A couple of weeks have passed, Leah's chest and arms were healing nicely except her leg but besides that Aubrey and Tony have been drifting apart rather than closer.

"Hmm.. done! What do you think?"

Sera poked her head from behind Aubrey and stared at the music box she made with a picture of Tony and Aubrey in it.

"You want my honest opinion, girlfriend?"

"Only if you think it's perfect"

"It's perfect!! Also, it's dark, you were working late again!"

"Oh! Right, I'm so used to papa telling me to go to bed! I forget about the schedule" Aubrey closed the music box and sat on the counter, "Do you think he'll like it?"

"Yeah! Give it to him tomorrow!"

"Okay, let's head to bed!"

"Okay!"

In the middle of the night

Everyone heard a scream of pain and terror which woke everybody up in a panic.

"The hell was that?!"

"Kids, who was that?!"

Tony kicked open the door, "Who screamed?!"

"We don't know!"

Aubrey fell out of her room and ran downstairs, she stared out the window, "Strange... I thought I saw someone"

"But who screamed?"

"It was probably an animal kids or some dumb hunter got caught in his own trap again" Haley rubbed her eyes.

Until they heard that same scream again, only this time, it was closer.

"Okay, April! Get the f**king protection spell, Nightshade you guard the fireplace!"

"Alright, kids, get you.. why's there someone missing?"

"Damnit! Tony, get your a$$ back in this house you little vampire!!"

"I'm still in the house!"

"Then who is missing?!"

"How should we know!"

"I'll go get the scent and find them" Haley growled as she walked outside. After a few seconds she came back inside and started walking upstairs.

"I swear to god, if Raph's alive. I'm gonna cut his leg off." Haley grumbled, She walked past the girls guest room, over to the boys and pokes her head into the room and sees a mass in one of the beds.

"Get up, you little punk."

"I.. can't m.. move"

"Alright, what's wrong?" Haley sat on the bed, "Tell me or would you like one of the boys?"

"I.. legit can't move.. that was me screaming in pain"

Haley lifted the blanket, "Ah! Okay, Mus! Let's get you up"

"I already tried.. it hurts too much to even.. move"

"Aunt Haley? Is it safe to come upstairs!"

"Hold on!" Haley wrapped him up in the blanket and picked him up, "Ryan, you said you were a doctor, right?"

"Yes, why?"

"Help Remus, everyone else? GET TO BED!!"

"Why!"

"Just do it!"

"Well, who was that screaming?!"

"Yeah!"

"GET YOUR A$$ES TO BED!!" Haley snarled which caused all the kids to go back to sleep.

"So.. what happened?"

"Don't ask"

In the morning, Aubrey was shaking in fear, trying to catch Tony's attention.

"H.. hey Tony"

"Yes Aubrey?" That stung her a little, he stopped calling her Bunty when they left New York.

"I.. I made you something"

"Oh? What is it?" Tony leaned in closer to her.

"Um... W-Well today will mark the anniversary of when we first met and I wanted to give this to you!" Aubrey blushed darkly as she shoved the music box into his arms.

He opened the box and listened to the music play. Tony smiled a little as he heard the song but then he remembered his goal which caused the smile to fade.

"It's.. it's a good gift, thanks.. I need to go"

"But..." Aubrey whimpered and held onto the hem of her sweater as Tony walked away, "Of course..."

"So..?"

"He.... didn't like it..."

"What?! You worked on it all night!!"

"It's fine... I guess we really are growing apart..."

"Aubrey.."

Aubrey whimpered as Ray walked over to them.

"Nerdette, don't get too upset over him, come outside, you two need to adjust to being outside in the forest more!"

"No, Ray! Can I just stay in the barn-!"

"Nope! Outside!"

Aubrey and Sera sighed as they walked outside, they saw Leah watching Remus and Light train together.

"Can't get me, can you, lover boy!"

"Oh hush!"

"Hey dorks, can we join?"

"Sure, just don't cry when I beat you!"

