Rosalind had never been to a place like this before... it was something she knew about but never actually had a reason for visiting. After all it was made for the younger crowd, not for adults such as herself. Her heels clicked along the colorful tiled floor not that they could be heard over the noise of the establishment. Things were were so bright, so colorful, so loud but interesting as well. There various sorts of games to play both video games and hands on games as well as all sorts of indoor playground equipment for the little ones to play in.
Hector and Alejo were sitting in their customary spot up on her shoulder and they were trying to look at everything at once making them dizzy as they tried to do so. At her side was Daz who was holding onto her hand lightly, looking back and forth as well but didn't seem as overwhelmed from it all as his brother was. He seemed to be the 'go with the flow' sort from what she'd seen of him so far. A sweet child if a bit to submissive, not wanting to ask for anything, didn't want to be a bother, wanted to help out where he could despite being so young... it was a little odd to her.
Then again it made him a prime candidate for working at Dream if were older... a strange thought she decided then motioned, "Do we want to go and try out the ball pit?" She asked of the boys. It was a rather interesting looking game and the only one that she saw parents being a part of as of yet.
Hector looked toward the pit with huge eyes and started to clap one pair of hands as if to say 'yes, that is what we need to do'. Daz looked that way as well before giving a little nod of his head when it seemed that it was what Hector wanted to do. If Hector wanted to he should agree so his brother got what he wanted.

Operation find "little Miss. Watermelon" application was in effect. Millie convinced her dad that she wanted to sing on the new virtual three-d karaoke experience machine. Little did he know that she had other plans?
So yes now she had to go through with the crazy karaoke part , little sacrifice for a greater good she thought. She put on the karaoke helmet , and she saw a screen open up before her eyes. She saw an instruction and then heard a voice explain it her. " Your about to experiences karaoke like you never did before" an animated voice told her. " As if you where in the music itself. Up above her was a screen for everybody to see. So as she experienced the audience could watch it. "Please select a song" Millie reached out her hand and went through the list of options. The virtual gloves she had on aloud her to really feel the rolling through the songs. She found one she liked "Fundamental Things" by Melinda Doolittle.
Gabriel was the only one watching and trying not to laugh though Millie couldn't see any way. She looked like an android with puffy hair. She started to sing and in no time at all people from all over started to gather. Her song commanded the average person.
By the time she hit the verse
"Let's tattoo Bible quotes across both our hips Let's get back to the fundamental things Let's get back to the elements of style Let's get back to simple skin on skin Let's get back, yeah, to the fundamental things Let's dance barefoot over broken glass Slither like a snake does through the wet cold grass"
She almost had the whole arcade watching her, employees and all. Even the owner watched in aww. She was truly captivating.

Daz turned to look toward the screen, his head tilting toward the side as the music cam from the speakers, spreading through the place, entrancing the crowd. He gave a blink and released Rosa's hand so he could take a step closer to her though he ended up getting jostled by someone bigger who wanted to get in closer to see who was singing.
He gave an 'omph' as he landed on his backside then looked up at the one that had knocked him over before looking away. Those who he saw as 'strong' weren't people he found himself able to look at for long not wanting to insult them. An older woman reached down to help him to his feet and then she was gone after looking him over, seemingly not wanting to associate with a lost kid.
When he'd been returned to his feet the tiny boy with the pretty, flower like hair found himself once more trying to figure out how he was supposed to get from where he was to where she was... he didn't know why but he felt the overwhelming urge to meet her... she felt strangely familiar though he knew that they had never met before. Just... the air about her had something to it that drew him... before he could get very far in his quest he was being scooped up by Rosa and found himself rest on her hip while an unamused Hector glared down at him.
They were supposed to be playing in the ball pit! Why did they have to come here to watch someone sing? His ears laid back and he seemed to be sulking while Daz, Rosa, and Alejo watched the screen.

