When morning came Van was the first to wake up. When he saw that Fiona was
still asleep he could only smile. Van then gave Fiona a small kiss on the
forehead. This caused Fiona to wake up. "Hey Van," said Fiona. "Sorry if I
woke you up," said Van. "Don't worry, I liked the way that you did wake me
up though," said Fiona. Van then kissed Fiona again but this time on the
lips. "It is so good to have you back Van," said Fiona. "It is nice to hear
you say that, Fiona," said Van. "Just don't go anywhere again," said Fiona.
"I will try," said Van. "Thanks," said Fiona as she then kissed Van. "Come
on, I am sure everyone is wondering how you are doing," said Van as he
tried to stand up. "Let them wit for now I just want to be with you," said
Fiona. "Don't worry I will stay with you for as long as you want," said
Van, "But for now lets just go and see the others," said Van. "Ok, fine,"
said Fiona.
"Fiona, it is so good to see that you are ok," said Moonbay. "Thanks Moonbay," said Fiona. "Miss Fiona how are you feeling," asked Thomas? "Fine I guess," said Fiona. Irvine just nodded to Fiona. "Nice to see you too, Irvine," said Fiona. "Mommy," yelled a extremely happy Sakura as she jumped into Fiona's arms. "Hey sweetie," said Fiona. Sakura then started to cry on Fiona's shoulder. "What's wrong," asked Fiona? "I missed you so much," said Sakura. "I missed you a lot too," said Fiona as she gave Sakura a hug. "Yay now I have my whole family," said Sakura in delight. "I guess you do," said Fiona. "Fiona lets go," said Van. "Why," asked Fiona? "I want you to get checked up in case they might have done something to you," said Van. "I guess you are right, after what they did to you," said Fiona.
"So is there anything doctor," asked Van with a bit of worry in his voice? "No everything looks great," said the doctor. "What a relief," said Van. "She should be just fine but after what she has been through she should take it easy for the next couple of days," said the doctor. "I will make sure that she does," said Van. Van then left the room. Irvine who was in the room spoke up after they left. "You are hiding something aren't you," asked Irvine? "Yes I am," said the doctor. "What is it," asked Irvine? "While there may be nothing wrong with miss Fiona, I noticed something about Van when I tested him when he was here a week ago," said the doctor. "What," asked Irvine? "I found a very slow moving poison in his body that we don't have any cure for," said the doctor. "You have got to be kidding," yelled Irvine. "I am afraid not," said the doctor. "It must have been a back-up plan incase Van managed to escape from there control," said Irvine. "If they have the poison they might have the cure but it would be suicide to go in there," said the doctor. "Don't you think he should know," asked Irvine? "I guess but he seems happy right now that I don't want to ruin it by telling him this," said the doctor. "He has the right to know," said Irvine. "I will see if I can find a antidote but at the moment that is really all I can do," said the doctor. "Go ahead," said Irvine. The Irvine left the room. 'While you are doing that I am going to try and get the original antidote,' thought Irvine.
"Hey Van, have you seen Irvine," asked Moonbay? Van who was playing with Sakura at the time looked up and said, "No, Moonbay," said Van. "Why are you looking for him," asked Van? "I needed to talk to him but he has suddenly disappeared," said Moonbay. "Irvine does what he want so it is no surprise, but he will be back," said Van. "I guess you are right," said Moonbay. "I will tell him you were looking for him if I see him," said Van. "Thanks," said Moonbay. "What was that about daddy," asked Sakura? "It's nothing," said Van. "Where's mommy," asked Sakura? "Sleeping, she is still tired from what she went through," said Van. "Actually I am right here Van," said Fiona. "What are you doing up you should be resting," asked Van? "I couldn't sleep," said Fiona. "Plus you said you would stay with me and you weren't there," said Fiona. "You have a point just don't try to over do it," said Van. "I should say the same thing for you," said Fiona. "I am just playing with Sakura," said Van. "I am just saying because I worry about you Van," said Fiona. She then put a hand on Vans shoulder and he seemed to lose balance. "Are you ok, Van," asked Fiona? "I just got dizzy all of a sudden," said Van. "Are you sure you're ok," asked Fiona? "Yeah," said Van. "Fiona, there is something I need to do. Can you watch Sakura," asked Van? "Sure Van," said Fiona. Van started to walk away but stopped. "Is there something else Van," asked Fiona? Suddenly Van just collapsed. "VAN," yelled Fiona as she ran up to him. "What wrong Van," asked Fiona? "Fiona," said Van before he lost consciousness.
