Hi. This is my first fanfic so this is a little exciting to see what you think of my story.

Flames from above

The grate race was over. Eva and the rest of the Earth team had been back on Earth over 3 year and had lived their lives, as the months on Alwas and Oban never had happened. But they had. Eva reminded herself that every day. She lived in the Wei-residence with her father. They still had their issues but for now, they were all forgotten. Eva wok up from a so familiar dream. She had had this dream so many times before after they returned from Oban. 'She could see Jordan in the distant where she heard his voice. "I love you Molly", then he vanished in a mist of bright light and an unknown figure took his place. It was tall and dark, Consumed the light around it. She felt the cold reach her and all the warmth from Jordan's words was gone. She was alone, with no one to turn to. The creature came closer, she wanted to run, but her feet wouldn't reply. Then just second, before she would see its face, she would awake to her well-known room.

Eva went downstairs. Her father sat in the kitchen with a cup of coffee reading the newspaper. She read the front page. 'Nourasian ally comes to Earth'. Don was shaking his head.

"Those nourasians are not better than the Crogs". He looked at his daughter. "Sorry, I know that you have that nourasian friend of yours. Nevertheless, when they always turn to the strongest as some kind of lapdogs, I cannot trust them."

"But he…" Eva began but he interrupted her.

"So this is the big day. Rick is coming back, so are Koji and Stan. It's almost as the old team is back again". Every time Eva had tried to make her father understand that, the prince didn't have a choice, he would change the subject.

"Yah well the team will never be the same without Jordan", she said silent. Don didn't seem too have heard her.

School was as it always was, boring. Mr. Grigg stood once again lecturing about the way politics were structured. "As we can see our world is bigger than our ancestors ever could imagine. Byrus has already made a treaty with Earth and today it is Nourasia that will sign". Eva turned her attention from the little blue bird outside her window to her teacher. The whole week she had heard nothing else than about this event. In first, she was very eager to hear more in hope to hear anything about Prince Aikka. However, after a while, she discovered that it wouldn't happen. Though, she still kept her hope up. Mr. Grigg started again with his unstoppable rabble about how important this treaty was for the whole universe. Eva looked once again out at the window. The bird was long gone, but something got her attention. A shadow of a familiar shape appeared on the lawn in front of the school. She blinked thought that she had seen the shape of G'dar. She dismissed it from her mind trying to concentrate on the clouds at the sky, thought that she were daydreaming once again. Then as someone had shaking her, she looked at her classmates. They all stood at the windows looking down at the ground speaking in confusing.

The same morning Aikka was sitting in the VIP room. It was small in compared with his royal chambers and to be stuck here was not his plan. Although it was a direct request from his father that he should be the ambassador between Earth and Nourasia, he knew that he was there as a punishment for his lack of strength to win the great race of Oban. However, He didn't mind coming to Earth. He was in fact thrilled to visiting this strange planet in hope of meting his earth princess. The government was strict so he had not acquired the liberty to even see the world that he was there to make peace with. Only well planed trips around the planets surface was what he had seen. He had even found the location of Molly's residence and school but still he hadn't had the opportunity to visit her. A knocking on the heavy door sounded. "Prince Aikka you are requested within the hour". His old teacher was on Earth with him to guide him through the formalities. It was a boring but necessary task for the future alliance.

The cape laid beautiful in the wind. The fencing master stood impatient behind the young prince. The president of Earth was late. For some reason he didn't seam to find punctuality as important.

"This is an offence of your highness. We cannot see through fingers with this. How can we sign a treaty and anticipate this president to observe if he yet can not come on time?" Aikka didn't move.

"The Earth has placed as much time and resources as Nourasia have and my father has made me clear that this treaty is most important. He believe that the Croggs again will come and in greater numbers than last time. I can not allow them to near our beloved planet once more". He had used long time to negotiate with the humans and this day was an end that was most welcome.

The president finally came. He brush of an apology and quickly went on as nothing ever had happened. "Lack of respect". Once more, the prince didn't answer the old nourasian.

"Mr. President, I hope you are ready to sign the long waited treaty between our two worlds?" Aikka stood front to front with the short human.

