"Ah, here it is just where my father said it would be," came a voice.
"That means that I have a powerful zoid. With this I will get my revenge and I will also take control of this miserable planet and kill those who would dare to stand against me," said the voice again. There came a cold laugh.
There was a zoid behind the shadowed man and then everything disappeared and was replaced with destruction. There were dead people everywhere including Van Flyheight.
There was a scream and Fiona woke up with a start. She looked around and realized that it was all just a dream.
It had been five years since they had faced and defeated Eric and everything was peaceful.
"Fiona, what is it," asked Van who was woken up by Fiona's scream.
"I had that dream again," replied Fiona.
"Are you feeling ok," asked Van?
"I am feeling fine, but I just wish I knew why I keep having that dream," said Fiona.
"Why don't you try to get back to sleep," said Van.
"Ok I will try," replied Fiona.
*****
Fiona was sitting down looking out a window watching her five-year-old daughter playing with Zeke. "Why do I keep having this dream," Fiona asked Herself. "I hope that it doesn't mean anything," she said to herself again.
"Don't worry about it Fiona," came Van's voice from behind her, "The death saurer and the death stinger were destroyed and I am sure that there couldn't be anything stronger than them," said Van.
"I don't know," said Fiona quietly. At that moment the sound of a baby crying could be heard throughout the house.
"Your turn," said Van.
"Yeah, I know," said Fiona. She got up out of her seat and walked into another room. 'It is peaceful now, and the guardian force isn't needed as much. I am happy. I have a family besides just my sister, this has got to be the best that has ever happened to me,' he thought to himself.
At that moment Fiona came into the room holding a baby boy that was a little less than a year old. Van couldn't help but smile as he watch his wife and their second child. Fiona just looked back at him and smiled. Yes this was the best that ever happened to him.

"Mommy, mommy," yelled Van and Fiona's daughter Nicole as she ran into the room jumping on her mothers lap opposite from her brother Bit.
"Hey sweetie," said Fiona.
"I'm hungry," said Nicole.
"Dinner will be ready soon," said Fiona.
As they all ate dinner Van couldn't help but notice that Fiona was acting weird. "Is that dream still bothering you," asked Van?
"Not as much but the person that is in my dream. I don't know why but he seems very familiar," said Fiona.
"How does he look familiar," asked Van?
"He looks like him," said Fiona since she knew Van would know what she was talking about.
"Sorry I asked," said Van.
"It's ok. I guess that it help a little to tell you," said Fiona.
"What are you talking about mommy," asked Nicole?
"Just something of the past. Nothing to worry about," said Fiona.
"Fiona there is some military business that I will have to deal with soon. So I will have to go for a while," said Van trying to change the subject.
"What is it about," asked Fiona.
"Thomas wasn't specific. He just said that they were having some problem with someone and that they needed my help to solve it," said Van.
"Why you," asked Fiona?
"Don't know. Probably because I am one of the best zoid pilots around," said Van.
"When will you be leaving," asked Fiona.
"Tomorrow," said Van.
*****
When the next day came Van prepared to set of for his destination.
Nicole who was in near tears asked, "How long will you be gone daddy?"
"I don't know but I will come back as soon as possible ok," asked Van?
"Ok," said Nicole giving him a big hug.
"Be a big girl and help your mother out will you," asked Van?
Nicole just shook her head.
"Good," said Van.
"I am sorry that I can't help you Van," said Fiona.
"It's ok. You should stay with the kids anyways. A military base isn't really the best place for them," said Van.
"I know. Please stay safe Van," said Fiona.
"Don't I always," said Van.
"Maybe not always," said Fiona with a laugh. She quickly gave Van a goodbye hug and kiss before he jumped into his blade liger and rode off to his destination.

"What exactly is going on Thomas and why aren't you telling me anything," asked Irvine as him and Thomas walked through the base's halls.
"Let's wait until Van gets here before I tell you two what exactly is going on," said Thomas.
"We both have lives now in case you haven't noticed. So why is it you need both of us for it," asked Irvine?
"It is something of great importance that involves all of us," said Thomas.
"Tell me now," yelled Irvine.
"Are you sure," asked Thomas?
"Yes, now tell me," yelled Irvine.
"Follow me," said Thomas. The two walked into a room with a lot of TV monitors. "Take a look at this," said Thomas as he typed a few things into the computer and an image popped up.
Irvine took one look at it and was speechless. "This has to be some kind of joke," said Irvine when he managed to say something.
"Afraid not," said Thomas. Irvine could only stare.
*****
"Feels good to be back," said Van as he jumped out of the liger as he reached the base.
"Good to see you Van," said Thomas.
"Hey Thomas. So what is it that you wanted," asked Van.
"Irvine is here but he is preoccupied so lets just get to the point. Fiona isn't here is she,' asked Thomas?
"No, why," asked Van?
"This is something that she might not like so it is a good thing that she is not here," said Thomas.
"What's going on," asked Van as they started to walk?
"A few weeks ago someone just showed up and started to attack some of our soldiers," said Thomas.
"Why do you need me though," asked Van?
"This person is doing this because he is after you, me, and Irvine," said Thomas.
"Why," asked Van?
"He has a grudge against us because of something that we did," said Thomas.
They walked into the same room that Thomas and Irvine went into earlier. The first thing that Van noticed was Irvine sitting in a chair. "Hey Irvine," said Van.
"Whatever," said Irvine who had his face in his hands.
"What's up with you," asked Van?
"It happens to do with what Crougar called you here for," said Thomas.
"Tell me already," said Van.
"Look at this," said Thomas as he typed in a few keys and a screen popped up.
When Van saw it he seemed to get too mad that he felt like punching the screen.
"I am sure you remember him," said Thomas.
"What the hell is this about. We killed Eric so why are you showing me this," asked Van?
"He's not the problem," said Thomas, "He is." He typed a few more keys as another pictured showed up. The picture was of a man that had red hair and looked a lot like Eric.
"They look alike," said Van.
"His name is Zack, and the reason is that this man is Eric's son," said Thomas, "He is trying to get us for what we did to his father. We lost track of him a few days ago and we figured that with all of us here that it would become too tempting of a target for him that he would have to show up here," said Thomas.
"Now I see why you needed us, and why you didn't want Fiona to find out," said Van.
"We are trying to set a trap to catch him and that is why we needed you because he is a really good zoids pilot like his father," said Thomas.
"Tell us what we have to do," said Van.
Fiona walked through the market with Bit in her arms and Nicole walking a few feet behind bouncing a ball. "Stay close to me sweetie," said Fiona.
"Ok mommy," said Nicole. She did manage to stay close until the ball bounced out of her reach and she went to go and grab it. By the time that she caught up with it another person already had it.
"Can I please have my ball," asked Nicole?
The man just smirked. "You're the daughter of Van Flyheight aren't you," asked the man?
"Yes. Can I please have my ball," asked Nicole?
"Here you go," said the man giving her the ball, "By the way my name is Zack and I am an old acquaintance of your parents," said the man. "Well I should say that my father was," said Zack.
She was planning on saying thanks you but the next thing that she knew he was gone.
Fiona then came running up to her. "I told you to stay near me," said Fiona.
"I'm sorry mommy but I lost my ball but this man got it for me," said Nicole.
"Don't go wondering off again ok," said Fiona.
"Ok," said Nicole.
"That means that I have a powerful zoid. With this I will get my revenge and I will also take control of this miserable planet and kill those who would dare to stand against me," said the voice again. There came a cold laugh.
