A peaceful Sunday for everyone.
Leo, Vanessa and Skyler are going on a picknick and Glitch and Tony are going to the forest.
Glitch is going to help Tony find some things for his potions.
Shadow is pretty much the only one left alone home without any plans, he likes being alone.
However the peace is fast enough broken for him because Skyler purposely left Dawn at home.
Dawn and Shadow just look at eachother, Dawn smiles and Shadow looks annoyed.
„Why are you looking at me like that, stupid wh*re?"
Dawns smile faints fast enough and she looks at Shadow suddenly very seriously.
„I want to play a game." she says.
„Uh.. What game...?" Shadow asks in a confused and yet depressive tone.
„Listen old man, I don't give a single goofy ass sh*t aslong as we f*cking play something"
Shadow smiles a little, hearing and seeing a child being like this and as Dawn finishes her sentence he answers gladly with „Anything? Let me show you my favorite game.. You might wanna get ready to go somewhere and then follow me."
Both get ready and as Shadow walks out of the door so does Dawn following him.
They go to the busstop and wait a few mins till a bus arrives.
They get inside and drive into the city where they get out of the bus.
All Dawn does is follow Shadow and as she sees the part of the city she smiles and says „Oh! Wait I killed here someone"
Shadow has a slight smirk on his face amazed by the news but yet still ignores what she said and keeps on walking with her as he enters a mini bar.
„There we are.. Kids like you shouldn't be here but since I'm quite famous here they'll let it slide." he says proudly but still depressing.
A bar, it looks old but stylish.
He walks into a door for Dawn to find many people gathered together to play Poker, Uno and a few other games.
She asks curiously „Why are we here? What will we play??" as Shadow responds „My favorite game. Poker."
Dawn tries to run around the place but Shadow grabs her by her wrist fast enough.
„Behave yourself." he says in a serious, really serious tone to her as he looks in Dawns eyes with a deathstare.
„I have a serious title here and a good one too and I will not let a child ruin my reputation, understood?"

Dawn said nothing, she just nodded with her head.
Shadow and Dawn went in a room and sat down at a table
„Behold... My favorite game, kid."
Multiple people sat down too.
A waiter came into the room and asked if anyone needs something but Shadow only asked for Poker cards.
„Seriously..? A boring card game? Ugh.." Dawn sighs in disappointed
„Kiddo you should give it a shot, yknow? Don't be so grumpy."
Dawn wheezes hearing Shadows words „Yeah sorry being grumpy is your job old man"
Shadow indeed chuckles, rare thing.
„You have some attitude, I like that." he looks over to her and smiles a bit.
They start playing Poker, Dawn at first was annoyed and bored but fastly enough she became curious, began to ask questions and even play a bit too.
She looks at Shadow „I thought he was boring.." she thinks to herself „But he doesn't seem as grumpy here as he is at our hideout... Shadow's not a bad person, he is just bored and has no one to really understand the way he is, does he?"
Shadow notices her looking at him
„Kid?"
Dawn flinches
„I sank in my thoughts, what do you want jerkass"
Shadow actually chuckles again and with every time he chuckles the people in the room go even quieter then they were before.
Shadow shows Dawn his cards and asks if she has an idea what he can do.
Dawn looks at the card for a moment but hesitates to say something at first.
„Raise. You can raise."
She whisperes something in his ear and he smiles again.
„Whatever you say, kid."
After short time turns out Dawn noticed that Shadow had a Royal Flush and won.
Hours past by and Shadow has to leave with Dawn.
„Kid... I can't believe I'm about to say this but you're actually a fun one"
Dawn smiles „Thanks Shadow"
At home Shadow and Dawn even hug.
The moment he does that everyone else comes in.
Skyler sees the event and gets worried
She runs to Shadow, ripping Dawn out of his arms.
„Leave her alone... Dawn are you okay??"
Dawn smiles warmly „Yes! Uncle Shadow and I get along"
„Uncle.. Shadow...?" Skyler looks over to Shadow in confusion.
Shadow looks back to Skyler and then at Dawn.
„Kid. If you ever wanna play Poker again we can. K?"
Dawn nods and hugs him once again.
Everyone is happy that Shadow gets along with a child but Glitch and Skyler get a bad feeling when they see all...
