9

It's been a week since we found the piolet. The boys are talking to me, mostly, and I still have a horrible feeling in the pit if my stomach when I think about the Warden. From what I've heard she was supposed to return two days ago and hasn't been in contact with anyone nor was it ever confirmed that she made it safely to her destination. I hope she's alright. She may be on the stranger side but aren't we all?

"Hey! (Y/N)!" Uno shouts as he makes a dive for my lap. I raise an eyebrow at him but say nothing as he hugs my waist and lays his head on my lap. I roll my eyes and go back to staring out the bared window.

"Uno! No Fair!" Nico pouts as he walks back into the cell with Jyugo and Rock. "You promised that I could cuddle with her when we got back!"

"Well you should have been faster. A gentleman knows not to keep a lady waiting." He winks up at me just to have me flick his forehead. "Ow!"

"A gentleman doesn't dive into a woman's lap either."

"I'll remember that for next time." He shrugs and goes back to cuddling me. Moments later Nico is on my other side doing the same thing.

"Why do you boys enjoy cuddling with me so much? I've only been here a week."

"Because you make us feel safe." Jyugo says and hugs me from behind.

"Feel safe from what? An angry gorilla?" I chuckle and look over my shoulder at him. All he does is shrug and continues to hold on to me while Rock watches me from the corner of his eye.

'Wonder when he'll stop avoiding me. It's not like I've changes since I first got here. I'm still the same as I was before they knew about me being the Grimlock's Devil. And these three don't seem worried about it... Unless...'

"You boys aren't doing this because you think it will keep me from hurting you, are you?" I close my eyes and wait for their answer.

"Well hugs do keep people happy and less murdery..." Nico trails off nervously.

"You boys don't have to worry about that. I don't have a reason nor any sort of desire to cause anyone here harm."

"You promise?" Jyugo asks and looks at me skeptically.

"Why would I hurt innocent kids?"

"Why would you hurt anyone?" Rock asks and looks me in the eye.

"Because it was necessary. I did what I had to do. It doesn't mean that I enjoyed it."

"What kind of people were they? The ones you killed." Nico asks and looks up at me with innocent eyes... Or well eye.

"Bad ones. Rapists, murderers, small time crime bosses, traffickers, pedophiles, drug dealers at times too if they were doing more than what they were told to do. I only went after them for testing them out in kids and such. It pisses me off to no end that there are people who would want to hurt kids."

"Why do you care about kids so much?"

"Well because of Upa and Liang for starters. I met them while they were working for Hachiman. That (BEEP) pig. My parents were in contact with him on a couple of things and I would handle the shipments. Once in a while the boys were sent with me for back up and that's how I got to know them. I know what he would do to them. And I couldn't stand it. That's why I'm so protective of them. And Qi, that idiot, cares about them almost as much as me if not more."

"Now that I think about it I don't think they ever told us what happened to bring Hachiman down in the first place. Just that they're all in prison now." Rock says and walks over to us.

"I took it upon myself to take him down for their safety." I open my eyes and look at him.

"How did you do that?" Uno asks and raises his head to look at me.

"A lot of fighting, blood, and eventually the police. Plus a lot of incriminating evidence to make sure he wouldn't be out for a very long time."

"Fighting? You fought Hachiman!?" Nico looks at me shocked. "Master and Liang had trouble with him! Qi need to do some weird smoke thing to take him out."

"What do you mean they had trouble with him? You don't mean that he's here. In Nanba Prison do you?" My eyes flashes with hatred and anger as I force back my emotions.

"Umm... Well..." Nico struggles to find the words to tell me.

"The last they saw he was paralyzed in the under ground cells of building 5." Rock answers and puts his hand on my shoulder. " They did well when fighting him. You should be proud."

"I am. I'm just also pissed that he's that close to them. Paralyzed or not."

"You really are a Mama Bear you know that?" Nico laughs.

"Is that so?" I laugh. "Normally my team back home calls me a Mama Monster."

"Mama Monster? Who the hell came up with that?" Uno laughs and the boys soon join him.

"Well Gale was the first one to call me that." I chuckle and the rub the back of my neck as a faint blush coats my cheeks. "And then it just sort of stuck."

"Ooh. Who's Gale?" Uno smirks at me.

"Just the cutest girl in the world." I shake my head.

"Another cute girl. I don't suppose she's related to you, is she?"

"Yes. Very much so." 'More than you know.'

"What does she look like?"

"Light blonde hair, (E/C), pale skin, and a beautiful smile." I smile fondly as I think of her. "She's very active. Runs everywhere and is always climbing onto something like a little monkey. And loves to tell jokes."

"She sounds perfect." Jyugo yawns and lays against my back.

"In everyway. But that's enough talk for now boys.  It's getting late." I say and look out the window at the moon shinning down on the five of us.

"Do we have to? I'm not tired yet." Nico whines and gives me his best puppy dog eyes.

"Yes. Growing boys need their sleep." I roll my eyes and try to pry their arms off of me.

"Please can we stay up. Just a little longer?" They all whine like children and look at me.

"F-five more minutes and no longer than that." I cave in and kick myself for stuttering. They we're so cute when they did that, that it caught me off guard. Damn it. The boys cheer and look at me closely. "What?"

"Tell us more about the jobs you did."

I sweat drop and look at the four of them. 'This is going to be a long night.'
