"You are awfully calm father," said Zack noting the calm disposition of
Eric. Eric didn't even bother to try to respond to Zack. "What do you think
is going to happen next?" asked Zack.
This time Eric did respond. "I already know what is going to happen. They are afraid. They know what I am trying to do. So they are trying to hide the children to make sure that I don't get to him. Smart move. Those children will most likely become pests just like their parents but possibly even worse," said Eric with a grin on his face.
"What makes you say that?" asked Zack curiously.
"Fiona is a ancient zoidian with great powers. Van is a great zoid pilot unrivaled by most except for me. Just think about it. If they are to be raised by their parents then they would not only be skilled at piloting zoids but will also be strong in their zoidian powers. Even if the aren't they might still end up being a problem. Right now the question is where they are planning to do this?" said Eric as if it wasn't even a problem.
"We will just have to keep and eye on them to see what they are going to do," said Zack with a smirk.
"No. We are going to stop them before they can do anything. The children can't live," said Eric with an evil laugh.

"Fiona. You know that we can't keep on putting this off," said Van as kindly as he could. He for one would rather that they never had to do this but he knew that if they wanted to let their children live a peaceful life then they would be forced to do this.
Holding her son in her arms, Fiona couldn't help but let a tear fall from her eyes. "I know, but I don't think I can actually do this. We will probably never be able to see them again. I just don't think that I would be able to go through with it," said Fiona as a lot of tears ran down her face.
"I don't like it either. If we could we would go after them but then we would be leaving our friends, and the people that need us here. I just don't think that I could do that. So many people need us," said Van with as much sincerity as he could possibly use.
The tears slowly started to dry from Fiona's eyes. "I guess you are right. I love our children so much though. You and them are the only family I have. I just can't keep losing them," said Fiona sadly.
"I will be here with you. Don't forget about that. They will also be with each other. They will watch out for one another. I know that for a fact," said Van. "Come on. Let's get this over with," said Van reluctantly.
Fiona stood up reluctantly. "You are right," was all that Fiona said.
Suddenly the place started to shake very violently. "Van, Fiona. You need to get out of here as soon as possible," said Rudolph as he ran into the room.
"What's going on? Never mind, stupid question," said Van knowing exactly what was going on.
"My forces are trying to hold him off but he is too good and we won't be able to do it for much longer," said Rudolph.
"Right. Come on Fiona," said Van as the two of them ran out of the place at full speed.
*****
Explosions were occurring all around the family as they raced through the desert as fast as they could. They didn't use the blade liger because they knew that it would be easier for Eric to find them that way.
The running was exhausting and Fiona was running out of strength quickly. She was caring young Bit while Van had Nicole on his back. "Come on Fiona. Don't give up. We are almost there," encouraged Van.
This helped to get Fiona going again. They were almost there when a gunshot was heard. Fiona saw Nicole be shoved off to the side and Van fell right to the ground. "Van! Van!" screamed Fiona.
"Daddy," whispered Nicole seeing her hurt father.
"Go Fiona," said a weak Van.
Fiona got up and looked around but there was no one around. 'Where did the shot come from?' Fiona thought to herself.
"Go Fiona. I will be all right. Just make sure that they are safe," said Van.
Fiona could tell that he was getting weaker. "Right. I promise that I will come back for you. Just stay alive until then," whispered Fiona before giving him a short kiss and then she left with her children.
'Please stay alive Van,' thought Fiona without looking back because she knew that it was only make her hesitate even more.
*****
There she was in the valley of the rarehertz. The resting place of zoids eve. It was her final destination with her children.
Entering a small cave opening Fiona knew it as the place where the gates to zoid eve was located from her last visit here. Taking a knee on the ground Fiona couldn't help but let out more tears. "Nicole. Please take care of your brother will you?" asked Fiona sadly.
"What do you mean mommy. What about you and daddy?" asked Nicole a little confused.
"We are sending you someplace far away and we won't be able to come. So just please promise me that you will protect you brother," said Fiona with so much sadness in her voice.
"I want to stay with you mommy. I want to stay with you and daddy," cried Nicole with tears now rolling down her face.
"I am sorry but you can't," said Fiona.
Fiona closed her eyes and then concentrated. 'Zoid eve. Please take my children far away from here. I want them to be safe. So please grant my request,' thought Fiona as tears fell from her face.
The place gave off a light shine. Fiona looked and saw that her daughter was starting to fade. "No, mommy," yelled Nicole as she ran towards Fiona.
Fiona opened up her arms to embrace her daughter but she just vanished before Fiona's very eyes and before she could even hold her daughter one last time. Fiona couldn't take it anymore and the tears that she had been trying to hold back came pouring out of her. "Please be safe my children," whispered Fiona as the tears flowed freely down her face.
She then got to her feet and ran as quickly as she could out of the place. She just couldn't stand being there. However a whistling sound caught her ears. She looked up and saw a missile was coming right at her. She was too shocked to move and the missile came down with a big explosion.
What she expected to be her death didn't come and Fiona was unsure why. Looking up she saw the blade liger in front of her with its shields up. By the looks of it though it still got hit hard. The blade liger was seriously damaged and soon fell to the ground. The cockpit opened up and Van fell out of it. "Van!" screamed Fiona as she rushed to his side.
"Looks like I made it just in time," said Van weakly.
A sudden laugh then caught their eras. "Very clever. Sending them to a place where I would never be able to find them. It failed however. I will soon be with them as their destroyer," laughed Eric. "You know you could have prevented all of this Fiona by being with me all of those years ago. You refused to though and now it will cost you the lives of your children," laughed Eric.
Zack then walked up behind him.
"Now we have another time and place to go to. So I bid you goodbye lovely Fiona. Live with the thought that your children died because of the foolish decision you made back then," laughed Eric before walking off towards zoid eve.
"No," yelled Fiona.
"We can not let them get our children. So I guess we will have to follow them," said Van trying to sit up.
"Come on Fiona. We have to stop them," said Van once he was on his feet and heading towards the gates of zoid eve.
'Please don't let it be too late once we get there,' thought Van as he weakly walked.
Gaining entrance into the cave was easy. Van and Fiona stood there facing Eric and his son. "Hold it right there," growled Van at the two.
"It is too late Flyheight. I have made it so that after I am gone zoid eve will go into a very long hibernation. You will be dead before it starts back up again. You have made the ultimate failure," smirked Zack as the two of them disappeared.
"Try it Fiona," said Van as he sat against a wall because of the pain that was in his said.
Fiona went into a sort of trance but in the end nothing happened. "No. It is too late," whispered Fiona as tears fell down her face.
*****
"How could we have let this have happened Van?" asked Fiona sadly when they were all alone later.
"We couldn't do anything and it cause us to lose our children and the only hope that they would be safe," said Van quietly and angrily.
Van then wrapped his arms around Fiona and she just started to cry into his chest. They didn't say anything as Van just let Fiona cry and he also felt like crying himself but he knew that he had to be strong.

"Hey come take a look at this," said a man.
"What is it?" asked another one as he walked up. He noticed two children just laying on the ground unconscious. "What are these children doing here?" asked the second man in surprise.
"I don't know. I wonder where their parents are," said the first man.
"We had better take them somewhere for their safekeeping," said the second man as he picked the girl up.
Then the first man picked up the baby. "Who would leave such young children?" asked the first man.
This time Eric did respond. "I already know what is going to happen. They are afraid. They know what I am trying to do. So they are trying to hide the children to make sure that I don't get to him.
