Fernando had everyone wait outside on the porch while Jorgina-Daisy and Rachel went inside for some board games. They would return with just a deck of cards. They spend the next couple of hours playing cards, even after the parents returned home. For some reason the parents begin to set up folding tables just outside the gates to their houses and begin to put food, paper plates, plastic utensils and other things on the tables as the sun sits above the horizon.\n\nThe younger girls walk up to Grandmother to ask questions as they look around.\n\n“What’s going on?” Rachel asks Grandmother in Spanish.\n\n“What does it look like, little one?” Grandmother answers in Spanish, “It’s the last day of summer, and like we did in New York, we are going to have a party.”\n\n“Huh?” the younger girls gasp.\n\nWandaline’s mother puts her table next to Grandmother’s followed by a large covered roasting pot. Lifting the cover exposed a large roasted shoulder of feral beast. The two ladies glance it over and nod approvingly.\n\n“New York is celebrating its last day and so should we.” Wandaline’s mother tells them, then looks at the older girls by the steps wondering what was going on. “Wandaline! Here And Now!” Her mother all but yells at her.\n\nWandaline puts her cards down and gets up from the steps, “Coming mother!”\n\nShe arrives to her mother’s side. “We got a few things to do.” Her mother tells her, “Let’s go.” Wandaline follows her mother to their home.\n\nMary and Tonya also gets called, as were Jeanie, Rachel R. and Francesca. Juanita, Cathy and Katherine soon get up and leave for their homes. Fernando waits by the stairs by himself.\n\nThe mothers of the girls add to the tables, food, and drinks by Grandmother’ table, creating a large service area. A black limo along with a security detail and a couple of news trucks pulls up to Grandmother’s house while the other nieghbors look out their windows. They can see Pouncefield’s Mayor Nefertiti Cuadrado and New York Senator Olga Mendez step out into view. Other police cars arrive and block off the street from both ends. Several reporters step up to the mayor who parries their listening devices aside and steps up to the table.\n\n[Conversation in Spanish unless noted.]\n\n“Roast Beast?” Mayor Cuadrado asks.\n\n“Roast Feral Beast. Mrs. Gonzalez made it.” Grandmother answers, pointing to Wandaline’s house.\n\n“I see.” Mayor Cuadrado nods approvingly, then asking, “Empanadas?”\n\n“Of course. Meat, vegeterian, and nut dessert empanadas.” Grandmother answers pointing them out, adding, “And we got rice, soup, salad, beans, cakes, drinks and other things are coming.”\n\n“Good to hear. Pouncefeild needs something like this.” Mayor Cuadrado replies.\n\n“Our New York community does this every year.” Senator Mendez says.\n\nMayor Cuadrado nods her head slightly before changing the subject, “And where is your home?”\n\nSenator Mendez leads her away from the table, heading down the street, “Its over there. As you see its not finished yet, but it should be done in a day or two and I’ll be moving in after that.”\n\n[Conversation returns to English.]\n\nJuanita, Mary and Cathy’s mothers arrive with more food fixings, including collard greens and baked macaroni and cheese. All this activity does not go unnoticed as Cythina, Pokeinfo, Edna and Edward step out of the fox’s home. They slowly walk over to Grandmother’s house, knowing how uncivil in their eyes she can be. They stand at the hinge side of the gate with Rachel and Jorgina-Daisy on the other side of the fence.\n\n“What is going on here?” Cynthia asks before any of the others could.\n\n“We are going to have a party.” Jorgina-Daisy tells her.\n\n“A party?” They all ask.\n\n“Wait a minute, Jorge.” Rachel tell her, before turning to Cynthia and the others, “It’s a block party we do every year in New York City.”\n\n“But this is not New York.” Pokeinfo throws in.\n\nFollowed by Edna, “Are we invited?”\n\n“So?” Rachel looks at Pokeinfo, and then at Edna, “You want in? Its open to everyone, but you need to get your parents to set up a table with food and drinks on it. You can set it up here or where you live.”\n\nEdna runs straight for home with Edwards after her yelling, “Edna! Wait! I Don’t Think They Would Allow It!”\n\nCynthia and Pokeinfo look at them disappear behind the house’s door and then turn to Rachel. Cynthia states to her, “We don’t live on this block.”\n\n“You’re welcomed to come, and bring your parents. But we are going to need help in cleaning up when its over. Think you can do that?” Mayor Cuadrado says and asks as she returns with Senator Mendez.\n\n“You should be running and get your friends and their parents over here. This is not going to last forever.”Senator Mendez throws in.\n\n“Really?” Pokeinfo asks.\n\n“Yes. Really.” Mayor Cuadrado tell him.\n\nAs Pokeinfo runs to his home and get his friends with Cynthia just behind him, Senator Mendez asks, “Dona Maria, is this enough for everyone?”\n\n“I have another roast in the oven, and the others have more food. We all planned it out during the day.” Grandmother answers.\n\n“What about your boy?” Senator Mendez asks.\n\n“He’ll be fine. I’ll tell the girls to keep him busy and happy so he wont go to bed early.” Grandmother answers.\n\n“And I’ll make my notice on the 10o’clock news when its time.” Mayor Cuadrado adds.\n\nThe Spanish is broken when Juanita, Mary and Cathy’s mothers arrive with piñatas in their arms, asking which one is first and where it goes in English. Grandmother answers by pointing at the traditional donkey piñata and at the tree at the edge of the curb. The others get hidden away behind the fence that surrounds the house. She then calls to Fernando.\n\n“Fernando! Help the ladies set up piñata on the tree!” Grandmother yells across the distance to him in Spanish.\n\nFernando relunctantly gets up from his spot and walks over to the gate. Though some who knows him thought he was going to fly to the top of the tree instead takes the piñata and climbs the tree with it. Once on the largest branch, he sets up the rope and piñata on it before climbing down the tree.\n\nFernando sits back down at the steps. Rachel and Jorgina-Daisy walk after him when he passes them.\n\n“You OK?” Rachel asks.\n\n“I’m just tired.” Fernando replies.\n\n“Maybe you would some tight pussy?” Jorgina-Daisy asks him, almost taunting him but not meaning to do so.\n\n“Jorge...” Fernando tells her.\n\n“What?”Jorgina-Daisy replies in question.\n\n“We need to talk.” Fernando tells her before turning to Rachel, “In private.”\n\n“I’ll be back.’ Rachel says before walking away.\n\n“Jorge. Sit.” Fernando says as he points to the step next to him.\n\nJorgina-Daisy does as she was told, “What is it?”\n\n“I’ll tell you bluntly. But I do not need you to freak out.” Fernando begins.\n\n“Tell me what?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.\n\n“When you were a boy, while with the gang, did you stuck your dick into Tonya?” Fernando asks point blank.\n\n“Yeah. We all fucked that little tight pussy of hers all the time. Just like we did with the other girls. What of it?” Jorgina-Daisy says and asks.\n\n“Tonya registered Positive on her SIV Test.” Fernando tells her. Jorgina-Daisy looks at her brother with gasp. “You know what that means?” Jorgina-Daisy nods her head slowly. “Look. Tomarrow, Dr. Leary will have you tested and if you test positive, then you will go under treatment to cure you.”\n\nJorgina-Daisy just sighs.\n\n“Look, Jorge. If there is a way for a cure, I will find it for you.” Fernando tells her, “This is not to spoil your fun for tonight, but to find out the truth. Understand that. I want you to have fun tonight, and tomarrow we’ll see Dr. Leary and get you tested and treated.”\n\n“Yeah...” Jorgina-Daisy says.\n\n“Jorge, I got headache. I want you to have fun and make sure Rachel does too. I’m going to take a pill and go to bed. At least do me the favor of beating the shit out that piñata for me.”Fernando tells her.\n\n“Alright...” Jorgina-Daisy says, wanting to say more but doesn’t. Fernando notices her hesitation.\n\n“What’s up?” Fernando asks her.\n\n“Nothing...” Jorgina-Daisy begins, then asks, “What if as a girl I don’t have SIV?”\n\n“We wont know until we get you tested. Even then I need to talk to Wandaine’s mother anyways.” Fernando explains.\n\n“What about?”Jorgina-Daisy asks.\n\n“Personal stuff. Mostly of you, Tonya and the other girls.” Fernando answers, “Eventually I will need to with everyone’s parents.”\n\n“You don’t need to talk to most of their mom’s.” Jorgina-Daisy replies.\n\n“What do you mean by that?” Fernando asks.\n\n“When I was turned into a girl, they were there- Wandaline’s mother, Grace’s mother, Rachel R. and Francis’ mother and Dr. Leary. Francis try to put blame on Rachel R. by saying because her sister is having sex with you, so should she with me. Then her mother went off on her, where they all agreed that if you’re screwing their girls, its fine with them but not fine if I was going it when I was a boy.” Jorgina-Daisy explains.\n\n“You know why they said all that?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Because you have good grades and a summer job and that you would support them if they got pregnant and that I don’t have any of those things.”Jorgina-Daisy explains.\n\n“I see.” Fernando says to himself. He then looks at her, “Well, this is your second chance in life. Don’t waste it.”\n\nAfter a moment of silence on both sides, Fernando slowly gets up and steps into the house. He manages to get passed the step before Jorgina-Daisy stops the door from closing and enters the house behind him. She stands with the door closed behind her with her hands behind her.\n\n“Fernando?” Jorgina-Diasy calls to him.\n\nHe stops and turns around to face her, “Yes, Jorge?”\n\n“So... because I might have SIV, you’re not going to rape me?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.\n\n“What kind of question is that?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Just answer that question, please?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.\n\n“Like I told you, maybe I should, but I wont. Not now for you’re expecting it and it would not be rape if you laid there and enjoyed it. And now that you might have SIV, it becomes less of a chance of happening. But that was never the point.” Fernando tells her as he steps up to her. He looks down at her as she looks up at him, he slowly puts his hand behind her and softly squeezes on her butt cheek. She shutters nervously and leans against him as he strokes her nether regions from behind, “You got a lot learn. Being a girl is a lot more than being a boy with a pussy between your legs instead of a dick.”\n\n“Don’t you think I know that?” Jorgina-Daisy asks arching herself just slightly to get a better feel of her brother’s hard bulge against her groin.\n\n“What would you do if I raped you and you got pregnant?” Fernando asks her sternly.\n\nShe bites on her lower lip for a moment before answering, “I cant get pregnant yet. Its not mating season and I have not had my period yet.”\n\n“That’s besides the point. Getting raped should be your number one fear and getting pregnant when you don’t want it to happen should be number two. You should be thinking about being sexually responsible before taking such a chance. But you’re thinking like a boy, but instead of getting your dick hard, your pussy is getting wet and you think that because of it you should be fucking right now. You need to think like a girl, and what you have between your legs should be treated like gold, only to be given to that special somebody, and not just anybody because you’re freaking horny. Do that and you become a slut.” He tells her.\n\nJorgina-Daisy nods before takng a step back. Fernando’s hand slides off her rear and then around her hip towards her front, where she catches it and move it to her crotch, pressing his hand against her. After a second or so of lightly humping her crotch against his fingers, Fernando manages to pull his hand from her grasp.\n\n“Jorge, you need to stop.” Fernando tells her as he walks to the kitchen.