You can't fool those who care.

...Earlier...

"What's going on? Where is Yuri?" Ned asked.

"Umm...We do not know?" A confused Muriel replied.

"Big brother, what's going on?" Nashoba asked, "Idk, but I can smell trouble already." Ned replied while letting Thorn and Muriel step inside the office, where Nashoba and Kowa stood.

Since she was behind him, Ned was surprised when he turned and looked at Kowa, she was now way bigger than when she was at Yuri's office, Alice-in-wonderland bigger.

Also Surprised, "Who's she?! She's Giant!" Thorn said, "Thorn!" Muriel scolded him.

"I'm Kowa, not nice to meet you Thorn." Kowa said annoyed.

"I'm pretty sure Nashoba said he had to birth your giant Ass out earlier." Ned replied, "But I thought he was joking...how the hell did you get, bigger?! You were as tall as Muriel, and now you're like at least 3 times his height." He asked.

"I used a sizing spell, obviously! but for some reason it got cancelled when we teleported to your house, something weird is going in here..." Kowa said.

"So you're an actual giant?" Thron asked, "Judging by your height, you're a Half-Giant, right?" Muriel said.

"Correct beautiful, but unfortunately even to Half-Giants standers I'm considered short, because Half-Giants are between 10-12 feet tall (304.8-365.76 in Cm).

And I'm around 9 feet tall (almost 274cm)." Kowa explained.

"I knew Kowa from my past life, she belongs to a kingdom of Half-Giants where I was a doctor there." Nashoba explained, "You had a past life, also No offense but you don't even look like a Half-Giant Nash." Thorn questioned.

Muriel was expecting Nashoba to yell at Thorn but, "Most people in that kingdom were Half-Giants.

However, there were few people who weren't, like me and my mate who was a knight." Nashoba explained calmly.

"You had a mate too." Muriel said, "He died shortly after I did...big brother Ned thinks my beloved got reincarnated too, that's why we came here." Nashoba explained.

"On the topic of Half-Giants, In my past life as Derora's king, we had many species of supernaturals living within our kingdom, and there was a tribe of Half-Giants living in one of the mountainsides.

I personally knew their leader, He was a complete sweetheart who adored nature!

They once invited me for a week as a 'thank-you' for stopping a noblewoman from destroying their farming fields, after they refuse to sell her their land and move away.

It was a curious but fun trip, though I felt a bit guilty when i rejected the leader's marriage proposal, like I said he was a complete sweetheart but I was not available at that time." Muriel said.

Surprised, "WHAT?! You were proposed to by a Half-Giant?" Thorn asked.

"And you rejected him?! Whomever you choose over that poor man better be better than him!" Kowa said, making Thorn look at her.

Kowa didn't understand why Thorn glared at her with wide eyes, "What?! Giants in general are incredibly friendly and passionate people, especially in love!

Once they enter a relationship, they become so devoted! It's rare for any of them to cheat, or break ties.

Plus Even Half-Giants males have some of the biggest dicks in universe! It's common knowledge Habibi." Kowa said bluntly making Muriel blush.

"KOWAAAAAH YOU BIG MOUTHED LITTLE SHIT!" Nashoba screamed scaring her, "What did I do?!" She said shivering.

...Few minutes later...

"So basically this is what happened." Muriel explained everything since Thorn was busy glaring at Kowa.

"Thorn, I'm sorry on behalf of Kowa, she has a habit of being...an honest talker." Nashoba spoke-up.

"UGH?!" Groaning, "I get it, gorgeous Blondie is your mate Thorn! I'm sorry but I didn't know that!" Kowa said.

"You should've thought about that before you started talking about giant...dicks!" An embarrassed Thorn replied making both Ned and Muriel laugh.

"See? They think it's funny!" Kowa said pointing at the two omegas.

"Ugh, whatever...Tch." Thorn scoffed.

"Btw Ned." Kowa said, "Yeah?" Ned replied.

