Disclaimer: Ok first of all DO I LOOK LIKE I OWN EUREKA SEVEN? And for those who are dumb enough to think that no, no I don't.

Chaptor 1: The past

"How long has it been?" asked a familiar voice.

"About a year I guess" the other man responded

"A year… since those two saved the world."

After Renton flew away in the Nirvash to save Eureka, they had lost all contact with the young hero. Not long after he disappeared the world began to crumble, as the observer I saw a green light surround the world. As pieces of the Scab Coral raised and began breaking up, the old man that was once part of the Gekko State had told us the second summer of love was occurring. As his last words "There's no reason why evolution should stick to one path." The old man reveled to us that he was a coralian as well. Since then Holland took the position that Dewey has left to try and clean up the political mess that he had caused. Captain Jurgens with his adopted kids decided that they will help him fix this mess as well. The once proud Military began to break up into three different groups with different beliefs all together. Holland took over the main part, the second group still continued to follow Dewey's plans, and the third just tried its best to calm down the public. With most of the problems out of the way, RayOut began to publish again; it still continued to spread the truth about Dewey, the military's actions, the Coralians as well. Everyone on the Moonlight had to get used to the idea that Holland is no longer there to give orders due to the fact he has taken the role of the three sages. The Gekko State, no longer being the enemy of the world was free to ride the waves anywhere. As for Maurice, Maeter, and Linck on Renton's 16th birthday Holland arrived at Axel Thurston's home to drop them off. Of course at first Axel didn't want to see Holland, but after a little explaining and the official documents stating the three kids' adoption Axel accepted Holland. For 2 minutes at least, as for our young adolescent heroes? There were people saying they saw a young man with a girl that had green marvelous wings. However, none of these were fully confirmed, Dominic and Anemone heard of these stories and decided to meet them. Some people have lost hope that Renton and Eureka will ever be found, but everyone on the Gekko-Go knows that they will be back.

"We're back." said Stoner still lost in thought

"That wave wasn't as good as you said but I got some great shots of it." as he removed the film and placed it in his pocket.

"Well Mathieu, you should get the 606 ready. I'm goanna be shopping for supplies." Hilda said as she was walking away.

Mathieu sighed and said "When Renton and the kids here it seemed to be more fun. The waves seem to have lost their touch…"

Finding the way back

"Ow…" said the man lying on his desk.

"Well this is what you get for taking the position of the sages, Holland."

"My head hurts from all that reading, and it just keeps on coming" Holland said with a yawn.

With an annoyed look on her face Talho helped Holland reorganize the papers on the desk.

"Has there been any word? About those two I mean." said Talho with a worried sound.

"If those two can't make it through this, then there's no way they could've made it through the second summer of love" Holland answered with confidence.

"I just hope your right about that, but I guess those kids are strong and can make it." She said.

"A year has passed and still the papers keep on coming!" Holland's voice became more annoyed. "Say how's Charles doing?"

"He's fast asleep." As if her voice was whispering

"Lucky kid…"Holland replied with a little laughter

"Well, going by reports. There's a possibility that Renton and Eureka are in Gremchow" Holland added. "More recent sightings of them are occurring there, so we should contact Dominic and Anemone. I think they're near there right now."

"Always the mood swinger." Talho said with a sigh.

"GRANPA!!!!" a young voice yelled from a garage.

"We're home from school! Is there any food in the fridge?!" added a younger voice.

"Oh welcome back, how was school today." Axel asked.

"Grandpa, Maeter and Linck are raiding the fridge right now." An older, slightly more mature voice answered.

"Oh Maurice, glad you at least stop by to see me." Axel said with a smile.

"How was your day?" He added.

"I have a project I have to work on, but I just dropped by to see how you're doing on that car." Maurice was looking at the rusty old van as he said that.

