This is my first, so I really need your reviews and feedback....It really means a lot to me. I hope you'll enjoy.
Chapter One.
"Out of my way, out of my way!" Shouted a boy as he rushes to Nirvana's bridge. "He has to be here, he has to be here." These few words of concern running through the boy's head as he opens the door to the bridge. "I'm sorry, Takeru, never mind if I know your dad is just taking a tour on his vanguard." said B.C who is sitting in the seat of what used to belong to the late Boss. It been 16 years since the battle against the red paeksis, Nirvana is now a place where men and women come together to make a better world for humans to live and the boy you just is the first in three generations, to be born naturally, he, Takeru Tokai, a 15 year old, is the son of Hibiki Tokai and Dita. But now it seems that Hibiki has gone missing for 12 days after he was sent on a solo mission to scout the magnetic storm which was suspected of radiating strange waves of energy. His life is in danger, but the love of a son, wife and friends might now be the only hope left for him. "Is he..., never mind." "I'm sorry mom don't worry, dad told us that he'll return safely, right? I'm sure he'll to his word, he always does." Said Takeru as he goes to his mother's side to comfort her. "You're right, Takeru-kun. I shouldn't worry too much." Said Dita as she stood up." Okay, I'm going to check my patients now, so why don't you have your breakfast at the canteen?" "Okay," As Takeru made his way to the canteen, he heard his name called. "Matte yo (wait up), Takeru-san!" said a girl, who had long beautiful brown hair. "Kahlua-san?" Takeru spoke to himself as he turned back, as he saw her beautiful face. "Your mom didn't make breakfast for you today did she?" "She was called up so..." Kahlua brought her head up close. "Daijobudaiyo(are u alright), Takeru-san? You don't look okay... Your dad hasn't returned, huh?" "Humph. Nandemonai (it's nothing). You don't need to worry. I'm sure he'll return soon." said Takeru as he puts on a smile. "I know." Said Kahlua as she grabbed Takeru's hand. "I'll make you breakfast!" "But I was just on my way... oh well."
Moments later.....
"You don't have to go through all this ... *sniff *sniff*." said Takeru as his attention was drawn to the aroma coming from the kitchen. "On the other hand." he changed to a whisper. "You said something?" said Kahlua as she served Takeru her special dish. "Itadakimas!" But just as he was about to begin, he realized Kahlua was staring at him. "Kahlua, are you okay?" Kahlua suddenly snapped out of her dream and sat up straight showing a slight blush on her cheeks. "Er.... Nothing." "Humph." Soon after, he ate his meal almost instantly. "Arigatou. I enjoyed breakfast."
"Before... you leave, there's something I need to tell you...." said Kahlua as her blush became more obvious. "Yeah." "I.... I...." Suddenly, Barnette appeared. "Takeru, your mom!" *Tap* *Tap* *Tap*, the sounds of Takeru's feet as he dashed to Nirvana's ward. "Darn it, how could she faint? I hope she's okay, now when dad's not around." "MOM!" "It's okay now, she'll do fine." said Duero. "She just fainted for awhile, but we also got other news." said Pai as she helped Dita stand. "You're pregnant Dita. Kroak! Kroak!" "I thought so. Before Hibiki left, we, you know...." replied Dita with a smile and a slight blush. "So is it going to be a boy or a girl?" "Can't tell yet, it's too early to tell yet. I guess this is why having a baby naturally is more interesting than conventional growths of humans. You'll never know what might happen." Suddenly Takeru's face changed. He narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists. Seconds later he dashed off. "Takeru-san?" Said Pai with a puzzled look. Not long after, Takeru was at the bridge and slammed his hands in front of B.C's desk. "We need to get my dad NOW!" "Humph. I see you have the same flare as your dad. Anyway, you know we can't leave the..." "Bull shit! Mum's gonna have a baby, I'm gonna be an elder brother to someone, and dad needs to be here to see his child!" B.C stood up with a stricker face. "Never shout at me with that word again, especially when your status in this ship is very low." "Hmph...." as Takeru's face turned away. "I understand how you feel, but you must understand that we have a responsibility. But since you asked so nicely, I'll discuss with both Meger and Talark about Hibiki's current situation." "I'll try to control it next time." As Takeru left the bridge. "Can't believe I just did that. Huh... What was I thinking?" "Takeru." a voice called him. "Oh, Leader. Let me guess, you wanna give me a lecture." "Takeru, I know your father. I'm sure he would have done the same thing if he was in your shoes. So don't blame yourself, blame your dad's Genes." "Thanks, Meia. You've really done a lot for me, not to mention you were my babysitter since I was young." Said Takeru as he bowed his head with a thin smile.
