Ace turned completly, his ears twitched. "Uhuh....." Aulii was now sitting beside Zeki, they were both staring at him.
Aulii smiled. "Thats the most you have ever said!" She looked over at Zeki. "Right Zeki?"
Kikoto turned. "Well, you can wait for your brother at home from now on! Because I am not letting you out of this house, and even if you do escape, your father will find you."

"Is it my fault that people pull on my ears!? What am I supposed to do, let them pull them off!?" Kineta glared at her mother with icy eyes, getting frustrated. There was nothing she hated more than being stuck inside, or having people tug on her ears. It hurt, that was why she fought back.
"Yeah, pretty much." Zeki smiled at Ace.

Ace blinked. "I talk a lot, you just never hear." He turned and started gazing back outside the window.
Aulii looked over. "Do you ever hear him?"
Kikoto sighed. "Tell them to stop it, and why. If they don't stop, just walk away!"

"I've TRIED that. They don't listen, they just pull harder!" Kineta wanted to scream, but she didn't, barely holding in her frustration and anger.
Zeki shook his head. "Nope." He shrugged, then looked out the window. He imitated their teacher silently, raising his hand as if it was a mouth talking. He finished with that, and smirked. It was good to make fun of his teacher when that teacher wasn't looking.

Aulii watched Ace's black, with the exeption of three white stripes across them, ears move at different angles to listen to them. "Ace, your listening to us right?" His hears turned to face her. "Look Zeki! Hes listening!" She laughed.

Zeki watched Ace's ears with interest, and smiled. "I know." He grinned over at Aulii, he had seen Ace listening before without turning his head.
Kineta could barely take it anymore. She stood, walked to the kitchen, and got a drink of water. She downed it, then shot for the door. She didn't realize that there was a piece of paper straight in her path, and she slipped on it, hitting the ground hard, then lying on her stomach, eyes shut tight, her arms around the back of her head. Another escape plot had been foiled.

Aces ears turned again. One facing Aulii and one facing Zeki. Suddenly he felt someone petting his ear. It twitched but he didn't do anything about it.
Aulii backed away from his ears and smiled. "There soft." She laughed with his ears turned to listen to her again. "Hey Ace, how do your ears stay so soft?" "I take care of them." "You brush your ears?" "No. I wash them." "Oh." She turned to Zeki smiling. "There really soft!"

Zeki laughed, but left his ears alone. Then he thought of something totally off topic. "Hey, Ace...if you don't mind me asking, why is your sister always starting fights?" He asked suddenly, out of the blue.

Aces ears turned to Zeki, and Ace turned around, facing them, then his ears turned forward, listening to his oun voice. "People touch her ears. She hates that so she starts fighting with them." He jumped up and sat on the window ledge. It was a two story building, and the were on the top floor.

"I saw some of what happened yesterday...I should've realized that was the case. One of the older guys grabbed her ear and wouldn't let go, but there were four others behind him...I hope she's okay." Zeki smiled, watching Ace's ears angle back to listen. He loved watching the two Cats' oversized ears turn to listen, when he saw them, that is.

Ace nodded. "Shes fine." Suddenly his ears went flat on his head and he covered them with his hands, his eyes closed tight, then he fell over. Outside people had small whistles that gave off a very high note that only few people could hear. Ace was one of them.

Zeki stared at Ace for a second, then helped him sit up. "What's wrong?" He asked, not realizing that people outside had whistles that only Ace could hear because of his sensitive hearing.
Kineta finally stood up, rubbing her head where she had managed to slam it into the bottom of the door on her sliding stop. She sighed. "Can I PLEASE go outside!?" She pleaded, looking at her mother with puppy dog eyes.

Kikoto shook her head. "Ask your father when he comes home for lunch, he should be here any minute. Until then, sit." She pointed to a chair.
Aulii crouched down beside Ace, then looked outside the window. "HEY PUT THOSE THINGS AWAY!" She watched as the little children who had them stared up at her, then put them away and ran. She crouched beside Ace again.
Ace lowered his hands from his ears and his ears popped up again with a spring, then he ooked around.

