A few months had passed since Bloom and Fives wedding. They were back from their honey moon and everyone was settling back to their usual routine.
Song didn't know why but she was feeling a little low. Something just felt off. Echo came in and said "Song something wrong?" "I don't know I just feel a little off."
Echo looked worried and said "Maybe I should stay home." She shook her head and said "No Bloom's coming over so I'll be fine. Get to work before Fives starts to worry."
Echo frowned slightly but sighed as he nodded while kissing her lightly and then grabbed Brave as they headed out. Speaking of Brave a few months ago he and Moon had had a litter of three puppies.
One went to Rex's boys who he thought would teach them responsibility, the second went to live with Fives and Bloom and the third ended up with Cody, his girlfriend could get him to do anything now a days.
Echo and Bloom decided a second dog wasn't the best idea at the moment so were fine not keeping one of them.
Once gone, Song went to read a book to wait for Bloom to come over. As she waited though she fell asleep.
In her dreams she found herself walking through a mountain, ice and snow all around her. "Hello anyone." As she looked about she suddenly saw a familiar trollin that said "Fear will be your enemy."
"Toda what are you doing here what's going on?" As she went over towards him the figure was replaced with Echo who was vibrating so fast it looked as if he was about to disappear. All she could hear from him though was "Song, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
"Echo!" She called as he went towards him but her hands went right through him and as she pull her hands back she could see them starting to freeze over.
"Ah!" she woke up on the couch and was shocked to find it was frozen "What, how did this…?" Suddenly the door opened and Bloom came in, about to say hello when she saw the ice and looked worriedly at Song.

A few months had passed since their wedding. The two had enjoyed their time alone on the beaches of Naboo but were glad to be home.
Fives, snuggled next to Bloom, is woken up by a gray pup with black paws. He wanted his breakfast so he jumped on the bed gently pawing his male master.
Fives tries waving him off. The gray eyed pup then licks him to wake him up.
"Alright. Alright Trooper I'm up." Fives yawns scratching the back of his head.
Slowly getting out of bed he heads for the kitchen. He pets the pup on his leg as he pours the kibble. Hearing it Moon stretches on the couch then walks over to her bowl.
'I guess I should start ours.' Fives looks in the fridge.
Fives isn't the best in the kitchen but he can at least make eggs and toast. Admiring his finished work he puts it on a tray to bring in to Bloom. Opening the door she's still sound asleep.
"Hey, Bloom. Time to get up." Fives Whispers gently shaking her.
"Five more minutes." Bloom snuggles the sheets.
"Don't you have designs to go over with Song today?" Fives chuckles as he places the tray on her night stand.
"And what if I want to stay in bed with my husband?" Bloom looks up at him with seductive eyes.
Fives leans down kissing her. "As much as I'd like to play hooky, the chief is doing a review this week of all sections. So we have to be on time." He hands her coffee.
"Alright." Bloom pouts sipping her coffee as he changes into his uniform.
Fives struggles with the tie. He always does. But it just means Bloom gets to fix it for him. Laughing she straightens the tie then steals a kiss.
"I'll see you later." Fives taps his forehead to hers before putting Moon on her leash.
Waving goodbye Bloom goes to eat her breakfast. Only to find Trooper had gotten to it first.
'I can't wait for obedience school to start.' Bloom sighs as she looks at the repentive pup.
Bloom changes then places him on his leash heading for the other Domino house hold. At the door Trooper jumps happy to see Song.
"Okay. Okay wait a moment." Bloom laughs patting his head. "Hey Song I was th-. W-what in the…?" She looks around at all the ice and the scared Song.
Bloom flies over to calm her down. She reminds her of their breathing exercises and eventually she relaxes causing the ice to vanish.
"Here." Bloom hands her a cup of hot tea. "What happened?" She sits next to her curious.
With the guys…..
"Ah look who's on time." Fives laughs handing him morning coffee.
The two dogs nuzzle each other. Happy to see the other in the morning before work.

As Song begins to cry letting everything out her friend hugging her a she tried to explain what had happened. How she had been feeling week in the morning and then how about her dream.
"I don't know why I had such a dream, maybe my instincts are trying to tell me something or I'm just jumpy cause it's getting close to that time we all met. I'm just suddenly afraid something will happen."
Suddenly she remembered something and said "Oh no, Bloom on your wedding the time we had to go through the jabberwakies world….." She explains how she had to unleash her fullest potential by creating a storm. Her feeling had been so high wired that she covered the top of the whole mountain.
At the galaxy guard.
Echo rolled his eyes at his brothers jab, he was always on time to work even though he lived outside the city. The only reason he came in a little late was because he had stopped to make a call to Kix about what might be making Song feel tired. Kix had told him he was overreacting and to call him for a real emergency.
Echo sighed as he said "I'm just a bit worried about Song. She said she was feeling tired. Or off as she said. I may be overreacting but..." Suddenly something felt off. His crystal was shaking even Fives could see it. He then felt it, the off feeling and that something was wrong With Song that...He rushed out of the guard Fives after him along with the dogs.