\n\nJorgina-Daisy follows him to the kitchen and stops before the refrigerator. Fernando takes a glass of water upstairs with him, needing to step around his new little sister who continues to follow him up the stairs. Once in his room, Fernando goes into his desk and takes a small container of pills, taking one of the pills into his mouth followed by a swig of water chasing it. He leans his butt against his desk, seeing Jorgina-Daisy at the doorway not entering his room.\n\n“Get in here.” Fernando tells him in a stern tone while putting his folded cane on the desk behind him.\n\nJorgina-Daisy slowly steps into the room and takes Fernando’s hand as he reaches out to her. She leans up against him, pressing her crotch against his as she looks up at her older brother before putting one foot outside of his. He puts his hand behind her at the small of her back. She lets out a sigh before resting the side of her face on his chest.\n\n“What am I going to do with you?” Fernando asks himself.\n\n“I don’t know.” Jorgina-Daisy answers as she looks up at him.\n\n“I was taking to myself.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“It does not matter either way because I do not know either.” Jorgina-Daisy tells him.\n\n“It does matter.” Fernando replies.\n\n“Why?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.\n\n“Think like a girl, will ya?”Fernando tells her sternly.\n\n“I am.” Jorgina-Daisy replies just as sternly. She takes a step back, taking his hand and try to pull him to his bed. He only takes a couple of steps before managing to get her grasp off him. She takes a few steps backwards and sits hard on his bed with her legs open. Jorgina-Daisy pulls up her skirt and pulls her panty crotch to the side showing Fernando all she had to offer. “Look. That’s me, a girl! We talked about it when you put your finger in me down there, all thoughts of aggression and hate I had against you as a boy are gone!” She then puts her thumb and finger tips together and taps them against her chest, “Minus the hate I once had for you, what feelings I have for you now are here, like before but more so! It hurts to know that in your head there is a timebomb that can take you away and I cant go nothing about it!”\n\n“Then shut up and cover yourself.” Fernando tells her, “I swear, Jorge. If we end up in a sexual relationship, it will be because it happened on its own and not one pushing the other for a quickie, and I know of you planning on getting me in trouble if I do something to you.”\n\nJorgina-Daisy slowly covers herself up and folds her hands between her knees, looking down at her feet, “How you know?”\n\n“The girls told me that you would. Because the way you are acting says to them that you have something planned. They are girls and they know when a girl is up to something. And they made Francis fess up.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“That bitch.” Jorgina-Daisy says to herself, though Fernando can hear it.\n\n“Look, I can smell that you are wanting it from right here. So when Dr. Leary examines that vagina of yours and sees that there is no brusing in there because you were lubed up while we did it, she’s going to report to the police that you were not raped and you get in trouble for lying to the police.” Fernando tells her, adding, “But that’s not the point, is it?”\n\nJorgina-Daisy nods for the moment.\n\n“You’re horny as hell right now and you do not know what to do right now. In fact, if you were Rachel, I would be fucking her right now. But because you might be SIV Infected, and other things that are going on, its not going to happen between you and I. I will do my best for you as your brother, but I want you back as a brother. How would you like it if you were changed back as a boy and you had the memories of me doing you lovely?” Fernando says and asks.\n\n“I don’t want to be changed back as a boy.”Jorgina-Daisy holds back from yelling.\n\n“And why not?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Because...” Jorgina-Daisy begins. After a moment of silence, “I do not want to return to hating you, to be in competition with you for everything we have. To fight you knowing that it may kill you. I don’t want that. Things have been easier now that I am a girl.”\n\n“And what about you, me and sex?” Fernando answers.\n\nJorgina-Daisy lets out a sigh, “Don’t get me wrong, but after all this craziness is over, I might kick Rachel out of your bed. Its not that I want too or have too, but as your sister I would need too. At least to show you how much I do love you and maybe say sorry for all the mean things I did to you in life.”\n\n“You don’t have to do anything you do not want too.” Fernando tells her.\n\nJorgina-Daisy looks up at her brother, “I do want too.”\n\n“And how would I know you would not set me up in a rape case?” Fernando asks sternly.\n\n“I have not told anybody that you molested me and put your finger in me.” Jorgina-Daisy answers him.\n\n“Francis says you told her.” Fernando points out.\n\n“Uhm... she’s my friend and girlfriend when I was a boy.” Jorgina-Daisy replies nervously.\n\n“That’s no excuse, Jorge.” Fernando begins to tell her, “We all have a committed trust not to hurt one another. Not just physically and also with words. If the girls had not spoke to Francis, who knows what she would have done with the details?”\n\n“I’m sorry.” Jorgina-Daisy says to him holding back tears.\n\n“Don’t say you’re sorry with words. Do it with actions, and maybe you will being to learn wha t it is to be a girl. Mind you, you only been a girl for a couple of days, everyone aound you have been girls for life. You got a lot to learn.” Fernando tells her, adding after a few moments of silence, “Now go downstairs. I got to lie down for a while.”\n\n“Then I’ll lie down with you.” Jorgina-Daist tells him.\n\n“You’re leaving even if I have to grab your fluffy tail and drop you out of the window! Now leave, I want to be left alone.” Fernando tells her sternly.\n\n“But...” Jorgina-Daisy tries to complain.\n\n“No Butts, Jorge.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“You heard him, Jorge! Leave.” Rachel walks in with a covered paper plate of food in her hands, she puts it on the desk for a moment, “Grandma wants to see you downstairs anyway.”\n\nMiffed at the whole situation, Jorgina-Dasiy stammers out of the room. Once they hear her stomp down the stairs, Rachel steps up to Fernando.\n\n“Grandma wants you to eat and then be downstairs.”Rachel tells him.\n\n“I got a headache. You mind?” Fernando tells her.\n\n“Its either me or Grandma. So eat up now and so we can sit down where its quiet outside.” Rachel points out to him. “Its rice, beans, some roast beast, and a few other things she threw in there. Oh yeah... and a can of soda.” She explains to him before pulling out a can of soda from her skirt’s pocket, placing it by the food.\n\nNot seeing this as a winning situation, Fernando sits down and begins to eat after moving his Mac keyboard away on his desk. Rachel leans against his chair and picks at his food. Though it does not bother Fernando, he asks, “Haven’t you eaten?”\n\n“I told grandma that I would share this with you.” Rachel answers.\n\n“Anything else you willing to share?” Fernando asks her.\n\n“If you’re talking about sex, then maybe but only if we have a private moment in a private space where we can do it.” Rachel answers.\n\n“How about here and now?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Not possible.” Rachel answers, “The others will be coming in to drag you downstairs if you do not come down on your own.”\n\n“Well, maybe they can join in after I do you.” Fernando replies.\n\n“That all you think about, sex, sex, sex!” Rachel sounding like she was complaining.\n\n“If you girls weren’t giving it to me so much, I would not be wanting it so much.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“I was joking...” Rachel tells him. She lets out an “EEK!” as he quickly pulls her on his lap. She lands on his lap with her legs open and her skirt crumpled up exposing her panties into view.\n\nHolding her down, Fernando puts his nose to hers, “I don’t joke around.” He then presses his lips onto hers, for the moment she struggles but relaxes and allowing the passion between them increase slowly.\n\nEventually she pushes him off her breaking their kiss, “Alright, you won.”\n\n“There is nothing to win but what we have here and now.” Fernando replies.\n\n“Then stop.” Rachel statements to him.\n\n“Why?” Fernando asks as he gets closer to her.\n\n“Because you might get what you want, that why.” Rachel complains.\n\n“What if I want is just a kiss?” Fernando asks.\n\n“With you it’s always starts out with a kiss and then ends when you’re pulling your cock out of me after you filled me with your cum!” Rachel points out.\n\n“Well, you do not say no. That’s why.” Fernando replies.\n\n“I was not complaining.” Rachel tells him, “I’m just merely stating a fact that if we continue, that is where we will soon end up.”\n\n“So if you’re not complaining...” Fernando begins to tell her, before lowering his lips to her. Instead, Rachel turns her head away, allowing Fernando to kiss down her jaw line along the most sensitive places of her face.\n\nRachel moans softly as she lets it happen for a second. She then pushes him off her, breathing heavy for air, “That’s enough for now.”\n\nFernando looks at her for the moment, “So you’re saying no?”\n\n“Yes, I’m saying no. At least for now. Maybe later on I can thow you some nookie, definitely when we go to bed later tonight.” Rachel says to him as she sit up on his lap. She looks around and then at him, “Mind backing up the chair so I can get off?” Fernando backs up slowly and slightly before picking up his little adopted sister in his arms, despite her complaints, “ Fernando... what are you doing?”\n\nHe takes her to his bed and puts her on it and then pins her down by the shoulders. She shakes her head no in protest as what might happen, though she was as interested as he could be. But to her surprise he gives her a peck on the lips before looking down at her. “Thanks.” He says as he slowly lets her go.\n\n“What for?” Rachel asks.\n\n“For everything up to now. For being there even though I did not want you there. For doing all those things I needed when I could not for myself. Those sort of things.” Fernando answers her as he sits up next to her.\n\nRachel manages to sit up next to him, giving him one final look before returning the kiss to him.\n\n“And what’s that for?” Fernando asks her.\n\n“Same reasons as you stated.” Rachel tells him before hopping off the bed. She walks over to his desk where she covers and picks up the remains of the meal, “I’ll throw this out but Grandma wants you down stairs so be there. Then we’ll look for a quiet place for your headache.”\n\n“OK.” Fernando replies as she walks out the door.\n\nThere is a slight commotion outside the room before the door opens. Wandaline’s mother steps through the door and walks into the room.\n\n“You’re not feeling well?” Ms Gonzalez asks in a tone of voice that seems to sooth the pains away.\n\n“I think you know I never am. Mrs. Gonzalez.” Fernando answers.\n\n“One day all those pains will stop and you will be more than a man for any women.” Ms Gonzalez says to him.\n\n“Huh?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Let me ask you this, Fernando. How is Wandaline as a lover?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks.\n\n“Uhm... we never went that far, Mrs. Gonzalez.” Fernando nerviously answers.\n\n“Come now. I know you and my daughter have sex as often as you two can get it. And its not she told me, a mother knows these things about her girl and I especially know of my Wandaline.”Mrs Gonzalez says in a non-threatening tone, “And I know you two did when I revived you all your memories came flooding out at me. I’m sure you two did last night, that I don’t mind. But that is not the point.”\n\n“Then what is?” Fernando asks holding back the jitterness in his voice.