Escape to Brian Quinn's

Brian heard Abbey let out an angry little cry from her room. "Not one ounce of patience does that girl have," He laughed, going upstairs. He made quick work of changing her and picking her up. He brought her downstairs.

"She doesnt get her impatience from you, does she?" Brian asked Khaat as he carried her, walking the floor with her, She seemed to silence by being walked.

"No, she just apparently gets bored easily and doesn't like being alone," Khaat said.

"Well, fi that's the case, she does get that from you," Robert laughed.

"Me?" Khaat frowned, "I was thinking she got at least the bit about not liking to be bored from her father."

"Well, it's possible, but it could very well come from you too," Robert said.

"Daddy, Sophia wants to be a healer, and I've offered her a position at St. Mungos."

"Ah, well done then. We could use the help, and we have a lot we could teach her," Robert said. He conjured an application and floated it over to Sophia. "When you get bored, fill that out please."

"What's it looking like out there, Steven?" Khaat asked. "No more trouble, I trust?"

steven looked at Robert "HUH, Ow no just lost in my thoughts I guess " he said and smiled as he turned back to look out the window "Cara's running off her luch out side she seems happy " he said and chuckled as she ran full tilt past him.

"I feel like I am happy Steven" she said running up ti sit in front of him pantng " I am happy , fed well and protecting my pack " she said rubbing her head on his hand "thanks to you and kate " she said and looked at Sophia "that sophia girl is like you , he said you were cool " she said steve smiled " so is she " he said and smileld back at sophia.

Sophia seen Cara came back and smiled at her. "Hey Cara, have a nice run?"Sophia asked her as she looked at Steven and smiled. "How did you get Cara if I may ask?"Sophia asked him softly as she looked Cara and seen she was panting. "Would you like some water Cara? it might help with your panting."said Sophia softly. Sophia looked at Khaat and Brian. "Yes Abbey ok?"Sophia asked them softly wanting to help if she was crying. Sophia looked at her mother. "Have you talked to daddy? he's usually isn't that bad at replying, I hope he's ok." said Sophia. "I'm sure he's ok Sophia sweetie, he's a very smart and brave man."said Emmanuelle softly.

Steven smiled "well she actually found me " he said rubbing her head as he smied at her . "yep , I was hunting with my then mate Chase when sothing snaped around my hind leg , I tryed to pull away but it just agve me more pain, Chase managed to free me but i knew i needed help I also kne a human den was not far away so with his help i managed to make it , steven found me bearly awake on his grass , he took me to Kate it was there i found out they could under stand me it was then me and steven , kinda connected" she sat to face sophia" I'd like that water please sophia, Im kinda thirsty " she looked at her with her head tipped.

Steven smiled "its true what she said , thought she is a little too curiose some times" he chuckled Cara looked at him "Since when?" she asked and he smiled rubbing behind her ear "oww right there is good" she said chucklling feeling his fingers scratch an itch she could not get.

Sophia nodded. "Ok, I'll be right back with your water Cara."said Sophia softly as he walked back into the house and grabbed her water dish and filled it with cold water. Walking carefully and slowly back outside she smiled at Cara. "Here you go Cara girl, nice cold water."said Sophia softly setting it in front of her and took her place beside her mother once again. "You know Cara, my animagus is a solid white wolf with brownn eyes."said Sophia softly. "Although I really don't why it's a wolf, it's probably because wolfs are brave and strong like you are."said Sophia smiling.

"It's good to see you on your feet again, Sophia," Khaat said. "You definately are getting better. Another day or so and you should be back at full strength again. And then, oh darn, you'll have to go back to school again. But I know you'll be looking forward to graduation, so maybe that will be some extra incentive to go back and finish. Did you know Abbey is an animagus too? Yep. When she was born, the minute Rob held her, she turned into a labrador puppy due to some accidental baby magic. Poor Rob fainted flat on the floor. I've seen a lot of new fathers do that, but I didn't expect Rob would be one of them."

"Yeah it is, but to bad your not."said Sophia as she looked at Khaat frowning. "Yeah maybe, and as much as I love Hogwarts I don't want to go back, I like it here you all became family to me."said Sophia sighing. "Yeah I am, and no I didn't know she was wow that's amazing!"said Sophia shocked. "I wish I was like that, well... at lease you know that Abbey going to be one powerful witch she she's older."said Sophia smiling. "Uh... I never seen men faint at that, I seen them faint during the birth and stuff."said Sophia laughing her tinkling bell laugh "But perhaps he was just shocked by it that's all."said Sophia shrugging her shoulders not knowing.

Steven walked in in his suit and clean aperance to hear her laugh " good to hear laughter again " he said as he let Cara run past him , he smiled to them both as he walked over to them "we're not as strong as we like you woman to think some are rwether sesative , my father couldn't stand the sight of his own blood anybody else was fine but his , nope faint dead away he would" he said grinning as he moved around them to pour a drink of cold water for Cara and himself before sitting down.

"Hm. He'd have never made an auror, then. Battle scars sort of come with that territory," Brian said. "He might have made a healer, but not an auror. "

"I don't know if he'd have made that, " Khaat said, "Being a healer sometimes means that you have to be willing to get hurt or sick yourself if it would help someone else. It isn't risk free either. Especially if someone is under a curse or a dark spell. I don't mean to frighten you, Sophia. The more advanced healers usually get called into those sorts of situations so that they don't risk the younger ones. I'm sure you mother has had experience at a couple of those."

Sophia looked at Steven and laughed her tinkling bell laugh. "Wow really, I thought guys were used to blood, guts and all that!"said Sophia laughing. "Oh your not frightening me Brain, I already know that for my mother comes home with scars on all the time."said Sophia softly. Sophia looked at her mother as she nodded saying that she as many times. "I'm not afraid of being hurt while saying others, I get hurt all the time when I save my friends from things."said Sophia softly. "I have so many scars from battles and duels I can't even count them."said Sophia honestly.
