Hang Over. (Callie, Zavie)

"Mhm! That's it exactly Callie!" 8D would nod like a sage as he ignored the flailing of the fox shadow in his arms and gently pet it and enjoyed the softness of his fur.... Oh so soft and cute... If there was one thing that 8D had a weakness for in this world... It was cute things. HE LOVED cuteness, it was his number one on his list of prime directives.

1. Seek out and Protect Cute things

2. Make terrible puns.

3. Break the fourth wall.

4. Wait.... That should have been number 4... fak!

So needless to say the presence of this super cute and fluffeh and lovable and huggable and stuff red fox was enough to make his prime directive go haywire.

"As for who did this to you... I'm afraid I don't know Callie... If I did I'd personaly like to have a few words with them. But alas I simply do not. But don't worry Callie." Quick as a... uh... really quick blue rodent?... 8D would pull Callie into the hug and snuggle up to the little fox girl with a loving smile. "What happened in the past dosn't matter! What matters is the now! So, NOW lets get PAST all that and focus on the present, ehehe!"


"Well Zavs... I can say for sure that I'm not going to be joining the Cadets with these new powers... Frankly I'd rather not be the puppet of a puppet! Ehehe! Now that doesn't mean that the terrorists hold my allegiance ether. What just because I don't want to be a dog of the Queen I have to be a terrorist? Please, so short sighted, Ehehe. No I think we should stay away from all that bad stuff... That isn't to say we shouldn't go on little adventures of our own though... ehehehe." Grins chuckled silently to himself from the middle of his hug pile. He could tell that Zavie was not keen on joining ether side of the current turf war here in Endy... Good... He knew this kid was a good egg.

"Clown! I warn you, unhand me r-right now!" The orange fluff ball would continue to squirm and flail around to try and escape this evil robots grasp, lashing out at any opportunity he could find trying to claw at this hug machine to show them he meant business. "I-I swear when I next get the chance, I'll..." Before the fox could finish he felt the hand of the machine stroke down his spine again. Losing it, the shadow would lose all care for self pride and cry out for help. "Callie! Make him unhand me! T-this is not how someone like me should be treated!"

Giggling at the scenario that was taking place in front of her, Callie would pick up the over hugged shadow and place them back on her own lap, protecting them from 8D's grasp. "Hehe, sorry. He doesn't seem to like getting much attention from other people." She'd admit as Terra just hid himself away, not wanting to be apart of this anymore. "But you're right about the other thing! It doesn't matter what happened back then, I mean if they gave me Terra then I'm thankful for it!... Although... Do you think they were what gave me my tail and ears too?"


"Huh?" What did Zavie mean by sides? Like when you order food and you get a side of something? Or like when you at one side of a room or another? From what she could gather from what 8D said about it, she guessed the latter... Yet with groups of people instead of a room! "Wait... Aren't cadets those things that kids go to? Where you have the big group leader and all the kids play silly games together and earn badges!... I uhm... I mean... I never followed a random kid to one of those once?" She'd add, in a totally convincing voice. "Yet I never heard anything about no Queen... Only one of those I've seen is in cards!" This conversation didn't really make much sense to her at all, but she liked feeling involved so she was adding her useless information down wherever she could! "I like the idea of us being on our own though! Why would we need anyone else when we're all buddies! Terrorists sounds like a scary thing anyway..."

"The way I look at it, the Cadets are sooooo boooooreing! They all have to be so uptight and fallow all sorts of rules and be responsible and stuff. And the Terrorists are all so preachy and do some dangerous stuff. So I think we're better off on our own." 8D crossed his arms and nodded. Both sides were dull and way to predictable for someone as cool and fun as he was. Plus... Nether could be trusted with Callie... 8D wouldn't allow it.

"Don't worry Zavie, the way I look at it, we're a lot safer if we stick together, and now that we have these powers... Super fun adventures are like... Mandatory! I'll tell you what, sense you probably can't come over tonight, how about me and Callie come over to your house and we can go on an amazing adventure!" 8D was starting to get excited at the prospect of going on magical quests!...with friends this time! Way more fun then being alone. "Plus we can like... Wear disguises to be safe from the Cadets and Terrorists! We can dress up and have fun and fight monsters and-and-and... yeah!" 8D's eyes shone with stars as he only got himself even more excited.

"Hmm... But Zavie! If we hide away all the time, then we will live in fear and boredom! Whereas if we goes out there to fight for ourselves, maybe we'll learn a thing or two about 'em? Then at least if something does end up happening we have a way to defend ourselves... Right?" She'd say unsure of herself, most of that came from Terra telling her what to say then from her own head. But still, she thought it could be quite fun to go on adventures! She was always sad when 8D got to go on them and she had to be left behind, but now she can join in!

"The cadets are boring police officers?" Callie would repeat, adding both of her friends descriptions of them together. "B-but I thought the police went around stopping bad people and the people who do crimes and all that bad stuff!" She'd pause to think about some of her experiences in the past... Heh, well a girl had to do something to survive right? But she hadn't done anything like that for years! "W-why would they want me? Or any of us...? We haven't done anything wrong!"

