Mordred kissed Gwen, waved to Vortigern, Spike and the rest of his friends and stepped back from them. "I'll be back in few!" He closed his eyes, concentrated and 'ported.
He appeared in the girls's bedroom, and then stumbled over a body. Immediately the body woke up and started yelling. Mordred rolled his eyes mentally; tonight wuld have to be the night that Roy's obnoxious offspring would be staying over. He hoped the little brats fried tomorrow. He covered his eyes as the lights snapped on. "Aw, Jesus! Warn a guy, would ya?" He said in annoyance.
"Mord!" Siobhan squealed and leapt for him. He caught her easily. "You came!"
"Yeah, well, I said I would. Are you and Mary ready to go?" Mordred said lightly as he blinked his eyes clear of tears from the shock from the light. He glowered at Roy in the doorway, then down at the yelling brat at his feet. "Shut yer trap, yer little whiner."
"Don't you speak to my kids like that," Roy growled. Mordred ignored him.
"Mary! We're going now! Get your bag and Siobhan's." Mordred cradled the sleepy Siobhan to his side as he looked around for Mary. "Where's Mary?"
"Da made her sleep out on the couch so Timmy could have her bed," Siobhan said tactlessly. Mordred shot a glare of absolute hatred at Roy, before teleporting to the living room.
"Mary!" Mordred looked around for Mary. She was yawning and sitting up in a sleeping bag on the floor. "It's time to go, darling."
"It is?" Mary looked serious with her hair done up in little braids for sleeping. She wriggled out of her sleeping bag and went to go get her and Siobhan's bag.
"Mordred?" His mother sounded confused.
"'Lo, Mam. This is yer last chance. Come with me," he pleaded. She shook her head.
"I, I can't."
"Yes, *you can*," Mordred snapped out. Mary sidled past her mother and Roy, disappearing into the bedroom. "You can come with me. Leave him. He ain't worth dying for."
"Mordred..." His mother just shook her head, looking pale and tired. "I *can't*."
"Fine. But I am taking the girls." Mary hurried back over to his side. Roy reached forward and grabbed Mary's shoulder in a painful grip. She cried out and dropped the bags shewas carrying.
"Roy!" His mother stepped forward for a moment then subsided as Roy glared at her. Mordred's lips drew back from his teeth in fury.
"Let. Her. *Go*." Siobhan started to cry in great hiccuping sobs as Mary winced. Mordred carefully put Siobhan down on the ground. "Last warning, gurrier," he said in an icy voice. Roy sneered, and Mordred bounded forward, one hand pulling Mary away and the other one coming up to punch Roy in the face. He grunted as his nose broke but felt his own fist smash into Roy's eye. Grabbing the two girls and scooping the bags into his arms, Mordred teleported. He swayed for a moment, arms around the two hysterically crying children, then crumpled to the ground, nose and mouth streaming blood.
Gwen
Gwen rushed forward as Mordred ported back. She lifted his head into her lap gently, and ripped the bottom of her shirt and dabbed at the blood on his face.
"Are you ok?" she asked.
Gwen looked up to see Siobhan and Mary. She extended her free arm and reached over and hugged the two children gently, then released them and motioned for Vortigern to come forward and take them.
Llewyns
"Roy packs a hell of a punch for a guy that hits women and little kids," Mordred said as he tried to sit up. Vortigern picked up Siobhan and rocked her gently while Mary clung to his leg. Spike talked to Siobhan and flashed into gameface for a second. This prompted a giggle.
"You know, your sister is probably the only kid on the face of the bleeding planet to find a vampire's true face funny," Spike said, before grinning around his fangs at Siobhan.
"Kitty!" Siobhan declared and reached for Spike. The vampire took her from his lover who then picked up Mary to comfort her.
"Roy grabbed me around the shoulder. It hurts," Mary said to Vortigern. He flipped up the top of her pajamas and sucked in a breath at the already purpling fingermarks around her neck and shoulder.
