CH 1 REVISED
I do not own Eureka 7
This Fic will be about what happens after eureka and Renton return from space/the moon AFTER THE LAST EPISODE!!!!!!! SPOLIERS!!!!
This will be an ending/continuation of the end(or lack of one) of Eureka 7, It will be a NON WAR end, people can only take so much before taking a break to rest and repopulate. With several cities completely annihilated and the army decimated the people are a little wary. Not to mention that the Corileans have an unlimited supply of soldiers. So, yes, their wont be war in this Fic, their will be problems, but no war.
What I currently expect to occur is how Renton and Eureka, whom now has the butterfly wing things, actually live together with the people of Bellforest. How will they react? And don't forget the kids... enrolling in school when Renton only left it and didn't finish it... well that's where this fic is going for now. It might go another way later.
I DO NOT OWN EUREKA 7!!!!!!!!! (If I did it would have an ending and not an almost-ending)
Now here's the first chapter
Living in BellForest
Chapter 1: The Return!
"Are they going to arrive today?" Asks a young 6 year old girl who is dressed in a pink dress and speaks in a hopeful tone.
"Yes, I think they will Maeter, they have been getting closer recently and it seems like the light is coming down now." An old man says in an old gravelly voice, who is dressed in a white dress shirt with red shoulders and light brown pants that have red sides.
"YAY! Mama and Papa are going to be here soon!" Says an obviously excited young 5 year old boy whom is wearing a blue shirt that has yellow shoulders, sleeves and light grey pants. He also has a scar on the top left of his head.
"Yes linck, but we have to wait a little longer till they arrive. Axel, will mama and papa be hungry when they arrive?" Says an extremely mature 7 year old boy whom is wearing a white shirt with a light brown jacket and dark brown shorts.
"I don't know Maurice, but let's go near the restaurant by the hill for when they do get here ok?" Says Axel Thurston grandfather of Renton Thurston
"YAY!" shouts Maeter while Linck nods and smiles and Maurice gives a single nod.
The three children and the old man go to the top of a nearby hill and look up into the night sky. They are currently looking at a purple flashing ball of light that is getting closer every second. They also see the moon. Which now has a heart carved into it and 'Renton and Eureka' carved in side of the heart. The night is slightly cool and there is little wind. There is a street light not to far away considering the hill is next to a normal town restaurant. The restaurant has seeming nothing special about it, nothing that would make it exiting or especially different, but maybe that is the difference it is completely normal and has a relaxed feeling about it.
"Their going to be here any minute now!" said Maeter
"We just have to wait a little bit longer Maeter." Says Axel
The orb continued to get closer until it finally touched down on the hilltop. When it touched down the purple light disappeared, it was being made bye the red light from Renton's forehead and the blue light from Eureka's forehead. Renton and Eureka turn and look at the kids and Alex. Renton has the look and presence of a young man whom has seen and done many things that a 16 year old boy shouldn't of, but he also has the feel of one whom is completely at peace and in love. While Eureka looks like a mature, if slightly self conscious, young woman. She is also 16 years old and has the feel of one in complete love and will be all right with anything as long as she has this love. Eureka though is also very different just by looking at her, not just the blue hair or the purple eyes with a red circle in them but she has green butterfly wings, but only in the shape of butterfly wings, they are kind of thick, in the sense that their not butterfly thin, in fact they look like they have some sort of gel-like substance in them, and look very smooth. Both of them are at peace and looks very happy to have finally arrived.
"Mama! Papa!" Shouts Linck, Maeter, and Maurice as they run up to the duo and hug them.
"Linck, Maeter, Maurice! How have you been while we were gone? We missed you a lot." Said Eureka while going to her knees to hug them.
"Hey kids you haven't gotten into to much trouble while I have been gone have you?" Said Renton while smiling and hugging the four of them.
"Grandpa! Meet Eureka the most beautiful girl I have ever met!" Says Renton while standing and smiling at Eureka.
"Well nice to meet you again young lady." Says Axel while looking at the, now blushing, young women whom has wings. He also goes up and offers his hand for a handshake.
"Thank you mister Thurston." Eureka says while getting up and shaking his hands.
"Mama, papa, are you hungry?" Says Linck at this point.
