Later that day Fiona and her daughter went to get some food. "Mommy I am
going to play with Zeke but I promise I will stay in his sight," said
Sakura. "Ok but please be careful I don't want you getting hurt," said
Fiona. "Come on Zeke," said Sakura. Zeke followed after her. It was then
that she saw the man that saved her. "Zeke can you please wait right here,"
she asked nicely. Zeke growled his disapproval. "Don't worry you will see
where I will be," said Sakura. Zeke reluctantly agreed and Sakura walked
over to the man. "Hi," said Sakura. "Thanks for saving me," she said. "No
problem," he said. "What is your name," asked Sakura? "I don't know," he
said. "Why are you all by yourself," she asked? "I have no one to go to,"
he said. "What about your parents," she asked? "I don't know who they are,"
said the man. "In a way I know how you feel because I don't know who my dad
is, but you have it worse because you don't know either of them," said
Sakura. "Why are you talking to me like that, aren't you afraid I might
hurt you," asked the man. "I don't know why but I feel safe with you," said
Sakura. "Really," said the man? "I have an idea why don't I be your friend
so that way you won't be by yourself," asked Sakura? "Thanks, I guess,"
said the man. "You seem pretty wise for someone your age," said the man.
"Thank you," said Sakura. "Hey why don't you come meet my mommy, I am sure
she would like you," said Sakura. "I don't know," said the man. "Please,"
she asked. "Ok," said the man reluctantly.
Zeke was starting to get a bit impatient and didn't want to wait much longer. "Come one Zeke," he heard Sakura call him. He looked up from his resting place on the ground and looked up to see Sakura walking towards him with another person behind her. It took him a while to register what he was seeing but he rushed over to the man and started to nuzzle him. "Zeke! Stop it," yelled Sakura. Zeke then stopped. "Sorry about him he has never acted this way before," she said. "It's ok," he said. "What is wrong with you Zeke," she whispered to Zeke. Zeke growled never taking his eyes off the man.
"Can you wait here," asked Sakura as they approached Fiona? "Ok," said the man. Sakura ran ahead and went to Fiona's side. "Mommy I want you to meet someone," said Sakura innocently. "Who," asked Fiona? "It was the man that saved my life," said Sakura. "Where is he," asked Fiona? "Follow me," said Sakura. Fiona followed after her. "So where is he," asked Fiona? "Close your eyes," said Sakura. "Why," asked Fiona? "Please," asked Sakura? "Fine," said Fiona. Sakura took her hand and lead her to him. "Ok mom open your eyes," said Sakura. Fiona opened her eyes and saw the man. The first thing she did was dropped her bag of food then she spoke. "How can this be," she said before she passed out. "Is she ok," asked the man? "Please help her," said Sakura. "Where is your place I will carry her there but then I will leave," he said.
"Tell me have you tracked down the experiment yet," asked a man. "Yes sir we have and it has led us to a small town," said a scientist. "The experiment isn't done and needs to be completed," said the man. "General are you going to send troops to get him," asked the scientist. "Yes, then we can come back after all those losses with forces that are stronger than ever," said the general.
Fiona finally woke up and sat up really quickly. "Mommy are you ok," asked Sakura? "How can it be," Fiona asked? "What," asked Sakura? "Sweetie when Zeke saw the man did he start acting weird," asked Fiona? "Yes he did," said Sakura. "I don't believe it," said Fiona with a large smile. "Mommy what's wring," asked Sakura? "Nothing," said Fiona. 'Could it have been Van,' Fiona asked Herself?
(Ring, Ring) the phone in Moonbay's room was ringing while Moonbay was sleeping. "We just got back and someone already wants me," said Moonbay. "Hello," Moonbay asked sleepily? "Moonbay you need to get down here quickly," came Fiona's voice. "What's up? You sound excited about something," said Moonbay. "I will tell you when you get down here," said Fiona. And she hung up the phone. "What was that about," Moonbay asked herself?
Moonbay waited till the next morning till she started to head back to the village. "Where are you going, Moonbay," asked Irvine? 'Fiona called me last night. She said there was something important she needed to tell me," said Moonbay. "Why didn't she just tell you on the phone," asked Irvine? "I don't know but she sounded really excited about it," said Moonbay. "How excited," asked Irvine? "Really excited, You would think that Van came back," said Moonbay. The both laughed at the thought of this. "Tell me when you get back," said Irvine as he walked off.
"Now which way was it," Moonbay asked herself as she was looking at the map. "Lets see this is where I am at," she said as she pointed at a map. "Now where did the man say that village was, oh yeah it was right here," said Moonbay. "So I just go north," said Moonbay, as the gustav kept moving in the direction it was going in.