\n\n“Fernando, If I was Wandaline’s age right now, like her sister or cousin, she would be facing a losing battle from me in getting to you as often as possible. Now, because of you, Wandaline’s outlook in life has brightened up. She is no longer a sad, shy little girl she once was, and her grades had improved dramtically. For the first time, she has a friend in you, and more than a friend as you two occasionally share each other’s bodies. Why do you think I leave you two alone for so long when you visit her?” Mrs. Gonzalez tells him, “The point is, is she living up to your expectations of being a girlfriend and a lover?”\n\n“Its not that, Mrs. Gonzalez. I’m not forcing her to do anything she does not want to do with me. She is a lovely girl and a great friend.” Fernando begins to explain.\n\n“Don’t pussy foot around with me. Is she a good lover to you or not?” Mrs. Gonzalez almost forces the point on him.\n\n“OK. She is. She is a great friend and an excellent lover. And I would do anything for her that she asks me to do.” Fernando explains.\n\n“I see. And you would do anything for her that she asks, why?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks.\n\n“Because she is a friend and I love her as I’m sure she does me. The proof she does I think is that I sense she returns a lot more than what I give her.” Fernando explains.\n\n“I will let you know that she would do anything for you though she would not tell you that she would. But the problem is, is she able to compete against the other girls? Compared to Rachel R. or Grace or the others, even your adopted sister, we, I know you screw daily, all who can maybe do more in terms of being a lover to you, can Wandaline compete with them?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks.\n\n“I’m not demanding Wandaline or any of the others to drop their panties for me because I want some fast and quick action, because I don’t. I’m not forcing anyone for just sex, let alone forcing any of them to do anything. I just want what can be given an if Wandaline can only give me a kiss and nothing else, I would accept is as a treasure for life.” Fernando tries to answer Mrs. Gonzalez’s question, then asks one of his own, “Something wrong with Wandaline?”\n\n“Nothing that the ordinary doubts and pains a girl goes through everyday. That’s all.” Mrs. Gonzalez answers.\n\n“Doubts and pains? About what?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Typical girl stuff. Like I said all along, how does she stack up against the others, that puts doubt and pain in her mind that she is not good enough for you or not adding up to meet your expectations.” Mrs. Gonzalez answers.\n\n“I don’t know where she got that. Wandaline is more than good enough and more than capable to meet my expectations.” Fernando lets out to Mrs. Gonzalez before letting out a sigh. “Wandaline should not be comparing herself to the other girls and be in competition with them. I am not looking for daily orgies or wanton free for all sex all the time with any of them.”\n\n“But you have that ticking time bomb in your head that can explode and take you with it because of the stress in your everyday life. We all know about it and we know that the pressure has to go down some how. We also know that you would not be mean to the girls, be abusive to them and if something were to happen that you would stand up to the plate and take on the responsibility of your actions.” Mrs. Gonzalez tells him.\n\n“My actions? They are the one putting the moves on me!” Fernando points out to her. \n\n“You get my little Wandaline pregnant and you will have to deal with me.” Mrs. Gonzalez points out to him.\n\n“I get Wandaline pregnant, I will what is right for her and not for me. I will do what I can to help her and if I have to be a father to our baby and a husband to her. Now don’t tell me what I need to do, and this goes to all the girls!” Fernando lets her have it. He then tenses up for a moment, putting his hand to his temple, clenching his teeth tightly. A tiny droplet of blood collects under his nostril.\n\nMrs. Gonzalez lookst at him angrily and then realizes something was wrong. “You alright?” she asks with concerns.\n\n“Just leave. Please.” Fernando tells her in a shakey voice that verifies his appearance.\n\n“I’ll go get Dr. Leary for you.” Mrs. Gonzalez says to him before getting up.\n\n“No!” Fernando holds back from yelling at her, then growls at her, “I’ll be fine.”\n\nMrs. Gonzalez nods her head slightly before stepping out of the room. Instead of running, she seems to float a couple of inches off the floor and zooms through the house. Fernando makes his way to the bed and lays on his back, looking up at Rachel’s top bunk. He takes off his glasses, letting them fall onto the floor before closing his eyes.\n\nMrs. Gonzalez makes her way to Dr. Leary who was with Grandmother serving food to those who entered the party area. Her actions do not go unnoticed as Wandaline looks from where the girls were by the tree in the front yard. She gets Rachel attention as the older women make a fast pace to the house.\n\n“Rachel, I need to talk to you in private.” Wandaline tells her as she pulls on Rachel’s arm. \n\nRachel protests for the moment, but in looking around and seeing Grandmother not in the immediate area and Wandaline pointing to the closing door, they make their way quickly to the house. They run up the stairs as they hear the bedroom door close. They enter the room after running up the stairs with Rachel taking the lead.\n\n[Conversation in Spanish unless noted.]\n\n“Why were you to be stressing my grandson?” Grandmother almost scolds Mrs. Gonzalez, then she and the others turn to face the girls. “What are you two doing here?”\n\n“This is my room.” Rachel almost challenges her elder, “Now what happened to Fernando?”\n\n“Leave the room.” Grandmother tells her sternly.\n\n“Mother?” Wandaline asks almost challenging her parent.\n\n“I just asked him a couple of questions before he passed out.” Mrs. Gonzalez answers without realiing what she had said.\n\nDr. Leary takes off her stethoscope off Fernando’s chest and covers him with his blanket, “He’ll be fine after a day or two of rest.” She then turns to Mrs. Gonzalez, “You have no right to be asking Fernando any questions, especially those that might stress him like this.”\n\n“Mother...” Wandaline calls to her sternly.\n\n“Don’t ‘Mother’ Me...” Mrs. Gonzalez tells her daughter, “I was doing it for you!”\n\n“Then don’t do anything for me!” Wandaline tells her as she makes her way to the bed and sits in front of Dr. Leary.\n\n“What are you doing?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks sternly.\n\n“Something to help since you’re in no condition to do so.” Wandaline almost spits at her mother. Her mother grabs her by the closest arm to pull her away from him as she tries to put her hands at his temples. Grandmother grabs Mrs. Gonzalez by the elbow of her arm.\n\n“Let the child do the right thing.” Grandmother tells her.\n\nThey look at each other for a while before Mrs. Gonzalez let her daughter go. After a moment Wandaline goes back to to putting her hands at Fernando’ temples. She concentrates hards on his being, acting on it and monitoring it at the same time. If the room was darker, they would able to see the space between her hands and his head glow as she transfers part of her own healing powers onto his. Constantly checking on him, the process was drawn out over a minute that seemed to have lasted a lot longer. Soon the glow subsides to nothingness and she pulls her hands away from him.\n\nFernando slowly opens his eyes and suddenly shuts them.\n\n“Welcome back to the world of the living.” Wandaline tells him.\n\nFernando just sighs for a moment.\n\n“We’re going to have a long talk about this...” Mrs. Gonzalez tells her daughter.\n\n“You are not going to punish this girl.” Grandmother tells her.\n\nFor a moment they exchange meanful stares.\n\n“How about we go back to the party before they run out of Roast Beast.” Dr. Leary tells them. That seemed to get their attention, as they nodded before getting up and leave the room.\n\nRachel gets up from her spot and sits down by Fernando’s pillow, asking, “You OK now?”\n\nFernando nods ever so slightly.\n\n“Rachel? I’m not finished with the healing spell, and need to be alone to finish it.” Wandaline turns to face her.\n\n“I’ll be quiet.” Rachel replies.\n\n“No. You need to be out of here, and later when I’m done, we’ll be downstairs.” Wandaline tells her.\n\nRachel hestitates in leaving, but eventually does. Wandaline mentally counts to ten after the room door has closed. She goes back looking at Fernando.\n\n“Despite the obvious, you feeling better?” Wandaline asks.\n\n“You made the headache go away?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Yeah.” Wandaline answers.\n\n“By shunting and reflowing the blood pressure elsewhere in my head?” Fernando asks.\n\n“Yes, but... hear me out.” Wandaline begins.\n\n“No. You know that could kill me. But you did it anyways.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“But, Fernando...” Wandaline almost pleads.\n\n“But what?” Fernando snaps at her.\n\n“Getting a headache now?” Wandaline asks.\n\nFernando has to think for a moment before answering, “No.”\n\n“Look, I do not know whether Dr. Leary or your specialists know, but there are two smaller blood vessels just before where you get your headaches and pass out when it swells. Those two other vessels were only feeding into your brain as they should but not enough to divert pressure as they are supposed too because they were partially clogged with blood clots. I removed those blood clots. Now they are free to feed your brain and divert pressure properly.” Wandaline explains, “You will stil get your headaches and still pass out after a certain point but it will take a lot more for that to happen.”\n\n“You had no right to do that.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“No. No I did not. But I did.” Wandaline tells him. She hestistates for a moment, and throws in before Fernando could reply, “Look. If any of the girls had my ability, they would have done the same thing. But because they don’t and I do, then I did. Get mad at me all you want. But I got questions to ask and I want you to answer them as honestly as possible.”\n\nFernando looks at her sternly as possible without answering.\n\nWandaline ignores him for the moment, “Considering your physiology as a flying squirrel, you could take a hit to the head that could kill me or the others. Has anyone ever hit you on the head?”\n\n“No. Not that I remember.” Fernando answers her.\n\n“You ever been beaten, child abused?” Wandaline asks.\n\n“Not that I remember. Those that happened, I fought back and it was against Jorge’s father.” Fernando answers.\n\n“And being a flying squirrel, you never crashed into a tree?” Wandaline asks.\n\n“A few trees, the ground, a couple of building. Its normal for a flying squirrel to crash, just like most birds, bats and other flying creatures when they learn to fly.” Fernando tells her.\n\n“Fernando. What bruises and clots I found in your head says to me that you may have been a beaten child.” Wandaline tells her.\n\n“I don’t give a fluffy tail about the past. I am about you going into my head and changing any wiring or plumbing that could alter my persona, which you just did.” Fernando tells her.\n\nWandaline was awe strucked at what he said to her.\n\n“Now before I forget who I am... please leave the room. I do not want to be bothered by you or anyone else for now for the time being.”Fernando tells her further, “Now leave. I wont be asking any more.”\n\nIt takes a minute or so for Wandaline to compose herself enough to get up before taking a couple of steps to the door. She then takes running steps out of the room, she can be heard sobbing as she runs down the stairs as the room door slowly closes.\n\nFernando sits up after the door lock is heard latching in place. He finds himself naked under the blanket, and immediately takes to gathering his clothes to put on. It only takes a few moments for him to get dressed. Looking out the window, Fernando can see most of the girls outside in the back yard. They were talking but he could not listen with the windows closed, nor did he wanted to open them so he could hear.