"Great" Shizuka opened her eyes. They were in the same backyard of the school where Irina transported them the first time. Her brother and sister were still sleeping, something she was pretty relieved of. If not she wasn´t sure if she would be able to keep herself from killing them for everything.

"Perhaps I should go home now, my family must be worried sick" Kuzuhara said, retiring. That group was weird… but good. Specially Irina… but he will keep her away from his grandfather, as her phobia to traffic police got bigger because of her stay in the past. Shinichi gave his sister a hand, leaving the Heiwajima siblings there. Soon the last members of the group disappeared, leaving the three alone.

"Do you want to eat something special?" asked the older Kishitani to his little sister, who was looking around for her mother´s horses. "I think mom is going to make some spaghetti today… or at least warm it down" Irina continued with her search. "Don´t worry, the weirdo of the family is dinning with Emilia and Kaname… something I don´t want to think about."

"Is aunt Kasane spending the night with us?"

"Easy there, mom wouldn´t let her. Do you remember what happened last time dad and that stalker were together?" they sighed. "Besides, not even dad wants her there, she is too weird even for his taste. And he lived most of his live with Shingen Kishitani"

"Nii-san?"

"What?"

"For being such a strange person, you said very wise things" Shinichi froze on the spot. his imouto between all people thought he was strange. And that meant that he was in real problems. Yes, he should worry about himself more. "Let´s go, we have to find mom before I die of hunger."

"Maybe the correct thing to do was going to the house, she should be there right now" they continued with their travel, until they reached the apartment. Celty opened the door and immediately engulfed her children in her black smoke, covering them entirely. She has been so worried about them. When they finally made them release her, the next person to cover them in kisses and hugs was none other than…

"My little kiddies!" Kasane Kinomiya was being too much affectionate for being the half aunt of two kids she only saw on Christmas if she was able to get close to the house. "Where have you been?! Auntie has been worried about you, meanies. I so much wanted to see you and learn how you lived!"

"Hello to you two, aunt Kasane" Irina said, trying to get away from her. She glared at her brother, who just shook his shoulders. He was starting to wonder if he was wrong and the meeting of hell with Shingen, Emilia and Kaname wasn´t better. Celty gave him the answer when she put a plate of sweet potatoes on the table. This made Kasane leave the children in peace.

"Eat them before you turn someone crazy" the dullahan signalled the table, where the journalist sat down and started gorging down on the thing. The transportist rolled her eyes, something she still enjoyed to do, and pulled a seat for her to sit. Her children followed the effort, sitting down in front of their respective plates.

"Thank you, big sister!" Shinra´s half-sister was the only one making noise, something that was so much like her brother that no one could have doubted that they were family. (Shizuo made that mistake when he first met the girl, whispering to Shinra that he had an stalker. Unfortunately, he learned then that she was his sister and just as crazy as the underground doctor. Then he walked to Izaya and handed him twenty bucks (they made a bet that Kururi and Mairu were or weren´t the craziest little siblings in their groups))

"Just eat" the headless ridder walked to the stove and put some spaghetti on the plates. In that moment the door opened. Shinra walked in, surprising everyone in the room. "Hello, weren´t you trapped in the family reunion of doom?"

"A Shizuo-Izaya fight interrupted it and gave me the perfect excuse to leave it" the underground doctor was happy. He was able to leave the contest of glares his parents and stepmother staged in the middle of the restaurant. He didn´t even know why Kaname came if she wasn´t even interested on her son or meeting her grandchildren. "God, I was so grateful to them that I decided to use some of my savings to put new vending machines."

"They will surely appreciate it" or at least Izaya´s credit card would… if he cared about what destruction his family caused to the city. Or paying for it. The amount of the debt should be even more than he could afford. "Tell me, what part of the city was destroyed by them now? I hope it didn´t mess with my plans."

"Oh, no, they fought in Shinjuku" this surprised her a bit. Normally they came back to Ikebukuro to fight, where the people was used to dodge vending machines or knifes… and know who to call in the case some people were injured. Which most of the times meant Shinra doing extra hours, like most of the doctors. "Fortunately, Vorona was there and had the sense to give me call."

"What was Vorona-san doing there?" asked Shinichi before noticing something was off. Then he realised he mentioned Izaya. IZAYA. "Izaya? Wasn´t he dead?"

"What? Of course not, he was in our Christmas party last year" his son continued to stare at him as if he was crazy. "Yes, I know. With all the marital spats he had with Shizuo and the tries of some of his clients to murder him it´s a wonder that he is still alive, but apparently evil never dies, so…" he rolled his eyes. "Anyway, answering your first question, apparently she was meeting with her father"

"Meeting with her father?" Celty knew Drakon because of a few reunions she had to transport some of his weapons, but she never saw the mechanical man interact with his daughter. "Since when does she meet with her father?"

