Love and Hate
Written by kklo during Christmas holidays 1997/98

Kickstart opened his eyes and and stared up at a white ceiling.
All air in the room felt fresh and summer-warm, cleaning. With closed eyes breathed the tall martian of it until his ears heard something so he opened his eyes, only to see Amanda's green eyes watching him.
She didn't reply his smile and her hand touched his cheek gently, caressing his face.
"For one moment, I thought we were going to lose you. The bullets went right through your shoulder."
"It doesn't feel that bad. Just a dull pain. Don't worry, I will be all right."
A long silence followed.
"I think we should sleep for a while." Amanda suggested when the silence became too intense.
"Where is your sleeping shelter?"
"They made me a bed on the floor, over there..." she pointed at some felts in a corner. "I tried to sleep, but I couldn't. So I've watching you for a few hours."
He was quiet and felt how that love-flame for her burnt inside.
"I have to sleep now, and try to get some sleep too Kick."
She rose from the bed but Kickstart grabbed her arm gently and dragged her back.
"Amanda... Sleep here, with me, in my arms." He begged and then kissed her throat, let the hands caress her body. She shivered by his gently touch.
"No... You are tired and need your sleep. Maybe we shouldn't..."
"I'm not tired. I have never felt more awake before."
"But you're hurt..."
"It's nothing. I can take more than you think. I love you, I really know that I love you. I want you to know it."
She looked in his eyes one more time before she let go of the fear and whispered, "Prove your love Kick. I will prove mine."
They began to kiss each other passionately and Amanda let him pull her down in the bed. He didn't wear anything else than his trousers and she had only a nightdress. Their clothes disappeared like in a dream.

Tony Amberlay is a total different stat. He was furious and ran around in his house and broke everything he could break into pieces.
Amanda had changed sides. How did she dare to do something like that?
Of course it was because that martian he had shot.
He wondered if it hadn't have been better to kill that mouse, instead of just warning them.
That mouse surely hated her by now, because she was a danger to him. Amanda would surely come back.
She was coming back, soon.
One thing made him very annoyed: the knowledge that he couldn't reach Charley.
It was dark night outside the windows but he didn't sleep. He didn't need sleep.
The big room he was in was cold, and empty. Except an armchair.
He sat down and stared into the air, thinking.
Suddenly he got an idea and he started to giggle. Kill them all, that's it, that's it!
Everyone, but he had do it very neat and vee-eery properly.

When she woke up was calm heartbeats what she heard.
Amanda felt warmth from another body close to hers. Her eyes didn't want to open, didn't want to take the risk and wake up from a wonderful dream.
A hand gently rubbed her face, forcing her to take the risk. She gazed into Kickstart's dark-green eyes.
"Mornin'." he said lowly and smiled at her. She cuddled up closer to him and his arms welcomed her.
"What a night. You're hurt but I didn't even remark it."
"I didn't ever notice my wounds."
They were silent until he suddenly said: "I have to leave, when this is over. I can't stay on Earth."
"Please don't leave me here. Take me with you."
"You really want to come with me?"
"Yes. Yes! Kickstart, don't you dare to leave me."
He laughed, kissed her tenderly and said: "Don't worry my love. I will never, never leave. Don't even think about it."
"It is so strange. We met yesterday, but it feels like we've known each other for years. We're behaving worse than teenagers."
"Yeah, but it feels GOOD sweetie. It feels really good. And right." Kickstart answered quickly and kissed her again.
Someone knocked the door and walked in. Charley was standing there and just looked at them and Amanda released herself from Kickstart's arms and sat up.
"Huhm, morning. It was kinda lonely...to sleep alone."
"It makes me feel better to see that you two are all right. But you'd better get up now. The other guys will soon wake up." Charley said and couldn't hold a smile back.
She left and closed the door.
Amanda got up and quickly she dressed herself again.
Kickstart just laid in the bed, looking at her. Thinking about how beautiful and wonderful she was, wishing he could have her in his arms the whole day.
"I will be right back." Amanda said and kissed him before she left the room.
Kickstart sighed a little bit sad and stretched slowly.