"Uh! You won't beat me!"

"Guys, relax!"

"Alright, alright! Aubrey? What's wrong?"

"Yeah, what's wrong with you?"

"Just... Me and Tony aren't as close as we used to be..." Aubrey's ears went down as she started whimpering.

"Aww"

"Hmm, just train with us, you don't need to pay attention to.. stupid boys right now."

"Yeah! What should we do, Lele?"

"Hmm.. Hybrid Hunt!"

"Hybrid hunt!"

"Hybrid hunt?!" Aubrey and Sera stared at them in bewilderment.

"Wanna help us Leah? Chump, Light, you two playing?"

"Yeah!" Remus and Light looked over at Leah who nodded then felt a sharp pain in her leg.

"Ow! I'm sorry guys, I can't play.. enjoy your little hunt"

"Okay, you two have to stay hidden for at least an hour while we hunt you!"

"All three of you, hunt me and Sera?"

"Yeah, with only one rule! We all can't use our powers or mutations"

"Deal"

"And if you two can't stay hidden... you'll have to clean the chicken coop!"

"No way!!"

"It smells bad!"

"Then you better get running!"

"Alright, alright!"

Sera and Aubrey ran into the forest and that is when they realized, they had no idea on how to survive in the wild. Despite Aubrey traveling so much in her kid years.

"So, where can we hide?!"

"I don't know! We could climb a tree!"

"That's the first place they'll look.. Can we burrow?"

"In my defense, we are half turtles but our mothers probably didn't burrow!"

Then they heard a loud scream in the distance.

"T-that's gotta be Ray and Light messing with us, right?!"

"R-Remus wouldn't have let them scare us like that!"

"We need to hide! Now!"

A few moments passed as Sera and Aubrey were hiding in a tree.

"We are so cleaning the coop, they're gonna find us in like.. 3 seconds"

"Um... I'm not so sure about that, A"

"Why not?"

"Look" Sera pointed to the branch above us and shook in fear.

"What is it.." Aubrey started then looked up at the branch above them.

There was a giant creature more commonly known as Bigfoot, growling and staring at the two girls.

"Um.. hi?"

Bigfoot growled at them and started chasing them down the tree as Ray, Light, and Remus continued looking for them.

"So I assume you played this before?"

"Yeah, I used to play this with Akemi and... Back in the city!"

"How long did it take for you to find her?"

"20 minutes, she kept laughing!"

"Aww"

"Imma look ahead, these two are actually hiding well!"

Light looked over at Remus, who was wearing a handmade necklace from Nymph.

"Hey... you and Nymph are good, right?"

"Yeah! Why? Something wrong?"

"I just miss everyone... Mother, Father, Aunt Shini, Uncle Raz, Akemi... Hayden"

"Aww.. can I ask how you and Hayden got together anyway?"

"Look, all I want to know is what should I do to keep the relationship working?"

"Depends on what you two have done so far.. does he even know about your mutation?"

"Yeah, we've spent the night at each other's houses, cuddled and kissed... god, I miss that"

"Well, if everything sounds that good, I say, keep doing what you two were doing before we left and if both of you are ready, try taking another step"

"Thanks-!" They heard Aubrey scream in terror.

"Oh sh**"

Aubrey and Sera ran past the three of them, screaming their heads off.

"Come on, you two aren't even trying to hide!!"

"Bigfoot!!"

"What are you two on?! Bigfoot doesn't exist-!" Light tried to explain but a roar came behind them, Aubrey turned Light around and they were staring right at Bigfoot.

"Oh sh**!"

"Well now, we get some real training!"

Aubrey and Sera groaned as they pulled out their weapons with Light and Remus.

Back at the farmhouse

"Big bro?"

"Yeah?" Phillip turned towards Denny.

"Do you think mama's okay?"

"Um... Yeah! When we see her again, she'll be so happy"

"Aww! When can we see her again?"

"Soon, okay?"

"Okay.. what about daddy?"

