Ah, they believed he was Alfred just like Jackson. This was going to be... fun.
"Aw, I just came to see my awesome little bro!" Callum grinned a goofy Alfred-like grin. He tilted his head, just enough to catch sight of Ani behind Andrew. "Hiya, kid~" He nearly sung.

"Oh really?" Andrew sneered, grip tightening on his arms,"Last time I checked, I wasn't your 'little bro' when I left you and Jackson. And I thought I made it clear that I never wanted to see you ever again." he growled, glaring daggers at the man before him. He will never consider that man his brother ever. Not after he slipped and fell into that never ending darkness. That hunger for power.
"H-hi..sir..." Ani mumbled refusing to look at the man. She fiddled with the string at the end of her sleeve as she bit her lip,"H-h-how are you today...?" Of all the days she could've bumped into Alfred, why'd it have to be today, she thought, I can't possibly do anything with everyone around... but neither could he.

Callum did his best impression of Alfred's usual laugh, which was quite easy. He still debated over whether he was really the one and the same person because of such easy impersonations like that. "Oh, really?" He asked in a much more menacing tone as he regarded Ani. "I can't stay away from this little town for long. Though I'm only staying for a little while~ Hahaha, bet you missed me, huh? Jackson sure acted like he did." Ah, subtle sarcasm. Of course, Jackson was more hostile when he found out he was talking to Callum.

Andrew held his breath as he stared at Alfred in fear before it became anger. "What'd you do to Jackson? I swear if you hurt him, I'll shove my bayonet down your throat and fire." he snarled almost lunging at Alfred if it wasn't for the hand that caught his sleeve. He spun around to find Ani who gave a leveled look at Alfred.
"Now, now, Jeffy. We can't make a scene here, not with all these people around..." she narrowed her eyes at the Alfred.

Callum laughed hollowly. "Actually, I didn't do anything to him~! Gosh you're so paranoid of me. I swear you treat me like I'm Callum now." He smirked at that last statement, a very bitter smirk. Because half of that hurt him more than it hurt them. Masochist~~~ He could hear Alfred in the back of his head. And it made him grit his teeth.
"Don't ya worry, Andrew. He ain't done nothing to me." Jackson called from behind, looking as unamused as ever. When he finally reached the group he smiled slightly at Ani. "Hey, darling. How ya farin'?"

"Fine." Ani gave Jackson a small smile before narrowing her eyes at Alfred,"Although, it seems we've run into a small problem here." she yanked Andrew back making him stumble a little bit before he regained his balance. He gave Alfred a suspicious look.
"Callum... who's Callum and... what does he have to do with any of this..?" he glanced at Jackson before focusing his attention on Alfred again.

Ani gave Jackson a quizzical look before turning her attention on Andrew. She smiled and started tugging him along,"Come, Andrew. You will help me carry the seeds back to my cart." Andrew staggered for a bit as he was dragged by the arm.
"Okay, okay! Stop pulling!" he laughs before glancing back at his brothers, confused. He'll have to ask Jackson later who this 'Callum' was.

Jackson sighed at the other two, about to follow when he felt Callum's stare on his back. A whimsical smile spread across his face. He turned slightly, quirking an eyebrow. "Ya ain't around here to cause trouble, right?"
Callum smirked. "As far as they know I'm Alfred. And if that's how you want to keep it, then fine~ But I can't promise I won't cause trouble since everyone around here obviously think I am trouble." He smirked. Jackson still looked suspicious, but shrugged and moved on. Catching up to Ani and Andrew.
Can we get a burger? I'm starving, dude.
No, shut up you fool. Burgers aren't even good.
*le gasp* You take that back... you...
booty burner
Ugh. Alfred shut up.

