Chapter 5: The Welcomed Guests.

"Miss Eedeed, we have the survivors Miss Akineo asked us to bring home." Curb said pointing at the door behind him which he had came from.
Eedeed was in the kitchen making herself and Oppii a snack of peanut butter and jelly sandwhich. She turned around to respond to Curb, "Oh, yea, Akineo mentioned about the mother and her child. Ok i guess you can bring them in. We will have to talk over what will happen to them, if they stay or if we find a place for them."
"Yes, ok, right away," Curb obeyed.
Curb turned around and opened the door waving his hand to Fred to tell them to come in. Fred came in with a woman wearing a dress (she still had her apron on) with her hair in a bun but all messed up with some twigs in it and a boy around the age of ten with a white shirt and tan pants. They had some mud smuges on them, probably from hiding away when the Orgians came attacking. Fred led them to the table in the kitchen where they took a seat.

Eedeed quickly took a glance at the woman and boy and then turned her head up toward the ceiling, "Akineo, Nukanah, Nerak!! This is very urgent! We have some guest here!"

Nukanah was the first to enter through the kitchen door (there were two, one on both ends of the kitchen. Nukanah came from the one that led to other rooms of the big house). Right after her was Akineo who was sorta disappointed that Nukanah beat her to getting to the kitchen before her. After one minute, Nerak came down with Jaiter in her hands, both looking suprised to what's going on.
"Curb, Fred, are they the survivors from Scarmbi?" Akineo asked looking at the woman and boy.
Fred and Curb both nodded while smiling, thinking they did a very honorable job. Akineo was actually very happy and proud they were able to get some survivors but she had to decide their reward later on.
" Hello, I'm Akineo, the oldest here. And this is my sisters Eedeed and Nukanah. And dont worry you will be fine here, see this is sort of another survivor, Nerak." Akineo said pointing out who everyone was.
"Don't be alarmed, this is my little friend Jaiter, she is really nice and wouldn't hurt anyone like you guys," Nerak said noticing their faces on Jaiter.

The woman thought they were friendly enough and were safe to trust so she told them about her and her son. "Oh my goodness, thank you very much. I'm sorry for not taking your hospitality the first time, I was just worried that we will be a burden but your guards came back and told us that you really indeed wanted to take us in. Our home has been destroyed by fire from the Orgians and we have no where to live now and its hard to get any thing such as food because the markets at Scarmbi are no longer. My name is Ellibel Yanson and this is my son Jacque." Said Ellibel.
"Oh, you dont have to worry about anything!!! We always welcome anyone who needs a home, well almost anyone. You know, just not the bad people." Nukanah said with a huge grin with a happy to have guests, but she said her last sentence in a whisper as if the bad people could hear her such as the Orgians.
Then she turned to look at Jacque, who was sitting down quietly holding on to his mother's apron as if Nukanah and them were dangerous, and gave him a long look up and down to see if he was any special. Jacque and Ellibel looked like normal human beings but Nukanah had a feeling there was something more to it with Jacque but she doesn't know yet.
Curb and Fred who were still standing there left to probably go do some work they haven't done yet. Then Akineo went to show Ellibel and Jacque where they will now be staying and so they can freshen up while Eedeed went to go get some new clean clothes for Ellibel and Jacque. Nerak and Nukanah were left in the kitchen alone except Jaiter was still there.

"Can you sense anything strange about Jacque?" Nukanah asked Nerak.
"No, nothing in particular, it's just that he seems to be all human. Why? Do you have somethign wrong against humans?" Nerak replied obviously getting the wrong idea.

"No, not at all. And for your information i am part human so why should i be? No, i just sense something, like he isn't all that human but i don't sense that with his mom. I sense that he has some secret of strong power or something but can't figure it out." Nukanah explained.
"well i dont think i really sensed anything and that's probably because i didnt pay much attention to the boy." Nerak said with a playful grin, but then she got back to seriousness and said, "But next time i will keep a look out of him and check if i see anything strange. Though how can you sense somethign like this?"
Before Nukanah could answer Nerak, Akineo and Eedeed came into the kitchen looking exhausted but Nukanah decided to tell about what she senses of Jacque later on.
