A/N: This chapter will give away more clues as to the identity of the Other Family of Doom. But I won't reveal the name just yet.

This chapter will have what you have all been waiting for...Mrs. Manjoume's point of view!

Just a quick note for the whole fic: When people are speaking Japanese, it will be in regular type. English will be in italics.

P.S. I said not to give away the guess...fortunately, it was incorrect. Just remember next time to just say whether you think you know or not-don't give away the guess!

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

After driving for a couple of hours, Mr. and Mrs. Manjoume decided to stop at a rest area. They had bought a complete picnic dinner at the airport, so there was no need for a restaurant.

It was at this rest stop that Mrs. Manjoume found out the hard way that her precious Jun was not potty trained.

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

Well, THIS was a wonderful situation.

It had to be the fault of that lazy nanny. Yes, that was it! Mrs. Manjoume was confident that Jun could learn things like this. It was DEFINITELY Iori's fault for not bothering to teach him!

Well, Iori would have to wait until they got back. Now, Mrs. Manjoume had to change the diaper by herself. How could she do that when she couldn't even figure out how to work the changing table?

Poor Jun. Unless he snuck off to change himself, he had worn the same diaper since they left Japan the day before. Mrs. Manjoume was so overwhelmed by shame that she shouted out loud, "I'M A HORRIBLE PARENT!"

The other occupants of the ladies' room stared at this, but decided not to intervene.

Mrs. Manjoume looked to Jun so she could apologize to him and promise to buy him lots of candy.

But Jun was gone!

Mrs. Manjoume started to hyperventilate, getting ready to scream again, when a soft voice said, "I think this is your son?"

Mrs. Manjoume turned around.

Jun was safe! He hadn't fallen down a hole or drowned or gotten eaten by monkeys!

Mrs. Manjoume was so relieved, she didn't even notice that the speaker was speaking in Japanese. If she had had her wits about her, she would have thought this a strange coincidence.

The toddler in question was in the arms of one of the most strange-looking women Mrs. Manjoume had ever seen.

The woman was young; probably twenty-five or even younger. She was dressed in white from head to toe, complete with veil. Fortunately, the veil was flipped up so that Mrs. Manjoume could see her face. But it really didn't matter what this woman looked like, not when she had saved Jun from certain peril!

To make the moment even better, the woman even volunteered to teach Mrs. Manjoume to change a diaper.

"I'm sorry; I just couldn't help but see that you needed some tips," she explained.

It was only after they were done, and Mrs. Manjoume had thanked the mystery woman dozens of times, that she finally thought to ask how such a young woman had acquired such good child-rearing skills.

The woman introduced herself as Akane. She was apparently a nanny working for a wealthy Japanese family, much like Jun's nurse Iori. She had been put in charge of the younger of the family's two children, who was four. Apparently, she and the little girl had formed a strong bond over the years.

Mrs. Manjoume replied that there was no way that this girl could be cuter than her Jun, and a good-natured debate started between the two women as they walked out of the restroom.

Eventually, they had to go their separate ways. Akane's employers wanted to move on as quickly as possible.

The two were just saying their goodbyes when Mr. Manjoume appeared seemingly out of nowhere. He looked like he had seen a ghost.

"Get away from that woman! She works for THEM!" he nearly screamed.

Mrs. Manjoume opened her mouth to scold her husband for having such terrible manners, but Akane cut in.

"It's perfectly fine. I'm used to this sort of thing by now..."

It was hard to tell if she was mad or not. Her face remained expressionless.

And then, just as suddenly as Akane had appeared, she was gone.

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

No one in the Manjoume family said anything else until they reached the hotel where they would rest for the night.

Jun was so tired, he curled up on the hotel room floor and went to sleep. Chosaku and Shoji reverted to sulking and gaming, respectively.

Mr. Manjoume finally spoke to his wife.

"I'm sorry for what I did at the rest stop.." he began.

Mrs. Manjoume managed to keep her anger mostly in check and replied with, "She was a nice woman. There was no need to be so rude!"

Mr. Manjoume moved closer and whispered, "Don't you see? I was scared for you and Jun. You've heard the stories about that family. They are all notorious for not being right in the head!"

"But she's not even a member of the family! She was a servant."

"Nevertheless...she could be a spy. They could have sent her to see what we're up to."

"I told you before, they are just another family going on vacation. And besides, you know I've met them all at parties before. They seemed perfectly normal to me."

"They're good actors."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Everyone knows that none of those people are normal. Their older kid is five and likes to read Freud and meditate! Does that sound the least bit normal to you?"

"Six in October..."

"All right, fine, six in October! My point still stands."

"It's a phase. He's just a kid."

"They're all just kids at first. Then they grow up and form alliances with the yakuza. Not to mention spending all their money on those harems they're so fond of..."

Mrs. Manjoume could not believe that her husband had used the word "harem" in front of the children!

Before Mr. Manjoume could get into even more graphic detail, she interrupted him by saying, "Wow, it's getting late! We should all go to bed now! Kids, get ready for bed please!"

And that was the end of that. For the time being, at least...

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

A/N: The good stuff will start next chapter! At least, I think so.

So...have anybody's suspicions been confirmed? Changed? I am curious at how good I am at giving away just the right amount.

As before, don't say who you think they are in the review. If you really want to share your guess, PM me.
