Eeva groaned slightly as she opened her eyes.

"Ugh...Stupid mornings..." She muttered. She moved to roll over, when she noticed the light weight in her arms, Blinking, she looked over and saw Crona was still fast asleep, innocently sucking his thumb. The brown-haired girl smiled. "Oh yeah...I almost forgot about you..." She said softly.

However, at this point, Ragnarok's seal had worn off. He burst out of Crona's body with a gasp.

"OH SWEET LORD! AIR!" he shouted out taking deep breaths.

Eeva yelped as she leaped back with wide eyes before they narrowed and she pressed a switch on her bracelet turning it into a small gun as she pointed it at the demon.

The living weapon turned to the girl and blinked at her before pointing its small fist at her. "Hey aren't you one of those chicks?" he asked.

Eeva's left eye started to twitch. "Yes. Now what are you?" she asked sternly.

The demon let out a huff as it crossed his arms. "Names Ragnarok. I know pretty awesome!" he said proud making her stare at him deadpan. "And I am the weapon for this little brat." He said pointing to a still sleeping child.

"He is not a brat!" she hissed at him her protective side showing.

The demon just scoffed at her making her anger rise. "He is! He didn't listen when he was told to kill the damn rabbit so we can eat! Oh but I have morals! Bleh!" it scoffed. "Survival is important too kid…" he said before finally realizing he was asleep. "He's asleep…" he said in a tone of surprise mixed in with relief.

"Yeah." Eeva said sternly. "And you need to keep your mouth shut or you'll wake him with all your screaming." Ragnarok raised his fists placatingly.

"All right, all right." He conceded. "Phew...No wonder I feel so rested...Man, I feel on top of the world right now...How long's he been out for?"

"Approximately nine hours, I'd wager." Eeva replied.

"Wow...Most he usually gets is four hours..." Eeva scowled.

"That's...sick."

"Say, uh...What happened to Medusa?" Ragnarok asked.

"She's dead." Eeva replied. "My sisters executed her."

The little blobs eyes widened at that. "She's dead?" he asked surprised.

"That's what I just said." She said stern.

The little demon stared at her for a moment before looking back down at the child and let out a sigh as he seemed to deflate. "So were free from that b*** huh?"

Eeva blinked at the blobs sudden change in mood. "Huh?"

"Nothing. Just…thanks I guess." It said surprising her further.

"What happened to the rude little blob?" she asked him.

"LITTLE!" it screamed at her.

"Never mind…" she deadpanned making the thing huff and cross his arms.

"I'll let that slip for now since you saved him and in extension me from that woman's fangs." He said as if he could take her down if he wanted to, something Eeva found hilarious.

"So, why the sudden attitude change?" Eeva asked. "You were very...angry and hateful towards us before." Ragnarok sighed.

"Because I had to try and whip the kid into shape, okay?" He said. "That sounds bad, I know, but if things kept going the way they were, both of us were gonna die!"

"Hmm..." Eeva looked down with a nod. "So...you tried to get Crona to do what she wanted him to so she didn't hurt him?"

"Yeah, that about sums it up." Ragnarok nodded.

"So...You're a weapon." Eeva clarified.

"Yep." The black blob replied.

"So...if you're a weapon, what turned you into...this?"

"Medusa melted me and had me replace Crona's blood."

Eevas eyes widened in horror, "That's horrible!"

"Hey! I have feelings too you know!"

"But how…that should have killed him!" she said trying to find reason behind this.

The little blob sighed and shook his head. "Magic and science mixed to create me and the black blood formula. She wanted to do…something wanted to create something evil." He said nodding his head with arms crossed. "I didn't care. I was more focused on keeping him," points at the sleeping Crona "alive."

Eevas' mind was working double time at this. What could she need to fuse weapon and mister together for?

A soft knock on her bedroom door snapped her out of those thoughts as she and Ragnarok turned to the door with wide eyes.

"Eeva…are you okay?" the soft voice of Flara asked before the sight of the handle turning was seen by the two.

The older sister walked in, and gasped at the sight of Ragnarok. "Oh no..." She squeaked.

"Hey there, gorgeous." Ragnarok flirted, hearts in his eyes. Eeva frowned.

"What, I'm not attractive enough for you?" She asked, offended.

"It's not like that at all, brownie." Ragnarok patted Eeva on the head. "I'm just not into the bookish type. I'm into...well, that." He pointed to Flara's chest.

"Eep!" Flara squeaked and covered her b***. Eeva glared at the blob.

"Stop it." She said sternly. "You might get slapped."

"Didn't we go over this? I get hurt, Crona gets hurt in the same way?"

"That doesn't give you the right to be a perv!" she scolded him.