"Of course their hungry, its dinner time and they haven't eaten in weeks! Hummp" States Maeter.
"grrrrrrrrrrr" Renton's and Eureka's stomach says rather loudly.
"Uh, hehe looks like food would be a good idea… Hey, aren't we near that restaurant Grandpa?" Renton says with one hand behind his head while Eureka blush's slightly.
"As a matter of fact yes we are." Says Axel Thurston to Renton. "Come on kids lets get to the restaurant so that your parents can get something to eat."
"Yes, mama they have really good food here, not as good as when you and Renton made some for everyone but good food anyway!" States Maeter.
"Well then let's go and eat." Said Eureka.
The kids start dragging Eureka and Renton to the restaurant while Axel walks behind them to it. When they go inside the bell on top of the door rings.
"Go ahead and find a place. I'll be their in a second to take your order" Says a waiter whom is in the back.
"This way mama! Let's sit here!" Says Maeter
"Ok." Eureka says smiling while being brought to a table by the assertive girl.
"Let's get a table for Eureka's wings, ok Maeter?" Asks Renton quickly when looking at the booth Maeter was taking Eureka to.
"Oh ya. Then sit at this table mama!" Says Maeter
"All right." Answers Eureka while everyone gets a seat. When Eureka sits down her wings are thick enough for her to rest against them on the chair without any discomfort and theirs enough room to either side so that no one ells is squishing them. Axel, Renton and Eureka Sit to a side, while Linck, Maeter, and Maurice Sit on the other side.
"Hello how can I help you today…….." The middle aged waiter says when comes up and abruptly stops when he sees Eureka and her wings. His face pales slightly as he looks at the girl and does not know what to do for a second.
Renton notices what he's looking at and his eyes suddenly become hard. He puts his arm around Eureka while the Waiter completes his sentence.
"Eh is that some sort of costume?" Asks the waiter in an undecided manner.
Eureka looks slightly startled then her eyes slide to the side and become sad and vulnerable looking. She then feels Renton's arm around her shoulder and she looks at him as he answers.
"No they are actual wings and I think that they look great." Says Renton in a quiet, but happy voice. Eureka looks less vulnerable along with a glint of happiness and love in her eyes. "You don't have any problem with that do you?" Asks Renton in a noticeably firm and unrelenting voice. While the look in
Eureka's eyes changes to a soft glow of love and gratitude.
"N-n-no not at all. Not at all! Well what can I start you all out with?" States the now decidedly confused and slightly less afraid waiter who is now looking around the table.
"Coke!" says Maeter in an excited voice as she has only vaguely understood the short conversation.
"Ya! Coke please! Asks Linck who only understood that the nice waiter had asked a question.
"I will take coke as well. Mama, what do you want?" Maurice asks who had mostly understood what had happened. He looks at the waiter with a small look of anger fuelled by protectiveness.
"Um i'll have some coke please." Says a now fully recovered Eureka.
"Same here" Says Renton letting his voice and eyes go back to normal.
"And you sir?" Asks the waiter looking at Axel.
"I'll have some coffee please." Asks Axel in a neutral voice. While slightly smiling at Renton and Maurice with pride.
"Then i'll be right back with the drinks." Says the waiter as he leaves quickly.
"Well has gramps treated you to the Thurston big burger tradition yet? Renton asks looking at the kids.
"Huh? Yes!" states Maeter and Linck quickly while Maurice just smiles and nodes.
"Big burger tradition?" Eureka asks confusedly.
"Ya, we have a nice, juicy, big burger here! Try it Eureka you will probably like it!" Renton says in an exited voice with his big smile.
"Ok" Eureka says while she smiles and blushes a little.
"Ok here are your drinks. What do you want to eat?" The waiter asks in a calm manner.
"We will all have the Big Burger with fries." Axel answers.
"All right be right back with that." The waiter says while walking away, though when he thinks he is a good distance away he looks at Eureka's wings again.
"So… these kids are both of yours? Axel asks in a way that's more a statement than a question, yet it also has undertones of something devious. His smile is small and sly when he says this.
"Uh, yep!" Renton says.
At the same time as Renton Eureka says, "of course."
