Hi everyone!!!!! I'm officially a year older!!!!! I'm SO happy!!!!! I know
this won't come out by my birthday but at least it'll come out by my
birthday party, the 25th. I'm sorry the last chapter was so short, but I'll
try to make this one a lot longer. This chappie is dedicated to Sorrowful
for always helping me out when I get writers block (which is pretty often)
and being a good friend. ^_^ I'd also like to thank all my other reviewers
and congratulate CosmosAngel1 and Sweet Dark Angel 009 on their new fic's.
They are both amazing pieces of work. Here's the story! Hope you like it!

Chapter Five Realization
"Acceleration mode now!" He ran through the Dolphin in supernatural speed, looking for Dr. Gilmore. 009 found him in his laboratory, frozen like everything else. He decelerated, and told a rather shocked Dr. Gilmore what he had just seen. The doctor acted at once. 009 put 003 down and Dr. Gilmore examined her.
"Oh, this is worse than I thought. Hmmmm.... It seems that her whole body has suffered immeasurable damage and the circuits in her left leg are malfunctioning. She will have to be treated at once. 009, get the rest of the crew. I'll need some help repairing 003." The rest of the cyborgs were horrified when they heard what happened to their teammate and all were determined to fix her.
"What else should I do?" asked a very anxious 009 when all the other 00 cyborgs had been called.
"Don't worry, 009. 003 is in good hands. You seem a bit traumatized. No wonder, considering what has happened to you during the past few hours. You should get some sleep. No, don't try arguing with me. In your current state, as good as your intentions are, you'll get in the way of the rest of us." Dr. Gilmore said as 009 opened his mouth. He closed it, downhearted even though he knew Dr. Gilmore was right.
He trudged upstairs and sat on his bed, thinking of what happened. Why couldn't he have been there sooner? If he wasn't so absorbed in his own thoughts he could've saved her. Now 003 was in critical condition and it was all his fault. He sat on his bed, still worrying about 003. He shuddered at the sight of 003 unconscious, her limp body and her streaming everywhere. 009 felt a little jolt of pain on his upper back.
'A nice little souvenir from 0020. How thoughtful.' He rubbed his back, remembering what happened this afternoon. He grimaced, and for the first time, felt a little sorry for the victims of 004's missiles, himself being one of them. 009 lay down, and reviewed what had happened during that battle. 0020's mission was to, like all the other cyborgs before him, destroy the renegade cyborgs, meaning 009 and his crew. 0020 had been equipped with armor protecting every part of his body. Everything the other cyborgs did to him was reflected back at them with twice the power. Soon, after everyone was tired out, 004 tried shooting a missile at 0020. Black Ghost had been very detailed with 0020's abilites. Since 0020 was covered head to toe in metal armor, Black Ghost had equipped him with an acceleration mode so 004 couldn't lock on to his target.
Then 003, seeing the situation, and being her caring self, risked her own life by trying to distract 0020 to give 004 enough time to lock on and fire his missile. 0020 though, had different plans. He was too thick to realize that 003 was just trying to distract him and thinking that he was to smart to be outwitted, fired one of his own missiles at her. 009, though previously injured couldn't stand by and watch 003 get shot used his acceleration mode to save her. That heroic act depleted all of his energy and therefore wasn't able to dodge 004's missile that somehow missed 0020 again. He was hit full force in the back and the last thing he saw was 003's horror stricken face.
Luckily for him, Dr. Gilmore had been able to repair him good as new. 009 had overheard 002 telling 004 that 003 had been hysterical when she saw him being hit by 004's missile. 002 had to force 003 to stay in her room and not to run down to the infirmary every five minutes to check on him.
009 felt a little guilty because he had caused 003 so much pain, yet he was happy that 003 cared enough for him to be that worried. He had always thought that 003 was so nice to him because of her kind nature towards everyone but tonight's events caused a little spark of hope flare up inside him. Maybe there was a chance, however slim, that 003 liked him a little more than a brother or a friend.