"I'm surprised I can stand in this place, how high is this ceiling?" She asked, "14 feet high.

The floor-to-ceiling height for a 'luxury' residence should be more than 12 feet, everyone knows that." He replied.

"So now what?" Nashoba asked, "Maybe we should call the others And check on their progress?" Muriel suggested.

"No need to mom, at least not for Us!" Jade said smiling as she went into the office with Faunus and Henrietta.

"Wow?!" Jade and Faunus were surprised and Henrietta took a step back seeing Kowa.

"Everyone This is Kowa...Kowa, this is my daughter Jade, my son-in-law Faunus, and my father-in-law Henrietta." Ned said introducing them.

"You're really pretty!" Jade said and Kowa smiled, "Agreed, I love your dress and hair." Faunus said, "Insanely pretty." Henrietta said shocked, "Finally, someone who recognizes beauty when they see it, I like you Guys." Kowa replied.

"Henrietta, did you find Grey?" Ned asked, "Yeah, he's with Freddie..." She replied still looking at Kowa.

Noticing how embarrassed both Faunus and Jade were of Henrietta's answer, "They were obviously shaking the sheets, weren't they." Nashoba said with a poker-face, while Muriel gasped And Thorn raised an eyebrow at him.

Nodding though suspiciously, "Yeah...how did you know?" Henrietta asked, "I caught them having the minutes of their lives before lunch." Nashoba replied.

"DAMN! so just now was round two? I'm proud of Grey." Henrietta said then chuckled.

"Fernando did tell me he was having a casual thing with someone for While, but to think it's Grey! He doesn't fit his style!

Haha! 'His style'." Ned replied chuckling too.

Blushing, "Henrietta, Mother can we please not talk about my brother and cousin's extracurricular activities." Faunus said, "Okay, last question, where are they?" Ned asked.

"In Fau's house." Jade replied.

"Oooookay?...Btw, Where's your mate, Jade?" Ned asked.

"Oh right! You're Yuri's wifey!" Kowa said to a confused Jade, so Nashoba stepped on her foot to silence her.

"OWWOWOW UNCLE STOP! I'M SORRY!"

...Currently...

"Are you sure you're the only one who can help us?" Garrick asked, "Well you could try other academies but I doubt any of them will help your flock of lost sheep, especially when you are associated with the name 'Lucas White'." Lady Orange replied.

Surprised, "Is his reputation that bad?" Garrick asked.

Smugly smiling, "If bad reputation was a person, it would be Lucas White." Lady Orange replied.

"Wow...I'm speechless." A disappointed Garrick said.

Suddenly, "Rickie? Are you here?" Ned said popping into the room with the others, except for Kowa who stood outside.

"Lovely you're back!" Garrick said and walked to Ned, hugging him.

Hugging Garrick back, "No I'm still in the office you silly man." Ned joked.

"You must've heard of what happened, that's why you're here." Garrick said breaking the hug, "Actually no! I just came back on my own and found out, btw Yuri is missing too." Ned replied.

Shocked, "What?! How?! We left Yuri in the office." Garrick asked, "We don't know how, anyways mom and I...we tried contacting Yuri and it's not working, plus I can't feel them anywhere in here.

We also tried calling Kimberly but she's not responding, though Freddie and Grey are okay and should be here any minute now." Jade explained worriedly.

"Good to know at least two people aren't actually gone, and you're right...Kimberly isn't responding to her phone just like she's nowhere here." Socorro said coming into the room with Matilda.

"Btw there's this insanely tall woman standing outside?" Matilda said, "Oh that's Kowa, KOWA get inside!" Nashoba replied calling for the woman to come in.

Garrick was feeling nervous about meeting Kowa but as she stepped inside, "Wow, she's huge!" Garrick said in awe, "She is not using the spell?" Lady Orange said confusing those who heard her.

"So you're Kowa! Pleasure to finally meet you." Socorro said.

"Kowa..." Lady Orange said sighing.

