Chapter Two: It lives again!
"Is he alive?" a child's voice asked from the edge of the bed Shadow was sleeping in.
"Sure he's alive," whispered another child's voice sound exactly like the other. "He's probably in a comma."
"That's coma estúpido," said the other getting closer to Shadow's head.
Shadow turned in his sleep pulling a pillow over his head. The two young hedgehogs snickered but soon stopped as the heard their names being called from down stairs.
"ENRIQUE AND MARCUS RUEZ!" yelled a girl as she made her was through the house looking for them. "THIS IS THE LAST DAMN TIME!"
The both of them squeaked as they heard her get closer. "She's going to kill us," one whined.
"I told you we shouldn't have let Matches loose," the other stammered crouching down beside the bed.
"I'm going to grind both of you up and serve the both of you between two slices of bread," she screamed. "And when Jose and Paco get him I'm going to feed it to them and their going to say 'Mm this is good what it's made of' and I'll just answer with…" A red hedgehog girl swing open the door to the room dressed in tight jeans and an old concert T, the tips of her hair and quills were white just like the rest of her family. Her silver eyes glared down at her little brothers the remains of her black leather skirt hanging in her hand.
"PLEASE DON'T KILL US," they both pleaded kneeling on the floor.
"We didn't mean to," said Enrique who wore black and blue.
"It was an accident," Marcus explained wearing black and green. They both closed their eyes and hopped only for the worst. "We're really sorry. We'll never let Matches do that again."
Kylee's stare went from hard and cold to soft and warm as she looked down at them not completely forgetting she was mad. She sighed and knelt in front of them hugging the both tightly. "You know I can't stay mad at you two," she said with her eyes closed. "Your dragon on the other hand is a different story."
"Are you going to cook him too," whined Enrique.
"No," she replied looking at the both of them. "Down stairs now, okay." They both nodded and headed out the door Enrique chasing Marcus laughing knowing that the danger was over.
Kylee got to her feet shaking her head tossing the remains of her favorite skirt in the trash basket.
"I heard dragon meat is really good for you," mumbled Shadow. He had been watching her the whole time she was in the room not once making a sound that is until now.
"Oh so the half dead man has jokes," she said looking down at him.
"No it's not a joke it's a fact," he said sitting up and wincing at the pain. "Anyways where am I and who are you?"
"The name is Kyleena Maria Ruez," she said holding out her hand. Shadow shook it warmly pondering over her name. They let got and she smiled a little. "And this place is our home."
"Are those your kids?" he asked sitting up more his ruby eyes scanning the room.
"Me, kids," she said laughing. "Please those are my brothers and they are more trouble than they're worth." Their eyes locked for a moment before Kylee looked away.
"Well, I'm going to go call a doctor so he can take a look at you," she said moving towards the hallway. He nodded at her and she went on her way. She walked to the phone noting that the twins were on the couch then on the floor wrestling which was noted by a loud thud. She picked up the receiver and dialed the doctor's number.
"Hello Dr. Herbert," she said looking around the room. Her smile faded away. "No it's not Jose again or Paco." There was a pause on her end. "No, the twins' dragon didn't give them frost bite. Would you just listen for a second? We have a…" Her face turned a darker red than it already was. "NO I AM NOT PREGNANT! I am trying to tell you that we have and seriously injured man in this house. If you don't get your PhD ass over here right now I'm going to hurt you." She returned to her cheery mood and said through the receiver, "Thank you so much Dr. Herbert." She hung up the phone then picked it up again and began to dial another number.
"Angel, nin~a you need to get down her pronto," she said under her breath, "Yes twin trouble and much more than you can imagine."