"Indeed. We can learn much from each other and we hope that our friendship will continue for a long time."

While they stood there and talked, journalists were taking pictures and after the signing of the treaty, all burst out in one cry of questions. Aikka who wasn't used to this kind of reaction were surprised, but stayed calm.

Once more, he was back in his room. The nourasian ambassador would leave the next morning, still hadn't he even seen Molly. He decided to check how his noble companion had it. He did never leave G'dar if he could help it, there were a special bond between them.

The giant beetle stood safe in the stables. The horses witch were sharing the stable with G'dar were agitated by the stranger and his mount. Aikka had wondered how these fragile creatures could carrier the wait of a person. He lead G'dar out of the small building and out on the open lawn. The sky was clear blue. "What would you say to stretch your wings my friend?" G'dar replied happy with a cheer.

Prince Aikka sat on the shell of the beautiful beetle headed to the only thing that had been on his mind for so long. "Molly!" He whispered.

--

Eva saw something she never had imagined. Her dear friend seated on his beautiful but mysterious beetle, G'dar, at the middle of the schoolyard. Without anyone notice Eva sneaked out of the classroom and ran down the corridors, down the stairs and out to freedom. "Aikka!" She jelled when she came outside. The prince turned by his name. A smile came upon his face and to his surprise; Eva without warning flung herself around him in a hug. She notices as the first that he had grown several inches since she had seen him on Oban. He was dressed in a little different outfit, but very similar to the clothing that he had worn under the great race. He had even a similar cloak that he had used back then. His hair had been growing a great deal and was now in a loose ponytail down his back. Aikka blushed by the unaccustomed gesture. "Molly, it is good too see you again. I do not hope that I am interrupting." He said, looking at the crowd that had arrived from the many classrooms.

"Don't worry they just haven't seen an alien before, sorry the phrase." He nodded understanding.

"C'mon lets get out of here." Eva stood ready to get on G'dar.

"Eva Wei, get away from that thing'! Aikka looked concerned at the big man who rushed true the crowed of teachers and students.

"You're sure that this is a good idea Molly?" He asked just before they rose from the surface.

She had her arm around his waist sitting behind him in the saddle. "Sure that was only my headmaster, no reason for worry."

He looked down at the school, which was right below them. "Hmm if you say it. Well how have you been Molly?"

"Eva! My real name is Eva. It's a long story, but I sort of used a fake name to avoid my dad to know who I was." She explained.

"I remember. It was your commander of your team who was your father right?"

"The one and the same, but enough of my dad. What is the plan now or are you making it up along the way?" She grinned.

"I'm not sure why I came in the first place. I'm not used to disobey orders like I this." He looked troubled at her. "And it seemed like you were expected to be at that facility as well."

"Yah but don't take it so serious, I'll explain it to my father when we comes back." She looked down and saw the ground rising even further. "Where are we going?" She asked.

"You'll see." The prince smiled for himself, it was not many time he had the opportunity to surprise anyone anymore. The palace was not the best place for secrecy because somebody always knew something.

The mild wind blow in their hair and clothing as G'dar speeded across the country. "Look, this is what I wanted to show you." They landed not far from the place. Eva looked out over landscape. "It's the sea!" He couldn't stop smiling.

"Yes but it is so big. I have never seen something so amazing." It was not entirely true; because he had seen many wonders on Oban that he knew he never would see elsewhere. Eva Smiled by his enthusiasm; she also knew that they both had seen great things on Alwas and Oban.

"Yes it's beautiful; just wait to the sun's going down, that's beautiful."

"My apology, we only have lakes and streams on Nourasia. I expected something like this on Oban, but not here on Earth." He looked at the ocean again.

For several hours, they talked about everything that they could think about, Aikka told her his experience with the government of Earth and how they had got rid of the grogs on Nourasia. Furthermore, Eva told him the whole story about her and her father, how she ended up as Molly. They laughed and every thing was as old times, maybe better.

Eva and Aikka sat once again looking at the horizon. "We must soon get going. Canaan must be worried by now and so must your father." Aikka helped her on her feet where they flew toward the Wei- residence.

