A/N: I'll let you go then DragonWinlan. I guess I'll have to start work on
my day with them. When you get Marjor Karl Lichen Shubultz back, I'm going
fight any woman I have to to get him. I REFUSE TO LOSE!!
On a lighter note, I decided on Moonbay's ZOID. But, you won't know until the next chapter. It fits her perfectly and I think she'll do fine in it. So you'll just have to wait. Ain't I a stinker?
Raven waited until he was sure Van was asleep until he made his move. Carefully, he removed his headphones and got out of bed. He stepped over Zeke and walked towards the window. He was going to meet Moonbay on the roof for a midnight rendezvous. He wanted to see her. And he did not now, nore had he ever wanted or needed a baby-sitter.
He knew she would be there waiting for him. It was her idea. She was a good guy, but she had her bad girl moments. He climbed out the window and started his assent to the roof.
When he got there, he saw her. She was wearing a white silk night gown. Since the wind was blowing, part of her thigh was showing. It was spaghetti strap and lace around her bust line. Her hair was down and it blew in the wind freely like a brown banner. Her eyes were closed as she enjoyed letting the breeze play in her hair and gown.
Raven himself was in a pair of black shorts that he worn when he went running without his ZOID. And an old gray T-Shirt that had a faded black Superman logo on it. He was perched on the side of the roof; holding his chin in his palm. He knew he could watch her all night; just sitting there like a goddess.
" Oh, hey Raven." She said opening her eyes and smiling at him.
" Kami-sama you're beautiful." He said dreamily.
" Thank you Raven." She said getting a slight pink tent in her cheeks.
He climbed up the on the roof and sat next to her. She scooted next to him and rested her head on his shoulder. He put his arm around her and rested his chin on her hair.
" Raven?" She asked.
" Hm?" He said.
" Do you want to get married?" She asked.
" Huh?!" He said breaking away to look at her in shock.
" Not now Raven. I mean eventually." She said.
" Oh. Well then.... I don't know Baybay. Would you marry me?" He asked.
" Are you proposing?" She asked smiling.
" Uh... I..." He trailed.
" Relax, I'm just kiddin'. But to answer your question, I guess I would if you asked me." She said.
" Why?" He asked.
" Because I love you. You're different from any other guy I've dated and you make me happy." She said.
" Would we have kids?" He asked.
" I've always wondered what it'd be like to be a mother. What about you? Would you like to have a few Raven's running around?" She asked.
" I don't know how to take care of kids." He said.
" No body knows the first time. You make it up as you go. Besides, you won't be alone." She said taking his hand and interlocking their fingers.
" Good to know." He said smiling.
They remained on the roof in silence for a little while longer; content being in each other's presence. Moonbay wondered how much longer Raven would be able to stay up here with her since Van was right under them.
" Raven, shouldn't you be going? I mean you don't want to get caught do you?" She asked.
She got no answer.
" Raven?" She said.
" Zzz.... Zzz.... Zzz."
" Oh Raven." She sigh sweatdropping.
She used her free hand to dig into his unprotected side. Rave yelped and jumped up.
" What was that for?" He asked.
" You were sleeping on me. You should leave before Van throws a hissy." She said standing and stretching.
" Fine." He sighed.
He went to kiss her goodnight again, but didn't let go. Moonbay laughed.
" Raven, in order for you to go, you have to let me go." She said.
" I do? Nevermind then. I don't like that idea." He said.
" Do I have to tickle you again?" She asked.
" Alright, I'm leaving. Are you coming?" He asked walking to the edge.
" I'll be down in a little while. I don't have a baby-sitter remember?" She said.
" Ha ha. Goodnight." He said dryly.
With that he jumped over the edge and made his way to his room.
****************
Moonbay reclined back on the roof. She didn't want to leave just yet. She was daydreaming, or rather, nightdreaming, about the questions they had asked each other. What would it be like to be married to Raven? And to have a child with him? She had to admit it wasn't the worst thought she'd ever had. She also knew that marriage was not easy; and raising a child would be even harder.
" At least we could try. I know we can handle it." She said smiling.
She was so caught up in talking to herself that she didn't notice the figure creeping up behind her. They were much bigger than her and they had been watching her ever since Raven left. Their eyes roaming over her body slowly.
They brushed their lips against the back of her neck. She giggled to herself.
" Quit it Raven. I thought you left." She said.
" Raven is gone. But I'm sure we can work something out." Said a smooth, deep voice.
Moonbay gasped. But before she could scream, a cloth came over her mouth and a sweet smell filled her nose. She was out like a light.
The figure lifted her over their shoulder and dropped a peice of paper on the roof and put a small stone on it. Then he backed up on the roof until something red grabbed him and flew off.
***************
~Next Morning~
" What do you mean she's gone?!!"
Fiona had awoken to find Moonbay was gone. She looked all over the hotel, but she couldn't find her. Then she went to get Van and Raven.
