“Uhhhhh….. no they don’t and…… Kraglin knows how to strip one for parts…. as for how to operate it….I don’t think so….”

Carlos frowned. “Maybe we oughtta pick them up rather than just wait for them to come to the house,” he suggested. “Dad has a car we can drive. My Driver’s license shouldn’t be expired. I think.”

Looks at him. “And… how am I supposed to hide? You want me to come out in daylight?” Looks at him nerviously.

“Uh– oh…” Carlos said softly. “I’m sorry, I forgot about that. Um… maybe Mikey and I can go. And you can stay here with Dad?”

“Yeah…. they should be next to my ship….and I’ll hang out with your old man. Who knows I might be able to help him out around here or something.”

Carlos smiled at him. “Like planning for lunch or dinner – you know better about what the boys can eat so it’d be a great help. Speaking of which… should we go get some breakfast?”

Yondu nods and looks at him with a sigh before tugging him into a light kiss before pulling back and heads down stairs to the dinning table. “Something smells delicious in here. Morning wheels. How are you?”

Mikey looked up from his plate, blinking a little sleepily. But he grinned and waved. “Hey, Eiffel 65! I’m not too bad!”

“Mikey, don’t make references Mr Yondu can’t understand,” Mr Ramon chided gently with a smile.

“He’ll understand them soon, I promise!” Mikey said with a grin. “Hey – sit down, you guys. Dad went all out this morning.”

“Of course I did! I’ve got four grown men to feed!” Mr Ramon laughed. “And a homecoming to celebrate as well! This’ll be the first breakfast since last Easter that we’ve all had with Carlos.”

Yondu smiles a bit about to sit then blinks at the door as someone knocks on it. His com beeps a few times and he answers. “Peter?”

“Heya! Hope we’re at the right house. I’m tired! Krags dragged me out of bed! And the hike… seriously!”

“Carlos was going to come pick you both up. You were supposed to call me before you got here.” Smirks at the silence then the loud whine of exhasperstion.

Mikey sighed and backed away from the table. “I’ll get the door… you guys hide in case it’s one of our neighbors.”

Carlos took Yondu’s arm and pulled him so that they weren’t in view of the front door. “Is Kraglin with you, Pete?” he asked through the comm.

“I ain’t lettin’ his ass outta sight on a planet like this,” Kraglin responded. “He still probably has a wanted status here…”

Mr Ramon frowned at that, but didn’t say anything.

Peter groans. “I came back once and a group of punk teens thought I looked weird so I taught them a lesson… so sue me…”

Yondu rolls his eyes and peeks to see who Mikey was opening the door for and sighs seeing it was just his two idiot boys.

Kraglin was mildly surprised at the sight of Mikey, but his expression quickly returned to stoicism. “This is… the Ramon house, yeah?” he asked.

Mikey blinked up at him. “Yeah, it is,” he said. “Can I help you?”

Kraglin huffed softly. “Carlos and Yondu – they’re here, right?”

“Oh! Yeah, come in!” Mikey backed away a bit for the two and offered his hand. “I’m Mikey – I’m Carlos’ brother.”

Peter shoved Kraglin over and out of the way. “Yo wheels! What’s shakin! Ohh I smell food! Krags get off the floor bro! They got food! Like good good food!!”

Kraglin growled at the boy, a practically murderous glare in his eyes. He pushed himself up and reached out, quickly pulling him into a headlock. “You little shit – where the hell‘s yer decency??” He snarled.

Mikey was so surprised that he started to wheel back. “Uh…”

Peter yells and struggles to get out of the head. “Krags!!! Bro! Ow!! Let gooooooooo!”

Yondu shakes his head. “Oi! Peter settle down Kraglin let him go. Honestly you to….peter that is Mikey… have some blasted decency….now behave or I’ll put you both on bathroom duty.”

MIkey quickly closed the front door, while Kraglin just huffed and let Peter go, not caring if he fell to the ground or not.

Carlos poked his head in, and then hurried over to the two. “I can’t believe you two walked here! That was at least ten miles!”

“We took some shortcuts,” Kraglin said to him. “One of those big fury bear critters yelled at Peter an’ scared him though – that was funny as hell!”

