"Hey, Cat, how did this morning go?" Magnus asked as he entered the little trailer.
"Well, and you have these three," Cat looked back at where three people were feeding the animals.
They all looked up to see what was happening and saw a new person taking over for Cat.
"Okay, kiddos. Magnus will take over from here. Just do what he tells you, and stay out of trouble. Your time here will pass smoothly," Cat said, and then she left.
Magnus looked at them, and they looked at him.
"Okay, my name is Magnus, which you know. What are your names?" Magnus asked.
The only girl stepped up.
"I'm Iz."
Then the guy with the strange eyes spoke up.
"I'm Jace."
Iz, Jace, and Magnus looked at the last guy with the earrings. The guy had been checking Magnus out the whole time and got lost in looking at him.
"Hello, earth, to Alec. You in their big brother?" Iz asked.
Iz and Jace laughed, and Magnus just smiled. Alec looked at his sister and brother. Then back at Magnus. Alec's face was getting pinkish.
"Alec. I'm Alec."
Magnus smiled at him.
"Well, are you all done feeding the animals?"
"Yes," Iz, Jace, and Alec said.
"Well, I need to check anyway. Sorry, guys, but we had others say yes and didn't."
They moved out of the way so Magnus could check.
"Wow, guys, you all did a good job. Well, we need to feed the babies now. Follow me."
They left their current location and went to another building. They did what Magnus told them. They filled 2 to 3 bottles at a time and went to feed all the baby kitties and puppies. Magnus and Iz worked together, and Jace and Alec worked together. Finally, it was lunchtime.
"You can leave or stay on your lunch, but you need to be right back at work in an hour," Magnus told Iz, Jace, and Alec.
Magnus started to walk off.
"Hey, would you like to go get lunch with us?" Alec asked Magnus.
"No, I think I'm going to go help Cat in the vet building, but thank you anyway," Magnus said and walked off.
Alec watched him walk away.
"Come on, big brother, let's go eat."