Millie was at the end of her song.
"You can hide out on your rooftop Wishing you had never been Go down to Hal's bar and grill Maybe they'll find our innocence again Let's get, c'mon baby, won't you get on back Won't you get back, won't you get back Oh, get on, these fundas To the funda, to the fundamental things "
She took off her helmet. Most of the people who gathered walked away right after she stopped singing. She herd aloud sound " High Score please smile into the camera and say your your name" the animated voice said. She turned to it moved her left elbow up then said "Millie" she then gave off a star like smile.
The owner of the place walked up close to the stage she was on " Honey wheres your Daddy and Mommy" he asked. She pointed to Gabriel and smiled.
"Young man your daughter should represent our lovely arcade and more" he said with a slimy grin. Gabriel didn't want anything to do with this man , he got up walked to Millie and asked her to jump on his back. Millie was still on the stage and it was easy for her to do so.
Gabriel walked with Millie through the groups of people when he saw someone he knew. It was the women who hung out with Ephesians , Autumnus , and Ryan at the wild life park. People kept trying to get his attention by he just acted like they weren't there. " Rosa , right he shouted" since so many people where making load sounds trying to talk to Millie. Millie was at eye life with Hector and just a few people down. She gave him her now famous wink.

Rosa's tall ears gave a little twitch and she found herself looking back and forth in a confused manner... did someone just call her name? She blinked a couple times before she saw the one that had said her name, "Hello there." She greeted him, trying to place him. She was used to meeting a lot of people and as such it sometimes took her a moment to remember them.
Daz looked at the songstress girl with big eyes when suddenly she was near to them. He couldn't belive it... a star coming off the stage to see them? He tightened his grasp on Rosa and hid his face for a moment against her before peeking out again.
Hector's ears turned forward toward Millie when the woman winked at him. He lifted one of his many hands and waved at her.

" So what you doing here" Gabriel shouted.
The crowd was now just a few people. Millie kept on smiling and looking around. She knew from conversations with her brothers who Hector was. Gabriel kept moving passed people , he would say hi and thanks to the people who just had to see Millie. Once he was face to face with Rosa he reached out his hand for a hand shake. " I'm Gabriel , Ephesians , Autumnus , and Ryans Dad , we had a brief chat before I had to scoot on by" he was flustered and wanted to get away from all the people you could read it all over his face. Some women ran up to them and pushed Rosa out of the way before she could even give him a proper greeting.
"Your daughter needs to try out for "Gaia's got talent". Gabriel moved passed her. He looked around and the ball area seemed empty " I'm sorry about all this , not sure whats happening , but would you be willing to hang out with me for a bit , the ball area seems like a good place to go" He walked off with Millie in that direction . The glass door opened up and he entered in. There was a pall pit , some hoops for shooting. They where made for kids , so it wasn't to high up , and a few other ball like activities.

"Just bringing the boy's out for a day away from my work place... well not that they don't it there, they get so much attention from the other girls." She said with a smile before looking around, giving a soft sign as the people continued to crowd around them. The poor family was going to get crushed by the crowd, "Yeah, ball pit might be a good idea." If they went there they might be able to talk a little easier, less people since there was a limit to how many people and how much weight could be sitting in it at once.
She slipped her feet out of her high heels losing a good give inches worth of height before she slipped into the ball pit. She sank down into them and gave a little giggle as she found herself up to her chest in rainbow colored plastic balls.
Daz looked quite shocked and amazed by them and was glad to start moving through them, finding them up to his waist while standing. He picked up one of the purple ones, smiling, "Pretty." He murmured, having been surrounded by a lot of pretty things since he'd been born into Rosa's care.
Hector released his hold on Rosa, sliding down her back like a cat sliding down a curtain and vanished into the ball pit, only his ears sticking out. The woman started to giggle as she reached around to pull the boy to sit down on her lap so that he didn't vanish completely, "There you go."

