Yet another story dealing with Puck and Abby, but that will only be
in the first part. I am going to start to go into the lives of
the gargoyles. Hope you enjoy it.


After 5 months of being pregnant, Abby was happy when the first winds
of fall came around. She had been sitting in front of a air
conditioner most of the summer. The baby was happy but she was dying
of the heat. Abby was also noticing changes in the baby. In the
daytime, her baby sounded like a little boy. During the night, the baby
sounded like a little girl. Abby just thought it was her imagination.

Working for her father was a lot tougher than Abby had expected. It
was fun though. She was feared by most of the employees. They knew
that if you wanted to keep your head you never screwed up on Abby's 
shift. Today was no exception. Abby was yelling at an employee for
something. At the corner of her eye she saw Owen wince. Man she was
good. The employee left. Abby took a deep breath and patted her
rounded stomach. Owen raised an eyebrow,"Is everything ok?"
Abby turned to look at Owen," Yes Mr. Burnett. My baby just commented
that it hopes I never get mad at it."
Owen smiled,"That makes two of us." Abby gave him a smile.
There was a knock at the door. A scared intern entered,"Mrs. Avalon?"
"Yes, Diana?"
"Um, Dr. O'Meiko said he can see you at 1:30."
"Thank you."
Owen closed his computer,"Anything special?"
"Nope. My baby is going to have a picture taken."
"I'm sorry I can't go with you." Abby patted Owen's hand,"I'll be fine."

Abby was lying on a table waiting for the doctor. Typical. A nurse
came in and had Abby put on a shirt, so that it didn't get vasoline on her
work clothes. Abby couldn't help laughing as the nurse put the vasoline
on her stomach. The nurse smiled,"sorry."
Dr. O'Meiko came in. He poked Abby's stomach a few times. "You are a
slight big for 5 months. But everything seems to be in order. So, you
want to look at your baby?"
"YES!"He turned on the ultrasound. He was fixing the cord when Abby 
noticed something,"Um, Doctor..why does my baby have 4 legs?"
The doctor turned to look at the screen,"I don't believe it. Well, that is why
you are alittle big..you are having twins.
Abby smiled,"By any chance is one a girl and the other a boy?"
The doctor panned the area."Yes, as a matter of fact they are. One male
and one female. They alao seem to be identical."
"How do you know?" The doctor pointed to an image on the screen," 

They are both sucking their right thumbs."

Puck was sitting with David and Fox in the library. The door opened and
a smiling Abby plopped down in a chair facing them. "Abby, are you ok?
Is the baby ok?" Puck asked worried.
Abby shook her head,"No."
"No? What's wrong?" Puck was sitting next to her.
"Well, it has 4 legs, 4 arms, two heads.." The three looked horrified.
"And two bodies. I'm having twins."
Fox let out a laugh,"Twins."Abby nodded,"Yup. A boy and a girl."
DAvid was stunned. Puck put his face in a hand. He looked at her," 2 cribs."
She nodded,"2 cribs. The funny thing is I knew something was up."
"Why?" Puck asked.
"Well, during the day the baby would have a boy's voice. During the night
a girl's."Fox was looking at Abby,"What do they say?"
Abby shrugged,"Where's daddy is the most asked. But the usual kid stuff.
Whatta doing? Where are we? What do you look like? Why do people call
daddy big ears?"
"They really ask that. What do you tell them?" Puck was curious.
"I tell them their dad has big ears."
Puck threw his hands up,"Great! They are going to think I'm Ross Perot."
Abby grabbed Puck's hand and placed it on her stomach. With her hand
ontop of his Puck heard a little boy ask,"Who is Ross Perot, mommy?"
Puck face was of pure shock,"I heard him. What are they like?"
"From what I can tell, our son is a day person. Always active. Curious.
Troublemaker.A loud mouth. Our daughter doesn't ask questions. She
says that she taps into my brian to get her answers. She said that she tried
to teach her brother but he was too stubborn."She was laughing. 
David, finding this to be very interesting,began to think of the possibilities.
He could have them tested. He shook his head. How could he even think about
that. This was his daughter and grandchildren. He watched Abby try to 
stand with some difficulty.
"If you will excuse me. I'm going to tell Angela and then I'm 
going to read my daughter a story." Puck helped  her up.
Fox asked,"What story?"
"The Shining."
Fox and Davidd looked at her in a weird way."Don't you think that is 
alittle scary for a baby?"
Abby nodded,"Yes. But she went into my brain and read whatever pages are 
up there. She liked it. So I read and she hears my inner voice. I don't even
have to talk."
Puck leaned on Abby's shoulder,"So, I have a very morbid daughter."
Abby kissed him on the cheek,"She's just as morbid as you?"
"That's what I said..I have a very morbid daughter."