"What is going on doctor," asked Fiona who was in tears? "I didn't want to tell you but I noticed a poison in Vans body," said the doctor. "Why didn't you tell him," asked Fiona? "I know I should have but I didn't," said the doctor. "Please help him," asked Fiona? "I will do what I can but I can't find an antidote for it," said the doctor. "If there is anything I could do please tell me," said Fiona. "At the moment there really is nothing I can do," said the doctor.
"I had better go from here without the lightning saix or else I will not get very far before I am spotted," said Irvine. "I better have a look around to see what I am up against," said Irvine. "Now, lets see," he continued as he looked into his eye patch. "Looks like they have a number of zoids on patrol but I should more than easily be able to get by," said Irvine. Irvine then moved down the mountain he was on and carefully snuck around the zoids. "Wait a minute where is the base located," he asked himself. "I guess I will have to do a little hitchhiking," said Irvine as he jumped onto one of the zoids legs. "I hope they don't notice me," said Irvine.
"Hey Van," said Fiona as she came to see him. At the time Van was in serious pain. Fiona eyes filled up with tears. "Van why is this happening to us," cried Fiona? "When we are finally back together something happens and it just ends up keeping us apart," said Fiona. 'When you first died I felt devastated but I moved on but I could never forget you and I caused me a lot of pain. I don't want to lose you again. This time I want you to stay with me, I love you too much to be able to go on without you again," said Fiona. "Fiona don't worry I will manage to stay alive long enough," said manage to say through all the pain he was going through.
"So this is the base," said Irvine when he managed to sneak in. "Now to find someone who can help," said Irvine. "The best place to look is for some kind of scientist," said Irvine. He pulled out a gun to protect himself. "Now I need to find a laboratory," he said. He quietly snuck through the halls and avoided all the guards. "Here we are," said Irvine. Before he went in he listened through the doors to make sure it was clear. When he was sure it was he opened the door and went in. He looked around the room and took a look around and only saw one person. He loaded his gun and walked towards him. "Turn around," said Irvine as he pointed the gun to the mans head. The man turned around. "Dr. D," asked Irvine? "It isn't what you think they are forcing me to work for them but now that you are here you can help me out," said Dr. D in a pleading voice. "Do you know what is wrong with Van," asked Irvine? "The poison you mean," said Dr. D. "Yes, is there an antidote," ask Irvine? "They forced me to create something like that and not have an antidote for it but I came up with one anyways but this place doesn't have the right supplies for me to make it," said Dr. D. "I am taking you with me," said Irvine as he grabbed Dr. D. "Thank you," said Dr. D. "Come on," said Irvine.
"How is he doing today doctor," asked Fiona? "It appears to have gotten worse we need an antidote soon or he might not survive but I can't find anything," said the doctor. "Is there anything you can do," asked Fiona? "I've come up with something that will slow it down but it won't stop it," said the doctor. "Can you please give it to him," asked Fiona? "If that is what he wishes I will do it," said the doctor. "What do you think Van," asked Fiona? "Do it," said Van. "As you wish," said the doctor. "This will mean that your suffering will just last longer," said the doctor. "As long as I stay alive long enough for you to find a cure I will be fine," said Van. "Very well. I will get the it right away," said the doctor. "God this is painful," said Van. "Please just stay alive longer Van," said Fiona. "I will stay alive as long as I can," said Van. "Fiona if I do die though I don't want you to mourn for me like you did last time," said Van. "I don't think that is possible because I love you too much that it will probably hurt worse than ever," said Fiona. "But if I do die," said Van. "Don't say you will die," said Fiona. "Because you won't and I will make sure of it," said Fiona. "I am lucky to have someone like you Fiona," said Van. "Thank you van," said Fiona who gave him a little kiss. "Daddy," said Sakura who walked in. "Yes," asked Van? "I want you to stay to so will be able to have my real daddy," said Sakura. "I intend to stay no matter how painful thing get," said Van.