From when 009 had met her, he had felt that she was special. She had been his source of hope, no matter how desperate the situation might seem. He could be drowning in the depths of his misery but all he had to do was to look into those wonderful, comforting aqua eyes of hers and hear her angelic voice and all his problems would be solved. 009 blushed while thinking these thoughts, knowing that it would be highly improbable that 003 returned his feelings. Yet...there was still a chance.
He had never experienced true love before and never expected to experience it, since he had been turned into a cyborg. At least before he had met 003. She had told him about her life before she had been turned into a cyborg and about her brother, Jean Paul. The tone of her voice when she talked about her brother showed that she still loved him very much and missed him a lot.
009 was very envious of Jean Paul. He wanted 003 to talk about him in that fashion. The more he thought about it, the more angry 009 got at Black Ghost. Who where they, to take perfectly innocent people and ruin their whole lives by turning them into cyborgs? As he was thinking those thoughts, 009 slowly drifted off to sleep.
The next day, 009 was rudely awakened by 007 banging on his bedroom door.
"009! Get up! We haven't got all day! 006 won't let us eat without you so you'd better hurry up! The food is getting cold!"
"Yeah, 009 listen to 007." 002 butted in, clearly impatient. "All of us are hungry and you're being a selfish little brat. Plus, you shouldn't be sleeping in."
"007, 002 calm down." The soft voice of Dr. Gilmore scolded. "009 is very tired from yesterdays battle and needs his sleep. 002, you can't really criticize him for sleeping in. 009 is usually the one who gets up early to help 006 cook breakfast. He should be allowed to oversleep once. How many times have you slept in?"
"Well, he is supposed to be our leader so he should be the responsible one." 002 retorted. 009 grinned. 'I guess I can't even have one day off from being the 'responsible one'.' He groaned as he got out of bed; he still felt the damages done by 004's missile. He dressed as quickly as he could and hobbled out the door. He got out just in time-002 was just about to activate his jets and burst into the room.
"I'm up! Happy now? You don't have to knock the door down!"
"It's about time! Now lets get down to the kitchen and eat! Come on, 007. Let's go spread the good news to the rest of the crew!"
"I'm way ahead of you!" said a joyful 007 as he descended the stairs. 002 raced to catch up, yelling happily to the other cyborgs. 009 shook his head at those two. As soon as they got in reach of some food, they forgot all their other troubles. He followed 002 and went down to the kitchen.
007 and 002 were stuffing their mouths with pancakes loaded with syrup. 009 didn't blame them. 006 hardly made anything else except Chinese dishes so it was natural that 002 missed a traditional American breakfast. 007 liked any kind of food but 009 guessed that he still enjoyed the change. The other cyborgs were eating with more enthusiasm than usual and 006 looked very pleased with himself.
"Come on, 009! Eat something before these pigs gobble it all up!" 006 advised his leader as he watched the other cyborgs devouring the pancakes, amusement in his eyes.
"It's ok 006. I'm not hungry today."
"What!?" exclaimed all the cyborgs, except 002 whose mouth was still stuffed with food.
"Are you crazy? This has got to be the best meal 006 ever made and you're skipping it?" asked an incredulous 004.
"Who cares? If 009 doesn't want any, I'll have his share." said 002 reaching for another plate of pancakes.
"No offence, 006. I'd love to try your meal but I just don't have the appetite today. No hard feeling, ok?" 009 said to an openmouthed 006. "Dr. Gilmore? I'm going to check on 003 now. Could you give me a plate of pancakes for her when she wakes up?"
"Sure, take this and make sure she's alright." Dr. Gilmore handed 009 a plate and he walked up the stairs to the infirmary. When he got up there he opened the door softly and closed it behind him. 003 was lying on the bed, her leg bound up in bandages and in a brace. The wires on the machines were connected to 003's body. He put down the pancakes and got to work. 009 cleaned up the infirmary, throwing away all the excess bandages and opening the windows for some fresh air. He found and extra brace and some clean bandages and bound 003's leg up again. When 009 took off her old brace, he saw the damage done to her leg. Dr. Gilmore had disconnected some of the wires in her leg so the flesh would show. 003 was more human than any of the other cyborgs so she couldn't take as much damage than them. When she did, her defenses crumpled and she would get serious injuries.
