Patty Lowell

Days passed since everyone is at home when Morrison knocks on their door. John opens the door and finds their broker and a blonde-haired girl beside him.

"Ah, John, the person I was looking for," says Morrison as John looked at the girl and sees those blue eyes that told him everything.

"I think you should let Dante take care of this contract," says John as he looked at Morrison.

"I know that you don't need the money but the contractor wanted the best of the best and you and your wife are the best," says Morrison as John looked at him.

"Dante is better for this job," says John with a smile as Morrison could read that John didn't want to take the job when Nesiara walks towards them.

"Is something wrong?" asks Nesiara seeing Morrison and the girl.

Her face turned into surprise as she knew that Morrison would normally take her to Dante but the story has changed a lot because of their appearance.

"How about we take the job with Dante?" suggests Nesiara as she smiled at the girl.

John looked at her only to find out that Nesiara already made up her mind to help the girl and Dante. This made John sigh as he enters the hall again while going for the phone to call Dante.

This made Morrison enter the room with the girl as Nesiara smiled at her when suddenly Maverick and Archer rushed in their direction holding their swords when Maverick loses his shield and uses the girl as his shield making Archer run rounds around her before Nesiara picked them both by their shirts.

"You shouldn't bother a lady by running rounds around her," says Nesiara before putting them on the ground again while saying, "Go and play in the living room and don't forget your shield Maverick or you will forget where you left it."

"Yes, grandma," say both before Maverick picked his shield up and they rushed into the living room.

"They are as lively as the children in the orphanage," says the girl as Nesiara smiles at her and pets get head.

"Then the orphanage you live in must be a happy place for everyone," says Nesiara not knowing what the girl must be feeling.

"Are you really their grandmother?" asks the girl as Nesiara looked too young to be one in her eyes.

"I am, don't get fooled by my appearance. I am even older than Morrison over there. The same goes for my husband," says Nesiara as she walked towards the kitchen while asking, "Did you already have breakfast?"

"I would like to have a coffee," says Morrison as he wouldn't pass up on it if it was offered to him.

"Do you have pancakes?" asks the girl as Nesiara smiles at her.

"We can make you some really fast," says Nesiara as they entered the kitchen.

They find Mary and Nora making some breakfast for their children while Trish was drinking her morning coffee while looking at a fashion magazine and Kalina was enjoying her green tea.

"Who do we have here?" asks Kalina friendly seeing the girl entering the kitchen.

"I am Patty Lowell," says Patty revealing her name to everyone in the kitchen.

"Nora, make some extra pancakes for our little guest," says Nesiara as she walked to a cupboard taking a cup out of it before pouring coffee into it while asking, "Sugar and Milk?"

"Two spoons of Sugar and no Milk," says Morrison as Nesiara puts two teaspoons of sugar into the coffee before serving it when she takes another cup out and puts milk into it.

She heats the milk in her hands before putting three teaspoons of cacao powder into the cup before mixing it and serving it to Patty while telling her to be careful because the cacao was burning.

John soon entered the kitchen followed by his grandchildren which exhausted their energy fighting against each other.

"Dante will be here in a moment. He will be the primary bodyguard while we will be in the shadows making sure that nothing happens to the girl," says John as he sees her eating pancakes when the twins join her at the table.

They began to beg for some pancakes seeing Patty eating them when Nora takes out two Lembas and shovels them into her sons.

"I will stay the whole day in the kitchen if I and your mother feed you two with pancakes," says Nora as the twins eat the Lembas with fruits in it.

Patty looked at what the twins were eating when she asks, "Can I have one of those as well?"

"How about we give you one for on the way since Lembas can fill a normal person by just taking a bite from it," says Nesiara as Patty still didn't know in which hellhole Morrison brought her until she finally notices the tails on the twins as well as Nora and Nesiara.

"Why do you all have tails?" asks Patty a bit fearful when John smiles at her.

