Chapter 5: Meeting The Family

One day, the three kids were in a tree chatting (per usual) when Tubbo said "You should come meet our family, Nessa! I think you'd really like them." Nessa shook her head. "Sorry Tubzo, but I'm not really open to social interaction with anyone except you two." Tubbo looked a little disappointed, but he said "Okay. I guess I get that."

 Nessa, sensing that Tubbo was upset, tried to cheer him up a little. "Who's even in your family, anyway?" At this, Tubbo brightened up. "Well, there's our dad, Phil, who we call Dadza. Then there's us and our two brothers." 

At this point, Tommy interrupted. "Our oldest brother is Techno. He's part piglin, though no one quite knows how. We also have another brother, Wilbur, or Will. He's not really that interesting. [If you say so, Tommy...] And then I'm the youngest!" Nessa gave Tubbo a questioning look, and he said "Oh, I'm a part of the family, but I'm not related to them. Dadza found me in a box by the side of the road when I was little." 

Ah, that makes sense." said Nessa. "One more question: do you guys have another parent, or is it just Dadza?" The two boys looked at each other. "Touchy subject." Tommy said, at the same time Tubbo said "She was a Samsung Smart Fridge." This caused Nessa to laugh a little bit. "I-what?" she said. Tommy nodded, which caused her to laugh more. "Well, your family definitely sounds interesting, that's for sure."

{TIME SKIP BROUGHT TO YOU BY TOMMY'S FLOOFY HAIR}

For the next week, Tubbo kept asking Nessa if she wanted to meet their family, and eventually she gave in. As the three walked out of the woods, Nessa hissed quietly. "I'm not used to having no cover above me." she said, looking up at the sky. 

They kept walking until a house came into view. Nessa's tail started twitching nervously, and it was taking all her willpower to remain relatively calm. The three of them reached the house and went around to the back yard. There Nessa saw three people. 

The first was a boy with pink hair who looked about fifteen. He was swordfighting with an imaginary opponent, and he was really good at it. The second was another boy, who Nessa thought was probably twelve. He wore a yellow sweater and a red beanie, and he was sitting on a lawn chair in the corner of the yard strumming a guitar. And the third person was a man with blond hair. Nessa couldn't tell how old he was, but that wasn't what she was focused on. This person had a bird's wings! 

Huh, Nessa thought. Another hybrid like me. Tommy ran up to the man. "Dadza! This is our friend Nessa! We found her in the woods!" Nessa laughed quietly at Tommy's description of how they met. The man looked up from the book he was reading, seeming confused until he spotted Nessa standing next to Tubbo. Then he smiled. "So that's why you two keep sneaking off to the woods! Well, hi Nessa. I'm Philza, and these are Wilbur and Techno." he said, gesturing to the two older boys. 

Nessa waved awkwardly. "Hi." she said quietly. This was the most people she had ever been around. The boy in the yellow sweatshirt waved back. "Hi! I'm Wilbur." The other boy, who must be Techno, didn't look over, but he nodded as he continued to swordfight the air. Nessa stayed to chat with Tommy and Tubbo for a while, but soon it started to get dark. 

"I should head back home." Nessa said, standing up. "It was nice to meet you guys!" She walked back along the path to the woods. She had a feeling she would be walking this path a lot in the days to come.

Yoooooooooo, sorry for not updating yesterday. My school was taking the standardized tests, and that kind of occupied me. But here's a long chapter to make up for it!
