"Ok!" Haru said like it was one of those 'fun' jobs that his parents used to give him. He started running, but ended up far ahead of them. Haru frowned and forced himself to slow down and wait for these two, but nothing could quite kill his happiness. After all, he'd been homeless for...how long had it been now? He'd completely lost track...though he knew he had left that prison in late May.
"Er...what's the date today?" he asked them once they had caught up.
((Heh, mine arn't great either.))

Haven looked at Alice. "So, how'd you come across all this?"He asled her when the two were walking.
Alice shrugged. "I was at the creek. Then Rory showed up, soon after cam along Haru running from the cops. Then the 'hawk' came."She said.
Haven didn't say much else, but nodded. "Got it." He heard Haru, and turned to him. "It's September 5th."He said.

"Whoa..." Haru murmured. That's a little over four months! Man, I've turned into a street rat. And he decided to never share that fact with these two. "Er...anyways...So where's your house again?"
((NOOOOoooooOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I gots the block!))

Haven kept walking. "Not too far away."He said. No, their house was not too far away. Haru may have walked past here before and even past it, he just may not have known the two siblings lived there at the time.
After a few more minutes of walking, the trio eventually came to where there were some gates leading to one of those large, fancy estates(Let's just say three story mansion here). "Here we are."Alice said smiling.
(It's..contagious..><)

Haru's eyes seemed to pop out of their sockets. "Whoa...That place it huge! Look at all that stuff! I thought my aunt's place was big but..." he trailed off and his eyes narrowed suddenly. "Wait a second, I don't have to 'pretend I don't exist' like I did at that other place, do I?" he asked somewhat accusingly while folding his arms high on his chest. He wasn't going to stick around for another prison cell like that!

Alice shook her head. "Oh no! Please don't feel like that!"She said to Haru, not wanting him to feel unwanted or bad about staying there. "Really, we wouldn't have offered if you would have to do that."She said to him, her eyes showing they were sincere.
Haven nodded. "Yeah. And if anyone gives you any trouble there, just tell us and we'll take care of it."Haven went ahead and told him.

Haru immediatly relaxed, his bright grin returning. "Oh, ok! That's fine!" he said as he ran after Haven. "Wow, sweet car," he said, gesturing to the one in the driveway. He couldn't wait to see what this place looked like inside.

Alice smiled. She then opened the door walking into the large hallway. It was empty now, since it was getting late. Both siblings were a bit used to this though. Sometimes in the day housekeepers came by to clean of course since they were payed by the siblings' parents.
Haven looked at the two. "I'll see you guys in a bit, but I'm just going to go ahead and wash off my arm."He said before walking off.
Alice nodded. "Alright."She said as she watched her brother leave.

Haru could be found leaning over a sidetable with an expensive vace and a glass figurine on it. He stood up slowly and suddenly reared as he met the wide, staring eyes of an old lady in a portrait above him. The hallway was dark and it was still raining outside. Haru was tracking in mud, though he didn't notice. Mud was just a part of his life and it didn't occur to him that he might be ruining the carpet or anything.
Haru had that same feeling he got in a library. Even his breath seemed to echo in here and the place was so clean it had a rather unlived in feel. The mud was a welcome change to him. Now all this place needed was some light. Haru flipped on a couple of switches and suddenly a white light flooded the room. It wasn't a that homely yellow light that most lightbulbs gave off, but it worked. "Much better," he said with a grin as he looked around.

Alice saw Haru tracking in mud, but that was alright. It could be cleaned up, and she would do it herself if she had to. She guessed maybe Haru had never been in a place like this with how he reacted. "So, why don't we go ahead and find you a room?"She suggested.
Haven had gone to one of the restrooms and was washing it cut. He had taken off the cloth shirt, placing his arm under the sink. The dried blood was a bit crusty, but was washing off turnin the water a pale red color. It stung a bit as Haven tried to wash out the dirt that had gotten into the cut, so it wouldn't be infected. 'Man..that glass bottle really hit hard on my left wing.'He thought, remebering earlier. He then thought of Rory. 'When I said I was hit with a bottle..maybe I shouldn't have...I wonder if he knows anything...'

"Ok!" Haru said, jumping as he spun around in the same motion. He had been glancing around some of the doors at the rooms and hallways beyond and thought this whole place was like a giant maze. How'd these people ever find their way around here? "What do you do with all the extra space?" he asked, remembering how he and his 5 siblings had shared two rooms between them. He began following Alice, thoughts of Haven trailing out of his mind for the time being. Really, Haru had an attention span of about five seconds.

"Alright, just follow me."She said, walking up the stair case. She shrugged her shoulders. "Nothing really, kind of gets this empty feeling at times. We have house keepers come here, but Haven and I are the only ones who really live here."She said as they continued walking and eventually came to another hallway. Alice spotted a door she knew was a guest room and opened it. "You can stay here."She said. The room was big yet simple. It had a king-sized bed, a large wooden dresser, windows, and a closet(Feel free to imagine the rest ^^). "Haven and I are right next door."She said to Haru.

Haru was staring open-mouthed at the room. It wasn't as finely decorated as the rest of the house, since it was only a guest room, but this thing was huge! And look at that bed! How much could a person really roll around in their sleep that they'd need a bed that big?!
"Awsome!" Haru shouted triumphantly at last. He had the sense to at least take off his muddy shoes before leaping into another huge bean-bag chair in the corner. "Man, this is so cool...and I don't have to share it either." He leaned over on the bean bag towards the dresser and began opening the drawers, most of which were empty, but oh well.

Alice laughed seeing Haru's expression. It was funny seeing how he had reacted to it. "I'm glad you like it a lot."She said to Haru. She walked into the room and out of the hallway.
By now, Haven had managed to clean and bandage the wound best he could. 'It should heal soon I hope, I just won't be able to fly if I shift. But I guess in a way that's a good thing...'He thought to himself. He then started walking in the direction Alice and Haru had gone earlier.

Haru was leaning back with his hands behind his head, his eyes closed as he sighed contentedly. It seemed as though a world of troubles slowly emptied from his mind and he was truely relaxed for the first time in...oh gosh, how long had that been? About 2 years? Haru was glad to feel like just himself.
Cracking an eyelid open, he said, "Thanks, Alice." His voice wasn't as hyper and spasmatic as it had been before, it truely was grateful. "It's nice."