\n\nHe takes his glasses and cane, putting the folded cane up againt his armpit. Though the house has been empty before, it seemed strangely quiet at the moment to him. The walk down the stairs to the front door was uneventful though he was expecting to be pounced on for some reason. The same with him walking out on the yard, until he reaches the fence at the far right of the property.\n\n“So there you are.” A familiar voice let itself known to him.\n\n“So what of it, Lucy. I got a headache and not in the partying mood.” Fernando tells him.\n\n“You won’t be much for anything when we get through with you.” Another voice says to him.\n\n“I see you brought the gang here.” Fernando says to Lucy, “There’s free for all, except for you Rodriguez. There’s a ten dollar per meal surcharge for over eaters like you. Its to make sure that you don’t eat the whole damn place.”\n\n“Ha Ha. Funny.” Rodriguez tells him, throwing in, “I don’t believe that all this whole spread is for a sister rapist.”\n\n“No, it is not.” Fernando begins, then abruptly lets out, “Wait a minute. What was that?”\n\nLaura Squirrel walks up to the fence, passing Cynthia and the others. “We do not take lightly to rapists.”\n\n“OK. Explain what you know if anything.” Fernando asks.\n\nCynthia steps up behind Laura, “About two weeks ago there was a fight where a squirrel girl named Rachel had claimed that she was raped. Since you are the only male in this house, then you had raped her.”\n\n“So why are you all bothering me now when you had your chances on the past days?” Fernando asks them.\n\n“We did not get a chance, until now.” Edna makes herself known as she steps next to Lucy by the fence.\n\n“Then how about you speak to the girls. They are in the back yard.” Fernando tells them before stepping towards the gate. He opens the gate for them as they walked in.\n\nRodriguez reaches over to Fernando and grabs him by the shoulder, it was immediately followed by a fist that Fernando barely manages to elude, letting one 90 percent of its energy to be wasted but still get hit by its remaining 10 percent. He drops his cane from where he had it under his arm. The adults turn to see what was going on, only to see Fernando quickly recover from inside the yard, taking his cane with him as he takes a driving step into Rodriguez’s mid-section, lifting him up and taking him to the middle of the street. Rodriguez manages to put his foot against the asphalt of the street and fall back, turning his massive tail to give Fernando a hard swat with it. Fernando is sent back several feet back to near the curb.\n\nThey both get up, Rodriguez charges at him, hitting him hard despite Fernando using his feet to hold up against the curb. He hits Fernando across his face, knocking his glasses off. But it was enough for Fernando to grab Rodriguez’s arm by the wrist when it has ended its travel. Few knew what was next, as their voices yell “NO!” but it was too late. Fernando had pulled hard against Rodriguez’s wrist and slammed his free hand into the back of the elbow, breaking Rodriguez’s arm at that point.\n\nRodriguez howls from the pain despite Fernando grabing a fist full off hair from the back of his head and slams his face onto the asphalt. For a moment there was nothing but a deafening silence as all eyes now point to him. His grandmother calls to him as the patter of feet from the girls, neighbors and police run to his direction. Instead Fernando gathers this things and takes a couple of running/jumping steps before opening his wings and disappearing above the street lamps glow in flight.\n\nDr. Leary tries to take a running jump into flight but gets her tail grabbed by Grandmother. She also has Mrs. Gonzalez by her tail as well. “Niether one of you are going to followhim. Now get into the house. I’ll go get the girls.”\n\nIt did not take long for Grandmother to get the girls, along with Lucy and those with her, into the living room. In the background an ambulance is heard to take Rodriguez to the hospital. She looks at Lucy sternly.\n\n“Who is that alligator that attacked my grandson!” Grandmother almost yells at Lucy in an almost perfect English.\n\n“Rodriguez did not attacked Fernando!” Lucy tells her.\n\n“Miss. We were there to see it. Rodriguez or what ever his name is gave the first hit across Fernando’s jaw.” Dr. Leary tells her.\n\nSenator Mendez and Mayor Cuadrado step into the house.\n\n“I told the media to respect the place and local area so they wont be bothering us.” Mayor Cuadrado tells Grandmother.\n\n“What happened, did that alligator attacked Fernando or did Fernando threw the first punch?” Senator Mendez asks.\n\n“That alligator punched Fernando in the face first.” Grandmother tells her in English.\n\n“Dona Maria, you speak English?” Senator Mendez asks.\n\n“Always did. Since the last great war where I learned it. As my native tongue I prefer Spanish and unless I have too speak English, I will only speak Spanish.”Grandmother answers her sternly.\n\nThis made Edna and Edward react in uncertainty with Edna yelling, “But you were disrespectful to dad!”\n\n“Look miss. Your father disrespected me first by calling me a young babe and claiming he would share his cheese with me. He better go back back to school and learn real Spanish.” Grandmother tells her, then throws at her, “Why would that alligator attack my grandson.”\n\n“I don’t know!” Edna answers.\n\n“Why are you hiding a rapist?” Laura lets out.\n\nThe adults turn to face her, with most saying to themselves, “What?”\n\n“Yes, Fernando raped his sister. We were there for what happened afterwards!” Cynthia points at Rachel.\n\n“Fernando did not raped me!” Rachel lets out loud.\n\n“But he’s the only male in the house!” Cynthia points out loudly.\n\n“Something went wrong with the spell.” Mrs. Gonzalez lets out to herself but heard by most.\n\n“Spell?” Mayor Cuadrado asks.\n\n“Jorge. Step up for all to see.” Grandmother tells Jorgina-Daisy. Jorge does as she was told. “Meet your rapist.” Grandmother tells her.\n\n“No way!” Most who don’t know say, with few saying, “But she’s a girl!”\n\n“Mrs. Gonzalez, turn him back to show them.” Grandmother tells her. With a wave of her hand, Jorgina-Daisy is turned back into Jorge. Grandmother looks at Lucy and her friends sternly, “There is your rapist. Turned into a girl as his punishment to live the fears we live in as females until he understands that fear. Now turn him back.” Mrs. Gonzales waves her hand, and Jorge is turned back into Jorgina-Daisy. Grandmother continues, “You now know and you have brought yourselves here to disrupt this party and assault my grandson? You are all lucky that he does not come back and beat you as you all deserve. Now get out of my house and have your parents here before I go knocking on doors.”\n\n“You aint doing a thing!” Lucy tells Grandmother, getting the attention of all the adults in the room.\n\n“Miss. I don’t know who you are but I am Poucefield Mayor Cuadrado, and I’m telling you that you are going to bring your parents to this respected member of the community to discuss this matter before I step outside and call my police protection to arrest you and the others here.” Mayor Cuadrado tells her.\n\n“Don’t be too hard on the girl.”Senator Mendez tells her.\n\n“Why? All I see is a gang here who one of their kind had assaulted one of the newer members of the community, and if he did not defend himself, he would be in the hospital instead of his attacker!” Mayor Cuadrado replies.\n\n“Rodriguez is in the hospital?!!” Lucy exclaims.\n\n“So this was a set up?” Mayor Cuadrado asks.\n\n“No!” most of them say.\n\n“For you to come here with your friends and have any and or all of your friends confront and attack somebody is a gang action. You can go to jail for acting like a gang in this town!” Mayor Cuadrado tells them. She then takes out her portable radio from her purse and calls to her police entourage captain, “Leo. Call up reinforcements. I’m going to need six officers to escort some children home and collect their intel. Also inform them that I will be visiting them in the upcoming days.”\n\n“Yes Ma’am.” A voice says from the tiny box in the mayor’s hand. The mayor returns to Cynthia and the others. \n\n“This is a shame, for don’t think I don’t know who you are for the most part.” Mayor Cuadrado begins, then points at each of them, “Cynthia, captain of the St. LoveJoy’s girl’s soccer team which you lead to the championships for the past four years. And Lucy, Cynthia’s assistant. And you, Laura Squirrel, captain of the St. Love Joy’s Cheerleading Squad and led them to the cheerleading championships just as often. And lets not forget about you, Edna, the soccer team goalie. Three of the best of the best Pouncefeild as to offer, acting like thugs against the new members of the community.”\n\n“We were not acting like thugs in a gang!” Lucy tells the mayor.\n\n“Laura demanded why are the adults hiding a rapist, and Cynthia pointed out Fernando to be that rapist. It as pointed out to you all that this boy turned girl as his punishment is the rapist, and I find it to be a most fitting punishment to give. But it still does not change the fact that you all came where to assert your own form of justice on the wrong person. That’s vigilantism, and that is as bad as acting as a gang and I am not going to have it in my town.” Mayor Cuadrado tell them, “You all owe Fernando an apology in the very least.”\n\nThe police captain arrives into the house with several of his men in tow. They all look at the mayor and her senator friend.\n\n“Take them home and tell their parents that they are to come here, as I will be, at 10 o’clock, to discuss with them about what happened here.” Mayor Cuadrado tells her officers and points out the children who needs to be escorted.\n\n“Come on, let’s go.” One of the officers tells them.\n\nEventually Lucy and her friends get up and are escorted out of the house by the police, leaving the captain behind. Once they leave, Grandmother and the others look at the remaining girls of Fernando’s little group.\n\n“This will be the last time I will tell you in English. Go outside and enjoy what is left of the night. We will deal with looking for Fernando and you are not to interfere. Now go.” Grandmother tells them. It takes time for them to look at each other and one by one leave the house through the rear door. A few moment after they leave, the adults look at each other. “No one is to go after Fernando no matter what happens.” Grandmother tells them without looking at their direction.\n\n“What if he destroys property out of emotional rage?” The police captain asks.\n\n“Fernando is not that kind of boy. He thinks before taking action and wont go doing anything stupid like that.” Senator Mendez tells him.\n\n“But...” the captain begins to say.\n\n“I will trust what these women have to say about the boy. Do not go after him.” Mayor Cuadrado tells him.\n\n“You may have too.” Dr. Leary inserts herself into the conversation.\n\n“What do you mean?” the others say except for Grandmother who tells her, “Stay out of this.”\n\n“Look. Fernando has a blood vessel in his brain that if it swells up he will pass out. If he flew away, then he’s out there passed out from it and be no danger to anyone. But if he passes out in the middle of the street, over the highway or high up in mid flight, he’s going to get hurt. As his doctor, we should go looking for him.” Dr. Leary explains.\n\n“I heard enough.” the police captain says.\n\n“If you find him, you are to bring him here.” Grandmother tells him.\n\n“If he is hurt or passed out, shouldn’t we take him to the hospital?” The police captain asks.\n\n“Unless he is severely hurt, bring him here. I will take care of him.” Dr. Leary tells the police captain. \n\n“Alright. I’ll see what can be done.” The police captain replies before leaving the house as he takes out his two-way radio from his belt to give instructions to his officers.\n\n“You two are not to go out to find him. I forbid it.” Grandmother tells Dr. Leary and Mrs. Gonzalez, then adds, “We have a party out there to attend to.”\n\n\n- - - - - - - - - - - - -\nEnd of Chapter 69\n- - - - - - - - - - - - -", "writing_bbcode_parsed": "Chapter 69: Into The Night.

