-Mal took a bite of his meal as he watched Angel rush over to Star's side. Star looked like someone who had just escaped pursuers. He began wondering about who could have made this woman run to exhaustion. He took another drink and felt more of the alchohol affecting him. When Angel came back he replied- I was offering to help you find what you were looking for... Who is she? -He nods his head towards Star-

She blinks confused by his comment, having forgotten the the treasure for the moment. "She is another of my sisters."

OOC: Sorry been busy for a few days. He jerked awake from a drunken stupor, his loosely tied black boots nearly falling from his feet, he had dozed off on top of the case of Sake. He half heartedly tied the boots, tucking the baggy black pants into them. He stood straightening the sleeveless sweater he wore and wearily grasped the half full bottle drinking once more just after uttering
"Best way to get rid of a hangover...keep drinking"
He nearly absorbed the heat of the rice wine as the smooth liquid traveled down his throat. He sighed out generally, there were new faces in the bar which was now apparently fixed.
"Oooh..."
murmured the drunk stirring from his slumber and rising to a stand. He began walking towards the bar where most of the people were, except Angel tending to someone else.
"...Did I miss something...like Everything?"
he asked scratching lazily at the back of his head.

Hearing the hustle and bustle of Star barging in pulled Daisy out of her daydream about her friends. She may never know or for that matter understand what had been doing on. She just was happy that some normalcy could be had. After watching Angel put the cover over her sister, Daisy pulled up a chair and started singing Star's favorite songs to her as she slept. Hoping this would help her sleep better. Daisy couldn't bear to see her tossing and turning as if in a nightmare that just wouldn't stop. "Who doesn't know what I'm talking about
Who's never left home, who's never struck out
To find a dream and a place of their own
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
Many preceed and many will follow
A young girl's dream no longer hollow
It takes the shape of a place out West
But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed
She needs wide open spaces
Room to make her big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes.
She traveled this road as a child
Wide eyed and grinning, she never tired
But now she won't be coming back with the rest
If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test
She needs wide open spaces
Room to make her big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
As her folks drive awa, her dad yells, "Check the oil"
Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leavin' my girl"
She said "It didn't seem like all that long ago"
When she let her own folks know
She needs wide open spaces
Room to make her big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes" -- The Dixie Chicks

As she finished her lullaby to Star, she heard Yang and turned to him, "Not much. The protection is back in order." she said. Thinking to herself, she realized how drunk Yang was, "Would you like something to eat with that sake?" she asked.

After a while, what seemed like days to an exhausted girl, she heard a familiar voice singing. It was enough to calm her down. She felt good enough she could function until she could get a full nights rest. As she stirred, she recognized the safe haven. Star thought there was never going to be a chance to return to her home. The monster that was following her must have lost his way and that, she could live with!
Slowly she started humming along as Daisy finished her song. Stars song. Daisy's song. Angel's song. It described their life and how they left home to a tee.
As she could, she sat up and greeted everyone, "Um... HI!" she said blushing. She didn't know some of the patrons but she sure would get to know them she thought.

Hearing her older sister's voice, she all but knocked her over embracing her! Tears flowing! "DO NOT EVER DO THAT AGAIN!" she shouted to her sister. She didn't think she could survive another hiatus such as this last one. All the abuse the sisters went through when they were younger was bad enough.
Continuing to embrace her sister, she started giggling with joy! She was so happy to have her sister back! It was almost as if she could feel something, or maybe it was someone tickling her.

Star felt like maybe Daisy had thought she left on a voluntary basis. That was not the case. It was Crow. When she destroyed the bar and all of Angel's family, she came after Star. She had to run for her life. She wasn't sure when she had lost Crow, but after that, some guy kept creeping behind her and then when he turned into a monster, she knew it was one of Crow's old long lost friends. She ran like the dickens. She only knew that if Angel had durvived that she and Daisy could restore the protection, so she just had to run until it felt safe enough in the outskirts of the forest. When she felt that there was safety in those woods, she could run in a round about fashion back to the bar. "You think I did this on purpose little sister? You think I would leave you? You think I would leave Angel in her deepest hour of need? No, none of those would be the truth. Why Crow didn't attack you I don't know, but she came after me when she was finished with the rest of our family. I did what I had to do to keep me alive and hope with all of my heart that she would leave you alone." she replied.
Getting back to her former self, she used a feather from the down on the pillow she was napping on to tickle Daisy. It was fun to torment her little sister. Just like old days. When she had tickled her sister just to the point of no return, she abruptly stopped, went and grabbed a coffee mug and poured herself a cup o joe. "mmmmm"

Giggling out of control, she now knew that someone was tickling her.... WITH something... And she knew who it was!.
"Hee hee hee st hee hee hee op hee hee hee I hee hee gotta hee hee PEEEEEEEEEE!" was all she could get out of her mouth in between laughing spasms.
All of a sudden out of no where the tickling stopped. It was all she could do to make it to the bathroom before she exploded...
She could be heard relieving herself all the way in the main room, "AHHHHHHH!" as she walked back out into the main room she mumbled "Much better, now it's get even time" to herself.
She grabbed a glass of soda and perched at the bar. It was nice to have the place hoppin' again.

A smile from ear to ear could be found on Star's face as she found her way back to her spot behind the bar. She was HOME. And she wouldn't be leaving ever again! Nothing would drive her away again. She would stand her ground.
As Daisy came to the bar, Star decided to play nice for a while, she had put her sister through too much in her short life. "Feel better?" she asked as she finished her coffee and put the mug in the sink.

"Much, thanks" she replied. "I am sorry for the way I attacked you. I shouldn't have." she said to her sister.
For something to do she played with her hair. She was nervous again, and couldn't quite place why. It just seemed a little odd. "Care to tell me what your adventure was like?" she asked hoping that this might be the source of the nerves.

Well... -Mal finished off his second glass and washed it down with a bite of his chicken salad- I feel like I'm missing some critical information but I'm too buzzed to care. May I have another refill and if it's on the menu I'd like what she had before you had to run off... You know with the giggling and the bouncing -He winked at Daisy-

Seeing the nervous look on her sister's face and wishing she could make it better, but knowing she couldn't, she simply replied what was the truth, "There's not more to tell. I ran and I ran and I ran. I finally felt the protection go back into place, and that's how I knew that it would be safe to return."
Rummaging around behind the bar for busy work, she found the clipboard that used to be used for inventory and pulled out a piece of paper to doodle on. She wasn't particulary artistic, but she could mold icing and cake into some really cool creations.

Feeling a little disappointed with the whole thing, she had to accept her sister's reply. "Ok. I was just hoping that you could answer one question. Why it happened. I guess that's something that will come out in time." she said.
She sat there and watched her sister doodle. Star didn't realize how good she was at artsy things.

-Feeling a little ignored Mal dropped some more gold onto the bar and hopped over it effortlessly, although he did seem to waver a little after he had landed- Ok which one of these was the ale cask? -He grabbed his glass and starting looking for the drink he wanted-