"Now the village should be right over this hill," said Moonbay as the gustav approached the village. What she saw frightened her. "What happened," she said as she saw the burning remains of the village. "Oh no," said Moonbay. She quickly moved the gustav into the village. "Fiona, Fiona where are you," she yelled. "This can't have happened," said Moonbay. "Who could do something like this, destroy an entire town and its inhabitants," said Moonbay with tears in her eyes.
"Hey Moonbay what is it that Fiona wanted," asked Irvine when Moonbay got back to the base. "I couldn't talk to her," said Moonbay. "Why," asked Irvine? "The entire town was destroyed," said Moonbay. "WHAT," yelled Irvine? Moonbay couldn't hold it anymore and broke out tears. "Fiona is gone, and so is the rest of the town," said Moonbay. "You had better tell someone they might be able to do something," said Irvine.
"We already knew about it," said Crougar. "The rebels sent us a message and told us about it," he said. "But didn't we beat them," asked Moonbay? "We must have merely stalled them," said Crougar. "We recently sent a scout to look over the area for any survivors but the rebels said that they made sure there was none," said Crougar. "How heartless does a person have to be to do that," asked Thomas? "We have to do something," said Moonbay. "We have done everything we could right now," said Crougar.
"I still don't believe it Fiona is gone," said Moonbay. "I know what you mean," said Irvine. "What is it that Fiona wanted to tell me, I have been thinking about that a lot too. Since she seemed like she was still miserable when we were there but she called me and she seemed happy," said Moonbay. Just then Thomas ran by. "Where are you going in a hurry," asked Irvine? "There has been an unidentified object heading towards this base. I have been sent to check it out," said Thomas.
"Now where did the location say it was? I think they said it was about ten miles out," said Thomas. "I think I see it. It doesn't look big enough to be a zoid so what could it be," asked Thomas? He took a closer look at the object. "Wait a minute that's Fiona, Zeke, and her daughter," said Thomas as the dibison headed towards them. "Miss Fiona," said Thomas. "Is that you Thomas," said Fiona before she passed out. Thomas looked at her and noticed that she had a lot of bruises all over her body. He picked her up and looked at Zeke who was carrying Sakura on his back and she was sleeping. "Lets get them back Zeke," said Thomas.
"Hey Thomas did you see what it was," asked Irvine as Thomas came in? Thomas didn't answer. Instead he said, "Someone get a doctor," he yelled. "What's going on," asked Moonbay? Thomas jumped out of the dibison carrying Fiona. "Fiona," yelled Moonbay as she ran up to them. "Where Zeke and Sakura," asked Irvine. At that moment Zeke came running into the base with Sakura still on his back. "They need to get some help, especially Miss Fiona," said Thomas.
"Huh? Where am I," asked Sakura. "Good I see you have woken up," said a doctor. "Where am I and where is my mommy," asked Sakura? "You are at a military base right now. Your mom is here too. She is hurt a bit but she will be alright," said the doctor. "Where is she," asked Sakura? "Follow me and I will take you to her," said the doctor. The doctor took her to her Fiona. "Mommy," said Sakura as she ran to her mom. "Hey sweetie," said Fiona. "How are you feeling," asked Fiona? "I am fine," Sakura said. "That is good," said Fiona. "Hey you two," said Moonbay as she walked into the room. "Hey Moonbay," said Fiona. "Hello," said Sakura. "Listen sweetie I need to talk to Moonbay can you please play with Zeke," asked Fiona? "Ok," said Sakura. "If you ask nicely I think Irvine and Thomas might play with you," said Moonbay. "Ok," said Sakura. She then walked out with Zeke who had come in with Moonbay. "Are you ok, Fiona," asked Moonbay. "Listen I saw something that you aren't going to believe," said Fiona. "What is it," asked Moonbay. "I called you and wanted you to come to that town for a reason. I saw something that not even I could believe," said Fiona. "What did you see," asked Moonbay. "You may think I am a little crazy but I saw Van," said Fiona. "But Van is dead," said Moonbay. "That is what I thought. You know that man that saved Sakura," asked Fiona? "Yeah," said Moonbay. "Well she took me to meet him and I saw Van," said Fiona. "How do you know it was him," asked Moonbay? "I thought I might have imagined it at first, but Sakura said that Zeke acted strangely when he saw him," said Fiona. "Zeke thought it was him too so that might mean that he is Van," said Moonbay. "Maybe,' said Fiona. "That would mean that Van is alive but why hasn't he tried to contact any of us," asked Moonbay. "I don't know but maybe Sakura can help," said Fiona. "I have a question," said Fiona. "What is it," asked Moonbay? "What ever happened to Rachael," asked Fiona? "She was transferred to another base about two years ago but I don't mind because I never really liked her," said Moonbay. "Good to know," said Fiona with a slight laugh.
Zeke was starting to get a bit impatient and didn't want to wait much longer. "Come one Zeke," he heard Sakura call him. He looked up from his resting place on the ground and looked up to see Sakura walking towards him with another person behind her.
