A/n Once again I dont own TREASURE PLANET!
As Amelia and Alton started to head for the Forest They ran into Jim and Ariah. "Hey Captain..Arrow. What's up?" "Bethany and Scarlet went into the Forest and we fear they have gotten lost. " Arrow Explained. Both Jim and riah's eyes went wide. "We'll help you!" Jim offerd. "thank you James. " The snow was hard to walk through and Amelia in her condiction really didn't need to be out there. Alton looked over at her , she seemd to be struggleing to keep up with them which was odd for his normally athletic wife. He stopped , let her get ahead just a bit a picked her up. "Alton!" She shouted in surpirse. "Amelia you needn't be walking in this snow." "Your going to carry me the enitre time?" "If I must . yes." "alton im pregnet not disabled." " All same i'm carrying you." "Well then walk faster!" He smiled and shook his head.
"Is it weird that im the one tierd?" Amelia asked after and hour or so. "Not really." was all he said. "Something wrong dear?" "Other then the obvious? " "...yes.." "Im just thinking how crazy our lives have been isnce we met that child." He smiled. "Like that time she almost killed you?" alton stopped for a moment chuckeld and countinued on his way.
_Four years earlier the Arrows had just really gotten settled into there new two story year old Bethany was playing 'kitchen' out side and needed mud but it haddn't rain in weeks so there wasn't any. Then she had an idea. 'The fire place has ashes!' she thought and ran off. once she got in there she remebered 'Oh but mama and daddy said no to...but if they dont know...' She looked around for them not seeing them she scouped up some in her hand. But just as she turned to leave she herd Amelia come in and paniked throwing the ashes into a near by cup. "Ah Bethany there you are." Amelia said stepping into the room. "Uh hi mum." "could come here for a moment dear? i need your help with something." "Oh okay.." She walked away trying to act like nothing was up cause Amelia could read minds so it seemed.
About an hour later she ran back in to retrive the coffee mug..it was gone! she loooked around and seen it sitting on her fathers desk where Alton was sitting doing paper work. "Uh dad?" "Yes Bethany?" He said still reading his paper he had in hand. "Uhh whered you get the cup?" "where I left it over there." He pointed over to the in table next to the fire place. "did you clean it?" "No..I just got itout of the cadnet...why are you asking?" He asked looking down at her . "N-No reason just wanted to make sure you was useing a clean cup."
The look he gave her told her he really didnt believe her but went back to his work. Bethany shrugged and turn away 'Oh well nothing I can do now.. He'll never know.' Not to much longer after that Alton began to itch all over but he innored it and went on with his work. "Something the matter Alton?" Amelia asked coming in the room looking and her franicly scratching husband. "Sorta Amelia I don't feel very well." He looked whiped out so Amelia stuck a hand to his forehead. "Your quite fevered. I think you need to go to the hospital." "Na I'm fine." "That wasn't a suggestion I dont want you spreading what you got." she said sorta joking.
Once he seen the doctors he got worse. Amelia sat in the waiting room with Bethany. "?"the doctor asked. "Yes? " Amelia said standing up. "Im Doctor husband is now stable." "stable ..what happen?""He had a sever allergic reaction to-" "The only thing he's allgergic to is Ash." "Right ,he comsumed a good bit." "What! H-How?" "We do not no ma'am he claims not to either..any one who would want to hurt him?" "Well not really...but no one's been at our home.. We will take good care of him and you may see him with in the hour..why dont you and your daughter go and get something to eat?" She nodded and took Bethany down stairs. the young girl haddnt said much of anything since the conseltation with the Doctor Kingsly. "Something wrong Beth?" "n-no mum.." "your lying?" "It's my fault daddy is sick.." She explained to Amelia everything. "Im sorry mum I-I really am I didnt know-" "Its alright Beth...its alright. But now you know what dissobaying your parents causes right? She nodded and said , "Daddy will be mad at me.. He'll probably hate me.." "No sweetheart he loves you no matter what he will not hate you."
"Now c'mon Beth let's go see him. " They accually let Beth go back into the ICU where Alton was. Bethany stayed behind Amelia as they entered a glass room Alton was in the bed with a single IV in his arm and more wires on his chest. "amelia.." He smiled. "Alton." She kissed him gently on the forehead. "Beth." "Daddy!" "They said it was a reaction to ash that I ingested...how?" "Alton, Beth has something she needs to tell you."Bethany explained to him just as she had with Amelia. "Come here.." He sais when she started crying scared as to what he felt. She climb upon the bed where he was and he hugged her. "Its Alright Beth accidnets happen. And no matter what I wont stop loving you , your my daughter"
"I coulda killed her." Amelia said laughing in his arms. "sir...Captain." Jim interupted them . "Yes?" "I think we'd best camp for the night." They were on the path unlike the girls were so every few miles there was little cabins you could rent nightly. Jim and Ariah got a two Bedroom one and Amelia and Alton got one. "You know if we werent looking for the girls because there lost this would be romantic."Amelia cooed. "It would...reminds me of our honey moon." "Ah yes the swishein moutains. beautiful." 'Well my love it is late. And we need our rest." He kissed her and got under the thick covers. She snuggled close to him worrying about the girls...
"You think this is okay?" "Well ya dont want to freeze to dealth do ya Beth?" Scarlet had found the path in the forest and had gotten them a cabin on her uncle credit card she 'borrowed' . Both snggled under there own little beds in the one room cabinnot knowing Amelia and Alton were 10 miles up the way...
