Disclaimer: I do not own Drakengard, or the franchise though I wish to my bones I did!

This story was inspired by UnmercyfulDeath's "Not A Part of The Plan" and "Life Is Too Much Of A Miracle" sorry if it seems to be a cheap copy!

Final got it! I was thinking on how I was going to do the family reunion. Opals probably going o be hissing and spitting like a cat, and Caim's going to be dumbstruck… this is going to take a while to get used to…

This chapter was to be a dragon-polly filler xD

Don't ask…

Chapter 9: Issues and Solutions

Opal pushed her bed back into its original position. The cleanup after the rebellion was being taken care of quickly and efficiently. She had told everyone she would tend to her own room just for something to do and to keep people from seeing what she had done to it. Opal frowned… she'd need a bucket of water to clean up the blood…

Turning around she quickly scurried down the halls to the checkpoint the drudges had set up to help speed the cleaning. Opal and Angelus had admitted they were a lot smarter then anyone gave them credit. The small army of servants had quickly set up several checkpoints at witch one could find cleaning supplies for any and all messes. If needed just go to the closest, order what was needed and continue on your task.

Angelus found it very fun to have Caim mopping the great hall where a large fight had broken out. He obviously didn't like it but conceded to her for one reason or another. Opal didn't want to ask anyway. Her brother, his name they had all discovered was Naeovex, or also known as Naeo by some he had told them how Vox Vocis Cruora, the dragon of Blood had saved him, in however an abstract manner and pretty much raised him. In his travels he developed his own fighting styles and had made himself a small home in witch was recently destroyed by a maddened mob.

He had then, in turn, came seeking his parents. The scars from his fall decorated his body made Opal shudder. When she had told him about her bloodlust he hadn't even flinched, "I like him." Had been her only comment on that. Since the short family reunion every one was pitching in to rebuild. The damage had been done so everyone was pitching in to help. Naeo was currently in the courtyard directing the repairs to the battlements, Caim was, as stated, mopping the great hall, Opal was cleaning random rooms starting with hers, and Angelus was helping clean up the bodies.

Having been out for only a short time Opal didn't miss much, but did learn exactly how she had passed out from their short fight. She and her brother being near equals in power wasn't much of a surprise but what did surprise her was that she learned her bloodlust, while being a more controlled version of Caim's and making her at that time far more powerful then Naeo in almost every way took its toll on her body. She hissed to her self as she flipped her bed back over to get the guard it crushed out from under it. Just her luck to be cursed with something like this!

After finishing her room, and a few others that got caught in the cross fire she was picked up by the Kitchen Mistress as she was passing by. "Dear, would you please bring these rolls to the men working at the front gate? I bet they're hungry and so are you. Just don't eat them all along the way." She handed Opal a massive stack of plats that made her grunt. "I'm on it…" She slowly made her way down to the front gate balancing the overly-stacked plates.

As she found her way to the front gate opal found a few tables already set up and started distributing the plates. As she was putting the lest eight down she called out, "Foods here! Come on and eat boys!" Cheers arose from the multitude of men as they swarmed for the tables. She was quickly forced to jump into the center to avoid getting trampled.

Hissing in consternation as she stood up and re-sis the tie in her shirt to loosen up on her breasts she quickly started trying to organize the fiasco she had started. Knocking several fools aside as they tried grabbing more then their fair share they quickly organized.

It preceded smoothly and Opal found the crowed dwindling like snow in a summer thaw. Looking around at her handiwork her eyes found Naeo. He was answering questions near the back of the pack, shirtless and his long black hair framing his form perfectly. His scars seemed to outline his muscles and give him an air of power. Opal found herself mesmerized for what seemed like an eternity watching him stand there. Until a voice sounded behind her. Spinning like a top she nearly crashed into her mother. Angelus stared at her with a raised inquiring eyebrow as Opal tried to open her mouth but failed miserably. Angelus just laughed softly, "I understand, and I wont ask who it is. That's your father's job. I wont pry." She stepped past her and Opal felt as if her heart had stopped.

She stood there as Angelus walked away. Was it that obvious she had been staring? She gulped, if so the Naeovex had also noticed... what then? The thought made her shudder and she sped away to let Angelus take over. She had to get away! Crushing on her own brother? How could ANYONE ever do something like that? The though made her stop dead in her tracks. Now she was berating her self for thinking her brother was hot... She screamed to the heavens, "Why me?" Several maids jumped aside. Realising this she scurried away to her room. Mabye she could get there before any one else noticed her red face...

Caim threw down the mop he was holding. I don't see why I have to mop the Great Hall!

"Your the one who made that mess." Came Angelus's reply. Caim clacked his teeth before picking up the mop again. He didn't know why he did half of what she told him to, but he did them anyway. Grinding his teeth he continued to mop the floor. That was untill he watched Opal scurry across the great hall as quickly as she could. Whats her problem?

"I think shes worried about me noticing her gawking over one of the boys..."

Crap. Now i'll have to put the fear the the gods in them...

"Wait 'till she at least shows who it is!"

Fine... Caim growled and continued moping the floor.

Sorry about taking so long. Just kept breaking into a fit of laughter when ever I tried getting pastt he part about Opal drooling over a shirtless Naeo xD

Sad I ish yes? And now I'm totaly confusing my self.