When Andrew felt that they were far enough he halted which caused Ani to almost fall over if he hadn't grabbed her arm. Ani glanced back and gave him a puzzled look.
"Something wrong, Jeffy...?" Andrew glanced back to see Jackson catching up, he started to slowly pull Ani along.
"So... how do you know Alfred...?" Andrew whispered as he ducked his head a little.
"What do you mean? I've known Alfred for a long time. You know that, Jeffy." Ani frowned as she tilted her head a little. Andrew glanced back again before he turned back to Ani. His expression serious.
"Don't you think he's been acting a bit weird then...? Like... he wasn't himself... or maybe he was some different person all together...?" Ani bit her lip and smiled nervously at him.
"I don't know what you mean, Andrew... You haven't seen him in a while... maybe he's changed...?" Andrew stared at her suspiciously.
"And who's this Callum..?" Ani staggered a bit in her steps before regaining her composure. She kept her focus straight a head.
"Just... a friend of Alfred's... nobody special.." she mumbled feeling something pulling in the back of her mind. Clawing at her feet and telling her,' she was a liar, liar, liar..' She quickly shook her head.

Jackson didn't notice the conversation being held behind him, between Alfred and Callum, and in front of him, between Ani and Andrew (which would be much more possible considering Alfred and Callum are talking mentally.) So when he walked up to them he let out a sigh and gestured for them to move forward.
Eventually, after a few disgusted expressions and unamused looks going to and fro on Alfred/Callum's face, he followed suit and caught up with them as well. "Well, this must be some family reunion or something~ Hm, interesting. I believe this calls for alcohol."

"I thought I was kicked out of the family years ago after I left..." Andrew muttered as he stared ahead indifferently,"And I rather not drink with you Alfred..." he crossed his arms as they got closer to town.
Ani was silent with a blank expression as though she were in a trance of some sort. Her eyes kept fading from hazel to a reddish-brownish, she blinked rapidly hoping that the pounding in her head would go away. She jumped when she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see Andrew who looked concerned.
"Ani, you okay...?" Ani grimaced at the name before forcing a bright smile on her face.
"Why, of course, Andy~" she sang, Andrew blinked, surprised at the new name. Just as he opened his mouth the question her sudden joyfulness, she halted, "Oh, look we're in town already!" She turned to Jackson and grabbed his arm and started tugging him away from them.
"I'm just going to borrow Mr. Jacky here~" she smiled, waving her hand,"You and Mr. Ca- I mean Alfred, have some bonding time! Be back soon." she called out through clenched teeth as she started to tug harder on Jackson's arm.

"Oh, you were. But I forgive you." And Callum left it that. Strange. Very strange, considering it was he, not Alfred, who originally kicked him out in the first place. However, Alfred did little to stop him. Maybe he was tired of the kid, too. Callum laughed silently at the thought. Alfred wasn't such a goody-goody hero when it came down to it.
Jackson followed the girl, brows furrowed in question at her confusing change in character. "Ani...? No... your eyes." And with a grim expression he said, "Kiana."

Andrew flinched a little at how little meaning the words from Alfred meant and chose to just stare at the ground and kick dirt around. He frowned when he heard Ani had taken Jackson with her and left him with Alfred. Did she forget about the incident earlier?
"... So.. Alfred..." he narrowed his eyes at a small pebble,"... Do you really forgive or are you just lying... Cause I still don't consider you my brother anyway.." Lies he bit his lip as he kicked the small pebble hard.
Kiana smiled brightly at Jackson,"Bingo, Jackson~" she giggled as she pulled the man along. She slowed down a little when she felt that the other two wouldn't follow them. "Mr. Jackson, how long has it been since we haven't seen each other...? Days... weeks...months... years?" she sang as she kept a little hop to her step.
"It would've been a great seeing you again if you didn't have to drag that little brat around." She growled, she frowned and clenched her fist together,"He's such a bother to Alfred, I don't see why you have to bring him along."

Callum smirked knowingly at Andrew, eyes feigning warmth but with that mischievous glint to them. "Of course! Though," His smirk grew as his eyes darkened. "Sometimes forgiven doesn't mean forgotten." Then he was back to smiling quicker than the dark expression ever came.
Jackson frowned, but showed no signs of anger. Even though deep inside he was raging at the sound of her bad-mouthing his brother. "'Cause he ain't just my brat, he's my brother. And he's Alfred's brother, too. Whether he likes it or not."