"Now Renton…." Alex says this getting ominous when he is taking a drink "Why wasn't I invited to the marriage?" He ends with a teasing tone. While his eyes are expectant.
He wasn't disappointed. Renton almost spites out the drink he just swallowed and got some up his nose. "What? Umm we haven't I mean I haven't…" Renton says red faced and flustered.
"Ya!! Mommy and Daddy should marry!" Yells Linck quit loudly.
"Look, those wings are REAL! I was right up next to them and Renton said they were and no one contested him." Said the waiter to the chef back in the kitchen with exasperation and a little fear.
"Please, it's obviously some kind of costume add-on thing. People just don't have wings. Besides you believed Renton? I mean true he did join up with Gekko State for a bit but he's still probably full of stories!" Replies the chef in a self assured way. "Listen, i'll even go and give them their order ok? I need to catch up with Alex anyway"
"Sure I have no problem with that." The relieved waiter says.
"Ya!! Mommy and Daddy should marry!" Linck's yell is heard in the kitchen.
The chef and the waiter both look at each other with very confused expressions.
"Mommy and Daddy???" Says the chef with a strained, confused voice.
Both the chef and waiter peek around the corner into the restaurant only to see a very red, and slightly panicking, Renton with a look of embarrassed confusion at the situation. They quickly pull back from the corner and start to whisper to each other.
"Mommy and daddy??? But their so young!" Whispers the waiter
"Not only that but Renton hasn't been gone enough to have a single child let alone three!" Replies the chef still whispering.
"Maybe they are the girls." The waiter whispers back.
"Then who is their father and why is she so young?" The chef says his whisper now strained with confusion and exasperation.
"I don't know, maybe their adopted!" the waiter says his whisper rather loud.
"You know, you're probably right! Anyway the food is done so I better go and give it to them. While I'm at it i'll go ahead and see what I can find out." The chef says with is whisper dieing off with a note of finality.
"Uhh were not yet I mean ehh… Grandpa stop it!" Renton said with a full face blush while quickly glancing at Eureka to see her with a small blush.
"Hahahaha, fine Renton I will, hahaha." Axel answered.
"And here is your food folks. I hope you enjoy it." The chef says as he starts putting their food in front of them. "So are these kids yours young miss? He then asks Eureka.
"Yes" She answers with a smile as her blush fades.
"Adopted?" The chef asks.
At this Eureka's eyes dim slightly from memories but she answers without changing her voice. "Yes"
"She's our mama and always will be!" Maurice says loudly, almost daring the chef to deny it.
"Ya!" Maeter quickly agrees.
"She's mama!" Linck states along with Maeter.
"Of course I didn't mean any disrespect or to insinuate anything." The chef says trying to calm the 3 kids down. "Well, here's your check Axel, come in more often so we can catch up." The chef finishes before making a hasty retreat.
Eureka smiles happily at the kids. "Thank you, let's eat." She says.
"Ya food!" Maeter says now that the challenger to her perfect world was gone.
The chef hurries back into the kitchen and looks at the waiter and says to the waiter. "Yes, you were right they are adopted."
"Good, do you believe me about the things wings now?" responds the waiter.
"I say that they were real. You can't deny it when your that close without lying to yourself, and it's a she not a thing!" The chef both states and scolds.
"What? You're calling it a she? It has wings!" The waiter waves his arms around at this. "It has to be a Corelian. Those wretched things destroyed several cities and killed off almost the entire populations of them!" The waiter finishes in a whispered yell.
"Yes and don't forget that our military was decimated as well. We were defeated with only a fraction of them awake. Don't you remember the government's announcement that they gave us? If all the corelian's woke up the world would be sucked into a rip in reality as they overcame the limit of life! Besides that the crazy general attacked them first!" The chef temporarily stops his rampage as he takes a big breath and his body attempts to lessen the blood in his cherry red face."All right, all right I get the idea 'don't mess with the aliens that can blow us to bits' ok?" says the waiter as a peace offering to the chef.
"What? No! Well, yes, but that's not the point! We attacked them first, for no real reason. Besides she looks human and acts human, not like those monstrous things that attacked the cities or our military." The chef finishes peaking through the door.
"Whatever, you might have a couple of points… and your right she dose act human." The waiter agrees, also peaking through the door.