Limburger sat in his office and turned around when he heard Tony Amberlay entered the room.
"Guests should knock on the door!" Limburger said quite chilly.
Tony didn't answer him and made a gesture.
Five dark-dressed men entered the office.
"Here is your new staff and they will help you to destroy those annoying Martians you were talking about. Now to the business: where's the payment?"
Limburger didn't try to sound nervous when he said: "Ehh, it's down in Karbunkle's lab, come with me."
Amberlay followed and the five men followed too without saying a word.
In the lab, Limburger talked as friendly as he could.
"Well, old friend. Let's have a drink first." He waved to Karbunkle, who gave them two drinks.
"In your drink, dear Amberlay, Karbunkle has his elixir which will take your will away! " Limburger thought.
Amberlay gave him a suspicious look.
"Okay. Let's drink this stuff, and then go to business."
With a quick move took Tony one of the glasses, nd Limburger took the other.
Tony wasn't blind and knew that there was something in his drink, so he had quickly and easily taken Limburger's drink instead.
He emptied it slowly and Limburger did the same with the mind-controller-drink.
At once he fell into a kind of trance and Amberlay sighed loadly.
"How stupid to even TRY to play easy tricks like those with me!"
He turned to Karbunkle. "Let's see how effective this stuff is!"
Karbunkle went back, but two of the men came up behind him. He started to sweat.
"Heh heh..." he laughed nervously.
"Okay, you fucking fish face!" said Amberlay in a cheerfully voice. "You have no money to pay me with, right?"
"Uuh, That's ri..., uh, right." Limburger answered.
"As I thought from the beginning! Okay guys. Let's have a little bit fun!"
The men started to laugh and Karbunkle looked like a little boy who just had realized that his dad was going to spank him.

Limburger Plaza was a real chaos when Tony Amberlay and his five men left.
They carried some useful things they had found and they all felt in high spirits.
Tony laughed for himself and thought about what he was going to do with Charlene later in the day.
He was going to kill her, before the mice's eyes, kill her slowly. Then he would kill that mouse he shot yesterday before Amanda's eyes, then one after one.
The dark brown eyes of his glowed for a second by the thought and he laughed slowly.
It was not good to hurry and Limburger was out of the game. He could fix other business and wait until that other mouse had healed, then he could kill them all.

The days passed slowly, and it was very silent in the city.
Tony Amberlay was totally gone but the Biker Mice slept in the garage just because it was safer for everyone.
The Biker Mice had heard that the whole Limburger Plaza was almost destroyed by someone and both Limburger and Karbunkle had been taken to a special hospital.
In the beginning had they tried to find out what happened but Amanda told them not to think about it.
"And I have other things to think about." she said to Charley one evening, blinked and went into the bedroom.
Charley just smiled and shook her head.
Amanda was surprised over the powerful feelings she had for him. She had thought that she never would love someone like that.
All nights were they together, all days. They had started to share their lives with each other completely.
It didn't take Kickstart too many days to come up to his feet again.

