The Letter: Part 3
Gene rushed over to Jim and finally caught up with him. Jim had a look on his face as if he had seen a ghost.
Gene grabbed his arm and said, "Jim what's the matter?"
"You guys are together?!" exclaimed Jim.
Gene sat Jim down on the couch and said, "Listen Jim, I didn't fall in love with Melfina to get you upset. I love her and I mean that."
"Gene you have been in love before and it always ends in tragedy. I don't want you hurting her like you hurt the others. It's just wrong. Melfina doesn't deserve that" Jim replied.
"Jim you have to understand. I really love her. I swear on my father's soul that I really love her. I can't stop thinking about her. She is the one I want to spend the rest of my life with" said Gene.
Jim looked at him for a few moments and said, "You really love her?"
"Yes! For the last time yes!" Gene exclaimed.
Jim laughed and said, "Ok, I believe you. No need to get angry. Go back to her so she doesn't think you abandoned her or anything."
Gene grinned and said, "You better not tell anyone about me and Melfina. It's our little secret for now ok?"
"Yea, don't worry about that. Go back to Melfina already!" Jim yelled.
Gene ran out of the room and looked for Melfina. Finally he went back to his room to find her sitting on his bed, just where he left her. She smiled at him and gestured at him to sit down.
He sat next to her and said, "Sorry about that. I wasn't expecting Jim to barge in like that."
"It's ok. Now what was that thing you wanted to tell me before we were suddenly interrupted" Melfina asked.
"Oh, yea, that thing. Well Melfina, today I received a letter from a woman I used to date and it seems that, well, I have a daughter" Gene said softly. "A daughter?" Melfina asked.
"Yes Mel. I'm a father now and I don't know what to do" Gene exclaimed.
Melfina just stared at him for a few seconds and then said, "Well, I think you should meet her."
"What!?" Gene exclaimed.
"Yes, I really think you should" Melfina replied.
Gene was quiet for a few moments, but then he said, "Well Mel I trust you so I'll do what you say. If you think this is best then I will visit her."
"Good. You should get it over with as soon as possible. You will feel much better, I promise" Melfina said.
"Yea, I guess tomorrow is best. I should start packing then" Gene replied.
Melfina smiled and kissed him on the cheek. She got up and left the room. Gene closed the door and opened the letter. He read the note over and over again. He just couldn't understand that he was a father. Finally he stopped reading and put the note in his pocket. He pulled out a suitcase and began to pack his things for the journey that awaited him.

"HAHAHA soon Gene Starwind will come here to see what he thinks is his daughter and he will fall into my trap. Too bad I had to take his little girlfriend hostage in order to get the pictures I needed for the letter. When Gene leaves to come to California Melfina will be left alone for me to take" said Harry.
"STOP! YOU CAN"T DO THIS TO HIM! GENE IS AN INNOCET MAN!" screamed Starla.
"Shut your mouth Starla. You should have never told me you were once involved with Gene Starwind, then you wouldn't be in this situation" retorted Harry.
"You're a horrible man!" screamed Starla.
"Well to be technical, I'm not a man, I'm an android" said Harry as he began to laugh.
"Please I beg you, leave my daughter alone. She has nothing to do with this. Don't get her involved, please" pleaded Starla.
"Oh but I need her to successfully capture Gene Starwind. Without her, my plan would fail, and you don't want my plan to fail. Trust me" said Harry as he walked over to their cell.
"Isn't that right Lea?" asked Harry.
Lea stared at him for a few seconds and then spit in his face.
Harry stood up and started to laugh.
"What's so funny?" asked Starla.
"Your daughter has some spunk, but if she keeps it up, she won't be able to spit any longer because I will tear her into little tiny pieces" retorted Harry.
"You monster! What do want with Gene anyway?" asked Starla.
Harry grinned at her and said, "Actually, this whole thing has nothing to do with him. I want Melfina all to myself. As long as Gene is out of the way, nothing can stop me. Absolutely nothing can get in my way. I suggest you cooperate. I can get extremely violent at times."
***** (back at Starwind and Hawking) *****
"Well I guess I'm finished with my packing" said Gene.
Gene walked out into the kitchen and called for Gillium. Gillium soon rushed over and met him in the kitchen.
"What is it Gene?" asked Gillium.
"Call me a cab to the airport. I know I told Melfina I would leave tomorrow but I don't want to leave on a sad note. Please just call me a cab" Gene said sadly.
Gillium left the room and called a cab. Gene sat on a chair and put his head down.
"Gene, the cab will be here momentarily" stated Gillium.
"Thanks" Gene replied.
Suddenly Sazuka showed up with Aisha.
"I had to pull her from the mall again" said Sazuka.
"Hey, it wasn't my fault that I wasn't satisfied with my meal" said Aisha.
"Well that gave you no right to transform and beat up the chef either" said Sazuka as she pushed Aisha inside.
"Well he should have known better than to mess with a Catrl-Catrl" said Aisha proudly.
"Oh you and your pride. One of these days it's going to get you killed" said Sazuka.
"Hey what's that supposed to mean?" asked Aisha.
"Please girls. I have a headache as it is" Gene said.
Aisha looked at him and said, "Sorry Gene, but some people don't realize the power of a Catrl-Catrl."
Sazuka poked Aisha and hinted at her to leave the room. After a few moments of critical thinking, Aisha realized what she meant and they both walked away. Gene walked outside and sat down to wait for the cab. A few moments later a cab showed up and Gene placed his things in the trunk. He stepped inside and looked back at Starwind and Hawking.
"I love you Melfina" said Gene to himself.
The cab pulled away and Gene's adventure began.
Gene rushed over to Jim and finally caught up with him. Jim had a look on his face as if he had seen a ghost.