"Can I kill 'im, luv?" Spike asked Vortigern.
"He'll be dead tomorrow," Vortigern said coldly.
Gwen
Gwen wiped the blood from Mordred's face and helped him up, letting herself support his weight. She kissed his head softly.
"You sure you're ok?"
Llewyns and Nyx
"Yeah, I'll be fine. He broke my nose though." Mordred looked annoyed. "I can't wait to hear Wolverine go on about it tomorrow."
"Why wait? You got one, no two! Of your Danger Room instructors right here," Spike smirked as Nyx rushed up.
"Sweetie!" She took Mordred's face in her hands and concentrated for a second. Mordred swore as the bones of his nose healed themselves with an audible click.
"Kittykittykitty!" Siobhan declared joyfully, wriggling to be put down. Spike put her down on the flor and she ran to the cat woman. Nyx caught her up and whirled her around for a few seconds. Siobhan shrieked in delight. "Mmm, Nyxie!" She flung her arms around Nyx;s neck. Vortigern and Mary stopped whispering to each other and looked up.
"Let's get them to bed, Nyx," Vortigern said, shifting Mary onto his hip. "They're sleeping in the same corridor as us, yeah?"
"Yep." Nyx nodded. "And you guys get a real cool button to press if you need anyone during the night."
"Sounds nice." Vortigern put Mary down on the ground and she picked up her bag.
"C'mon, sweeties. Now, you'll have to help me tomorrow to get your rooms perfect..." Nyx walked away with the two little girls.
Mordred sat up and stroked Gwen's hair. "Ya ruined ya top, love."
Sammy, Stevie and Lily
Sammy, Stevie and Lily came over to see what all the commotion was.
"Hi!" Sammy said to Siobhan. "I'm Samantha, but you can call me Sammy. This is Stevie. We're six!" She sang.
Siobhan, Nyx and Mary
"Me too!" Siobhan said excitedly from her place on Nyx's hip. "You can put me down now," she said to the cat and wriggled slightly. Nyx chuckled and out her down. "Do you know Enrique? He's eight. He's my friend. He's cool and he's got blue skin like a water sprite! My name's Siobhan."
"I'm Mary."
"Mary, Mary quite contrary!" Siobhan sang, giggling. Mary smiled slightly.
"Bratling."
"Yoooouuuu betcha!"
Lily, Sammy and Stevie
"Do we know him?" Sammy asked Stevie.
"Yeah, we met him when Granny Dru brought us to the school."
"Oh yeah! He's nice. I like him," Sammy said. Then she pulled on her sister's sleeve.
"Lily, I'm hungry. Can I hunt?"
"No hunting. There's bloodbags over there," she pointed. Sammy ran over and got one, and put it in the microwave. Then she returned, in gameface, drinking through the plastic.
"You wanna come play with me?" Sammy asked Siobhan, after she'd drank half of the blood and gave the rest to Stevie.
Gwen
Gwen shrugged.
"It's alright, it's just a top. Besides, you were bleeding everywhere, it was ruin my top or pants. And I like these pants."
Mordred, Nyx and Siobhan
"Sorry, Sammy sweetie, but they have to go to bed. It's night time, and they're human. Mordred got them from their beds." Nyx smiled apolgetically at the twin child vampires. Siobhan pouted.
"I wanna plaaaaaaaayyy! Don't wanna go to sleep!"
Mordred
"Well, glad you didn't ruin ya pants then. Shall we go to bed?" Mordred asked her with a bit of a grin. "I need to wash my face."
"And we will also-eep!" Spike hoisted Vortigern over his shoulder and strode off.
"See ya in the morning!" The vampire called back. Mordred shook his head.
"He is way too fond of doing that to my twin."
Gwen
Gwen giggled.
"Night guys."
She turned to Mordred and smiled slyly.
"Yep, we should go to bed. Now."