Abby left the room. She walked into the kitchen where the gargoyles
were eating. "Hey guys!"
They all waved and resumed eating. Abby sat next to Angela,"So, how
is your little one?" Abby poked Angela's stomach teasingly.
"OK. NO problems yet. I won't start showing like you for another 4
years. How is your baby?"
Abby stole one of Brooklyn's fries. Brook made a face but it was
more playful than anger. Brook and Abby had gotten close since she 
became pregnant. He came to her when things weren't going well
and she did the same. He took care of her when she was up in the
middle of the night with cravings. Puck didn't mind. He thought it
was great. Abby finished her fry,"Not one baby...babies."
The gargoyles stopped eating to look at Abby.
"How many babies are you having, lass?" Hudson said in a happy tone.
"Two. One boy and one girl."
"Congrats Abby." Brook said. Lex nodded in agreement.
Angela looked so happy,"WOW! How do they feel?"
"Active. The boy kicks me at lesst three times a day. I got the bruises
to prove it. The girl likes to rub up against the side of my stomach while I'm
reading."
Broadway approached Abby,"Can you really feel them?"
"Yup. Give me your hand." Broadway obeyed. Abby placed his hand by her 
son. He kicked.
"Wow. That's some kick. Maybe he's be a football star one day."
"CAn I feel it?" Brook asked. Within 5 minutes everyone including 
Goliath and Hudson felt her son kick.
"That's going to be a strong boy, Abby,"said Goliath.
Abby stole another fry from Brook,"I know."
Abby was reading 'The Shining' to her daughter. A scary part was coming
up and she could feel the baby rub against her for comfort. She stopped
reading. A small voice said,"Mom..why did you stop?"
"Because you were getting scared."
"No I wasn't. Please read mom. Just until the end of the chapter."
"OK" Abby let out a sigh and continued to read. Puck was in the doorway
watching the two girls. Puck never told Abby but he had been hearing
the voices too. It wasn't until Abby said she was having twins did he
realize where they were coming from. He saw Abby turn around to look
at him. She held out her hand. Puck walked in and sat next to her."How
are my girls?"
"Fine. I want to name the girl Luna."
Puck looked at Abby. She was so serious. "Fine. What are we going
to name the boy?"
She shrugged,"Who knows. He won't comment. Luna asked to be named after
the moon. The boy says whatever you think is best."
Puck pointed to himself,"Me?"
"Yes, you."
"I'll think about it." He kissed her and went to their room. He sat in front of
the cribs. Luna would be put in the moom crib. The boy will go in the
sun one. What is a good name for the trixster's son?

Abby had just finished reading when cravings hit. Her son and daughter wanted
ice cream. She walked in to see Brooklyn playing solitarie. "Hey Brook."
Brooklyn looked up,"Hi, Abby." He lowered his head," Hi babies."
Abby corrected him,"One baby and a Luna."
Brooklyn looked surprised,"You named one already. What about the boy?"
Abby sat down,"We don't know yet. Puck's thinking about it."
Brooklyn smiled,"You could always name him Brooklyn."
She patted his beak,"Thanks for the suggestion. We'll add it to the pot."

"So, what do the munchkins want to eat tonight." Brook looked at her.
"They want ice cream."
"Coming right up." Brook went to the fridge and pulled out the ice cream.

Abby noticed that Brook's face was sad,"what's up?"
He looked at her in a confused way,"What do you mean?"
She gave him a you-know-what-I'm-talking-about look. He broke down.
"It's the Broadway and Angela thing. I'm happy for them. But I feel so
alone. Goliath has Elisa. Hudson has Bronx. David has Fox. Lex has
Alex. Puck has you. Even your babies have each other. Then there is me.
Brooklyn-the gargoyle who is doomed to be alone." He gave Abby the bowl
of ice cream. 

