Interspecies Adoption Program (Good Intentions) (Patreon)

((Y/N)'s POV)

I spoke with this lady for a little bit now and found out that her name is Lala, and she already knew my name. She went on how she was a servant of death and stuff, but I think she was just one of those goth people with dark clothes that match how they are on the inside. She seemed nice so far and when we finally got to the questions, they were... Well, they were kind of weird to ask, and it goes against one of the rules Ms. Smith gave me. "Don't give out any information that seems private or answer any questions that are nobody's business unless they are agents in her department"... She doesn't look like an agent or someone that works for Ms. Smith.

Lala-Now... Why do you insist on having so many mothers?

(Y/N)-Um... I-I don't think I should answer that.

Lala-Why not?

(Y/N)-It's a rule, but I can tell you they are all really nice and love me... I-I should get going.

I tried to leave with my ball to get back to the game, but then I heard someone, and they sounded familiar.

Man-Hey, brat!

<figure></figure>

They were both here again and they looked mad at me, and they were on the way to my house, so that way was blocked now. I backed up from them a little because I think they wanted to hurt me now, and I can't run faster than an adult. I wished Rachnera or Centorea were here since I think they are the strongest moms I got, so I was about to scream for them, but that woman ran up to me and stopped me while I was in the middle of screaming for help.

Man-And who the hell are you?!

They were both looking at Lala and she had the same look on her the whole time. I took this chance to bite the lady's hand and scream some more.

Woman-Ahh!

(Y/N)-MOM!!!

Woman-You! Brat!

She was about to hit me, but then something was thrown at her and when we all saw what it was... IT WAS ONLY HER HEAD!!!

Man/Woman/(Y/N)-AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

Just then the fence to my backyard was busted down and Centorea came out with Miia and Papi to see the woman holding me by the shirt.

<figure></figure><figure></figure><figure></figure>

Centorea-Unhand our son!

Miia-W-Wait... DID THEY CUT HER HEAD OFF?!

(Ms. Smith's POV)

I go inside for not even 10 minutes, and everyone is screaming outside and when I got out there, I saw there was a hole in the fence. I ran to see the scene and when I did, I saw (Y/N) being held captive by some woman, a man was with her, they all looked scared, and I saw... Lala's head on the ground.

<figure></figure><figure></figure><figure></figure>

I was gonna ask what was going on, but based on the last report and description, I think I have a pretty good idea, and when (Y/N) snapped out of it, he broke free and ran to Papi crying to hold on to her. They probably think she was dead when she's completely fine, but this was my chance to call the police. That didn't stay on my mind for long when that man suddenly charged for them and looked like he was about to do something drastic and I don't have my gun with rubber bullets with me, right now since I thought this was going to be a relaxing evening. My heartrate spiked as I feared for (Y/N) getting hurt, but then a web was wrapped around his legs then he fell only inches away from (Y/N).

Rachnera-Looks like someone didn't learn their lesson from last time. *chuckles* ~

I turned to see Rachnera on the fence and I tell from behind that smile, there was annoyance in her eyes.

<figure></figure>

That's when the woman tried to run up and I can't let her get away to cause more problems or actually hurt (Y/N) later. Just as she was about to get away, she tripped over herself from her lack of balance and hit the trashcans to knock Lala's plastic 'toy' down then her body picked it up and she even had her head in her arms to make her look even more horrifying.

<figure></figure>

Woman-*Hyperventilating*!

Lala-The child is for death's servant to judge... All will be judged now, including you.

Woman-AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

Lala only lowered he scythe down in front of her, and I guess the woman's depth perception was not very great right now or she wasn't thinking rationally anymore, it made her pass out... These would be punishable by law under normal circumstances, but one was to protect a child under this program and the other was not even an assault.

Ms. Smith-All of you, inside now. As for you Lala, please put your head back on and put that toy away.

Lala-It is not a toy.

Ms. Smith's mind-Sure it's not.

((Y/N)'s POV)

Papi was still holding me in her lap while I held on to her and didn't let got and her feathers felt so soft and warm. It did help me stop crying while police were here to get a story from my moms, and Rachnera told them what happened last time, so the police took those mean adults away. When they left, we all turned to Lala then Manako put a note on the table while Ms. Smith adjusted her glasses. I just nuzzled into Papi some more and she rubbed my whole body with her feathers. After all my crying, I just wanted to rest and to not even think about this, so I just buried my face into her then she curled up with me a little and played with my hair while giggling.

(Y/N)'s mind-This feels nice.

Ms. Smith-Did you write this note?

Lala-Death told me too.

Zombina-'Death' told ya too?

Lala-I saw how many humans uncomfortable or even overheard others were wanting to hurt them for many reasons. I had to see and find out things for myself and is the child or 'mothers' aware of the dangers that were coming.

Rachnera-So your first thought was to write a threatening note, stabbed to our door?

Lala-A warning. I heard many threats from others. Some against monsters, others acting off the sin of envy. The child had to make a choice or be put in danger.

Threats?... Do other people want to hurt us for being a family? Are a lot of other people just as mean as the bullies at the orphanage? I peeked to take a look at Lala and saw her looking at me and her cheeks were kind of pink this time.

<figure></figure>

I didn't know what to think about her because of all this stuff that was going on now. That's when Ms. Smith looked like she was thinking things over before she smiled.

Ms. Smith-So you, 'a servant of death' care about a child and want to protect him?

Lala-... My intentions were to judge the child and see if he knew what he was doing. He clearly did not, and the mothers weren't paying attention much to others.

Ms. Smith-You're right, they didn't when their backs were turned... You did though and wanted to help... You care about him and thought he was too cute to let get hurt, didn't you? ~

Lala-N-No! I only came to judge!

Ms. Smith-Then why didn't you leave when that couple came to cause trouble. You helped.

Lala-That's not-!

Ms. Smith-And here I thought, my most challenging match up would love to be in a home with others like her. Now she can't take her eyes away from a loving home.

Lala's face was getting redder, and it did look kind of funny. I thought this would be fun, so I got off of Papi to go up to her, but she only scooted back into her chair. The others only watched as I crawled up the arm of the chair to get closer to her. Miia was about to grab me to pull me away from her, but she accidently nudged me, and I fell on to Lala's lap on accident. I tried to get up, but it was a little hard, and the whole time Lala was kind of freaking out until Miia took me off her.

Miia-Don't go up to strangers like that! That's rude!

(Y/N)-S-Sorry.

(Lala's POV)

I did my best to try and collect myself while the boy's mothers all spoke with him, but Ms. Smith and her squad members had their eyes on me. I can't be seen as another soft mortal. I am supposed to be a servant of Death, one that fore fills their will. While I was in my thoughts, Ms. Smith gave me a pamphlet that said... "Interspecies Adoption Program".

Lala's mind-The adoption program?! I came for cultural exchange and to spread the word of my existence and duties!

I looked up to Ms. Smith and she was smiling down to me.

<figure></figure>

Ms. Smith-I can tell how much you want to be a part of this... Think about it.

She walked away to probably get the paperwork for this while the others went back to the BBQ, games, and stuff. My eyes fell back on the child, and I should not be having these thoughts of... his cute chubby cheeks, or those shiny eyes of his, and his adorable little ears and nose.

<figure></figure>

Lala's mind-I'm supposed to be mysterious! You can't dote on a child and be mysterious!... I can't sign these papers!

(Timeskip 45 Minutes)

The food here was delicious and for some reason, Miia was banned from the kitchen. I did feel a little ashamed of myself... or at least I tried to feel shame while I was signing these papers and enjoying some juice.

Lala's mind-What am I doing?