Mordred
"I like a girl with a plan," Mordred laughed. He took her hand and teleported the two of them to their room. "Be back in a sec, love," he told her as he walked into the bathroom. He wiped his face clean of blood and sighed. Damn Roy. You know, he was actually glad that guy was going to die tomorrow. But his Mam...Mordred shook off the thought and walked back in to Gwen with a grin on his face. "What now, love?"
Gwen
Gwen grinned as MOrdred walked back into the room. She twirled her hair playfully around her fingers and looked up dreamily at him.
"Well... it's kinda cold in here..."
Mordred
"Well, I should do something about that..." Mordred walked over to her and bent down to kiss her. He started moving the two of them back towards the bed. "Better?" He asked teasingly as he started to undo her top.
Gwen
Gwen shrugged.
"I don't know... still sorta chilly."
She kissed him back and then hopped onto her bed and smiled sweetly at him.
Mordred
"Oh, we can't be having that, can we?" Mordred said mock seriously as he toed off his boots and crawled onto the bed with her. He started to kiss her senseless. "Better now? We can't have you catching cold..."
Gwen
"Things seem to be warming up," Gwen grinnec cheekily.
And then they did it. You know, sex. Shocking. Well, it wasn't actually, because Gwen can control that now.
Sammy
"I wanna play too!" Sammy declared. "You're pretty," she said to Siobhan. "Do you have Barbies?"
Siobhan, Mary and Nyx
"Yep!" Siobhan nodded, then looked up at Nyx. "Pleeeeaassseee? Can I go play?"
Nyx nibbled her lip. "Don't tell them I said you could." She looked back over at where Mordred and Vortigern had been standing. "Hey, they're gone. Go play."
"Yay!" Siobhan cheered.
"I think I'll just go read a book. Do you have a library?" Mary asked.
"Yep. We have an extremely extensive library. What's your poison?" Nyx smiled.
"Oh...something by Terry Pratchett?"
"One of my own favourite authors. We've got all his Discworld series, I made sure of that."
"Do you have Good Omens? I haven't been able to find a copy of that."
"Yep!" Nyx started to walk off trailing Mary before looking back. "Don't disturb anyone. If you want to find your room, just ask your keycard. It will direct you. C'mon, Mary."
Sammy and Stevie
"There's a whole big playroom here!" Sammy said excitedly. "With just about every doll ever! My Granny Dru has dolls, and sometimes she has tea parties with me, do you know her?" Sammy asked. Stevie pouted.
"Dolls are for girls. I'm gonna go explore!"
Siobhan
"Dru! Is Dru here too?" Siobhan asked excitedly. "Dru is my friend! She said Miss Edith liked me. Miss Edith is a pretty doll."
Sammy
"No, Granny Dru is on outer space with Papa Sabre," she said. ":But come one! WE can go play with all the dolls!" She took Siobhan's hand and led her down to the nursery, which was chocked full of toys for all ages.
"Look at all the Barbies!" Sammy cried, pointing to a corner that had two of every Barbie doll to ever exist.
Siobhan
"Wow!" The two little girls went over and started to play with all the Barbies. "Look, a horse! My horse goes clippety-clop clippety-clop." Siobhan made the white horse go up and down.
Sammy
"Look at the doggie!" Sammy said. "Woof woof!" she took a tiny hair brush and pretended to brush the plastic fur. She picked up a Skipper doll.
"Hello, do you want to go to the mall?" she said, pretending that the doll was talking.
Siobhan
"I would love to go to the mall," Siobhan made her doll talk to the Skipper doll. "Just let me get my car." Siobhan got a pink Barbie limo out of the garage of the dollhouse and put her barbie in it carefully. "Hop in!"
Sammy
Samantha slipped Skipper into the car. "Vroom vroom!" she said, as the rolled it across the table.
Siobhan
The little girls played for a while, then Siobhan started to yawn and rub her eyes. "I think I'm gonna go to bed now."