After he had put the new brace on, he examined Dr. Gilmore's charts of 003's bone structure. He grimaced. Her knees were fractured badly, some of her smaller bones were splintered and her femur in her left leg was broken in several small pieces. The circuits in her leg were constantly giving out small sparkles of light even though they were disconnected. 009 spotted a file marked "PRIVATE" with Dr. Gilmore's handwriting on it. It was so stuffed with papers that they were coming out of the folder in all sorts of angles. A mischievous glint appeared in his usually reasonable cinnamon eyes. Since Dr. Gilmore had written some files on his own private brainwaves, he thought that it would be fitting that Dr. Gilmore reveal some information to him. He opened the file but was unprepared for what he was about to see.
There were no charts about 009 or any of the male cyborgs. This huge file was all about 003! He expected to see Dr. Gilmore's charts on her brainwaves and sorts but the papers were all x-rays of her injuries. They all looked pretty serious too. 009 just glanced at them, hoping to just get a general idea. All the charts showed that most of the bones were shattered and the circuits disconnected. Dr. Gilmore's notes said that 003 had lost a lot of blood and her blood pressure was dangerously low. He had also written that she was to be given a delicate surgery, which if was preformed with even the slightest mistake or miscalculation, could permanently damage her body or worse, be fatal.
009 saw the other charts of the rest of her body but he didn't check them. This alone was too horrible to bear. If only he had gotten there earlier. Then he could have saved her, at least from the bigger injuries. 009 was filled with anger and hate at himself. His hand clenched into a fist and was just about to punch a nearby desk. He stopped himself just in time. He had forgotten that his strength had multiplied by 100 times when he had been turned into a cyborg. 009 looked over to the angelic face of 003. Her eyes were closed and her hands were folded across her stomach. Her golden hair framed her face perfectly. Even with the wires and oxygen mask she was too perfect to be real. He didn't deserve to be in her presence. His eyes burned with hot tears as he thought about the surgery that had to be preformed and its risks. He couldn't bear the thought that he was going to lose her or if any permanent damage was done to her.
When he was depressed 003 comforted him and made him feel loved. Sometimes, she seemed like the mother that he never had. The Father was like a father to him, but he had never experienced a real mothers love. Even though he liked when she comforted him, he wanted 003 to like him for who he was-not just feel sorry for him. They had been together for a few years and all the cyborgs were like one big family but 009 wanted 003 to like him even more than a brother. He certainly liked her more than a sister. He just wished that he could find the courage to tell her. As he thought about all the things they had experienced together, a teardrop rolled down his cheek and splashed the documents on the table. More tears followed as he completely broke down, sobbing and thinking about life without his angel. She was the highlight of his life, the only person who could make him feel better about himself. It wasn't fair, that some people lived their lives without any disruptions and some people had all the bad luck. He would give anything to make sure that 003 would come out of this surgery alive.
When 009 calmed down and wiped all his tears away, he checked that all the machines that kept 003 alive were working and sat down to restrain himself from another emotional breakdown. Instead, he concentrated on why Dr. Gilmore put the worse charts of 003's x-rays in his own personal private folder and left the others outside in the open. Suddenly comprehension dawned on him. Dr. Gilmore didn't want the rest of the team to be worried. All the team members cared a lot about each other and if they knew the condition 003 was in, they all would be worried sick. 009 pulled a chair next to 003's bed and sat, waiting for her to wake up. He was determined to make sure that she would live through the surgery.
