Ronin PoV

Mmmmm~ These chalupas are amazing!

Me: Thif if veally goodth!

I said whilst stuffing my face. I heard the four of them chuckle.

Everyone but me: We can tell.

I pouted and crossed my arms but quickly went back to eating.

Mrs. Adler: So, Ronin, how did you meet my daughter?

Me: Ah, that! Vwell.

I swallowed the nearly head sized chalupa in a huge gulp before proceeding.

Me: I was on the roof of the school, and came down. I guess I must have frightened her since she got a bit spooked. I ran off before she could ask questions, but I was still called into the principles office at the end of the day.

Mrs. Adler: Priciples office? Why?

Me: Well. The roof isn't somewhere that the students should be at. Only the janitor and other staff, but I got up there with some friends. Someone-

I pointed towards Kass in the middle of some fake coughs.

Me: Decided to report it to the principle. We were dismissed and I talked to her a bit after that before heading back into the principle's office.

Mrs. Adler: You aren't a trouble maker are you?

I was in the middle of chewing on another chalupa when she asked that and choked a little when I went to laugh.

Me: Me - *cough* - a trouble maker? I'm the type of person to stay away from everyone. Doesn't matter how you think, what you look like, or how you act, I want you away from me.

Kass: And I still managed to break you out of that.

Me: Its more of the opposite really. I honestly thought you had a speech impediment with how much you stuttered when around me.

I did a fake stutter to teeze her and she started smacking my arm.

Me: Ok, ok, I dont want another bruise.

Mrs. Adler: Another?

The air seemed to freeze and I felt Kass satrt to tremble. I looked towards Kass' mom and she was glaring a very intense glare towards Kass.

Kass: Its not what you think mom.

She said, her voice trembled.

Me: Mrs. Adler, please, calm down. I tease her a lot and in retaliation she lightly slaps my arms or punches my arm. I know the consequences of mocking/teasing her but I still do it. If anything its another thing thats cute to me. It doesn't hurt that much as well, so please calm down. Cause both me and my children are getting scarred.

She seemed happy with that answer, and quickly apologized to Ember and Luna. I, however, released the tension in my spine, a shiver being sent down.

Me: Yeesh! You have one steely glare Mrs. Adler, I wish I had one as strong as yours.

She smiled sadly, and I nearly didn't catch it.

Mrs. Adler: Thank you, but I dont like using it too much. I've got enough wrinkles from trying to raise this girl. Let alone her sister.

Kass: That hurt.

Wait what?

Me: Wait. Sister?

I turned towards Kass.

Me: You never told me about a sister.

Kass: It never came up in conversation, and, well. She not really around all too often.

Mrs. Adler: She at college hun, there isn't anything we can do about that.

Kass' breathing became a bit heavier.

Kass: That doesn't mean I dont want her to be here for just a little.

A small tear came down her cheeck and four chairs squeeked across the tile floor, as her mom, me, Ember, and Luna came to her side. We all hugged her and her mom spoke soothing words into her ear whilst I tried to not have my hand utterly crushed by how much Kass was squeezing it.

Mrs. Adler: Do you want to talk about it by ourselves?

Kass nodded her head. I didn't try to butt in. If she wasnt comfortable with me near, it was fine.

Ember: Papa?

She tugged at my limp arm.

Me: Yes sweety?

Luna: Will mama be OK?

Me: I hope so kids. I hope so.

They came back after a while and Kass had tear tracks down her face. The three of us ran up to her and hugged her tightly.

Me: Are you ok Kass?

She only nodded her head, giving a weak, "yeah," as her response. I frowned and furrowed my eyebrows but let her go. We went back to the table and she decided that she would sit in my lap and hold onto me.

???: And who are these three?

I turned around to see a man in his late 30's at the least. He was glaring at me and my kids, which was ticking me off.

Me: And who might you be? No one has mentioned a man being a part of this house hold.

Kass and her mom looked at me in terror, something was definitely wrong because of this guy. His left hand twitched it what seemed to be anger.

???: You've got some nerve kid.

Me: Thanks, its lets me move and do all sorts of stuff.

He was getting passed and Mrs. Adler was starting to get scared.

Mrs. Adler: N-Now Arnold. H-How about s-some dinner?

A/N: If you're name is Arnold you can change the name. And this is not to stereotype the name, i just chose it.

He walked over to an empty seat and roughly yanked it out. He started stuffing his face with what was left of the chalupas.

Me: Well, the names Ronin.

Arnold: Yeah, yeah, whatever brat.

The nerve on my front temple seemed to be throbbing from anger, as if a cartoon. I felt Kass teembling within my grasp.

Arnold: Whatcha here for?

Me: Here to meet my girlfriend's parents. Are you the older brother?

That seemed to have offended really badly cause he slammed the table.

Arnold: Mavis, leave now.

Everyone started to leave and Kass took Ember and Luna with them. That was until he made his first wrong move.

Arnold: These two ain't going nowhe-

A thud was heard as I gave him a good hit sqaure to the jaw. He had tried to grab Luna and take her from Kass.

Me: Now you've done it bitch. Mrs. Adler, get out of here.

Mrs. Adler: But.

My hair started to turn white and my eyes narrowed, I turned around to show her that I wasn't joking and she gasped.

Me: Go. Keep them safe.

I caught a fist that was aimed straight to my chest. Would've broken a rib or two had I let it connect. He was caught off guard and I let loose both my ears and tails, holding my claws back.

Kass: Mom, lets go!

Kass led them deeper into the house whilst I dealt with this asshole. His eyes widened and he shook a little.

Arnold: You're just another one of those fre-

A strong punch to the gut and his meal would definetly be coming back up soon. He staggered back but recovered quickly.

Arnold: Why you little!

He threw quick and powerful jabs, but they weren't accurate and precise. He might as well me flailing around metal chains. Effective against a rookie, but against a pro, useless. He tried to go for cheap shots like; under the belt kicks, anything involving my tails, and stabbing my eyes with his fingers. But it was useless.

He went for a quick underhanded jab to the stomach and pulled him towards me by his elbow. I twisted it backwards and put him in an excruciatingly painful arm lock. His head bent back in pain and I quickly punched him straight in the throat and let him go. He collapsed to the ground and was coughing, clutching his neck. I stomped on his chest, and held him down with just the pressure from my foot. He quickly passed out.

Mrs. Adler: Kids wait!

She saw me standing over her husband's unconcious body and was instantly terrified.

Mrs. Adler: D-D-Did y-you k-kill him?

Me: Sadly no. But now he knows what happens when he even thinks about hurting my kids.

They fell into my arms and I said to Mrs. Adler.

Me: Might want to call the cops.

Kass: Ronin, are you ok?!

She came running in and saw me sitting with Ember and Luna wrapped in my arms.

Me: Im fine.

She started to shake and I pressured it was fear or relief. I couldn't be more wrong.

Kass: RONIN O'BRIAN! DONT YOU DARE SCARE ME LIKE THAT AGAIN!

She fell into my embrace as well, crying and mumbling stuff about how dumb I was. But I wasnt listening. I was focused on her mom's stunned face.

Mrs. Adler: Y-You're R-Ronin O'Brian?

Kass seemed to realize her mistake now and looked up at me with fearful eyes. I only gave her a sincere smile.

Me: Its fine Kass. We all make mistakes. And yes. Ronin O'Brian at your service.

And thats when she fainted.