Callie would shake her head. "Nope! Never heard of no Queen. Never seen them keep me safe, that's what 8D does for me!... Does that mean 8D's a queen?" She paused and stared wide eyed at 8D for a moment... This was perfect! "Yeah we should all go out on our own adventures with queen 8D!" Callie would giggle teasingly. "I'm sure it'll be lots of fun, come on Zavieee! You know you don't want to miss out on all the fun!"

"Ehehehe, Zavie, Listen." The voice would not come from 8D's mouth, instead it would only come out Zavie's line, there were perks of being attached to your phone, ehehe."I know I tell a lot of jokes, but this is one of the few times I've ever been serious. These powers you have, are a gift. Gifts like yours should not be hidden, they should be celebrated! The Cadets and the Terrorists, they squander their gifts with petty fighting and rules. You're life should not be spent in fear, in hiding... I've seen places far far from here where people like us are free to be whoever they want. Where you don't have to hide your gifts or be afraid." 8D's voice would be calm and collected as he said his piece to the scared neko child. He knew Zavie was scared. but fear was only holding the child back... "Zavie, you don't have to be afraid or alone anymore, we're all in this together! If we stick together we can protect each other, and one day, maybe we'll be able to fix the things so you and Callie don't have to hide anymore! But for that to happen I need your help... Please help me," Zavie could not see it through the line, but 8D's thin smile grew large and wide, almost reaching ear to ear.

"The Cadets and queen will think you're bad because you have these new powers, they think that anyone with powers that isn't them is instantly bad... They're a bunch of jerk faces!" 8D stuck out his tongue and blew a raspberry at the thought. "And furthermore I-er... Wait.... Queen? I-I'm not a girl! O-Only girls can be queens, if anything I'm a king! T-Tell her Zavie, I can be king and protect you guys!"

"..." The girl was speechless, she didn't fully understand the whole threat of what they were planning, but still the reaction that Zavie gave from it all had surprised her. Well, the only demons she could remember was the ones from last night. Yet they didn't really seem all that threatening, did they...? If there were more like that out there she was sure they'd be able to handle themselves. Yet what if he was right and there were massive dange--.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't you worry about a thing Cals. Trust me, from how he seems to act around you and how much I care about you. Me and 8D will keep you safe no matter what happens out there, it'll still be a fun adventure okay? Why worry about what could go wrong when we can leave that to the clown whilst we just enjoy the fun side of it, ey?" Terra would say within her mind, he wasn't the best at giving advice, but he merely wanted to ensure Callie didn't end up worrying about anything. This was important to him, he had to get stronger before he could give Callie what she truly wanted.

Callie would nod in response. "Yeah, you're right! I'm sure whatever happens it'll be fun if we're all together. That's what friends are for, to make any situation into a good one!" The girl would still be confused on how to respond to what Zavie said however, it seemed her usual enthusiastic self wasn't really working with how he was taking the whole topic... Maybe 8D would be able to calm him down, besides sh-grumble-e was kinda hungry... "Hmm... Queen 8D c-can we order food?"

"Alright! Then Team Neko is a go go! Eheheh, we'll meet up at the bar after dusk. I have a plan on where we can go to get stronger so we can start our campaign of equality and love and jokes and fun for all! And don't worry Zavie, when we finish up for the night we can have J and Kay make us milk shakes and play more Callie Cards. Ehehehe, sounds like fun right?" 8D snickered slightly as Zavie said his good bye. In all honesty he was a little surprised he had been able to get through to the child... In a way Zavie was a lot like Callie before she met J. Scared, skittish, and even though he has his parents... alone. That's how 8D saw it at least. He felt for the kid, he really did! And so with the joy in his heart bursting at the seams, 8D made a pledge to help this boy conquer his fear and become the nest Cat he could be! "Okay Zavie! We love you bye bye!" With his good bye said, 8D hung up his foot and turned to Callie.

"Hmmmm, ya know what Cals... First, I'm not a queen! Second... Ya know! Food sounds good right now, and ya know what food sounds the best!? Pizza! What do you say?" Grins Grinned at the Grinning Callie and practically drooled at the thought.

"That sounds like a great plan!" The girl would respond with a joyous smile, she really had no idea what they were going to be getting themselves into that night, but as long as she got to do it with friends she was sure it'd be lots and lots of fun! "Cyah later Zavie! Baiii~!" Callie was unsure where his change of heart on the subject came from as she hadn't heard anything 8D had told him, yet to her she just presumed he was thinking about it during that silence from before and decided to change him mind on his own. That was good! She would be sure to help the boy conquer his fears so he can just enjoy himself without having to hide all day! It'll be a blast! Although... The young vixen would turn to 8D after Zavie hung up with a confused expression. "Whats a Neko?"

"Aww, are you sure? Would you prefer to be a princess?" She'd reply in a teasing tone before hearing his suggestion of food. "Ohh! Yes! Yes, yes yes! Do that thing, get the thing, order the stuff! H-how does getting food work again? 8D do it!" She'd say excitedly, honestly it was probably a little too early for that kinda food. On the other hand, its never a bad time for pizza!
