Lucy walked in and Double D shut the door behind her. She then turned around to look at him.
"You're not easy to find, Eddward." Lucy said managing to smile at her little brother.
"That's the idea. Now why are you here? How did—" Double D then noticed the blood dripping down her head, "Good lord! What happened! Why are you bleeding?"
"I was just shot when I was trying to escape." Lucy said plainly.
"Well, let me get you—wait ESCAPE! You escaped from that place!" Double D yelled, "How on earth did you manage to pull that off?"
"Oh, Eddward. You know that nothing that those humans do to keep me locked up will ever really work." She said.
"groan…whatever. Let's get that wound cleaned up." He then took her hand and lead her to the kitchen.
Double D had her sit down on a nearby chair as he went to the kitchen sink and grabbed a washcloth and then headed back to Lucy and wiped off the blood on her face. She looked at the place while Double D was cleaning her cut.
"Is this another foster home?" she asked him.
"No, this is permeate." He said as he finished with her cut, "But Mother and Father can't know that you're here."
"Mother and Father? You've gone so far as to call them that?" Lucy said.
"Is that a problem?" Double D asked his sister.
"No, I guess not." She said, "Got any clothes I could wear?"
He headed upstairs and went into his parent's bedroom. He grabbed a pair of his mother's old clothes and went back downstairs. He walked into the kitchen and handed the clothes to Lucy. She looked at them plainly.
"I guess they're not that bad." She said.
"Well, you're not going to be getting out of this house anytime soon." Double D told her.
"You know I can't stay locked up, I'll go crazy." Lucy said with a devilish grin.
"Unfortunately." Double D said.
The next day…
Double D was outside hanging with his friends Eddy and Ed. Things were going good, until Eddy said…
"By the way, who was the girl that was at your front door?"
He froze, Double D quickly thought of something. Though it wasn't very good.
"Girl? What girl?" Double D said.
"I saw her too Double D!" Ed said, "She had the same color hair as Evil Tim's wife!"
"So, who is she?" Eddy asked impatiently.
Double D knew he couldn't keep the secret from his friends, "If I tell you, will you promise not to tell anyone she's here?"
"Sure, won't tell a soul." Eddy said as Ed nodded in agreement, "Now, who the hell is she?"
"sigh…her name is Lucy, and she's my sister." Double D told them.
They both looked at him in shock. Each was able to keep silent for a good minute before Ed was able to finally able to say something.
"Double D has a sister?"
"Technically, she's my half-sister." Double D explained.
"She's still your sister. But, wow. This wasn't expected." Eddy said still in slight shock, "So, when can we meet her?"
"Huh!" Double D said.
"Oh come'on, you don't expect to tell us you have a sister and not introduce us?" Eddy said.
"Uh…she really isn't that much of a people person." Double D said trying to keep them off the subject.
"Please Double D!" Ed practically begged.
Double D finally gave in, "Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you!"