"Come on Brook, you have me and the babies' midnight cravings." Brook
smiled at that,"You just have to go out there and find someone."
"Like this?!" Brook pointed to himself,"that's asking for trouble."
"Finding someone to love always is." Abby was looking at Brook. She 

hugged him. Brook could feel the babies rubbing against her stomach trying to
hug him. Abby laughed,"That tickles."
"I got to go on patrol now. I'll see you, Luna, and the other baby later."
"Bye Brook." Abby thought to herself how she hoped Brook would find 
someone. If not, he may go insane. 


Brooklyn was patroling near the downtown area. The past few nights there
had been a series of rapes and murders connected with strip joints. He had always wondered
what was so amazing in the clubs that made men come out horny and drunk.
Brook thought that maybe he should find out. He snuck into the roof
of a club called 'Spin City' He followed the beams and rested just infront
of the stage. He was high enough that no one would see him and close enough
to hear and see what was going on. He noticed that all the waitresses had on 
bikini-type outfits. It left nothing to the imagination.
Brooklyn could see a fat man with many rings and a suit talking to a dirty
looking man with cash. "So, Mr. Big what will this get me."
The man took the money and counted it,"Maybe a waitress.
They are between the ages of 18 to 29. If you want one of the dancers,
that will be triple."
The dirty man said," I'll take a waitress."
Mr. Big snapped and a waitress appeared before him,"Missy, this is Mr.
Tomsp. He is your master tonight. Go Play." The girl took the man's arm
and lead him to the back. Brook followed. By the time he got there, the woman
was completely stripped. She was dancing for the dirty man. He ordered
her to stop. She obeyed. He told her to come closer. She did. He took his
 dirty wet tongue and began to kiss her stomach. He grabbed her breasts.
He threw her to the ground and began to fuckn her. Brook felt
sick. As he left he could see a tear roll down her face and a knife appear.
He opened the vent and climbed into the hallway. He went up to the door and knocked.
He could hear the girl squeal in pain. That raspy voice called,"Who the fuck is it?"
"Police. Open the door." Brooklyn said in his most stern voice.
"Fuck off copper. I paid for this piece of ass."
Brooklyn's eyes widened then began to glow. He kicked open the door. The dirty man,
naked from the waist down, threw himself against the wall. "Shit you are one of those
monsters."
"We are not monsters...you are."
The man grabbed his pants to leave but Brooklyn grabbed him. He
took some handcuffs that were on the bed and cuffed him to the bedpost.
Brook turned to look at the girl. She was in shock. Not from Brook but 
from that monster. Brookyln could hear the sound of footsteps running down the hall.
A girl, around Abby's age, entered the room. She quickly scooped up 
a blanket and wrapped the other girl in it. Brook was taken aback by the way see looked
 Her long red hair draped over her shoulders. She had on the same bikini outfit,
but it was alittle bit filled out on top. Her toned body was beautiful. She looked at Brooklyn with 
beautiful green eyes,"Did he do this?"
Brookyln shook his head clear,"Uh.yes."
She got up and went over to the man. She gave him one good kick in the balls.
He began to gag and drool trying to get his air back. She went over to the girl.
"Trish!Trish!" Brook helped wrap Trish up in blankets. She was bleeding 
from bite marks the man had given her. 
She was also bleeding heavily in her side. The girl and Brooklyn found 
a knife in her."
"Here, don't touch the knife and go get help. I'll put pressure on the wound."
The girl grabbed another girl, who had come out into the hall. She came
back and was helping Brookyln clean Trish up.
"Thank you for helping her. My name is Zoe."
"Brooklyn."
Their attention was brought back to Trish. She started to gasp for air.
her beathing slowed and then stopped. "Trish! Trish! NO. I will not 
let you go."
She started CPR but soon realized that as she was working the heart 
more blood was coming out. Zoe just sat there. Brooklyn put a hand on 
her."I should have stopped it sooner." All of a sudden Zoe grabbed him 
and threw him into the room across the hall.
"Stay in here. If they see you they'll think you did it. Please don't leave.
Her voice was still even though tears were running down her cheeks.
"OK." she disappeared into the hall.
Brookyln hide in the closet just to be safe.

