Fiona's Ambition Ch. 4: Preparations for the Final Battle
Author's Note: This question is going to the reviewer Holly: What did you mean by it was weird for Fiona to say she loves Van? Do you think they're a bad couple? I mean there's plenty of evidence she does. Like every time he battles, she cries his name. And another time Van told Zeke to go ahead cuz he wanted to be alone with Fiona. Or was it just the way I wrote it? Please leave another review. I'm curious. Anyway, here's chapter 4. I need between 15-20 reviews to write the next chapter because I need to know if you like how it's going or how to make it better.
The aircraft carrier was nearing the base. Herman's voice boomed on the intercom: "All personnel prepare for landing, I repeat, all personnel prepare for landing. We'll arrive at the base in 25 minutes. All zoids dock now." Fiona, on the other hand, didn't move her zoid. Inside her head, a whole different battle was going on. The Death Stinger had broken out of the pyramid shield and dodged the gravity cannon's shell. Hiltz laughed as he charged up the particle cannon. "I'll see you in hell Flyheight, now die!" Van desperately put the shield up, but he didn't have enough power left to defend himself. Thomas and Irvine stood still in fear. The particle cannon tore through the Blade Liger, completely destroying it, and killing Van and Zeke. Fiona's premonition was ended by Van opening a comm. link. "Fiona, what's the matter? We were told to dock 5 minutes ago, and you haven't moved. Are you ok?" "Yeah, I'm just feeling a little light-headed, that's all." Van and Fiona then docked their zoids. Van quickly jumped out, while Fiona slowly climbed out. When she finally got to the ground, she fainted. Van picked her up in his arms and took her to a bunk and waited for her to wake up. "What happened? Van?" "Fiona, after getting out of your Helcat, you fainted. Do you feel ill?" "No." "Then what happened? Did you have a premonition?" "Yes," Fiona croaked. "Please then, tell me about it. I'll listen." "Well, you, Irvine, and Thomas were fighting the Death Stinger. You failed in destroying it, and then Hiltz. killed you with the particle cannon. Then, I came out of it." "It's alright Fiona, I'm here for you." Van said as he hugged her. They held the embrace until Thomas came in. "Van, Fiona, we've arrived at the base." Thomas immediately did a double take, had a queer expression on his face, and started to leave. "Look Thomas." Fiona started. "I see what's going on. I know when I'm not wanted." Thomas then left. "I'll talk to him later, Fiona. But now, we've got to get in the base and learn about the gravity cannon, ok?" "Ok, Van." Van and Fiona got in their zoids and headed to the base. Thomas was nowhere to be found. They didn't want to be late for the briefing, so they headed in. Inside, they saw Irvine and Moonbay and quietly chatted with them. Thomas was sitting alone in a corner. "What's Thomas so bummed about?" Moonbay inquired. "I dunno if Irvine told you this yet, but me and Fiona got together after she got a zoid, but that's another story. Anyway, we were hugging when he came in, and." "Oh I get it."Moonbay interrupted. "Poor guy'll never get over it," Irvine sniggered. "Seriously, Irvine. He's really depressed. Van said he'd talk to him later." Fiona responded. The group decided to start listening about the gravity cannon now. ". Anyway, it creates an artificial black hole with 10x gravity, and crushes anything within its radius. But we have only 3 shells though, and one is needed for testing, so you'll only have two to use in battle." Dr.D explained. "You heard the old man. We'll do a test now, and our pilots Van, Irvine, and Lt. Shubaltz can have a recess." Colonel Shubaltz ordered. Van took this opportunity to talk to Thomas. "Look Thomas, I won't lie to you, what you saw in the bunk was real. Fiona and I are boyfriend and girlfriend. But that doesn't mean we can't be friends right?" Van got no response. "Fine you don't want to be our friend, we're not going to make you! We only have to work together this one last time." Van snapped and left for his room. "Alright Thomas, lemme put it this way," Fiona started, "Van's saying just because we're going out doesn't mean we hate you. You're still a good friend of ours and this doesn't replace that." "Really?" "Of course! Although, I don't love you same way as I do Van, I love you as a brother and friend." "Anyway, I got to see Van and tell him you are still on speaking terms with him." "Alright." "Irvine, Moonbay please don't make any cracks right now, okay? I just got him out of depression." Fiona whispered as she went up the stairs. "You know, he only listened to it coming from you." "Irvine, that's what she meant!" Moonbay exclaimed. Fiona knocked on Van's door. "Who is it?" Van was being understandably irritable. "It's me" "Oh, come in." Van softened his tone. "I talked to Thomas, and he understood and still is our friend. " Fiona said as she stepped over Zeke. "That's good." "Fiona, do you know there's a knot in your hair?" "There is? Can you get it out for me?" Van pulled out her scrunchie and got it out. He then got a brush and started brushing her golden hair. It calmed him in a way from the Death Stinger and everything else. After about 10 minutes, Shubaltz's voice was on the intercom. "Will GF members Van, Lt. Shubaltz and Irvine report to the briefing room?" Van and Thomas mumbled an ok into the intercom while Irvine screamed into it, "I'm not part of the GF goddamn it!" Van and Fiona walked down into the briefing room hand in hand. Herman started speaking. "The Death Stinger has been spotted at apparently random locations and destroying them." He then read them off a list. "No, these were in sequence where I traveled with my friends 4 years ago." "Then where will he appear next?" "The Gurreal Plateau." "We're planning an attack with you three and the Ultrasaurus. I've invented a way when you guys combine your shield's power, it makes a pyramid- shaped cage. We will then launch the gravity cannon at the Death Stinger and destroy it. You will mobilize now." Dr. D summarized. Van, Irvine, and Thomas ran to the hangar with Fiona trailing Van. "Van, remember my premonition?" Van was already in Liger with Zeke and couldn't hear her. He was off. Fiona got inside her stealth Helcat and trailed behind. She would intervene, if necessary, to help Van.
How'd you like it? It was a lot longer. I tried to keep Thomas bashing to a minimum, so don't flame me on that. Irvine cracks on him in the show, that's why I made the jokes. Anyway should I write with this much Van/Fiona, or tone it down? I was experimenting here. Again, I need between 15-20 reviews to write the next chapter because I need to know if you like how it's going or how to make it better. So, please review! Ciao! -BlkStrmSwrdr17
