 Tempest had been bored as of late, Celest was off with her boyfriend and her other friends were all busy, maybe she could go see Shou, it had been a while since she last saw him and so Tempest started back towards Lenores place, time to raid her cupboards and fridge for food, she would make her and Shou a picnic lunch, the least she could do since she had been away from Shou for so long and there was a clearining in the forrest that was beautiful, wild flowers growing everywhere and the sun streaming right on into it, it would be beautiful and romantic to have the picnic there and noone there to disturb them it would be totally perfect.

 "I'm boooored..." Shou whined, rolling on his back on Starr's couch. He had just returned training with his father and there was absolutely nothing to do. Guinevere was off doing her 'knightly duties' and Hitachi was with some guy somewhere. He was bored and he wanted someone to entertain him but he chose the wrong person to whine around.
"Cease your whining this instant." His father's gruff voice coldly ordered. Shou instantly sat up and bowed deeply to his father.
"Gomen Otou-san."
"If you must complain, complain elsewhere. I don't want to hear it." Sesshomaru turned from his son and continued to toy with the box of pocky he had stolen from Starr. Seeing this as a dismissal for the day, Shou hopped up and trotted out of Starr's small house and plopped down on the front porch with a sigh. "I wonder what Tempest is doing....?"

"Lenore, im raiding the cupboards and fridge, I want to make a picnic for Shou and I" she said as she walked into Lenores home and looked into the living room, noticing Lenore was hunched over her laptop "working on your book?" She asked as she walked over to Lenore who nodded yet didnt look up or anyswer her "then I shall make you some tea and something to eat before I go" she said as she picked up Lenore dirty cup and took it out to the kitchen to start preparing for the picnic and to make Lenore her tea and snack.

Starr blinked at Shou, confused as to why he had picked her up the instant he had seen her and was now demanding he tell her where Lenore lived.
"I uh, don't know exactly... it has to be somewhere in town." She wiggled in his grasp. "Can you put me down?"
"Sumimasen Starr-san..." He set the girl down gently on the porch and handed her the knapsack she had dropped when he had picked her up. He ran his claws through his hair and sighed. "I guess I'll just have to look around town."
"Yeah... sorry about that..." Starr waved after the young anthro as he set off to try and find Lenore's house.

Tempest finished making the tea and looked in the fridge noticingsome sweet buns Lenore had made, something she had gotten addicted too as of late as she was writing a book based in and around Japan, something about 'it was study material' or something like that "I think I will give her a couple of these and take the rest, I can always make some later" she said to herself as she placed the tea, a clean cup and a plate with a couple of sweet buns on it and stuck it on the tray. "Lenore, im going to take the sweet buns in the fridge" she said as she walked in with the tray to the living room and placed it down on the table next to the desk "I think Shou may like them" she said as she gave Lenore a hug and pointed to the tea "it's there so please, don't knock it" she said knowing Lenore could be a little clumsy.
"I will take care of her" Zues said as he walked in, ever since his er...'transformation' due to the strange potion he drank by mistake, he wasn't far from Lenore's side, Lenore had never forgiven herself after what happened no matter how much he said it was not her fault, he found it his duty now to take care of her no matter what even if that meant her never feeling like she would forgive herself, she loved him, he loved her, thats all that mattered and yet, even though, he wished that she would forgive herself.
"Thank you Zues" Tempest said as she reached down, picked him up and cuddled him "you have been eating too much" she giggled, nuzzling the adult moonlit "I will make you something special when I come back alright?"
"Blame my kids! Even as adults they want me to eat everything they dont want to eat or can't finish" he said smiling at her as he nodded and licked her cheek "and thank you" he said as he jumped down from her arms and went and curled up on his bed that was next to the wall, closest to the computer desk yet not closer enough for clumsy Lenore to trip over it.
"Youre welcome" she said as she left to go back to the kitchen to finally start making her picnic.