The following morning.....
"Wake up, Takeru. Wake up!" "Kahlua? What's the ... What are you doing in my room?!" Takeru instantly jumped out of his bed. "It's not like I hade any intentions or whatever." She took a step backwards, embarrassed. "I mean my mom has great news. She got news from boss that Meger and Talark has agreed for Nirvana to search for your dad!" "How 'bout the passengers on board?" "Merger and Talark have decided that they want to see the results of 16 on board Nirvana. "Thanks a lot, Kahlua." Said Takeru as he gave a hug to her. "Err... You okay Kahlua? You... look a little pink. Kahlua? Anyway, I'm going to see Misty in the radar room. Wanna follow?"
Kahlua started to nod her head as she tried to hide the blush on her face.
+--At the radar room...
"Good morning Takeru and.... Kahlua? You okay?" Misty asked.
"She's been like that since just now. She came to my room then...."
"Never mind Takeru. I think I catch what you're trying to say." With those words, Kahlua gripped her cheeks with her hands.
"Stop blushing!!!" Kahlua told herself as she shook her head hoping that the blush would go away.
"I think you're taking this the wrong way. Anyway, I wanted to know 'bout the last location where dad was spotted by satellites" Takeru said.
"Well, it's hard to say. For one thing, it's a magnetic storm, and well Hibiki's tracer is very hard to receive from such a distance."
"If so, then how come the same satellites pick up something from the storm? Could it be...?"
"Well let's hope it doesn't come to that."
"Leader," said Takeru.
"One-sama," said Misty.
"Well need backup as Hibiki isn't here to unite with any of us. This means we're going to need you and Kahlua's help in our present mission. Even though you're both young, both of you poses the good qualities of your parents, Takeru your parents and Kahlua your homme. So, I'll be seeing both of you at the simulator room after breakfast today, understood?" said Meia
"Understood" replied Hibiki
"Kahlua?"
"Huh...oh, yeah I'll be there" replied Kahlua whose hair is already a bit messed up due to her aggressive head shaking.
"Then I suggest both of you have your breakfast now, the faster you finish, the earlier we can start" after those last words from Meia, both of them rushed out to have their breakfast.
"There should be more of those kinds of teenagers nowadays, wouldn't you agree?" Misty said as she stood up from her chair.
"Hm, by the way Misty do me a favor and ask Duero and Parfet to go down to the simulator room later on during the simulation for those two new recruits,"
"Sure thing, I'll get them later, why don't we have breakfast together?"
"Sounds like a good idea" said Meia as she puts up a smile.
+-- At the simulation room later that afternoon.
"I should've known it'll turn out like this," said Duero as he looked through Takeru and Kahlua's simulation data during the simulation.
"Both of them have strong blood in them, not to mention their attitude towards the current situation. Just look at their current status, its really outstanding for even a rookie," said Parfet who is overlooking Duero's shoulder to look at the screen.
"Parfet did Boss tell you how long till our departure?" asked Meia as she looked away from the two new recruits who seem to be in complete concentration of the simulation.
"She said it'll take about a week to get everyone except the crew of the Nirvana , once everything is settled we're cleared to leave Merger and Talark air space,"
"Duero, are they ready to pilot the real thing?"
"I can't tell for sure but I'll get a report for you by the end of the week"
"Make an extra copy for Parfet,"
"I see, you want me to modify their machines before we leave right?"
"Yes, and if whatever's in there could hurt or even touch Hibiki, it might be tough, so we'll need to get the best out of everyone," said Meia as she drew back her attention to the recruits which were going through the last obstacle.
"Hmm... interesting" said Duero as he rubbed his chin while examing the Takeru and Kahluas physical status
"What is it Duero?" asked Meia.
"Hmm... nothing, I can't jump to conclusions just yet"
"When you say it in that tone it means it must be important. I know you, it's you're habit" said Parfet.
"You do don't you,' replied Duero as he lost his attention from the computer.
"I feel..."said Takeru. "...so tired" continued Kahlua almost simultaneously.
The concentration was then focused to the Takeru and Kahlua who had just completed their Simulation with almost perfect results.
"I didn't know..." "... That it was this tough"
"Err... do you two realize that both of you are finishing off each others sentences?" questioned Parfet.
"We..." "...are?"
Takeru and Kahlua gave out a sigh as both of them sat on the floor to rest. Duero suddenly brought up a smirk on his face.