Zoe went into the room. She covered her friend's body in respect. She 
looked at the dirty man laughing like crazy. Zoe heard a voice behind her,"NYPD!FREEZE!"
She turned to see a man and woman police team holding their weapons on her.
She fell to the ground. She couldn't hold back her grief. "He killed her."
The woman put her gun away. She knelt beside Zoe. "Detective Maza. My partner
is Detective Bluestone. What happened here."
Zoe told the two detectives everything. Elisa told the forensic people to come 
in. They took Zoe out into the hall. "CAn I trust you?"
Elisa nodded. Zoe took her into the room and closed the door. "Detectives
your witness is a gargoyle. I asked him to stay here but I guess he 
didn't."
Her head lowered. Brooklyn stepped out of the shadows,"No, I stayed."
Brook saw Zoe smile. It melted his heart. He turned to see his friends.
"Elisa! Matt! I saw everything." Brooklyn took them everything he had seen.
Brooklyn could see Matt clench his fists,"Damn it Elisa. You realize that he is the
serial murderer we have been looking for." He looked at Brooklyn,"Elisa
and I brought him in yesterday. We couldn't prove that it was him so
we had to release him. Now another girl is dead.
Zoe spoke up but in a wimper,"She was only 16. Mr. Big took her from some
one who owed him money. I'm here because I owed him money from a college loan
When I came to pay, he had doubled the price. I couldn't pay him."
Zoe began to shake,"Trish and I were like sisters. We looked out for
each other. Mr. Big told us that as long as we never gave him trouble
we wouldn't have to work the beds."
Brookyln spoke up,"But I saw Mr. Big call for her."
Zoe nodded,"Trish got into a fight with Mr. Big about money. This was her
punishment." Zoe looked at the detectives,"there is no way you could say 
I died in there too. Carry my body out and let me run. I'm 20. I'm legally capable."
her crying was becoming hysterical. Brookyln reached and held her.
He felt like he was holding a child that was scared of the dark.
He wished that was the case. There was a knock on the door. An officier
 entered as Brooklyn hide in the shadows.
"Maza, he got away. But we found him."
"Where!?"
"He said that Mr. Big cheated him out of a good piece of ass so as we were
taking the handcuffs off he got away from us. we found him stabbing Mr.
Big. Mr. Big is dead and so is the suspect. We had to shoot him in 
self-defense. He tried to stab one of my team."
"Thank you, Morgan."said Matt.
Morgan shut the door. Zoe was smiling. "I'm free." Elisa picked up a blanket and wrapped
Zoe in it,"I think we should take you to the hospital. Just to be safe.
Zoe knew what she was doing. She couldn't stay here tonight. She would be safer
at a hospital. She hugged Elisa,"Thank you."
She walked over and hugged Brooklyn,"Thank you. Don't be a stranger either."
Matt nudged Brookyln in the side playfully,"Looks like you got a friend."
Brooklyn just smiled and escaped through the window.
All the way back Trish's body played in his mind. It hurt him to 
remember her breath slowing down. Her eyes wide open in a blank
shock. Chills ran all over his body.

Brook returned to the castle with two hours before sunrise to relax. He was
surprised to find the whole clan around the table listening to Elisa.
They looked up when he came in. Goliath put his hand on Brook's
shoulder,"Are you ok? Elisa explained what happened tonight. If you
need to talk about it.."
Brook pushed his hand off,"I'm not a hatchling. I can take it."
Chills ran through his body again. If he was going to talk to anyone
it was going to be Abby. She would understand.
"Brookyln, I thought you might want an update on your 'friend.'"
Elisa said holding up a folder."Her adopted name is Zoe Somren, but her
real name is Zoe Desdemona MacBeth."
"MACBETH!" They all yelled.
"Och, this lass must be extra trouble..to be related to him."
Elisa shook her head," From what I know, she has no tie to him. Her file
is clear. She was adopted when she was 6 months old. Foster mother
dies ten years ago in a a car accident. Foster father, a general, 
was found two years dead at his home from a massive heart attack.
She was hometught. No friends. But she has extreme fighting abilities.
It says here that her father took her with him to the base when he trained.
She is classified as a weapon under US authority.
Other than that she has no history."
Hudson throw up his hands,"Aye, Like MacBeth and Demona. If you
tried to look for their pasts you would never find it."
Goliath nodded,"Maybe we should look into this. Where is she now Elisa?"
"She's at Manhatten Medical. On the top floor, east side of the building."
Brookyln interrupted,"May I go? She already knows me. I may have a 
better shot at getting her to talk."
Elisa rose from her chair,"That's true Goliath. She did seem more
comfortable talking with Brookyln around."
"You may go Brooklyn. But be careful."
Brook was already out the door.