Dr. Leary lets everybody off at Fernando’s house, leaving the SUV parked in front of the house as she went to the store for some refreshments. Fernando had everyone wait outside on the porch while Jorgina-Daisy and Rachel went inside for some board games. They would return with just a deck of cards. They spend the next couple of hours playing cards, even after the parents returned home. For some reason the parents begin to set up folding tables just outside the gates to their houses and begin to put food, paper plates, plastic utensils and other things on the tables as the sun sits above the horizon.

The younger girls walk up to Grandmother to ask questions as they look around.

“What’s going on?” Rachel asks Grandmother in Spanish.

“What does it look like, little one?” Grandmother answers in Spanish, “It’s the last day of summer, and like we did in New York, we are going to have a party.”

“Huh?” the younger girls gasp.

Wandaline’s mother puts her table next to Grandmother’s followed by a large covered roasting pot. Lifting the cover exposed a large roasted shoulder of feral beast. The two ladies glance it over and nod approvingly.

“New York is celebrating its last day and so should we.” Wandaline’s mother tells them, then looks at the older girls by the steps wondering what was going on. “Wandaline! Here And Now!” Her mother all but yells at her.

Wandaline puts her cards down and gets up from the steps, “Coming mother!”

She arrives to her mother’s side. “We got a few things to do.” Her mother tells her, “Let’s go.” Wandaline follows her mother to their home.

Mary and Tonya also gets called, as were Jeanie, Rachel R. and Francesca. Juanita, Cathy and Katherine soon get up and leave for their homes. Fernando waits by the stairs by himself.

The mothers of the girls add to the tables, food, and drinks by Grandmother’ table, creating a large service area. A black limo along with a security detail and a couple of news trucks pulls up to Grandmother’s house while the other nieghbors look out their windows. They can see Pouncefield’s Mayor Nefertiti Cuadrado and New York Senator Olga Mendez step out into view. Other police cars arrive and block off the street from both ends. Several  reporters step up to the mayor who parries their listening devices aside and steps up to the table.

[Conversation in Spanish unless noted.]

“Roast Beast?” Mayor Cuadrado asks.

“Roast Feral Beast. Mrs. Gonzalez made it.” Grandmother answers, pointing to Wandaline’s house.

“I see.” Mayor Cuadrado nods approvingly, then asking, “Empanadas?”

“Of course. Meat, vegeterian, and nut dessert empanadas.” Grandmother answers pointing them out, adding, “And we got rice, soup, salad, beans, cakes, drinks and other things are coming.”

“Good to hear. Pouncefeild needs something like this.” Mayor Cuadrado replies.

“Our New York community does this every year.” Senator Mendez says.

Mayor Cuadrado nods her head slightly before changing the subject, “And where is your home?”

Senator Mendez leads her away from the table, heading down the street, “Its over there. As you see its not finished yet, but it should be done in a day or two and I’ll be moving in after that.”

[Conversation returns to English.]

Juanita, Mary and Cathy’s mothers arrive with more food fixings, including collard greens and baked macaroni and cheese. All this activity does not go unnoticed as Cythina, Pokeinfo, Edna and Edward step out of the fox’s home. They slowly walk over to Grandmother’s house, knowing how uncivil in their eyes she can be. They stand at the hinge side of the gate with Rachel and Jorgina-Daisy on the other side of the fence.

“What is going on here?” Cynthia asks before any of the others could.

“We are going to have a party.” Jorgina-Daisy tells her.

“A party?” They all ask.

“Wait a minute, Jorge.” Rachel tell her, before turning to Cynthia and the others, “It’s a block party we do every year in New York City.”

“But this is not New York.” Pokeinfo throws in.

Followed by Edna, “Are we invited?”

“So?” Rachel looks at Pokeinfo, and then at Edna, “You want in? Its open to everyone, but you need to get your parents to set up a table with food and drinks on it. You can set it up here or where you live.”

Edna runs straight for home with Edwards after her yelling, “Edna! Wait! I Don’t Think They Would Allow It!”

Cynthia and Pokeinfo look at them disappear behind the house’s door and then turn to Rachel. Cynthia states to her, “We don’t live on this block.”

“You’re welcomed to come, and bring your parents. But we are going to need help in cleaning up when its over. Think you can do that?” Mayor Cuadrado says and asks as she returns with Senator Mendez.

“You should be running and get your friends and their parents over here. This is not going to last forever.”Senator Mendez throws in.

“Really?” Pokeinfo asks.

“Yes. Really.” Mayor Cuadrado tell him.

As Pokeinfo runs to his home and get his friends with Cynthia just behind him, Senator Mendez asks, “Dona Maria, is this enough for everyone?”

“I have another roast in the oven, and the others have more food. We all planned it out during the day.” Grandmother answers.

“What about your boy?” Senator Mendez asks.

“He’ll be fine. I’ll tell the girls to keep him busy and happy so he wont go to bed early.” Grandmother answers.

“And I’ll make my notice on the 10o’clock news when its time.” Mayor Cuadrado adds.

The Spanish is broken when Juanita, Mary and Cathy’s mothers arrive with piñatas in their arms, asking which one is first and where it goes in English. Grandmother answers by pointing at the traditional donkey piñata and at the tree at the edge of the curb. The others get hidden away behind the fence that surrounds the house. She then calls to Fernando.

“Fernando! Help the ladies set up piñata on the tree!” Grandmother yells across the distance to him in Spanish.

Fernando relunctantly gets up from his spot and walks over to the gate. Though some who knows him thought he was going to fly to the top of the tree instead takes the piñata and climbs the tree with it. Once on the largest branch, he sets up the rope and piñata on it before climbing down the tree.

Fernando sits back down at the steps. Rachel and Jorgina-Daisy walk after him when he passes them.

“You OK?” Rachel asks.

“I’m just tired.” Fernando replies.

“Maybe you would some tight pussy?” Jorgina-Daisy asks him, almost taunting him but not meaning to do so.

“Jorge...” Fernando tells her.

“What?”Jorgina-Daisy replies in question.

“We need to talk.” Fernando tells her before turning to Rachel, “In private.”

“I’ll be back.’ Rachel says before walking away.

“Jorge. Sit.” Fernando says as he points to the step next to him.

Jorgina-Daisy does as she was told, “What is it?”

“I’ll tell you bluntly. But I do not need you to freak out.” Fernando begins.

“Tell me what?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.

“When you were a boy, while with the gang, did you stuck your dick into Tonya?” Fernando asks point blank.

“Yeah. We all fucked that little tight pussy of hers all the time. Just like we did with the other girls. What of it?” Jorgina-Daisy says and asks.

“Tonya registered Positive on her SIV Test.” Fernando tells her. Jorgina-Daisy looks at her brother with gasp. “You know what that means?” Jorgina-Daisy nods her head slowly. “Look. Tomarrow, Dr. Leary will have you tested and if you test positive, then you will go under treatment to cure you.”

Jorgina-Daisy just sighs.

“Look, Jorge. If there is a way for a cure, I will find it for you.” Fernando tells her, “This is not to spoil your fun for tonight, but to find out the truth. Understand that. I want you to have fun tonight, and tomarrow we’ll see Dr. Leary and get you tested and treated.”

“Yeah...” Jorgina-Daisy says.

“Jorge, I got  headache. I want you to have fun and make sure Rachel does too. I’m going to take a pill and go to bed. At least do me the favor of beating the shit out that piñata for me.”Fernando tells her.

“Alright...” Jorgina-Daisy says, wanting to say more but doesn’t. Fernando notices her hesitation.

“What’s up?” Fernando asks her.

“Nothing...” Jorgina-Daisy begins, then asks, “What if as a girl I don’t have SIV?”

“We wont know until we get you tested. Even then I need to talk to Wandaine’s mother anyways.” Fernando explains.

“What about?”Jorgina-Daisy asks.

“Personal stuff. Mostly of you, Tonya and the other girls.” Fernando answers, “Eventually I will need to with everyone’s parents.”

“You don’t need to talk to most of their mom’s.” Jorgina-Daisy replies.

“What do you mean by that?” Fernando asks.

“When I was turned into a girl, they were there- Wandaline’s mother, Grace’s mother, Rachel R. and Francis’ mother and Dr. Leary. Francis try to put blame on Rachel R. by saying because her sister is having sex with you, so should she with me. Then her mother went off on her, where they all agreed that if you’re screwing their girls, its fine with them but not fine if I was going it when I was a boy.” Jorgina-Daisy explains.

“You know why they said all that?” Fernando asks.

“Because you have good grades and a summer job and that you would support them if they got pregnant and that I don’t have any of those things.”Jorgina-Daisy explains.

“I see.” Fernando says to himself. He then looks at her, “Well, this is your second chance in life. Don’t waste it.”

After a moment of silence on both sides, Fernando slowly gets up and steps into the house. He manages to get passed the step before Jorgina-Daisy stops the door from closing and enters the house behind him. She stands with the door closed behind her with her hands behind her.

“Fernando?” Jorgina-Diasy calls to him.

He stops and turns around to face her, “Yes, Jorge?”

“So... because I might have SIV, you’re not going to rape me?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.

“What kind of question is that?” Fernando asks.

“Just answer that question, please?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.

“Like I told you, maybe I should, but I wont. Not now for you’re expecting it and it would not be rape if you laid there and enjoyed it. And now that you might have SIV, it becomes less of a chance of happening. But that was never the point.” Fernando tells her as he steps up to her. He looks down at her as she looks up at him, he slowly puts his hand behind her and softly squeezes on her butt cheek. She shutters nervously and leans against him as he strokes her nether regions from behind, “You got a lot learn. Being a girl is a lot more than being a boy with a pussy between your legs instead of a dick.”