"Hey Denny, do you want to feed the chickens while Phillip fixes the bathtub with Lena?" Angelina smiled.

"Mmm hmm! I like playing with the chickens!" Denny smiled back at her and ran downstairs.

Angelina kissed Phillip's cheek, "I'll keep an eye on him" She smiled and walked away.

"Okay"

Angelina walked downstairs, she grabbed Denny's coat and saw him staring out the door.

"Denny? I thought you were outside"

"Not yet aunty, but what's that?"

"What is what.... OH DEAR GOD!" Angelina shouted and grabbed onto Denny, dragging him inside.

"What's wrong?"

"Everything okay?"

Aubrey walked in, "We brought someone, no freak out!"

"What do you mean, you brought someone?"

"Yeah!"

Leah waddled down the stairs and saw the doorway full of hair.

"Why's the doorway full of hair?"

"Get in here!!" Sera pulled on his back as the others pushed him inside. Which caused everyone to scream in shock.

"It's Bigfoot!!"

"You brought Bigfoot home?!"

"Easy, Leah! It needed our help!" Aubrey lifted up Bigfoot's arm to show the open wound.

"Oh.. let me get the medical kit"

Aubrey led Bigfoot to the living room and sat him on the couch while Tony watched the two of them.

"Hmm"

"Something wrong Tony"

"No, nothing! Aubrey, how about we go on a picni-!"

"I thought you said you were too busy to do anything"

"Don't act like that."

"Oh, don't tell me how to act, Dracula."

"Okay, um.. Tony, how about we talk. I can tell there's stuff to unpack and we don't want murder."

"Fine. I'll go." Tony stormed away while Aubrey healed Bigfoot's arm.

"What the hell was that?"

"It doesn't matter" Aubrey looked up at Bigfoot and smiled warmly, "Try not to use it for a few days"

"Mm hmm, Bigfoot thank Aubrey"

"No problem!"

"Bad lady, after Bigfoot, name, The Finger"

"The Finger?" Aubrey tilted her head in confusion.

"Very bad girl, but Aubrey good girl"

"Um... Yes" Aubrey moved backwards as Bigfoot leaned closer. Instead of Bigfoot stopping, they leaned closer to her and kissed her on the cheek.

Aubrey gasped, "Oh my"

"Well"

"Looks like someone has an admirer!" The other teenagers burst into laughter.

"I don't get it?" Denny said confused, then walked outside and saw Tony. "Hewo!"

"Hello, Young Prince"

"Why are you sad?"

"I'm not"

"Don't tell a story, mama says it's bad"

"Huh?"

"Story means lie, but why are you sad?"

"I just miss my father and I'm placing it onto Aubrey"

"Aww, maybe you should talk to her! Uncle Re-Re saw you get mad and he looked mad at you!"

"I know, he's going to kill me if I don't make it up to her"

"Then, talk to her and don't be such a meanie to her!"

Tony chuckled and ruffled his hair, "I won't"

"Yay! Also.. why is it that when I ask big bro about daddy, he won't say anything?"

"Just private things, Denny"

"Aww, okay.. can you help me feed the chickens please?"

"Of course"

"Yay!! Thank you!"

"That was you screaming in the middle of the night? Why?" Leah asked Remus, concerned.

"I got bit by something" He crossed his arm and chuckled.

"You got bit by something that caused you to scream bloody murder?"

"Yes.. and..?"

"What was it?"

"Um.. some bug or something" he lied.

"Mus, no bug can paralyze you so what was it?"

".. I don't know, look, I was sleeping peacefully, a minute later, I woke up in pain from.. like a sprained ankle and the pain just got worse and I don't know why"

"Hmm, maybe we can have Coral take a look! She knows more than we think"

"Yeah, that sounds nic.. ow"

"Maybe you should sit"

"Mmm hmm.. I think it's happening again"

"Okay, let's sit down!"

"Alright" he said, sitting down just when his legs started to freeze up.

Leah helped him sit down, "You know what would help?"

