"Now that we are done here I will be waking up the boys" Eleanor said placing a Big bowl of miso soap on the dinner table.
Eleanor dusted off her hands and was about to go upstairs when Karlheinz suddenly grabbed her hand.
"Is something wrong?" Eleanor asked
"Eleanor how many years do you have left?" Karlheinz asked monotonously
Eleanor was surprised by the question and then her eyes grew wide because she never told Karlheinz that she was a descendant of Celeste.
"H-how did you k-know-" Eleanor was cut off when Karlheinz then said,
"Eleanor I'm the vampire king, it's not that hard to tell that your a descendant of Celeste. Your power radiates off of you but only supernatural creatures as strong as me can sense your power. Now answer the question how long do you have?"
Eleanor overcomed her shock and said, "2 years"
Karlheinz tsked and tightened his grip on her arm and then asked, "What is your wish?"
"You really did a lot of research. How much do you know about Elementals?" Eleanor asked
"I know that when you d-die-" Karlheinz said forcefully as if the word die stabbed him the heart, "that Celeste gave each of her descendants a dying wish"
Eleanor chuckled and said, "I do not know. At first I wanted my wish to be for my sons to be happy. But then I realized that being happy can't be forced it needs to happen over time. When I thought about that, I wanted my wish to be that my sons find someone to make them happy. And then I realized that I can't force someone to love my sons. To be honest I have no idea what I want my dying wish to be. I do not only have my sons to be worried about. I have met alot of people over these 28 years of my life and I might meet even more for the next 2 years of my life."
Eleanor rested her hand on Karlheinz's hand gently and finished her answer by saying, "All I know is that I will leave this Earth knowing that My sons and the people I met are happy in the end but not without facing life learning obstacles"
Karlheinz looked at Eleanor's face with loved fill eyes and smiling lightly and then frowned.
"What about me?" Karlheinz asked
Eleanor locked eyes with him and cheekily said, "Are you sure that you are going to be alive by then? I promised that I will be the one to kill you, do not forget that"
Eleanor then went upstairs to wake up the boys leaving a smiling Karlheinz.

Eleanor went upstairs into Reiji's room and knocked on his bedroom door and asked, "my little scientist are you up?"
"Yes mama" Reiji said
Eleanor went inside the room and kissed Reiji's forehead and said "Breakfast is ready can you get ready and wake up your brothers?"
"Yes Mama" Reiji said
"Thank you oh and Ayato is in my bedroom." Eleanor said before walking down the hallway and then turned left and entered onto the balcony. Eleanor stared into the morning sky and sighed as the sun arose. Eleanor then remembered about Shin and Carla wondering how they were. Maybe she can visit them tonight.

After staring into the sky for a couple minutes a hand grabbed her leg. Eleanor looked down to see Kanato.
"Good morning dear" Eleanor said running her hair through Kanato's head. Out of all the brothers she would say that Kanato was the most clingest, but what can she say. Of course he clings onto her, his mother never pays attention to him unless he sings.
"Morning Mama" Kanato said leaning into Eleanor's touch
"Are your brothers up and ready?" Eleanor asked
"Yes" Kanato answered
"Okay then let's go downstairs to the dining table and eat" Eleanor said
"Mama can you carry me?" Kanato said rubbing his eyes yawning
"Of course sweetie" Eleanor replied picking up the purple haired child and carried him back the way she came and headed downstairs.

Eleanor was walking down the stairs with Kanato in her arms when she saw Cordelia and Richter eating each others faces off. Richter the man who she absolutely despises.
"Cordelia this is improper especially when Karl is just one door away" Eleanor said hiding Kanato's face from the scene before them, "I was not even aware that Richter was here. Why did you not notify me?"
"I did not feel the need to. And mind your own business it's nothing the little brats have to not seen before" Cordelia replied smirking because Eleanor knew exactly what she meant by that sentence
Eleanor tsked and said,"Breakfast is ready go to the dining table. I suggest that you make yourself presentable before going in"

Eleanor walked into the dining room and saw all of her children, Beatrix, Karlheinz, and surprisingly Christa also. Eleanor sat Kanato four seats down from her. After she sat Kanato down she then went to her seat that was infront of Karlheinz and next to her was Ayato and Laito.
"Good morning Mama Ella" Ayato said
Eleanor smiled and said, "Good morning honey"
Cordelia and Richter then came into the room.
"Good morning Karl~" Cordelia said seductively
"Good morning Cordelia" Karlheinz said with no emotion in his voice
Cordelia scowled and sat down next to Beatrix who was next to Karlheinz
"Good morning Brother" Richter said taking a seat next to Karlheinz
"Good morning Brother" Karlheinz said, "its mean a while since we have seen eachother how were your travels?"
"They were very-" Richter stopped what he was saying when he looked at Cordelia, "Entertaining"
Eleanor made a small face of disgust and just focused on feeding Ayato a slice tamagoyaki.
"Good very good, I have some news for all of you today." Karlheinz said with excitement, "I have found some new experiments"

Eleanor glared at the man infront of her and asked, "Exactly what type of experiments?"
"I was traveling and found 4 boys and made them into my experiments" Karlheinz answered
Eleanor nearly threw her chopsticks inside his chest but refrained herself because their were children in the room.
"Why are you telling us this?" Beatrix asked
"Well I need someone to watch over them" Karlheinz said looking at Eleanor when he said that

Eleanor froze and knew who he meant.
"Eleanor I want you to watch the boys" Karlheinz said
