The Curse

Six months later Brook smiled down at her three children. Paolo was next to her as he looked down at the triplets. They were all perfectly healthy.

So much for father's curse! She thought smugly.

A strange look then crossed Paolo's face as he reached down. "Hey... what's this?" He asked as he pulled something out from behind the youngest child. It was brown and fuzzy. "It... almost looks like..." He looked at Brook, slightly panicked. "Like a tail."

Brook's eyes rolled to the back of her head as she fainted.

------------------------------------------------------------

The three babies were placed on the floor in a line, Paolo and Brook across the room observing them.

The baby with the tail growled as his tail flicked from side to side. He began crawling across the room. He stopped beside a chair and pushed off the floor. He floated in the air for a moment before he was seated on the chair and he let out a laugh.

Brook sighed. "Okay, he flies." She whispered.

The one in the middle let out a sneeze and turned into a monkey. He sneezed again and turned into a puppy. He sneezed again and turned back into a baby.

Paolo looked uneasy. "Turns into animals."

The last one looked around the room until his gaze stopped at a chair pushed in the corner of the room. He blinked and it disappeared.

Brook cleared her throat. "And he makes things disappear."

Paolo looked at Brook. "It would appear Aziz's curse was real."

Brook felt her eyes fill with tears. "The babies are cursed for life... freaks... mutants!"

Paolo shook his head. "And it doesn't end there." He muttered. "Our grandchildren and great grandchildren are going to be cursed as well. Forever and ever."


A/N: Only the epilogue remains. Yes, there's an epilogue... although I do believe we went over this before... anyways, I'm hoping to have it posted in a day or so, because I'm going away for a week in 2 days, so I want it done before I leave.
