Jacob smiled at her enthusiasm and quickly brought out some meat for burgers, using his fire to cook it quicky si she wouldn't have ti wait to long. After about 10 minutes he walked out with one for him and one for her. "Burger okay?" He asked with a smirk, setting it down.

Kaera smiled again. "Yeah, I guess we can. Like...who was the guy shooting fire at the building? He should know better, fire can't break into a building that doesn't burn." She lifted Shawn up and jumped to the ground. Thankfully they weren't too high.

Kirsty smirked. "Ab. Fucking. Normal." She winked at him and examined the amulet. Now she was having fun watching this. "Now...find another way and work your way to fortunes."

"Hmm... let's head to a pawn shop. I want to try out something. Well... you can come if you want," he was sure that this wasn't some coincidence. Had the old homeless man done something to make Gilbert experience a trading of valuables? He would only find out soon enough anyhow and made it to a pawnshop.
"Excuse me... I'd like to know how much I can sell this for," he said to a middle-aged man and he would inspect it closely. "Oh! Upon closer inspection this is actually a very rare amulet made in the Rennasaince times! It's in amazing condition where did you find this?!"
Gilbert would explain that a lady gave it to him after exchanging a pocket watch but it seemed that the pawn shop owner didn't care. "Young man I am willing to give you a hundred thousand dollars for this!"
At this point Gilbert almost choked on himself and would do a double take. 'Holy cow a hundred thousand dollars?! That's more than I'll ever make with a cashier job...' In a heartbeat he would accept it and would receive a hundred thousand dollars. He then turned to Kirsty and said, "Well... abnormal or not I just got a 100k!"

Shawn smiled some at her and chuckled some. "Just my brother. He isn't really the sharpest knife in the drawer." He said with a chuckle and tilted his head. "But it made for a good distraction eh?" He always had a soft spot for his brother, they used to be a good team until he went 'good'.

His eyes widened some as he had only gotten a couple bites in. "Would you like another one? Or... Two?" He asked with a laugh.

He looked back at the child dancing. It made his eye water again. "I missed so much..." He said, looking watching Lunar. He was amazing. "He can't walk yet, can he?" He turned back and wiped his eyes. "I thought about you two everyday, I didn't even know he was a boy, and I was so worried you'd moved on without me." Grey sighed, and watched as they pulled into to their home. He stepped out of the car, and grabbed Lunar.
"Hey little guy..." He held the baby close, and spoke to him. "I missed you." He spoke softly, as they walked inside.

Jacob nodded some until she crawled onto the ground. He raised an eyebrow and lokked over. "I have a spare room if you want to sleep there..." He said quietly.

Kirsty
Kirsty smiled. "Sounds amazing! You should keep that." She picked up a random thing from the wall of the pawn shop, it was a pure red cell. The color in her eyes seemed to flex a little bit before she turned to it in horror, throwing it like she just lifted up a katana by the blade. Kirsty looked down at the red rod. She had adapted to it for the most part, if they were in containers, but as she knelt in front of it she could see everything inside of it. The first time she and Django had a fight. He tried to kill her with the same stuff. Kirsty lifted it up slowly and walked up to the pawn shop owner, putting it down on the table. "How much...for it...?" She was getting visibly drained from being around the thing, the color in her eyes seemed to fade.

Kaera
Kaera laughed and nervously ran her hand through her hair. "Well...yeah, it was a good distraction. Just think he could've gotten a bit more credit, right?" She put a hand on her side and just raised an eyebrow at him, peering closer for a second before turning around and walking out of the forest near the prison. The big red tattoo on her back remained glowing for just a few seconds before fading. "This prison. There's like a massive river nearby with a ton of trees. I used to live there."

The shop owner would give a curious look seeing as how no one really took an interest in the thing. "That thing? Not much considering there was no value for it. I can give it to you for about a dollar." Meanwhile Gilbert had decided to save that money in his account and decided to head back later to the homeless man and give him a portion of that money as thanks. For now he would wait for Kirsty to do her thing.

She was already fast asleep. She started to flinch in her sleep though.
Kirsty
Kirsty grinned and slammed a dollar on the counter so hard that it almost cracked it into two parts. "DEALIO!" She snatched up the cell and shoved it into her pocket, following Gilbert with little question. This time she did a handstand on his head, yet he shouldn't be able to feel it whatsoever since Kirsty made herself very light. "Keep going, don't mind me!"
Of course she got weird looks from all of this, but getting weird looks is what Kirsty spent her life getting because of her eyes and tendency to expose her b--
Not going there.

"Almost there. I forgot what I was doing but I'ma run to the city." A young man grinned evilly and sprinted to the city, all happy like.

Avery also remembered not having a sleepover "Oh mom! Would you be fine if I had a sleepover with my friends? Please!" Ashley thought about it "Hm......alright. Just make sure you come home tomorrow, can't have my love muffin gone for too long. Anyway, I should go put your brother to bed." She kissed her on the forehead and picked up Jacob, Sarah got up and made her way to the door, they all vanished soon after. "So I guess we're having a sleep over."

Shawn smiled some at her and sighed some. "You know, he wouldn't want any credit." He said hinting to her that he wasn't a villain. "He's got a soft heart ya know, he'd be taken down if people found out." She watched her turn to walks and raised an eyebrow at her tattoo before following behind her. "Awesome, I don't have a house." He said with a creepy giggle. "Though I know I can get one if I wished."

Jacob sighed some and picked hee up like she was nothing gently carrying her to the spare room and rubbing her back to try and calm her flinches down.

