"He is a nice looking boy. He looks like Summer's brother. Her dead twin....I saw pictures of them before...." He rolled over.
"Won't be around for breakfast. Goodnight..."

Alicia stroked his back gently. "Goodnight love. Sweet dreams. Love you. See you in the morning." She laid against her pillow and just listened to his breathing before she closed her eyes.

The next morning. Early, very early. Around 4:30 in the morning. Hushed voices could be heard downstairs. Then a door opening and closing. The sound of a car starting.

Alicia woke around 6:30am in the morning, her usual. Andros was gone like he said he would be. She made the bed quickly then went ahead and cleaned up the living room. She took the towels that Andros had used last night and put them in the wash. She went around the house just cleaning up until Allegra woke up. Then she fed and bathed the baby and went on doing chores around the house.

"I'm home...." Andros called when he finally arrived. With him was a little boy. His little boy, Orion. He lead the boy into the kitchen and had him take a seat.
"What's for dinner?" He asked as he sat down across from Orion."

Alicia walked out. "I am making a salad right now. I have spagetti cooking and garlic bread in the oven along with some brownies." She looked to Orion to Andros. "Andros.... Whats going on? Is that who I think it is?"
Allegra squealed happily at her daddy from her play pen.
"Be careful with her. She teething and is chewing on everything." she said walking further out.

"Orion....Alicia...Alicia....Orion. Did you make the sauce or is it the jar stuff?" Orion's arms were crossed and he looked miserable.
"I don't care who she is! I WANT MY MOTHER!"
Andros was up and pouring some drinks. "Well that's too bad..." Orion stood up quickly. His chair falling backwards and crashing to the floor.
"I HATE YOU! I WISH WE HAD NEVER COME HERE TO SEE YOU! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Andros sipped his juice.
"I hate pineapple juice!" He groaned.

"Hey there Orion.... Its been years since I last saw you. You were still in diapers and liked calling all the women you saw 'bad mom'. You also peed in Piper's plants a lot which is probably why many of them died. Do you remember Piper, your aunt Piper?"
Allegra bounced in her pen squealing happily.
Alicia looked at Allegra and picked her up. "Apple juice is in the fridge. There's chocolate milk. Orion do you want some chocolate milk or something." She looked to Andros and stood, waiting for an explanation. This was confusing.

Orion glared at Alicia then started for the back door. Andros quickly grabbed at him. He blocked Orion's blow.
"Hey!"
By now the boy was turning blue. Sprouting a tail and another set of legs. The stalk eyes growing later. First they just looked like stalks or annetane then the eyes seem to bloom.
At the end of it the boy was a small Andalite. Scythe tail raised and close to Andros. His stance was an aggressive one.

Alicia held onto Allegra tightly. "What the hell is going on? Both of you just quit it! Orion you just need to calm down. Its either that or I am calling Erebus to come over here and deal with you both."
Allegra began to cry and screaming hearing the commotion going on. Alicia immediately began to try and comfort the crying infant.

A stare down followed this all. Neither male willing to surrender. Several minutes passed. Slowly he began to shift back.
"I'm not staying here with you. I hate you. These people....they are NOT my family."
Andros shrugged. "Don't stay then. You explain to your Mother why you disobeyed her. A good soldier never disobeys a direct order." Andros looked at Alicia.
"No need to call Erebus....I am handling this."
"Ha! Yeah right Nothlit!"

Alicia glared at Orion. "For someone being eight years old you have the attitude of a teenager. God. Lose the tude." She looked at Andros. "You know a good punishment for him would be having him explain everything to Piper. She could make him lose that tude real fast." She looked at Orion. "Don't insult your father. If you have nothing nice to say then keep your mouth shut. You are giving me a headache and making her cry." She shook her head at them and took a sniffling Allegra into the kitchen while she was making grabbing gestures at her father as her mother carried her off.

"Like I care about you or that ugly little bald thing in your arms!" Andros snatched Orion by the arm.
"Get dressed and go up to the attic." Orion struck Andros in the chest. Hard enough to make Andros grunt. He shoved the boy backwards.
"Go."
Orion left the clothes and went on upstairs. Good. He could morph and get the hell out of this horrible place. Find his Mother. Return to space. Away from these freaks.

Alicia put Allegra into her chair and strapped her in she came out and looked at Andros. "So are you going to tell me what's going on now?" She figured it had something to do with yesterday and why he was gone in the morning. She put her shoulder against the door frame.

"I have Orion now....indeifinitely...." Andros sighed. "Everything is a mess. Summer will come for Orion...hopefully. Then we can return to our life." He rubbed his forehead.