Well? How'd you like it? This took a really long time to write but it's defiantly worth it. I hope this satisfied your thirst for a long chappie. ^_^ Heck, this is even longer than my friend Naomi's homework paper! I don't mean to brag because most of your chapters in your stories are longer than mine, but this is the longest thing I've ever written for fun. My friends think I'm crazy for writing this because we have a lot of homework these days, but wait until I introduce them to all of you! Tell me if you like my attempt at a tiny bit of fluff. I'm horrible, right? * sigh * I'm just too used to having teachers tell me what topics I'm supposed to be writing. I'd better get a lot of reviews for this chapter, because I've really worked hard on it. ^_^ Any of you out there, who is really generous, could you give me a summery on the episode right after the episode in which 0010 makes his first appearance and the episode which is right before Operation Auroras? Sorry if you're really annoyed at me right now, but stupid toonami showed DBZ movies on the Fridays of September so I missed those two episodes. If you are generous enough, could you either put it in your review, or email me? I'm not criticizing any of you who don't give me the summery-you're all really nice, just I have a craving for 009/003 moments right now. All of you who read this, please review.
Sorrowful: I hope I live up to your expectations. You're over complimenting me. * sniffle *. Thanks a lot for all your support. I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
MagicianCyborg: I totally agree with you about Transformers Armanda-it's just a big waste of time. Samurai Jack is so boring because it's just one of those old-fashioned shows in which there is this hero and has to kill some demon. Also, there is practically no music. Heck, there's practically no sound throughout the whole freckin cartoon!!!! Plus, the stupid samurai has to have a lot of help with everything so he really isn't that talented. Now they've replaced it with Justice League again so it doesn't really matter. You really think I'm a good author? Thanks! O^_^O I feel warm and tingly all over!!!!! I love your fic's too. Just I like 003 paired up with 009, not 004. Thanks for reviewing!
Gohan-Chan: Thanks for the birthday wishes!!! ^_^ You should really see those two movies. They're really good. You really think it's a good title? Thanks!!!! I'm never good at making titles. I always type them in last. ^_^ Thanks for reviewing!
PoutingCutie: Ohhhh a new reviewer!!!!! And the review's really long too!!! ^_^ You really like my fic!?!?! Thanks a bunch!!! I'm really not good at fluff so I'm not sure if they'll get together anytime soon. Maybe they'll get together in the next chappie!! Who knows? You're completely right. They should've moved it to Saturday so I could have another excuse to watch T.V on Saturdays ^_^ You did what?!?!?! Whoa, I never thought that would happen to my fic!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I don't deserve your kindness!!! * starts crying * . Thanks for your complements! ^_^ Hope you like this new chapter!!! You're lucky to have a little brother. I don't have any siblings. T_T I really want a little brother or sister!!!!!! I have tons of cousins but not ONE sister or brother!!! Thanks for the review!
Wolfwood11: Sorry, my computer's messed up. It does all sorts of things to my emails. I hope this one didn't have anything wrong. I hope this chappie lived up to your expectations! Thanks for the reviews!
Robowan99: Uhhhh.. thanks for your complements! My friend Naomi had too much sugar one day, and was crazier than usual so you can imagine what happened. Thanks for the reviews!
Serene Faerie: Hey, the U.S.A isn't that bad! I have an account in neopets too!! Could you tell me yours so I can make you my neofriend? I have lots so tell me in your review how many you want me to give you. Thanks for reviewing!
GoldAngel2: Thanks; you don't know how much that means to me!! To be complemented in that fashion from a wonderful writer such as you is really, well, it makes me feel good. Thanks!! I hope this makes up for the other chapters shortness ^_^ If it's not too much trouble, could you give me a summery on the episode in which 009's recovering from 0010's attack? I didn't get to see that episode. I also didn't see the episode called Satans of the Deep Sea (I think that's the title). It's the one before Operation Auroras. As for the dedication, you deserved much better, considering that you gave me those summaries. Thanks for the review!

When 009 calmed down and wiped all his tears away, he checked that all the machines that kept 003 alive were working and sat down to restrain himself from another emotional breakdown. Instead, he concentrated on why Dr. Gilmore put the worse charts of 003's x-rays in his own personal private folder and left the others outside in the open. Suddenly comprehension dawned on him. Dr. Gilmore didn't want the rest of the team to be worried. All the team members cared a lot about each other and if they knew the condition 003 was in, they all would be worried sick. 009 pulled a chair next to 003's bed and sat, waiting for her to wake up. He was determined to make sure that she would live through the surgery.
