Come Back to Me

By:  Crystal of Psyche

Chapter 8:  Surprise

Bit stared at his son's new zoid; he walked up to it and put his hand up to it.  It growled softly at his touch, Bit smiled.  "I'm glad that my son has found a great zoid.  And with you he will become one of the best zoid fighters on the planet."

"Are you talking to that Liger again?"  Ashley said as she walked next to him.

Bit gave her a lopsided grin, "What are you doing up?"  He put an arm around her.

"I'm a light sleeper, plus," she rubbed her stomach, "The baby was keeping me up."

Bit smiled softly and looked back at the Liger, "So do you know what you're going to name it?"

Ashley shook her head, "Nope.  I've been thinking really hard but none of the names I come up with are good enough."

"You'll find the perfect name. Just like me and Leena did when Bevin was born."

"I'm glad you guys came back before the baby was born."

"Me too…now!" He turned to Ashley and put both hands on her shoulder, "YOU have to go to bed!"

"Geez Bit you always have to boss me around," Ashley giggled.  "Well goodnight Bit."

"Night."  Ashley walked out leaving Bit talking with the Shadow Liger.  She went into her room, and hopped in her bed and curled up next to Leon's body.  Who in his sleep hugged her bringing her closer to his body.  She smiled and fell into a soft slumber.

*****

As morning came Bevin's sleepy eyes shot open wide-awake.  He quickly ran through the hallways and into his mother's bedroom.  Inside the room he pounced on the bed making it bounce slightly.

"MOMMY!!!!!!!!!  DADDY!!!!!!!  YOU PROMISED THAT WE COULD GO ON A PICNIC!!!!!"

Leena sat up and rubbed her tired eyes, "Bevin honey, it's way too early."

"What's the use?" Bit said as he also sat up, looking at his ecstatic son.  "It's good to get out early."

"This coming from you!!" Leena said laughing.

"MOMMY!!!!!!!  DADDY!!!!"

"Alright, alright we'll get up," they said in unison.

*****

"Where did Leena, Bit, and Bevin go?" Naomi asked as the rest of the group as they sat down for breakfast.

"They were going to have a picnic," Doc said.

Stars appeared in Ashley's eyes, "They are such an adorable family!!"  Most of the group sweat dropped.

"They'll be alright though, right?" Brad asked.

"Yeah, even though they're pretty far away, they still got Leena's Gun Sniper and the Liger 0," Jamie explained.

"Ah I see."  Suddenly there was a loud explosion sound that made the table shake.

"NAOMI!!!!!!" Ashley shouted.

"RIGHT!!!!!"  Naomi ran out the door.

Brad and Leon looked Ashley, "What's she going to do?"

"We do this all the time," Ashley explained getting up from the chair slowly and walks towards the computer room.  "She and Leena go out and defeat the attackers while the rest of us help them out with the computers and radar and such."

"She's on her own this time!!!" Brad said he ran after Naomi.  Leon was about to go to but turned around to Ashley.

"What's wrong Leon?" she tilted her head to the side curiously.

"I don't want to leave your side…"

"Don't worry Leon!" Jamie shouted as he got from his chair, "I think it's time that the Raynos gets some exercise."

"Thanks Jamie," Leon said calmly.

******

"Ah, this is beautiful," Leena said looking at the oasis they found not too near by.

"Yeah, beautiful," Bit said calmly.  Leena turned her head and noticed that Bit was looking at her.  He leaned in and gave her a kiss on the lips.

"EEEWWWWWWW!!!!!!!" Bevin said pretending to gag.  The two adults laughed and sat down to eat their lunch.

*****

The base shook, "Their attack is much stronger this time!" Doc yelled as he gripped the side of his chair.

"Maybe they know that me, Bit, and Brad came back!" Leon shouted back.

"They're inside the base!!!!" Doc yelled.

"How they do that!?!"

"At this rate they'll be here in ten minutes!!!"  They both looked at each other Ashley had a look of fright on her face.  She felt pain shot through her stomach.

"Oh god!!!" she grabbed her stomach; Leon was by her side in a second.

"What's wrong!?!"

Ashley grunted, "It's coming!!!!"

"Ah man!!!  This is not the best time!!!!!!" Doc said as he tried to get the security system running but for some reason they weren't working.  Leon laid Ashley on the floor as she was taken deep and quick breaths.

"Come on Ashley, that's it breath.  I'm right next to you, remember that."  The room shook again, as Ashley let out a scream.
