to the police officer next to them, "Hey." he said, grabbing the boy's attention once more, "Tell me what happened, don't worry about them."

"You saw." Travis whispered, "He hit me."

Eyes nodded and kissed him on the tip of his nose, "See, that wasn't so hard, was it?" Travis shook his head, silver hair flying wildly. Eyes glanced to the police officer, "You heard that?" The officer nodded in confirmation, "That's enough, then, all you needed to keep him away from Travis?"

The officer sighed, "It's enough to take him away for tonight, but a judge will have the final say." he informed Eyes.

"And what about placing Travis into my custody?"

"Once again, you'll need to attend a custody hearing. Until that time, Travis will remain here with his mother."

Eyes glared, "What if he comes back, though, before the hearing?" he asked, meaning Brad.

"With the evidence that we have hear tonight, I'd say it would take a pretty messed up judge not to lock this bastard up."

Eyes smirked slightly, "Alright." he agreed, then turned his attention to his mother and father, who were walking outside that very moment, the latter in handcuffs being read his rights. No words were spoken as he passed his two sons, but Brad glared at Eyes, and Travis clung to his brother tighter, taking refuge in his arms.

Katrina sighed as she watched her husband being carted away once again, and nodded as the officer went through the courses of action she could supposedly take to make sure this type of thing didn't happen again; nothing she hadn't heard before, though. Once everyone was gone, save Katrina and her two sons, the former looked to the older Blade Child, "What do you think you're going to accomplish by doing this? He'll be back tomorrow, even more pissed off than usual."

Eyes glared at her, "I don't know what you expect to gain by doing nothing while that sick bastard beats you and my brother on a daily basis, but I won't stand for it." he replied, "I'm having a custody hearing held to get guardianship of Travis."

"What?" Katrina asked, wide-eyed, "You can't do that!"

"You'd rather keep him here, suffering?" Eyes asked her, despising the woman he was forced to call family, "What kind of monster are you?"

"That's quite ironic, you calling me a monster." she said, laughing, "I'll be damned if I'll allow him to become involved with the Blade Children. Your kind of life is too dangerous for him to be around."

"You're a hypocrite, you know that?" came a voice that Eyes recognized all too well. He turned, smiling a little, and was suprised to see his lover's twin there.

"Where's Kanone?" he asked.

"Couldn't make it, I'm filling in on a temporary basis." Kalelle replied, laughing. He then turned his attention back to Katrina, "What kind of mother are you, who would put her child in this kind of situation and, when given the opportunity, not allow him a chance at a better life?"

"Who are you?" she asked, glaring a little, "Another Blade Child?"

"Not exactly." he replied, "Just a friend of the family."

"Family?" she scoffed, "What family?"

"Well, the Blade Children, obviously." Kalelle informed her.

"The Blade Children aren't a family, just a group of misfits who somehow found each other." she replied.

"Well, they are misfits," Kalelle agreed, laughing once again at Eyes' glare, "but there are others that aren't Blade Children. We all live together, and we're closer to each other than we are to any of our real family. Well, besides Kanone and I, but we're a special case."

"You're special all right." Eyes muttered, "Was there a purpose for you coming here? Did Kanone send you?"

"Of course. He was busy explaining the concept of a younger brother to Kousuke. That fool doesn't understand a damn thing, I swear."

Eyes glanced down to Travis, worried that he shouldn't be hearing such language, to find that he had fallen asleep in Eyes' arms, chin resting on his shoulder. He smiled softly, finding himself doing that a lot around the younger one. Katrina glared at the affection, "I would like my son back now." she said, extending her arms for the younger one.

Eyes glared at her slightly, but walked over and handed Travis to her, nontheless. Brad wouldn't be back tonight either way, and Eyes made a mental note to stop by here first thing in the morning. He was busy unlatching Travis' arms from around his neck when green eyes snapped open at all the movement. He looked from Eyes to his mother, then back. In a flash he was latched back onto Eyes, sending the older one stumbling back from the force of a body being hurled into his, "I want to stay with Eyes." he stated, nuzzling his head under said boy's chin.

Katrina recovered from the shock of being the base that Travis pushed off of in order to fling himself at Eyes, "No." she said, firmly, "Travis, I won't allow you to go with him."

"But I want to!" Travis said, stubbornly, "Why can't I stay with him? He is my brother."

"And I'm your mother." Katrina countered, "You're staying here and that's final."

Travis looked to Eyes who attempted a smile for his sake, but was failing miserably at it, "I'll be by first thing tomorrow." he assured his younger brother.

After thinking it over, Travis nodded, "Alright." he said, a bit sadly. Upon his request, Eyes crouched down to set him on his feet, "I'll see you tomorrow." he whispered, giving Eyes one more quick hug.

Eyes ruffled his silver hair, "Don't worry, I won't leave you alone with him again." he promised.

Travis smiled and nodded, "I know you won't." he said.

"Come on, Travis." Katrina said, having moved to the door, "You need to get to sleep."

Travis said nothing to his mother, angry with her for not letting him go with Eyes, "Bye." he said as he turned to head inside.

"Bye." Eyes whispered, turning also to head back home with Kalelle.

Wow, so...Katrina. Bitch. She has her reasons, though, and it's not just because Eyes is a Blade Child. Well, it is, but there's more to it than that. If you read carefully, you might be able to figure it out. Anyway, here's the next quote:

"I've always tried to guide you. So don't...Don't leave me all alone."

a)Blind Spot in the Web

b)The Sound of A Breaking Heart

c)Moving Targets

d)Manor of Death

I love the conversation this quote came from, it is quite sad, though. Good luck!
