The ballroom was decorated to Catherine's liking. Everything was decorated in soft reds and white with streamers running along the roof in a rainbow of baby colors. In the center of each table there was vases with soft red and white bows around them. Within the vases where bouquates of fresh red roses and baby's breath. The bufette table was set up as well so everyone could eat as they pleased.

Salem finished putting up the last decorations, panting heavily. Gods... He must have been insane to do this. He hadn't breathed a word of it to his love, and what's more, had to keep all the little ones from coming in and seeing it so as not to risk word getting out. He employed many of the teens for this so that he could do the decorating.
"Daaaaad! I'm bored!" Whined the spider child, glaring up at his adoptive father as he came down from the ladder he was perched. Cato had stayed with the cat-man the whole time the decorations were being put up, running messages to people as his father told him to. He was tired of it and wanted to play already!
"I know, Cato. I'm done. Checkers! Would you please go get Catherine and start spreading the word? Everyone's invited!" He called to the cheetah teen near the door, catching a nod and a laugh as the spotted teen sped off. The whole house and likely many from the Mishaps Home would know within the hour with Checkers on the job. And so, Salem finally sat next to his Mishap, smiling weakly at him. He couldn't beleive Cato was already a kid. And those markings! Who would have thought it... Only hours earlier he had been a toddler and here he was, a child.

"Mama, when's Conner gonna get here?" The wasp mishap asked looking up at her very pregnant mother as she flew. "And when are you gonna bring Daisuke over? His week's almost up!" She pouted as she held tighter to her plushie companion who was contemplating the meaning of cheese.
Sighing Catherine shrugged to both responses. "Baby I can't be casting alot right now. I gotta keep my health up for the baby - ies. Bay-bees." She shook her head as she corrected herself.
"Whoooo." Nariko giggled, and then waved to Checker who sped right past them, spewing a message rather quickly to get to the ballroom and that the party was starting. Nariko merely blinked and wobbled as her hair flew up into a fluster. "Mama the kitty person said to go see daddy."
Garreth on the other hand was already in the ballroom with Cato, through his time he seemed to growing restless as the days grew past. It was hard to see what was making the sweet tempered dragon go sour.
Catherine laughed a bit as Nariko and made her attempt to sit up from her desk... well tried, so instead she tried to roll over towards the ballroom in her rolling computer chair, but halfway stopped. "Nari, push mommy."
Nariko blinked and ran away towards the ballroom. "No!"
A gruff laugh came from behind as it emerged from the front doors. "Little dudette, that's no way to be treatin' your mama-wama." The 6'2" half wolf-kin, stepped from from behind the pregnant witch, pushing her into the ballroom.
"BUT MAMA'S FAAAAAAAAAAT!" The toddler screeched from the ballroom.
"Connor!" Aphrodite squeeled, nesting into his messy blonde hair.
Catherine gasped as soon as she entered the ballroom, she at first had no idea what Salem was doing. She, herself was still working. Even though she was on a force medical leave. She smild a great wide smile. "Oh, Salem the ballroom looks spectacular!"

"I'm glad you like it." Salem said from where he sat. He wasn't going to get up just yet after that run around... This had all been spur of the moment and had required a lot of scrambling and last minute getting ready. He was tired and until he caught his breath properly he wasn't moving. "I took a guess at the colors to use and such. You should have seen the trip to get all the roses. You really like it Cath-baby? This is way more for you then it is for me, O' Mother-To-Be." He murmured out. Gods... He needed a cigarette...
Cato on the other hand was bored out of his skull. The spider child looked over at everyone from where he sat. After a moment he slid from his chair and walked away without so much as a 'hello' with Blank sitting upon his head as always and his favorite purple spider gripped in his main left hand.