Gabriel got into the ball pit when he saw Rosa do it. He felt really silly. Millie seemed to fit right into the ball pit. She looked over at Daz " Your pritty neat , your like me huh?" She asked. Then she picked up a ball and said " Think fast Dad " as she through the ball under hand.
Gabriel caught the ball and laughed harder then he had in many years, he just couldn't stop . He tried to talk to Rosa but only snorts came out. He sat back and let the balls consume him.

Daz moved a little closer to Millie giving her a smile, "Ahh... like you?" He murmured, wondering what she meant. Maybe the singing girl knew why she felt familiar to him? If so he was curious to know why that was, "You seem... more like Mommy." He motioned to the woman with the unicorn horn, "She sings at work."
Rosa couldn't help but give a little giggle as the man in front of her vanished into the ball pit. She blinked a couple times leaning forward as she tried to catch sight of him before she started to giggle again. He was an amusing man wasn't he?
Hector starred at the point the man who had joined them in the ball pit had gone, vanishing from sight in a manner that caused the boy no end to his fascination. He'd just disappeared!

"I'm not like my other brothers and sisters" she shrugged " You seem more like me" she picked up a ball and through it in the air. She was right she didn't come from a place or test tube. She was from some other land though she didn't know where.
Gabriel didn't move for some time he just layed in the balls till the smell of rubber got to him and he sat back up. He took in a deep breath. " So hector is looking good, I remember when E-man and A-Guy use to be like that. All small and cute " he looked at her with sly eyes " but then they grow up " he started to chuckle again.

Daz nodded, "You do seem... more familiar to me." He murmured shyly, "Though I don't... know you. Just... feel it." He felt silly saying such things so he ended up trailing off into silence and just gave the pretty songstress a smile.
Rosa giggled in amusement when Gabriel popped up out of the ball pit, "Ah! There you are." She looked down at the little one sitting on her lap before she gave a nod, "Yes... he is going to be an interesting little one as he grows."
Hector looked up at Rosa and gave a toothy grin and a nod of agreement, yes! He was going to be most interesting he thought. He picked up one ball and Alejo got another and they threw the balls toward their brother, giggling as they bounced off the surprised Daz.

One of the balls hit Millie and she gave off a look like "O noo he didn't" but Gabriel cought the look and gave back a " You better calm down " face so Millie just let it slide. She turned back to Daz "maybe we once knew eachother. So what do you like to do for fun?" she asked.
"I am here and now Im " he crawled under the balls like a snake . He was now at the far left corner " HERE " he shouted like a big dork.

Daz blinked a couple times when he turned to look at his brother then gave a giggle as one of the balls was such a good shot that it had hit both him and Millie. The boy with the flowery hair seemed... quite laid back, as though even being pelted with plastic balls couldn't ruffle him. A good thing as a few more came flying his way... as though Hector had fun teasing his brother.
Rosa lifted her hands to move Hector, lifting the boy up to sit on her shoulders once again. It put him out of reach of the ball pit... though Alejo could still reach. It was more slow going of an attack on Daz and Millie with only the eel able to get the balls for them.
The unicorn couldn't was giggling again as she watched Gabriel snake around under the ball pit, popping up here and there, it seemed he had gotten into the game. It was a good idea to come in here as they were all able to relax and enjoy the place as nobody else was being allowed into the pit as the five of them that were in it were said to be enough.

Millie turned to Daz " Soooo ummm soo ... where did you come from" she didn't know how to ask this question but she knew he wasn't the biological child of Rosa.
Gabriel just goofed off and made funny faces at Hetcor.

"Come from?" He murmured, sounding rather confused as to what she meant. He tilted his head to the side in a thoughtful manner before giving a little shake of his head, "I don't know... just remember waking up with my Mommy Rosa and Hector came in later with some of Mommy's friends." Daz told her in her quiet voice, a little smile on lips.
Hector and Alejo both were giggling at the antics of the man in front of them, Hector clapping all of his hands in a delighted fashion. This man was far to awesome if you asked the Chimera boy!
Rosa lifted a pale hand up to smother a giggle, "Your very good with children aren't you Gabriel?"