"Well, some idiot cut the fuel line and stole the wheel axles. But other wise from that fixing this is easy." Axel replied

Maurice was following in Renton's steps and trying out mechanics and other stuff. Since the second summer of love, Bellforest has better Trappar waves so Reffing is more enjoyable. Maurice, Maeter and Linck began attending Renton's old school, where naturally Renton's old companions would bombard them with questions about one of the issues of RayOut. It was the one with Renton and Eureka on the longboard, everyone wanted to know who the girl was. Maurice would tell people the story but they would have trouble believing him. Maurice would wonder why Renton would call this city a bad place, it was peaceful, the people were nice, but a bit boring. But if Renton had never left this place and joined the Gekko-Go, he would not have ever met his mama and they would have never caused the second summer of love. The thoughts ran in Maurice's head, if Renton had stayed in Bellforest the world would be gone. As Maurice went to the house on the side of the large garage he dropped one of his books and the name Maurice Thurston was showing. The name Thurston, the surname given to him when Holland had the documents made for there adoption, a name that he has treated with respect because it was a name to boost about. Thurston- a great grandfather who's a legendary mechanic, a grandfather who's a military hero, and his own foster father, the hero who saved the whole world. Maurice now has a lot of pride in his "papa's" name.

"Anemone, I got word from Holland." Said a youth holding a radio.

"Did they find them?" asked a girl in a hopeful voice.

"No, not yet. But he told me there's sighting about them near Gremchow" answered the youth.

"That's not far from here!" said Anemone

"Really let me see the map?" Dominic said as he reached out for the map.

"You can't read maps remember?" said Anemone in a sarcastic voice.

Dominic sighed and thought "Renton has called me a genuine idiot because I can't read a map."

The couple got into the motorcycle and headed for Gremchow, eager to see the friends that helped them along time ago. As they arrived to the city, they could see this city was partly in ruins. The city was like that because of a certain thing that happened in its history. Even so, the people there seem to be happy. With half of the Scab Coral shell gone, some cities lost areas and some cities disappeared all together. But not all things are bad, because the earth underneath was untouched by man there was plenty of planets and animals. Some remained unevolved, others became new species, others just minor changes. The sea was full of life too, with man gone for 10,000 years the ecosystem returned normal. With Trappar still there, people used this to transfer resources to the cities up top, other people started cities on earth as well. Okay… back to Dominic and Anemone and to stop saying about what happened on the planet, uh? Okay that was confusing. Don't shoot me, please I'll go right back to Dominic and Anemone now. (DominicXAnemone lovers…) Dominic parked the motorcycle some where to ask if anyone has seen Renton or Eureka. To their amazement, all the people there saw them. They were helping people get better, or just helping people with charity. Dominic and Anemone realized one thing; most of the people here seem to have been helped or helped a young man and a girl with green wings.

"Anemone, if we're lucky we might find them here." Dominic said as he turned to ask more people.

"Such a large city, I wonder if we can even find them?" Anemone asked as she looked around herself realizing how bid the city was.

"Tresor isn't far from here right? There might be a chance they're headed there." Dominic said in a hopeful voice.

"Let's hope they are heading that way!" Anemone said.

"Here you go sir; I fixed up your arm. Try to stay off it for a while." Said a young man in a red jacket. "Is there anyone else with you, what happened?"

"Oh I was just driving carelessly, don't worry I was alone." said an older man.

"Eureka! There's no one else there, he was the only one there!" the youth shouted to the girl inspecting the truck.

"Renton can you fixed that child, it says it's in pain?" Eureka asked.

"Hm… let's see…" Renton carefully inspected the truck, for a few minutes he just stared. But he got up and said "Well, the bumper is badly dented, and one of the wheels popped, but it's nothing I can't fix!" He took out a tool kit and began working on the truck, in about 20 minutes the truck was up and running again. The man was grateful for this and gave Renton some money for helping him. Just as they were before Renton and Eureka held hands and continued walking down the road. As they were walking they were talking about how great it would be to see there kids again, to reunite their family. The couple happily walked until they heard a motorcycle behind them. When they looked back it was Dominic and Anemone, Renton and Eureka stopped and ran back to greet them.

"Renton! Eureka! Where have you been all this time?" Dominic asked in great excitement.

"We've been to many places, but we were kinda lost in the forest for the first 3 months." Replied Renton.

"Why didn't you ask for help to get back?" asked Dominic as he was getting ready to shoot Renton with another question.

"We were planning to but we wanted to help people and we lost track of what we were trying to do to begin with." Renton said shyly.

While Dominic blasted away at Renton with questions, Anemone grabbed Eureka and prepared to ask questions of her own.

"So, Eureka how are things going between you and Renton?" asked Anemone with smile.

"Fine, why do you ask?" ask Eureka in a curious tone.

"I mean did you two kiss yet!" Anemone moved closer to Eureka.

