As Claudia, and Charles exited the main hall, Maia started sliding on the floor. "OW! A sleepover at the castle! This calls for a party!" She stopped, and out of nowhere took out her swords and started swinging them.

"Not in here Maia!" Connor exclaimed as just like Maia swinged his sword into the other two. Connor shook his head softly, and rolled his eyes.

The other people giggled along with Toby. Grave cleared his throat. "Well, I guess I'll get going, because the Rainbooms needs a watchful eye with Applejack being there all alone." He chuckled a bit as he walked up the small child gently rubbed the top of his head with a hand. "You have fun big guy. Also, Vault meant every word too Toby. He is proud to be your honorary father." He brought the small child into a warm hug.

Toby sighed softly against his soft shirt, and looked up with a big smile. "Thank you Uncle Grave. I am happy that Vault is my papa. I love you." Reaching up to give him a big hug around his neck.

Grave rubbed at the little boy's back with a hand. "Shucks big guy, I love you too." Patting his back, and very gently breaking the hug.

The spa girls were next to walk up to Toby. They both kneeled down to speak with him. "Well you little cutie pie, me, and Trixie are going to leave as well, so we can get ready to open the spa up for tomorrow. We are very glad we met you Toby and don't you ever let those mean things your dad spoke of you bother you, okay little guy?" Sunset gently reached out a hand to rub at the little boy's arm as Trixie rubbed at the other arm.

He smiled softly, and blushed. "Thank you Sunset, and Trixie for being my friends."

They d'awwed, and gently pulled the small child to give him a warm hug with an arm around his shoulders. They both gave him a gentle kiss on his cheeks as they stood back up on their feet. "You are very welcome little sweetie." Trixie said as they looked at the others waving a hand before turning to walk out of the palace doors.

Connor carefully shut the doors behind the last two departing guests. "Well, everybody, shall we head to the ballroom, and start the fun?" They all nodded. Prim gently lifted Toby in her arms as the group headed toward the ballroom.

East Liverpool Police Department

"Cough.. cough.. cough. Would you please stop?" James begged in an annoyed voice as Bobert just pulled his head out of a bucket of water while a Nightmare is holding him upside down with its teeth.

He chuckled at the man's pleas. "Haha.. how come so soon? I am having too much fun." As the Nightmare plunged James back into the bucket of water.

James screamed with his head underwater. "MMMMMPH!"

Bobert snapped his fingers, and the Nightmare brought him out of the bucket, and it placed James on the ground with his wrists still cuffed with the handcuffs Tommy had him apprehended with. "Fine, spoil sport." He said with an annoyed sigh. He got up from the chair he was sitting in the corner of the room, and walked over to the floor. "To show you there aren't any hard feelings for ruining my fun, here is some fresh punch." He took out a clear glass with a pink colored punch, and a bendy straw sticking out appeared. "It is a very special recipe by one of my friends." He brought the glass over to James.

"Thanks I guess." He said in an aggravated tone as he took a sip of punch through the straw. "Hmm.. that is pretty... HOT.. HOT... HOT!" He was panting heavily gasping for air to try, and cool his burning mouth.

"Oh, do you need some water there pal?" Bobert asked with a chuckle. James nodded furiously as Bobert threw away the glass of punch, and replaced it by a water bottle with a sprayer nozzle on it. He pinched his index finger, and thumb together to jet spray the water into James' mouth.

"Aah.. cough. cough.. cough.. al-alright that.. cough.. cough.. that's enough!" He yelled.

Bobert threw away the water. "Haha.. this is just too much fun." He chuckled as he smiled mischievously at James, and tapped his fingers together in a thinking manner.

In The New Rad Ballroom

The group of Warriors, kids, and Toby was all seated around in a big circle on satin pillows in the now fully decorated royal ballroom of New Rad Castle thanks to Maia's planning. The dragons decided to go on ahead, and go flying, so they won't be apart of the sleepover which they though was too girly. Connor had a small safe fire set up in the middle of the circle, so they could use to fix smores.

Connor, and Claudia assembled the smores for everybody with the help of Kin. Claudia grabbed one towards the little boy that sat between her, and Prim. "Here you go dear, I hope you enjoy." Giving him a warm smile as he politely accepted it.

