Tohei's eyes fluttered open as he heard voices about him. At first he thought he was just hearing things, since the med lab was usually empty. But upon further examination of the room, his eyes rested upon the doctor. He sat up weakly and spoke, his voice barely breaking the silence. "Ah...Doctor...? Thank you...and... I'm sorry about my behavior earlier..."

Logan put his hand on Mutt's shoulder. "If he doesn't hurt him, it's Daemon's business if he wants to stay. Just so long as Tempest understands that he can't cause mortal harm or take him away."
Tempest waved his hand dismissively. "I know, I know. Are you quite through, then? Because I suggest you teach that cur to stay out of private rooms unless he wishes to see how far I can push that protection spell of yours."
Pontiak turned away and walked for the stairs. "I suppose I'm supposed to thank you for your kindness." He didn't, however, simply starting up for the kitchen, his bare feet silent on the steps.

Mutt sprang up to his feet and began barking at Tempest again, thius time louder and with more anger, he would let no one threaten him and get away with it. He snarled at him, showing his sharp teeth and fangs as a warning
Nathen looked over at Tohei, "I did make a big meal, why don't you and Christian join me and Pontiak?" he asked, as he turned around to exit the room "It's your choice"
Christian looked up at Tohei, "Well, what do you think....should we join them?" he asked, standing up from the floor and wiped some dust off of his jeans

As soon as Mutt began barking threateningly, Daemon sighed. Tempest was his master now...he had to do all that he could for him. Daemon got on all forms and let out a low, feline growl and then a sharp hiss, his claws extending and his tail standing on end. He stood infront of Tempest, glaring at Mutt with his emerald eyes.
Tohei looked at Christian, and his eyes filled with love for a moment before he looked down, embarrassed. "I would like to join them...if....if you could help me stand....and get over there...I'm still a little weak."

"Mutt, Daemon, stop this at once!" He stepped between the two. "Mutt, get to my room now. Tempest.. is a member here." He almost spat out the words they were so distasteful.
Tempest merely smirked, sitting back in his chair. "You don't handle your property there very well, sea smut."
Pontiak looked around the kitchen, getting the plates out and setting the table for himself and Nathen. He dropped down into a chair and picked up a fork to push his food around so perhaps Nathen would think he'd obeyed the order to start eating.

Daemon looked up at Logan as he stepped between them, and he calmed down, then sighed, staring at the floor in shame. He had to do this...for the sake of the children. Daemon backed up and sat at Tempest's feet, refusing to look up at him.

Insulting his master was the final straw, Mutt bounced around Logans legs then jumped in the air, his mouth opened wide as he instictivly aimed his bite at Tempest's throat
Nathen calmly made his way into the kitchen, as he smirked to see that Pontiak had already set the table, "I'll make a slave out of you yet boy" he said with a grin, as he sat down and surveyed the meal of a fair sized ham covered in pineapple slices, mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables and a pie that was cooling on the window ceil
Christian crouched down so that he could give Tohei a piggyback ride, "Here, I'll carry you down" he said with a smile as he looked back at Tohei

Daemon's green eyes widened. He had not been able to foresee Mutt's attack since Logan was blocking his line of vision. Before he could do anything, Mutt was already aiming his attack.
Tohei blushed. "Th-thank you..." He said quietly before climbing onto Christian's back, holding tightly onto him, but not too tight so as to avoid choking him.

"Mutt! No!" Logan turned white as a sheet.
Tempest vanished with a growl. "Oh well, Logan. You had your chance to settle this peacefully." The doors to the balcony blasted open and the wind rushed out of them.
Logan dropped to his knees, his head falling to his hands. "No. Now what? Mutt, why didn't you obey me?!"
Pontiak looked up from under his disheveled hair. "Why, did you drug this?" He pushed the plate away, narrowing his eyes. "I'm not hungry."

Daemon stood up, his eyes wide. "W-wait! Temp-- master! My promise..! Please!!" He looked out the balcony, his eyes wide, his body trembling. Maybe if Tempest chose to take Daemon with him, the children's security would still be insured. He ran out to the balcony and bent over it, looking about wildly, as if he could catch a glimpse of the demon.

Anji remained alone, huddling outside in the garden, somewhere near the main gate. He wasn't really sure what was going on anymore, but he didn't really seem to care. He leaned back on brush, his arms hugging his knees to his chest. His hair was ruffled and now multiple colors.
Despite this, he didn't look upset. Just confused. He wondered where Logan was, and Tohei, and everyone else he'd met since coming here. Especially his master, who he hadn't seem in such a long, long time.

Logan looked up. "Your promise, Daemon? What did he promise you?"

Mutt let out a small yelp as he crashed into the chair and reverted into his human form, "He....he insulted and threatend me....he insulted you....I was only doing as I was trained master" he said, as a few tears rolled down the side of his face
"I drugged nothing" he said as he cut himself a slice of ham and began to eat it, "believe me, I would not drop myself to that level" he said, looking across the table at Pontiak as he forked some mashed potatoes into his mouth
Christian stood up, holding Tohei on his back and slowly walked out of the medroom, keeping a slow pace as he made his way to the stairs, "Be careful, it's going to be a little bumpy" he said

Daemon's eyes widened as he turned around to see Logan. "I..." Daemon swallowed hard. Logan would be angry that he made such an exchange...His mind searched around for a proper explanation..."I..made a promise to him...that...I would make him breakfast every morning if he promised not to...to..." He scrambled for something, anything. "Not to stalk me anymore..." He finished pathetically.
Tohei held on close to Christian's back. He was quite light, so Christian would have very little trouble carrying him... "That's fine, I'm holding on." He replied.
Satoshi walked towards the gate that left the grounds and his eyes caught sight of Anji. He had yet to see this slave before. He decided he had time for a little detour so he made his way over to him, brushing his brown hair out of his deep violet eyes, fixing a smile on his face. "Hello, there." He said by way of introduction.

EDIT: ".. That doesn't sound like Tempest's usual bargains." He looked to Mutt. "When I give you a command, Mutt, it's because there's a reason behind it, all right? You have to trust me enough to listen to what I say. I understand your intentions, but now we're in more danger than ever. If he's upset enough to go to Caine's father and tell him.." he trailed off with a sigh, dropping his face down again, closing his eyes. "I need to go lay down."
Pontiak stared down at the table. "Then what? Why would you do all this? Is it to mock me?"