Zoe looked at her little prison. Guards were outside her door just in case 
anyone tried to kill her. fat chance. Mr. Big was the only
person who knew why she was there. The next Mr. Big wouldn't even care 
she was gone. He probably didn't even know who she was.
Her life could be summed up in 4 words: will never be remembered.
Zoe went into the bathroom. She splashed water on her face. Her
bright emerald eyes stared at her image. Her scalet red hair was alittle
puffy put a scrungie would take care of that. 

Maybe I can look for my real parents. I always wondered where I got 
these eyes. As she thought she shook her head,"You are so stupid.
You are a freak. That is probably why they threw you away."    
There was a tap at the window. Zoe, going into a military attack mood, slid
to the door. If someone had seen her they would have thought that
her eyes were glowing red. She saw Brookyln.
She got up and opened the window. "Hey stranger. What's up?"
Brooklyn shrugged,"Not much. How are you feeling?"
Zoe let out a deep breath,"Tired, Alone, Worthless..I can go on if you like."
Brookyln smiled and shook his head.
"Didn't think so. So, where are you going to be tomorrow night?"
"Why?"
Zoe shrugged,"I was thinking that maybe we could go somewhere."
Brookyln tapped her shoulder and waved his hand up and down,"Right.
Why don't you just put a sign on me "Quarrymen. Place hammer here.""
Zoe looked into his eyes,"I didn't mean it that way. You fly and carry
me. I need to find a place to live and what better way then to
get the bird's eye view."
Brooklyn was getting nervous. She was just too comfortable with this.
"Umm, I don't know. No offense but you seem very comfortable. You
didn't even scream when you first looked at me. It's weird."
Zoe smiled,"I have always been comfortable with the strange and unusual.
I'm sorry if I have come on too strong. I tend to do that a lot.
I guess it's my way of hiding the pain." A tear rolled down her cheek.
Brooklyn stepped into the room. He held her. "I know how you feel."
Zoe sniffled and pulled away,"You better get going the sun is going to rise
and I need my sleep."
Brook left. He couldn't wait to tell Abby. he hoped she was still awake.
Zoe sat on the bed. She pulled her knees to her chest and began to rock.
She was still crying. She missed her mother, father, and Trish.
She walked over to her box and took out a medallion with the symbol
of the MacBeth crest. It was found around her neck when she was dumped in
 front of St Patrick's cathedral. She placed the chain around her neck and
 went to sleep.

Her dreams were full of flashbacks of Scotland's history. Particularly,
of a Scottish king and a red-haired gargoyle. 
At the corner of the room stood three women with white, black, and 
yellow hair,"Selene, she is forming very well." said Phoebe
"Yes, I agree. But how much longer will she fight the gargoyle in her."
"We created her from MacBeth and Demona as a joke. But.."Luna looked at
Zoe,"I have grown to care for her. Must we destroy her life again by
causing her dormant gargoyle genes to begin their menance."
Phoebe waved a finger at her sister,"Please, you give these mortals
far too much credit. Goliath's clan will know about her. What is the
harm. We have used her life for our jest for 20 years. MacBeth and demona
 don't even know about her."
Selene nodded,"Yes, we never meant for her to be happy. Come Luna it
will be fun."
The three sisters stood over Zoe's body. They raised their hands:
		Child of human and fang
		Change by the light of our hands.
		We sisters call on your blood to do what we say
		Awaken Demona, Run through her blood
		By dawn's fair light, Zoe will
		be mortal as can be,
		As the sunsets she will know
		Of her foe within.
There was a bright light and all was quiet. Luna remained for a few
moments. She ran her hand through Zoe's hair,"I'm sorry." she vanished.