After racing back to the house to get his sword he had forgotten and, unfortunately, sitting through a lecture from his father telling him he was never to be without it, Shou once more set off for town. It didn't take him long at all to navigate through the forest path and he was grateful to have tagged along with Starr on her many ventures into town to see the other owners. He reached the outskirts of town and drew in a deep breath before stepping out from the cover of the trees and onto the busy street.
"Hm... now... which way should I go?" He pondered aloud to himself, earning him a few confused looks from the people passing by him.

Garnet had decided to go out and do some shopping, now that she was working for her money she wanted to do a little retail therapy, maybe buy that monkey boy of hers a small gift, humming Melodies of Life and paying more attention to the small gift she had brought Zidane that she wasn't paying attention where she was going and bumped into Shou "im sorry!" She said as she stepped back, making sure she hadn't dropped Zidanes gift "I wasn't paying any attention at where I was going" she said bowing a little out of politeness. Garnet looked through one of her bags and pulled out a nicely wrapped package of chocolates "here, for you, a small gift to further the sincerity of my apology" she said as she held the chocolates out to him, she had more in her bag, one being given away wasnt going to hurt and besides that, she had to show how sincere she was, she couldn't just let this go, it wasnt right, asa princess she was alway taught to show sincerity in her apology to another if she had wronged them and she had so a small token in this case was needed.

Shou stumbled as the young female anthro bumped into him and he quickly steadied himself on his feet and spun around to face her. He waved off her apology and smiled politely at her.
"No, it's alright. I should have been paying more attention." He glanced down at the package of chocolate and tilted his head curiously. She was giving him chocolate for bumping into him? She didn't really have to do that since it had only been an accident. "Arigatou gozaimasu." He said, bowing to her. "Um... I usually don't come into town so I don't know which house I'm looking for. Um... you wouldn't happen to know where Lenore lives would you?"

Garnet smiled at him "your'e welcome" she said as she nodded "yes, I do, she is my guardian, im about to head there now if you care to come with me" she she askd the other anthro, the company would be nice also "im sorry" she said once again "I haven't introduced myself, im Garnet, Garnet Til Alexandros, and you are?" She asked, wondering now if her full name was needed, it was a formal circumstance but still, what a mouthful, even she had to admit to that.

Finally he had found someone who could help him! Shou bowed once more to Garnet after she had introduced herself and he gave her a friendly smile.
"It's nice to meet you Garnet-san. I'm called..." He trailed off, realizing his father had no last name while his mother did. He wasn't exactly sure if he should say it or not but he gave in to the urge to have a full name like Garnet. "Shou Higurashi and I thank you for helping me. I have a friend that I haven't seen in awhile and I thought I'd surprise her with a visit."

"So your'e the one who some what unoffically adopted Lore or Omen and another of their siblings from Arcadias lot" she said to him, having heard about it from Celest who, obviously, had heard about it from her best friend Tempest "anyway it is a pleasure to meet you" she said as she started down the path "come on, lets get going" she said as she pulled out a chocolate bar and unwrapped it, taking a bite out of it before handing another to Shou. "Whenever I go shopping I always buy far more candy then I ever will possibly need, I share it with the others in Lenores horde but still, I always have alot left over, only good thing is that I don't need to stock up on it for a while" she said giggling a little as she looked down at her eight bags, 4 rather large bags carried nothing but candy alone, she was deffinatly going to have to give some to Zidane this time, she usually shared with him anyway but this time, she brought far too much.

"Yeah, I'm the one." Shou's eyes darkened at the mention of Arcadia and Sangreal's children and he glanced away from Garnet to hide the usual anger that crossed his face when that situation was mentioned. He loved Vengeance, Lore and Omen ((I can't remember if it was both Lore and Omen or just one of them >__< I know Vengeance was one for sure though... anywho... )) but he was still pissed off at their parents. He pushed his anger down for the moment and managed a smirk as he glanced at her again and laughed when she began to ramble about the chocolate she had bought. He accepted the chocolate she had taken a bite out of and popped it in his mouth, enjoying the taste of it.
"You really did stock up on a lot." Shou said, taking note of all her bags. "Do you need any help with those?"