He smiled up at her. "Thank you Auntie Claudia." He took a bite out of his smores, and made a muffled sigh of satisfaction. The blending of chocolate, melted marshmallow, and graham cracker felt warm, and soft in his mouth as he chewed his first bite. He swallowed his first bite before speaking as he smiled up at Prim. "Mmm.. this is very good Auntie Prim, thank you for letting me have one."

Prim leaned her head down, and nuzzled at his cheek, and gave him a bright smile. "Of course sweetheart, smores are always fun during a sleepover, especially now with my precious little one." He blushed as he went back to eating at his smores.

Alicia sat across from the small child gave him a warm smile, and asked. "Sweetie, have you ever had a sleepover before?"

Toby looked up at her and the others as he sighed deeply and shook his head. "No. I never really had any friends back home. Other kids would pick on me for being smaller than them." Giving Alicia a sad smile.

She frowned at the little boy. "Aw.. geez, I sure am sorry Toby. People can be such mean jerks sometimes, but don't let them get to you sweetie, because you have a big heart." Giving him a soft reassuring smile.

He smiled back, and nodded. "Thank you Auntie Alicia." He finished his smores as everybody else did.

Connor swallowed his last bite as he sighed warmly. "Alright, smores are done. Now let's see, what is next?" He put a hand up to his chin in a thinking manner as he gave a soft smirk. "Hey, Claudia."

Claudia looked up as she was wiping her mouth in a napkin. "Yes Connor... oomph." Connor threw his satin pillow in Claudia's face.

Toby giggled a little. "Hehe.. Big Brother Connor got you good Auntie Claudia.. hehe."

Claudia giggled, and smiled sweetly at the small child. She gently laid a hand over his shoulders, and leaned her head down to whisper into his ear. "Oh, so you think that was good Toby? Just watch this dear." Giving him a wink as she brought out a pillow, and heaved it at Alicia.

Alicia scrunched her eyes, and shook her head. "Oh, haha.. you want to play like that, huh Claudia?" Alicia licked her lips, and got off her pillow picking it up with her hands, and turning her to the side heaving the pillow which it Prim.

"Eep!" Prim squealed after the pillow connected with her face. She shook her head giggling a little.

Toby looked up at her. "Are you okay Auntie Prim?" As he gently rubbed at her forehead to make sure.

Prim looked down at him with a warm smile. "Auntie Prim is okay sweetie, there is no need to worry." She gave him a kiss on the top of his head.

Toby blushed as he carefully got off of his pillow, and picked up. He eyed Alicia. "Okay Auntie Alicia, this is for hitting my Auntie Prim with your pillow." He held the pillow by the two corners, leaned to the right with a little bend, and finally leaned forward to the left heaving the pillow toward Alicia which Luu Luu jumped in front of.

"Uh. uh.. uh... not, so fast there buddy." She chuckled as she grabbed the flying pillow in her arms. She gave the small child a soft, yet mischievous smile. "Let me show you how to really toss a pillow Toby." Chuckling some more as she placed it in between her teeth, and eyes the little boy.

Toby swallowed deeply, and waved his hands in front of him. "No-no Luu Luu, please... oomph." Luu Luu heaved the pillow at Toby causing him to stagger back a bit, but Prim, and Claudia made sure to catch him with their hands, so he wont' fall. Toby shook his head, and laughed happily.

Claudia patted his back with her hand then looked all around. "Oh, it is, so on!" She grabbed the pillow with her hand, and got ready to heave it.

Vault threw her arms up in the air. "Aw.. yea, pillow fight!" He reached down to grab his pillow, and threw it toward Maia hitting her on the side of the head.

Maia shook her head clear, and then looked up at Vault. "YAY! Pillow fight!" She picked up the pillow, but started to punch at it. "Come on pillow, fight me."

The others looked at the female mercenary, and shook their head laughing.

Vault facepalmed himself, and rolled his eyes. "Uh, Maia, the idea of pillow fight is not to fight the pillow itself, but to hit other people with the pillow." He said, chuckled softly.

"Ooh, okay then." Maia grabbed the pillow in between her hands, and began hitting Connor with it. "Haha.. this is fun!"

Connor grabbed his pillow, and started using it to hit Maia as both Warriors laughed happily.

Kelly got off her pillow and threw it at Crystal hitting her face. "Yes, direct hit." She chuckled.

Crystal shook her head. "Oh, okay, I see how you want to do Kelly. Take this." She picked up her pillow, and threw it at Kelly hitting her in the face. Suddenly the two walked toward each other as they started hitting each other with their pillows.