Turning to face lady Orange, "Lady Orange." Kowa replied.

Everyone stared as the two women stood facing each other, while exchanging weird looks before they both smirked.

"You fucking bitch." Kowa said, "Who the fuck you calling a bitch you Cocksucker!" Lady Orange replied before she hurried to give Kowa a hug, which Kowa was happy to take.

Everyone was confused as hell, "What...the...fuck?" Thorn wandered, "Indeed." Faunus said.

The two women started throwing insults back and forth while giggling for a minute, before Ned decided to interfere.

"You did tell us you knew Kowa, Lady Orange." He said.

Still hugging Lady Orange, "You didn't tell them? Oranges and I are BFFs! Though we haven't seen each other in few months, because we were both busy, especially me." Kowa explained.

"Both 'Ko' and I value our jobs, we do not mind having a long-distance friendship." Lady Orange replied.

While half of them cringed and the other half got more confused, "Anyway...Since Freddie and Grey are accounted for now, we should focus on finding Rapunzel, Kimberly and Yuri." Ned said.

"Hey how about we track everyone who's missing through their phones!" Jade suggested.

"Good idea." Ned said.

Suddenly, Tacito walked in.

"Shit gurl...I mean you're...quite a tall Lady." He said as soon as he spotted Kowa.

Surprised, "Tacito...You came alone?" Ned asked.

"I was sent...to tell you..that we couldn't find...our missing one." Tacito said but he immediately tensed-up when he spotted Nashoba looking at him.

"Both Grey and Fernando are okay, they were just hanging outside." Muriel said.

"What about the...other missing ones?" Tacito asked.

"We couldn't find Kimberly or Rapunzel, and Yuri is missing too." Matilda replied.

"Oh I should...go back to...tell the other two!" Tacito replied before running outside the room.

As soon as he was gone, "Whatever the hell that was, that isn't Taci!" Nashoba said angrily.

"What are you talking about Nash?" Henrietta asked, "Nash is right, that person isn't Tacito." Ned replied.

"That was definitely not my nephew!" Faunus said, "Not our son either!" Thorn said and Muriel nodded, "Fucking hell...another imposter already!" Jade said annoyed.

"Are you guys talking about that rude but gorgeous beauty that just left?" Kowa asked.

Nodding, "Yeah! That's Tacito, he's our friends and he works for Yuri too.

Btw mom Jasper told me before that Tacito's new body makes him vulnerable for control and possession." Jade said.

"New body? As in crafted-body?" Kowa asked.

"Yeah? You know something?" Ned asked her back, "Sure thing, I considered bodycrafting long-ago to give my genies stronger Bodies, but I got adviced against using the service because of all the bad disadvantages that comes with it, like possession." Kowa replied.

"Good thing you didn't, cuz We've seen that happen when Fernando controlled Tacito after making him his new body and tried to make Tacito kill his own mate involuntarily." Jade said.

"Jade please shut-up." Ned replied.

"This new disturbing information aside, Am I dumb? How come I can't tell if Tacito isn't The real Tacito?!" Henrietta asked, "You're new here, it's okay." Ned replied.

"Truth is we don't really have a definite evidence that can officially prove he's been possessed, but our assumptions including mine is built on a Personal hunch and our familiarity with Tacito as a person, because whomever that was, he wasn't behaving like the Tacito we know.

I know about Fernando's previous control of Tacito's body, and I also happened to be friends with Tacito way before meeting everybody here, So I'm quite familiar with him and his mannerisms, especially the way he talks.

Just now he was talking differently, his words lacked manners, he spoke faster and easier than usual, plus for some reason he didn't mention anybody by name, even Yurei, his mate.

Also this Tacito seemed scared when he saw Nash, which is definitely weird considering that Tacito doesn't have a reason to fear Nash, in fact it's Nash who has a reason to fear Tacito." Garrick explained.

"Once Again, your deduction is amazing... Garrick." Socorro said.
