Bit Cloud was rummaging through the refrigerator. He held a cookie between his teeth and was looking for something else to fill his stomach. Possibly make a sandwich he thought. Brad was on the couch possibly reading. Doc Toros was in his room making his zoid models. Jaime was... actually Bit didn't know where he was possibly developing a new plan for the next battle or in the garage. Leena was... well Leena was somewhere. His trail of thoughts soon came to a halt when he had found the super-tasty-yummy-in-my-tummy-pizza-bagel. It was bagel topped with pizza sauce covered with 7 different cheeses and toppings of green peppers, pepperoni, and more cheese. It was Leena's, possible a token from Harry since its an expensive thing to buy. Bit looked around his position, making sure no one was around especially Leena. Seeing no witnesses in sight, Bit began to perpetrate his crime. Holding the pizza bagel with both hands, he slowly moved it towards his mouth. His mouth became a gigantic black hole slowly drawing the bagel in. It came closer, and closer, and closer and almost there..... "BIT!" He leapt in the air with fright from a booming voice behind him. Still frightened Bit slowly turned to see the origin of the booming voice. His eyes came to meet with frightful vicious ones.
"H-hey Leena," Bit said with fear.
"Just what are you doing with my pizza-bagel!" Leena demanded in harsh tone.
"N-N-Nothing Leena. I'm just admiring it. It's not like I'm going to eat or anything." Bit said innocently. He slowly placed the back on the top shelf of the fridge and closed the door. Leena seem to calm down a bit but still looked ferocious.
"Well you better not touch my pizza-bagel again!"
"I'm sure I'll do that," Bit replied cautionusly. He mad slow and steady movements to get away. "Hold it!"
"I promise, I won't touch it again Leena." Bit said in reaction.
"Not that, here," She handed him a letter. "I came here to give you that and what do I find? You trying to steal my bagel after all the trouble.." Bit wasn't paying attention to what Leena was saying only focusing on the letter he just received. The return address contain only one name, Julia. 'Julia,' he thought. 'so you finally found me. Its been so long.' "BIT!" Leena screamed, "Are you even listening to me?"
"Yeah, I won't touch your bagel again," Bit replied, his attention still focused on the letter. "See ya." He walked off leaving Leena in a bit of dismay.
'I wonder what that was about?' Leena pondered, with nothing else to do she took out her pizza-bagel.
"Your leaving?" Doc Toros said with shock. "But why Bit?"
"There's something I have to deal with," Bit replied.
"How long will you be gone?" Toros asked.
"I don't know, possibly I won't comeback." Bit was already packed with a bag in hand.
"Is it that serious?" Toros was thinking of the next battle in two weeks.
"More than you know," He remarked. Bit walked passed Toros and stopped once he was near his Liger Zero. "Well Liger, this is good-bye," Bit stated, "Maybe I'll see you again." Liger let out a roar. Bit only smirked and walked off towards a jeep. Leena and Brad came up to Doc Toros. "Hey dad what's going on? Where's Bit going?" Leena asked. Toros replied, "Bit's leaving us."
"You mean Bit is leaving the team?" asked Brad.
"Afraid so," Toros told.
"But why?" Leena wondered.
"I don't know why, he won't say." said Toros. Leena ran up to the jeep where Bit was. "Hey Bit," Leena said. "What's the deal? Why are you leaving us?"
"There's someone I gotta see," Bit informed.
"Are you gonna comeback?" She asked.
"Maybe..., Maybe not," Bit replied, he started the engine. "See ya around Leena." He waved good-bye the drove off. Leena watched him disappear into the distance and couldn't help but wonder what was so important for him to leave.
Two figures sat alone on a bench in the midst of graves. Dark clouds filled the sky and rain fell to meet the ground. One figure was women with blond hair that went down to her shoulders. She had the sweetest blue eyes and was wearing a black trench coat. Next to her was a man with short blond hair and green eyes narrowed upon the rain. "So tell me Bit will you join these graves?" She asked, her hair was beginning to become drenched as well as the person next to her.
"I don't know, maybe or maybe not. Possibly I won't need a grave at all." answered Bit, "What do you think Julia?" She gave no answer not even a gesture of one. She looked forward viewing all the graves in sight. Silence passed between them for the moment. Julia broke the silence, "Bit you remember that time we went to see that movie?"
"Refresh me."
"Well one day you took me to see this western movie. In the movie a cowboy rides into town and squares off against the villain."
"Go on," Bit listened with open ears.
"Well this cowboy turns out to be a bounty hunter and has a dark past. It seems the cowboy knew the villain from the past. We also find out the cowboy had apparently died once and is search for a woman he once lost. Well the cowboy, near the end of the movie finds this woman he's been looking for but she soon dies." Julia paused a moment looking up into the clouds. "Well at the movie's end the cowboy and the villain face off in one last battle. An old fashion western draw. The hero kills the villain but as he walks toward the sunset he falls to the ground and dies." A grin somehow appeared upon Julia's face. Bit had notice this. "I love that movie. It was one of my favorites," Julia commented.
"I remember that movie now," Bit said with a grin, "I hate that movie, it made everything all mushy and sad." Silence past.
"Tell me Bit is it going to be life imitating art or art imitating life?" Julia then asked.
"I don't know, maybe it's both." He replied.
"I guess we have to see then huh?"
"Yeah, your right...."
"Oh what a battle," Leena explained falling on to the couch
"We almost didn't win," Jaime said.
"But we did," Leena reminded, "and that's all that matters."
"She's right," Brad favored. "A wins a win." Jamie had a look of disappointment on his face. "Look guys by the way this last month has been going we've been winning and losing matches, and our winning is by a just barely. We need to get better."
"Don't worry," Leena said joyously, "just you wait and see. Well pull up from this." Jamie was filled with disbelief. 'They're hopeless.' he thought.
Leena walk through the hall with a cookie in hand. she was headed towards her room when she made a sudden stop at a door. She pushed open the door and came to an empty room. 'Its been one month already,' Leena thought, the expression on her face was now soft as she scanned the room. 'I wonder where he is,' she exited and shut the door.
