Zero looked at each of them deep in thought. 'I wonder what the little girls want if their staring at me like this.' He bent on one knee and looked at the one on the left who had purple hair and well tanned body for someone her age with grime on her clothes but not the others and the worse to him was her sad smile and deep pain in her eyes. "So what have you seen little girl?" The look he had on his face was one of deep sorrow, like if he lost someone dear to him.

The little girl piped up in a faked cheery voice that could of almost fooled him, "My names Scootalo and what do you mean im just a awesome little girl!" He saw a small spark in her eyes and chuckled.

He then point to Ruby's house and smiles, "Need anything just go there and ask for Zero, bye now."*he walked off back to his home and saw a tear run own the face of the little girl. before turning back to the path smiling, 'Well great Zero your going to raise another one.'

He walked in the door and smiling at Ruby, "Ruby do you know of a Scootalo by any chances?"

She nodded smiling in a way that turned his stomach in knots and he turned his head as saying come on. "Shes a orphan yet little of the town knows about it, everyone thinks she lives with her aunt that never comes out of the house and when i am in public she calls my aunt Ruby." Ruby looks down a bit and it pains him to see her cry.

"I-i was going to ask if she comes by here often and may i adopt her?"Te look on Ruby's face was on of extreme joy as she jumps up and hugs him which he responds with by fainting.

His senses return to him and he finds out his head is in Ruby's lap and she talking to the child and he heard father and adoption and she heard the little girl cry tears of joy. He raises his head in a deep blush before hugging the little girl which she in return hugs back and she speaks up, "You are going to be my new dad if i say yes?"

He nod but sighs and places her beside Ruby, "But im weird, i have three people in my head so if i seem to different don't around me cause it wont be me, it'll be someone else, do you understand if i seem mad just run please just run." He trails off and starts to cry as he ntices both the girls hug him smiling and Ruby looks deep in his eyes and shoos off Scoots and she hands him papers.

"I really want to talk to you again cause you ran off before i could tell you something." She grabs him and pulls him into a kiss then sits down happily. "I like you plently you just got to lear- and hes out cold again."
