Loonakids: Search for Spock—NOT!

OK, I hope this one turns out better then that last one. I put all that thought into it and ended up with writer's block and then I finally get it flowing and can't write it out like I want it and have to cut it short! Anyway...just a recap:

Tech is alone on a meteor and sets off a bomb to destroy the meteor, killing himself in the process.

And that's about it. Yeah, if only Kelly had been able to stop him, right? Well, looks like she's about to get another chance to...

Chapter 1

A youngish female coyote was sitting in a chair next to a crib in a nursery. She gazed down at her 3 children, who were all asleep.

The door opened to reveal another female coyote, who seemed about half her age. "Hey, Mom."

"Hey, Sarah."

Sarah came into the room and closed the door. "It's been 2 months."

"I don't want to talk about this." She got up and walked over to the window.

"Mom…"

The older coyote turned to face her.

"Just say it."

It looked like she was now crying. "I miss him."

"We all do. But if you love someone, you'll let them go. And if they really love you, they'll come back."

"Not if they're dead."

Sarah threw her hands up. "Mom, I'm not really good at this. This is the first time I've really helped someone get past their mourning. I didn't even talk to Dad when you were d—" When she saw her mom's sad look, she realized her mistake. "I'm sorry, I—"

"It's OK, Sarah, I need to get over him."

"OK, and I talked to Ryan, Michael, and Kelly and we all agree we don't want a step-father, so—"

"Not like that."

Sarah smiled.

"By the way, where is Kelly?"

"She's…somewhere."


(Hilary Duff's "Come Clean" plays in background)

Kelly was on the balcony of the tower, gazing out at the town/planet that lay in the sunshine before her. Suddenly, someone came up behind her and wrapped their arms around her waist. She smiled. "Hey, Austin."

Austin Wolfe, her grey and white wolf Vampire boyfriend, was indeed behind her. "Hey, Kelly."

Let's go back

Back to the beginning

Back to when the earth, the sun, the stars

All aligned

"It's so different without him."

"I know," said Austin, "I still can't get used to being around you without a warning glare."

Kelly giggled.

'Cause perfect

Didn't feel so perfect

Trying to fit a square into a circle

Was no lie

I defy

"What's going to happen if I'm in his situation in broad daylight?" Kelly asked, "You won't be able to help me."

Let the rain fall down

And wake my dreams

Let it wash away

My sanity

'Cause I wanna feel the thunder

I wanna scream

Let the rain fall down

I'm coming clean

Austin stepped away from her. He put his hand into the sunlight and it started to burn. "I promised him I'd protect you until I'm dusted. No matter what happens, you're gonna make it…even if I don't."

Kelly half-smiled and pulled his hand back.

I'm shedding

Shedding every color

Trying to find a pigment of truth

Beneath my skin

Kelly took one look back into the sunlight and then glanced down to see that she had her cross necklace around her neck. She Vamped out and clasped it tightly, producing the same burning effects. "And the same will go to you, dead or not." She turned back.

'Cause different

Doesn't feel so different

And going out is better than always staying in

Feel the wind

Kelly and Austin gazed at each other until he finally clasped his hand in hers.

"We better go back in the building," said Kelly, "Mom's probably freaking out right now."

"I wouldn't be surprised," Austin said, "Considering how uptight she is lately."

"She's not uptight, she's just…easily upset because she's very…emotionally unwound. OK, she's uptight!"

"And you caught it."

Kelly gave him a look, crossing her arms.

"I know, I'll back off."

Let the rain fall down

And wake my dreams

Let it wash away

My sanity

'Cause I wanna feel the thunder

I wanna scream

Let the rain fall down

I'm coming clean

Before Austin could walk too far away, Kelly grabbed his arm and pulled him into a kiss.

Let the rain fall

The 2 parted.

Let the rain fall

"Still waiting for the warning glare," said Austin.

Kelly giggled.

I'm coming clean

The 2 walked over to the door that led back inside. Austin reached for the doorknob, but Kelly put her hand on it first and kissed him again.

"Seriously, that's getting kind of old," said Austin when they parted.

"Don't make me slap you," Kelly responded as she opened the door and led him back inside.

Let the rain fall down

And wake my dreams

Let it wash away

My sanity

'Cause I wanna feel the thunder

I wanna scream

Let the rain fall down

I'm coming clean

I'm coming clean

I'm coming clean

Kelly took one last look at the sky. She could clearly see the spot in the sky where her father had died. Finally, she went back inside and closed the door behind her.

Let's go back

Back to the beginning...
