A/N- Annnnd.... This chapter is goin' to explain how Jamie got out and a piece of the mysterious past between Todd and Nicholas. -ghostly noises in background- ... Haha, very funny Nick... -shoots him- -everybody hears a startled scream- ... Oops... -snickers-
---After everybody's in bed
Nicholas wandered into his office and called the city jail house. He waited as the phone rang repeatedly.
...Ring...
...Ring...
...Ring...
...Ring...
"Hello?" Somebody answered tiredly.
"Yes, this is Lord Nicholas Asinawa, calling pertaining to one of my citizens in your jail house." Nicholas said, completely serious.
"And who may I ask is this?" The woman didn't take him seriously.
"Nicholas Asinawa. Prince of Anxasia(1). You have my citizen in your jail." Nicholas said again.
"Oh, I am so sorry Lord Asinawa. May I inquire as to who this citizen is?" The woman asked. She sounded so amazed that she was talking to a royal person.
"Yes... His name is Jamie Madrox."
"Oh, no, he's American." The woman said. Nicholas smirked.
'Time to work my magic... Hopefully Todd doesn't kill me when he finds out...'
"Oh, no no no... I assure you, he's Anxasian." Nicholas said, hacking into the government files. He quickly found Jamie's birth certificate. Smirking, he changed the birthplace to a local hospital in his country, and the location of where the multiplying mutant was born.
"But it says on his birth certificate that he's American!" The woman said over the phone.
"Why don't you check again? I'm sure you saw wrong." Nicholas said, saving it to all computers with the file.
"Yes, right here is says that he's Anxasian! And... Oh... Oh I'm so sorry! Where shall I tell him to go?" The woman asked.
"Just tell him to wait right outside and that Mr. Asinawa will be picking him up." Nicholas said.
"Yes, of course!"
"Goodbye." He hung up. Smirking, he got up to go pick up his new citizen. It reminded him of when he and Todd used to hack into computers back in Anxasia, what he just did...

Five year old Nicholas laughed as the four year old Todd giggled sitting next to him. The two were sitting in a field of flowers, with Nicholas' laptop playing many classified files. Todd's eyes widened.
"Do they really wanna do that to your mommy?!" The small pale-skinned black haired, green eyed boy asked, amazed. Nicholas made a grossed out looked.
"Yuck! Let's delete it!" Nicholas laughed. Todd's eyes got even bigger.
"We can't do that! We'll gets in trouble!" He said, staring at Nicholas like he's insane.
"We will not! I'm prince, 'member?" Nicholas giggled.
"But..." Todd frowned.
"It'll be fine!" Nicholas assured the younger boy as he deleted the plans.
"Okay... hey, what's that one?" Todd asked, pointing to another file on the screen.
"Dunno. Let's look." Nicholas opened it.
"Who's Raven Darkholme?" Todd asked.
"I dunno... But it says she's wanted for... impersonating... The president of the United States..." Nicholas blinked.
"I hearded 'bouts'm! The United States is s'posed to be a place of freedom from... from... pr...presdi..."
"Prejudice?" Nicholas offered.
"Yeah! And equal rights and stuffs like that!" Todd said. Nicholas blinked as he stared at his best friend.
"... Well if it's equal rights, why is she gettin' persekewted?" Nicholas asked.
"... I dunno... Let's delete it!" Todd said excitedly. Nicholas laughed.
"Yeah!" He deleted the file. It was then the boy saw the time.
"Uh-oh! It's gettin' late! I gotta go!"
"Oh no! I'mma gets in trouble!" Todd's eyes widened.
"Come on! Let's go!" Nicholas quickly erased the history as he clicked out of the program. He turned the laptop off and the two scrambled to get home.
"Bye Nicholas!" Todd called as they ran their seperate paths.
"Bye Todd! I'll see you tomorrow!" Nicholas laughed, waving.
Nicholas exited his car and walked up the steps to the station. He saw the mutant waiting for him.
"You Mr. Asinawa?" Jamie asked.
"Depends. You Jamie Madrox?"
"Yes."
"Then yes I'm Mr. Asinawa. Come on. Your precious little Firebug is worried." Nicholas said. Jamie frowned.
"How worried?" He asked seriously. Nicholas frowned.
"Very. He tried coming down here to get you out. Come on." He said. The two got into the car as the sun started coming up.
---Later that Morning; During John's shouting; Nicholas' office
Nicholas looked up to see Todd walking into his office. He tried to look innocent.
"God, how did I know...?" Todd sighed, sitting in one of the chairs in front of Nicholas' desk. Nicholas shrugged.
"Ehhh... I couldn't resist. 'Sides, the idiot bimbo bought it. Jamie said she was blond. I never thought those American Blond jokes were, y'know, true." The two laughed.
"Yeah, well... If you get caught, Lord Ass-in-our-way, I'm not helping you get out of trouble." Todd said, still smiling.
"Gods no. You've helped plenty in our childhood." Nicholas said, thinking of the first time they met, and Todd had gotten Nicholas out of trouble.
"I think our whole friendship started because I got you out of trouble with your nanny." Todd said.
"Yep." Nicholas grinned, turning in his chair to open the mini-fridge. He got out to glass bottles of God knows what. He tossed one into the air. Todd rolled his eyes and used his wicked tongue to get it before it broke.
"I will never get tired of that." Nicholas said, drinking some of his unidentified soda. Todd shook his head as the bottle now remained in his hand.
"You will eventually." The mutant said.
"Mmm... No... Don't think I will. Have you even tried of thinking of how many ways you could use it during-!"
"Finish that sentence and I will make your life miserable!" Todd said, glaring.
"Like how?" Nicholas grinned.
"Like I'll leave and you won't hear for me for another Gods know how long again." Todd replied in a very serious tone. Nicholas' grin faded and he looked like a lost, kicked, begging puppy that's starving. Todd sighed.
"Alright, no... I won't leave again." He said. Nicholas ran around his desk and hugged Todd tightly. He ignored the blushing mutant's squeak of surprise.
"Todd... Don't ever leave... Please... Not ever again..." Nicholas whispered into Todd's ear. The smaller man blushed more.
"I... I won't... I promise..." He said quietly. There was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Asinawa, Mr. Tolansky, breakfast is ready! Miss Munroe said to get your butt into the kitchen before we let the little kids have a go on the food!" The familiar voice of Melody called. The two adults smiled.
"Yeah... It's best we listen..." The human said. Todd nodded and the headed for the kitchen. Both mutant and human weren't sure what to expect with Jamie now in the mansion... No doubt fights would ensue between the multiplying mutant and a certain ice mutant...
---End Chapter
