When Lelouch woke up the next morning, he slowly opened his eyes to see a long grey nose in his face.
"Geez Aldair!" Lelouch yawned, nudging the anteater. "A little close there."
"What? I just had my noise on your shoulder." Aldair said innocently as he hopped down off the bed.
Lelouch starred as Aldair stretched himself, opening his mouth in a loud roaring yawn.
"I don't think I'll ever get over that." he sighed, getting out of bed.
"Oh please, you're stuck we me so you best get used to it." said Aldair shaking himself to ruffle his fur.
Lelouch just shook his head with a sigh before changing and heading down for breakfast.
But he ran into Suzaku in the hallway.
"Did you sleep well last night Suzaku?" Lelouch asked with a smile as Suzaku yawned.
"Better than I have in a while. Jurri didn't drool on my pillow this time." Suzaku chuckled. "And what about you?"
"I woke up with Aldair's nose in my face." Lelouch sighed.
"It could've been worse, you could've woken up with Aldair's teeth in your face." said Suzaku with a shrug and a smile.
"Good point. Anyway, let's go get some breakfast, I'm hungry."
"Agreed."
So the two of them went downstairs into the kitchen where the found Leon munching on an apple, reading the paper.
"I was wondering when the two of you were going to get up." he said with a tiny smile. "I was about to come get you both myself."
"Why? It's not that late." said Lelouch. "It's only eight."
"Yes, but you see, you're spending the day with my brother." said Leon with a sly smile.
"Which brother?" asked Suzaku curiously.
"Roddy of course." he said pointing to Roderick who was sitting on the counter on the opposite side of the kitchen.
"Why?" asked Lelouch a bit slowly.
"Because I've got a doctor's appointment, and Roddy wants to see if what helped me, will help you two as well."
"This won't end in me having some weird nick name will it?" Lelouch asked.
"What's weirder than Lulu?" Suzaku chuckled.
"Polar bear." said Lelouch pointing to Leon.
"Oh, I guess that is a bit weirder."
"Anyway, you two need to go get dressed because Roddy needs to get to work."
"And why are we going with him if he has to work?" asked Suzaku curiously.
"Because I got you two a nice interaction day with me." said Roddy with a grin.
"Interaction? With what?" asked Lelouch unsurely. "I mean, honestly I feel as if I've had enough strange interactions for one day thanks to the freak anteater that had his nose in my face this morning."
"And why is Aldair a freak exactly?" Roderick asked.
"Because he has teeth! Anteaters don't have teeth and they certainly don't have a roar like a lion! They don't normally talk either."
"Ohhhh, I always wondered why some of the other kids were afraid of him." said Roderick in an enlightened way.
"I didn't know he had teeth. Only that he talked." said Leon strangely. "He has teeth? Really?"
"Yes! And they've gotta be the scariest set of teeth I've ever seen! On anything! Even a saber tooth tiger didn't have teeth that long, and they definitely didn't have anywhere near as many."
"Where does he keep them?" Roderick asked in awe.
"Hell if I know. But he has them."
"I wouldn't doubt it, anyway, hurry up and go get dressed you two, you better get going."
So Lelouch and Suzaku turned around and headed upstairs to their rooms to get dressed, wondering what the day was about to bring.

Ginger: Sorry about this chapter being so short, it's just a quickie filler chapter for the next one. What strange animal encounters will Lelouch and Suzaku have with Roderick? I'll give you a hint, one of them was mentioned in chapter 7! For the record though, this story's about over. Only a few chappies left. But fear not! A sequel will be started the day this one ends! I've already got it planned. Anyway, thanks to the usual: Digidreamer, midorchi_chan, imaginedreams22, and one sided pancake, also my friend Craig for the random review. ( he usually gives me his reviews at work). Thanks guys! You kept this story afloat!
