Bits 'N Pieces Chapter One
A young man with bright emerald eyes and sun-blond hair sneaked into the kitchen of Blitz Team HQ, hoping to steal one of Leena's snacks before she got up.
He crept towards the cupboard, careful not to make any sound. As soon as he grabbed a doughnut, he jumped and almost lost his prize as a voice shouted, "Aha! I knew you'd try for my food again, Bit Cloud!"
Bit didn't even turn to look at her; he knew he'd been caught. He turned and ran out the other way, flinging open the door and running out into the early morning sunrise.
Dr. Toros laughed as he watched Leena chase Bit around the HQ grounds. Even though they were S-Class Zoid Warriors, nothing had seriously changed in them, personality wise.
Jamie and Brad walked over and stood next to Dr. Toros. Jamie, the young man with ebony hair and eyes, gave an exasperated look to the sky and Brad crossed his arms over his chest and sighed.
"They're at it again…" Brad murmured.
"Well, at least this way I'll get a chance to make breakfast without you guys pounding on the table like a bunch of four-year-olds. Honestly, Bit and Leena are both, what, nineteen? You'd think they'd have grown tired of this by now," Jamie said, before heading back inside.
As Jamie was collecting various items from the refrigerator—eggs, milk, butter, and orange juice—the phone rang. He set down the ingredients and headed to the VidPhone in the hall.
He switched on the VidScreen and put the receiver to his ear. The screen showed a middle-aged-looking man with brown hair and stormy blue eyes on the other line. "Hello? This is Blitz Team Base, Jamie speaking."
"Is Bit Cloud there?" the man asked.
"Er…Yeah, hold on a minute," Jamie said as he set the phone down and headed outside where Bit was still being pursued by Leena.
"Bit! Phone for you!" Jamie yelled. Bit turned towards him and ran, dropping the doughnut in his hands before dodging past him.
Bit strode to the hall VidPhone, instantly recognizing the man on the screen. After quick greetings, the man on the phone told Bit why he called.
"I have some bad news. May's been hurt, and she's in the hospital in Wakita City. I'll tell you everything once you get here. Can you make it?" the man asked.
Bit nodded solemnly. "I'll be there as soon as I can, Mr. Yuy."
The young man walked back outside, his keys in his hand, all thoughts of fun and games forgotten. There was bad news about May. He hadn't heard from her in a while, but he still cared for her. Still loved her and worried about her.
When Leena saw Bit come walking out, her initial purpose was to yell at him for taking her doughnut, but she stopped when she saw his ashen face. "What's wrong, Bit?" she asked, concern written all over her soft features.
Bit ignored her. "Doc? I need some time off. I don't know how long I'll be gone." Leena was shocked. Bit's voice was so devoid of emotion. What had happened to cause such a change in him?
"What is it? What happened?" Dr. Toros asked, but he knew it was futile.
"Family business. I don't need a paid absence, I'm pretty sure I'll miss a battle." //Or two…// Bit added mentally.
Dr. Toros frowned, but he nodded solemnly and said, "Be sure to let me know if you find out how long you'll be gone."
Bit gave a slight nod, then headed out to the hangar where the Zoids were kept. He climbed up into the cockpit, inserted the key, and started up the system. Liger roared as they bounded out of the hangar at high speeds towards Wakita City, Bit praying for the safety of Maylinne. Liger could sense Bit's anxiousness, so it didn't hold anything back as they headed to the city.