" She can't be gone. I just talked to her last night." Raven said.
" You snuck out?!" Van said.
" Yea. You're a lowsey baby-sitter." He said.
" Chikushoo Raven!!" He yelled.
" Oh shut up Van. We don't have time for you to throw a tantrum. Right now, we have to find Moonbay." He said walking to the window.
" Where are you going?" He asked.
" To the roof. That's the last place I saw her." He said climbing the side of the building.
" The roof?! Do you have any idea how dangerous that is?!" Van yelled.
" Why do you think we did it in the first place? Anybody can take somebody out, but can you say you've met your girlfriend on the roof in the middle of the night? Of course you can't. Because you're a doofus Fahrenheit." He said shutting the window.
" IT'S FLYHEIGHT!!!!!!!!"
***************
Raven ignored Van's cursing and looked around on the roof for any clues. He didn't seem to find any trace that she had been there except for a rock. When he got a closer look, the rock was holding down some paper. It was a note addressed to him.
~Raven,
We have the transporter. If you want her back then come to the abandon mine outside of the city and come alone. If the Guardian Force is with you, she dies. If you try and pull any tricks, she dies as well. If you don't come, we'll leave her body where you can find it.
Reese~
Raven crumpled the note and punched the roof. He couldn't believe this. He had left her alone up here and now Reese and Hiltz had her. He was really going to make them pay now. They were going to get it. But he would only attack when he was sure Moonbay was alright.
" Uraaagghhh....! Shadow!!" He yelled.
The black organoid burst up from the roof and almost hit Raven in the process.
" You stupid organoid!! Go get the Geno Saurer ready! We're leaving!" He said.
Shadow growled.
" I'm well aware of that!! Just do as I say and try to stay outta sight!" He ordered.
Shadow opened his wings and went off.
******************
" Wake up little transporter."
Moonbay could hear a voice echoing in her mind. She cracked open her eyes. She was up against a rock wall with her hands chained to it. She tried to break them and get free, but they were strong. She couldn't hardly see around her, except the light that was at the end of the cave. She wondered how she got there and what happened.
" We brought you here." The voice echoed again.
" Who are you?" She asked sharply.
" You can call me a friend. I'm protecting you from what may happen if you stay with Raven." She said.
Ina flash, Moonbay was hit with a ruch of images. Raven standing over her laughing inside his Geno Saurer. All around her, things are burning and people are dying. Now the charged particle gun is pointed at her. She can't believe it.
" He will turn on you. Raven cares for no one but himself. He will just use you to get close enough to the Guardian Force so he can destory Van. He doesn't give a godd#$% about you." She said.
Then the images stopped. Moonbay was in shock. Was she right? Did Raven really only want to get close enough to the Guardian Force to get to Van. Maybe he didn't care about her.
" That's right. He doesn't care." She said.
Then Moonbay thought back to all the tme she spent with Raven. He stayed by her bedside the entire time she was in the hospital and he had plenty of chances to kill Van while he was there but he didn't. He told her he loved her. And she believed him.
She shook her head and laughed. The owner of the voice appeared. A blue- haired girl in a blue, red and green dress appeared. She was confused.
" What are you laughing at?" She asked.
" You. You like to play mind games don't you, Reese?" She said.
" How do you know my-"
" Raven. He warned me about you. You like to taunt and mess with others. Well, I've got a little game with you. What's black and off white and white all over?" She asked.
" I don't... know." She said.
" Mine and Raven's wedding." She said smiling.
Reese got mad and backhanded her. Moonbay still laughed.
" Shut up!! Stop laughing!" She yelled.
" Here comes the bride." She taunted.
Before Reese could hit her again, a hand caught hers.
" Leave her alone. She obviously is out of your league." Hiltz said.
" But-"
" We need her alive. Now go." He ordered.
Reese huffed and left. Moonbay watched Hiltz. He was smirking. She didn't know him and already hated it. He walked around in front of her; scanning her body. She realized she was still in her night gown. She jerked her body and covered herself completely.
Hiltz kneeled in front of her and took her chin in his hand.
" You know, Raven has great taste. You're cute." He said.
Moonbay spit in his face. He calmly wiped it off and pressed his mouth hard to hers. She cried out in surprise and bit his tongue. Hiltz jerked back and wiped the blood from his mouth.
" You better be nice to me," He grabbed her by her face; his thumb and fingers on either of her cheeks," It it by my will alone you survive this encounter. Cause when Raven comes, I'll kill you."
" You do me a favor Hiltz. When Raven kills you, you think of me." She said.
He smirked. Then got up and left.
" And I hope you get a CPB right down your throat you big, red, jerk!!"
On a lighter note, I decided on Moonbay's ZOID. But, you won't know until the next chapter. It fits her perfectly and I think she'll do fine in it. So you'll just have to wait. Ain't I a stinker?