He didn't even take the speeder he started feeling the rush in body to use his speed but then as he did "AH!" he yelled as he suddenly fell down and he himself was shaking.
CL
"Hey we'll figure this out." Bloom pats her back. "I'm sure it… it's…" She feels off as her hands begin to heat up.
Staring at them she sees their glowing. Why? She wasn't doing anything. Not wanting anyone to get hurt she rushes outside for the blast to come. When it finishes she nearly collapses to the ground.
"Bloom!" Fives rushes over to her.
"I… I'm okay… I think." Bloom huffs as she stands back up.
"Looks like we're not the only ones having an odd day." Fives helps to walk her inside.
After explaining what happened to Echo and what it took to stop the shaking Song came clean about what happened after he left. Not sure what this is they call Kix and Elyon to have a medical and force look at this.
"So I guess you weren't just being overprotective." Kix looks over the nearly drained Bloom.
"Do you have any ideas Elyon?" Fives looks over worried.
"Truthfully this is uncharted waters. Crystal and mind fusing were just theories until you four." Elyon looks at all of them a bit worried.
"Best guess is that the anniversary of when you met is coming up and you're feeling antsy. Understandable given what happened at the wedding." She tries to assure them.
"That could be a part of it given these tress results." Kix looks over their blood pressure. "I can tell your boss the two of you are taking some time off. I'm sure he'll understand." He heads out to make the call.
"Have you felt any affects?" Elyon turns to Fives.
"None." Fives shakes his head. "My hearts pounding but seeing Echo and then Bloom…" He glances over at his wife.

Song then said "Ely do you think this has anything to do with that happened at the wedding a few months ago." Ely looked over and asked "What happened?"
Song explained what she had to do to get through the jaberwoky and Ely looked surprised as she said "You used your full potential when you've only ever used it once before. Song that was dangerous." "It was the only way to save Bloom and Fives in time."
Echo then said as he realized something "Song they day that happened, when I saw the explosion of ice I. I thought I lost you and...Ely could stress from when we had to use our powers be a cause of this." Ely thought of it but replied "It could be but then I don't know what caused it in you two but not in the others."
Song suddenly said "Toda told me that fear would be my enemy when we faced Snow and Jack maybe that's what's happening. After the scares at the wedding it would make since that we all are having some sort of issue because of what happened."
Kix then said "Whatever this is you all need to be careful. Stay on the down low about your powers there are many people who might come after you at this weekend state. the kaminoans that got away including."
They all looked worried at that and Song said "Maybe Fives and Bloom could stay here with us till we solve it. We have plenty of privacy and since we can't work while like this maybe can find a way to solve it."
CL
"That sounds like a good idea." Elyon nods.
"I'd like to take some blood just too be safe." Kix goes through his bag.
Trooper hides in between his parents as he sees the needle. Brave and Moon nuzzle him.
"Is something wrong?" Fives seems concerned.
"No, it's just Bloom's tests were odd. I want to make sure everyone's okay." Kix assures him.
"My tests? Why mine?" Bloom becomes nervous.
"It could just be that your… episode was resent. That's why I want to be sure." Kix draws a small vail.
After taking some from the others as well he tells them to try to take it easy then leaves. Elyon stays to hear what Bloom and Fives want from the apartment then heads off for them.
"What now?" Bloom looks around the room.
"Now? Now you lay down." Fives motions to the guest bed room.
Bloom's about to argue when Fives picks her up princess style not giving her a choice. After hearing what Kix said he was worried and wasn't going to take any chances.
Fives lies her down gently. Bloom wanted to tell him he was going overboard but he was scared. Seeing her like that again and Kix's words, she wasn't going to get past what he was feeling right now. So she lies down requesting he lay with her until she falls asleep. He agrees to that, holding her close as she snuggles into his chest.
After the nap Bloom did feel a bit better and Fives was calmer. They decided to make lunch and try to think what could have triggered this. Which clearly there is since it still hasn't happened to Rex or repeated in the others.
"Maybe it was something to do with what we were talking about. Or how we were feeling at the moment." Bloom sneaks a biscuit down to Trooper.

Song sighed as she said "Maybe it had to do with my dream. I was remembering our time in Snow's world and then when I went after Echo my hands went through him he was vibrating for some reason but I've never seen him do that. Then my own hands where freezing over."
Echo grabbed on to her remembering his own experience being frozen over "I did vibrate when my powers got out of control but how would you know."
"Maybe it was our bond warning me. I don't know. I should be celebrating the time we found each other but instead we're all in concern. Our wedding anniversary has always been bittersweet."
Echo frowned nodding, even if they tried to do something special they still felt off around this time and every night for that whole week they would hold on to each other afraid the other would disappear.
Echo then said "Maybe we could do something just the four of us this time for our anniversary, how about a quiet dinner, just the four of us?" Song sighed saying "That be nice. But for now we have things to talk about. Like why haven't Five's abilities wacked out yet and what are we going to do when they do get worse. We have to keep this low key."
