Emily was sitting on the doctors table, starring at the pink and white stuffed panda bear that was across from her. Murdoc sat in a chair that was along the wall of the doctor's room starring at Emily. "It's not gonna hurt ya babe" Murdoc told her with a big smirk on his face. Then the door came in and popped a thermometer under Emily's chubby armpit to take her temperature. "Mr. Niccals, I'm going to prescribe Emily on some medication that will suppress the seizures so she can live at home." Murdoc just nodded, really that's all he wanted to do; bring her home. "But there will be some significant side effects" Murdoc shifted into his seat a little. "What kind of side effects are we talk'n about Doc?" Murdoc asked. The doctor reached over and took the thermometer from under Em's arm. He smiled gently. She had no fever. "Well, the medicine will cause major fatigue, sluggish movements if you will, lots and lots of sleep…" the doctor was interrupted. "She sleeps a lot anyway; I think I can deal with that." Murdoc put his two cents in. "Good, because there will be plenty of that…but the bad side effect will be significant weight gain. The fatigue will cause her metabolism to decrease greatly, and with the sleepy, sluggish activity; she will pack on the pounds. I think that is the only thing we will have to really monitor." the doctor replied. Murdoc nodded "I would rather have a fat kid, then one with seizures" Murdoc stated sternly. "I think we would all prefer that" the doctor shook hands with Murdoc. "She is free to go." "Thank you so much for help'n meh lil' one Doc" Murdoc shook his hand firmly. "Please don't thank me Mr. Niccals, she's a fighter, but she's gonna need you." The doctor replied. Murdoc picked up the baby and kissed her all over her face, causing her to giggle, and coo. Both the doctor and the family walked to the lobby where 2-D was to bring them home.
"Hello Emily Rose, are ya feel'n better?" asked 2-D with a warm toothless grin, as her stroked her chubby face. "Good, she doesn't have a fever" he said to Murdoc this time. When 2-D went to stroke her face again, she started to cry. "Face ache! What did ya do?" Murdoc yelled while making a scene. "I don't know!...I mean I just…I…" before 2-D could finish, "YOU!...KEYS… NOW!" Murdoc yelled with his hand out. 2-D threw the keys to him. Then Murdoc brushed past, tossed the stuffed panda bear to him, and smacked the side of his head. "I didn't do anything…hey Muds I'm start'n to think…." 2-D was rudely interrupted. "Woah! Dullard..you can think?" Murdoc busted up in laughter. 2-D didn't get it at first hugging the stuffed bear and he started to laugh with him, then it hit him." Huh?...hey! Wait!...no…I'm start'n to think that Emily doesn't like meh." 2-D was able to finish. "Smart girl, can ya tell she's mine" Murdoc said as he placed her in her car seat, "Give meh that!" Murdoc yelled and snatched the bear back to give it to the baby to cuddle with on the ride home, and kissed her on the forehead then 2-D and himself jumped into the jeep. "No Dullard, she doesn't hate ya, she just isn't used to being around ya yet." Murdoc replied nicely. 2-D just starred at him. Murdoc never reassures him at all. It kind of scared him. "What the fuck are ya starring at?" Murdoc asked sternly. "I don't know" 2-D replied as he continued to stare at him. "Well cut it out, yer creep'n meh out Dullard." Murdoc said loudly. 2-D continued to stare as if he was in a trance. "DULLARD!" Murdoc yelled. "AHH! Sorry zoned out for a sec." 2-D jumped from his seat. "Fucking moron..." Murdoc said under his breath.
