Here we go! Chapter 6! I'm sorry for taking almost 2 weeks to write something that should only take about ten minutes. (Maybe) My brain decided to stop working... Although, I somehow managed to write something else... (See A/N at end)

This one's not as short as the last one was, I hope you all like #18 & Marron!

Disclaimer: I have been programmed to take DBZ... Sorry, random moment... (In case there's any confusion, I DON'T own it!)

'Pop' 'pop' 'poppop' 'pop'... 'pop' 'pop'... This was the sound coming from the kitchen, as little Marron waited patiently in front of the microwave for the popcorn to be done. 'Poppoppop' 'pop'... 'poppop'... 'pop'... "Mama! I think it's done!" she shouted.

#18 was busy getting everything ready in the living room for their mother/daughter movie night, until she heard the daughter calling her. "Alright, I'm coming." she replied, while entering the kitchen. She casually walked up to the running microwave, then pushed the big button marked 'CANCEL'.

Marron's blue eyes lit up, as she held out her tiny hands to receive the buttery snack. After being thanked, #18 pointed to the living room, then told Marron to go have a seat.

Marron dashed off to the couch, while spilling some of the popcorn along the way. She leaped as high as she could, and crash landed on top of the bouncy cusion, spilling more popcorn in the process. She gently set the bag beside her, then stood up with the remote in hand. "What movie are we gon' watch?" she asked excitedly.

#18 walked in with a huge pile of tapes in hand, then tossed them at the end of the sofa. "Take your pick."

Marron climbed down, then went digging through the pile. She spent a few minutes choosing between the ones she had it narrowed down to. "What bout this?" she held up her pick, so her mother could see. "It has a doggy!"

"Fine." #18 said. After helping Marron back on the couch, she stuck the tape in the VCR. In a matter of seconds, the blue screen started showing the previews. #18 threw herself onto the sofa, while Marron was shoving a big handful of popcorn into her mouth.

#18 let out a deep sigh as she sank back in the cusions. The idea of watching a movie with "doggies", or any movie, didn't appeal to her. She'd rather spend her time fighting. But this is what her kid wanted to do for their night alone, while everyone was away.

"It's finally on!" Marron exclaimed. #18 smiled when she saw her daughter's eyes sparkle, then scooted beside her to watch together. About halfway through the movie, Marron looked to her and said, "Mama... I have to go potty..."

#18 paused the movie, then led her to the restroom. After all that was taken care of, Marron started skipping back to the couch, stopping by the window along the way. "Mama," she said. "can we look at stars?"

Both, mother and daughter walked outside hand in hand, then lifted their faces to the heavens. Millions, upon millions of glittering lights were spilled across the black skies. It's beauty stirred the excitement and awe in the little girl's heart. "Those stars look like papa!" she pointed to a cluster in the north. "See? There's his face, and there's his hair!"

"Where's his nose?" #18 said. Marron placed her small hands on her hips. "You're silly, mama!" she answered. "Papa doesn't have a nose!"

#18 chuckled softly for a moment, then started to head back inside. She stopped in the middle of the doorway and looked back at Marron. "Let's finish watching that movie."

Marron nodded, then ran inside. #18 unpaused the movie and took a seat, then folded her arms across her chest. Marron crawled onto her mother's lap, slowly pushing her crossed arms apart. #18 cuddled the tot and tried to finish watching the movie with her... But they were both out, before it was over.

I managed to get the prologue written for my newest fic. (In your face, brain!) It's called: "Ruler of the Universe" So if you're bored, and you've got nothin' else to read, check it out sometime!

Also, I promise if nothing happens that will stop me, the next chapter should be up in less than a week. I've actually finished the sloppy copy, so keep your eyes peeled!
