Just Can't Stop Thinking about you because I miss you…
How could I ever forget my best friend? I regret more and more everyday. But I have a plan it just taken me six months to think of it. I pace back and forth. I knew what I first had to do was get a house for me and Ro to live in. First I had to find a perfect location. Where they would never find Ro and me.
I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me
and every step I take reminds me of just how we used to be.
Well, how can I forget you, girl,
When there is always something there to remind me?
Always something they're to remind me.
I got it in a country called Portugal off a town of Vigo. The house is a beautiful Spanish origin. It was only about three hundred miles away from Kenna's and Kale's house. It has a breath taking view of the sunset over the ocean. Ro liked the ocean. She said it she never really saw it before but she knew it was beautiful her foster mother told her so. I hadn't really seen one either till I came here. I already have a room for Ro and I got her a pet as a present. I've got so many gifts for her they are uncountable.
The painting I got of the castle is over the fireplace right now. I filled the house with many paintings that were beautiful. Ro's dresses where in her room on her four post canopy bed. I walked into the room. I decorated it myself. It wasn't that bad. Blood red sheets, a fireplace in the middle, the canopy bed was red birch. Her room had a balcony with a view of that beautiful ocean. A painting over the fireplace of a volcano above an ocean of beautifully painted dolphins, whales, and fishes in a coral reef of a rainbow of colors.
As shadows fall, I pass the small cafe where we would dance at night.
And I can't help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight.
Well, how can I forget you, girl,
When there is always something there to remind me?
Always something there to remind me.
"Zeta my friend why the long face?"
"I miss Ro."
"We are going tonight back to the United States. We'll get her. Anyways Kenna's promised to get her back for you."
"I know but I shouldn't of walked away."
"You did as Ro wished right?"
"Yes, but it doesn't mean I still don't feel bad."
"We'll get her my friend." Kale walked out to where Kenna was sitting on the couch.
I was born to love her, and I will never be free,
You'll always be a part of me.
If you should find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share
Just come back to the places where we used to go, and I'll be there.

"Hi Kale what are you doing?"
"I was just talking to Zeta." (And looking at the prettiest face in the world but besides that nothing.)
"Zee." He never seemed to call him by the right name. His code name was Zeta. He rather gets called by Zee or at least that's what Ro told me. We where much alike. We looked alike as well. I had to help Zee get his friend back he saved me before from a falling pillar when Kale was busy fighting off Bennett and the other agents as disguised as Zeta.
I stood up. "It's time to go. The plane is going to leave soon." I grabbed onto Kale's arm and pulled gentle to make him follow me. Zee came out ready to go. He wanted to save his friend.
***
I watched as the little girl named Kenna grabbed onto Kale's arm. I knew he always would hate when she did that. She would play around with him all the time. I told him maybe she really liked him but he didn't believe me.
We got on the plane to Washington DC within the hour. It was a private jet so we were all alone. On the plane there was two rows of seats. They where allowed to lay down on the whole row as if it was a bed.
I was on one side and Kenna and Kale on the other. I saw Kenna start to drift off to sleep. She was always tired and worn out but who wouldn't when your constantly on the run from the people who want to get you back home. She didn't want to go back ever.
Kale told me that she was beaten up when he first met her. He found her in an alleyway. He thought she was dead but when she seem cried out for help he couldn't turn her down. He said that the story she told was a cover up for what really happened. He only knew the details. I heard she had a foster family and real family before that beat her. Her face was covered with gruesome bruises.
When I first saw her lying in front of the fire on a couch in their house. She was seriously ill and pretty much gave up the will to live. She seemed to like me enough now but before she was absolutely terrified of me. She overcame that fear and gave me a warm hug after.
I looked over at Kenna. She was asleep resting her head on his chest. He had an arm wrapped around her. He held her tight. I wondered if Kenna loved Kale or was it just Kale loving Kenna. Did he comfort her when she cries, when she was blue, would Kenna show her emotions to Kale? Ro never showed her emotions. She would show happiness sometimes but she made a mask of emotionless zombie. The streets life made that mask.
I wondered if Ro would do that with me, would she allow me to hug her. Or just be tough like she always is. She is sometimes so tough that I forget she isn't like me and can't heal automatically. I try to think of other things besides Ro but I can't anymore. I cant forget her. I promised her that till the day I returned to save her.
Well, how can I forget you, girl,
When there is always something there to remind me?
