The next morning rolled around quickly and it looked to be another beautiful day. It was already 10 o'clock and everyone was already up. Jamie was getting breakfast ready as Risai walked into the kitchen. Everyone was sitting at the table.
"Good morning," greeted Leena.
"Good morning," responded Risai.
"How are you feeling?"
"Much better." She walked over and sat down just as Jamie brought out the pancakes. He set them down and then sat down himself. Everyone was already getting what they wanted from the stack before he even made it to his seat. They all ate happily; all of them too busy eating to talk. Soon enough, they had all finished and the stack was completely gone.
"Well Jamie, congratulations," said Brad.
"Yeah, you always seem to make the right amount," said Bit.
"Thanks guys," thanked Jamie. They all took their plates to the kitchen and then walked into the main room to sit down.
"I don't mean to spoil the mood or anything, but is everyone packed and ready?" asked Risai.
"Yep," they all answered.
"And you guys are sure about this?" asked Miharu.
"I think we've already answered that question," said Naomi.
"Sorry," said Risai.
"Like I said before, you don't have…" started Leena.
"To apologize, I know," said Risai. They both just smiled about it, no one knowing just what they were talking about.
"We'll be leaving soon, so you should prepare everything and load it all into the Hover Cargo," said Miharu.
"Alright," said Doc. "Come on team." He stood up and the rest of the Blitz team followed to go get their stuff and to load their zoids.
"What about the two of you?" asked Risai.
"We have a Gustav," responded Naomi.
"Alright," said Miharu. Just then, it hit Risai that they were missing something.
"Uh, Miharu?" she asked.
"What?"
"We left our zoids in the middle of the desert."
"I know that. You, of all people, should know that isn't a problem." She motioned to the bracelet.
"Oh yeah," said Risai. "Guess I forgot about that." She put her hand behind her head and smiled innocently.
"Well, we should get ready and go call our zoids."
"Okay." The two of them stood up and began to head towards the hanger, followed by Leon and Naomi. They got there as the Blitz team began loading their zoids into the Hover Cargo.
"We'll go get our zoids," said Leon, as he and Naomi went over to their Gustav. Risai and Miharu called their zoids. (A/N I don't feel like going through that again. You know how it works.) Soon enough, everyone was ready to leave, and so they did. Since the Gustav and Hover Cargo couldn't move as fast as the zoids could, Risai and Miharu had their zoids stay at the same pace. Their zoids were walking. In the cockpit, Risai was slouching in her chair, the restraints off.
"Great," she said to herself. She was obviously bored. "It took us nearly 3 days to get all the way out here."
"Don't complain," said Miharu over the com-link.
"But at the rate we're going, it'll take at least a day and a half, and that's if we don't run into any trouble on the way." Just then, another com-link popped up, revealing the Blitz team's faces, all of them trying to get in the picture.
"So where is it that we're going?" asked Bit.
"To the main camp of our forces," responded Risai.
"Where is that?" asked Leena.
"I know what you're getting at and it will take at least a day and a half to get there."
"How'd you know my next question?" asked Leena.
"Because it's the kind that I like to ask."
"Well, since it's going to take so long, why don't you two load your zoids in the Hover Cargo," suggested Doc. "There's still plenty of room."
"You sure?"
"Yeah, of course."
"Alright." She turned the com-link off. "Hey Miharu, did you here that?"
"Yeah."
"It's alright with you, isn't it?"
"Of course."
"Then let's go." They both stopped their zoids, the Phoenix landing near the Genosaurer. Since they were leading, the Gustav and the Hover Cargo stopped as well. Soon enough, the zoids were loaded into the Hover Cargo and they were once again on their way. They all decided to watch a movie for now, so they all sat down on the couches and began to watch whatever was on.
"Will it really take that long to get there?" asked Jamie.
"Well, if you think about it, it took us nearly 3 days to get to your base and we were on foot. I'm guessing it'll take half that time if we travel like this," said Risai.
"That makes sense," said Brad. There was then a moment of silence.
