Arc watched silently as the car interacted with Brook. Worry still plain on his face. There was not much he could do at the moment Though. Once he was on the Jet, he could get her some water and get an ice pack on her forehead. He looked to Ion before his brother exited. "get some water and ice ready for me please." he said quickly. Ion Looked at Arc, and then glanced at Brook briefly, before nodding and exiting, quickly entering the jet soon after Felyss, and his son. He Kissed Felyss lightly, before grabbing a ice packet and some water for Brooklyn.

Arc watched Brook exit, and went to move pausing for a moment. He looked at the snake eyes. "thank you Medusa for all you help. Be safe, it would be nice to interact with you on better terms." he smiled lightly then exited. He brushed Brooks hair from her eyes and then swept her into his arms. He moved quickly up the steps and into the jet. Once brook was safely in her chair, he kissed her forehead and poked his head out, giving a wave to the car, and pulling the door shut. He signaled for the pilot to take off immediately. He hoped Medusa would be alright, then he turned back to his lady. Brook was the only one who successfully made him bear his emotions and heart on his sleeve. Anyone else he could hide was he was feeling, but her.. it was like flipping though a image book.

He knelt by Brook and placed the ice pack in a towel and pressed it against her forehead. he grabbed a water bottle and opened it," drink this Brooklyn, you need it." he said softly.He Loved this woman too much to loose her. He refused actually. he glanced at ion whom was hugging both Felyss and Elion. the pilots assistant warned them of take off, and that they needed to be seated. Arc sat next to Brook, holding the ice pack still. His free hand taking hold of hers. The flight to Japan was a lengthy one. Hopefully Brook would recover before they arrived. perhaps get sleep that her body so desperately needed.

Medusa sat there watching them climb into the jet and begin taxi down the door way. The cars door slowly lowered fitting back down against its body once more. The only thing that mattered was its creator remaining alive. As long as that happened and part of its computer remained intact Medusa could always be rebuilt. The cars back tires squeeled as it spun around promptly turning to face the coming threat, the heavy cast of night fall slowly crawling over it. Besides... there was more than one way for this AI car to survive. Soon as the sounds of cars made its way onto the run way the lights of the mustang flipped on high beams glaring at the oncoming cars in an almost snake like manner. Besides... it was hard to hunt something you couldn't see. And with a simple shift the mustangs body shifted from an electric blue to a deep black. And merely vanished into the night, hail fire of rounds sounding.

Brook was lucky Arc had come along when he had, she had been doubting her ability to stand much longer than she was. Though the feel of something well not moving in a chaotic manner like Medusa had was indeed nice. Even with the rumble of a plane prepairing for take off. Her gaze shifted slightly merely watching everyone within the jet. Watching her sister tremble slightly in her seat, one hand within Ions, the other firmly but gently around that of Elions. Her gaze however more or less firmly locked on her son, as if in a sense attempting to find something had harmed him. Brooklyn found her gaze softening slighty, this was her fault in a sense. She had been appart of some justice system that was more corrupt than hell. But... she had been so young at the time when she signed on, the false promise of glory and doing something good for her town was all she needed, and not the fine print at the base of the contract she found years later.

Brooks gaze shifted around at the feel of the ice pack against her head. And here was Arc, worried for not only her own safty but the life within her. She couldn't help but crack a slight smile before laughing slightly even though it came out slightly strained. "Hell of a way to start a family huh?" She voiced lightly her hand reaching out some how managing to hold the bottle enough that she could raise it to her lips and tilt it back enough to get some water down. She had barely set the bottle down on the arm of the chair before the woman finally seemed to subcome to what her body wanted. Drifting off asleep within the chair, her head tilting to fall against Arc shoulder.

Arc blinked at Brook after she made her comment. He cocked his head, his long ebony locks sliding over his shoulder. His mouth let out a surprised chuckle. Mostly because he was relieved that she had enough spark to make a comment like that. He sighed, and touched her face lightly, bringing his lips to hers in a light and gentle kiss. The plane was taking off, and he felt Brook's head lean against his shoulder. He held her hand lightly,knowing she would be okay for the time being. His head too leaned back and he closed his eyes. He was exhausted. So much had happened today.. but for now it was over.

