"HEY!" He yelled. "You can call me Yoro for short! Or Toshi. It's nice to meet you Mary."

"It's nice to meet you too Toshi." I said. He was a pretty cute kid, and he had a huge smile.

"I'm Peter's favorite." Toshi said, making a face up at him.

"I don't have favorites." Peter said back. Toshi was about half his height.

He looked up at Peter and gave him a hard punch in the gut. "THE HELL?" He yelled. Toshi started laughing.

"It's your own fault, you know I'm your favorite!" He smiled.

"Hey! Are we going to introduce Mary to the boys or not?" Aris called to us from behind.

"Yeah, we are. Sorry, there's been a lot of delay." Peter said.

"No you're fine." I smiled. It had been quite some time, and I was very excited to meet everyone.

We started walking down the hall again. At the end if it, you could see a bright light and hear people talking. I looked up at Peter. He had a huge grin on his face, but I could only see him for a split second before he went dashing down the hall calling out "IM HOME!" Over and over again. I had never seen Peter so excited.

Aris started laughing hysterically at Peter's voice cracks as he yelled. He started chasing after him, yelling "I'M COMIN' BUDDY!" as he picked up Toshi by the waist and ran down the hall. Danny started to follow, chasing after the boys but right as he passed me he came skidding to a stop. He stumbled a bit and tripped over his own feet, landing on his back.

I scurried over to help him up. I reached out a hand as he looked up at me. We starred into each other's eyes for a moment before I pulled him up from the ground. He had the wind knocked out of him, but he was still wheezing as if he were cracking up. I smiled and started to laugh with him as he cought his breath. He looked back up at me with a smile on his face, before he softly said "The boys are going to love you here."

Then he grabbed my hand, and we ran.
