Beast by morning, Beauty at Night

Chapter 5

Lillie was walking to ash and her's meeting spot, until a pair of arms covered her mouth and dragged her away from the path she was using. Snowy tried to use powder snow but was knocked out.

'I wonder where Lillie is...' Ash thought his train of thought was broken when he saw someone he hasn't seen since he was 12 "Brother!?" Ash gasped. "Hey squirt," Ethan greeted his brother Ash and hugged him "I was told by Alice that you have a bit of a toxic girl." Ethan gave Ssh worried eyes "Lillie's not like that!" Ash replied "She's nice and caring. She just can't help hurting me" Ash added.

 "Squirt, I better get a good explanation!" Ethan crossed his arms.

 "Lillie has this curse that was passed down from a dead grandma in her father's side it the effect starts at the age of 13 it will only last for a few years." Ash explained to him Ethan sighed and patted Ash's head "It better only be temporary. If not me and Alice is going to force you out of the relationship, got it?" Ethan said ash nodded.

Lillie was scared since she was dragged out by Alice and Rex! She was being held by the shoulders by Rex while Alice was in some sort of phone call but she was silent snowy was fine but she was just being watched by Alice and Rex. Alice walked up to her and hugged her "Sorry for being mean to you..." Alice apologized. "Eh?" Lillie looked at her confused when Alice broke from the hug Rex patted her on the shoulder and apologized as well they started talking about Ash and many more things.

(While Snowy is sitting on Lillie's lap, confused!)

"Where are you talking me Ethan?" Ash asked "Just wait will ya" Ethan said ash pouted. "Jerk..." Ash thought they arrived at the battle field where Lillie, Rex and Alice were there. "What's happening?!" Ash asked confused.

"Well we got Ethan over here to talk to you while we brought Lillie here." Rex explained to him.

 "You held Lillie hostage!? You both could go to jail for that!" Ash told them! (True!)

 "But don't worry we didn't do anything to her." Alice pinched his cheek.

 "Don't worry Ash, I'm fine, really!" Lillie reassured him Ash just sighed out of relief.

They decided to go to Ethan's apartment since Ethan was hired to be the leading professor in the Aether Foundation so he's staying there with his family members. When they arrived inside of the apartment Alice kept telling Lillie funny stories about Ash's childhood.

Everyone was having a great time until Lillie noticed that it was getting late she needed to get home, Ethan offered her to stay here since it's much more safer Lillie agreed to it she also texted her mom that she's staying with Ash. "I have 1 guest room since there's 5 of us one of us has to sleep in the couch" Ethan explained "How about we take the guest room Rex?" Alice asked rex which Rex nodded with excitement "How about you and Lillie sleep together" Ash suggested which Alice agreed to "Me and squirt here is going to sleep in the master bedroom" Ethan said "While Rex sleeps on the couch" both ash and Ethan said in unison. "Guess Rex likes Alice" Lillie thought "But it's going to be hard since Alice is being watched by ash and Ethan" Lillie followed Alice.

When everyone was asleep Ash and Ethan woke up and started to discuss Rex's love for their dearest sister. "How about we chop him to pieces here dig a 6ft hole and throw his remains there!" Ethan planned looking at the wall which was covered in papers. "Squirt?" Ethan looked behind him there was Ash sleeping Ethan simply sighed and put the blanket on him. "Alice... Ash your bug brother is here so don't you worry about anything" Ethan thought before sleeping.

(Me to the whole kidnapping thing: HEY! IT COULD HAVE BE WORSE! They could've very well used Lillie for target practice!)