Abby was singing as she was baking cookies. Being pregnant was making her
do strange things. She always wanted to cook. She mixed foods that
were never meant to be mixed. Owen walked in and smiled at the cookies.
"They smell very good."
"Thank you." She placed some in a box. Owen went to eat one. Abby grabbed
his hand,"Um Owen, sweetheart if you don't want to get sick..don't eat them."

Owen looked confused,"Why?"
"Well, you know how I have been mixing foods," he nodded," those are 
chocolate garlic peanut cookies."
Abby could see Owen's face turn green. He handed the cookie to her. She
ate it. Owen pointed to her stomach," Do they like it?"
Abby nodded still chewing the cookie.
"The Puck has morbid children." Abby swallowed,"Got milk."
They both chuckled. Abby was rubbing her side. Owen turned to where
she was rubbing,"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. My back has just been bothering me,"she patted her belly,"it
is like carrying a bowling ball in here."
Owen told her to sit on the stool next to him and turn around. She sat down
and Puck began to give her a back rub.
Abby was amazed on how good that felt. "Where did you learn to do that?"
Puck, still rubbing, put his head on her shoulder," About 150 years ago,
I was out west. I was a cowboy. Boots and everything. Well, I got caught 
in a blizzare and ended up in a house with a very pregnant lady and her husband. Her
husband taught me how to rub her back when she got these type of backaches.
He was a shepard so he wasn't around a lot. I didn't mind. I liked
being around the woman. She was kind and a great cook."
Abby turned her head,"What happen to them?"
Puck stopped rubbing,"The husband was killed in a avalanche that winter.
The woman gave birth to a boy. The last I heard they were on their way
to California to live with her mother. But it was a time of Indian 
raids and massacres. Who knows if they ever made it." Abby was sitting 
facing Puck,"I'm sorry." She rubbed her hand on his cheek.
Puck turned into Owen,"It's ok. You couldn't have known." He kissed
the top of Abby's head and left.

Owen was stopped in the hall by Mr. Xanatos. "Owen, there is a woman
in your office. She says that you have a appointment with her."
Owen raised an eyebrow,"That is odd. I'll take care of it."
Xanatos nodded and went to his office.
As Owen opened the door he knew exactly who it was. He quick turned into 
Puck. "LUNA!
What the hell are you doing here?"
Luna looked at her Avalon brother. He was stronger and more handsome than
ever. 

She was so mad that he choose a human for his mate and not one of his own
She never did see what Titania saw in her human. She cleared her head.
This is not why she came. "Puck I need your help."
Puck folded his arms and snorted,"That will be a first."
Abby was running as fast as she could. She had heard Puck scream.
She barged into the room to see a very beautiful woman, with white
hair and wearing a navy blue business suit with short shirt, looking at her with
wide eyes. She pointed at her,"Puck, please tell me that that is not your wife.
And PLEASE tell me that those are not your children!"
Abby gave her a hard look. Puck walked over to her and kissed her hard.
He looked at Luna,"Of course it is, who else would love me like that."
Luna dropped in a chair,"We have to talk." She began the long story of
Zoe's birth. How the weird sisters took one of Avalon's birth bubbles
and put Zoe in it. They then took turns carrying Zoe inside them like
a mortal. "Phoebe took the first three months, Selene took the next, I
took the last. I loved the way she felt moving in me. Though the
kicking is something to be desired for."
Abby patted her own stomach,"Tell me about it."
Luna completely ignoring Abby continued,"Anyway, I fell in love
with her. My sisters got bored of her and left her at St Patrick's
cathedral 20 years ago."
Puck closed his eyes and rubbed his temples,"Let..me...get...this...straight.
You STOLE one of Avalon's birth bubbles. The ones we were born in, so
she would have an Avalon soul. That way Oberon couldn't trace her.
She bored you and you dumped her."
Luna looked at Puck and said coldly," Yes. We watched her grow. We
through obstacle after obstacle at her. But she always came through.
So, as our last jest we let her gargoyle genes run their course."
Puck was ready to explode Luna said," She will be human by day and
gargoyle at night. Puck, brother, we got the idea from you."
Puck narrowed his eyes at Luna,"Shut up. If you think that's going to impress
me, you are funking wrong. Sorry."
Luna looked hurt,"Fine. We'll you help me."
Puck was about to say no when Abby touched his arm. He felt Abby's
mental voice toch his mind,"Help her. If not for her for Zoe. Brook told me
about her last night. Zoe needs all the help she can get in the world.
Also imagine what will happen if the Quarryman find a human/gargoyle
being."
Puck eyes widened at the thought of the Quarryman. "Your right."
He turned to Luna,"I'll help Zoe."
Abby looked at the woman in front of her,"Your name is Luna?"
Luna nodded her head,"What of it human?" She saw Puck give Abby a hard
look, Abby shrugged,"Nothing."
Luna stood,"She's at Manhattan Medical. There is a guard at her door."
Puck pointed a finger at Luna,"Stay here. You get to explain all this
to her Abby get the iron knife I have in the desk. If she trys 
anything...kill her." Puck vanished in a bright light. Abby got the knife
"This is stupid. Why would you want to hurt me?"
Luna sat on the desk,"Maybe because I hate the idea of Puck loving you
and not me. Maybe because if you didn't have that knife I would kill
you. Just because you are immortal doesn't mean you can't die."
Abby swallowed hard and tightened her grip on the knife.

