A Reason To Love
"Woah... this is a pretty big city!" Moonbay stated as she looked around at the flashy lights. The people milled around her, streaming into stores and out of them, and continuing to live on their daily lives. She left the Genosaurer outside in a cave she found, until she could find a proper place to keep it. Surely, the people wouldn't be too happy being near a Genosaurer. Moonbay grinned, patting a hidden pocket in her skirt. It was full of hard-earned money from her transporter days... her employers have been wondering lately why Moonbay wasn't taking on any jobs. Usually, she was more than eager to take them. She loved being a transporter. And she loved money. She told them that things have come up and that she was busy. She wasn't lying either- for about three fourths of her time she was trampling around in her Genosaurer with her ears open for any signs of her patch eyed friend. So she deserved some relaxation... but first she needed to find a place for the Genosaurer.

"Sooo... why were you getting beaten?" Sei asked from the piloting seat.
Irvine didn't answer.
"Well?"
"...Cuz I didn't tell them whatever they wanted me to tell."
"What was that?"
"Why do you wanna know?"
Sei looked back at him. "Ya don't have to get defensive on me. I was just wonderin... that's all. Sorry if I offended you. Hey...I never found out your name."
Irvine grunted and glanced out the window. The sandy plains were turning into green trees and grass.
"It's Irvine. Where're we going?"
"To Keures. It's the closest civilized place... and I'm pretty familiar with it. Once I get there, I'm gonna get myself some clothes!"
"Hey... girl... do you know any hangars owned by a old crazy man around here?"
"My name isn't girl! It's *Sei*! I don't know any crazy old men that own hangars..."
Irvine sighed.
"We're here!" Sei whooped in her seat. She turned around to meet Irvine's stern face. "You don't seem very happy..."
"Well I must admit I'm better off here than in that cell."
Sei grinned. "So you *are* happy!"
Irvine raised an eyebrow. "I guess you can say that."
Sei's grin became wider and turned back around. "Hang on! We're about to land!"
"Hang on to wha-AAAAAHHHHH!!!" The zoid crashed down, bouncing up and down on the ground, and spinning crazily before sliding into a hangar.
"Aannd... we're here!" Sei jumped out of the cockpit and went to pay for the hangar's usage.
"Ugh... where the hell did that girl learn to pilot..." Irvine crawled out of the zoid- a bit more slower than Sei - and wobbled onto the ground. Once he straightened up, he looked around to marvel at the zoids around him.
Dibisons... Rev Raptors... Gustavs... He paid close attention to the Gustavs, but none of them were a magenta color. Trying to ignore the sinking feeling in his heart, he turned around and inspected some other zoids.
Command Wolves... heh, none could match his Lightning Saix.
"When I'm in better shape I'll come and get ya buddy." he muttered at the thought of his zoid.
A black Genosaurer... it's been a long time since he saw one of those.
Wait...
A GENOSAURER?!!
He stared into its menacing eyes. It glittered a bit in the light, but he was sure it was looking back at him. Other admirers around him were looking at it. He could hear their hushed whispers.
/Do ya see that?! That's a Genosaurer!!
/Aren't those illegal or something?!
/Raven piloted one! A really long time ago!
/I wonder who owns this one....
/Probably a mercenary or somethin! They might be working for the evil people... someone should call in the police!
/The police won't be able to stand up against this baby.
Irvine walked to the direction of who he thought was in charge of the hangar.
"Hey... mr?"
The big man turned around. "Yes? What can I do for you?"
"About that Genosaurer over there- who owns it?"
The guy frowned. "Sorry, the person got a right to remain anonymous. She asked me not to tell anyone too."
Irvine raised an eyebrow. "A she?"
"And a very good friend too! Why, I've known her since she was a bit more than a tyke and she loved running around on that tricycle of he-"
"Irvine! there you are!" Sei ran over and grabbed Irvine's arm. "It's time to go!" she dragged him out, still clinging to him. "I love visiting this city cuz there's so much life around here. We have to go get a place to stay now..."
Irvine looked back, seeing the head of the Genosaurer hovering over all of the other ones. 'I have to find out who the pilot is.' he thought.

Moonbay walked out of the hotel swinging her new keys around her finger. Letting out a happy sigh, she stretched. She hasn't felt so good for a long time- she hasn't felt so *free* for a long time. In a good mood, she started to move with the crowd. Only the thought of Van and the others...
Moonbay frowned. Van. Fiona. Dr. D. They wanted to trap her inside. They wanted to capture her. And now she was wondering who were her real friends. An uneasiness was stretched across her heart, and before she slept, she wanted to tear out her heart so she wouldn't feel it anymore. But it was always there- always ready to torture her. Ready to devour her...
Shaking her head, she stopped in the middle, making the person behind her smack into her and utter a quiet 'sorry'. It wasn't the place to think about it. She needed to relax for a while to calm her mind down. Then maybe she'll find a way to find out where Irvine was... Moonbay started on her way to the hangar where she kept the Genosaurer. Knowing the nosy people around her, they were probably pounding Bob with thousands of questions, demanding answers. Poor Bob.