Back at Kong, Noodle and Russel wanted to do something nice for Em's home coming. Noodle painted a nice pink and yellow cloth banner to hang in the door way of the lobby. Russel sat on the floor blowing up balloons with his massive breath. There must have been 75 balloons in the lobby all of them pink and pale yellow. Russel had also baked a cake for her which read "Welcome Home Emily Rose" in the white and purple frosting. "Oh, I'm so excited Russel-san! Our family will all be home again!" Noodle screeched with joy. "Me too baby girl, me too" Russel stated with a nod. Everything was set. Noodle looked out the window impatiently. Then she saw the jeep come up the hill to the car park "Here they come!" Noodle yelled with joy, her and Russel ran behind the couch. 2-D was aware of the surprise; he jumped from the car and ran up to the door. "Way to be courteous and wait for the rest of us ya ass." Murdoc stated, and then he got out of the car, and went to pick up Emily. She had fallen asleep on the ride home. Her face was cuddled up to the stuffed bear. Murdoc couldn't help but smile. He stroked the side of her face, in her deep sleep; she shifted her cuddling from the bear to her Daddy's hand, laying her chubby face in his palm. "Come on Princess" Murdoc whispered with a big grin revealing his green teeth. He gently picked her up with the stuffed panda; she rested her face on his shoulders, and he walked up to the lobby doors.
2-D hurried inside with Murdoc close behind to avoid the flesh eating zombies roaming outside; as he entered Noodle and Russel popped up from the couch "Surprise! Welcome Home Emily!!!" Russel and Noodle yelled with 2-D a little out of sync with them about two words behind (so it sounded like a weak echo) From all the yelling Em woke up and started to cry. "Great, ya startled her" Murdoc grumbled and carried her into the kitchen. "Did we do the wrong thing?" Noodle asked as she looked up at Russel. "No, we didn't babe, we didn't know she would be asleep" Russel reassured as he rubbed her back. They then joined Murdoc and Em in the kitchen. Murdoc sat in a chair at the table and rocked Emily to calm her down. "Shh, sweetheart, its okay, daddy's here." He told her. "Face ache, get that bottle of medicine out of her bag" Murdoc ordered. 2-D, being the faithful pet man thingy he was did what he was told. The bottle was a light green with a white cap. "Murdoc-san, what is that?" asked a curious Noodle as she sat on the other side of the table. "This is the baby's anti-seizure medicine" Murdoc stated as he reached for a spoon to feed it to his daughter. "She has to take one teaspoon three times a day before her meal." Murdoc poured some onto the spoon; it was a dark green, and gooey. "Hope she has a strong stomach" replied Russel as he munched on a tuna and pickle sandwich. "How did your make sandwich so fast, it hasn't even been 30 seconds?" asked Murdoc. "Huh…" with that Russel ran from the kitchen, so he didn't have to answer that question. "Sweet Satan…" Murdoc whispered to himself. He put the spoon up to Em's face; she took it generously and swallowed. "Good girl! That went better than I thought it would" Murdoc said aloud to himself. "Noodle be a doll and fetch meh some apple sauce" Murdoc asked. Noodle skipped over to the fridge and can back with a jar of apple sauce. "Thanks Luv" Murdoc smiled at her. Emily ate her lunch contently. "Good, it's good to see her eat, after the last time with the apple sauce falling out of her mouth, it's a relieve." Murdoc said to himself. With a full belly Emily was getting drowsy, and started to nod off during the last part of her feeding. "Well, I guess that means she's full" Noodle said to Murdoc. "Yeah, nap time squirt" Murdoc stated as her swooped her up in his arms, and carried her to her crib.
Emily Rose's door was still ajar when the last left it. It turns out Crotez flew back in to sleep on the cribs bed post. "Hey mate" Murdoc nodded to him Cortez screeched back as if to say hello. Murdoc laid Em down in her crib. She wasn't quite asleep yet; Murdoc leaned down and kissed her belly all over, causing Emily to kick her chubby legs and giggle. "Welcome back babe, you sure scared Daddy yesterday." Murdoc whispered to her. She starred back at him and wriggled her chubby arms in the air. Murdoc grabbed them and kissed her angel soft skin. She still had a long hard road ahead of her, the medicine she was taking was going to alter her life quite a bit and Murdoc knew this. Emily just continued to kick her chubby legs, and wriggled her chubby arms in the air, as Murdoc kissed her all over " Do yer old man a favor and stay this way forever baby" Murdoc whispered, but Emily had actually fell asleep at this point. Murdoc blushed a little as he smiled and gave her a big wet kiss on her big chubby cheek. "Sweet dreams meh lil' one" he whispered once more; called Cortez to his shoulder and left her door ajar as he left.
