Ships: Scarian

Okay, so, this is a oneshot for fun. This isn't meant to be anything accurate to the creators and the people in it. I just thought how could I make a oneshot book and not make one about the family called the Clockers?

Welp, let's start the oneshot.:>

I was wasn't expecting to be a parent, but here I was.  I gave them armour, food, tried my best to guid and protect them. I got revenge on their cousins, the Bad Boys. My god, did I try my best to protect them. Tried. It's Scar and Bdubs there's only so much I can do.

And I did it alone. Without Etho. I didn't need his help, but the boys still loved him, I mean he was still their dad. It's just, he wasn't a good one. 

I didn't like the idea of him coming over for a family dinner one bit, but I could tolerate it. For the kids sake... Everything was ready, Scar set the table, dinner was cooked, the last thing left was Etho. Of course. A couple minutes passed before a knock finally came to the door.

"Hello?" The familiar voice spoke from the other side of the door. Etho had finally shown up.

"Scar could you get the door please?" I ask, plating dinner as I do so.

"Sure mom!" Excitedly he rushed to the door, opening it with a big grin on his face as Etho entered. I kept quiet, beginning to dig into my food as I let the boys  talk to their dad, he was only here for them anyway.

"This is nice." Bdubs states, smiling. 

"This is very nice." Ethos replies

"This is...this is nice. This is nice!" I lied, smiling politely.

"Cleo you don't sound very happy, what's.... Isn't this wonderful?" He asks, a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"I mean to be fair, you don't seem particularly happy either." I reply not looking up at from my plate as I spoke. 

"Oh I'm happy to be here. I would be here all the time if I was allowed."

"You're allowed." I reply, finally looking up from my plate. "You can stay if you'd like Etho you could be apart of the family. You could be a Clocker." Bdubs and Scar stayed silent unsure of what to say.

"I could couldn't I..." he muttered under his breath."

"If you wanted to swear to be a Clocker, you could be a Clocker."

"You could give up on them right now." Bdubs finally spoke up, a smaller but still genuine smile on his face. It was clear he missed his dad.

Etho didn't reply as an awkward silence began to build.

"So how was your day Bdubs?" He finally asked, avoiding the question. Like always. "How was your day son?"

"Yeah, it's been wonderful. A real good day, I don't... Everybody's called me a traitor, everybody too to bottom." His smile fading as he spoke.

"Are the kids giving you a hard time?" Etho asks, as I remain silent.

"They're giving me a hard time, yes."

"Goodness... Do I have to have a word with some of them?" He follows up, giving a quick side glance towards  me

"Both of them."

"Mhmm...Okay..."

"And now-"

"And what about you Scar?" Interrupting Bdubs as he spoke. "Oh, go ahead, go ahead."

"No I can't." Replies Bdubs head lowered and disappointed. Etho just looks away from him and to Scar without a word, not even caring that his son's upset. I took a deep breath as I restrained myself from speaking.

" I've had a delightful day, Etho! I made doormats for our allies! So all of our allies are shored up with doormats for their homes. I got a whole new supply of gunpowder which is great for us for the future red wars. And! I don't know if you know Etho but it is life day. And if  you were here more often, you know, you would've gotten a life day present." Scar dissed at the end of his talk, he was taking his dad being away worse than Bdubs was. But he still enjoyed it when he was here. "Cleo and Bdubs both got their life day presents."

"Well, I hope they enjoy them. But this is nice. This is nice. I especially like how Cleo's being quiet." He states looking me dead in the eyes as he spoke.

"You know what Etho?" I reply finally at my limit. " Again, if you're gonna be an absent dad, you're welcome to be absent." I state glaring at  him. "But you know... your presence is appreciated by some."

"Mhm." He hums in reply.

"Mhm." I reply back. "And for their sake you can stay." He paused once more, not replying to my statement.

"Say, kids do you want to play catch right now?" Asking Scar and Bdubs as he avoids the question. 

"Yes!" Bdubs shouts, excited.

"Yes! We can give mom five minutes of peace and quiet." Scar replies also excited.

"Cleo may we be excused?"

"Go on, go on." I state, smiling at the fact that the kids were so happy about the idea. "Enjoy whatever it  is you're going to do." Grabbing the plates from the table as I spoke.

"I won't keep them out to late Cleo."

"Okay, that's fine."  I state putting the dishes in the to be washed another time.

"You could probably use a break you look stressed." He states walking to the door where the boy were already outside. "I mean you always look like that so it's fine."  Making a final remark as he tries to figure out how to open the door. Walking up behind him I punch his arm before pushing the button that lets him out. Making sure everything's tidy before heading outside to supervise.

They had set up on the lawn out front. Walking around the three I sat down on the grass and watched.

"Are you ready son?" Etho asks, a small bundle of TNT in his hands as he spoke. I didn't like this idea one bit. I mean sure Etho was a bad dad, but he could at least be responsible. Right?

"Are you sure about the TNT?" Asks Bdubs, seemingly having second thoughts.

"Sure, just don't drop it." Replies Etho, getting ready to throw. "Ready? Catch!"Throwing the bundle to Bdubs, who  hesitantly caught it, but still caught it.

"I did it! MomI did it!" Sounding shocked at first then a sense of pride rose in his voice.

"Proud of you son!" I shouted back, smiling.  They passed it back and forth for a bit then it was Scar's turn, he was more hesitant, almost dropping it twice. But he was still enjoying himself.

Then the two boys passed it back and forth to each other. And they seemed to be having fun.

"Hey, how about we try two? Amp it up a little?" Etho states, a smirk barely poking out from behind his mask. 

"Etho just leave it they're having fun."

"No, let's try it!" Bdubs shouts pulling out a second bundle from his dad's hand. "Ready Scar?"He shouts.

"I guess?" They throw them the first time both just barely catching it. I don't like this. Throwing the two bundles a second time, something goes wrong, the two bundles hit each other mid air.

BANG.

GoodTimesWithScar blew up.

Bdouble blew up.

My breathing was slow and deep, fuming with anger as I pull out my axe as Etho laughs hysterically.

"I suggest you leave."  He didn't listen.

"Did you see that Cleo?!" He exclaimed, still laughing.

"It's time for you to leave." I demanded, giving him a warning shot. "Leave. And don't come back."

" Look Cleo I didn't mean it." He replied backing up a bit."

"Get out of here Etho." Striking him again until he finally left. Now I had to protect them from their own dad too... Great.