"No.. what?"

"Watching Bigfoot try and win Aubrey over"

"Y.. yeah"

The next day, Aubrey was training with her powers outside when she turned around, nearly having a heart attack as Bigfoot was trying to hand her a tree full of flowers.

"Flowers! Aubrey!"

"Dah!! Yes, please put the tree down!!"

"For you!"

"Thank you but please put it down!!"

"Okay"

Bigfoot dropped it at her feet, causing Aubrey to float in fear which scared Bigfoot into thinking she was flying away.

"No!! Aubrey!!"

"It's okay! I'm okay!" Sera threw her nunchucks and wrapped them around Aubrey, dragging her back down but into Tony's arms.

".. hello Dracula."

"Hello Aubrey, look I need to talk to you-!"

"About what?"

"About us-!" Bigfoot grabbed her out of Tony's arms.

"My Aubrey!!"

"Let her go!"

"No! My Aubrey!!"

"Enough! I am fine!" Aubrey got out of their arms and ran inside.

"O'Neil, can you two tell us the baby's name already?"

"We haven't decided yet, alright!"

"At least the gender! Tell us that!"

"No! I want it to be a surprise!"

"Then hurry up and tell us a name! I thought it finally came out already!"

"Well, my belly's still swollen, so it didn't!"

"Have you tried s-!"

"Please don't!" Coral covered Casey's mouth.

"Coral!! Aunt Haley!! It's happening again!"

"Alright! Come on, C" Haley walked away, stretching as she did.

"I don't get it, I keep.. freezing up and having so much pain and I hate it"

Coral looked at him, she pulled the tips of his ears and spread his wings.

"Ow, I can still feel my ears"

"I know, you can feel other people's pain at least who you care about deeply such as Leah, Nymphadora, and You're Mother"

"I.. can?"

"Yes, for example... Haley slap Leah"

"Are you sure?"

"Just do it, Aunty"

"Alright, alright!"

Leah screamed slightly as Haley slapped her which caused Remus to scream louder.

"See"

"Yeah, I see now!"

"So, the pain must be fr.. from grandmother"

"Mom... This means she's alive!"

"Yeah.. she's alive"

"Ugh! Bigfoot, please! Let me talk to him!"

"No, Aubrey!"

"Oh geez"

Leah looked over at Aubrey as she closed the living room door on Bigfoot.

"Trouble with your boyfriend?"

"Oh shush, you aren't exactly helping"

"I know!"

"He can't keep doing this forever, right?"

Haley looked at her and started laughing, "You're just like your dad!"

"I.. really? How?"

"He had a lady Bigfoot following him everywhere! Like a love sick puppy"

"Oh"

"In a way, it helped him realized that he no longer grew romantic feelings for Mrs.O'Neil, and fell for your mother"

"He had feelings for Aunt April?"

"Yes, he had feelings for me, I wasn't interested and.. I was kinda an a$$hole about it"

"Red-Head, you stopped all over his heart and cried to me about it for weeks because I was your best friend!"

"We made up alright! Hush!"

"Yeah, I got an ear full of crying"

"Wow"

"Aubrey, can we please talk or are you still busy?" Tony walked into the living room.

"Depends, what is it."

"It's personal and why I've been so distant"

"Tony, I-!"

"Please"

"I don't know, maybe-!"

"Put me down!!" They heard Denny scream.

"Denny!" Tony flew out of the living room.

"Oh no, wait!!"

Aubrey runs after him and sees Bigfoot picking up Denny.

"Mine!"

"Put me down!!"

"Bigfoot, put him down please!"

"No! My baby!!"

"Please, I Will let you get me whatever you want"

"Put me down! I don't like heights!!"

Tony flew up and pried Denny out of Bigfoot's hands then carried him inside.

"Give me baby!!"

"No." Tony closed the door shut and set Denny down, He looked down and saw Denny holding onto him.

"Um... You can let me go now"

"Can you please take me to my brother?"