CL
"Hey remember what Kix said, we should try relaxing before thinking things are getting worse." Bloom smiles over at them. "Come on, why don't the two of us go out with the dogs and the guys can do the dishes. I don't think Trooper can wait to play anymore." She pulls Song out of her chair as she looks down at the hyper pup.
"Wait why are we on dish duty?" Fives calls, too late they're out the door.
'Got away.' Fives sighs.
"I wonder when the tests will be done." Fives mutters as he looks at his watch.
Meanwhile with the girls.
Bloom gets Song in the spirit of just enjoying herself. They take turns throwing a ball that one of the dogs will bring back. Brave likes to show off catching it before it touches the ground. Trooper tries to copy him but just gets bunked on the nose then has to chase after it.
'I hope Echo can calm Fives down completely.' Bloom glances back at the house hoping they talk.
MS7
Echo looked over at Fives as they scrubbed the dishes and said "I know you're worried. I am too. But you know how strong they are. And Bloom, you know that what ever her moth had skipped her. For all we know it's just what Kix said, her abilities were just more recent."
With the girls
Song looked about and said "Thanks for trying to cheer me up. I just always go into mission mode when things start going crazy, especially with our powers and around this time. Maybe we can all watch a movie tonight. Maybe that will calm the nerves, I just wish that I could enjoy my anniversary for once and not feel for a whole wee like I'm going to wake up without Echo there. I feel ridicules feeling this after all these years but it's just sigh...After the first time and then almost seeing you guy go through the same thing."
Song feels the ball freezes in her hand but then unfreezes it as she takes a breath. She needed to calm down.
CL
"That's it deep breaths." Bloom kneels down smiling. "And I think a movie is perfect. I kinda want that 'caramel popcorn' you talked about. It sounds good." Her wings flutter a bit at the thought.
Song smiles as she relaxes again. Trooper tilts his head with the ball as if to say 'are we still playing?' The girls laugh and toss it again.
With the guys.
"I know. I know I'm being jumpy. But…" Fives dries the dishes as he looks out the widow to the girls.
'I really can't lose her.' Fives touches his crystal, a habit he picked up for when he's feeling uneasy.
Echo pats his shoulder. He knows how he felt.
Later on they pick a movie and snuggle up on the couch. Bloom tries to keep the bowl of the sweet and salty popcorn to herself and Fives tries to steal it back. Meanwhile Trooper begs for a snack. Brave gives a small bark reminding him to behave. Trooper then goes back, Moon snuggling as the movie continues.
Half way through the flick Bloom falls asleep on Fives shoulder. She felt tired and wasn't sure why but at least she had him. Fives smiles as he covers her with a blanket.
The next morning Elyon comes by. Coming in she drops the bag of a change of clothes for them and had some other bag in her hands.
"Thanks for getting those for us." Bloom smiles at her old master and friend. "What's that?" She points to the bag.
"This? This is for you. Some medicines that help. Oh these are for the dizziness and this…"
"Medicine? Why does she need medicine?" Fives stares with shaking eyes as him and Echo come in from a hike.
"Oh! I must have beat Kix." Elyon realizes she's causing a panic as the hollo phone rings.
"Elyon you're there al-" Kix starts.
"Why does Bloom need medince?!" Fives yells with shaking eyes.
"Fives, let him talk before getting upset." Bloom pushes him back a bit.
"No, no panic would be normal before knowing the reason." Kix looks over at Elyon.
"How was I to know I'd beat you?" Elyon pouts.
"S-so what is it?" Bloom's wings droop.
"Your test results were off. That shut was to drain you, so it would be safe. Or at least that's the guess by our readings." Kix explains.
"Safe?" Both look confused.
"Bloom… you're pregnant." Elyon takes her ex-student's hands smiling at her.
"I… I'm…" Bloom's eyes widen then she looks over at Fives.
"YES!" Fives sweeps her up spinning her around.
MS7
Songs squeal as she said "Congratulations!" Echo's jaw drops but then laughs as he come up to give his brother a one arm hug and congratulate him "I thought this might happen."
Song and Bloom hug as they start gushing about how the baby might look, what gender it will be. How they'll need to shop for all the basic baby stuff.
Ely laughed as she said "I see you're all excited." Kix shook his head from the phone and said "Well I just wanted to give that news. Congratulations. Keep yourself healthy and watch your stress. I sent Elyon with those medicines for this situation and other things."
Song then said "Kix what about the rest of the results." Kix sighed saying "Nothing so far. But if I find anything I'll call back." With that he hung up and then Song said "Well we might as well celebrate. What are you two hungry for we could always have some take out or Echo can cook us something."
They all agreed on that but as Echo was heading to the kitchen he suddenly had to grab the wall as a bit of shaking occurred. Song rushed up to him and he suddenly stopped as she asked "Echo you okay." He sighed saying "Yeah I'm fine but maybe take out would be better." They nodded at that.
Suddenly Ely said "I think I know why Fives hasn't had his powers activated yet." They all turned to Ely as she explained "Bloom the only reason you lost control was to release extra energy to protect the baby, but have you two tried using them at all."