“Don’t you think I know that?” Jorgina-Daisy asks arching herself just slightly to get a better feel of her brother’s hard bulge against her groin.

“What would you do if I raped you and you got pregnant?” Fernando asks her sternly.

She bites on her lower lip for a moment before answering, “I cant get pregnant yet. Its not mating season and I have not had my period yet.”

“That’s besides the point. Getting raped should be your number one fear and getting pregnant when you don’t want it to happen should be number two. You should be thinking about being sexually responsible before taking such a chance. But you’re thinking like a boy, but instead of getting your dick hard, your pussy is getting wet and you think that because of it you should be fucking right now. You need to think like a girl, and what you have between your legs should be treated like gold, only to be given to that special somebody, and not just anybody because you’re freaking horny. Do that and you become a slut.” He tells her.

Jorgina-Daisy nods before takng a step back. Fernando’s hand slides off her rear and then around her hip towards her front, where she catches it and move it to her crotch, pressing his hand against her. After a second or so of lightly humping her crotch against his fingers, Fernando manages to pull his hand from her grasp.

“Jorge, you need to stop.” Fernando tells her as he walks to the kitchen.

Jorgina-Daisy follows him to the kitchen and stops before the refrigerator. Fernando takes a glass of water upstairs with him, needing to step around his new little sister who continues to follow him up the stairs. Once in his room, Fernando goes into his desk and takes a small container of pills, taking one of the pills into his mouth followed by a swig of water chasing it. He leans his butt against his desk, seeing Jorgina-Daisy at the doorway not entering his room.

“Get in here.” Fernando tells him in a stern tone while putting his folded cane on the desk behind him.

Jorgina-Daisy slowly steps into the room and takes Fernando’s hand as he reaches out to her. She leans up against him, pressing her crotch against his as she looks up at her older brother before putting one foot outside of his. He puts his hand behind her at the small of her back. She lets out a sigh before resting the side of her face on his chest.

“What am I going to do with you?” Fernando asks himself.

“I don’t know.” Jorgina-Daisy answers as she looks up at him.

“I was taking to myself.” Fernando tells her.

“It does not matter either way because I do not know either.” Jorgina-Daisy tells him.

“It does matter.” Fernando replies.

“Why?” Jorgina-Daisy asks.

“Think like a girl, will ya?”Fernando tells her sternly.

“I am.” Jorgina-Daisy replies just as sternly. She takes a step back, taking his hand and try to pull him to his bed. He only takes a couple of steps before managing to get her grasp off him. She takes a few steps backwards and sits hard on his bed with her legs open. Jorgina-Daisy pulls up her skirt and pulls her panty crotch to the side showing Fernando all she had to offer. “Look. That’s me, a girl! We talked about it when you put your finger in me down there, all thoughts of aggression and hate I had against you as a boy are gone!” She then puts her thumb and finger tips together and taps them against her chest, “Minus the hate I once had for you, what feelings I have for you now are here, like before but more so! It hurts to know that in your head there is a timebomb that can take you away and I cant go nothing about it!”

“Then shut up and cover yourself.” Fernando tells her, “I swear, Jorge. If we end up in a sexual relationship, it will be because it happened on its own and not one pushing the other for a quickie, and I know of you planning on getting me in trouble if I do something to you.”

Jorgina-Daisy slowly covers herself up and folds her hands between her knees, looking down at her feet, “How you know?”

“The girls told me that you would. Because the way you are acting says to them that you have something planned. They are girls and they know when a girl is up to something. And they made Francis fess up.” Fernando tells her.

“That bitch.” Jorgina-Daisy says to herself, though Fernando can hear it.

“Look, I can smell that you are wanting it from right here. So when Dr. Leary examines that vagina of yours and sees that there is no brusing in there because you were lubed up while we did it, she’s going to report to the police that you were not raped and you get in trouble for lying to the police.” Fernando tells her, adding, “But that’s not the point, is it?”

Jorgina-Daisy nods for the moment.

“You’re horny as hell right now and you do not know what to do right now. In fact, if you were Rachel, I would be fucking her right now. But because you might be SIV Infected, and other things that are going on, its not going to happen between you and I. I will do my best for you as your brother, but I want you back as a brother. How would you like it if you were changed back as a boy and you had the memories of me doing you lovely?” Fernando says and asks.

“I don’t want to be changed back as a boy.”Jorgina-Daisy holds back from yelling.

“And why not?” Fernando asks.

“Because...” Jorgina-Daisy begins. After a moment of silence, “I do not want to return to hating  you, to be in competition with you for everything we have. To fight you knowing that it may kill you. I don’t want that. Things have been easier now that I am a girl.”

“And what about you, me and sex?” Fernando answers.

Jorgina-Daisy lets out a sigh, “Don’t get me wrong, but after all this craziness is over, I might kick Rachel out of your bed. Its not that I want too or have too, but as your sister I would need too. At least to show you how much I do love you and maybe say sorry for all the mean things I did to you in life.”

“You don’t have to do anything you do not want too.” Fernando tells her.

Jorgina-Daisy looks up at her brother, “I do want too.”

“And how would I know you would not set me up in a rape case?” Fernando asks sternly.

“I have not told anybody that you molested me and put your finger in me.” Jorgina-Daisy answers him.

“Francis says you told her.” Fernando points out.

“Uhm... she’s my friend and girlfriend when I was a boy.” Jorgina-Daisy replies nervously.

“That’s no excuse, Jorge.” Fernando begins to tell her, “We all have a committed trust not to hurt one another. Not just physically and also with words. If the girls had not spoke to Francis, who knows what she would have done with the details?”

“I’m sorry.” Jorgina-Daisy says to him holding back tears.

“Don’t say you’re sorry with words. Do it with actions, and maybe you will being to learn wha t it is to be a girl. Mind you, you only been a girl for a couple of days, everyone aound you have been girls for life. You got a lot to learn.” Fernando tells her, adding after a few moments of silence, “Now go downstairs. I got to lie down for a while.”

“Then I’ll lie down with you.” Jorgina-Daist tells him.

“You’re leaving even if I have to grab your fluffy tail and drop you out of the window! Now leave, I want to be left alone.” Fernando tells her sternly.

“But...” Jorgina-Daisy tries to complain.

“No Butts, Jorge.” Fernando tells her.

“You heard him, Jorge! Leave.” Rachel walks in with a covered paper plate of food in her hands, she puts it on the desk for a moment, “Grandma wants to see you downstairs anyway.”

Miffed at the whole situation, Jorgina-Dasiy stammers out of the room. Once they hear her stomp down the stairs, Rachel steps up to Fernando.

“Grandma wants you to eat and then be downstairs.”Rachel tells him.

“I got a headache. You mind?” Fernando tells her.

“Its either me or Grandma. So eat up now and so we can sit down where its quiet outside.” Rachel points out to him. “Its rice, beans, some roast beast, and a few other things she threw in there. Oh yeah... and a can of soda.” She explains to him before pulling out a can of soda from her skirt’s pocket, placing it by the food.

Not seeing this as a winning situation, Fernando sits down and begins to eat after moving his Mac keyboard away on his desk. Rachel leans against his chair and picks at his food. Though it does not bother Fernando, he asks, “Haven’t you eaten?”

“I told grandma that I would share this with you.” Rachel answers.

“Anything else you willing to share?” Fernando asks her.

“If you’re talking about sex, then maybe but only if we have a private moment in a private space where we can do it.” Rachel answers.

“How about here and now?” Fernando asks.

“Not possible.” Rachel answers, “The others will be coming in to drag you downstairs if you do not come down on your own.”

“Well, maybe they can join in after I do you.” Fernando replies.

“That all you think about, sex, sex, sex!” Rachel sounding like she was complaining.

“If you girls weren’t giving it to me so much, I would not be wanting it so much.” Fernando tells her.

“I was joking...” Rachel tells him. She lets out an “EEK!” as he quickly pulls her on his lap. She lands on his lap with her legs open and her skirt crumpled up exposing her panties into view.

Holding her down, Fernando puts his nose to hers, “I don’t joke around.” He then presses his lips onto hers, for the moment she struggles but relaxes and allowing the passion between them increase slowly.

Eventually she pushes him off her breaking their kiss, “Alright, you won.”

“There is nothing to win but what we have here and now.” Fernando replies.

“Then stop.” Rachel statements to him.

“Why?” Fernando asks as he gets closer to her.

“Because you might get what you want, that why.” Rachel complains.

“What if I want is just a kiss?” Fernando asks.

“With you it’s always starts out with a kiss and then ends when you’re pulling your cock out of me after you filled me with your cum!” Rachel points out.

“Well, you do not say no. That’s why.” Fernando replies.

“I was not complaining.” Rachel tells him, “I’m just merely stating a fact that if we continue, that is where we will soon end up.”

“So if you’re not complaining...” Fernando begins to tell her, before lowering his lips to her. Instead, Rachel turns her head away, allowing Fernando to kiss down her jaw line along the most sensitive places of her face.

Rachel moans softly as she lets it happen for a second. She then pushes him off her, breathing heavy for air, “That’s enough for now.”

Fernando looks at her for the moment, “So you’re saying no?”

“Yes, I’m saying no. At least for now. Maybe later on I can thow you some nookie, definitely when we go to bed later tonight.” Rachel says to him as she sit up on his lap. She looks around and then at him, “Mind backing up the chair so I can get off?” Fernando backs up slowly and slightly before picking up his little adopted sister in his arms, despite her complaints, “ Fernando... what are you doing?”

He takes her to his bed and puts her on it and then pins her down by the shoulders. She shakes her head no in protest as what might happen, though she was as interested as he could be. But to her surprise he gives her a peck on the lips before looking down at her. “Thanks.” He says as he slowly lets her go.

“What for?” Rachel asks.

“For everything up to now. For being there even though I did not want you there. For doing all those things I needed when I could not for myself. Those sort of things.” Fernando answers her as he sits up next to her.

Rachel manages to sit up next to him, giving him one final look before returning the kiss to him.

“And what’s that for?” Fernando asks her.

“Same reasons as you stated.” Rachel tells him before hopping off the bed. She walks over to his desk where she covers and picks up the remains of the meal, “I’ll throw this out but Grandma wants you down stairs so be there. Then we’ll look for a quiet place for your headache.”

“OK.” Fernando replies as she walks out the door.

There is a slight commotion outside the room before the door opens. Wandaline’s mother steps through the door and walks into the room.

“You’re not feeling well?” Ms Gonzalez asks in a tone of voice that seems to sooth the pains away.

“I think you know I never am. Mrs. Gonzalez.” Fernando answers.

“One day all those pains will stop and you will be more than a man for any women.” Ms Gonzalez says to him.

“Huh?” Fernando asks.