Always something there to remind me.
I was born to love her, and I will never be free,
You'll always be a part of me.
'Cause there is always something there to remind me.
Always something there to remind me
I stepped of the plane with Kale and Kenna after she took her long relaxing nap over the plane ride. I knew exactly where I was going and I was in a rush to get there. Kale and Kenna had to run to keep up. It didn't matter to me. I was going to get Ro back. My friend could be hurt.
***
I miss Zee I sit looking out the window of my prison. The window is bullet proof. I want Zee to come soon or I will give up hope but I close my eyes and I can see him there shielding me from Bennett and his agents. They ask where Zee would go. I tell them things that are guesses I hope that are wrong. I said Mexico. They didn't find him there. I said Japan. They searched there as well. I really don't know but they think I'm lying. I don't know what to do; I can hear them coming now.
Today I didn't feel well. As if I was going to be sick. I had a nasty cough. That Bennett and his agents wouldn't do a thing about it. I was just a prisoner they needed me just for information. But I had no information. They think I reprogrammed Zee to do my biding. What biding would that be? I felt dizzy and cold. I was weak as well. I don't know how long I could stand without passing out.
"Ro we have asked and asked will you please tell us where he is?"
"I told you I don't know. He's moving on his own free will. I didn't reprogram him. I'm no computer genies."
"Is that so then why does he follow you around?"
"We are friends. Don't you understand I help him and he helps me out." I wasn't even sure about that answer. I no I still believe Zee would keep his promise, he always showed to keep his word. Never had he broken his honesty with me. At least what I thought. I really couldn't see what he was thinking.
"You be friend a dangerous terrorist robot why?"
"He isn't dangerous. He would never hurt me. He promised me."
"So you befriended him because he is a gentle beast."
"He isn't a beast you are the monster. He knows right from wrong like to never hurt the innocent. He just doesn't want destroy anymore innocent lives for you. He told me that you can do that you lazy bum." I spat at him.
"Who is the innocent Roslien?"
"Children, mother's protecting their children, men protect their love ones, people who have been abandoned in the streets by their rotten parents."
"So you are innocent?"
"Depends on the charges."
"You corrupted Zeta."
"No I didn't I…" I fainted as I grew dizzy and weak. My body wouldn't fight anymore. I slumped against the chair.
**
I watched through the window. I saw Ro. She was arguing with Bennett. She seemed frustrated or angry probably both. I saw him pace back and forth. I decided I could get Ro out of there easily. I jumped through the window. Shattering it into a million pieces. The glass shards flew everywhere some flew at Ro's direction cutting her up pretty bad.
"Bennett she's telling the truth now let her go. She never did anything to you. I was the one who decided to not follow my program."
"I need back up here the robot is sight. He came back for the girl like we predicted." Out of the ceiling came a electrical net falling on Zeta dialing him. He lay motionless on the floor not giving much of a fight. Ro woke up after Zee was knocked out. She saw him lay on the ground and tried to get closer to help him or try to free him. She kicked and screamed in fury as Bennett had two guards hold her still.
***
"Zee, Zee wake up you need to get out of here." He didn't hear me. I wept as I fought against the guards who held me back. As I started to realize struggling was useless.
I saw a robot and a girl with blonde hair running along with him. I made sure they didn't see what I saw by screaming louder and thrashing around even more. I was becoming too much for the guards. I kicked and screamed till I passed out from the dizziness that plagued me.
***
The guards placed Ro on the ground. I salute her for distracting the guards as we run up to get them both. Ro seemed to pass out Zee was under a electric net of some kind. I handed Kale a pair of rubber gloves. "What is this for?"
"To protect you from the net. It's electric I don't want to have to save all three of you. I am limited you know."
He nodded as we jumped over the broken glass. Bennett and his guards were too busy dealing with Zee to notice. I cover my mouth with my shirt as Kale sent out a sleep gas. I walked over to Ro. She was knocked out alright. I checked her. Her forehead was extremely hot and her hands freezing.
Kale got the net off of Zee. Zee's holographic meganism was disabled again as it flashed different looks of people. One looked like Ro. I wondered when he had to change into that. "Kale is he alright?"
"Yes just disabled for the moment but not for long." Kale lightly kicked Zee and whacked him a little. He seems to wake up. I guess that's one way to revive him. Zee shook his head lightly as he shook it off. He changed into Zee form.
"Ro is she alright?"