"Since he tried to willingly reconnect with her" he rolled his eyes. Kaname was much like that man and he didn´t appreciate it. "Much like my mother did"

"Okay, maybe we should calm down and return to other things, much like what you were telling about Shizou and Izaya fighting in Shinjuku of all places possible. I thought that they had the common sense to keep street signs in their place in the city they live in."

"Yes, let´s return to Izaya" Shinichi continued. "Wasn´t he dead?"

"Where did you get that ridiculous ideas?" Shinra continued. "No, he isn´t dead. Of course, a normal person should be with the kind of activity he does…"

"Quit babbling"

"What? Izaya has been about to die quite the few times and most of them was either Shizou or a customer of his that didn´t take his jokes well" they all understood what that meant, especially since the Awakusu incident… when that happened he was lucky that Shizuo was ready to come to his rescue and Shinra to attend serious bullet injuries or he would have bleed out of his injury on the chest. "don´t you remember last time Shiki-san had to put a limit to what he had to do?"

"Yes, but he deserved it and is a little bit exaggerated" the irish fairy remembered the times the informant gave birth to his children. He was screaming bloody murder even before the actual labour started, making her question if this was the usual cocky raven that faced the monster of Ikebukuro. The twins birth was a real nightmare and Ibuki´s was a huge mess where even Shinra got nervous. "Well, why were they fighting about now?"

"Apparently their children didn´t arrive home yesterday night" started saying the underground doctor, taking a huge zip of his juice. "They were worried and, as the previous incidents pointed, when stressed the only way to release pressure they knew is fight. So they accused each other of being the culprit, started banging a few walls and throwing knifes while searching them and, sooner than later, they started world war three."

"Your friends seemed to be very nice, nii-san" Kasane commented. The whole family saw stared at her as if she was some sort of crazy… which, knowing the family she had, was probably true.

"Eat your food" Celty said, sending her a glare. "What did you do to pacify both of them?"

"I shot them with this sedative" he pulled out something from his lab coat which resembled a little dart. "It´s something I breved specially for Shizuo, since I didn´t want him to make such a mess every time he argues with Izaya about the amount of milk in the apartment. The city is going to give me an award for that… given that they didn´t kill me for giving them a migraine the calibre of a drill splitting their brains."

"Maybe I should send my horse to guard the house" she stood up. "I will come back when I´m finished."

"Pssst" Shinichi caught her sister´s attention, something that was very unusual. "The twins and their brother are up for a surprise, don´t you think?"

"The best of their lives"

-In Shinjuku-

"Hummmm" Ange was trying to find what to say, but somehow the words never came to her mind. It was a big surprise that the first thing she saw when she entered to her family´s apartment was her mother, coming towards her with a bag of ice on his head. Izaya, for his part was relieved. "First of all, I want to…"

"Sweetie, if you want to apologize for not coming home any day of this week, you can keep it" the other raven said, drinking some tranquilizers with his coffee. "We all know you don´t mean it."

"Alright…"

"And how many times have I told you this? You have to wear your actual uniform to school, not a dress and high heels" he signalled, quickly giving his coffee another zip. "And no, you can´t modify your uniform."

"That´s quite Hippocratic of you, since you used to wear your old high school clothes to the middle school" she crossed her arms, looking high and mighty. Oh, how she loved to have her mother back. "Besides, I dressed after school. You never said I can´t change clothes after school to look more like myself."

"Just eat your food"

"Eh?" everybody around him beside Shizuo was surprised. This was nothing like the Izaya she came to know from the past. He would have never passed the opportunity to play with his daughter. "That´s it? No imaginative response or smartass comment that will put her on her place?"

"How well you know me, baby" Orihara smiled with a lot of work. "Right now I had such a headache that can´t think of even my precious humans, so…" he groaned. "Damn, what the hell did Shinra put in that dart?"

"If I had a guess, poison" Shizuo finally answered, pressing his own bag of ice to his head. "Next time I see him I´m going to show him exactly what I think of that medicine."

"I will help" the informant growled. The twins quickly finished eating and managed to shoo their parents to their room, so they could sleep a bit. The name Shinra didn´t gave them any confidence, especially since he was administrating experimental medicine to their family. Shizuka pulled out her books, turning on the television. Apparently, there was a huge commotion over the new movie of Hannejima Yuuhei.

"Hey, Ange, dad is going to take us to the movies this weekend, is there some homework you need to do for the next week? You better do all of them right now to…"

"I don´t have to do nothing" Ange opened her computer in her room, searching for the chat room where she used to torment her victims. "If you excuse me, I want to do some people watching. There had been some interesting suicide pacts in the net that I don´t want to miss going…."

"You are not cheating any more girls into killing themselves" the older twin grabbed her from that coat she liked so much and dragged her towards the TV room. "Now you are sitting down with us and seeing a movie. Am I clear?"

"Awww, come on!" she pouted in a childish way. "I´m a fully grown up woman and a good informant. Can´t I make whatever I want" the raven pulled out her phone only to realise that somehow someone had blocked all her chats. For a second she wondered who could do this to her… but there was only one person she knew that was capable of doing something like that. "That bastard…"

"He is only looking for you… for once" Shizuka rolled her eyes after seeing her mother´s fine work. "So now that you are out of commission for a while, let´s see that movie. I think dad bought a new one last Friday that…"

"Is Hanejima Yuuhei´s work"

"How do you know it´s Hanejima Yuuhei´s movie?"