Wormhole
Ashley had gotten home and put Jacob to bed, Sarah went off to relax in her room. The mom went over her room and picked up her suit "Should I?......Come on Ashley, tonight is perfect!" She got her suit on and opened a portal, it closed behind her. Wormhole appeared on top of the roof of a bank where she created a portal to blast a hole through it. When the dust cleared, a woman in a dark blue jumpsuit with blue lines running round it was in the middle. With a flick of a finger, a portal opened in the safe, sucking up the money. For now, Wormhole waited for the process to finish, everyone clinging to the walls, trying not to make her mad.

(Oh boy... here we go again. Hue.)
"Umm...," he decided to look away and said, "I'm gonna go thank that old guy. Give him some money as thanks." He would head on out to go to the spot where he met the homeless man but found that he was gone. "What the? ... He's gone? Where? I..." A man of young stature approached him and asked, "I don't want to be rude but... did you give money to the homeless man that sat there and received an item where you traded till you got money?"
Gilbert was a bit confused but nodded his head in honesty,
"Ah... well I think I should explain then. You see that old homeless man... he's an oddity. I don't mean like weird but strange in the events that occur if you give him money. People that encountered him and gave him money had similar experience much like yours. I too also gave him money about $10 to be exact. They call him the 'Straw Millionaire' based on that old Japanese tale. No one can explain it but... it seems that an act of kindness toward him and he gives you an item. Then that item will be trade for something of better value until you decide to either keep that item or spend any money you get from it. It's weird but... that's just how it. Oh and one important advice: Don't keep on trading. Whatever you do at least stop at a point where you have a good amount of money. The more you trade, the more greed you build up. It happens to almost everyone that encounters him. At first it was an act of generosity then they take advantage of that generosity as they keep trading and trading until eventually they try to become the richest man/woman in the world. They all met a horrifying end in their short lifespan. I was lucky enough to stop trading when I had... who knows what could've happened to me? I suggest you do the same. Later." The young man would walk off to his own business and Gilbert was left not sure what to feel.
"So if I kept on trading... I could've seriously been in some deep trouble huh? Maybe... maybe the homeless man was trying to teach a lesson? A really drastic one if you ask me, but it gets the point across. After all I cashed in that amulet for money so... I'll just save and use it for house bills and stuff."
Gilbert was one of many that had encountered the 'Straw Millionaire.' It's ironic that the 'Straw Millionaire' they all met was an old homeless man but why does he have this power? No one knows this but a long time the 'Straw Millionaire' story actually did happen. The man in that story lived a successful life and it seems that he passed on this 'power' or 'trait' onto future generations to come. Perhaps that 'Straw Millionaire' was actually one such descendant.
'Straw Millionaire': An act of kindness towards one with this 'power' will be given an item and experience a series of trades. There is no end to these trades unless the person decides to either stop the trade or destroy their current traded item. If the person keeps on trading, they will eventually met upon a series of unfortunate events based on the amount of trades made. The more one trades the worse the events that occur.

Jacob jumped some and smiled at her when she calmed down. Though he didn't really know what to do about being hugged. "I wanted you to be comfortable, and you where shaking so that's why I am here. Are you okay?" He asked with a frown.

"Ye-Yea" She says her voice cracking and she stutters. She curls up by the knee.
Serena
A pair of arms and warm fluffy wings wrapped around Avery. Behind her was the scent of a lavender and bullets, also known as Serena. "I'm keeping you for tonight." Of course, Serena made sure the family didn't see this as it was a quite intimate hug. However, Serena let go quickly and walked around in front. "Ready, both of you?" Both her wings were expanded out, waiting for one human each to step inside.

Kaera
Kaera laughed. "That's not so bad. I never understood the need for humans to have houses anyways." She slid down the side of the mountain, narrowly dodging trees until finally sliding to a stop in front of the river. With one strike to the side, Kaera knocked down a small tree and began turning it into a boat. "The environment on the planet is nice. A house is rather constricting." After she hacked her way into the log, she lay down on her stomach near the bank and stuck her entire head in the river, taking a long drink. It was pretty clear by her mannerisms that she wasn't used to being around people, let alone the customs of the world. Hell, she learned English just a few weeks ago.

Kirsty
Kirsty smiled, before stomping the ground so hard that her foot made a crack all the way up to a building. "WHAT DID I TELL YOU?! ABNORMAL ABNORMAL ABNORMAL!" She ran over to one side of the building and pushed it back together before randomly picking up a bunch of rocks and tossing it towards Gilbert with not too much force, but enough to cause a stinging feeling. "What did I tell you?! Abnormal! Haha! Something was abnormal! Be it the concept around how you got the mirror or the mirror itself!" Eventually Kirsty jumped into the air and slammed into the other side of the street, grabbing a scared young man by the shoulders and making out with him full out on the street. "It's abnormal!" And then she ran back to Gilbert and grinned. "Ab. Normal."
@YoungX ( I miss characters like this.)

The man was walking down the street when a woman grabbed him by the shoulders and kissed him. He couldn't say he didn't enjoy it, but it was quite a surprise. "Wow, i can't believe they already know me. Heh."

(I see. It was funny to actually write out the 'Straw Millionaire' power. Just shows how weird Gilbert's life has become now that he's discovered his power.)
"Oof!" Gilbert took a bit of a recoil from the rocks but he was a bit weirded out by Kirsty before calming himself down. "Ok ok yeah you were right. Such a weird life lesson though...," he said wondering why such a power even exists. "My life has definitely gotten weirder since I discovered my power." There was a lot right with that statement but this was only the beginning.

Celeste looked at the two and smiled lovingly, pulling out her keys and locking the car. "Mm.. He's working on it.. He's pretty persistent like his father." She chuckled, opening the door for the two. She sighed and rested her things on the counter nearby, quickly going to straighten up a couple paintings and toys Lunar threw around. "It would have been a bit cleaner if i had known you were coming back..."
