The two were in a cage on the table. Tommy was crying a Tammy held him. The girl looked up, crying still.
"Daddy!"

Rowan choked back a sob as he tore open the door of the cage and pulled out Tammy and Tommy, holding them so close to himself. He never wanted to let them out of his sight again. "Are you guys okay? I-I'm so sorry this happened, babies…"

Matthew hurried to Rowan's side, quickly wrapping them all up in his arms and wings. Timmy was crying still, sliding down to hug his siblings tightly.

"Let's get them back to the hotel…" Rowan sighed weakly and huddled up in Matthew's arms, his adrenaline starting to wear off.

Matthew gathered Rowan up securely in his arms. He looked around a moment, spotting Fluff in another cage. He quickly got him out, holding all of them close as he turned and hurried out.
"I've got you…"

Rowan buried his face in Matthew's chest, holding the chicks close to himself. "We're not paying that fucking sitter…" He whispered shakily.

"No, we aren't…" Matthew carefully made his way back to the hotel, holding them all to his chest. Tammy and Tommy were both shaking violently, Tommy clutching Rowan's shirt in his fists. Tammy was still crying softly from the stress, and Timmy was sitting there, still shocked.

Rowan gently pet the birds' heads, trying to comfort them and himself. "I wish they could talk so they could tell us what happened…" He sighed softly. "Do you guys have police here?"

"No, no we don't… Things like this doesn't happen." Matthew got everyone back into the hotel, sitting down in the nest bed with Rowan in his lap. The three chicks didn't really change what they were doing.
"D-daddy…" Tammy said again softly. She leaned into Rowan's finger, crying even more. She wanted to help, but she didn't know how.

"I know, baby…" Rowan held the birds closer and sighed. "Well, is there anyone we can tell? We can't just ignore this. This is illegal where I'm from, you know."

"Ah… There aren't really any laws against things like this…" Maybe closed his eyes a moment, pulling Rowan closer.

Rowan huffed a bit. "Why not? What are there laws against? I don't want this to ever happen again."

"Not killing anyone without explicit permission," Matthew said softly.
"That's pretty much it."

"Explicit permission?? God we gotta get some police in this place… we need some authority so that kidnapping isn't allowed."

"We… We don't see any need to protect against things like this, because it just d-doesn't happen…" Matthew was obviously shaken up by this.

Rowan sighed softly. "I don't want to just let this go, Matthew. This isn't okay."

"I… W-we could spread the word, let everyone know what they did…" Matthew shook his head some in disbelief.

"Yeah, I guess…" Rowan sighed softly. "I just… they hurt my babies. I can't just let that slide."

"I can't either," Matthew said softly. "We'll… we'll figure something out."

Rowan nodded a bit and pushed open the door of the hotel, where he tiredly greeted his mother. He then set the chicks in their nest and curled up on the bed.

The chicks all curled up together, still obviously upset by what had happened. Matthew offered a small greeting as well, curling up on the bed next to Rowan.

Rowan huddled up with Matthew, a few tears rolling down his pale cheeks. Eventually, he managed to drift off to sleep.

Matthew wrapped his arms securely around Rowan, soon drifting off himself. There had just been too much stress.

Rowan was still dead asleep in the morning when Matthew woke up, completely exhausted from the previous day's activities.

Matthew looked down at Rowan a moment, running his fingers through the man's hair once. Everything was just so… strange for Matthew at the moment.

Rowan leaned into Matthew's hand a bit when he was pet, relaxing into his gentle touch. "Mmmm…"

Matthew managed a weak smile at the reaction Rowan had to Matthew's touch. He played with the man's hair a bit, closing his eyes some.

Rowan stirred after a bit and looked up at Matthew sleepily. "Mmm… g'mornin… how are the chicks?" He asked.

"Morning…" Matthew sat up a bit to look at them.
"They're still asleep," he said softly.

"Good… they had an eventful day yesterday. Maybe we can take them out so we can all have a relaxing day today?"