He knew that This Rowan guy.. wouldn't stop. It would take them a little while to find out where they had gone. But he had a feeling, once they did, Arc most likely would have to kill to get him off there backs. Arc sighed softly. But was worse, was that Ion and Felyss and little Elion were all in danger too. This family of his...w as pretty screwed up. He wondered how long it would take for Elion to become like Ion or him. The kid was young now, and hopefully wouldn't loose his innocence anytime soon. Arc looked out the window at the sky. perhaps he should sleep. He looked over at Ion and Felyss. "You might want to sleep, its quiet a ways to Japan." he said softly, before leaning back and closing his eyes once more.

So much for being alone with brook. On the brighter side he could talk to Felyss about how to propose to her sister. He wondered if brook would accept. Sleep was winning over the trying thoughts in his mind. He sighed and felt him self slip away into dreamless rest.

~~~~~~~ time skipping the flight~~~~~~~~~

His personal pilots voice came over the speaker. " Mr. Von Rose, wanted to let you know that we will be touching down soon, A car will be waiting to transport you and and your family to the Von rose Estate." Arc opened his eyes at the announcement. Grabbing the mic next to him, he pressed the button replying back. "Thank you Reeves. You have served us splendidly, thank you for that." The pilot smiled to him self. That was the first compliment Arc had ever gave him. 'thank you sir." Arc sat up straight. he had dozed off again. He had taken three naps during the flight. In between the delicious meals the attendants had served, and playing with Elion to keep him entertained while Ion and Felyss dozed.

he felt the plane hit the ground as they touched down. Finally, on solid ground once more. Great.. time to introduce Brook to his parents. his mother had wanted to meet her forever as well as Felyss and Elion. She was a proud Grandmother. His father.. was never satisfied. He was not looking forward to what he would say to her, or him. He Nudged Brook lightly and smiled at the beautiful woman he would hopefully soon call his wife. "Welcome to Japan babe." he said with a small chuckle.

[Mysteriouspoison]

Brook groaned slightly at the nudge before her gaze slowly parted soft blues pin pointing that of Arc before she merely began to stretch. Unlike her counter part she had slept fully through the whole flight here, and oddly felt rather... energized. Though as his words fully sunk in she found herself blinking for a moment. Sitting up she allowed her gaze to slip out the jet window. So... they were in Japan... Seems this flight hadn't been as bad as the one to paris. Though... that still didn't help ease her any on a particular matter. As if to distract herself from such thoughts, she allowed her gaze to fall upon the band aroudn her wrist gingerly touching it with her other hand. There was still nothing about Medusa condition. The car hadn't chime in at all. But... the bracelet was still upon her wrist, so surely the car was still fuctioning... it was... the only piece of home she had left.

Her gaze softend at the mere idea of it before she slowly pushed herself to her feet. She supposed there was no point in dwelling on it now. What mattered was not getting to worked up like she had before. Apparently thats what added the fever in which she had in Medusa. Due to her state currently it would be easy if to stressed, or being to well active to say the least that she could fall victim to sickness from odd things as stress and what not. Her sister had been mindful enough to whistper that into her ear as she passed hand in hand with Elion to step off the plane once she had deemed it was indeed safe enough to do so. Brooklyn shook her head slightly allowing her gaze to slide back to that of Arc. It seems... no matter what they did, both of their lives were not meant to be easy ones.

Thus her hand merely raised from her side, as she offered it to him. "Well... are you going to show me this place or what? Standing here in the plane isn't going to do much for showing me anything." She voiced lightly from where she stood merely watching him. Yes this life would not be easy on either of them, this she could understand well enough. And with her current... perdicament to say the least, she would have to cut back on her normal routines. She couldn't do the whole rush out and have vigorious runs, and or work out like she had before. She would have to be far more careful now that she there was a life within her. Which meant she had to keep that temper of hers in check, stress was not good for the baby as said doctor Felyss. But... as long as she had Arc, she would manage just fine.

[iAnzu]

