ODDBALL'S BATH
HunterKai drags Oddball into the room. "Here he is." HunterKai holds a struggling Oddball.

Heather smiles at Oddball. "Hi, Oddball, are you ready for your bath?"

"NO" pouts Oddball. HunterKai drags Oddball into the large bathroom.

"This is for your own good." says HunterKai. Oddball makes a rude noise. Heather turns her gaze to Oddball, who is pouting and studying the floor. "OK, Oddball, take your clothes off and get in the tub."

"NO"

"Oddball." Heather glared at him. Oddball peeked out from under his matted hair.

"Turn round."

Heather sighed and smiled at him, "OK, I'll turn around." Heather turned around.

"No peeking." grumbled Oddball.

"I won't." Heather said trying not to giggle. After taking off his clothes, Oddball climbs in the tub. He sits in the warm water, arms crossed over chest. He wiggles around uncomfertably.

"No like, is wet, yukky uggy wet wet." Oddball makes a face.

With Oddball in the tub, The rest of the ladies came in. VisionAri walked into the bathroom and wrinkled her nose. "Wow! Has this boy EVER been in contact with water before?" She hands Heather a scrub brush and some Lava soap. "Looks like we have quite a job on our hands!"

Twilight comes in with bubble bath and boats. She drops them in the water, "Here Oddball,...just think of how nice you will look all cleaned up.I have some fine M&Ms you can have when you are done too."

Foxtrick comes in, wearing a sports bra and shorts, carrying shampoo, conditioner, soap, buff puffs, and a rubber ducky. "Whoa, this might be a 2 tub job... I guess we can start at the top and work our way down."

Heather lathers up the scrub brush and starts working on Oddball's shoulder and arm. She looks over at the soiled clothes, "I believe those should be... washed." HunterKai is amused at all the affermative nods from the ladies holding their breaths at the stench. HunterKai leaves the room with the clothes, taking half of the smell with him.

Foxtrick hum, "I wonder if your creator once owned my mom's dog Vicky. if so, judging by size, it might be a 3 tub job. and we should check for worms too!!!" She spots an earth worm in Oddball's hair. "wow!!! a worm!!! not the kind i was thinking of, but a worm never the less..."

Twilight pours a generous dollop of shampoo on Oddballs head and works it in. She calls after Hunter, "HunterKai? maybe we should just replace those clothes,there's plenty around that should fit him."

"Maybe you should burn them." VisionAri called out.

Heather leaned back and sighed. They had emptyed and refilled the tub four times and Oddball's hair still wasn't clean. Poor Twilight had become tired from scrubing out the dirt and VisionAri had taken over. Heather and Foxtrick had been battleing to get the dirt from under Oddball's fingernails, they were finnaly able to declare victory after almost an hour of scrubing.

HunterKai had taken Oddball's clothes and burned them. Kai13 and Kai10 had found some new clothes for him. Oddball had stopped pouting and seemed to be likeing all the attention. He didn't seem to mind the water anymore either.

Heather smiled at him, "I don't know about you, Oddball, but I think it was worth it. Under all that dirt, your actually quite cute. What do you girls think?"

VisoinAri smiled, "Definitely a cutie. Who knew there was a treasure buried under all this grime?" Dgre looked him over, "Hmmm, black hair, hazel eyes, a little crimson streak. He looks oddly... familiar. But, yes, cute." Foxtrick giggled, "He is a cutie, and a sweetie pie too!!!

"Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww. pretty ladies, nice ladies." Oddball peeks out from under his soapy hair and smiles slightly.

"I think we're about done." Heather pulls the plug to let the dirty water out as Twilight rinses the last of the suds out of Oddball's hair.

Foxtrick smiled, "So Oddball, do you feel better now that your all clean?

"If Oddball says yes, can play with bubbles????" Oddball gives her and the other ladies his sad puppy look. "Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze, pwetty peeeeeeeeeeeeze!!!"

Foxtrick pretends to think deeply, "Ladies? Since Oddball has been so good and took his bath, should we let him have some fun with the bubble bath?" The ladies smiled and chimmed in as one, "Yes!"

"WHOOOO HOOOOO!!!" Oddball shouted as Heather filled the tub back up with water and poured in the bubbles.