Eureka's face turned red at the question. "We-we did." Eureka said nervously.

"Well, Renton, Eureka, everyone is missing you right now and-" a small ringing in Dominic's pants stop him. "Can you wait a bit, Hello? This is Dominic speaking" as he talked away into the communicator.

"Wow! Renton you really seem to have grown up!" Anemone said in surprise.

"Really?" asked Renton felling a bit confused.

"You look bigger from the last time I saw you." Anemone said.

Dominic walked up to Renton. "We can wait here for a bit, Captain Jurgens is going to pick us up."

As the group sat down to talk, Renton looked over to Dominic and asked "So how are things going with Holland and Talho?"

"Holland's up to his neck in paper work." Answered Dominic.

"Huh? Why? Isn't he on the Gekko-Go?" asked Renton.

"He took over Dewey's place; he's trying to clean up the mess Dewey left. I think he's regretting it now." said Dominic containing his laughter.

"And how are the kids doing? Are they on the Gekko-Go?" asked Eureka.

"There with Axel, they're attending Renton's old school." Anemone replied.

"WHAT!?" Renton shouted in a surprised gasp.

"Well at least gramps is taking care of them." Renton said in a calmer manner.

"So how are you two doing?" Eureka asked.

"We were looking for you two, but I guess it wasn't all too hard to do, I mean Eureka has wings and not many people have green wings coming out of there backs you know?" Dominic said in an annoyed voice.

As they continued to talk a small flyer came to pick them up, the pilot was shocked to see Renton and Eureka but Dominic told him not to say anything until they get back to the Super Izumo. As the small flyer reached the large ship, Dominic had told Jurgens that he had a surprise in store for him.

"Captain, look who I found." Dominic said as he moved to show Eureka and Renton. Captain Jurgens stood there speechless for a minute. "Get the Gekko-Go on the line and get Holland too." The Captain ordered.

"Wait till Holland hears about you two showing up, and I know you're goanna be asked this a lot more but, where have you two been?" asked the captain as he looked at them both.

"Uh… you can say we've been to many places and seen many people but the whole story needs a lot of time." Renton said slowly.

"Captain, we have the Gekko-Go on the line" said Maria

"What about Holland?" asked Jurgens.

"Uh, he's asleep on the intercom" replied Maria

"That bastard…" Jurgens was ready to give Holland a mean wake up call but Renton stopped him.

"We can get the Gekko State first, and call Holland in the morning." Renton said.

"We wouldn't want to disturb his sleep would we?" Renton said in an almost sarcastic manner. Eureka almost laughed at that joke.

Jurgens went to talk to Ken-Goh, who was now the owner of the ship. He told them he had something important to talk about and needed to be seen in person. Since the time was almost midnight, Captain Jurgens found a spare room for Eureka and Renton and make a joke about not trusting them in the same room. Renton and Eureka blushed, but after a long day helping people a little sleep sounded good. As the two lovers fell asleep, the ship set a course for the capital. When Renton and Eureka found themselves awake in the morning, they saw the Gekko-Go wasn't far away. As the two ships docked and the hanger opened, the crew of the Gekko-Go was shocked to see Renton and Eureka.

"Renton! Eureka! Man has it been boring here without you!" said Mathieu. Then with in a few seconds they were blinded by a flash of light.

"Gah… I can't see" said Renton trying to recover from the camera shot.

"Got'cha, this is goanna make the world flip" Stoner said.

"Stoner, if you wanted a picture, you could've asked" said Renton looking annoyed.

"Ha-ha, I just wanted the perfect shot and a more natural one at that." Stoner replied.

"Give us some warning next time!" Eureka said from behind Renton.

As the crew of the Gekko-Go gathered at the cafeteria, they began talking about what had happen during their time away. They explained that after the Nirvash broke them out of the Command Cluster; it had given them a safe landing back to the planet. For the first three months after they arrived back on the planet, there were lost in the forest. However, they eventually decided to leave the area and try to find a city. After seeing what Dewey had done, Renton and Eureka wanted to help the people. They were so busy helping people that they forgot they were trying to get back home, but when they saw a sign that said Tresor wasn't far they tried to get there but they bumped into Dominic and Anemone instead. Everyone on the Gekko-Go after hearing there story began questioning Eureka's wings, and after much explaining the Gekko-Go crew finally understands.

"So… Renton" Mathieu putting his hand on Renton's shoulder.

