Little Rahne was obviously affected by what had transpired in the penthouse. Ruby had gotten angry and yelled at them. The wolf girl saw him as her savior and protector, Beta assumed, and she didn’t totally understand what was going on. She backed away from them with her tail tucked between her legs, so to speak. The poor girl was traumatized and she was basically a wild animal that they were trying to domesticate even though she was a mutant just like them. Beta couldn’t imagine the things that had happened to her before Ruby found her at the abandoned lab. She wasn’t used to the commotion and the normal comings and goings of the civilized world. Beta also wondered how long it would take to bring her around so that she would be comfortable and well adjusted for the world.

Ruby seemed to like the idea of pizza. The contracted women of the night that he was going to hire for late afternoon work didn’t seem to be as agreeable as pizza. Ruby reminded Beta of the last time that he brought some of the ladies home to call. Lorelei didn’t take it well. Saying she was possessive was an understatement. The young woman, Candy D. Light did take well to being stabbed by the morphing mutant. Come to think of it, she probably wouldn’t take well to being stabbed by anyone. That was a mess. Fine enough, however, Beta could deal with an extra lady.

Beta was going to make an exit and get things ready for his lady guests but Ruby asked him to help console Rahne. That was a little awkward. She usually stayed around Ruby and Beta didn’t know how to interact with the girl. She was a mutant but she was still so primitive and animalistic. What would he say that would be demeaning? James walked around and sat on the couch. “C’mon girl,” he said. “Things are okay. Alex doesn’t know what’s really going on. He’s not going to take you away from us.”

Rahne inched forward carefully, confused yet guilt ridden over whatever she had done to make Ruby mad at her. She just didn't know what it was, but it must have been bad, or he wouldn't be so upset.

"Sorry, so so sorry," she whispered, her legs quivering a bit with each step. "Never never be bad again, never again, please no burning me, please please..."

She threw herself down in front of the couch, sobbing lightly and pressing her face into Ruby's shins. There was of course, no frame of reference for the "burning", they would have no idea what she meant, or at least wouldn't know exactly. As with many things Rahne said, it was possible to guess from her tone and words as to what had happened, as to what she meant.

"I'll be good, I'll be so so so good... Promise, forever and ever," she didn't dare to look up into Ruby's face, her fear of his anger almost paralyzing her on the spot.

She still had no idea what she had done, or why he was mad, but she felt she had no choice but to assume it was her fault and to try to placate him before he threw her out or worse.

[size0]Say the dog and butterfly,
in the air they like to fly.
Dog and butterfly.
She knew she had to try,
and she float back down to the warm soft ground,
laughing - she don't know why,
but she had to try, she had to try.
Dog and Buttefly.

The girl's tears pissed Ruby off more, but not at her, no, she couldn't help it. She was what she was and that was something that he wasn't going to fuss about, but damn no mutant should be a cowed dog, ever. He took the girl by the shoulders, and pulled her up onto the couch, between himself and Beta, the other man sitting a bit closer than Ruby liked but hell, this wasn't something to comment on at the moment. "Hey," he said, firmly, but not angrily, "Hey, Rahney, look at me, look at me."

When she looked up, he said, "No one's taking you nowhere, ever, and anyone who tries is going to get a face full of optic beams, you got me? Look Rahney, if I get mad at you, that doesn't mean I am going to throw you out, or hurt you, or burn you, whatever the hell those monkeys who had you did to you. Look at me. I ask only a little of my people, and I give you all a pretty damn cushy life here for it. I do that because I am a self centered fuck and you are all useful to me, yeah, and Alex is right, maybe Jus Soli is a better place for kids like you. But, part of being a selfish opportunist is that when I got something good, I hoard it jealously. You belong here with me in my family, because I like you, I like having you around, and I want to help you grow up to be the powerful and happy mutant woman I know you can be. You're my girl, Rahne, you belong here with me, and even if I get mad, you're going to be my girl."

Ruby passed his hand over his head, smoothing his short but perfectly styled brown hair, and muttered, "Jesus, Beta, am I really doing the right thing by you guys? I mean shit, maybe Alex has a point. You're rich, right, you've got everything you want, but I ain't making much headway with Rahney, and the rest of you. If I get pinched again, have I taught you kids how to survive?"