“A bear?” Carlos asked, worried.

“Looked like one. Though not as stocky, and it had a droopy face and a tail.”

“I told you it was a dog! Not a bear…… or maybe it was a badger… I dunno. But it was owenedcby someone.,had a red neck tie. Looked at like Kraglin. You could be related.” Laughs and hides behind carlos.

Kraglin glared at Peter, snarling lowly. Carlos got nervous with Kraglin’s anger, but he cleared his throat and looked at Peter. “Pete, take it easy. Don’t make a nuisance of yourself. Have you guys eaten yet?”

“Ohhh What yer daddy don’t know carlos…. I’m a ravager…. we’re like….. ahhhh space pirates as petey calls us..”

Mr Ramon frowned slightly. “Space pirates,” he repeated.

Carlos folded his arms. He looked at the tabletop and nodded. “Yeah…”

“As in… stealing stuff and plundering pirates?” Mikey asked.

Yondu nods. “That would be accurate. We steal… take jobs for clients hunting for rare objects… tomb robbers… hunters… treasure hunters… that’s us…”

“And how did you end up with them, Carlos?” Mr Ramon asked seriously.

Carlos sighed. “I was, uh… abducted. Again. But they don’t make a habit of doing that sort of thing – it’s against their code to kidnap sentients against their will, unless it’s for a bounty-hunting job.”

“Then what was this case? Did you get in trouble with someone?” Mr Ramon asked.

Carlos swallowed slightly. “No… they needed someone to work on their engines. And… I happened to have the skills needed.”

Yondu nods. “See my boys went to the station yet boy was. They were tasked with hiring a mechanic… my terran boy saw this guy and well… got interested… Well the nova Corp… uhhh kinda like galactic police don’t like us much. My boys nabbed you boy as a last dich resort and well….. was a good one. He was more then we’d ever thought. Because something special to the crew…. my boys… and… to me…”

“I chose to stay with them,” Carlos said. “Not only was Yondu willing to give me passage home, but… I learned to appreciate them for who they are. And the ship has gone through a massive overhaul in the crew and we’ve made the ship a better place to be on.”

Yondu looks to carlos and smiles nodding in agreement. At that moment his com started beeping and he nods to them before getting up and taking the call a little bit away. “Yes Kraglin. Petey. What is it?” Blinks as peter pushes Kraglins head away from the screen. “Hey when do you want us to head down?”

Kraglin growled on the communicator. “Peter, I swear to the Watchers I’m gonna gut ya if ya don’t sit still!” Peter was shoved away and Kraglin reappeared. “Cap’n… what’s the situation – did you find Ramon’s family?”

“It’s Kraglin and Peter,” Carlos explained to his family in a hushed tone.

“What are Watchers?” Mikey asked, to which Carlos just shrugged.

Yondu rolls his eyes. “Kraglin be nice to peter. Peter stop annoying Kraglin. For Anthos sake…yes we found his family. Just had a home cooked meal you both missed. Peter you can thank Kraglin for missing it as he was being a grump and didn’t want to come with.” Smirks as peter groans and starts crawling on Kraglin. “Boys boys! Peter stop pulling on your brother before he bites you. Now you both have a chance tomorrow morning to hop on a mship and come here for food and shopping. Kraglin you are to be on your best behavior… that’s a order.”

“Aye, Cap’n,” Kraglin murmured. “But all due respectin’, you told me to stay an’ watch the ship. It ain’t my fault Pete didn’t go with you.”

“Did I? Huh. Guess I wasn’t thinking…. anyway. Bright eyes and bushy tailed. Petey…. you can sleep in Kraglins bed tonight right?”

Peter nods and hugs kraglin around the neck.

“Just don’t wet the bed.”

“Oh my god!!! That was years ago!!!! You gonna ever stop bringing that up!! Yeeesh!!”

Yondu smirks. “And when you boys head down stay in invisible mode. Don’t need to attract and try dressing…uhhh terran..”

Carlos looked up from where he was sitting. “Peter’s fine – Kraglin should wear some pants though.”

Kraglin seemed to cringe a bit, hearing Carlos’ words. “… Fine,” he murmured, though Carlos would have been unable to hear him.