"Of course, Young Prince"

"Yay"

Throughout the week it has been a constant terror with Bigfoot around, especially for Aubrey's sake but Lena was finding it enjoyable.

"Lena, what are you doing?"

"Making a scrapbook of Bigfoot to shove underneath Aubrey's pillow"

"Ooh!"

Lena laughed a little as she walked into the kitchen, only to see Bigfoot cooking.

"Evening Bigfoot! What are you making?"

"Food! Aubrey" Bigfoot moved out of the way as Lena opened the bot and nearly threw up.

"Um.. the food has meat on it?"

"Yeah!" Bigfoot tried to open the fridge but accidentally threw it out the window. "Bigfoot need help"

"Sure, what Bigfoot... I mean, what do you want?" Lena folded her arms as they looked at her up and down.

"Makeover?"

"Well, I usually don't do this sort of thing but..." Lena thought about it, "It's better if your coming to me instead of Sera, come on"

"Nymph, what did you wanna ask me?" Phillip asked her.

"Okay, what would Remus like for dessert?"

"Um.. try brownies, also, why are you asking me?"

"Because you spend the most time with him"

"Fair" he started then smirked at her. "Did you ask him yet?"

"Ask him what?"

"You know what"

"Of course not!" Nymph turned red as a tomato and hit him with a pillow.

"Come on! You two can take the deserts, go out into the forest where nobody can hear or see either of you, late at night is better and ask him! Best case, he won't say no!"

"We're not having this conversation-!"

"Hey dorks, take a look at Bigfoot!" Lena said as she walked downstairs as Bigfoot followed after her.

"Wow"

"Oh dear god!"

"Do you like it?"

"Oh whoa, Aubrey is gonna... feel a certain way about this"

"Mmm hmm!"

"Yeah, so what are you two doing?"

"Making fun of Nymph"

"Oh? About what?"

"What else? I'm asking her if she talked to him about you know what!"

"Ooh, do it!"

"Come on, I think it's not the worst thing you can do! Plus, you gave him a promise ring at the end of Spring Fling, you may as well explain it and take things up a bit!"

"What if he says I make him uncomfortable?!"

"Why would he say that in the first place?! He loves you!"

"But still!"

"Nymph, he loves you, hell, he thought you wouldn't even talk to him because you're cool!"

"I'm not cool!"

"B**ch please, you can mimic anyone's voices" Lena said as Bigfoot copied her movements.

"So?"

"Nymph, either you talk to him about it or we tell him for you!"

"Fine, I'll do it!"

"Good!"

Aubrey was practicing floating down the stairs and she nearly panicked when she saw Bigfoot shove a pot in her face.

"Eat!"

"Oh my, d-did you make this?" Aubrey's stomach started rumbling not because she was hungry, she gagged a little and looked up at them, "Oh my potions!"

"Hmm?"

"Oh wow, I must go!" Aubrey ran into the living room, shutting the door behind her, "This is a nightmare, Bigfoot follows me around like a lovesick puppy!"

"Why does that sound so familiar!"

Aubrey looked over at Haley and Ray who were watching a horror movie.

"Your dad said the same damn thing, maybe hide out here for a bit"

"Look on the bright side, now you know how Tony feels"

"Aunty?"

"Huh?" Aubrey turned around and saw Denny staring at her, "Yes Denny?"

"Can we play a game?"

"Of course, what ki..." Aubrey saw the music box on the counter, that's when she realized Tony carved both of their names on it, "Tony..."

"What's wrong aunty?"

"Denny, have you seen Tony?"

"Mmm hmm! He's upstairs-!"

"Okay, how about we play a game first then-!"

"It's a girlfriend's job to go check on her man" Haley stared at her.

"Go get your man, we'll keep him entertained" Ray said, mimicking her mother.

"You two are evil sometimes but thank you" Aubrey said, grabbing the music box and running upstairs. "Tony?"

Tony was on the roof, right outside his bedroom window. He looked up, staring at the night sky.

