Chapter 106: A Favorite of K'hym's.
After traveling for a time, Thorn lost all fear of the motorcycle and was excited at everything she saw. Pointing at stuff and trying to look everywhere so she didn't miss anything. Pam was riding right next to me and seemed to be talking to her over The Green.
It took about 20 minutes to get back to Pam's building and Thorn was unhappy that the ride was over. However, it did take her a few steps to get her balance back after sitting on the rumbling bike. It looked like we had converted another lucky soul to the Church of Two Wheels.
When they opened the elevator to Pam's loft they were greeted by Rose and Hazel. To their surprise, they were both flying. This shocked Pamela tremendously as she didn't understand how they were doing it.
Logan pointed to J'onn who had his eyes on the girls. He had a smile on his face and was also floating in the air. Thorn poked her head from around Pam's leg that she was hiding behind and looked at this strange man who had the same skin color as she had.
"Ah, you have returned." J'onn unfolded his feet from his sitting position in the air and landed on the ground. "I was attempting to tire the young with a game of Flying and Chase, it was a favorite of K'hym's activities prior to sleep time."
Logan looked at the two girls and the excitement on their faces, "It looks like you wound them up more than tired them out J'onn." He laughed.
"It only appears that way. Once they calm down from the excitement, they will have little energy left and sleep soundly. It was one of the few things that worked for K'hym."
J'onn looked at the little face that was peeking out from behind Pam. "How were your activities this night? Did you accomplish all you had hoped to?"
Logan put a hand on Thorn's head and caressed it, "We did, but not before much damage was done with it. Mankind's ability to corrupt miracles to do harm is sometimes disheartening."
J'onn walked over to Logan and put his hand on his shoulder. "That is all the more reason to fight on young one. For if we lose hope and stop the fight, then all that will remain are the ones who do the harm."
He then looked at Pam and Thorn, "I am relieved to see you all return unharmed, and it appears young Rose and Hazel will have an elder sister as well. The blessings of your house increase Pamela Isley."
"Please Mr. J'onzz, just call me Pam. I can't thank you enough for watching the girls, how can I repay you for your time?"
"Only if you call me J'onn, Pam. And my preferred compensation would be the opportunity to sit with the children again. It fills my heart, to be able to once again participate in the lives of those we fight against the darkness for. There are some most inspirational TV shows I would like to share with them."
Pam shook her head, "Looks like I will have to finally bow to society's pressure and get a TV for the building."
"I believe I shall take my leave. There appears to be much for you both to discuss. I will see to it that you have the ability to reach me at any time, Pamela. Good evening to you both." J'onn then walked to the patio and faded from view before he left.
"I will stay with these two if you would like to go bathe with Thorn and get her something to wear. I am sure she would like to get out of that robe, and into something clean and soft for a change."
Pam gave him an appreciative look and took Thorn into the bedroom first to find clothes and then to the bathroom to clean up before she wore the new clothes.
Logan sat on the couch with Hazel and Rose, keeping them busy while planning the next day in his head. He would have to come here first thing in the morning to help Pam get clothes and furniture for the girls.
The fact that so far, they only needed water to survive helped. But they really should get some baby food and see if it is nutritious for them or not. The fact that they are wearing diapers suggests that they have the same anatomy as human children. Luckily, he hadn't been placed on diaper duty so far, so he had no knowledge in this area.
He was lost in his thoughts when Pam and Thorn exited the bathroom. The sight of Pam fresh from the shower was beyond delightful, but Logan had to push that down for now. She came and sat on the couch with us and placed Thorn in front of her so she could brush her hair.
Rose saw this and wasn't happy about the situation. She crawled over to Pam and tried to move Thorn from Pam's lap. Seeing this, Pam sat Rose between her and Thorn but put the brush in her hand and let her help brush Thorn's hair. That seemed to settle Rose down enough that she wasn't trying to push Thorn away any longer.
Thorn was very quiet and still during the whole process, Logan was later to find out that this was the first time anyone brushed her hair.
Logan breathed in the scent Pam was putting off, it smelled like a wildflower garden fresh from a rainstorm. Pam had an intense look on her face as she brushed out any snarls but made sure not to pull Thorn's hair painfully.
Hazel was curled up in my lap watching Pam as she slowly fell asleep. Logan had to admit that the sound of a brush running through long hair was a particularly drowsy sound. Thorn was practically falling asleep where she sat and Rose had lost interest in brushing, so she had laid down between Thorn and Pam falling asleep herself.
"How are you feeling Pam? I am sure you are tired from the display of power you gave in the basement of that building."
"I am about out on my feet right now, but something inside won't let me rest until the girls are cared for and sleeping soundly."
"Do you want me to go so you can go to bed? Or I can wait until you are all tucked in and then head home."
"You. You don't ha… The elevator is loud and may wake up the girls. Why don't you stay with us tonight? Only If… you want… Want to, that is." She was speaking in a whisper at the end of her sentence.
Logan thought she was incredibly cute at that moment. "If you think that would be a help, I will happily stay. I do think I will require a shower first though, today was… Strenuous, to say the least."
Pam blushed at the reminder of their time at the park. {Was that really today, it seems like so long ago.}
"Why don't you go take care of that. I will place Rose and Hazel in their Nanny plant, but I think it would be best if Thorn spent the night with us… In the bed, just in case she wakes up and doesn't recognize where she is."
Logan went to the bathroom and found a clean towel then turned the water on to his desired temperature. It only took him about 10 minutes before he stepped out of the bathroom in a pair of shorts and a thin T-shirt.
While he was in the bathroom, Pam had moved the nanny plant to the bedroom and planted some more security plants. She placed these in random areas and had just locked the patio door when Logan appeared.
"Are you sure you want me to stay? I don't want to move this relationship too fast."
"I think adding 3 kids made this relationship jump forward very awkwardly already. You staying here is nothing in response to that."
Pam took his hand and led him to her bedroom. They laid down with Thorn between them and only a sheet for covers, the loft was well heated, so it was all that was required. Logan first went into his inner world to exhaust his mental strength by making more forest before he returned to get some sleep. Wondering what the next day would bring.
As Logan slept he felt a tug on his awareness and slowly opened his eyes to see himself lying on red-colored ground. He looked up to see a red sky and realized he had returned to The Red.
A rumbling filled his ears and then he made out voices in the noise. "PRESENT YOURSELF MORTAL. PRESENT YOURSELF TO THE PARLIAMENT OF LIMBS."