Puck disguised himself as a NYPD officier. He placed his hand on the 
hilt of his gun. If Luna does anything to Abby I'll use this gun on her.
It may burn my hand off because of the iron but Abby is damn worth it.
He could hear his footsteps echo in the empty hallway. He stopped at
a door with a heavyset blonde male guard. The guard gave Puck a weird
expression,"I've never seen you on the beat before."
Puck put on a heavy Queens accent," Yeah, well I'dez never seen you'dez
either."
The officer asked what he wanted. Puck responded," I've been sent 'ere
to escort a Ms. MacBeth to interegation. 'ere are the papers from Dec
Maza and Dec Bluestone." Puck gave him the papers.
The guard looked at the papers,"Would you mind if I checked this out?"
Puck shoke his head,"Nah, tell Maza that Officier Puck from Eyrie says
hi."
The guard walked and picked up the phone."Hello Detective Maza."
"Yes, Arnold." Elisa was organizing her papers.
"Well, there is an officier that says you gave the orders to move Ms. Mac
Beth. 

He says he's Officier Puck from Eyrie?"
Elisa's face went down,"Put him on."
Arnold held the phone to him,"She wants to talk to you."
Puck took the phone,"Hello Elisa."
He heard a very serious voice,"This better be the long-eared Puck."
He drumed his fingers on the counter,"Most people call me Mr. Avalon now."
Elisa let out a sigh," What are you doing there?"
"I have just found out that Ms MacBeth is Demona's and Mac's child.
At sundown she will be growing some extra arms. Get my drift."
"Oh my..get her out of there."
"Will do." Puck handed the phone back to Arnold. The heavyset man listened
and then shook his head, "Come with me." He unlocked the door,"Ms MacBeth?"
"Yes Arnold?" A musical sounding voice answered.
"There is an officier here to take you downtown."
"OK." A girl around 5'2" stepped out of the bathroom wearing cutoff jeans
and a t-shirt. Puck could see that see had Demona's hair. Her muscle-build
and eyes were identical to MacBeth's. The rest of her resembled the weird
sisters - the high cheek bones, fair skin, and thin body. She could
pass as a child of Oberon in a New York minute.
Puck cleared his throat,"Are you ready, Ms. MacBeth?"
Zoe picked up her duffel bag and backpack,"Yup." She hugged Arnold. 
"Good luck with your girlfriend. Here's to a new beginning;yours and mine
"You have no idea,"Puck muttered under his breath.

Zoe was amazed as they walked into Owen's office. her mouth had been
open since the elevator. In the office, Zoe saw a woman in a navy blue
business suit. Next to her was a smiling very pregnant woman with brown
curly hair. She put something that looked like a knife behind her back.
Zoe closed her mouth. Everything in her body said run away. The officer
walked up and placed his hand on her shoulder. She watched as he reverted to
a little man with big ears.Zoe dropped to her knees and pulled a knife from her 
jeans. She rolled and came up behind Puck. The point of the knife was on the nap of his neck,
"What the Hell is going on here?!"
