Stormer sighed as he rubbed his eyes, it had been almost two weeks and yet of his daughter had been nothing but silent. Refusing to speak a word and only talking in head movements and with her phone. And frankly for Alpha Team, being worried was an understatement, especially for Stormer and Furno being Siren's parents. Stormer made his way to Siren's room seeing through the door that was open a jar, Ruth on the woman's bed as Siren was at her computer, typing away vigoursly on it.

Stormer knocked on the door a bit as he opened it a bit gaining the two's attentions to him. "Hey dad." Ruth greeted as Siren waved a bit with a smile while her tail wagged a bit. "Hey you two," Stormer greeted, "I was just wondering if ether of you two were ready for dinner since Rocka and Surge are cooking it." He said, watching as Ruth stretched a bit. "Yeah, I'm definitely ready." The Church Grim replied as Siren made a fifty-fifty sign with her hand.

Stormer sighed, "Alright Siren," he said as he closed the door a bit. "Talk, you haven't said anything in almost two weeks and we're all getting worried for you kid, what's keeping you from talking?" Stormer said as he crossed his arms over his chest. Siren sighed as she pushed her keyboard aside to put her head in her arms.

"I don't know anything of it so don't ask-" "Papa..." Ruth was cut off by Siren talking making the ice hero and Church Grim look at the blonde Witch Shapeshifter. "Yeah kid?" Stormer asked as Siren sighed a bit while fiddling with her necklace he and Furno gave her for Christmas in her fingers, "Do you think I talk to much?" Stormer blinked in confusion at that one, "No, why in the name of the Holy Quaza do you think that?" Stormer asked her watching as Siren's tail tucked between her legs as it could at her desk chair.

Siren sighed, "Stacey always said that the reason I was bullied so much because I talk so much and never shut up..." She said, tears prickling the corners of her eyes which were the half-half of her Nightmaren yellow and Stormer's own eyes. Stormer sighed as he tried to calm his anger along with Virus, 'Course she said some bullshit like that to hurt Siren's mental state worse than it is already.' Stormer hissed in his head in irritation, the woman that was Siren's biological mother was always a frustration to Alpha team, it seemed like everyday they were all learning more new things that woman has put Siren through, though they were already furious as it was with the first news of the abuse and the scars.

Stormer was stopped from arguing with Virus of the split personality from Meltdown's Radiation wanting to set fire to Stacey's things by the sound of Siren sniffling her tears. Stormer knew Siren wanted to be tough for the team, even if it meant bottling her emotions and fighting to keep them at bay when they needed to be released. It wasn't the first and especially Ruth knew of that knowing Siren longer than the team, it was a bad muscle memory to do so having her needs and emotions pushed aside like a rotting leftovers in the fridge that hadn't been thrown out.

Stormer sighed as he crouched down next to Siren's desk chair and brought the woman in a hug, noticing immediately how she froze at that before finally breaking down in his arms as she hugged him back, terrified to even let go. Stormer didn't even bother with her mascara and eyeliner filled tears possibly staining his pure snow white armor as he continued to hug Siren while patting her head as she sobbed. It hurt Stormer's Quaza as her father seeing her this broken every time, wanting nothing more than to had taken her from that phyco home as his daughter before it all could even happen to her.

Ruth jumped off the bed and sat at the two's sides as he nuzzled Siren with his snout a bit, the Church Grim knew well of how to handle situations like these when it came to his owner when he was a normal dog whenever she cried from her bullies torment. Stormer didn't let go of Siren until he knew Siren was calm, it would take a while until then and he was more than patient to stay by her side to help her calm down, Siren was abandoned to many times she should've never been and Stormer wasn't going to make the list longer.

After a few minutes, Siren started to calm down, and unfortunately of that old muscle memory Siren bottled the rest up, calming down to quickly for anyone's liking as she started to clean her face up. Stormer knew it wasn't going to be easy to get that reflex of her away, it had been with her for years and it wasn't gonna be an easy task at all to rid that reflex. Siren noticed her eyeliner and mascara tear stains on Stormer's chest piece, "D-Dad your armor-" Stormer cut Siren off by resting his hand on her head, "Don't worry about it, I can wash that off in the shower later." He reassured her, "And to answer your question," Siren perked up at that, "I don't think you talk to much, it shows your willing to care for people around you." Stormer said, watching with a smile as Siren's tail wagged before she hugged him again.

Stormer laughed a bit as he hugged her back, "Thank you..." Siren muttered, Stormer patted her head, "No problem kid..." He said, 'You never deserved any of that to begin with, I just wished I was able to take from the sick place to begin with before it all happened.'
