"I guess you are perhaps too old-fashioned to carry a gun like normal people." Daniel smirked. "We didn't have as elaborated weapons back home."

"That's Daniel, Aron's brother," Delfina told Veronica.
*****
Ebony blinked for a bit, coming back to reality. She shook her front. "Oh, I uh... I'm okay," she said softly, "Just thinking."

Gryffin chirped for a moment uncertainly for a moment but nudged it towards the twins to let them see it.

The twins crept toward the toy and pawed at it, but looked at Gryffin as if asking if they could play with it.

"Normal" isn't something I've ever been accused of." Kamui cracked. "It's an heirloom, actually. Pleased to meet you, by the way."
Veronica gave Daniel a nod, but returned her attention to Delfina. "Hon, given our situations, we might have more in common than we thought. So, is Aron gearing up for the plan or is he playing shy?"
"I could go down the street and get us something." Kendall indicated the diner down the road.

"There is something you and Ronnie should know about me." Daniel said. "Don't do that mental communication or go poking in my thoughts and that. It ain't a paranoia thing, it is more of a death thing."

"I think he is, but I also think he's nervous about it too," said Delfina, "He's taking a big risk and I must admit that I'm worried about him."
*****
"No," Ebony said, "I'm not hungry."

Gryffin blinked for a moment and looked back at his mother for a moment. "Go on, its alright," Phoenix said gently nudging him.
Gryffin let out another chirp and nudged his griffin closer, letting them know it was okay.

Kamui's eyes widened, and she took on a more sober expression. "Well... thanks for warning us. Hear that, Vee?"
"Got it." the JetRanger nodded before addressing Delfina again. "I think he really loves you, and that's really good. Chrysler knows there wasn't any such thing between my parents. They were "in lust" for a while and then had a little "accident" - me. It was expected that they stay together to raise what they brought into the world, and I got to listen to them fighting for the next sixteen years."
"That's OK." Kendall nodded. "Oh, look." he pointed further afield.
One of the pigeons was searching for seeds, and venturing closer to the twins as it poked about.

Delfina nods, "He does love me. That I know for sure. But, I don't see any reason why your folks would see you as an accident."
*****
The twins started playing with the griffin toy, dragging and pouncing on it playfully.
Ebony glanced at the twins, but didn't seem to notice the bird. Something just didn't seem right to her. And her mind felt fuzzy for some reason.
And then, she fainted dead away.

"Sorry for the scare tactic, but what I said is true. I have no idea why it happens, I just know it does." He huffed slightly and recovered. "How's that racing thing going for you?" Daniel asked.
((Gonna go to sleep, puppet please.))

Gryffin chirped as he joined in.
"Ebs," Phoenix said quickly getting to her tires.

Kendall, realizing that something was wrong, sprang to his treads. "Ebs?!" He shook her and patted her fender to bring her back around.
"I've been in the top five all the past season, won four times, placed in six and came in third in the overall standings." Kamui counted them off as Shroder came up to join them. "That's more than enough to keep my sponsor happy, not to mention the fans. A Piston Cup championship at some point would be nice, and we'll certainly strive for it, but it's not all about the cup for me. It's about being the best that I can be - honestly. I don't get along that great with McQueen, but at least we agree on that."
"I don't think they wanted to be bothered with a kid, they just wanted to have their fifteen minutes under the yum-yum tree and be done with it." Veronica pursed her lips. "I'm still not happy with them, but I know now that I have to forgive them and move on."

Ricardo got up as well, seeing Ebony faint. He was worried, knowing how weak her health was.
Ebony moaned, but she was having a hard time coming back around again.
*****
"That's the best thing," agreed Delfina.

Kendall got out his cell system and called Elizabeth, who was still at the mountain. He looked back at Ricardo. "She says she'll be here soon." He looked back down at Ebony and nuzzled her worriedly. "I'm right here, Ebs." He then clucked to the twins to keep them close.
"For me it is, though it almost cost me my life to realize it." Veronica nodded.
It was then that they saw a seafoam-green Hornet pull out and away towards town. "That's Doc Hudson's niece." Kamui looked up. "Didn't know she was here."
"Looks like she's on her way to a call." Daniel said grimly.
