" The battle is over...The battle is over...The winner is...The Blitz
team!" The judge said.
" That's right! Now get outta my sight before I get angry!" Bit said.
The remaining Raptors beat it.
" Loser!!" Bit said making a face.
He and Brad returned to the ship. Leena and Jamie were on deck playing a game. The Doc was playing with his models. Ivory was asleep in the lounge.
" Nice job Bit." Jamie said.
" If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous." Leena said.
" At least I have someone to get jealous for!" He said.
" What did you say?!" She said getting in his face.
" You heard me." He said.
" It's too late at night for this. Where's Ivory?" Brad asked.
" She's in the lounge asleep." The Doc said still playing with his models.
" Why does she sleep so much?" He asked.
" Her body is going through the change from injections of vitamins and other stuff, to normal in take." He said.
" What?" He said.
" He said she sleeps so much because she's getting off the injections to eating real food." Jamie said.
" Oh. I knew that." He said.
He went off to the lounge. Ivory was asleep on the couch. He went over and sat down near her.
" Ivory?" He said softly in her ear.
" Mmmm…" She said.
He kissed her lips. They were full and very warm. He was reluctantly to pull away, but he did.
" Brad? What's up?" She asked sitting up.
" Nothing much. I just wanna take you somewhere with Bit and your sister. C'mon. Let's get you ready." He said.
" Uh, okay." She said following him.
Bit had covered his ears to get away from Leena.
" Is Ebony still in her room?" He asked.
" Yes." Jamie said.
Bit ran from Leena and went to see Ebony. She was sitting on her bed looking down.
" Hey Ebony! I won!" He said.
" Huh? Oh, yeah, great." She said.
" What's wrong?" He asked sitting by her on the bed.
" Remember that kid I beat today?" She said.
" Yeah." He said.
" Well, he works for Backdraft. And he's coming her to get me. He wants me to be his queen." She said.
" WHAT?!" He said standing.
" I'm sorry." She said.
He sighed and rubbed his temples.
" It's not your fault. Who is he?" He asked.
" Vega." She said.
" Vega huh? Well, I'm gonna find him and teach him a lesson." He said.
" You won't have to look hard. He's coming here and he's taking me back." She said.
" Oh no he is not! You're staying right here. I'll make sure this Vega kid stays away from you. But until then, I'm taking you out to dinner." He said.
" Wha? Me? Why?" She asked.
" Because I always wanted dinner with a goddess." He said.
She blushed profusly.
" I'm not a goddess." She said.
" What did I say?" He said.
She followed Bit to the deck.
" Hey Leena! Think you could stop yelling long enough to get Ebony ready?" He asked.
" Why should I?!" She asked.
" I'll send Harry a love letter and sign your name." He said.
" Urgh!!! Fine! C'mon Ebony!" She said grabbing her arm.
Ebony was dressed in one of Leena's dresses. She put her brown hair up in chopsticks. She also put her in red make-up. She put her in a red dress that hugged her body and showed off her curves. Heels were foreign to her; Leena showed her how to walk in them.
Then she got Ivory ready. She let her hair down; she put blue make-up on her and she gave her a blue dress. Her's hugged her body and had a split up the side. She had to learn to walk in heels too.
" I feel like a fool." Ebony said.
" You don't look like a fool. You look pretty." Jamie said.
" I look a like a fool." She repeated.
" Be positive Ebony." Leena said.
" Alright. I'm positive I look like a fool!" She said.
She rolled her eyes. Ivory was in the lounge waiting for Ebony so they could walk in together.
" I look like an escort." She said.
Ebony walked in.
" Ebony! You look,"
" I know. I look like a fool. And you! Where are you going Tyra?" She asked.
" Shut up. I feel like you do. Hope the guys like it." She said.
" Somehow I think Bit wouldn't care if I walked in in a brown paper bag." She said.
Bit and Brad walked in. Their jaws hit the floor.
" Ebony."
" Ivory."
They looked at each other.
" What?" They both said.
" You look," Bit started.
" Gorgeous." Brad finished.
They looked at each other again.
" We do?" They said.
" Yes!" They said.
" Oh…thank you." They said.
Bit walked over and looked Ebony up and down walking in a circle. He whistled.
" You look amazing Ebony." He said.
" Thanks." She said.
Brad looked at Ivory.
" Is that you in there Ivory?" He asked.
" I think so. Want me to check?" She asked.
He laughed to himself.
" No, that's okay. Are you ready?" He asked.
" Guess so. Let's go." She said.
