They entered the club through a back entrance so the cameras wouldn't see them. They felt Anita's power mingling with Asher's as they approached where the party was. Sin began whining and almost crawling up Richard's body. He began yelling that someone needed to help Anita. Jamil and Shang-Da were trying to help him control Sin who seemed to be in a panic.

"Ulfric, we've been asked to escort Nathanial and Damian back to the Circus. " Jason said, walking up supporting Nathanial. "it looks as if our little Sin needs to leave as well. "


Richard huffed. Sin had calmed down but now he was babysitting a were leopard and a vampire neither of which he particularly liked or got along with. Not only that he had a hybrid who wouldn't let go of him, two enforcers who were intent on securing everything and sweeping for bugs, and a low pack member who wouldn't leave his home no matter how many times he was ordered.

They were currently watching a horror movie in Richard's living room. Nathanial and Jason had insisted that Saturday nights were horror movie night at Anita's. They'd been so annoying that Sin had literally thrown them from the house and locked them out. Shang-Da and Jamil had fetched them and brought them back in. Damian had calmed and found the whole thing funny and then had confirmed that it was Horror Movie night and it was supposed to be a Vampire film tonight.

Richard, Sin hanging off of him, and everyone else had made snacks and Richard had sent Jamil for a movie he'd returned with an old Dracula film saying they were out of everything else.

Richard was sitting on his couch with Sin nearly in his lap clinging to him, his arm was around Sin's waist. Sin was sitting side ways on the couch blocking anyone from joining them. Damian, Nathanial and Jason had made a camping ground out of his floor moving his table saying that it was tradition that they camp out in front of the T.V. Jamil and Shang-Da had opted for the chairs.

Jean-Claude had called halfway to the Circus saying not to come that they were having issues. So Richard had been forced to bring everyone here. Jean promised to send him gas money because he'd wasted so much. Richard had hung up on him after yelling that he didn't need it. Sin was staring in awe at the t.v. when someone knocked on the door making them all jump. Richard paused the movie and Shang-Da went to get it. It was Byron who instantly joined the others on the floor.

"Why are you here?" Richard asked not un pausing the movie. "I don't make a habit of having Vampires in my house. "

"I was sent to give you gas money and keep an eye on Sin . " Byron replied, blinking at Richard. "We all felt him panic earlier. Jean-Claude says he thinks Sin is scared of Anita's power. Also ..." He held two cages up. "Dinner for Damian and Sin. " Sin had the cage in a second and was trying to figure out how to open it Byron normally did this for him. "Jean-Claude said he'd pay the bill if they get blood on anything. " He nodded to where Sin had gotten the cage opened and was about to bite in to his prize a rabbit. Richard sighed. Jean-Claude had a lot to answer for. "I already ate. "

"Go ahead." Richard said to Damian. Sin was already eating happily but was nice enough to try and not get blood on anything. Damian inclined his head and began eating as well. Richard sighed, and unpaused the movie. "How does Anita put up with this every other Saturday. "

" She normally has the whole pard and some of the pack and some vampires over." Jason informed, "Some of the independents come and even some Lions and Hyenas... I think every group comes even the swans. "

"Woman's a saint." Sin said, getting chuckles and nods. Richard privetly agreed with him. "Can we go sometime this is fun?"

Everyone watched Richard wince but smile and nod. Sin beamed. After he was done with his dinner he was back to clinging to Richard.


Richard woke to knocking on his door. He was laying on his couch holding Sin. Damian and Byron were gone probably locked in his basement or the dark attic. Shang-Da was getting up off the floor where the puppy/kitty pile was.

"I've got it." he told his enforcer who couldn't really get up as he had Nathanial thrown across his chest and Jason across his leg. Richard got up only for Sin to wake and grab his hand following him to the door. When he opened it he was looking at Charlotte Zeeman his mother .

"Did you sleep in your clothes last night, dear?" she asked, noting Sin. "A puppy?"

"Yes, " Richard answered to both his mother's questions. "Please come in. " His brother Daniel followed. "We had some problems last night and I had to bring..."

"GET UP AND OFF OF ME!" Sin whimpered hands over his ears at Jamil's yelling. "WAKE UP YOU STUPID WERE LEOPARD!"

"EH!" Nathanial came running into view and hid behind Richard stopping Jamil cold.

"I had to bring some of the others here for the night." Richard finished. "I'll change for Church. "He looked at Jamil . "You just earned yourself baby sitting duty. "

Sin blinked and pointed at himself. Jamil moaned and wished Byron was awake. He began steering Sin toward the Kitchen pulling Nathanial after him and demanding breakfast.

Daniel was laughing. Charlotte looked amused.

"Sin's our newest member. He's had a rough life and often acts like a child. "

"Oh, invite him along. " Charlotte laughed as Richard was suddenly on his back with Sin on his chest. Three werewolves were there trying to get Sin to let go. "Would you like to come to church with us?"

"Sin can't . " Richard stated getting to his feet Sin gave him wide eyes. "It's a church , Sin. Holly Objects..." Sin blinked, " You're part vampire."

Daniel tensed as Sin touched his cross but sighed when nothing happened except a little sizzle because it was silver.

"I'm calling to see if Anita can explain this to me. " Richard said rubbing the back of his head. he looked at Jason, "Try and find him some Church Clothes. "

"Right!" Jason began pull/pushing Sin off.


Richard hadn't been able to get through to Anita, she was still recovering he was also informed of Asher having an animal to call. Hyena's, so the whole group, Damian and Byron aside , were now sitting in the church. Sin looked confused as hell but tried to act like a normal teenager though that seemed to confuse him even more.

"I hate to ask this. " Jamil hissed, they were all in the back. "But can Sin read?"

The whole group looked at him. He pointed next to him where Sin had the Bible upside down and was trying to figure out what everyone was reading.

"A hard life you say?" Charlotte asked hand to her chest she couldn't imagine a child this boy's age not being able to read. She reached over and turned the Bible the correct way. "Exactly, what kind of life. "

Sin was soon mimicking every prayer they said. Richard noted that Nathanial , Jason, Shang-Da and Jamil were doing the same but for different reasons.