Zeki sat beside Ace, then watched his ears spring up. "You okay, Ace?" He asked with concern in his voice. He didn't like seeing people tormented for no reason, it made his fast temper flare up like an inferno on gasoline-soaked wood. He cocked his head, looking at the Cat with his soft grey eyes.
Kineta sighed. "I already know what the answer is! Why can't I go outside?" She walked over to the chair, sprang up onto it, and angled her ears back, listening intently to her mother, or for footsteps approaching to shove her off her precarious perch. Her baggy black pants hung loose over her bent knees, and she braced one hand on the back of her chair, the other on the seat. One knee pointed slightly down, the other was drawn up to her chest. Her ear was starting to itch, and it twitched, then she reached up and scratched it, tilting her head to one side and flattening that ear. She still had bruises up her arms and over her shoulders and back, and a gash under one eye, but that was almost it. Her ear would take longer to heal.

"Well then don't complain!" She looked up when she heard someone approching their home.
Ace nodded. "Yeah i'm fine." He stood up. It was lunch time." But i'm going to eat, bye." His ears faced back at them as he walked away.

"You ever been stuck inside with nothing to do, ALL DAY?" Kineta snapped, then sprang off the chair, being careful to kick it over as she did so, then darted into her room and slammed the door shut. She threw herself onto her bed, and walked to the window. She leapt up, and landed on the ledge, then gazed outside. It was her only way out, except for the door, and she wasn't in the mood to smash a window at the moment.
Seth walked into the house. "Hey Kiko." He smiled at her, then looked past her to the closed door of Kineta's room. He had heard the door slam, so he didn't say anything about that.

Seth smiled, and hugged her close. I don't know...exactly how bad? He asked softly, kissing her forehead.
Kineta heard her parents, but blocked them out, flattening her ears, and pressing her forehead against the window, gazing outside. Why can't I go outside?

Seth wrapped his arms around her, and pulled her close. I would let her out, if she didn't start so many fights. What I'm worried about is her heading down to the school to be with Ace and getting herself hurt again.

Kikoto nodded. Once Ace gets home we will let her out.
Ace walked back into the classroom after lunch and sat there, doing nothing. The class still wasn't back, and the only other people his age left in the school were Zeki and Aulii.

Alright. Seth smiled, then listened to a heavy thump coming from Kineta's room. I'll go see about that... He let go of Kikoto, then walked over to Kineta's room, and opened the door.
Kineta had lost her balance, and fallen off the window ledge. She sat on the floor, shaking her head slightly. She didn't look up when her father came to her room, she just flattened her ears. She was not in a good mood. "What? Do I have to stay in my room for the rest of my life now?"

Dray sat at home, drawing out prints for a building. He yawned then stood up and walked to the door, leaning against it. School was over now. He looked back at Galia, who was in the kitchen and smiled. "I think you work to hard Gali." He turned and walked back to her then hugged her from behind.
Aulii walked out of her classroom and went to her locker. She opened it and put her things inside then she felt two arms go around her waist and she screamed. "GET OFF!!!! GET OFF!!!!!!" It was the guy that had targeted her that morning. "Whats wrong Aulii?" "GET OFF OF ME!" "No, Your comming with me." He picked her up and carried her outside then towards his home. "My parents arn't home, there not going to be fo a while.... How would you like to have some fun with me?" "GET OFF! LET ME GO!!!" She started kicking but he was to strong for her. His house was much firther away then hers, and if she got away, she wouldn't be able to get there before she was caught again. "LET ME GO!!!!!" She felt him starting to feel her up. "STOP IT!!!!"

