"The prodigal sons finally decided to return home", Ryan's voice was the first thing that greeted them s they walked into the house.
"Hey keep it down, not everyone loves noise like you", Blake said from the stairs he was seated on.
"Hey Ethan you are back", Diana smile from the couch .
"Diana", Ethan paused for a bit and he moved towards her, it's a relief that you are ok, Ethan wrapped his arms around her in a hug which dazed her for a bit then she wrapped her arms around him.
"Hehe the boy's finally calm down", Ryan smirked.
As he pulled away from the hug he could see Flaming descending the stairs, she has probably been in Ethan's room before, he face was fixed elsewhere not even looking at Ethan.
"Come on my stubborn girl, don't be like that you know we always fight but you are still my stubborn girl", he walked towards Flaming who didn't even look at him at first but later ran towards his after his statement.
"That's my stubborn girl", he kissed her forehead.
"Hmph don't call me that if you still want me to play with you", Flaming grumbled .
"Alright master", he replied with a smile.
"Dude where have you guys been, have you gone on all the adventures without us" , Blake joked.
"No, this moment isn't about us , it's about the new ally we may just be getting", as Ethan said this the door to Diana's room creaked open and all eyes moved to it.
"Layla!!", Ryan shouted as he runs towards her and he pulled her in for a huge.
Layla was dazed at first, Ryan, she mumbled and she wrapped her arms around his back.
"I miss you", Ryan said.
"I miss you too", she smiled and they both kissed.
"Idiot calm down we are still here", Blake shouted.
Ryan reluctantly pulled away glaring at Blake angrily.
"What do you want me to lie we are not here, impossible", Blake smirked.
They all laughed while Layla's gaze moved to her feets nervously.
"Don't mind them, since I didn't really introduce them to you last time you may not know their name so let me introduce them to you", Ryan smiled.
"Okay" , she nodded shyly and he pulled her gently to a couch.
The goat that spoke before, Ryan pointed at Blake, his name is Blake.
Blake rolls his eyes at Ryan and he waved at Layla.
Not paying Blake any attention he continues his introduction, "that's Bassam and he's also a werewolf" .
Hey , Bassam said in a low voice and Layla nodded.
"That's Diana, you stayed in her room when you were unconscious" ,
"Hi it's nice to know you and also thanks for the accomodations", Layla smiled.
It's also nice knowing you, don't bother about the accomodations it's something I should do, Diana smile .
"There's also Flaming the stubborn girl, Ryan pointed at the sleeping", Flaming who was fast asleep on Ethan's lap.
"There's also Ethan, you know him right ? , he was the one who helped you, remember" , Ryan smiled.
Of course I remember, why would I forget my benefactor , Ethan I'm grateful for....
Knock Knock Knock.....
the knocking on the door quickly interrupted the conversation.
"I'd go get it", Bassam walked to the door.
"Oh you guys are back", Sam said in surprise.
"We came back not long ago", Bassam replied as they walked into the house .
"Hey Sam ", Ethan walked towards him and they shook hands.
"Are you coming from home, I called your phone number but you didn't answer", Ethan said.
"I didn't go home , I lodged somewhere around and I told you yesterday that I left my phone at home" , Sam explained .
"Oh I see, why is Jack not here ?", Bassam asked.
"I don't know where he is cause I haven't seen him since yesterday", Sam replied.
"You didn't try calling him?", Ethan asked.
He can take care of himself and also my phone is not with me, Sam said.
"Ahh sorry I totally forgot", Ethan chuckled.
"No problem, so who is the new girl?", Sam whispered to Ethan as they got to the living room.
"She's Ryan girlfriend and also..."
Knock Knock Knock.....
A knock on the door interrupted the conversation.
"Let me quickly get that quickly", Ethan said as he walked back to the door.
As Ethan opened the door surprise flash through his eyes looking at the figure at the door step.
"I just came here to get Raymond can you bring him out?", Phillip said plainly.
"I see no greetings but why don't you come in" , Ethan opened the door wide and Phillip walked in silently.
As they walked into the living room Bassam was the first to notice Phillip.
"You bastard, what are you doing here", Bassam shouted and he walked towards Phillip.
Phillip stood in place without moving.
"Bassam stop!!", Diana shouted.
"What, why should I stop he is the one who kidnapped you", Bassam said.
"And he was also the one who saved me", Diana said.
'He was the one who saved you?", Ethan asked.
"Yes and he brought me back here but I don't know why he and Jack got in a fight outside the house", Diana said.
Wait Jack fought against you?, Sam asked with a frown.
"I didn't come here to be questioned or to give answers I only came here for Raymond", Phillip said calmly.
"Where is Raymond?" , Ethan asked.
"He is upstairs maybe sleeping, let me go check", Blake walked towards the stairs, before he could climb he saw a figure slowly walking down the stairs.
"Raymond you are awake", Blake said.
"I just woke up not long ago" , Raymond scrubs his eyes lazily, his gaze moved downstairs and his eyes widened, uncle Phillip.
He ran down the stairs crashing into Phillip with a tight hug.
"Hey do you still want to go with me I'm leaving town today?", Phillip asked Raymond.
Raymond turned to look at everyone in the living room not knowing how to voice his decision.
"Raymond what ever you choose is your own decision no one would blame you", Bassam said and the others nodded.
"I will go with you", Raymond replied.
"Good", he pulled Raymond in his arms and whoosh he moved out of the house.
Everyone blinked for sometime.
Ryan said"Just like that".
"Just like that", Bassam replied.
"I'm sorry for all the pain Billy caused you guys, it was all my fault cause I created him", Layla said slowly.
"You don't have to blame yourself for that, all those happened in the past, the question I want to ask you is are you willing to join us?", Ethan asked.
I would like to , but on one condition , Layla said
"What is it?", Ethan asked already guessing what she wants to say.
"If you defeat me I would join you", Layla said.
Well I already guessed that but we have to wait till my stats are back to normal, Ethan said.
"I would like to wait but I feel that the right time is now", Layla smiled shyly.
"What the hell", Ethan muttered as he sees the system's notification.