"So…what should we do?" asked Bit, breaking the silence. "There isn't anything good on." He was still flipping through the channels.
"Hey Dad?" asked Leena. She looked to Doc, who was sitting at a table playing with his zoid models.
"What?"
"Didn't you say you were going to put a game room in here?"
"Yes."
"When are you?"
"What?" He turned around to face Leena, finally paying attention to what she was saying. "The game room? Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. I already finished it."
"Cool!" exclaimed Leena. She stood up and began walking out of the room, followed by everyone else. They walked down the hall for a while and then came to a room that was filled with different kinds of entertainment.
"Whoa…" they all said in awe. There were virtual battle simulations, video games, a pool table and a foosball table. Not to mention pinball machines.
"Man, where did your dad get this stuff from?" asked Jamie to Leena.
"I don't know," said Leena.
"Well, why are we just standing here?" asked Bit. "What should we do first?"
"I have an idea," said Miharu as she walked towards the foosball table. "Anyone up for foosball." They all smiled and walked over.
"Okay, so who will be on whose team?" asked Jamie.
"How about boys vs. girls?" suggested Risai. All of them were getting excited about this.
"Sounds good to me," said Leena in a mischievous way, a smirk spreading across her face.
"Alright then, you're on," said Brad.
"Just be ready to loose," said Bit.
"We're gonna win," said Jamie. Even he was in the spirit of this.
"I don't think so," said Miharu as they all walked to their sides of the table. "The game is soccer. Let's see if you guys can back up that talk." They began to play and after only 10 minutes, the girls were ahead by a good 10 points.
"Well, looks like you guys are all talk," said Leena.
"Just you wait," said Bit. "We're gonna make a comeback." After 10 more minutes, the girls were still leading, only this time by 15 points.
"Let's face it," said Risai. "There's no way you're going to win. Just give up."
"I don't think so," said Jamie. Five more minutes later, the score was 10 to 25.
"We're still leading," said Leena.
"Yeah, but not for long," said Bit.
"Come on. We've already got 25 points," said Miharu.
"Let's play to 30," suggested Jamie.
"You're on," said Risai. They played for about 5 more minutes and the game was over.
"Man, we beat you big time," said Miharu.
"That was way too fun for me," said Risai.
"Good game," said Brad.
"Yeah," agreed Jamie.
"How'd you guys get so good at this?" asked Bit.
"Practice," said Risai, as she sat down in one of the chairs in the room. "And a lot of free time."
"The ZBC has rooms like this," said Miharu.
"Cool," said Bit.
"What next?" asked Brad. They were now all sitting, deciding what to do next.
"What time is it anyway?" asked Leena.
"Around 2," said Risai.
"We've got a lot of time left," said Bit. They all thought for a while, until Bit came up with something. "Why don't we have a pinball tournament?"
"Sounds good," said Brad.
"I'm in," said Risai. Everyone else nodded as well, so they went over to the wall of pinball machines. There were 3 machines, so they split up into groups of two. Bit and Jamie were on the first machine, Brad and Leena were on the second, and Risai and Miharu were on the third. The first game to end was between Risai and Miharu, Miharu being the victor. The next to end was Bit's and Jamie's, Bit being the victor, and Brad won his game.
"Okay, now what?" asked Leena.
"Yeah," said Jamie. "How do we do the rest of the tournament?"
"I'm thinking," said Bit, which took a while. "Well, we need one more person to even this out, so who got the highest score out of you three?" He pointed to Jamie, Risai, and Leena. Leena had gotten the highest, so she joined them. Miharu was facing Brad and Leena was facing Bit.
"Don't think I'll go easy on you, just because you're my girlfriend," said Bit.
"And I'm not cutting you any slack either." Bit won against Leena and Brad won against Miharu. It was the finals. The game lasted a while, 30 minutes to be exact, but in the end, Brad won. He seemed very pleased with this.
"When did you get so good at pinball?" asked Jamie.
"I don't know. I'm just a natural, I guess," responded Brad coolly. They all decided to hold more tournaments, finally finding the cure to their boredom.