Luu Luu decided to join in by greeting her own pillow, and started playfully attacking the two with her pillow.

Scarlett, and Layla looked at each other with sly grins. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking Scarlett?" Scarlett nodded as they each grabbed their pillows with their hands. "Charge!" As they ran toward the three girls to join in on the fun.

Toby giggled at the sight as he watched Vault suddenly throw her pillow at Alicia. "Oh, alright Vault, now you want to take the bull by the horns don't ya?"

"You bet princess. Try and get me, nah. uh. uh. uh. uh." He stuck his tongue out at Alicia taunting her. He moved back, and forth.

Toby laughed, and smiled at the two as he felt a pillow hit him in the back making him stagger forward a bit but keeping his balance.

Claudia giggled, and blushed. "Oopsie, sorry dear. I was trying to throw my pillow at Alicia."

Toby picked up the pillow. "Haha.. that is okay Auntie Claudia." He giggled as she looked at the little boy with a mischievous grin. "Aw.. haha.. so you want to attack your Auntie Claudia with a pillow, don't you little dear?"

Toby gave a little smile as he looked at Claudia, who look at him mischievously. "Hehe.. Auntie Claudia what are you.. who." He felt her lifting the pillow he was holding in the air making his arms raise in the air.

Prim looked a little bit worried. "Um.. Claudia.. um.. what are you doing with him?"

Claudia giggled. "Oh, don't worry Prim dear. I just want to se if my cutie little nephew is ticklish on other places, besides his cute little hands." She grinned at Toby, and reached out her hands to his sides, and started rubbing up, and down.

"Au.. hahaha.. Auntie Claudia.. hehehe.. no.. hahaha." He couldn't hold his laughter in as Claudia gently rubbed along his sides with her hands.

Prim blushed as she giggled. "Aww.. hehe it looks like my precious little one is ticklish."

Claudia continued to rub up, and down his sides gently in a fast motion. "Aww.. you are just, so adorable dear.: She gently kept his arms up with her magic as she tickled him.

"Hahaha.. p-please... hehehe.. Auntie Claudia... hahahaha... s-stop... hehehe." He felt tears of laughter, and happiness start to sting his eyes.

Claudia flicked her hair and tilted her head to the side. "What was that dear? I don't think I quite heard you." As she continued to rub at his sides up, and down. She gave him a blushing smile.

"Hehehe.. hahahaha.. p-please... stop.. hahahaha.. hehehe.. Auntie Claudia." His tears started to shed as he giggled hysterically.

While Claudia was tickling Toby, Luu Luu caught the sight while pillow fighting with the other four kids as everybody else was having their own pillow fights. "Hey, hey y'all." Luu Luu said as the others did too.

"Hey what Luu Luu, getting tired already?" Kelly asked with a smirk.

"Nah, look at that." She pointed her hand over at Claudia tickling Toby. They d'awwed at the sight and Luu Luu rubbed her hands together licking her lips. "You know guys, I have an idea. Come here." The other four huddled together around the halfling

Claudia smiled softly at the giggling child, and stopped tickling him. "Hahaha.. I couldn't resist precious, you are just so cute." She leaned forward to give him a kiss on the forehead.

Toby panted softly after laughing. "Haha.. that is okay Auntie Claudia. That was fun." He smiled at her brightly as he felt Prim rub up, and down his back.

Luu Luu and the others stood beside each other as she called over to Toby. "Hey buddy, come here for a second." Giving him a grin.

He nodded as he carefully walked over to them. "Yes Luu Luu?" He watched as the other four girls carefully circled around him. He swallowed deeply as he gave a shy smile.

Luu Luu reached up a hand, and rubbed at his arm. "Don't worry buddy, we just want to.. tickle ya." As she very gently grabbed him with her hands, and laid him down nuzzling at his tummy. He squirmed, and giggled under her as she moved her hands over to the side as she sat on her haunches, and held her hand on his tummy.

Kelly walked over as she looked down at the little boy wiggling cutely under Luu Luu's hand. "Yea, it is always fun to be tickled." She smirked at him as she sat on her rear on his other side, and brought one of her hands forward to brush along his side.

"Hehehe... n-no.. hahaha.. not there Kelly.. hehehe.." He grabbed at his side where Kelly was tickling, but Scarlett, and Diamond came up and gently took his hands into their hands.