"How was your time alone with Eureka?" Mathieu said in a sly voice. In this instant, Renton knew what he was asking.

"No Mathieu, we didn't now stop asking that question" Renton said calmly.

"You've really seem grown up" Hilda said.

"Unlike a certain person I know" she added.

"So when are we getting to the capital?" Renton asked.

"That will take a while" said Ken-Goh.

"ZERO-G!" Mathieu, Doggie, and Hap said in unison.

"Say, where's Mischa?" Eureka asked.

"She went back to the Military, don't worry it's the part of the Military under Holland's command." Hap said.

"Oh…" Eureka seemed disappointed.

"Wait, under Holland's command?" Renton asked.

"Well yeah, the Military split up into three parts, sad to say but there are still people that support Dewey." Hap said with a down look on his face.

"We should get ready for the ballistic flight." Eureka told Renton.

The headed for the hanger but when they got there, the empty spot left by the Nirvash made them realize it wasn't there anymore. Eureka and Renton saw that the 606 was empty and decided to use that during the ballistic flight. As the ship finally left the atmosphere Eureka and Renton went to their spot to see the world. The Great Wall was gone and you can clearly see parts of the earth through the Scab Coral shell. Soon enough the Gekko-Go reached the capital, and when they had arrived unlike the time before they were greeted. They went to where Holland was working, as first glance the place looked wonderful. However, as soon as they entered Holland's workroom they thought other wise. The whole place was stuffed with papers; a messy haired, half sleeping Holland didn't even see them. As Mathieu prepared to startle Holland Talho entered the room.

"Oh, Hi Mathieu" said a cheery Talho. This caused Holland to look up toward Mathieu and just like that his head dropped to the desk. The room itself was brightly light, and gray pillars with windows in between was on one side of the room, there was a single desk and lots of papers lying everywhere.

"Eureka? Renton? Is that you?" asked a confused Talho.

"Hi Talho, how come Holland's half dead?" asked Renton

"Hi Talho, how's your baby?" asked a excited Eureka

"Uh… well Holland isn't getting enough sleep and our baby is in the room next door. You want to see him?" Talho asked looking less confused.

As Mathieu began poking Holland, Renton and Eureka followed Talho to the room where her and Holland's child was. Renton and Eureka looked down at the gray haired child bundled in a blue blanket. The room was decorated with many types of wallpaper and many stuff toys were placed near him.

"Talho? What's his name?" asked Renton still looking at the baby.

"Charles, has a nice ring to it?" Talho said with a soft voice. Renton looked up at her, remembering the man he once almost called papa.

"Talho, you're amazing. You were keeping this child within you. It's so amazing" Eureka said becoming more and more amazed as she did.

"Well I remember Mischa once told you that you could do this too, Your amazing yourself Eureka. Those wings are beautiful" Talho said with a smile.

"Still its amazing" Eureka replied.

"Yo! Renton! Eureka! Talho! Holland's waking up now!" yelled a laughing Hilda. The three left the baby alone too see a half baked Holland say "Jeez your back and you don't even tell me…"

"Well we wanted to surprise you but you seem occupied with others things right now" Renton said almost laughing.

"Paper hasn't decreased since a year ago, I'm in so much pain" Holland said weakly. Everyone laughed at Holland for being wasted like that, to add to the pain Stoner took a lot of pictures of Holland knowing he couldn't do anything about it.

"That bastard…" Holland said with his face pressed on the desk.

"Heh, this picture will make a great cover, it seems after Renton and Eureka have returned a lot of master pieces seem to be popping up" Stoner said happily.

"Well we're off then, we're going to Bellforest to see the kids" Renton waved goodbye to Holland.

"Wait, take me with you!" Holland said as his last saviors run away. "The pain…"

After a bit of refueling the Gekko-Go was off to Bellforest, with the sudden rush to go places the Gekko-Go got to use its Ballistic flight again. Within hours they reached Bellforest where they would go on there own now.

"Eureka, we finally get to see the kids again. I'm as happy as you are" said Renton looking at Eureka.

"Maurice, Maeter, and Linck, I wonder how they're doing right now?" asked Eureka.

"We'll have to find out on our own then" Renton said to Eureka in a smile.

"Together"

"Together"

The Boy that has become a man, and the girl who has become a women return to their home, but what awaits them? Next time: Living in Bellforest.