---

"Any luck?" Don asked as Rick just entered through the door. The manger sat in the kitchen with more wrinkles in his face than ever.

"Sorry Don, she wasn't in the park or the mall. Maybe Stan or Koji will find her."

"I can't imagine what could make her disappear like this. She looked forward to see you, all of you." Don looked down, the only thing he could do was looking in the coffee cup like if he could see all the answers to all his problems. The cup was full, with now cold coffee.

"Don't blame yourself. She has been late before. I'm sure that she'll come around soon."

----

"See, that's what I call a beautiful view." Eva said quiet in the young nourasians ear.

He looked at the horizon and smiled. "You're right, that is beautiful. It reminds me of the sunsets on Nourasia, I would love showing it to you I am sure that you would like it there."

"I have already promised to visit your planet, and I'm looking forward to it, however right now I don't think that my father would allow me to go anywhere."

They landed quietly in the yard of the Wei-residence. It was almost dark and the grass was wet by dew.

"I'll wait here until your safe inside." The young prince helped Eva down from the back of G'dar.

"It has been fun. I will miss you." Eva said trying not to show how unhappy she was to leave.

He smiled. "Indeed it has been very good to be with you again, though I also will miss you quite much. I would have spent more time with you if not I was required back on Nourasia. My father still thinks that I'm yet not suitable for a future king. But you are always welcome to visit me on Nourasia."

She smiled back. "I'll like that very much. You'll be safe till we'll meet again." She walked towards the house, knowing that Aikka watched her closely and that she wouldn't know when she would see him

-----

The same moment she opened the door and walked inside, she heard the loud sound of wings against the air. 'See you soon' she thought for herself.

"Anything guys?" She heard Rick's voice from the kitchen, probably to the one he thought came through the door. In that same moment, she felt guilt of leaving as she did, without telling anybody. With the knowledge of that her father would grounded her for at least a month for her actions she crossed through the hall.

"Hi dad, what's up?" She said, as nothing was wrong. "Eva?!" Don called as he jumped. He bumped his foot onto the table as he tried to rush to his daughter, which got him to dance up and down with a whispering of a curse.

"You're early home, why the rush?" Rick asked in sarcasm. The girl didn't say anything. She wouldn't let her father hear that she ran of with the prince of Nourasia, but it was too late for that announcement.

"Young girl, when you can fly off on a giant beetle, don't you think you could say where you were going or at least say when you'd be back?" Her father stood easy on his foot.

"Sorry dad I thought that you wouldn't approve so I…" She tried to explain herself. "Of course I wouldn't approve. You're my daughter and he is a playboy just like every other boy in his age." He interrupted.

"Yah I knew that you'd say that." She sighed.

The front door closed and two pair of feet's crossed the hall. "Sorry sir, she wasn't…" Stan said until he saw Eva.

"Hi guys."

"Eva? Well glad to see you. Where have you been hiding, we have been looking for you all over for you?

"You know somewhere under a rock." She joked in the hope of them to forget her punishment.

A loud bang sounded, the whole building trembling under them. "What now?" Don cried out loud protecting himself from falling pieces of the roof. "Everybody out!" Rick commanded guiding the team out through the hall and then outside. The sight they met shocked them. The whole sky was alighted with laser blast, missiles and flames from falling fighters. Eva gave a faint scream as she saw the disaster. The Wei-house busted in flames.

"We need to get out of here. Stan you take the wheels, sorry Rick but you know how you are under these circumstances. Everybody move we're leaving now!" While running toward the car Eva saw a familiar sight over the flames.

"Aikka!" She called, waving her arms in the air to get his attention. He landed close to the car.

"Eva, bless the spirits your okay." He whispered for himself.

"Eva what's up…? Aikka you're back." Don had turned to see why his daughter wasn't sitting beside Koji. The prince nodded in reply.

"You have a spacecraft nearby?" Don asked hastily.

"I have. You can follow me to the hanger."

"Take Eva with you." Eva looked at her father.

"What about you?" She asked still with tears rolled down her face.

"I'll be right behind. Now go." Her father pushed her toward Aikka who helped her up behind him.

"Hold on this will could be rough." She held herself tight to Aikka as they rose from the ground.