After being informed by a cheetah teen, Chii came to the ball room. This wasn't a first for her, after all she was a highly trained doctor and she was the top baby delivery doctor on the Galactic Police HQ station. Of coarse that was over 500 years ago. She went through her memories of being on the Galactic Police until she came to the ball room.
Walking inside she stopped and was amased by the room decorations. Spotting Catherine, who was sitting on a wheeled computer chair. Chii walked over to her, "Congradulations!" She smiled as she spoke to both Catherine and Salem. Her ears twitching and tail waving.
It wasn't long after Chii had came in, that little Nomi entered. Unlike Chii, this was his first ever going to a baby shower, and the first time he will see a pregnant woman. His tail flicked about as he looked around, curiousity growing inside of him. He looked at his mother whe was greeting the hosts. He would rather look around than greet the hosts right now.

Catherine grinned a bit wearily to the new person with a smile. "HI! Who are you?" She blinked, her smile not faltering. "I'm Catherine... And this is Salem." Sh pointed towards the twitching Cat-man.
Connor waved, a lazy smile on his face as he plucked Aphrodite from his hair, plopping the smallest mishap gently on her mother's head. "Yo, Salem-dude-uncle what's yer face... Wanna go outside. I'm waitin' fer tha resta da band and I need to smoke a few. I need a ciggerette buddy." He grinned waving to Chi waiting for the scruffy blonde's response.
Aphrodite frowned, she spotted Cato, and decided to fly after him. "Hey Cato! " She waved after him, in hopes to become a little more friendly with her brother to be.

"Ah, right I forgot the proper introduction." She cleard her throat, and put out her hand in a hand-shake jester, "I'm Chii Hakubi, daughter of Washu Hakubi." Her ears perked and her tail waved in a happy mannor.
Nomi took an interest of the food, when he was done looking around. The first thing he looked for was sushi, his favorite snack.

"Hello. Oh, uh, thank you!" The blonde cat smiled despite how tired he was and shook her hand, even waving to his fellow, but younger, cat-boy. Was there sushi? Of course. As well as sashimi, both Salem's favorites. He blinked up as Conner spoke to him, his smile growing wider. "Oh, Gods, yes!" He threw his mind upwards to his dragon friend. With that he stood and came over to Conner's side, already pulling his pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his vest pocket. Came the old dragon's reply.Cato didn't stop, but looked over his shoulder as the tiny Mishap called to him. "Yeah?" Well... It wasn't the friendliest responce, but it could have been far meaner.After a couple of minutes a tall man entered the ballroom. He was very thin though he didn't quite look under nurished. The man was very handsome, or at least would be if it weren't for the amount of scars covering his body. To think, someone could actually be more scared up then Salem. He was even missing his left eye! The stranger's skin was pure white as well as his long hair. Oddly the white part of the eye he had left was black instead and the iris was glowing orange. He wore a nice royal purple button up shirt and a pair of black slacks. He walked right past Salem with a nod only to sit next to Catherine. "Hello.""Thanks old man!" With a final wave he walked out of the ballroom with Conner.

Connor laughed a bit, following after the catman with a grin, making their way across the ballroom into the kitchen they were greeted with a butcher knife.
The elven would has sounded wonderfully beautiful if it wasn't for the gruff voice that spoke it."*L' huthin draeval dos rin'ov luth natha... natha... SHINDIG!" The tiny drow, flared up his hands unable o find a word in his native tongue that fight the word he looked for. His violet eyes turned deadly as he chased Salem and Connor out the back door."**Xuileb ikkask uns'aa ust, Dorn waess dos dro lu' shar'tleg dos wund zha'trassen!"
Catherine smiled, letting her head rest on Gairbith's strong shoulders. "It's nice to meet you both." She smiled, it had been a long day and this little party was a nice way to end it.
Nariko blinked, looking at Nomi as he inspected the buffet. she grasped a bun with her tiny hand and placed the contents in her mouth, still watching unblinkingly.
Garreth climbed his way onto the stage and sat watching the party.
Aphrodite sighed flying a bit faster so now that they were walking side by side. "Uh, wanna play?" There's some cool props back stage.. like ninja stuff and pirate gear. It's pretty cool."
*The next time you ever throw a... a... SHINDIG!
**Without telling me first, I'll skin you alive and turn you into boots!