The demon just shrugged. "Hey! Any man loves a nice pare!" he said defensively. "Besides what do you think I do besides keeping him alive?" he says pointing to the kid.

"You have magazines in there?" she blinks in surprise.

The demon rolls his eyes at the woman. "Sure, let's go with that…" he said annoyed.

"Do I need to get Espa to seal him again?" Flara asked still covering herself.

Ragnarok flinched. "No! Anything but that!" He protested. "Fine! Fine, I'm going back in, see?!" He panicked and ducked back into Crona's body. Flara sighed with relief.

"Oh good...He's gone..." She said softly, approaching her little sister. "Eeva...Um...How is he...?" Eeva smiled and held Crona to her chest gently.

"He's sleeping like a baby." The brainy brunette said with a wink. Flara giggled.

"He's so cute..." She whispered. "So tiny...Like a little doll..." The two sisters smiled down at the sleeping child before Flara turned around. "I'll leave you two alone for a bit...But...Eeva...I...I'd really like to spend some time with him some time...If...If that's okay..." Eeva smiled at her older sister.

"Of course. I'll make sure he's ready for it."

Flara smiled sincerely and then widened when she saw the child start to stir and wake up in her younger sister's arms.

He let out a cute yawn and he slowly opened his eyes only for them to grow wide in horror as he did not know where he was.

Eeva noticed right away and moved into his line of sight. "Hey buddy. It's me you're okay." She reassured him gently.

Crona stared up at her with wide eyes before finally remembering what happened the night before. "Y-You?" he asked as if shocked she was here.

As Flara smiled and left the room, Eeva nodded. "Yes, me."

"I wasn't dreaming then..." Eeva nodded.

"That's right, no dream. I'm very very real." She replied. "Now...How do you feel?" Crona opened his mouth to reply, and then his tummy growled. He blushed, and Eeva giggled.

"Hungry? Yeah...Me too." She pressed a button on a nearby remote, and something began to work in her lab. "My breakfast machine will take care of it!"

"Breakfast machine?" he asked confused. He doesn't remember eating much in his life except maybe some mush that his mother had given him in a messy bowl.

Eeva nodded her head with pride. "That's right! Who has time to make breakfast in the morning? So I came up with this wonderful machine that makes breakfast for us instead!"

There was a ding and a small panel opened up from the side of the bed and a metal arm holding a plate of freshly cooked pancakes.

She smiled wide at her breakfast as she took a napkin and wrapped it around the little boy's neck and around her own. "Oh chocolate chip pancakes my favorite!" she said picking up her fork and knife and cutting a small bit and dipped it in syrup before lifting it up to the child. "Open wide."

Crona blinked and tilted his head, but decided to comply. "Ahhh..." He said softly. Giggling, Eeva placed the forkful of pancake in his mouth. He chewed, and almost cried at the taste of food. Eeva noticed, and gave him a smile.

"Do you need a moment? I know it's probably a big change from what you're used to..." Crona just leaned into her side.

"So good..." He said, beginning to tear up.

"Yeah? You really like it?" Crona nodded and snuggled closer to her.

Eeva smiled softly down at him and ran her hand through his hair. "Let it out buddy." She said softly to him.

Crona sniveled and started to sob softly again. "T-Thank you…" he said softly in-between sobs.

Eeva smiled down at him. "Your welcome buddy." She said softly.

After a little bit the boy pulled himself from her and wiped his eyes with a soft groan making her giggle at the cute act.

"Why are you laughing at me?" he asked timidly.

"Oh, you're just cute." She replied with a shrug, making him blush.

"Y-You really think so...?" She nodded.

"Flara and I were just talking about it earlier. She said you looked like a cute little doll."

"A-A doll...?"

"Yup. So cute and small. That and your skin is so pale it looks like plastic…something to work on I promise you." She said with a wink.

Crona stared up at her confused making her sigh softly and shake her head.

"Never mind. Let's finish eating." She lifted another slice of pancake to him which he opened his mouth with an "Ahhhh" instantly.

She smiled and fed him and herself till there was nothing else. She laid back in her bed with him resting on her and she pressed another switch having the dishes travel into a panel and down to the kitchen and into the sink.

"That was good." She said content with the small child nodding against her.

"Mm-hmm..." He said softly, shyly. Eeva smiled and stroked his hair.

"...You're a good boy, Crona...You know that, right?" She asked. Crona blushed and snuggled closer.

"I...I try to be...Thank you..." He said softly.

"I mean it...You're the sweetest little thing I've ever met, and anyone would be lucky to have you as a son."

His shoulders sagged and he replied back with a sad and broken voice. "Then why didn't mine?"

Eeva felt her heart break at this as she held him tightly to her. "Because she was a stupid food who didn't know what she had." She said softly to him.