Galia smiled, looking up at him, and kissing his cheek. "I love you so much..." She murmured, pushing her chair away to one side, and standing up, leaning her head back on his shoulder.
Zeki had been watching, stunned for a moment, before he kicked back into gear. He shot after the one who had caught Aulii, and caught up to him, since he was running at full speed, and Zeki was fast. He jumped on him, wrapping his arm around his neck, his eyes blazing. "Let her go NOW." He hissed, tightening his hold on the other's neck. No one messed with Aulii, not when he was around. Zeki was not particularly tall, but he was strong and fast, and the other was starting to gasp for air.
Kineta darted out of her room, and watched the road from the window, looking for her twin brother. "When can I go back outside?" She asked suddenly, listening for a response.
"Once Ace comes home." "HURRY UP ACE!"

Aulii felt his grip loosen and she darted away then drew her sword. "Back off!" She say the fear in his eyes. "Let him go Zeki."
Ace trudged home, the teacher had given him loads of homework again, and he sighed. He finally got home then plunked down at the table and started doing his homework.
Dray smiled then kissed her lovingly. "You know its true. You raised Zeki, and you cook and clean and all that stuff all day long...." He hugged her close. "Your amazing." He turned her so she was facing him then kissed her.

Galia wrapped her arms around his neck, and pulled him close, closing her eyes. "I do it so that you don't have to tire yourself out every day." She smiled, kissing him back lovingly.
Zeki smirked. Aulii was good with a sword, he knew she was. He turned the other loose, dashed away, and watching him staring at the glinting blade, as if he couldn't quite believe that he was about to be attacked with it.
Kineta leaped off the table, suddenly in a better mood, when Ace returned. She looked over his shoulder at his work. "I wish I could help..." She murmured softly, then petted his ear gently, hugged him, and shot out the door. She ran to her favourite fishing spot, and stood in the water again. This time, she was catching fish for all their suppers. She jumped a good, fat salmon that had swum up from Amkata, and killed it, then made a little pool where her prize wouldn't float away, and caught a small trout to go with it. Happy with her catch, she picked them up, and started running home, carrying the heavy salmon in one hand, the little trout in the other. She made it home without mishap, and bounded in the door. "I got supper!" She announced, then walked into the kitchen. She hadn't bothered putting boots on before she went outside, so she left dirt tracks behind her. She filled a bucket with water and put the salmon in it, then worked on the little fish. She would let Kikoto cook, she would likely burn it.

Kikoto came out of the hall smiling. "Thats great dear." She looked at the dirt tracks and sighed, then started cleaning the wooden boards up. Soon Kineta was done with the fish, she started to cook them, then put four plates on the table. "Ace, time to eat, stop working." "I can't I have to finish it." "You can finish after." "Fine" Ace grumbled and started to eat his fish.
Aulii took one step forward then laughed as the guy took of running. "DON'T TOUCH ME!!!!!" She shelthed her sword then ran up to Zeki. "Zeki!!!" She hugged him, she didn't show it, but she was terrified at the moment.

Zeki hugged her gently. He could sense that she was scared, and he looked at her. "You okay, Aulii?" He asked softly, tilting his head to one side.
Kineta carried the unwanted pieces of fish outside, and dropped them a good half mile from the house, then ran back and practically flew through the door, opening it just in time. She bounded into her chair, and wolfed it down, hungry from not eating for most of the day. "Mm, thanks Mom." She smiled, then finished her fish, flicking her ears with satisfaction. She loved eating fish, it seemed to have something to do with being a cat.

Ace ate quietly, then he finished and cleared his plate like he had always been taught to do after finishing, then sat and started to work again.
Aulii didn't want to let Zeki go, but sis did. "NO!" Se sat down and hugged her knees close to her chest.

Zeki sat down beside her, and wrapped one arm around her shoulders. "It's okay Aulii...want to come to my house for supper?" He asked, then hugged her close, trying to make her feel better. His soft grey eyes were dark with concern for her.
Kineta picked up all the plates, and carried them to the kitchen, then washed them, and went outside again, climbing into her tree and pouncing on a bug in the branches, happy now that she was allowed back outdoors.