"It´s always Hanejima Yuuhei´s movie" the younger twin grabbed a mug of tea her brother was offering. "Dad is obsessed with uncle Kasuka´s work, enough to buy some of the movies in their original language" she sighed. "How are you going to understand the movie? Me and Ibuki, I could understand, but you suck at English."

"Don´t push it, parasite" the elder twin sat down on the couch, at Ibuki´s other side. Yes, using their little brother as lightning rod seemed to be the only way they could sit down together. She put play on and started watching. In the middle of the movie, both girls got into an argument about the plot, something that could only end up with a few knives deep into the wall and the fridge out of the apartment. He balanced some of the options... and the answer their parents would have… yes, it was the best option.

"You are a stupid monster!"

"And you a stinking flea!" their voices started to raise. He calmly took some of his senbons from his jacket, throwing them at his sisters. They immediately went limp and felt to the ground, unconscious. Now the house was in silence and he could watch in calm.

"I love my family" he commented, leaving his siblings in the cold floor.

-The next day-

"Did he needed to let us on the cold floor the other night?" Ange rubbed her neck while her sister ate next to her. The Heiwajima twins would never eat together, but today Shizuka wanted to make sure the raven behaved. Her mother gave her that mission when he noticed the absence rate of his youngest daughter. "And what is the point in going to school? I already know what they are teaching us for the rest of the year."

"Well, even if you are genius you can´t graduate if you don´t appear in the classroom from time to time" the blond rolled her eyes. "Eat and quit complaining, mom only want you to get your certificate" she started seeing all the people around. "Are you planning to go to university at all? Any of you?"

"I´m going to Tokyo´s university" Ange simply answer. "Only I in this table, not talking about this school, that has the intellect to do so."

"Don´t push it, flea" her sister growled. "Shinichi?"

"Dad is home schooling me"

"So you are going to be a doctor, eh?" the woman looked at little Irina, but perhaps it was too early to ask her. "I think I will be an economist, I´m pretty good with numbers after all"

"You are also pretty good at launching vending machines and I don´t see you entering to the Olympics" Shizuka´s eyebrow twitched, wanting nothing more than hit her sister with the biggest heaviest thing in the room. "By the way, there was something wrong the day before we came back. Shinjuku looked like a war zone this morning."

"What do you think?" Irina answered. "Your parents got into a fight that afternoon. My father had to sedate them!"

"That explains their headache"

-After the school-

"You know, sometimes I envy auntie Kururi and auntie Mairu" commented the eldest twin, walking by her sister´s side towards the train. "They are so different, yet they get along so well… they made being twins sound easy!"

"I could never envy them, I enjoy fighting with you, Shizu-neechan" Ange walked, people watching while she did so. Oh, how much she will enjoy toying with this city… as soon as she manages to break her mother´s firewalls to enter the damn chatroom. "Aunties are so weird that it creeps me out to be with them. Besides, mom says they are crazy."

"Mom is the one that´s crazy" Shizuka said, not knowing what else to answer. It wasn´t as if their aunts behaved like a normal pair of sisters… hell, he would give them a price if their conduct could be considered remotely normal. "Besides, his craziness is the only one that is dangerous to the humankind."

"Of course not! He guides humanity!" the raven suddenly was offended. "And he is never wrong, aunties are completely insane. Haven´t you seen them kiss a screen with the face of uncle Kasuka?"

"That was very disturbing, yes" Shizuka conceded. "But that doesn´t mean they are crazy"

"Really? Like I said, mom was never wrong before"

"He was wrong when he said that uncle Kasuka was coming back from Hollywood before our birth" stated the blond. "It´s been years and he is still on the United States."

"Well… just that one time" Ange crossed her arms. "Besides, not calling them crazy it´s like not calling you a dumb monster… Shizu-nee-chan."

"You, little…" the older twin´s hand twitched, as she grabbed the first heavy object at reach, which happened to be a stop sign. Her sister only smiled, taking off her pocket knife. "I will show you who is dumb monster!" she three it, but the other´s extensive training in parkudor allowed her to dodge. "Don´t dodge me, dammit! Come back here!" she pursuit the retiring informant. "Come back here, you flea!"

"Good thing I´m leaving for Tokyo next year! I don´t think Ikebukuro can take more of your epic rages, nee-san!"

"I can send you flying there right now if you want!" Ange continued running, occasionally jumping and evading. Yes, this was right like she liked things. And she hoped that it never changed.

Hey! And now, this is the end of the fic. It was a nice surprise for the twins, no? They deserved it after defeating Kujiragi. Well, I´m thinking about some sort of sequel, perhaps with Kasuka and Ruri comming to visit... but only if you ask for it. Well, review!
