Sorry I couldn't do this sooner. A/N This chapter might make you cry. I did. D=

Wally quickly took them back over to David's house. Sure enough they found his dead body just lieing in the grass. Kuki gasped when she saw it and Shane gave her a hug. He cried into her skirt (he's four and short!). Wally called the police.

"Hello, what id your emergency?"

"A man died. I have his kid right here. You might wanna check this out."

"An ambulance and the police will be there shortly." Wally hung up. He went over to get a better look at David.

His right eye was seemingly okay. His face was red and had many cuts. His left eye had a huge object stuck into it. He looked around and saw what looked like blades. There was a man across the street with parallel cuts and bruises. The only difference was that the man had been burned while David was just bruised and bloody. The cops cam and Shane was taken into the house by Kuki. "Cookie?" Shane asked through his tears.

"Yes dear?"

"Can you do me two favors?"

"Of course. What are they?"

"I don't trust that lady we saw. Please stay away from her and that man she was with."

"Oh dear! We might not see them again. Ever. But I will."

"Good. The next one is of something happeneds to my mommie, can I stay with you guys?" Kuki was in tears. He was being so strong and brave. He knew something was going take his mother away from him. He just knew. She hugged him.

"How about we call her and arrange for you to visit us? That way if anything happends, God forbid, then she'll be able to trust us and not have a problem with us adopting you! Wally will be so ecstatic to have you over!" He looked up and smiled, the first time since his horrid scene.

"I'd like that!" Kuki pulled out her phone.

"What's her number and name, sweetheart?"

"866-025-8483. Marie Rivers" (A/N Who noticed what I did?)

"That's great. Does she live in Lexington?" He nodded. "Great we only live an hour away." He smiled. She picked up her phone and called. Shane went to talk to Wally after giving Kuki a hug.

"Hello?" said a voice on the other line.

"Is this Marie Rivers?"

"Yes. Who is calling?"

"I'm Kuki Beetles. I met your son on the plane to Lousiana and he is a little angel! I have some horrible news for you. David's dead."

"Oh my God! Is Shane okay?"

"He's fine. I was more upset than he was. He really seems to enjoy us and wanted us to take care of him if something happens to you. I was wondering if we could get coffee when we get back?"

"Sure, but I'd like to know who my son is dealing with so coffee sounds nice. I'd love to meet who my son was talking about last night. I hear you're pregnant."

"Yeah, a little over two months. It's kinda of a relief."

"Why? Was work driving you crazy?"

"No I love my carreer. I'm the head of Rainbow Monkey Co. and I get so excited when I walk in. But my baby gives me more time to spend with my husband."

"Did you get to see him a lot?"

"Well, he just got his PHD so he was busy with homework and other junk but now he doesn't like leaving me alone."

"That's the only reason?" Marie sensed Kuki hesitating. "It's okay. Just tell me."

"I've...had...a-a-a...c-c-couple...m-m-misc-c-c-arriges." Kuki started tearing up.

"Oh my God, I'm so sad and happy! I hope everything works out for the better. I have to go. Tell Shane I love him. Goodbye, Kuki. I'll call you soon."

"Goodbye, Marie." Wally walked in as Kuki was drying her eyes.

"What's wrong, Kuki?" he said gripping her hands.

"I had a talk with Shane's mom and when we get back I'm having coffee with her." She sighed and looked down. She felt a hand over her stomache. He knew what was bothering her and by the way she sounded it hurt, a lot. "This one's gonna make it, right?" He nearly had tears in his eyes too.

"Yeah. Shane said so." She squeased his hands. She was nervous and he could tell. "I promise, she'll be okay."

"Okay." Kuki said wiping her eyes. He gave her a small kiss and they dropped Shane off with his cousins. Shane said he wanted to be with them tonight. The duo went back to the hotel.