They went into town and they had dinner. They had to watch Bit get into another fight with some other guy trying to get Ebony's attention.
" I'd like to see how you say that to my FIST!! While it's in your forehead!!" He yelled.
They all sweatdropped.
" He's all yours Ebony." Brad said.
" Thank you." She muttered.
Afterwards, they sat on a cliff overlooking the battlefield and had a good view of the sunset. Bit had a rather protective arm around Ebony's shoulders.
" He's crazy for that girl." Brad said.
" No kidding. I don't think I've ever seen a human behave in such a manner." Ivory said.
" We're strange like that, us humans. We act on our emotions. They're the strongest things we have. Love, hate and determination being the strongest." He said standing up.
" Really? What do they do?" She asked.
Brad laughed again.
" They don't DO anything. They're what you feel." He said starting to chunk rocks over the cliff.
" Like pain?" She asked.
" Uh, well, pain's not really an emotion." He said.
" You feel pain, do you not?" She asked.
" Well, yeah, but pain is like a sensation, a reaction." He said.
" Well, then, doesn't Bit get a sensation when he's near Ebony? Isn't that a reaction to his feelings for her?" She asked.
Brad was at a loss for words. He simply closed his eyes and shook his head.
" You win. It is an emotion." He said.
" So what does love make you feel Brad?" She asked.
" Are you asking me or asking in general?" He answered.
" Both." She said setting in front of him.
" Uh, well, I've seen love make people do crazy things." He said.
" Like what?" She asked.
" Like, oh, I've heard of people rushing into danger to save the ones they love, lifting cars off them, even giving their live, running blindly into danger for them." He said.
" Like Bit would for Ebony?" She asked.
" I'm not sure what the existent of Bit's love for Ebony would make him do. The boy's not in love, he's totally devoted." He said.
Bit made a face at Brad.
" There should be a law against not loving Ebony!" He said.
She blushed and sweatdropped at the same time.
" There should be a law against you." She muttered.
" What?" He said.
" Nothing Bit." She said shaking her head and smiling.
He settled sitting next to her.
~Alright Bit, time to make that move. Time to tell her.~
" Ebony, do you know how amazingly beautiful you are?" He asked.
Her cheeks flushed. He had been telling her this all night.
" Yes Bit." She said.
" Must'of more beautiful in between." He said.
~ Nice Rico Suave! Will you talk to her like you have an I.Q. higher than that of cornflakes!~
" Listen Ebony, I've known you for only a while, like a year give or take a month or so, but I know I really care about you and you mean a lot to me. I want you to know all that stuff I said in the garage was true. I'd really go off to face Backdraft all by myself if they took you from me." He said facing her.
" Bit…" She said.
" Let me finish, I have to say this. Ebony, I love you. I really do. I always have. You're a beautiful woman and I'd do anything in the world to make you happy." He said.
She was looking at him shocked.
" Say something Ebony, anyth-"
Bit was unable to finish his sentence as Ebony fused her mouth to his. Bit was so shocked he opened his mouth a little wider. Ebony was going completely by what Leena told her. She tasted the warm crevasses of his mouth and ran her hand through his hair. Bit finally came to his senses and held Ebony. He ran his hands up and down the small of her back. Then the ground shook. Ebony was pulled away, as was Ivory. A purple T-Rex ZOID had them both.
" Let me go!! Let me go Godzilla on crack!!" Ebony cried.
" If you don't let me and my sister go, our wolves are gonna pound you into the ground!!!" Ivory cried.
" You're ZOIDs have been taken care of. Now wave goodbye to your boy scouts, you're going home." Vega said through speakers.
" Hey!! What makes you think we're gonna let you take them??!!!" Brad yelled.
" Yeah!!" Bit yelled.
" During the confiscation of their ZOIDs we had a little altercation. It's still going on and your friends are losing. Who's more important? Them or your team?" He said.
Bit and Brad were unable to act. They could hear the battle going on in the distance.
" Bit!! Brad!! Where are you??!!" Leena cried through their walkie-talkie.
" Chikushoo!!!" Bit cried punching the ground.
" So long suckers!" Vega said leaving.
Brad went to Shadow Fox. Bit glared after Vega.
" Ebony…."
" That's right! Now get outta my sight before I get angry!" Bit said.
The remaining Raptors beat it.
" Loser!!" Bit said making a face.
He and Brad returned to the ship. Leena and Jamie were on deck playing a game. The Doc was playing with his models. Ivory was asleep in the lounge.
