Just to let you know, Cri Kee IS a girl in this story.

Mushu sighed as he looked up at the night sky with his body rested against the magnolia tree. In the distance he could hear the cries of a baby boy. He glanced at the house and saw Mulan through a window trying to calm down the baby. Man, that baby sure had strong lungs. He smiled. He felt happy for his baby girl and for that good for nothing, Shang. Shen, the baby, was born around a month ago and he rather liked the little guy. He could tell already he was more like his mother and he was secretly glad.

He turned his attention back to the stars. Cri-Kee jumped next to him. She looked at the crimson dragon in deep thought. Then she jumped onto his chest and sat there.

"What you thinking about?" She asked the dragon.

"Not much." Mushu replied. But Cri-Kee could tell he was upset about something.

"Listen to me, you stupid dragon. I know something is bothering you. You may be good at lying to humans, but not me. Now, what is wrong?"

Mushu glared at the cricket but sighed. "Do you think she doesn't need me anymore, I mean, now that she is a mother? She also as Pretty Boy by her side."

Cri Kee stared in shock. "What crazy idea is that? Mushu pork…"

Mushu glared at the nickname.

"She adores you. She may be a mother now and she has Shang, but remember that there are people out there that want her dead. What will happen if Shang can't protect her? You are her main protection, Mushu. Let alone her best friend. She will never give you up for anything. Never."

Mushu smiled down at the little cricket. "You know, for a lucky cricket, you also give great words of wisdom…" He smirked. "Tiny Kee…" He called her.

Cri Kee glared at him. "Nice comeback, lizard…"

Mushu groaned. "Dragon. Ugh…"

Cri Kee gave a small laugh. Mushu smiled at the cute little bug. "Thanks, Cri Kee."

"Don't thank me, Mushu." She gave a small yawn and collapsed over the dragon's chest. Soon, her breathing diminished to tiny snores. Mushu smiled gently at the cricket. 'She isn't so bad… kind of…' He thought. He looked back at the window where Mulan was singing a lullaby to the baby. 'Maybe she's right. Maybe Mulan still wants me around…' He looked down at the sleeping cricket. He placed a hand over her body to keep her from shivering. 'And I want her around.'

I'll probably give the story a few more one shots before I call it quits. I hope you like it since there's not enough Mushu love and Cri Kee love in this website.
