Author's note: So the epilogue is up. Thank you so much to everyone who has followed this story and to everyone who has reviewed (especially SariSpy56 who has stuck with me from the beginning). It definately means a lot to me. :). I hope you all enjoyed it.


"Aw-come-on-pleeeaase," Rev begged.

Ace looked at the kneeling roadrunner in front of him, his expression unchanging despite the puppy-dog eyes Rev was directing at him. "No," he stated.

Rev's expression dropped, "Come-on-Ace,-I've-healed-fine.-Even-my-arm-is-better-now.-Let-me-come-too,-please."

"No, Rev."

"Why-not?" The roadrunner sulked.

Ace sighed, "Please Rev, I don't want a repeat of what happened: you're still not fully back in shape and I don't want ta be worried about you in a battle zone; so you're staying here for my peace of mind."

Lexi shook her head at the situation before her. She had been right: three weeks had passed since the Birdwatcher incident and in that time, Rev had become an almost permanent feature of the tower. To begin with, Ace's reasoning had been sound: Rev hadn't healed yet, his arm was broken, etc. But as time wore on, Ace's excuses grew more and more thin and Rev became more and more irritated by his restricted lifestyle.

Lexi knew that Ace would have to come to terms with it eventually; but until then, Rev needed something to take his mind off his limited freedom.

Tech had been thinking along the same lines. Looking at his sulking friend Tech sighed, knowing exactly what the result of his next words would be, "Come on Rev, let them leave, I need your help in the lab now anyway."

"Really?-Sweet!-Race-you-there!" Rev took off excitedly with Tech following close behind.

"Wait, Rev don't touch the-" his sentence was cut off by a loud crash followed by the exclamation of, "Eek, Tech!" and the coyote's sigh.

Despite how serious the situation probably was, Lexi couldn't help smiling. Yep, finally everything was going back to normal.


So what do you think? I quite liked this section, I love the fact that Ace would be so overprotective and that Tech would be willing to help his friend out dispite knowing what would happen to his lab. It also gave me an excuse to why Rev doesn't have much of a part in the two episodes straight after 'Family Business'. Check them out, "Cape Duck' and 'The Hunter', Rev is practically non existant in them. It kind of annoyed me at first but I don't mind so much now because I can just imagine that Ace is being overprotective and leaving Rev and HQ. Anyway, I've been rambling on for way too long. Thanks again for reading this and any last minute reviews would be very welcome.

Goodbye for now,

Candlestic.