"Don't worry they are human hybrids if we say it simply, but they aren't bad people or I wouldn't have married Nesiara and had six children with her," says John as Patty looked at them again.

She sees that Mary, Trish, and Kalina, as well as Morrison, were normal people and weren't scared of them making her feel more secure that they really aren't bad people as John said.

Soon they heard someone knock on the door before it opened and a person entered the hall when John says, "We are in the kitchen."

"I can smell it," says a man as he walked towards the kitchen when Patty turns to the door and find Dante standing there holding a guitar suitcase wearing black clothes with a red coat.

"She must be our contractor?" asks Dante seeing Patty as she was the only person she didn't know.

"Dante, this is Patty Lowell. Patty, this is Dante. He will be protecting you in the open while we will look after you from the shadow," says Nesiara as Patty looked at Dante closely.

"Can we really trust him? He looks like someone that doesn't get the job done," says Patty judging Dante which made everyone in the room except for the twins break out in laugher.

"Oh, she just took a look at you and read you almost perfectly," says Trish as she put the magazine down.

"Says the woman that tried to kill me twice," says Dante joking about it.

"It almost worked because of your laziness," counters Trish when Nora interrupts both.

"Just get a room you two and get it behind each other," says Nora as both looked at her while the adult broke out in laugher again.

"Let them stay in the closet for a while longer before they come out of it," says John as he leaned back against the stool he was sitting on.

"Yeah, don't place me beside this lazy idiot," says Trish as she looked at her sister seriously.

"We both know very well that you two will end up in a bed one day," says Nora as the twins were confused about everything that was being said while Patty suddenly seemed to understand what they were talking about going by her red cheeks.

"Now we should stop. Patty finish your breakfast so we can leave and get you safely to your destination," says John as he turned towards Dante.

"You have everything with you?" asks John as Dante smirks at him.

"Of course," says Dante confident as John stands up.

"Follow me," says John as they leave the kitchen.

John enters the living room and Dante follows him when Dante gets a bad feeling in his guts and asks, "Is she the girl?"

"She is," says John as he takes a bottle out of the cabinet and pours a drink for himself.

"What about me?" asks Dante as he sees only one glass being filled.

"You have a job to do so no drinking for you even if you can't notice it in your system since it is weak," says John as he normally wouldn't get a drink but this situation occurred because of their interference and it was getting on his nerves since many other things have changed.

"She seems to be a good kid. Let's hope that she gets attached to you as she normally would," says John quietly only for him to hear as he chugs down his drink.

"What did you say?" asks Dante not understanding him.

"Nothing let's just get this behind us," says John putting the bottle back into the cabinet.

They return to the hall when Dante turns to Morrison who was standing there with Nesiara and Patty when he receives the location he has to take Patty when he says, "I will need your car."

"I don't want a single scratch on it," says Morrison as he pulled out his car keys when Dante takes them.

"I can't promise you that since I have to protect the little princess and not your car," says Dante joking about it as he walks over to the guitar suitcase and picks it up.

"Hey!" says Patty not liking the nickname Dante gave her as she kicked his shin making Dante jump for a moment as he holds his shin.

"That wasn't necessary," says Dante as he felt more pain from that kick on his shin than being pierced through his body with his own sword.

"Now now, everyone calms down we all need to work together so everyone survives this mission," says Nesiara holding her laugher back.

Patty had Dante dominated it seemed as Dante was rubbing his hands over his shin to get the pain out of his leg.

"She needs to be there in two days. So you should be on your way or you will be too late for the delivery," says Morrison as Dante smirks at him.

"You know that once I take a contract I will complete it and this one seems quite easy if you ask me," says Dante as John hits his side lightly with his elbow.

"Don't underestimate the contract," says John as Dante holds his side.

"That was unnecessary, again," says Dante as they were now ready to leave the house while Nesiara tells the twins to train their Ki and to listen to their mothers.

They stood in front of Morrison's car when they all enter it and Dante starts the engine when they hear Morrison shout, "Not one scratch!"
