"Kay?" Byrne floated right above Kay.
She glanced up. "D-Daddy?" She stood there frozen in shock. It was her daddy! Tears gushed out like a waterfall as she ran to his arms.
"Daddy!" She hugged Byrne, and Byrne hugged back.
Ralos looked at the father and the daughter, it wasn't in his place to interrupt the tender moment. As much as he wanted to watch, he knew it would be rude and meddlesome, he sighed and punched himself.
Ralos woke up, and Luna was facing him with one eyebrow arched.
"Why did you punch yourself?"
"None of your business."
Ralos brushed off the dust on his pant bottom and walked away. He smirked to himself, he wasn't aware of the impending doom about to befall on him.
Luna held a foldable chair and was wondering which part of Ralos's head she should bash it with. Ready, aim, clunk!
Ralos had no time to react, with a special victory pose Liuxang showed Luna, she put one foor on Ralos's back and showed the universal sign for victory. The hidden camera clicked.
"And girls win this round! Girl Power!"
Kay peeked out of the room, she had a nice chat with her father, she wanted to meet Uncle Badd again and this time apologize for how she reacted. She smiled when she saw Luna gloating over her victory against Sola.
Luna turned around and was surprised to see Kay.
"Are you feeling all right now?"
"Yeah, can we visit Uncle Badd?"
"Ya sure? It's two in the morning."
"I'm sure."
Luna smiled and picked the unconscious Ralos up. "Well, what are you waiting for? Let's get going!" She grabbed the car keys that hanged by the door. "And let's do something exciting after that."
Kay smiled mischievously. "Like what?"
"Going to Zhengfa!"
Kay's face fell, she expected something crazier than that. "That's all?"
"And we'll do it without wasting any money." Luna supported Ralos while opening the storage room. Three huge wooden boxes tumbled out.
"We'll be stowaways?" Kay asked filled with excitement.
"Stowaways is such a harsh word, I prefer the term high quality fur coats." Luna opened the door wider, there were piles of fake fur coats in the storage room. A note fell.
Go to Zhengfa,
Signed, Liuxang.
"Good ol' Whitey still amazes me."
"Of course, Liuxang's an astronomer, reading stars to foretell the future is his specialty."
Kay smiled. "But the problem here is my do-gooder brother."
"Brother?"
"I mean sister! I always wanted Sola to be a guy but SHE became a HE."
"What did you just say?" Ralos asked, his head was still spinning but he was using his rage so that he wouldn't faint.
"Now now, SOLA, Kay's here."
"Sola my butt, I am sick of you dressing me up, giving me a stupid fey name just because you want to write a freakin' romance story based on those gender bender anime you love!"
"Sola?" Kay asked, she couldn't understand what Sola was saying. As for Ralos, being called Sola broke the camel's back.
"My name is not Sola, it's Ralos!" he snapped. He grabbed Luna and pointed at her and ripped open his shirt revealing his chest. "This girl over here wanted me to be a girl, that's why I kept this charade up and ... and ..." Ralos shut up when he realized it was Kay. He stood frozen there staring at Kay.
"Ralos?" Kay asked.
"Ah ha ha ha," Ralos laughed awkwardly.
"Thank goodness!" Kay hugged Ralos. Ralos looked at Kay stupidly.
"Luna told me about you and she just told me to play along," Kay continued, unaware that Luna was gesturing her to stop talking. Ralos entire face twitched, his eyes seemed to contain angry hot flames as he slowly turned to Luna. Luna smiled awkwardly and dashed to find a safe hideout until Ralos cooled down.
"I'm going to get you Luna, even if it's the last thing I do!" Ralos shouted. He stopped ranting when Kay put her hand on his shoulder. He turned around.
"Yay!" Kay hugged him hard enough to knock him out to the ground. Ralos's face became red.
"Kay?" Ralos asked.
"Let's go to Uncle Badd! You drive!"
"Excuse me," A blonde girl said to a doctor," Dr. Tuo?"
"Yes, Fiona?"
"Today is the day of –"
"Yes, yes, I know, go pick that person up, I'll prepare him when that person comes here with you."
Fiona smiled her thanks and left. The doctor grumbled and attended to his patients muttering a few complaints.
"Ah, home again," Liuxang said with a tired yawn," long travels make me feel so sleepy even though I spent all the time sleeping like a rock." He dragged his beaten up luggage with him outside the airport. Walter looked around him, Zhengfa had become a wonderful country ever since the government was changed. Everything he saw was a complete blend of tradition and modernization. Some young adults still wore traditional Zhengfan clothes with a touch of modern are in them.
"This is Zhengfa?" Walter asked, stunned.
"This is the new Zhengfa."
Walter saw a willowy blonde girl approaching them, her eyes blazing with quiet fury. Walter readied himself, he put his hand in his pocket and felt for the taser he had with him.
"Eh? Walter? What's with that –" Liuxang turned around to see what Walter was looking at. The blonde girl grabbed him by the cuff and shook him violently.
"LIUXANG!"
"F-Fi-Fiona." Liuxang choked on his words as Fiona kept on shaking him.
"You idiot! You're a doctor and then suddenly you just disappear from the clinic, do you know how much overtime we had to do? Oh sure, you already had the lists of patients and their conditions, but they trust you! You know how much I want to kill you? I really wish you would just stop disappearing without telling anyone!"
Fiona noticed that Walter was watching them. Sheepish, she let go of Liuxang and smiled at Walter. "Ah, so you're Shelley." She punched Liuxang's stomach. Liuxang keeled over and drop to his knees.
"Walter," Liuxang corrected. Fiona smiled at Liuxang her eyes drilling holes at him. This time she stepped on Liuxang's foot.
"I'm Fiona, Fiona Egan." She extended her hand and gave Walter a handshake.
"Ah, yes. Liuxang mentioned you."
"Then did you know this?" Fiona pulled Liuxang up, and wrapped her arms around Liuxang's neck affectionately. "I'm Liuxang's girlfriend and nurse."
Walter's jaw dropped.
Ralos and Luna waited out of Tyrell's apartment.
"Why?" Ralos asked.
"Why What?" Luna asked.
"Don't be stupid, why did you force me to dress up like a girl at the first place?"
Luna shrugged and played with her hair. Ralos grabbed her wrist. "Don't ignore me."
Luna sighed. "I wanted to know what lengths you would go to be with Kay."
"Just Kay?" For some reason, Ralos felt a pang of hurt, it seemed that Kay meant more to Luna than him, even if he was her brother.
"No, not just for Kay, stupid." Luna tousled Ralos's hair. "I wanted to know if Kay would also accept you for who you are, she already knew you might be a guy the first time she saw you, so I told her."
Ralos looked out the window and at the car he drove, he didn't park it properly and now there was another ticket on the windshield wiper. Liuxang was going to kill him if he knew. "I'm glad you're my sister."
"I'm glad you're my brother. Are you still going to kill me?"
"No, I was just a bit, I dunno, angry for the wild goose chase you put me and Kay on."
A shadow caught Ralos's attention, he saw a woman wave at him. He gestured to Luna to look at her.
"Oh my God," Luna whispered under her breath.
"It's her, but she should e dead."
The black haired, green-eyed woman smiled at them like a Cheshire Cat.