“Let me ask you this, Fernando. How is Wandaline as a lover?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks.

“Uhm... we never went that far, Mrs. Gonzalez.” Fernando nerviously answers.

“Come now. I know you and my daughter have sex as often as you two can get it. And its not she told me, a mother knows these things about her girl and I especially know of my Wandaline.”Mrs Gonzalez says in a non-threatening tone, “And I know you two did when I revived you all your memories came flooding out at me. I’m sure you two did last night, that I don’t mind. But that is not the point.”

“Then what is?” Fernando asks holding back the jitterness in his voice.

“Fernando, If I was Wandaline’s age right now, like her sister or cousin, she would be facing a losing battle from me in getting to you as often as possible. Now, because of you, Wandaline’s outlook in life has brightened up. She is no longer a sad, shy little girl she once was, and her grades had improved dramtically. For the first time, she has a friend in you, and more than a friend as you two occasionally share each other’s bodies. Why do you think I leave you two alone for so long when you visit her?” Mrs. Gonzalez tells him, “The point is, is she living up to your expectations of being a girlfriend and a lover?”

“Its not that, Mrs. Gonzalez. I’m not forcing her to do anything she does not want to do with me. She is a lovely girl and a great friend.” Fernando begins to explain.

“Don’t pussy foot around with me. Is she a good lover to you or not?” Mrs. Gonzalez almost forces the point on him.

“OK. She is. She is a great friend and an excellent lover. And I would do anything for her that she asks me to do.” Fernando explains.

“I see. And you would do anything for her that she asks, why?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks.

“Because she is a friend and I love her as I’m sure she does me. The proof she does I think is that I sense she returns a lot more than what I give her.” Fernando explains.

“I will let you know that she would do anything for you though she would not tell you that she would. But the problem is, is she able to compete against the other girls? Compared to Rachel R. or Grace or the others, even your adopted sister, we, I know you screw daily, all who can maybe do more in terms of being a lover to you, can Wandaline compete with them?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks.

“I’m not demanding Wandaline or any of the others to drop their panties for me because I want some fast and quick action, because I don’t. I’m not forcing anyone for just sex, let alone forcing any of them to do anything. I just want what can be given an if Wandaline can only give me a kiss and nothing else, I would accept is as a treasure for life.” Fernando tries to answer Mrs. Gonzalez’s question, then asks one of his own, “Something wrong with Wandaline?”

“Nothing that the ordinary doubts and pains a girl goes through everyday. That’s all.” Mrs. Gonzalez answers.

“Doubts and pains? About what?” Fernando asks.

“Typical girl stuff. Like I said all along, how does she stack up against the others, that puts doubt and pain in her mind that she is not good enough for you or not adding up to meet your expectations.” Mrs. Gonzalez answers.

“I don’t know where she got that. Wandaline is more than good enough and more than capable to meet my expectations.” Fernando lets out to Mrs. Gonzalez before letting out a sigh. “Wandaline should not be comparing herself to the other girls and be in competition with them.  I am not looking for daily orgies  or wanton free for all sex all the time with any of them.”

“But you have that ticking time bomb in your head that can explode and take you with it because of the stress in your everyday life. We all know about it and we know that the pressure has to go down some how. We also know that you would not be mean to the girls, be abusive to them and if something were to happen that you would stand up to the plate and take on the responsibility of your actions.” Mrs. Gonzalez tells him.

“My actions? They are the one putting the moves on me!” Fernando points out to her.

“You get my little Wandaline pregnant and you will have to deal with me.” Mrs. Gonzalez points out to him.

“I get Wandaline pregnant, I will what is right for her and not for me. I will do what I can to help her and if I have to be a father to our baby and a husband to her.  Now don’t tell me what I need to do, and this goes to all the girls!” Fernando lets her have it. He then tenses up for a moment, putting his hand to his temple, clenching his teeth tightly. A tiny droplet of blood collects under his nostril.

Mrs. Gonzalez lookst at him angrily and then realizes something was wrong. “You alright?” she asks with concerns.

“Just leave. Please.” Fernando tells her in a shakey voice that verifies his appearance.

“I’ll go get Dr. Leary for you.” Mrs. Gonzalez says to him before getting up.

“No!” Fernando holds back from yelling at her, then growls at her, “I’ll be fine.”

Mrs. Gonzalez nods her head slightly before stepping out of the room. Instead of running, she seems to float a couple of inches off the floor and zooms through the house. Fernando makes his way to the bed and lays on his back, looking up at Rachel’s top bunk. He takes off his glasses, letting them fall onto the floor before closing his eyes.

Mrs. Gonzalez makes her way to Dr. Leary who was with Grandmother serving food to those who entered the party area. Her actions do not go unnoticed as Wandaline looks from where the girls were by the tree in the front yard. She gets Rachel attention as the older women make a fast pace to the house.

“Rachel, I need to talk to you in private.” Wandaline tells her as she pulls on Rachel’s arm.

Rachel protests for the moment, but in looking around and seeing Grandmother not in the immediate area and Wandaline pointing to the closing door, they make their way quickly to the house. They run up the stairs as they hear the bedroom door close. They enter the room after running up the stairs with Rachel taking the lead.

[Conversation in Spanish unless noted.]

“Why were you to be stressing my grandson?” Grandmother almost scolds Mrs. Gonzalez, then she and the others turn to face the girls. “What are you two doing here?”

“This is my room.” Rachel almost challenges her elder, “Now what happened to Fernando?”

“Leave the room.” Grandmother tells her sternly.

“Mother?” Wandaline asks almost challenging her parent.

“I just asked him a couple of questions before he passed out.” Mrs. Gonzalez answers without realiing what she had said.

Dr. Leary takes off her stethoscope off Fernando’s chest and covers him with his blanket, “He’ll be fine after a day or two of rest.” She then turns to Mrs. Gonzalez, “You have no right to be asking Fernando any questions, especially those that might stress him like this.”

“Mother...” Wandaline calls to her sternly.

“Don’t ‘Mother’ Me...” Mrs. Gonzalez tells her daughter, “I was doing it for you!”

“Then don’t do anything for me!” Wandaline tells her as she makes her way to the bed and sits in front of Dr. Leary.

“What are you doing?” Mrs. Gonzalez asks sternly.

“Something to help since you’re in no condition to do so.” Wandaline almost spits at her mother.  Her mother grabs her by the closest arm to pull her away from him as she tries to put her hands at his temples. Grandmother grabs Mrs. Gonzalez by the elbow of her arm.

“Let the child do the right thing.” Grandmother tells her.

They look at each other for a while before Mrs. Gonzalez let her daughter go. After a moment Wandaline  goes back to to putting her hands at Fernando’ temples. She concentrates hards on his being, acting on it and monitoring it at the same time. If the room was darker, they would able to see the space between her hands and his head glow as she transfers part of her own healing powers onto his. Constantly checking on him, the process was drawn out over a minute that seemed to have lasted a lot longer. Soon the glow subsides to nothingness and she pulls her hands away from him.

Fernando slowly opens his eyes and suddenly shuts them.

“Welcome back to the world of the living.” Wandaline tells him.

Fernando just sighs for a moment.

“We’re going to have a long talk about this...” Mrs. Gonzalez tells her daughter.

“You are not going to punish this girl.” Grandmother tells her.

For a moment they exchange meanful stares.

“How about we go back to the party before they run out of Roast Beast.” Dr. Leary tells them. That seemed to get their attention, as they nodded before getting up and leave the room.

Rachel gets up from her spot and sits down by Fernando’s pillow, asking, “You OK now?”

Fernando nods ever so slightly.

“Rachel? I’m not finished with the healing spell, and need to be alone to finish it.” Wandaline turns to face her.

“I’ll be quiet.” Rachel replies.

“No. You need to be out of here, and later when I’m done, we’ll be downstairs.” Wandaline tells her.

Rachel hestitates in leaving, but eventually does. Wandaline mentally counts to ten after the room door has closed. She goes back looking at Fernando.

“Despite the obvious, you feeling better?” Wandaline asks.

“You made the headache go away?” Fernando asks.

“Yeah.” Wandaline answers.

“By shunting and reflowing the blood pressure elsewhere in my head?” Fernando asks.

“Yes, but... hear me out.” Wandaline begins.

“No. You know that could kill me. But you did it anyways.” Fernando tells her.

“But, Fernando...” Wandaline almost pleads.

“But what?” Fernando snaps at her.

“Getting a headache now?” Wandaline asks.

Fernando has to think for a moment before answering, “No.”

“Look, I do not know whether Dr. Leary or your specialists know, but there are two smaller blood vessels just before where you get your headaches and pass out when it swells. Those two other vessels were only feeding into your brain as they should but not enough to divert pressure as they are supposed too because they were partially clogged with blood clots. I removed those blood clots. Now they are free to feed your brain and divert pressure properly.” Wandaline explains, “You will stil get your headaches and still pass out after a certain point but it will take a lot more for that to happen.”

“You had no right to do that.” Fernando tells her.

“No. No I did not. But I did.” Wandaline tells him. She hestistates for a moment, and throws in before Fernando could reply, “Look. If any of the girls had my ability, they would have done the same thing. But because they don’t and I do, then I did. Get mad at me all you want. But I got questions to ask and I want you to answer them as honestly as possible.”

Fernando looks at her sternly as possible without answering.

Wandaline ignores him for the moment, “Considering your physiology as a flying squirrel, you could take a hit to the head that could kill me or the others. Has anyone ever hit you on the head?”

“No. Not that I remember.” Fernando answers her.

“You ever been beaten,  child abused?” Wandaline asks.

“Not that I remember. Those that happened, I fought back and it was against Jorge’s father.” Fernando answers.

“And being a flying squirrel, you never crashed into a tree?” Wandaline asks.

“A few trees, the ground, a couple of building. Its normal for a flying squirrel to crash, just like most birds, bats and other flying creatures when they learn to fly.” Fernando tells her.

“Fernando. What bruises and clots I found in your head says to me that you may have been a beaten child.” Wandaline tells her.

“I don’t give a fluffy tail about the past. I am about you going into my head and changing any wiring or plumbing that could alter my persona, which you just did.” Fernando tells her.

Wandaline was awe strucked at what he said to her.

“Now before I forget who I am... please leave the room. I do not want to be bothered by you or anyone else for now for the time being.”Fernando tells her further, “Now leave. I wont be asking any more.”

It takes a minute or so for Wandaline to compose herself enough to get up before taking a couple of steps to the door. She then takes running steps out of the room, she can be heard sobbing as she runs down the stairs as the room door slowly closes.

