(continued from "what the cat dragged in")
Kail shuffled the foals into the bathroom, setting Sherbet down with her wings and starting to fill the tub with warm water and bubbles. She washed her sticky arms in the water while it heated up, then proceeded to search for a clean purple towel. She wasn't able to find one, but she did find a blue one with purple flowers on it - that would have to do. Grabbing two others, she turned off the faucet and turned to the foals with a tired smile.
"Alright, bathtime!" She scopped Sherbet up and put her in - the little filly squealing loudly as she played with the bubbles. The filly had found her second wind.

Gumdrop climbed over the side of the bath with a little trouble. She fell in headfirst and hurt her nose a little, and was about to cry, but then she saw the purple flowers on the towel. "Ooh!" She squealed. She sat next to Sherbert and said "Bubbles!"

Charm followed closely behind Kail as she and the other foals entered the bathroom. The sound of running water caused little ears to perk up. Standing on her tippy toes, Charm tried to see into the tub. Unable to see over the edge, she placed her hooves back on the floor.
An idea hit her. Jump! With all her might she jumped straight up so that she could see what was in the tub. Clear water with bubbles.
She moved closer to the tub. Again, she stood on her hind legs. Stretching up as far as she could, Charm attempted to stick a hoof into the warm soapy water.

Kail laughed at Charm trying to reach her hoof into the tub - sometimes kids were the best remedy for a bad mood. Kail picked her up gently with her wings and let her dip a hoof in before setting her down in the bubbles with the other two.
"Alright Explosion, you first." Kail grabbed a big pouf that was hanging from the shower cady and dumped it in the soapy water, scrubbing hard at the little ones fur to get all of the pancake batter out. Luckily all of the soap that was caked in just made the bath more bubbly, and wasn't very hard to get out.

Charm giggled as the water lapped over her hoof. It felt so warm. A delighted squeal escaped the little pegasus as she sat in the tub. Popping soap bubble after soap bubble, she was amazed each time they popped.

Gumdrop splashed in the water, accidently splashing some on Kail. "Oopsies!" She giggled a little goofily.
She looked over at Charm, and realised her wings for the first time. "Wings!" She looked to Kail and then back to Charm. "The smae!"

Kail giggled at the children, her sour mood almost completely gone. Why did she take care of the nursery and its inhabitants? This was why. So that they could have a place to stay with no worries, and perhaps she could get a smile out of them again.
When Kail was finished washing Sherbet, she gave the filly a big hug, setting her back down in the tub right as Gumdrop splashed her. Kail laughed again, "well then, since you are getting me all wet I think its about time for me to get you!" She filled the poof with water and then squeezed it over the filly's head, then started scrubbing all the soap and pancake goo off her.

Gumdrop squealed with laughter, and once Kail had finished scrubbing her, reached up, and gave her a big, soggy hug. "Favourite green pony!"

Kail gave a laugh - it wasn't easy being green She let Sherbet and Gumdrop play with the bubbles, which had doubled in amount with all the dishsoap that was now filling the tub. She turned to Charm next and scrubbed her gently. She seemed like such a precious little thing, like a tiny ceramic statue, and Kail didn't want to break her.

Harvest Moon trotted in, legs and rump slightly damp and soapy from his puddle play. "Hiiii!" He said cheerily to the other foals.

Sherbet had been slipping in and out of the bathroom while Kail had been out. The both came back in just before Harvest Moon and Kail and picked Sherbet up and dumped her back into the tub. "Your gonna help me clean this mess up, you know that right Explosion?"
Sherbet popped her head up on the side of the tub, "yep!"
"Ok, time to rinse!" Kail unplugged the tub and let the soapy water start to run out as Sherbet gathered as many bubbled into her hoofs as she could to save for as long as possible.

Gumdrop hid from the new pony under a towel. The towel got all soggy. When she realised what she had done she burst into tears. "So-so-sorry!" She hiccuped, and she hid her face in it. But she couldn't breathe, so she came up for some air, and went back down again.

Harvest Moon's brow crinkled. "What's wrong wi' her?" He walked over to where Gumdrop was hiding and nosed the towel.

Gumdrop lifted her face from the towel and stared. How dare he interrupt her crying fit? "Don't!" She squealed. And she tried to kick him, but he legs were to short, so she started crying again.

Luck was not with Dark today; First he was nearly frozen to death from the cold in the mountains from meditateing, and now, in a atempt to use his smoke bombs to relocate himself someplace warm, appered in the air over the toliet. "Aww, man. Not agaIAN!!!" Dark's fall was CLEARLY far from graceful. His head hit the toliet before the rest of him hit the sink.
He looked up at Kail, and tried to grin from his sudden concussions. "Hi ya, Kail. Hey, why is there three of you?" Dark's head hit the toliet yet AGAIN as he laided his head back. "OW!!! This isn't my day."
((OOC: I'm kinda asumeing this is AFTER the jump. And please don't be mad with me; I'm getting kinda bored not knowing where or who to post with.))#nosmileys