One day said Vinnie: "That a psycho-guy seems to have disappeared."
Amanda who sat in Kickstart's lap and cuddled with him suddenly stopped and looked at Vinnie.
"Don't be too sure. Tony Amberlay is like a snake. You don't recognize him before he goes to attack. He will never give up so easy. I'm scared."
Kickstart held her close to him and let his left hand ran through her long brown hair.
"Don't be scared, darling. I will protect you with my own life if necessary." he whispered.
She kissed him in reply and Vinnie stared at them.
"Hey Vinnie." Charley said silently to him. "You have Harley. Don't look so sad."
"Yes, but she is far away. But...here I have you babe!"
"Don't even think about it." Charley laughed.
Two weeks later.
Nothing had happened. It was so calm around that Stoker had started to talk about "traveling back".
It was no use to stay. The information which had been stolen was in safe hands. Amanda had never given them to Amberlay and it was nothing to worry about after all.
Their mission had ended many days ago.
That morning when Kickstart woke up was Amanda gone.
No one of the others had seen her leave and Kickstart was a little bit worried she wouldn't come back anymore.
But she came back in the evening, looking very tired, but seemed to be in a good mood.
Yet, something wasn't alright. She behaved strange, didn't eat or talk much and seemed to be in deep thoughts all the time.
When they went to bed later that evening laid Kickstart his arms around her and smiled tenderly.
She didn't reply the smile, just laid her arms around his body and rested her head against his chest.
"Kick, there is something I have to tell you."
"What is it sweets?"
She was silent and shut her eyes.
"What's the matter honey? Are you okay?" he asked worried.
She slowly rubbed his naked chest almost as an answer, opened her eyes, gazed into his and spoke: "Kickstart...I...I am... I am pregnant..."
It hit him hard, He just hadn't any words to reply with, they had disappeared. Stunned by the news.
His gaze automatically ran down to her stomach and he just opened his mouth and closed it again. He was going to have a baby with her.
"I am going to have an abortion next week. Don't worry."
Kickstart woke up, laid his hands on her cheeks and looked deep into her eyes.
"No love. I want this kid. I want to become a father. I will take care of you. Do you want the same?"
She shook and whispered: "Yes, oh yes. I want to become a mother, and your wife. I will come with you."
They hugged each other and Amanda almost cried by happiness.
"We have to start to discuss names soon." laughed Kickstart and held her tight.

Next morning were Biker Mice, Stoker and Charley in the small living-room and had breakfast, when suddenly someone knocked on the door.
"I will check it out." said Charley and she went to the door.
She opened it and jerked back in shock, but smiled widely at the same time.
"Anthonie!" she laughed and the tall man smiled at her.
"Charlene Davidson. It has been long time since the last time I saw you. Can I come in for a while?"
"Of course, come in and meet my friends." Charley said and smiled.
He closed the door and followed her.
"Guys, let me introduce an old friend." Charley said to the Biker Mice and Stoker.
She waved to Anthonie and he walked into the room and smiled kindly.
"This is my old friend..." Charley said at the same time as Kickstart and Amanda entered the room via the 2nd door. "...Anthonie..."
Amanda's eyes became big and an expression of horror appeared on her face.
"But we often called him Tony...and..." Charley lost her words when she saw Amanda and realized the truth.
Filled with fear turned she around slowly and looked at the tall man behind her.
With a horrible quick movement had he grabbed her and before anyone could do anything did he put a sharp knife against Charley's throat.
"Charlene, my little girl. I have got you now and I told you, that you can never escape." he mumbled calmly, then laughed.
The backdoor broke into pieces with a bang and the five black-dressed men hurried into the garage.
"Oh, my underlings..." Tony said and rubbed Charley's throat with the knife's blade while the men went in a fight with the Martians.
Kickstart hissed to Amanda: "Run darling, don't worry about me! Be careful with our child!"
She escaped from the room in despair and fear.
A horrible fight started, five human men VS five Martian males.
When they fought, Tony kissed Charley who was stunned by fear.
He rubbed her cheek and whispered: "They wont survive this, my beloved Charlene...and you wont either..."
But suddenly did he make a mistake; he took the knife from Charley for a moment.
She kicked him on his lower shin and jerked away.
"You fucking BITCH!" he roared and tried to grab her again. She jerked away again and he missed her.
Tony couldn't say so much more because Throttle had attacked him from behind.
Charley was safe and ran after Amanda, found her in the small bedroom she and Kickstart shared.
"I have called the police...they'll be here soon!" Amanda said quickly.
At the same time had two of the dark-dressed men been out counted, but three of them plus Tony Amberlay were still left.
One of the men did a jump-kick on Stoker who fell to the ground with a loud thud, but in the next second had Modo grabbed him and smashed him into the wall.
Throttle tried to lock Amberlay in a grip but the man was too strong.
Damn it! Throttle thought. He is as strong as Modo!
With a horrible grin in the face punched Amberlay Throttle in his stomach so he lost his grip.
He then laid his hands around Throttles throat and tried to strangle him.
No air came down through Throttle's throat and he saw the world slowly fade out and a million of stars started to fly around before his eyes.
Suddenly grabbed two strong arm Amberlay and jerked him away from Throttle who tried to breathe and now succeeded.
He got up and coughed a lot.
Two big police-men stood there and held Amberlay in a firm grip.
One of them put hand-cuffs on him and he screamed in madness and rage.
"Looks like we came at the last second mister!" said the second Policeman and helped Throttle to his feet.
Amanda ran over to Kickstart who stood beside Vinnie and looked down at the five men they had knocked out.
He opened his arms and hugged her softly and whispered so only she would hear it: "I want to hug you harder, but we have to think about our baby."
She slapped him playfully, then laughed in happiness and kissed him.
Three other cops came into the garage and dragged the knocked out men into a big van.
One of the cops was female and she said to Charley: "Great job your friends over here did..." she looked at the Martians. "...to take care of these persons. We've been looking for them for a long time. They have a lot of crimes behind, so you don't have to worry about them. They will spend a lot of years in jail."
"What will happened to Amberlay?" Charley asked.
"He will be locked into a special clinic. He is one of the most dangerous men in the whole US and has to be kept very safe."
"Well." she finished, "Thanks for all your help. You will hear from us later."
She went into the big van and it drove away through the street.
"Puh!" Vinnie said and wiped away some sweat from his forehead.