Fernando sits up after the door lock is heard latching in place. He finds himself naked under the blanket, and immediately takes to gathering his clothes to put on. It only takes a few moments for him to get dressed. Looking out the window, Fernando can see most of the girls outside in the back yard. They were talking but he could not listen with the windows closed, nor did he wanted to open them so he could hear.

He takes his glasses and cane, putting the folded cane up againt his armpit. Though the house has been empty before, it seemed strangely quiet at the moment to him. The walk down the stairs to the front door was uneventful though he was expecting to be pounced on for some reason. The same with him walking out on the yard, until he reaches the fence at the far right of the property.

“So there you are.” A familiar voice let itself known to him.

“So what of it, Lucy. I got a headache and not in the partying mood.” Fernando tells him.

“You won’t be much for anything when we get through with you.” Another voice says to him.

“I see you brought the gang here.” Fernando says to Lucy, “There’s free for all, except for you Rodriguez. There’s a ten dollar per meal surcharge for over eaters like you. Its to make sure that you don’t eat the whole damn place.”

“Ha Ha. Funny.” Rodriguez tells him, throwing in, “I don’t believe that all this whole spread is for a sister rapist.”

“No, it is not.” Fernando begins, then abruptly lets out, “Wait a minute. What was that?”

Laura Squirrel walks up to the fence, passing Cynthia and the others. “We do not take lightly to rapists.”

“OK. Explain what you know if anything.” Fernando asks.

Cynthia steps up behind Laura, “About two weeks ago there was a fight where a squirrel girl named Rachel had claimed that she was raped. Since you are the only male in this house, then you had raped her.”

“So why are you all bothering me now when you had your chances on the past days?” Fernando asks them.

“We did not get a chance, until now.” Edna makes herself known as she steps next to Lucy by the fence.

“Then how about you speak to the girls. They are in the back yard.” Fernando tells them before stepping towards the gate. He opens the gate for them as they walked in.

Rodriguez reaches over to Fernando and grabs him by the shoulder, it was immediately followed by a fist that Fernando barely manages to elude, letting one 90 percent of its energy to be wasted but still get hit by its remaining 10 percent.  He drops his cane from where he had it under his arm. The adults turn to see what was going on, only to see Fernando quickly recover from inside the yard, taking his cane with him as he takes a driving step into Rodriguez’s mid-section, lifting him up and taking  him to the middle of the street. Rodriguez manages to put his foot against the asphalt of the street and fall back, turning his massive tail to give Fernando a hard swat with it. Fernando is sent back several feet back to near the curb.

They both get up, Rodriguez charges at him, hitting him hard despite Fernando using his feet to hold up against the curb. He hits Fernando across his face, knocking his glasses off. But it was enough for Fernando to grab Rodriguez’s arm by the wrist when it has ended its travel. Few knew what was next, as their voices yell “NO!” but it was too late. Fernando had pulled hard against Rodriguez’s wrist and slammed his free hand into the back of the elbow, breaking Rodriguez’s arm at that point.

Rodriguez howls from the pain despite Fernando grabing a fist full off hair from the back of his head and slams his face onto the asphalt. For a moment there was nothing but a deafening silence as all eyes now point to him. His grandmother calls to him as the patter of feet from the girls, neighbors and police run to his direction. Instead Fernando gathers this things and takes a couple of running/jumping steps before opening his wings and disappearing above the street lamps glow in flight.

Dr. Leary tries to take a running jump into flight but gets her tail grabbed by Grandmother. She also has Mrs. Gonzalez by her tail as well. “Niether one of you are going to followhim. Now get into the house. I’ll go get the girls.”

It did not take long for Grandmother to get the girls, along with Lucy and those with her, into the living room. In the background an ambulance is heard to take Rodriguez to the hospital. She looks at Lucy sternly.

“Who is that alligator that attacked my grandson!” Grandmother almost yells at Lucy in an almost perfect English.

“Rodriguez did not attacked Fernando!” Lucy tells her.

“Miss. We were there to see it. Rodriguez or what ever his name is gave the first hit across Fernando’s jaw.” Dr. Leary tells her.

Senator Mendez and Mayor Cuadrado step into the house.

“I told the media to respect the place and local area so they wont be bothering us.” Mayor Cuadrado tells Grandmother.

“What happened, did that alligator attacked Fernando or did Fernando threw the first punch?” Senator Mendez asks.

“That alligator punched Fernando in the face first.” Grandmother tells her in English.

“Dona Maria, you speak English?” Senator Mendez asks.

“Always did. Since the last great war where I learned it. As my native tongue I prefer Spanish and unless I have too speak English, I will only speak Spanish.”Grandmother answers her sternly.

This made Edna and Edward react in uncertainty with Edna yelling, “But you were disrespectful to dad!”

“Look miss. Your father disrespected me first by calling me a young babe and claiming he would share his cheese with  me. He better go back back to school and learn real Spanish.” Grandmother tells her, then throws at her, “Why would that alligator attack my grandson.”

“I don’t know!” Edna answers.

“Why are you hiding a rapist?” Laura lets out.

The adults turn to face her, with most saying to themselves, “What?”

“Yes, Fernando raped his sister. We were there for what happened afterwards!” Cynthia points at Rachel.

“Fernando did not raped me!” Rachel lets out loud.

“But he’s the only male in the house!” Cynthia points out loudly.

“Something went wrong with the spell.” Mrs. Gonzalez lets out to herself but heard by most.

“Spell?” Mayor Cuadrado asks.

“Jorge. Step up for all to see.” Grandmother tells Jorgina-Daisy. Jorge does as she was told. “Meet your rapist.” Grandmother tells her.

“No way!” Most who don’t know say, with few saying, “But she’s a girl!”

“Mrs. Gonzalez, turn him back to show them.” Grandmother tells her. With a wave of her hand, Jorgina-Daisy is turned back into Jorge. Grandmother looks at Lucy and her friends sternly, “There is your rapist. Turned into a girl as his punishment to live the fears we live in as females until he understands that fear. Now turn him back.” Mrs. Gonzales waves her hand, and Jorge is turned back into Jorgina-Daisy. Grandmother continues, “You now know and you have brought yourselves here to disrupt this party and assault my grandson? You are all lucky that he does not come back and beat you as you all deserve.  Now get out of my house and have your parents here before I go knocking on doors.”

“You aint doing a thing!” Lucy tells Grandmother, getting the attention of all the adults in the room.

“Miss. I don’t know who you are but I am Poucefield Mayor Cuadrado, and I’m telling you that you are going to bring your parents to this respected member of the community to discuss this matter before I step outside and call my police protection to arrest you and the others here.” Mayor Cuadrado tells her.

“Don’t be too hard on the girl.”Senator Mendez tells her.

“Why? All I see is a gang here who one of their kind had assaulted one of the newer members of the community, and if he did not defend himself, he would be in the hospital instead of his attacker!” Mayor Cuadrado replies.

“Rodriguez is in the hospital?!!” Lucy exclaims.

“So this was a set up?” Mayor Cuadrado asks.

“No!” most of them say.

“For you to come here with your friends and have any and or all of your friends confront and attack somebody is a gang action. You can go to jail for acting like a gang in this town!” Mayor Cuadrado tells them. She then takes out her portable radio from her purse and calls to her police entourage captain, “Leo. Call up reinforcements. I’m going to need six officers to escort some children home and collect their intel. Also inform them that I will be visiting them in the upcoming days.”

“Yes Ma’am.” A voice says from the tiny box in the mayor’s hand. The mayor returns to Cynthia and the others.

“This is a shame, for don’t think I don’t know who you are for the most part.” Mayor Cuadrado begins, then points at each of them, “Cynthia, captain of the St. LoveJoy’s girl’s soccer team which you lead to the championships for the past four years. And Lucy, Cynthia’s assistant. And you, Laura Squirrel, captain of the St. Love Joy’s Cheerleading Squad and led them to the cheerleading championships just as often. And lets not forget about you, Edna, the soccer team goalie. Three of the best of the best Pouncefeild as to offer, acting like thugs against the new members of the community.”

“We were not acting like thugs in a gang!” Lucy tells the mayor.

“Laura demanded why are the adults hiding a rapist, and Cynthia pointed out Fernando to be that rapist. It as pointed out to you all that this boy turned girl as his punishment is the rapist, and I find it to be a most fitting punishment to give. But it still does not change the fact that you all came where to assert your own form of justice on the wrong person. That’s vigilantism, and that is as bad as acting as a gang and I am not going to have it in my town.” Mayor Cuadrado tell them, “You all owe Fernando an apology in the very least.”

The police captain arrives into the house with several of his men in tow. They all look at the mayor and her senator friend.

“Take them home and tell their parents that they are to come here, as I will be, at 10 o’clock, to discuss with them about what happened here.” Mayor Cuadrado tells her officers and points out the children who needs to be escorted.

“Come on, let’s go.” One of the officers tells them.

Eventually Lucy and her friends get up and are escorted out of the house by the police, leaving the captain behind. Once they leave, Grandmother and the others look at the remaining girls of Fernando’s little group.

“This will be the last time I will tell you in English. Go outside and enjoy what is left of the night. We will deal with looking for Fernando and you are not to interfere. Now go.” Grandmother tells them. It takes time for them to look at each other and one by one leave the house through the rear door. A few moment after they leave, the adults look at each other. “No one is to go after Fernando no matter what happens.” Grandmother tells them without looking at their direction.

“What if he destroys property out of emotional rage?” The police captain asks.

“Fernando is not that kind of boy. He thinks before taking action and wont go doing anything stupid like that.” Senator Mendez tells him.

“But...” the captain begins to say.

“I will trust what these women have to say about the boy. Do not go after him.” Mayor Cuadrado tells him.

“You may have too.” Dr. Leary inserts herself into the conversation.

“What do you mean?” the others say except for Grandmother who tells her, “Stay out of this.”

“Look. Fernando has a blood vessel in his brain that if it swells up he will pass out. If he flew away, then he’s out there passed out from it and be no danger to anyone. But if he passes out in the middle of the street, over the highway or high up in mid flight, he’s going to get hurt. As his doctor, we should go looking for him.” Dr. Leary explains.

“I heard enough.” the police captain says.

“If you find him, you are to bring him here.” Grandmother tells him.

“If he is hurt or passed out, shouldn’t we take him to the hospital?” The police captain asks.

“Unless he is severely hurt, bring him here. I will take care of him.” Dr. Leary tells the police captain.

“Alright. I’ll see what can be done.” The police captain replies before leaving the house as he takes out his two-way radio from his belt to give instructions to his officers.

“You two are not to go out to find him. I forbid it.” Grandmother tells Dr. Leary and Mrs. Gonzalez, then adds, “We have a party out there to attend to.”