They both pull back into the kitchen quietly.
"Well SHE might be all right but the rest of them can just die. In fact we made a good fight of it, we just need to learn a little more and rebuild our fleet, only bigger! Then we can kill them off." The waiter says happy with the trade off.
"Grrrrrrrr, do you not understand 'rip in reality going to kill us all'?" The chef growls to the waiter.
"Umm ya, I mean well… ok you know what lets just drop it… Besides I wasn't meaning that girl, as long as she doesn't become a giant eyeball mouth people killing thing or a starfish mass murderer…" the waiter rambles getting a paranoid look on his face.
"She's with Renton, she won't now…" The chef is interrupted before he can continue any more by a bell ringing on the counter outside the kitchen.
"i'll get it." Quickly states the waiter as he goes through the door.
"Awwwhhhhhh" I yawned as I stood in front of the counter. I had told Eureka and the others to go on ahead and that I will catch up. The reason that I was staying and not letting Axel handle it was that I wanted to talk to the waiter a little bit.
"Ah Renton, what do you need? And where did Axel and that th--- Eureka go?" A tight lipped smile appears on his face and a slight sweat breaks out.
My eyes narrow at the near-slip and the edges of my vision turn red for a moment as I respond. "Eureka, grandpa and the kids are heading home, i'll catch up with them in a moment. Here's the money." I get out the money for the dinner and put it on the counter.
"Ah, yes, here's your change Renton." The waiter says as his smile becomes more relaxed as the for seen danger has been avoided.
I take the change and start to head out. When I'm at the door I turn around slightly and look at him.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot." I say as my eyes meet his and I let some of my determination seep into them.
"Eureka is a person, she's not a thing and if you ever call her that, or even get close to calling her that, I will make you pay." I look at him for a moment more, watching as his face drains of blood and he nodes quickly. At that I leave the restaurant and jog to catch up to my family.
The waiter stands there for a moment more to compose himself and then he heads back into the kitchen.
"So who was it?" asks the chef as he's cleaning up the kitchen.
"It was Renton paying for the food." The waiter pauses for a moment and then continues. "That kid has changed a lot."
"Huh? Renton? Really how did he change besides becoming a little protective of the girl he likes?" The chef says in what must be an "old man knowledge" thing.
"A little? He… Well your right, ya and umm i'll just close up." The waiter hurries the last of his statement because he doesn't want the chef to know that he almost called Eureka a thing in front of Renton.
"Good, well when you're done you can go." The chef finishes
'ok now to tell my buddies about this Corelian/Human girl and see what they think about it… well they probably wont believe me but they will when they see her… I just hope that they don't do anything to make her kill them.' The waiter thinks to himself as he finishes up.
I quickly follow the direction that grandpa told me that they would be walking.
I'm not to far away and I hear Maeter call out when she sees me. "Renton's here mommy!"
Eureka turns and I see her relax slightly and a smile graces her lips. Linck turns and calls out as well and Maurice just turns and smiles a little. Axel just looks toward me and they all stop till I reach them.
"Sorry that took a little longer than expected hope you didn't miss me." I grin at them and scratch the back of my head with my right hand.
"Come on lets get to the apartment." Axel says.
"Apartment?" I say with confusion.
"Yes, what did you think? Our house was destroyed when you left with the Gekko State and the warehouse was destroyed when we sent the Nirvash's board to you." Axel responds in a matter-of-fact kind of way.
"Ohh ya…" I reply slightly chastened and disappointed.
"Don't worry Renton, it's alright." Maurice says while looking at me.
"I'll trust you." I say as I walk along side Eureka.
I suddenly yawn and the idea of getting to a bed and sleeping was suddenly VERY nice. Eureka yawns slightly next to me, and I look at her with half lidded eyes along side a smile meant only for her.
They arrive at the apartment and walk, or in the case of Renton and Eureka stumble, inside.
"Where do we sleep?" Renton asks.
"This way Renton." Maeter says while dragging him and Eureka towards a door.
"Ok" Renton responds with a yawn.
Axel watches and fallows as Maeter leads them to a bed. Renton and Eureka get in the bed and then separate as the kids jump in to and get in the middle. He smiles as the five of them go to sleep.
