Fast Thinking
Knowing that she would not have time to answer Lisa's questions--ones about Dragon that particularly were a touchy subject within the Dragon Dynasty--Nissa said, "Forgive me, but those subjects are classified--except for Jupiter. You'll have to be more specific on which Jupiter you speak of. There is the planet, two roman gods, the use in astrology, five locations, four human vehicles, two human wepons, sixteen songs, four businesses, two machine projects, military plans, a railway, and an apple cultivar."

Suspicion [2]
Focused on her current project--creating a smaller pulsing rift node--Ikkit reached for her catalytic awl. Patting the spot where the awl SHOULD be, Ikkit glanced up and saw that the tool was gone. Shooting her gaze over to Tikki, Ikkit saw with annoyance that her sister was playing with a mini solar system.
After a few seconds, Tikki realized that Ikkit was glaring at her and turned around with a pathetic excuse for an "innocent" smile on her face. Ikkit angrily pointed at the empty spot where the catalytic awl should be sitting. Bowing her head, Tikki pointed up four times--the awl was in the attic.
Placing her forepaws on her hips, Ikkit glared at Tikki and flicked an ear. Tikki put her forepaws behind her back and dug a rear paw into the ground shamefully. The two remained like that for about a minute before Ikkit headed for the attic.
Reaching the ground floor, Ikkit stepped out of the hall into the living room. Pausing, she stared up at Nissa the android, Nerissa the hologram, and Nerissa Altsoba on the display screen--and their new friend.
"Another time," Nissa said to the other android and its counterparts. Looking down at Ikkit--who was only knee high to the android--she said, "How may I be of service, Ikkit?"
Ikkit looked at the three replicas of one girl standing next to the three replicas of Dragon's ship's computer.
"This is Lisa," Nerissa Altsoba said from the display screen. "She is to Chazu what I am to Dragon."
Ikkit only stared.
"Lisa and I have combined our data bases to determine the exact location of where Dragon may be hiding at this moment," Nerissa, the hologram said. "To see if she is in any kind of danger."
Ikkit only stared.
"I have yet to ask AUNTIE-D," Nissa, the android said. "I am unable to contact her at this time."
Ikkit produced a wrench from within her lab coat.
"It is not that," Nerissa replied. "I am under orders from Lord Avondale."
Ikkit flicked an ear. After a minute or two, she continued on up to the attic.

Rose's House
"I also could restore my jaw," Larkin said cryptically. "However, I prefer to go without. It reminds me of mistakes I've made."
Lord Avondale smiled so softly that no one would be able to tell. Though cryptic at what mistakes she spoke of, Lord Avondale was impressed at Larkin's wish to remain maimed. Glancing up at Chazu when he asked for everyone to move to the left, Lord Avondale was surprised to see yet another Chazu storm in from behind the first.
Though it wasn't the first time he had come across doppelgangers--it was actually pretty normal in the Dragon Dynasty--it was rather surprising because the two went outside to fight. Though he wanted to keep an eye on the two--Lord Avondale remained at Rose's side.
"Lady Rose, you must fight against Wolf's feelings," Lord Avondale said calmly. "Do not become consumed by them."

Lost
Wolf attacked in a fury of blows from his massive paws that were part hands and slashes of his razor sharp teeth--though for every one he landed, the creature landed four. In the back of his mind, Wolf knew that by themselves, the wounds were very minor--but together, they could become serious by making him loose too much blood.
"BROTHER!" Wynn cried from somewhere behind him.
Distracted for only a moment, Wolf glanced over his shoulder to see a purple and a red dragon land beside Wynn--and rising up behind the three of them was Shalimar. Due to his distraction, the creature dealt a massive blow that sent Wolf flying. Slamming into a rock so hard his spine was broken, Wolf sank to the ground and passed out in a sitting position.

[2] Imagine this conversation between TIkkit
...Ikkit: *dangerously* Tikki?
...Tikki: *as innocently as possible* Yeeeeees?
...Ikkit: Where's my catalytic awl?
...Tikki: *sighs* In the attic.
...Ikkit: What is it doing in there rather than on my workbench?
...Tikki: ...I was playing with it.
...Ikkit: Why?
...Tikki: I wanted to make my own experiments...
...Ikkit: You don't use catalytic awl to make experiments.
...Tikki: I know...now...after the mess.
...Ikkit: Next time you want to borrow something of mine, ask. While I'm gone, don't touch ANYTHING.
...Tikki: Yes'm.
Also, Lisa *MAY* be a little curious as to how the Nerissa's/Nissa knew what Ikkit was thinking.