Arc smirked and stood, brushing a bit of his ebony locks from his face. "all right, all right, cool your heels." he said softly, taking her hand and walking down the step of the jet. They had arrived, and there were two of the family cars waiting for them. One for Ion and Felyss and Elion, the other for Brook and Arc. Arc opened the door for Brook and slid in next to her. It was a five minute drive to the main house. "Welcome to the Von Rose Estate. One of the biggest private lands in Japan." He rolled down the window, to let some of the cooler air from outside into the stuffy car. He looked over at Brook, and smiled lightly before looking out the window spotting Elion's head looking back at their car and waving. Arc let out a small chuckle. Kid was too cute for his own good. He rose his hand and waved, Elion disappeared back inside the car a moment later.

Arc looked over at Brook. They were arriving at the house, pulling into the huge circle driveway. The cars stopped in front of a house that made most mansions look small. Why his parents needed so much space he never knew. He stepped out and held out his hand for Brook before, wrapping it about her waist. "Warning. Your about to meet the parents." he said to her, raising his eyebrow. He glanced over at Ion whom was apparently saying something similar to Felyss.

He Moved up the steps and into the house. There were maids and butlers lining the main hall in a giant semi circle. They bowed to them as they entered. Arc nodded his head to them and stopped before an older gentleman, whom had Arcs white eyes. Ion stopped next to him. Arc dropped his grasp from Brook, Ion did the same to Felyss. Both males stood hands clasped behind there backs. The male before them, was scruffy, like he didn't care to shave or brush his hair. But he was handsome in a ruffled sort of sense. Both Arc and Ion seemed rigid.

The male sneered looking them over. Arc rolled his eyes. "nice too see you too Father." The elder male sniffed. and his gaze landed on Brook and Felyss. he stepped around the boys, and circled the girls. He sneered down at Elion, whom cowered behind his mothers leg. "You could have done better when picking women. Now you have ruined our Genetics with that." He said pointing to Elion. He sneered at Ion. "Wasted sperm." Ion's face Hardened. Arc's did as well. " Elion is wonderful. How dare you judge him." he spat. Ion balled his fists and stepped down towards Felyss. "if anything She made our family better, by watering down your genes." he replied coldly.

"boys..?" A small but strong voice sounded. Ion and Arcs faces immediately changed. A beautiful older woman was walking down the stairs, her golden brown hair bouncing around her. her bright blue eyes looked over them and Huge smile appeared on her face. Both Ion and Arc smiled widely. "My Boys are home!" she practically ran down the remaining steps to embrace both of them. She looked small next to them. The Father fell silent disgust on his face. The woman turned to Brook and Felyss. Her eyes sparkled. " You must be Brook and Felyss. wow they managed to hook some lookers didn't they?" she laughed brightly. She pulled the girls into gentle hugs as well, planting kisses on their cheeks. Her gaze dropped to Elion who was staring at her from behind Felyss. Her Face if possible got brighter. Coaxing Elion out she picked the young boy up and hugged him. "Is this handsome mister my grandson?!" she kissed his nose. "Oh Ion, hes precious! Has his mothers beautiful eyes." Elion giggled hugging the woman. She shot a look at the older male, who actually looked defeated slightly.


"we should move to somewhere more comfortable huh? no need to stand if we don't have to." she said. tickling Elion lightly and kissing his forehead. "do you want to walk with grandmother or Momma?" Elion looked at Felyss with big eyes. The Lady set him down with a laugh. "guess that runs in the family." she smiled at Brook and then walked past ion and Arc patting them affectionately on the cheeks. She moved to her Husband and led him towards the tea room. Flashing a giant smile at all of them. Arc and Ion fell back, wrapping their arms round Felyss and Brook. "welcome to my family" he said with a chuckle.

[Mysteriouspoison]

So... the time to meet the family had arrived. And such an odd way about getting somewhere. Being suffled into two seperate cars, being driven to the place rather than driving themselves. It... felt odd, as if she was supposed to be dolled up or something. Her gaze merely lingered out the window for a period of time, her hand absentmindedly moving to linger over her stomach. This... area was vast, she couldn't recall ever seeing something quiet like this. Even if it was just trees and a few buildings. But... nothing really compared to the building that they were soon driving up to. Was this... there home? As if on cue Arc had confirmed her thoughts. They lived in a place this large? For what reason? She bet most of it was wasted space. Probably didn't even go into all the rooms during the year. God... she knew at one point she was going to get lost within that place eventually.