((I can't remember either! Like you, I know it was one of them but which one escapes me right now. ^^; ))
"Yes please" she said handing him four of the bags "and thank you" "I have a terrible sweet tooth, I just have the will power to stop eating chocolate and other candy before I reach the size of a house" she said taking another bite of her candy bar and smiled at him "it's alright, you can be angry" she said getting back to what was said first "half of Lenores lot are, I am as well, god knows what those two were thinking! If they were not even going to take care of their own children, they shouldn't of had any, the sad thing is, whilst they are her children, Arcadia can't even let them go. In a way, I understand since she is their mother but if she didn't want them then she shouldn't be putting up a fight to keep them, im just glad you adopted two at least, those two would of had a better upbringing then the others that decided to stay with their parents" she said to him with a soft sigh, one day Tempest would be a great mother to her own children, too bad Arcadia is too arrogant and stubborn t learn a thing or two oabout good parenting frm others.

"Well if you're buying all of this, I'm surprised you're not bouncing off the walls!" Shou took the bags from her and laughed. "Don't worry, I'm the same way with pocky. If I had the money, I would buy as much pocky as you have chocolate right now in these bags." He frowned at the mention of Arcadia and Sangreal and sighed. "I've had the same argument with Sangreal multiple times but unlike Arcadia, he doesn't care about the kids. He tried to push another one of his litters on me but I refused. I am glad though that at least two of them know what love is.... I wish I was able to save them all though..." He said sadly. Even if it wasn't his job to take care of those kids, he felt horrible that they were treated the way they were.

"Pocky?" She said as she stopped and looked through one of her bags "which flavor do you want? I have chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, Grape, Almond, Mandarin (I get that one ordered in for me especially since it's one of my favorites), pineapple, pumpkin, hazelnut and chocolate banana but then I also have..." Garnet said trailing off and looking in another bag "a few boxes of Decorer Pocky, which is also my favorite and rather hard to find and if you do you have to pay top dollar for it" she said as she carried on walking and finishing off her bar and placed the wrapper in a near by rubbish bin. "Now, question is, what flavor or flavors do you want? I have three or four boxes of each so take your pick" she said as she picked up a bag of hard boiled orange candies and opened the bag, popping one into her mouth to suck before offering the bag to Shou an giggled a little "like I said, I know when to stop, a certain monkey boy would probably dislike me a little if I was bouncing off the walls, hes energetic enough for the both of us."
Garnet said as she thought of Zidane, he just couldn't sit still for five minutes, if there was some adventure waiting to happen, he wanted part of it regardless how small and yet if it wasnt for him ''kidnapping'' her in the beginning then she wouldnt have him now so it was deffinatly something that she loved about him even if at times it could get a tad bit annoying it was also something she would not want to change for anything in the world. "If you ask me those two are perfect for each other, Arcadia and Sangreal, Ijust wish there was a way to forbid them to ever breed again, would it be wrong to force them to get desexed?" She asked rhetorically, knowing that, for any moonlit...at least most of them, it was wrong to say such things but in such cases as Arcadia and Sangreal's, it was a more kinder suggestion concidering they didn't care about their children anyway.
"You are kidding me!" She sad having thought about the rest of what he said "he wanted you to adopt more kids from another litter?! I may have asked rhetorically before but im starting to wonder if forcing him to get desexed wouldn't be a bad idea, at least with one of them done then they can't have anymore children" she said with a sigh "and yeah, it was good two of them at least got to know what love is, I know Tempest would of jumped at the chance to adopt all of them as well. Though, Tempest still feels bad for them to this day, shs gotten over most of it though but still, seeing Vengence and his sibling isnt easy on her but sh knows she can't do anything, the other two are just lost to the world which is sad" she said wishing the other two had sense to just get rid of their parents and allow Shou and Tempest to help them, their lives would be better if they did.
