Victoria's POV
I headed to my husband's office in our home. Once I reached the door I  knocked. "Who is it?" "Honey it's me." I heard some shuffling then footsteps, the door opened to reveal my husband, Corruption. "Is something wrong?" I shake my head no, then say "I want to talk about our grandchildren." Corruption visibly flinched at the thought. "What if I don't want to talk about the half human children of Gold." (Corruption calls GG Gold instead because he didn't find GG at all formal) "honey... I know you don't want to talk about it but you really need to kno-" "What if I don't want to know about the half breeds?" I give my husband a harsh glare that tells him to shut up. He shuts up. "If you would just listen you would have learned by now that all of our grandchildren are fully skeleton, the only one showing any signs of human anything is Geno; his power trait is Determination." Corruption stares with his mouth open. "Honey close your mouth or you'll let flies in." Corruption closes his mouth and says "So our grandchildren are all skeletons?" I nod my head yes and take out my phone to show him a picture. His mouth drops again when he sees the picture, then he says "The one in the middle looks like Gold." I nod again. "They just want to meet their grandfather honey, won't you come with me to see them this weekend?" Corruption looks away from me with a look of confusion, sadness, and uncertainty all at once plastered on his face. Then he mutters "I don't think I can tonight honey." I nod and say "that's okay honey I just want you to meet them as soon as possible." I then turn and leave the room.

Corruption's POV
I watch as Victoria leaves the room and me alone to a uncomfortable silence. I start thinking about the boys I saw in the picture, two of the boys look like my lovely wife while the other one looks like me and Gold. I then start thinking about Cq and my grandsons and particular thoughts come to mind 'Cq isn't fit to raise skeletons let alone my grandson skeletons!' I keep thinking about this but hear a car turn on, so I look out the window to see my wife going to a meeting with our grandchildren. I turn away from the car and continue thinking about how Cq is unfit to raise my grandsons. I start thinking of a plan of how to take the children from her legally. After some thinking I have a plan, but I can't influence anything until December, which is next month. (In the story)

After Victoria keeps pushing me to go with her to meet our gransons I finally give in and agree. My plan is still in the works so for now I can get to know my grandchildren before I start raising them myself because I think Cq is unfit to raise them.
We arrive outside the house to see two skeletons sitting underneath a tree in the front yard, we can't see them very well. Me and Victoria walk over to them and listen to their conversation. "Ruru what do you think I should give Dream and Nightmare for their birthday?" "I don't know Kiki." "Aw your no help." "I try." "Ruru!" We keep listening to playful argument for about another minute before we found the tree to see the two skeletons. One is black, red and yellow boned with blue messy streaks on his face, and the other has pure white bones with a Ink splotch on his cheek and colorful eyes. I freeze. I look at these two and my plan comes to mind, 'I am going to take my grandchildren to be raised properly. Not like Gold was.' As I look at the two talking I suddenly remember one of the only times I made my son happy.

It was the first day of kindergarten for my son Gold as I dropped him off I noticed a skeleton that looked like he had pencil all over him, I thought nothing of it and left Gold at his new school. Later that very day when Gold got back from school he started telling me about his new friend named Sketch he met that day. Gold proceeded to ask me if Sketch could come over to play since he did not have a home to go to. For what I think was the only time I did this, I said yes. Gold was astatic that I had said yes to him. I believe that was that was the one time I made him smile.