Well? How'd you like it? This took a really long time to write but it's defiantly worth it. I hope this satisfied your thirst for a long chappie. ^_^ Heck, this is even longer than my friend Naomi's homework paper! I don't mean to brag because most of your chapters in your stories are longer than mine, but this is the longest thing I've ever written for fun. My friends think I'm crazy for writing this because we have a lot of homework these days, but wait until I introduce them to all of you! Tell me if you like my attempt at a tiny bit of fluff. I'm horrible, right? * sigh * I'm just too used to having teachers tell me what topics I'm supposed to be writing. I'd better get a lot of reviews for this chapter, because I've really worked hard on it. ^_^ Any of you out there, who is really generous, could you give me a summery on the episode right after the episode in which 0010 makes his first appearance and the episode which is right before Operation Auroras? Sorry if you're really annoyed at me right now, but stupid toonami showed DBZ movies on the Fridays of September so I missed those two episodes. If you are generous enough, could you either put it in your review, or email me? I'm not criticizing any of you who don't give me the summery-you're all really nice, just I have a craving for 009/003 moments right now. All of you who read this, please review.
Sorrowful: I hope I live up to your expectations. You're over complimenting me. * sniffle *. Thanks a lot for all your support. I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
MagicianCyborg: I totally agree with you about Transformers Armanda-it's just a big waste of time. Samurai Jack is so boring because it's just one of those old-fashioned shows in which there is this hero and has to kill some demon. Also, there is practically no music. Heck, there's practically no sound throughout the whole freckin cartoon!!!! Plus, the stupid samurai has to have a lot of help with everything so he really isn't that talented. Now they've replaced it with Justice League again so it doesn't really matter. You really think I'm a good author? Thanks! O^_^O I feel warm and tingly all over!!!!! I love your fic's too. Just I like 003 paired up with 009, not 004. Thanks for reviewing!
Gohan-Chan: Thanks for the birthday wishes!!! ^_^ You should really see those two movies. They're really good. You really think it's a good title? Thanks!!!! I'm never good at making titles. I always type them in last. ^_^ Thanks for reviewing!
PoutingCutie: Ohhhh a new reviewer!!!!! And the review's really long too!!! ^_^ You really like my fic!?!?! Thanks a bunch!!! I'm really not good at fluff so I'm not sure if they'll get together anytime soon. Maybe they'll get together in the next chappie!! Who knows? You're completely right. They should've moved it to Saturday so I could have another excuse to watch T.V on Saturdays ^_^ You did what?!?!?! Whoa, I never thought that would happen to my fic!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I don't deserve your kindness!!! * starts crying * . Thanks for your complements! ^_^ Hope you like this new chapter!!! You're lucky to have a little brother. I don't have any siblings. T_T I really want a little brother or sister!!!!!! I have tons of cousins but not ONE sister or brother!!! Thanks for the review!
Wolfwood11: Sorry, my computer's messed up. It does all sorts of things to my emails. I hope this one didn't have anything wrong. I hope this chappie lived up to your expectations! Thanks for the reviews!
Robowan99: Uhhhh.. thanks for your complements! My friend Naomi had too much sugar one day, and was crazier than usual so you can imagine what happened. Thanks for the reviews!
Serene Faerie: Hey, the U.S.A isn't that bad! I have an account in neopets too!! Could you tell me yours so I can make you my neofriend? I have lots so tell me in your review how many you want me to give you. Thanks for reviewing!
GoldAngel2: Thanks; you don't know how much that means to me!! To be complemented in that fashion from a wonderful writer such as you is really, well, it makes me feel good. Thanks!! I hope this makes up for the other chapters shortness ^_^ If it's not too much trouble, could you give me a summery on the episode in which 009's recovering from 0010's attack? I didn't get to see that episode. I also didn't see the episode called Satans of the Deep Sea (I think that's the title). It's the one before Operation Auroras. As for the dedication, you deserved much better, considering that you gave me those summaries. Thanks for the review!
