Adelina followed behind the two. She smiled as she saw that the clouds had cleared, and the sun was just begining to come out. She was glad Sorka had found a good home, and now that she had, their quest for homes had been completed.

"So where will you and Brandy be staying, then, Addei? With me and Ichigo, or in the den in the forest at the base of the mountain?" Akiyama questioned curiously, smiling at her.

"Well, I'm sure Brandy would love to play in the snow as much as possible, but me..." She paused, "I prefer staying where it is warm. And though when the wind blows in the mountains it's warmer than when it blows in the Valley, I'd like to live in the hallow we found." She shrugged, "As to where Brandy wishes to be is up to her, if that's alright with you of course?" She questioned him, and hoped that she didn't offend him by stating that she wanted to live in the hallow. Just that outburst that arose, and caused confusion and such, Addei didn't want for that to happen, and the only way to make sure of that was to leave a bit of space between all of them.

Akiyama listened, an understanding look 'cross his face. "Well, we're still neighbors. And everyone is welcome to mine and Ichigo's den whenever they'd like." He smiled. "If Brandy wants to stay, that's fine with me, if you're okay with it, but I can't see why she wouldn't want to live with her mother." Akiyama saw the den just up ahead. "Well, I suppose that you can ask her."

Adelina nodded and aproached the den, waggin her tail behind her as she did.
Brandy looked at Ichigo, then peeked outside. She bounded towards her mother, and with a shreik she yelled, "Moooomay!!!" She smiled as she lunged at Adelina knocking her off of her feet.
Addei smiled and wrapped her paws around her daughter. She gave her a loving lick on the cheek, and smiled warmly. "Hey, you." Gently she pushed Brandy off of her and into the snow. "Now, I have something important I'd like to ask you about." Adelina smiled.
Brandy giggled and wiggled around in the snow, "What is it?" She asked in a wondering tone as she craned her neck to look at her mother.
"Well, I'ts about your home, and where you would like to stay." She smiled and ruffled the fur on Brandy's head. "So, you have a choice. You can live with me back at the first hallow we found, or you can stay at the cave with Akiyama and Ichigo. The decision is all yours." Adelina smiled as she waited for her daughters response.
Brandy hesitated, she'd lived with her mother since she was born, and had had little freedom to chose where she wish to stay. She flicked her tail playfully, and thought on the subject. "Well, if I can still come to visit, I'd like to stay in the mountains." Brandy said as she thumped her tail against the dry snow.
A little taken back Addei smiled, "Well, you'll have to ask Ichigo and Akiyama if they have room enough to keep you." Adelina smiled and nuzzled Brandy as she scruntched up her nose and smiled lovingly. She knew like all 'Kiin there came a time that they wanted freedom, and Addei wasn't about to take that away from her daughter.
Brandy then looked up at Akiyama and asked, "Well, can I? Can I?"

Akiyama stepped into the den next, falling back when Ichigo tackled him
"Where - were - you?" She demanded to know, glaring firmly at her father.
Getting up, Akiyama sighed. "A snow storm came and Adelina and I had to go back to her den for the night. Good grief, Ichigo, calm down." He smiled and poked her nose.
He looked at Brandy when she asked him if she could stay. He smirked and sat down, a dramatic thinking look across his face. "Well... I suppose so, yes." He smiled. "Just make sure that you spend plenty of time with your mom, too, okay?"
Ichigo gasped, "Brandy can stay? She's staying? Awesome!" She ran over and tackled Brandy playfully, glad that she was staying. She ran back to Akiyama. "Can Sonea stay if she wants to?"
Akiyama looked at Sorka, then to Ichigo. "Firstly, go talk to Sorka." He shood her toward his blue friend with his paw.
"Can Sonea stay with me and Brandy and Dad if she wants to?" Ichigo immediatly asked Sorka, skidding to a halt in front of her.
Akiyama sighed, "Goodness, you'd think she's an only kiin, the way she's acting," he rolled his eyes jokingly.

Adelina giggled at Ichigo's reaction, "She may be at heart." She grinned and watched at the excitement within Ichigo grew.
Brandy hopped, "Can she Sorka? Can she? We can have like lots of FUN!!!"

"At heart?" Akiyama asked Addei, turning to her. "Why might she be an only kiin at heart?"
Ichigo nodded as she bounced, "Yeah! Loads of fun, lots of fun! Infinate fun!" She grinned.

"Mainly because she's been without her brother for so long." Addei shrugged and smiled unsure really.
Brandy then lunged at Ichigo, "Yes, we can do loads of stuff! Like we can go get those berries and have a feast!"

Akiyama looked toward Ichigo with concern. "Well, I have a feeling that they'll be getting together soon. It's not unlike Kiriya or Ichigo to run into each other when everyone least expects it." He smiled, then turned to Addei. "Thank you." "Yes! Yes, yes, yes! And we can play games, and go swimming - if she wants to - and have snow ball fights all the time!" Ichigo grinned up at Sorka from underneath Brandy. ((Okay, maybe it's time that the kiin stopped getting on Sorka.... ^_^;  ) |

((I'd have to agree. xD ))
Brandy smiled and scruntched up her nose, "Swimming? You'd teach me right?" She asked bashfully as she flicked her tail and bopped Ichigo's nose.
Addei smiled, "Well, I wish I could say the same for Brandy and Teague, but she's used to it." Addei laughed a little, "I think she enjoys being an only child, because she likes the attention."

Ichigo crossed her eyes to examine her poked nose. "Yep! I'd teach ya'." She smiled proudly. "I is a good learner." She thought for a minute, then snickered. "Er... I is a good teacher, I was meaning." She grinned at her improper speaking.
"She seems to be okay with that," Akiyama agreed, looking at the small pile of kiin, chuckling. "Looks like the three of them are best friends," he smiled.

"Good, 'cos I is a good learner." She smiled as she stressed the 'I' then she giggled and turned over onto her back flipping up snow with her tail as she did so.
"I would have to agree." Adelina said as she nodded, "They all do seem to just clique."

"Then this'll be pretty easy," Ichigo giggled. As Brandy rolled off of her, she grinned and began 'swimming' threw the snow, really just making a messed up snow angel. "See? Like this! It's really easy."
"It's wonderful, isn't it?" Akiyama asked, watching the kiin. "It looks like everyone made a new friend or two." He smiled happily, peacefully.

Brandy laughed at how silly Ichigo looked, "It works better in real water right?" She asked between giggles.
"I suppose so." Addei said with a smile.
