*Malefica was prepared. She caught Gawain deftly up in her arms before he fell. Then she smiled and placked him on his stomach on the carpet again. She placed his toy car just out of his reach.*
"Can you get your car, Gawain? Come on, sweetie, you can do it."
*She said, encouraging him.*

Hades leaned his head back and slowly drifted to sleep, Dominique on his lap.

*Malefica found a blanked and walked quietly up to her sleeping cousin. She tucked the blanket gently around Hades and Dominique, kissed Dominiques red curls and returned to pick up Gawain. Merlin retreaded to his study, and Malefica went to her old bedroom, bringing her baby with her.*

After Malefica was gone and Hades made sure of it, he began to shake the girl on his lap "Wake up, come on ya little red puff, wake up!"

***NEW NIGHT/EARLY MORNING***
*Gawain was quiet the entirety of the three hour trip back to the fortress, but he did not discourage Nightfall from following. Once in the building, he began searching the rooms systematically, looking for Malefica.*

*Nightfall entered the building following Gawain like a shadow. She too was silent, leaving Gawain to his thoughts. When she arrived the building, she helped him look for his mother.*
"Do you want to speak to her alone, or do you want me to come with you?"
*She asked gently.*

"It matters not." *Gawain answered, keeping his gaze fixed on the task at hand.*
"I do not know of any matter that my mother would not share with you. If it is your pleasure to join us."

*Nightfall smiled.*
"If you don't mind, I think I join you. That way, you don't have to tell me about the conversation afterwards."
*She looked around in the fortress, and noticed that the door to Malefica's workroom was slightly open.*
"I think your mother is in her workroom. When the door is open it means she is not too busy to receive visitors. She told me that the first time I came here."

((Congrats on passing 1000 posts, Brandi! )) *Malefica was indeed in her workroom. She was reading a new book about world history, trying to find some clues on how to defeat Lilith in the next fight she felt would come. When she heard her son's voice in the hallway, she brightened up in a smile and stood up from her chair. She hurried out in the hallway and embraced her son lovingly.* "Gawain! My beloved son, how wonderful to see you again. And Nightfall too! Is the expedition already over?"

"No." *Gawain answered quickly, stepping into the room.*
"But I have some questions. Is it true that you set Nightfall to watch out for my safety?" *He was rushed, but the curiosity in his voice was genuine.*

*Malefica smiled and looked lovingly at her son.*
"Yes, it is. You know that I love you and don't want you to get harmed. I am your mother. I can't help I feel worried about you every time you are away from me, and I can't keep you safe. No matter how old you are, you will always be my little boy. I can still see you as the baby I cradled in my arms."
*She lifted her hand and caressed his hair gently, smiling when she remembered how soft his hair had felt when he was a baby.*

*Gawain stood his ground, but his eyes read that he was thinking.*
"If you charged her with protecting me, something that requires great martial skill and strength, then why did you send me after her? You told me I should go protect her."

*Malefica smiled and looked over at Gawain, shaking her head.*
"Gawain, you are big and strong, with great skills to defend yourself. Nightfall is a part demon, and as such, she knows the evils in the world, even though she is not strong enough to fight them on her own. You are innocent and naive, but Nightfall, who has proved her cunning skills and her brains through the pranks she did in her childhood, will be more likely to discover it if something evil will threaten you. She is protecting you against those who wants to take advantage of your innocence."
*She looked over at him.*
"With your strength and her cunning intellect, you fulfill each other, and thus, you can protect each other."

*Gawain continued to process the information.*
"You wanted us to consummate our love, did you not?"
*His eyes sought hers, trying to figure things out.*

*Malefica smiled mildly.*
"I did. I have always told you that it is not wrong for a Guardian to love someone. Many of the Guardians were married, and their wives were useful resources in our fight to protect the Grail."
*She looked over at her son.*
"Did you consummate your love?"