"Come on old man you are walking too slowly," said Irvine. "I am being cautious," said Dr. D. "Your being cautious is going to get us caught," said Irvine. "Lets go we are almost out of here," said Irvine. "I can finally get out of here after being held captive here for the past few months," said Dr. D. "Here is the hanger," said Irvine. "That is no good I have never been able to get in there because it is the most well guarded," said Dr. D. "Call the guards," commanded Irvine. "What are you crazy," asked Dr. D.? "Just do it," said Irvine. "Fine but don't say I didn't warn you," said Dr. D. "HEY GUARDS HERE IS AN INTRUDER," yelled Dr. D. into the hanger. Needless to say they came over when they heard. "I am going to get you for this Dr. D.," said Irvine. Next things they knew the guards were on the ground because Irvine had knocked them out. "Don't hurt me it was just to get them to leave the hanger," said Dr. D. "Fine but I have a way to make up for it," said Irvine. "What," asked Dr. D. "I am going to use you as a distraction to get out of here," said Irvine. "What, no way," said Dr. D. "All you have to do is get into a zoid and make as much noise as you can while trying to escape," said Irvine. "What about you," asked Dr. D.? "I will get on the backs of one of the other zoids and when they go after you they will take me with them," said Irvine. "Forget it I won't be used as a pawn," said Dr. D.
"Someone help me," yelled Dr. D. as a large number of zoids were chasing after him. 'This is working perfectly now if I can get a little closer to the hill and can get my zoid which I hid on the other side," said Irvine. As soon as they reached it Irvine jumped off the command wolf he was on and ran to the other side of the hill before anyone could notice him. He immediately put it into action and knocked out the zoids following Dr. D. "Took you long enough to help me," said Dr. D. "Be glad I helped you at all," said Irvine. "Lets get back before it is too late," said Irvine. "If my calculations are correct. Since the time it was put in his body, Van won't last unless he gets the antidote tonight. If he gets something to slow the poison down he won't last till tomorrow night" said Dr. D. "Then we had better hurry. How long does it take to make the antidote," asked Irvine? "At least half a day," said Dr. D. "Then we had better hurry," said Irvine.
"Ahhhhhh," yelled Van as the poison started to hurt him badly again. "Please Van you have to hang on," said Fiona. "Fiona please don't go," Van managed to say. "I won't leave Van not until you get better," said Fiona who was in tears. "Please don't cry," said Van. "I can't help it. I am going to lose you if they don't find an antidote soon and I don't think I can bare losing you for a second time," said Fiona. "I will live," said Van. "Old man will you hurry up," yelled Irvine who ran into the room. "I am not a young man anymore I can't run distances like that anymore," said Dr. D. "Dr. D.," asked Van? "Yes and I am here to help you," said Dr. D. "He is the only one who knows the antidote to the poison because he made it. "Not by choice mind you," said Dr. D. "Can you help him," asked Fiona? "Yes I should be able to as long as it is not too late," said Dr. D. "Now if you can get me the supplies I need I will get started," said Dr. D.
Even after Dr. D came back Fiona still didn't leave Vans side. "Van if you can hold on longer Dr. d. can make you an antidote to help you," said Fiona. Van was asleep at the time so he couldn't respond. "Hey Fiona why don't you get some rest," asked Moonbay? "No," said Fiona. "But you have been by his side almost every second since the poison started to hurt him. You really need some rest," said Moonbay. "I will stay with him till he gets better," said Fiona. Fiona then grabbed Vans hand and held onto it telling Moonbay again that she wasn't going to leave.
"Fiona, it is so good to see that you are ok," said Moonbay. "Thanks Moonbay," said Fiona. "Miss Fiona how are you feeling," asked Thomas? "Fine I guess," said Fiona. Irvine just nodded to Fiona. "Nice to see you too, Irvine," said Fiona. "Mommy," yelled a extremely happy Sakura as she jumped into Fiona's arms. "Hey sweetie," said Fiona. Sakura then started to cry on Fiona's shoulder. "What's wrong," asked Fiona? "I missed you so much," said Sakura. "I missed you a lot too," said Fiona as she gave Sakura a hug. "Yay now I have my whole family," said Sakura in delight. "I guess you do," said Fiona. "Fiona lets go," said Van. "Why," asked Fiona? "I want you to get checked up in case they might have done something to you," said Van.