Amanda hugged Charley hard and said: "I'm going to miss you."
"I will miss you too. I hope you will have a great life up there."
"I'm sure I will."
"We have to leave." Kickstart said from behind.
Amanda turned to Biker Mice and said: "I really want to thank you all guys. I'm sure we will see each other in the future the same to you Charley. Bye until then."
She waved and followed her soon-to-be husband into the space-ship.
It started and flew slowly up in the air, accelerated, and disappeared into the sky.

The room was white and the lamps in the high roof were shining over it.
In a corner sat a person in white clothes.
His head was hanging and he mumbled for himself.
A doctor watched him outside the cell.
He left and the man in the cell suddenly went up, and started to fly around, hit the walls and screamed: "I am the father Time...HA HA HA! I control the world! HA HA HA!"
His dead laughs echoed in empty, silent corridors, but no one could hear him.

A very little human girl went into a big building somewhere in the universe.
She was four years old and named Andrea.
Fast as a wind ran the girl through the building and met many Martians who smiled when they saw her.
Her target was a pretty small office.
Inside the office sat a tall martian mouse behind a desk, working with some papers.
He looked up when the door slammed open and saw the little girl.
With a big smile raised the martian himself from the chair and laughed loudly when the little girl jumped into his arms.
She hugged him and said with a clear voice: "I missed you dad and mom is pretty busy. Can I stay here with you?"
"Of course dear." said Kickstart, his smile turning even wider.
He placed his little daughter on the desk and sat down.
"Dad, have you heard about what mom has found?"
"Huh? No, what has she found honey?"
"A piano! And she's going to teach me how to play it." beamed Andrea happily.
"A Piano?! In OUR home?! Oh my GOD!" exclaimed Kickstart and raised himself so violently that the chair fell to the floor.
"You'd better hurry dad! A few friends to mom have already arrived with it."
Kickstart got a scared expression in the face when he understood what kind of music he would be forced to hear in the future, got up quickly and picked up his daughter in his arms.
He hurried outside and left his office to the shadows.
