Gift of Pillaloha

A/N Here's more.

Mahalo to Kitten630 for her reviews and making me want to write more.

Sora woke up as it was dawn but hoped the test revealed that Lori was her daughter but she went downstairs to the kitchen where Leroy was sitting at the table asleep.

He'd fallen asleep there last night at midnight.

He missed Pele but he and Moopey never gave up hope that they would be reunited with Pele one day but he had a dream about her with Naru and he didn't want to remember it since he nearly woke the whole house up.

Sora sighed walking into the living room and watching some TV until the others woke up......

But in her room in Naru's ship, Pele woke up with a jolt.

She'd had another one of those strange dreams again and it involved two experiments that she looked like but had no clue about them or that they were her real parents but Naru never understood when she told him about these dreams so she never told him about them but one of her extra arms appeared from under her furry skin with a silver bangle on it.

It was her birth bracelet that Leroy and Moopey had given her when she was born but every time after these strange dreams, she looked at it and felt a feeling that she didn't belong here and that Naru wasn't her true family but she wasn't so sure.

"Why do I have these dreams and that feeling?

But the dreams...... are more like memories.

But why would Naru keep them from me if they are memories of my true home?

It makes no sense.

I need to know where I belong." she thought as she heard Naru calling for her to have breakfast.

She sighed walking into the main room and sat down at the table as she made herself a bowl of cereal and saw Naru look at her.

"Pele I have some business to attend to so I'll be back later.

You can do anything you want but don't leave the ship.

Is that understood?" Naru told her.

"Ih Naru." she answered as she saw him leave.

She began to eat but made some toast and spread jam and peanut butter on it using her claws.

She was distracted by her dream last night.......

Lexi sighed rubbing sleep from his beady black eyes as they opened as he hugged his bear.

He was curious about his father but the ohana never spoke of him except for Lilo and Jumba but they told some little lies but the kid was still young but knew how much he felt out of place among the other experiment kids because of his lack of powers but they made it clear that he didn't need powers to be a part of their ohana.

He always slept in until the other kids went to school so they wouldn't be mean to him.

Lilo smiled seeing him enter the kitchen in pyjamas but he had a nervous smile on his face.

She had only mentioned the meeting with Clyde at the store to Jumba but the Quanta Quaglian understood.

"I need to see Sora for a few minutes." Jumba said as the female turquise furred experiment followed him outside to the Big Red Battleship but Lilo wondered what was going on as she watched Lexi making cereal but needed a little help from her with the milk.

"T-Thanks Aunt Lilo." he said softly sounding like Clyde.

She knew that he'd only started first grade but he was very quiet and kept to himself so didn't have many friends but had heard that Lori would be starting in that class in a week so that would help him feel better since they were always playing together and were best friends.

"Werre you thinking about your Dad last night before going to sleep?" Lilo asked the young experiment.

"Yeah.

I imagine that he's doing something cool like stopping bad guys out there in the galaxy.

You did say he was far away, right?" Lexi told her.

Lilo smiled at his innocence.

She hadn't told Lexi the whole truth about his father especially the fact he used to be a thief and steal things but knew that Clyde had changed since then and wanted to be with Lexi but was afraid.

"Are you finished?

You need to get ready for school." she told him.

Lexi nodded as he left the kitchen and went to his room getting dressed.

He hoped that his father would return one day and they'd be a family again as he went downstairs and got into the X-Buggy as Lilo drove off to the school.

She noticed that Lexi seemed quiet on the ride.

"Is something bothering you Lexi?" she asked him as he decided to speak up.

"I wish..... the other kids, the other experiment ones would like me and want me to play with them but they don't like me because I have no powers,

I can't break things, shoot lasers, make big bunches of power.

Besides my arm, I'm nothing." he told her.

She knew how it felt to be alone as a child because she was different.

"You're not an nothing Lexi.

You're pretty cool and have many but less destructive talents.

You're very smart, creative, love to cook and make things like origami.

I'm sure Lori likes you for who you are along with Jumba and me along with Nani and Pleakley like you.

Besides your Daddy has no powers besides his robotic arm and he seems okay with it." Lilo said as they pulled up at the school.

"Yeah you're right.

Mahalo Aunt Lilo you rock." he told her grabbing her back pack and going into the school.

She chuckled a little as she left the school.

She hoped Lexi would be alright.

Sora smiled proudly as Jumba told her the results of the DNA test and that Lori was her daughter but she needed help remembering about her mother since she'd been away for a while but she would do anything to make her and Lori a family.

"Thanks Jumba.

I knew she was mine but what about Leroy and Moopey?

I feel sorry that they can't be reunited with their daughter but they weren't giving up on the hope that it would happen." she told him.

He nodded seeing her leave the ship.

He hoped his creations would be alright.....

Pele was shocked reading Naru's files and finding out the truth about why she was here.

"So this is why I'm here?

To help him take over the galaxy.

I won't do it!

I'm going home." the teenage ruby red experiment thought grabbing her back pack and climbed into the transporter inputting data for Kauai as bright light surrounded her as she vanished......

Naru was not going to be happy finding this out......

Lilo was surprised to find Clyde asleep on the couch as she entered the house but smiled but saw some cuts and bruises but was curious about how he got them as she entered the kitchen getting the first aid case from the cabinet. She walked back into the living room and sat down beside him gently on the couch and began cleaning and dressing the experiment's wounds hearing him whimper a little in pain but saw him calm down as he continued to sleep.

"Lexi's sure gonna get a surprise when he gets home." she thought as she realised it was lunch time and went to get something to eat but saw Reuben walk in still in pyjamas rubbing slep from his eyes as he began making sandwiches.

She smiled at that but saw dark rings around his eyes which indicated he had been having trouble falling asleep but decided not to ask but was also making something for Clyde when he woke up.

She wondered what he had been doing that he'd gotten many wounds and cuts.

She had a feeling Lexi would be curious too coming home from school.......