Crona snuggled more into her. "I…I want a mommy…I wanted her to love me…why didn't she?" he asked with tears falling and he started to sob loudly letting the pain of his abuse go free.

Eeva's shoulders sagged. "There's...bad people out there. Some people aren't fit to be parents, and she was one of them." She said calmly.

"Wh-Why'd I have to get a bad parent...?" Crona asked softly. Eeva sighed sadly, then looked around her room. She smiled when her eyes laid on a specific item that she got up to retrieve, still holding Crona close.

"Here..." Crona opened his eyes to see Eeva was trying to give him a teddy bear.

"W-What is it?" he asked.

"It's a teddy bear. His name is Fluffles."

"Fluffles?" he asked.

"Yup!" she beamed at him. "He helps little boys and girls feel better! He wants to be your friend!"

"He…dose?"

"Yup!" she handed him the bear which he took and held out to stare into his button eyes.

"Hi…Fluffles…" he whispered.

He stared at the bear for several more moments. He then quickly decided he liked it. He hugged it tightly, smiling softly. Eeva smiled warmly. "You like him, huh?" She said.

"He's soft...And warm..." Eeva giggled.

"He is, isn't he?" She said gently.

"Thank you...for letting me have Fluffles..."

"Yeah, no problem." Eeva said. "...Hey, you wanna see something cool?" She asked. Crona tilted his head. "Me and my sisters all have a very special power...We can transform."

"T-Transform...?" Crona asked curiously. "Into what?" Eeva winked.

"Well, I call my transformation Eevee. Wanna see it?"

The little boy gave a slow nod and Eeva smiled and sat him down on the desk. She gave him a wink and closed her eyes to focus. This was the only spell she knew worked and she was rather proud at it.

Slowly her form started to shift and Crona watched with wide eyes as her form shifted and soon a small brown fox was staring up at him with big brown eyes. "Vree!" it said and jumped on the table with him and licked his cheek making him giggle.

He patted her head and behind her ear making the small animal purr and nuzzle into him making him smile. "So fluffy…" he said softly.

The little animal giggled. "Vwee..." It said, snuggling in closer to him.

After a while of petting, Eeva decided to change back to normal. She hopped onto the floor and shifted back to her human self. "So, that's the only magic I know...and all it can do is look cute."

"I...I really like it...You're like a soft little bunny rabbit when you do that..." Crona admitted. Eeva giggled, then leaned down and pressed a soft, gentle kiss on the little boy's forehead.

His eyes grew wide at the act as he stared up at her.

Eeva let her lips linger for a moment before pulling away and when she saw his confused look smiled softly down at him. "That was a kiss buddy." She explained.

"A…kiss?" he asked not understanding.

"It's how we show those we care affection." She explained.

His eyes grew wide at her. "Y-You care?"

"We all care buddy. My sisters and I. All of us care about you." She said softly running her fingers through his hair.

He sniffed softly and gave her a tiny smile. "T-Thank you…"

"Aww, your welcome buddy." She said gladly. She decided to try and push a little. "Do you want to meat one of my sisters?" she asked.

Crona was hesitant to, but if they were anything like Miss Eeva then he should be fine. He gave her a soft timid nod.

Eeva smiled softly. "C'mon...Let me take you to her room..."

"Um...Actually...I was watching you two..." Flara's voice sounded out. Eeva frowned.

"Flara, spying? That's what I'd expect from Umbra or Sylva."

"I'm sorry...It's just...you two are so cute..." Flara said, blushing slightly. Eeva smirked.

"Well, I gave Crona a teddy bear and made sure he was ready to meet you, just like you wanted." Flara smiled widely.

"Oh, good..." She said softly. "H-Hi there, sweetheart." She looked Crona in the eyes. "I'm Flara."

Crona stared into her warm eyes and at first he was nervous but a memory suddenly came to him being held by the woman in front of him. Slowly he reached his arms out to her wanting to be held by her.

Flara smiled warmly down at him and took the child in her arms cradling him like a baby. "Hi sweetie." She cooed gently down at him warmly.

"H-Hi…Miss Flara…" he said softly with a tiny smile already warming up to her.

Eeva watched with a smile holding a hand over her chest at the cute display. She was thinking that he will fit in well here and was thinking of things to make him to play with.

"Hey, Flara, why don't you take him around the castle and give him a tour? I'm gonna make him some surprises." She said with a wink. Flara smiled.

"Aw, how thoughtful of you, Eeva." She cooed.

"Surprises...?" Crona asked softly.

"You'll see~!" Eeva said with a closed-eyed smile.

Crona gave her a slight nod and a smile.

Flara smiled down at him and at her young sister. "Let's show you your new home Crona." She said softly and left the room with him waving at Eeva who waved back with a bright smile.