She stepped out shortly after Arc her gaze flickering to her sister and that of Elion as they did the same. Her gaze then seemed to roll back taking in the actual size of the place with wide eyes. What... was the need for such a large place? She rather liked her cozy pent house. As they moved into the internal workings of the building she found herself almost shrinking at the sight of the maids and butlers. Okay... this stay if they were staying here was going to be extremely awkward having people paid to weight on her hand and foot. She much rather get things herself. However her gaze flicked to Arc stopping shortly after he had looking at him curiously. Before her gaze rolled around to peer at the rough kinda wild looking man that stood before them. Her gaze only shifting to peer at that of Arc as his arm left her side and odd feeling of discomfort welling up within her at that fact.

Her gaze slowly returned to the older male once more, watching the sneer slowly move across his features. And almost instantly Brooklyn own gaze was hardening on the male, seemingly shifting into a more irritated state of mind. She already... didn't like the man if he was sneering at his guests. And the man was looking them over as if they were slabs of meat hanging in the window of a store for people to look at. But she actually found herself twitching slightly at his comment about Elion, let alone Ion's choice in bride. Her mouth parted as if to say something, but Arc beat her to the punch on that matter, with an ever swifter retort from Ion. Boys protected their females, and for that alone she found herself relaxing slightly.

Felyss on the other hand, held a completely different expression on her face, one that edged on the level of a murderer. Needless to say the woman could take an insult to her own being, but insulting her son was a definate no no. Brooklyn didn't need to be beside her to feel the dark aura radiating off her sister. Oh... if that old man kept it up, he was going to have a very different Felyss on his a**. And for a moment Brooklyn found herself smirking at her sisters rage, watching those small hands shake as they balled. Oh... Felyss was trying soo hard to behave that she was. It was pretty amazing the control the woman had when she was attempting to restrain herself it really was.

However both younger women seemed to be pulled from their thoughts, when another voice hit their ears. Their blue gazes swiftly pinpointing the women whom had clearly spoken. Boys were back? Brooklyn found her gaze widening slightly her gaze flicking to Arc watching that smile form on him. Seriously? This woman was his mother? Her gaze whirled back around to watch the woman embrace the two males with slight surprise. Needless to say what she was seeing was not what she had been expecting for their mother. She had figured something more... rough, to say the least. But no... this woman seemed kind and rather sweet.

Her gaze widend slightly in shock as the woman turned her attention to her and her sister. Before she found herself pulled into a hug and actually returning it in her surprise. Felyss however seemed to warm up slightly at the hug from the other woman, even chuckling slightly. The interaction this woman was completely different than what she had expected. And for a moment she found her gaze shifting between her and her apparent husband. How the hell had a a*****e like him managed to hook someone like her. Her gaze shifted to that of Arc as if he held the answer to her question. Her gaze shifted watching Felyss seem all to pleased with how the woman acted with her son. It... was odd to say the least.. to see this going on.

Felyss merely smiled slightly leaning down to pick Elion up, rubbing her nose against his for a moment stirring a laugh from the boy. Cute... Brook found her gaze shifting peering down at her own stomach for a breif moment curious as if they would have the same interaction. However her attention was soon shifting moving to peer at that of Arc as his arm moved back around her once more. "If my sister doesn't beat me to it. Can I strangle your father?" She muttered flatly as she walked along. There mother seemed like a sweet heart really, but their father... just seemed like an a**. But... perhaps that was merely a front that he was putting up. Perhaps the next few moments she would see the true him. Her gaze hardend, those teachings coming back as she seemed to straighten her back, her head becoming rather level. As if to state Bring it on.
