"All...gone?" you asked. Emily nodded her head, frowning as she gazed down to the floor in a daze. You exchanged a look with Leon, he frowned. 'The poor girl was left all...alone...' you thought and glanced at her. "Emily, honey, how long have you been in this town alone?" you then asked, watching her with sympathy. She brought her finger to her chin thoughtfully and glanced up, smiling a weak smile.

"I dunno," she replied. You let out a light sigh, grinning weakly at her.

"You must have been brave staying here on your own," Leon spoke up with a smile. She also exchanged a smile, but it seemed shyer. She lowered her gaze to the ground with a blush on her face as she kicked her feet.

"I think its best you stay with us, Emily; you'll be a lot safer. Is that okay with you?" you asked. She looked up at you and nodded her head vigorously. You smiled and stood up, "C'mon, I'm sure you're hungry." Emily nodded her head again and jumped off of her seat. You lent out a hand for her to take and she gladly took the gesture. "Luis made some food, do you like rice?" she nodded. You looked up at the other three. "I'm going to take Emily back to the restaurant, Jess want to come?"

"Sure," she nodded and stood up also as she followed you after the door with Emily's hand linked with yours. The guys stood up, exchanging curious looks.

"There's something about that girl, Leon..." Luis spoke up. Leon shook his head.

"It's nothing. We should go and find a room at the motel for us to sleep at," he suggested. Luis nodded and followed with.

Emily walked by your side with Pongo along. Jessica came up at your other side, smiling at the small girl. "How old are you, Emily?" Jessica asked curiously. She looked up at her with a white smile.

"I'm seven and a half!" she replied enthusiastically.

"Wow, you're a big girl, arent you?" you asked. She shook her head.

"You girls are bigga then me." Jessica and you lightly laughed and made your way to the front of the restaurant. Jessica pushed open the door, holding it out for the two of you, including Pongo. Emily let go of your hand and ran her way towards the table that still had your plates. Jessica started cleaning up the table while you went in the kitchen to dish Emily her own plate. You grabbed a plate, dished out the food and made your way back into the main restaurant area. Emily had already taken a seat at the table and was humming to herself as she waited for her food.

"Here you go honey," you said, placing the plate in front of her.

"Thank you!" she replied and grabbed a fork and began eating down her food.

"What have you been eating here when you were alone?" Jessica asked, picking up another plate. Emily quickly swallowed her food and gazed up at her.

"Junk food," she answered.

"Junk food? That's not healthy for you," you said, shaking your head. She only shrugged and bit through her chicken.

"I'm going to start cleaning these up," Jessica informed as she had piles of dirty dishes in her grasp. You nodded your head and took a seat across from Emily. She looked up at you with a tilt of her head.

"So, what were you doing before we found you?" you asked.

"I was taking a nap; mommy says if I take a nap everyday, I will grow up to be a strong girl. Even stronger then my daddy," she answered with a wide smile. 'She's so cute!'

"Is that so?" she nodded her head, "in that case, I better be careful around you then, huh?" She nodded her head again, you smiled. "How about this, if you finish your food me and you go outside and play with Pongo, what do you say?"

"Okay!" she shouted and began swallowing down her food.

"Hey, calm yourself! There's no rush here."

After Emily had finished up all her food you brought her empty plate into the back of the restaurant, into the kitchen. You set it by the sink where Jessica had already started washing the dishes. "I'm going to go outside and play with Emily, if you need help call me, okay?" you said.

"Yeah, but I think I got things covered. Go ahead and live back your childhood moments once again," Jessica replied.

You smiled.

"Thanks." With that, you walked your way out of the kitchen.

"C'mon, ___________!" Emily shouted as she opened the front door with Pongo running after her.

"Hey, wait for me!" you called after her and ran out the door.

"You have to catch me first!" Emily replied and began running her way down the road. You laughed and ran after her while Pongo barked out of amusement. Emily laughed as she looked over her shoulder. You shook your head and continued to chase her towards the round open area of the motel. "I win!" Emily shouted excitedly and jumped up and down.

"No fair, you had a head start," you replied and smiled. You stopped in front of the jumping Emily. You watched her then averted your gaze ahead. Leon was standing at an open door way of one of the motel's rooms. You grinned towards him as he watched you. "You want to join?" you asked, waving your hand to him for him to come over. He shook his head. You tsked, "You're no fun." Suddenly you felt a tug on your sleeve. You jerked your head down, seeing a smile widely on Emily's face.

"Aren't we going to play?" she asked. You nodded your head. She jumped up and down, running in a circle with Pongo.

You laughed softly and began chasing after her. "Run Pongo! ___________ is the monster!" Emily shouted. Pongo barked. You chased after them, laughing to yourself as you did so. You could hear the soft chuckles of Leon himself also. You gazed at his direction. He was leaning against the wall, his arms crossed over his chest while he watched.

"Having fun watching?" you called out to him.

"Yeah, I am," he replied with a smirk.

"I want to be the monster now!" Emily shouted.

"Okay," you said and began running from her as she chased after you, making fake growls as she played the part. "Ah! Don't hurt me!" you said as you ran your way towards Leon. He gazed at you curiously and took his back away from the wall. You ran behind him, and hid, peeking over his shoulder as Emily was running towards you. She skids to a halt when she reached in front of Leon. She folded her arms behind her back and looked down to the ground, a red tint overcoming her cheeks as she shyly looked up at Leon.

"I think she likes you," you whispered into Leon's ear. "Aw, cute..." Leon didn't say anything and only looked at you for an answer as Emily still stood in front of him, not moving or saying a word. "Emily got a crush!" you chanted, her face flushed.

"No, I don't!" she defended, trying to hide her face.

"Yes, you do," you replied as you stuck your tongue out at her. Emily did the same.

"You know, it makes me wonder which one of you is the kid and the adult here," Leon remarked. You narrowed your eyes playfully at him and shoved him with your hands.

"Leon's the monster!" you shouted, laughing as you backed away from him. Leon opened his mouth to object when suddenly he was tackled down to the ground by Pongo. The dog began licking his face while Leon tried pushing him away. "Good boy," you whispered to the dog as you pulled him away from Leon. Leon sat up, wiping the dog's drool from his face with the back of his hand. He glared at you almost playfully.

"That wasn't funny," he remarked.

"Really? Because I thought it was hilarious," you retorted. Leon stood himself up.

"If you think it's so hilarious, maybe you wouldn't mind if I do the same thing," Leon said and instantly tackled you down on your back, holding your wrists down to the pavement as you struggled from his gift. Emily started laughing.

"Lick her face, Pongo!" she ordered. The dog walked up to you, leaning down and began licking your face.

"Ah! Pongo! Leon, I'm going to kill you!" you shouted as Leon chuckled.

*Author's Note: Not that she has much of a chance, but; hah! See, she is in the way! Just because of her existence and her little crush for Leon puts her in the way! This is why she's so dang annoying! Uh, anyway, there's the last chapter for the night.
