Chapter 15:  Miracles

Author's Note:  Sorry about the long wait, but school just started and I'm a freshman at school.  It's hard to keep up with everything.  So there may be some delays in updates.  Well thank you for all the reviews, once again I'm in another writer's block.  I think this is a curse :\  But here's the next chapter!  I hope you like it! 

Oh, in case you wanted to know what Ashley looks like here's I really crappy picture I did at school… http://www.angelfire.com/ct3/crystal0/images/zoids/Finalashley.jpg It's a picture of her hair blowing against the wind.

"LYGER!!!!!!  THIS ISN'T EXACTLY WHAT I CALL PERFECT TIMING!!!!" Bit slammed his fist onto the dashboard, making a small compartment open.

"Huh?  What's this?" (Author's Note:  Isn't it funny how they change their attitudes in a short amount of time ^.^)  He looked inside the little compartment and found a helmet (Author's Note:  Kinda like Thomas' in zoids the chaotic journey) and a pair of gloves with wires attached to them.

"Now this is weird," He put the helmet and gloves on.  He examined the gloves, and then the lights came back on.  He opened his eyes he saw no screen in front of him.  He wasn't sitting in a seat he was standing up.  He tried to look down at his hand but instead he saw the mechanical claw of the Lyger.  He shook it a little bit and the claw mimicked him.

"Woah this is so cool!!!"  He heard the Lyger growled in agreement.  He looked up to the command wolf and Genesis.  They were in the heat of the battle.  Bit smiled mischievously.

"Lyger!!  Let's see what we can do!!"

*******

Leon grunted, "Man, this guy is tough!!!  But I have to make him pay for what he did to Ashley!!!"  Genesis was trying to fight but Streak's command wolf was modified some how.  He heard a roar.

"BIT!!!"  The Lyger is moving again thank God!! Leon thought as he watched the Lyger walked next to him.

'Sorry I'm late, but it was all worth it!'

"Let's hope so."  They both turned their attention to the command wolf.  It simply stood there waiting for them to get the fight started.

'Are you done with your small chat!'

"Let's get this over with!"

'I hear ya!!'

It is what you call a showdown!  The three zoids stared each other down.  No one moved until, the command wolf made a jump for the Lyger, but thanks to human reflexes Lyger dodged it.

'WHAT!!!!  Come back here Bit Cloud!!'  The command wolf swiftly turned around, but it was hit by some missiles on the side.  'What the hell was that!!!'

'Did you forget about me?' Leon chuckled, he steered Genesis next to the Lyger. 'Bit?'

"Yeah?"

'What's up?  When your vid-link comes on…it's blurry.  Are you trying to hide something?'

"Leon, I'll have to tell you later, but I'll tell you this.  It's a miracle happening…"

'Okay…fine.  Let's show this guy not to mess with us!'

"OKAY!!!!"  The two zoids took their fighting stance while the command wolf was struggling to get up.

'YOU HAVEN'T BEATEN ME!!!!!'

'Woah, we just hit a few times and he's all pissed at us.'

"Yeah this is all too easy…"

'EAT THIS!!!!' Some sort of missiles was launched.  Lyger was fast enough to dodge them, but Genesis couldn't.

'ARRRRRGGGG!!!!' Leon struggled with the controls, but Genesis couldn't get up.  The command wolf walked over to it lowered it gun and aimed for the cockpit.

'You die now!!'

CRASH!!!!

'WHAT!!!!'

"You seem to have very short memory.  It's not one on one."  Lyger's claws started to glow.  "NOW TO END THIS!!!"

'YOU WOULDN'T!!!!  YOU CAN'T!!!!!'

"I can and I will!!  This is what you get for hurting my friends and almost killing my best friend!!!  STRIKE LASER CLAW!!!!!!"  Lyger sliced through the top of the command wolf.  The cockpit opened and Streak jumped out before the zoid blew up.  He started running away.

Lyger ran over to the Genesis, "Leon, can you get up?"

'Yeah but I can't do much anymore.'

"Don't worry, he doesn't have a zoid anymore.  What could he do?"

******

Leena watched as an explosion rose up.  She hoped Bit and Leon were all right.  She was also concerned about Ashley.  She got shot for crying out loud!  Leena was afraid that Ashley wouldn't make it.  Her pulse was fading.

"Brad!!  Take Ashley and go to a hospital as fast as you can!"

"What about you?"

"I'll be fine Naomi can help me walk!  Now go!!  I think Ashley won't last much longer."  Brad rushed over to Ashley, but before he picked her up something strange happened….

"….Be careful…..He'll strike you….down……if your not…..careful…."

"Was just me or was Ashley talking to us while she was unconscious?"

Naomi noticed Brad's hesitation, "Brad hurry!!!"  He scooped her up being careful with her, before he left he turned towards Leena and Naomi.

"Be careful.  It 's not over."  The two women nodded and Brad started running in the direction of the jeep.  Naomi helped Leena onto her feet.  Naomi steadied Leena so she could keep off her sprained foot. They heard someone come up from behind them.  They turned to see Streak, covered in sweat.

"You will die!!!!" The girls were in shock and didn't move.  A smirk came on Streaks face, "Wait, I have an even better plan for you two."  He backed behind the boulders but didn't move the aim of his gun.  They couldn't move.

"What should we do?" Leena whispered so that Streak couldn't hear.

"All we can do is wait for Bit and Leon to come back."  So they waited.  They heard something coming towards them, they turned to see the Lyger and Genesis.  They were happy and sad at the same time.  They looked where Streak disappeared wondering what he was planning.

"You guys okay!" Leon jumped out of Genesis, but Bit remained in the Lyger.  Mainly because he didn't no how to get out.  Naomi and Leena nodded slowly, their faces very pale.

"We're just peachy."  Leon knew they were lying, let's just call it a gift of his.

"Don't move!!!"  Streak came out of his hiding place his gun aimed at Leena.  The Lyger made a slight movement.  "If you move I'll pull the trigger!!!"  The Lyger stopped moving.

Bit's voice came from the Lyger, "What do you want?"

"Your Lyger and the Genesis."

"Why?"

"Because the files that your father left you are what your using right now."

"I know."

"Huh?" Streak was in shock.

"I figured when all this happened to me that this is what you wanted."

"I guess it wasn't that hard to figure out."

"It wasn't."

"Now you give it to me or your girlfriend dies!"

"I would love to but I'm stuck."

"Just another excuse!"  he pulled the trigger everyone closed their eyes.

*Click*, *Click*

Everyone opened his or her eyes.  The gun that Streak had was jammed.  Leon took the opportunity and punched him in the stomach.  Streak spit some blood out and went into unconsciousness.

"I'm glad this is all over," Bit said as the Lyger moved closer.

"Yeah, open your cockpit so that we can pile in."

"I would, but I can't."

"Why not?"

"Don't ask me.  Just get on Lyger and we'll go see Doc."

Leon nodded in agreement, "Where's Ashley and Brad?"

Naomi explained, "Brad rushed Ashley to the hospital."

"Okay the first thing I'm going to do is go and see if she's okay."  They tied Streak up hopped on top of the Lyger and walked of in the sunset, Genesis followed.  She looked back at the ruins.

'It's all over,' and with that she continued onward.

Author's Note:  Well that's over!!  YAAAYYY!!  Now I don't have to worry about the fighting scene.  Don't worry, there'll be an epilogue.  Sorry about the long wait and I'll try to make the last chapter good.  Please Review!!!