Chii nodded, "I have experience in Delivery and in checking the baby's health. If you need anything, just come and get me, I can do ultrasounds and vital checks on both you and your baby right here." Her ears twitched as something started beeping, it almost sounded like it was Chii's collar that was beeping.
Nomi picked up a peice of sushi and popped it in his mouth. He smiled as he ate it, when he swallowed it he smiled wide enough for his fangs to show.

"Erk! Uh... I know Bae... I'm really sorry about the short-eek!" And so they were chased out the back door by the rather upset drow. Poor Bae hadn't had any notice at all and had somehow managed to cook up all that awesome food. He'd really have to get the little guy something nice later... Finally outside he pulled out a f** and lit up, offering one to the younger wolf. "This is bad for you ya know..." He had to get it out. He could almost hear the response he always got from his smoking buddy. The ever pressent 'I know' as he too lit up. It would only take a moment to come for sure.
The dragon in human 'guise smiled gently to the pregnant woman and wrapped an arm around her. The old dragon, as young as he looked when he shapeshifted, really was a great fatherly type. He then turned his single glowing eye to the new cat before him, smiling warmly. "Hello. My name is Gairbith, I help Salem run things here. Thank you for offering. You... Wouldn't be interested in a job would you...? We have a doctor as well as an assistant for her, but she does better with the older ones. It would be nice to have someone who could better treat the little ones."
"Ninja stuff...?" That had gotten his attention and he stopped walking to look over at her. It was so odd... He was used to always thinking of the wasp as older then him and here they were looking the same age. It was so weird... "What kinda ninja stuff...?" Yep. She'd hooked him good...

Chii strightend, she reached up and pressed the cresent moon on her collar makeing the beeping stop. She then smiled at Gairboth, "I would love to help you and Salem with the little ones!" She nodded, then took a step back, "I'm terribly sorry, but I have to anwser this." She closed her eyes for a minute and waved her right hand in a semi-circle in front of her. As her hand swiped through the air, thin flat screens, like that seen on a computer, formed in front of her. They seemed to be floating on nothing at all.
"Yes Kylos?" she asked, as a tall shirtless man with spiked green hair, black dragon wings and tail, a studded collar, and black snowboarding pants with green stripes down the sides apeard on the screen. "The orders have been sent in, we are waiting for them now." He said, dispite the seemingly hallow graph screens, everything was clear and viewable from both front and back. "Ok that's good, I'm here now. Would you like to congradulate the Mother-t0-be?" she asked glancing at Catherine. Kylos nodded and Chii simply turned the screen around to face Catherine. "Congradulations! If you need anything just ask Chii, she is the best of the best." He said and gave a small smile.

Well, even though the fellow friend and staffer was late, he was fashionably late. Making his way into the ballroom, he was dressed casually and bare foot. Yawning it looked as though he had woken up from some sort of nap.
Leonie ran her away into the ballroom looking about for a place to hide, the little saytr darted under a table as her broher came chasing after.
"LEO! Come back here!" The older saytr growled fom the hall, a large red mark on his forehead.

Catherine laughed. "Well Chii, if you think you can handle being a staffer here at Salem's Home, I can help you out later if you like."
Then a sweet voice emerged behind Catherine. "No miss Cat! You're on medical leave, no more work for you. You need to relax!" Abigale Lee, Catherine's assistent was just finishing the last of her work before attending the party. She held stacks of folders in her arms as she then scampered away towards Catherine's desk.
Catherine blinked again as then Bax came up from the side. "Oh really.. so that's what he's been doing. " She laughed again taking Istu out of Bax's arms and holding the fawn. "Hey there." she smiled a bit holding the baby gently.
"I know dude, but once you start... it's hard ta stop. It's like music yannoo." The surfer grinned.
Aphrodite nodded. "Yeah, like loads of props. Some fake kunais and like a.. shogun statue!"