"Nuh.. uh. sweetie pie, you can't get away that easy." Scarlett gave him a grin, and giggled softly.

"That is right little guy." Layla gave him a grin as well, and both leaned down to nuzzle at his cheek.

Kelly went back to brushing his side with her hands as Luu Luu nuzzled at his tummy. Crystal smiled at the sight as she carefully walked up beside Kelly, and got a feather from her back pocket.

"Now it is my turn to tickle him."

She walked to his feet.

"Hehehe... o-oh.. hahaha.. please not there Crystal.. hehehehe.." He begged as he squirmed at the tickling, laughing harder.

"Sorry cutie, I didn't hear you. Did you say please tickle you here?" As she lowered the feather, and started brushing it up, and down on the sole of his feet.

He laughed hysterically unable to speak as he flailed his little legs, and tried to move his arms which was firmly, yet gently held by Layla, and Scarlett.

"Hahahaha... hehehehe.. pl-please stop... hahahaha."

Luu Luu lifted her head, and leaned her head toward Toby to listen. "What was that buddy?" Giggling softly as she smirked. Kelly continued to brush brush her fingers against his side, Crystal tickled his feet with a feather, and Layla, and Scarlett nuzzled at his cheeks.

"Hehehehe.. I said.. hahahahahaha... please... hehehehe.. stop." He smiled brightly as he laughed.

Luu Luu looked up at the others with a soft smile as she rubbed at his tummy with her hand. "Alrighty girls, I believe our little buddy has had enough." She gave him a big smile as she leaned her head down to his tummy, and blew a raspberry.

Toby panted softly as he reached up to wipe a tear of laughter from his eyes. "Haha.. that was more fun the second time." Luu Luu helped him stand up as they all huddled around him in a group hug.

Prim, and Claudia d'awwed at the six young ones as Prim made her way over to the child. She smiled warmly down at him, and asked softly. "Toby sweetheart, would you like to go to the little boy's room before we get ready for bed?"

He nodded as he let out one last giggle. "Hehe.. yes Auntie Prim." He smiled up at her happily as she kneeled down for him to climb up. Prim giggled as she walked out fo the ballroom to head toward one of the palace bathrooms with the little boy.

After a few minutes of returning to the ballroom, Prim, and Toby found that everybody was all together in a pillow fort. Toby looked at the carefully made structure as they walked into it. It was in the sphere with a hole in the front of it for the others to exit, and enter through. The fort was made out of all white plain fluffy pillows as the group was laying on their red satin pillows.

Prim carefully laid down on an available pillow as Toby carefully slid onto the one beside her. Alicia, and Luu Luu sat on the opposite side of the little boy with Claudia, and Crystal sitting on the opposite side of Prim. Maia, and Kelly was beside the two Warriors, Scarlett, and Layla sat next to Claudia, and Crystal, and Connor was in the middle with Kaguya between him, and Vault.

Connor looked at the small child across from him. "Toby, me, and everybody have been talking to each other while you, and your Auntie Prim was gone. After what we have seen the horrible acts of what your daddy has done against you, and your mommy, we would like to share a special song with you." Giving him a warm smile. "Would you like to hear it?"

Toby smiled warmly at her and looked around at everybody. "Yes Big Brother Connor, I would like that."

Connor nodded as she looked around at the group. "All of us, and even the girls have been working on this for you Toby ever since you came here to East Liverpool, and became apart of our family. We want you to know that we all love you with all our hearts, and that we will always be here for you." She smiled softly at him as she looked around at the others. "Are you ready guys?" They all nodded as they all sighed, and turned their attention to Toby.

After they sung Toby's eyes were glazed with tears of joy. He smiled at everybody, and reached up to wipe at his tears with a sniffle. "Thank *sniff* you all. That was a very pretty song, and it made me feel happy. I love you all!"

Prim laid an arm over his small form, and nuzzled at his cheeks as she, and everybody replied in unison.

"We all love you too Toby!" They all said with a soft yawn.

"Well, everybody I guess it is time to get some shuteye." Connor said as he laid down. The Dragon girls snuggled up against their friends, Layla, and Scarlett slept close to each other, Maia flipped over on her back to sleep, and Prim laid her arm over Toby as he curled up on his pillow.

"Goodnight everybody." Connor whispered as they all slowly drifted off to sleep.

The moon rose majestically against the darkened sky as it radiated it's beam of warmth through the ballroom, and showered the group with comfort.
