Rebel Love
Chapter 9-Just Remember Me
By Kitten Starr
Bit lay on top of his Liger. He looked on endlessly at the blanket of stars, meek flies caught in the gigantic web of darkness. They were so beautiful. He couldn't remember the last time he had stared at the stars like this. He found them relaxing and they took his mind off other things. Everything had piled into his brain and he found them hard to get out. It wasn't everyday you found out you truly loved someone and then have them disappear without a trace without as much a hint to where they were. He had become a maggot that was always sulking around the Hover Cargo and only energized when he was fighting. It had been three months since Leena had up and left.
Bit zipped his jacket up as the chilly desert air hung stiff. If Leena were here maybe, just maybe, she'd be lying here beside him with his arm around her. She'd be gazing up at the sky too. He missed her deeply.
He admitted that she was temperamental sometimes. She was a pistol able to go off at anytime. He had known her long enough though to realize she only fired of blanks. The blank bullets were full of aggression that was only meant to scare the daylights out of you. She had caught him several times.
She was an angel in her own right and he'd argue that defensively until he was blue in the face. It wasn't just her natural beauty, it was her inner strength. He wasn't saying she was perfect; no one is. It was her kindness and her determination to help others. He could see that she cared for others. She would probably even die to save them. That was just her character though. To act tough and mean, but behind that hardcore exterior he could tell she was just an innocent flower bound to bloom into something beauteous. That he was sure of. Someway, somehow, he was going to win her back. Leena Toros would be his like it was meant to be. He could only hope she hadn't forgotten him.
-~*~-
Brad was tinkering with his Command Wolf. He underestimated Leena. He didn't think she'd be gone for this long. What seemed like three years was only three months. How much more could the team withstand? They just weren't a team without Leena. If he knew where she was, he'd bring her back, even if he had to drag her.
Not only had he underestimated Leena, he had really gone off the deep end with Bit. He owed the boy an apology. Even his feelings didn't run as ample as Bit's. Bit really had it bad for the girl. There had been countless nights when Bit had been having dreams, bad ones he presumed. You could hear him moan in his sleep.
Leena just didn't know what power she held over the blonde ditz. Brad thought he was the only one that could see this. It would be nice to have her back though. Even if it meant wasting money on the ammo she used in battle. He'd gladly give up half his paycheck. Okay, may a fourth of his paycheck.
He chuckled to himself, "I don't know where you are Leena, but come back soon. The team is hurting without you and Bit is a knot of misery."
He got up and went off to go to bed. It was late and there was a lot of work to be done tomorrow for an upcoming battle. He needed as much rest as he could get.
-~*~-
Doc lay awake in his bed playing with his toy model Zoids. He didn't let the others know, but he was beginning to get extremely worried about Leena. Where could she be? He could just do the fatherly thing to do and wait patiently until his daughter found all the answers to her questions. It just wasn't like her to go off on her own like that. The thought that it was something he had done had begun to dwindle. She would usually tell him when there was something on her mind.
His little girl was growing up. There was no doubt about that. Night after night he'd just wish she would call. A worried father wasn't a good person to be around. He was grumpy most days and that just wasn't him. He needed to know Leena was okay!
-~*~-
Jamie voiced his opinions openly to the others. They knew that he missed Leena and wondered when she was coming back. What they didn't know was that he had been doing some background research. He had heard of a battered Gun Sniper a few miles from where they were the night Leena left. He wasn't sure it was hers and truthfully, he didn't want it to be hers.
He wanted to see the Zoid for himself and was planning on going to the site. They could do without him for a day or two. When to go was the question. They had three battles this week alone. He didn't know about the following week. He just knew he had to get to the site before it was excavated. He didn't want the Zoid to be Leena's, but deep down he knew it probably was.
-~*~-
After her fight with Naomi Fluegel, Leena had trained nonstop and refused any teams below her own. She was determined to be the strongest and would only battle worthy opponents. She had been so wrapped up sometimes she had forgotten to eat and sleep as well.
One question urged her on though. Who was she? She felt that she would find the answers in the next Royal Cup Tournament. That was three years away though. What would she do until then? She'd train and only hope for the better. -~*~-
Vega missed Leena's midnight talks. He was beginning to think offering her a spot on the team was a bad idea. She had become so distant. He felt as though she was slipping away and not wanting to come back. He wanted to help but didn't know how. He needed to talk to Sarah about it. However, that would have to wait until morning. He was exhausted from the training. He needed rest right now. His thoughts would stay with Leena for tonight though. He was worried about his only friend.
-~*~-
Sarah was awed by the time Leena put into training. She hadn't noticed the lack of sleep and nourishment Leena desperately needed to be pushed to. She was so hell-bent on Leena striving to become more than what she was capable of. Leena was their secret weapon to success.
Sarah had killed two birds with one stone. She had gotten the new recruit the Backdraft Group needed to win and Vega a nice friend to share his lonely thoughts with. She was content with herself. No one was going to change that. No one!