"Tony, it's me.. can we talk now?"

"Of course, Aubrey," Tony moved over slightly as she sat down next to him.

".. what happened?"

"You mean about us, Aubrey it's just..."

"Did I do something wrong?"

"No! You are the best thing that has happened to me, it's just... I'm worried because when we were in the city, it was harder for my mother to find me. Now I'm scared and I don't know what she will do to you-!"

"Hey! Hey, we'll figure it out, okay? We can figure it out"

"But, you can barely control your magic, what if she-!"

"We can figure it out, Tony.. I know she scares you for a reason that you never told me and I won't ask but, all of us will help you and figure it out, okay?"

".... Thank you, Bunty" Tony smiled as they touched their foreheads.

"Your welcome Tony.. I missed this"

"So did I" Tony lifted up her head and kissed her as she kissed him back but they didn't realize that Bigfoot was watching them. Bigfoot whimpered and ran away from them.

"I thought you said the night can be so scary sometimes?"

"I've grown to like it"

"Aww, hey, what's your favorite voice to mimic?"

"It's probably the principals! He's funny to mimic"

"Oh yeah!" He snickered and kissed her cheek.

Nymph smiled then heard Bigfoot crying, "Huh?"

"What is it?"

"I hear crying"

"I hear it too"

Bigfoot cried as they ran into the woods, alerting everyone.

"Bigfoot! Wait up!!"

Aubrey floated off the roof and chased after Sera and Bigfoot.

"Come on Bigfoot! Stop!"

"Come on, let's talk!"

"Go away!!"

"Bigfoot please-!" Sera got her leg stuck in a bear trap, "No!"

"Sera!"

"Help!!"

"Let me try and open it!"

Aubrey kneeled down and tried prying it open but then got struck behind the head.

"Ow!"

"Gotcha now!"

"Help!!"

Bigfoot stopped running and turned back around, running back to the girls, Only for them to get caught in another trap.

"I have a feeling you wanna talk to me about something"

"W-Well... It's about us" Nymph turned red and twilded her fingers.

"Okay, what is it?"

"Um.. How would you feel about taking another step?"

"Oh"

"Like in our relationship" Nymphadora closed her eyes shut, waiting for rejection.

"Okay"

"H-Huh?"

"Yeah, we can take another step.. if I'm being honest, I wanted to ask you the night I slept over but I kinda lost my nerve"

"Hey, it's okay" Nymph smiled, "Let's just talk"

"Yeah, that sounds nice.. now that I think about it, you never really explained why you gave me this after we left Spring Fling early" he said, showing her the promise ring she gave him.

"Because when you go on a mission, I want you to know that no matter what... I'll be waiting for you"

"I.. aww"

"I was really scared when we left New York..."

"I think all of us were scared when we had to leave.. but what made you scared?"

"Because I didn't know if you were gonna come with us..."

".. well, I'm here now, and I don't wanna leave"

"You better not" Nymph hugged him tightly as Remus hugged back.

"I won't" he said and held her closer. "I love you" he blurted out.

Nymph blushed lightly and smiled, "I love you too"

Back with Aubrey and Sera

"Ah!! Aubrey, I had such a bad dream, I-!"

"Shush, Serafina! The Finger is trying to figure out whether to stuff us or pickle us!"

"Ooh, pickle! Pickles are good!"

"Shush!"

"Finne"

"Hmm... Ain't enough room in the cart, papa! Looks like I'm just gonna stuff them right here."

"Oh no.."

"Wait!!"!!"

"What is it"

"Um... Your papa is so ugly! he looks like one of those wrinkly dogs! With all the wrinkles!"

"A sharpe?!"

"Yeah!!"

"No he isn't!"

"Your papa... Your papa is a shrunken head!" Aubrey shouted which caused The Finger to finally have enough.

"Shut up!!"

The finger shot a bow and arrow at Aubrey which she caught with her powers and used it to cut her rope.

"Bad move, The Finger"

"Oh, is it?!"
