Chapter 36 – Back Home

Onika finally wakes up from a coma.

"Onika, your results were somewhat ... relevant." The doctor said.

"Really ... embark on my own mind was pretty bizarre." Onika said. "You get scared if you could read my mind."

"Well, you can go home now."

"So this is goodbye? Well, thank you."

Onika left the hospital and returned to her father's house.

Shany was walking from one side to the other.

"You want to stop being walking from one side to the other?" Anakin said, getting annoyed.

Shany stopped walking and stood.

"Shany what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

"Well, since you're right, then we can continue."

"All right, then. You and the squad can continue, while I and Kix stay to care for the wounded."

"Nothing like that. Both of you come with me, while Tyra and Inna care for them."

"But Master Tyra said it was for us to be care for the wounded."

"But I need you there." Anakin pulled her by the arm.

"What are you doing? You're hurting my arm."

Anakin dragged her to the outside of the house.

"What is the need of that?" Shany asked angrily.

Anakin carried her on his shoulders. "Now you stop complaining."

Shany felt dizzy. "Anakin, put me down."

"No, I said you'd come with me and you going with me."

"I'm not feeling well. I'm feeling sick, really. I'm not kidding."

"I also was not kidding when I said you would come with me."

Tyra appeared outside.

"Anakin, release her now." Tyra ordered.

Anakin put her down.

"Thank you, Master Tyra." Shany said.

"Go back inside, I know you're not well."

Shany went back inside and went to the bedroom of Inna.

"Shany, something happened?" Inna asked.

Shany sat up in bed. "Inna, there's something I want to tell you I just want you and your mother know."

"What, Shany?"

"Inna, I ended up arguing with my uncle out there, and then your mother went there and asked me to come inside."

"And then?"

"She also said that I was not well. Which is exactly about what I want to talk."

"Tell me."

"But please promise me you will not tell anyone."

Tyra went into the bedroom. "Shany, I would like to talk to you."

"Me too."

"Mom, Shany want to tell us something, but she just wants us to know that." Inna said.

Tyra looked Shany.

"I'm pregnant."

Tyra looked Shany, surprise. "Pregnant, but ... who's the father?"

"It was just so. I do not want Uncle Ani discover who the father of my child."

"But tell who he is." Tyra insisted.

"Kix, our medic platoon. And before you ask me, he knows."

"How old are you, Shany?" Inna asked.

"18. But my biggest fear is that Uncle Ani discover it and force me to abort my child."

"Do not worry, Shany. Anakin never know unless you tell. Oh, and the child you are expecting is a girl."

Shany smiled, happy to know that she will have a daughter. "A girl? I always wanted a daughter."

Anakin and his squad ends a relentless battle against the droids.

"Well, looks like it's over. Let's get out here."

Anakin and the rest of the battalion returned to the house of Tyra.

"Master Tyra, we're leaving." Anakin said.

"I know. Were you able to restore peace here on this planet. Congrats, I'm proud of you all."

"Then we will. Thanks for helping us Mistress Tyra." Shany said.

Inna hugged Shany and whispered in her ear. "Take care, Shany. Oh, and take good care of this little girl."

All returned to Resolute.

In her father's house, Onika takes her small suitcase in her old bedroom.

"Will you go back, Onika?" Jay asked.

"Yes, Jay. Our sisters need me."

Onika went to the front door of the house.

"Onika, take care of your sisters. They need you." Jerry said.

"Okay, Dad."

Onika left the house of her father and returned to her ship toward Resolute.

Dhemetria finishes Candy's bathe and dry him.

"Candy, when Shany come back she'll be happy to see you smelling so good." Dhemetria puts him a translator collar that she did. "Let's see if it works."

"Dhena, you are a genius. This collar works."

"Now you "speak". This is incredible."

"I think they have returned."

Candy climbed out of bed and went to the hangar. Dhemetria followed.

To the surprise of both, Shany and the rest of her team back.

"Hello, Shany. I missed you." Candy's collar sounded.

"Candy, you talk." Shany said, catching him in her lap.

"Actually, that collar speaks for me." Candy realized Kix was next to Shany. "Hey, asshole, do you remember me?"

Everyone around laughed. Shany hold her laugh.

"Apparently, he hates you, Kix." Shany said.

"I've noticed." Kix said in a dejected tone.

Shany went to her room to change clothes. Shany put Candy in her bed, and began to take off her shirt. Kix appeared then.

"It was a bad idea your sister create a leash to tell everything that your tooka is thinking." Kix was complaining to Shany.

Shany looked Kix. "I'll remember that." Shany sat on her bed. "Seriously, it was very funny Candy call you 'asshole' in front of everyone."

"I wanted to see if it was you, you... fat."

Shany got up. "Say that again, you asshole."

Kix pulled Shany closer to him.

"You're my favorite chubby." Kix said, taking her chin.

"And you're my favorite asshole." Shany said, rubbing her nose on his face.

"Okay, now those two kiss again." Candy complained.

With intent to provoke her tooka, Shany kissed Kix. Kix was surprised to see the way Shany was kissing him and placed his hands around her waist.

"I loved it when you did it." Kix said while kissing her.

"Did what?"

Kix continued kissing her, just as she did.

"Kix, let's stop for a moment? I still need to change my clothes."

Kix separated from Shany so she wore other clothes. Kix observed when Shany removed her boots and her pants.

Candy looked at Kix.

"Stop looking at her, you asshole."

"Candy, I can only call him that." Shany said.

Shany took a jumpsuit and wore.

"Looks like I'm fat?" Shany said.

"Stop saying you're fat. You are perfect." Kix said.

Shany smiled and sat next to Kix. "You're sweet."

Candy rubbed her belly.

"Candy?" Shany was surprised.

"Admit it, girl. Are you expecting a child, right?"

Shany just nodded without saying a word.

"Congratulations to you two, lovebirds. I really hope that your child will be born healthy."

Onika entered her bedroom.

"Onika, you're back." Shany said, happy to see her sister.

Onika hugged Shany. "I'll never get away from you."

"Onika, you do not know."

"What happened?" Onika looked Kix.

"Shany is pregnant." Kix said.

"Congratulations, Kix and Shany. I'm sure that this child will be beautiful, just like you two."

Shany and Kix looked at each other and smiled.

Onika took Candy in her lap. "Hi, my favorite shaggy."

"I hope you're okay now, Onika. Was alarming to see you paranoid."

Onika approached her nose in Candy. "Wow, you smell so good."

"Thank you. This was thanks to Dhena. She gave me a bath with shampoo of the soldiers."

Onika handed Candy for Shany. "Shany, I know he loves you very much."

"And it's also very jealous." Shany said.

"It's not jealousy. I just do not want Kix disappoint you." Candy started licking her face. Candy looked at Kix. "I'm still watching you, boy."

Kix left her room.

"Are you hungry?" Onika asked.

"Yes, I was pretty much the whole day without eating. I just ate a fruit on Naboo." Shany said.

"Oh, how good you are hungry. I say this because I brought those chicken pies that only Daddy can cook." Onika took a pot from her purse, with 20 mini-pies.

"I was even with a mad desire to eat them."

"Well you can eat enough. I brought them specially for you and Dhena."

Shany ate the first mini-pie. "I miss those pies."

Shany ate four other and Onika put the rest on her purse. Shany lay in bed.

"I hope you enjoyed. Daddy These little treats are a delight." Onika said.

"I know."

Candy lay on the side of Shany and gave a long yawn.

"Looks like it's time to sleep." Onika said, climbing into his bed. "Good night."

Shany wrapped herself with a blanket. "Good night."

Onika, Shany and Candy finally fell asleep.