"She's has a fever. But we have to get her back home first. Then we'll take care of her." He looked worried about his friend. Would Kale be the same way?
I would find out sooner than I hoped as a bomb was thrown in the room by young West. It blew the room apart. Zee dived to protect Ro from it. Kale and I where thrown from where we stood. Kale landed hard against the wall. I flew out the window Zee broke. I landed hard on my side on the grass.
"Kenna, Kenna say something."
"I just died in your arms." I sang a lyric from my favorite oldie song I heard my real father sing to me when I was a baby. He listened to many oldies, as that's what he listened to when he was a kid. My world grew dark.
***
I came out with Ro in my arms. Her limp body now badly scratched and bruised. I felt her head. She had a temperature of 102.7. The rest of her body felt cold. I knew she needed medical help right away. It was a good thing that they where on a private jet. We could ask the polite to start early since this was an emergency.
Kale picked up his friend's body as well. Her clothes were torn. He covered her with an over shirt she was wearing. He followed me swiftly as we ran all the way down to the airport. We crossed down to the air grounds of the small airport about a mile from where they where a minute ago.
On the airplane Kale and I held our counterparts closely. The pilot complied with their request of earlier departure. After take off and the where at a safe altitude Kale and I worked on temporarily fixing their wounds. I got Ro's fever to break and washed much of the dried blood from her cuts to wash off. I now could only hold onto her. As could Kale. He looked like he was having a rough time dealing with it.
I held Ro trying to seek myself comfort in holding on to her. Kale as well was holding Kenna to bring him comfort. Those two seemed to have a secret special bond together. I also had a secret bond with Ro. As if we knew what each other thought of. We would do that often. That she could just look at me a certain way and I could tell what she was thinking.
The plane ride back to Spain was six hours. I was left to my thoughts as we flew closer and closer back home. I saw Kale get up after a couple of hours. He grabbed Kenna's little bag she brought on the plane. He opened it to get out a laptop computer. As it started up he looked on the Internet. He motioned for me to come over.
"Zee look you and Ro are on America's most wanted Internet page."
"What for?"
"They don't have very good reasoning but saying that you kidnapped Ro and are a danger to society."
"That's not right. She wanted to come with me."
"That's not what it looks like." There was some pictures of me in my Zeta form. I had Ro in my arms injured and unconscious after the explosion. Another of me jumping the fence from the White House.
"Let's see if your on here Kale."
Big letters say kidnapping. McKenna Marie Kenneth. A picture of what she may look like now.
"You'd think they would get a closer description. They say you kidnapped her two years ago. But haven't you only known her for a year?"
"Yeah she's been missing for two years because she told me she felt safer on the streets than at her home."
"Where was she kidnapped from?"
"Some home of a FBI agent." Zee answered.
"Would it be agent Kenneth?"
"Yes isn't that her last name Summers though?"
"No her real last name is Kenneth. She could be considered to be kidnapped but she came of her own will."
"Why did you lie to us?"
"I didn't want her to be taken away. I didn't want her to get hurt again."
"It's her choice to stay or go Kale. We cant force her to go back home."
"I know but I couldn't lose her.
"Ro and I wouldn't take her. We would let her choose since she was in no intimate danger."
Kale went over and picked Kenna up. She was called many things brave, childish, mature, smart but never well. She had been sick over the last couple of months and she could die from this experience. I think Kale could tell that she was very sick but couldn't get her to a doctor.
Kale moved Kenna over next to Ro. Who seemed liked a big sister to little McKenna. She was sick again. I could tell. Kale placed a blanket under them as well over them along with a blanket for each of them that they where wrapped in. Little McKenna had a sweater in her bag along with a jacket. We placed the sweater on Kenna and slipped the jacket carefully on Ro.
I was on the net I came across a file that caught my attention. Registered birth certificates and Family records. I went into the database. I found Ro and McKenna's files. Their looks weren't of coincidence. They where born of the same mother and father and they had another sister and two other brothers out somewhere in the country.
"Kale look at this."
"Wow they are sisters no wonder they look so much a like."
"They have three other siblings as well."
"Where?"
"One nearby here in Spain. The other two are in America."
"Maybe we can help them reunite their family."
"We will have to wait and see."
"I know Kenna wants to find where she belongs."
"I think she belongs where she is loved."
Will Kale and Zeta reunite Ro and Kenna's family back together? Time will only tell.