"Duero-san, that look on you face must mean you have something interesting on your mind. Come on tell me" said Parfet.
"Well if you want to know so badly, why don't we discuss it over dinner?"
"Sure, just don't be late," replied Parfet with a big smile and thumbs up.
As Duero and Parfet had their private conversation, Meia took a blanket to comfort Takeru and Kahlua who were already half asleep against the wall.
"You two might be the only hope to help this old crew find Hibiki"Meia whispered to herself as she tucked Takeru and Kahlua who were leaning on each other sleeping soundly. "Humph..."
The communicator in the room suddenly came to life. It was B.C.
"Meia, are you there?" B.c asked.
"Yeah," Meia replied.
"Meia, I need you to check with Gascogne about our supplies, we need to stock up before we leave, cause we might not know how long are we going to be out there looking for Hibiki, and Meia, how are our new recruits doing?,"
"If they keep up this pace they might be able to pilot the Dread and Vanguard before we depart. Both of them are really doing very well"
"That's very good, I'm sure if Okashira was here she'll be glad to here that as I am,"
+--That night at a restaurant.
"The funny thing is, 16 years ago, eating here in Merger with a woman, might have seen like a torture than pleasure," said Duero as he began cutting his just served steak.
"Likewise, only that no matter what, women's food are better than man's food. Anyway what was it about the kids during the simulation this afternoon? "Replied Parfet as she sipped a little of her wine.
"Kahlua is the first child to be born on Nirvana. Takeru is the first naturally born child to be born on Nirvana, not to mention after 3 generations too,"
"...and?" parfet now looking puzzled.
"During the simulation I realized that their heartbeats were almost synchronized, not just that, after the simulation, they were finishing each others sentences. This brought me to a conclusion that ..." said Duero as he put down his utensils for a while.
"If Takeru were to pilot a vanguard similar to that of Hibiki's, and if Kahlua were to pilot a dread similar to any of the three, they might be able to unite." said Parfet as she sat back with a smile.
"But even so, it's impossible to acquire a machine like those, we must remember that it was Paeksis's doing, nothing of human doing could make or even create such a machine. Not just that after the creation of these machines, accompanied by the Nirvana, we ended up light years away from home,"
"*Sigh* It'll be very interesting if new machines like that were created *sigh*"
"Parfet, I was thinking, after diner, maybe you could show me around merger, I've never seen merger before,"
"Sure thing, I'd be honored to give you a tour,"
+--4 days later...
Its' been 4 days since Takeru and Kahlua has been under the supervision of Meia, they're now able to pilot their respective machines.
"We'll I now that you've got permission from Boss, we'll begin your first run in a training session with the whole crew," said Meia with a smile on her face, happy to see that Takeru and Kahlua in their current situation.
"Yeh! Did you hear that Takeru-san? Takeru-san?"Said Kahlua with full excitment.
"Humph... I guess... their times to show what were made of,"said Takeru, his words full of vigor.
"Huh..." Kahlua now startled due to Takeru's sudden vibe of pride.
"Oh, sorry for startling you Kahlua, I guess that was too much," Takeru apologized as he scratches his head.
"Isn't it nice to see Pyoro 2 and Pyoro 3 so happy together" said a digital voice.
"*WHACK* I...am...not, Pyoro 3!" said Takeru, as he screwed his fist onto Pyoro "The next time you'll find yourself in the junkyard instead of the repair shop"
"Welcome back Pyoro, nice to see you're up and running again" said Meia.
"He's not the only one who has come back you know," said a familiar voice.
"Jura-san!"Said Kahlua as she went ahead and gave her a welcome hug.
"So have you told him yet?" whispered Jura.
"Err..." said Kahlua as she started to blush.
"Told who what?" said Takeru as he tried to hold Pyoro down.
"That's none of your business," replied Jura, sticking her nose up.
"Welcome back, Jura. I just hope you're still able to pilot dread," said Meia.
"How do you think I got here? Oh yeah by the way, where are the two new recruits? I hope their very handsome, cause I've been waiting to have baby, you know,"
"Humph... You're looking at the 2 new recruits Jura. They'll also be joining us in our first practice run in 16 years."
"Huh? What? Well, I haven't much to say but congratulations you 2."
"I think all of you should get ready. The training will be in 8 hours time."
"Roger!" replied the two rookies.
"We'll be expecting a new run since Hibiki's not around, right?"
"Yeah, but it shouldn't be a problem. We're pirates after all.
+-- 4 days later...
"Misty have you got the figure as to how many crew members are available?" asked B.C.
"Well, all together is 130, most of the crew members already have families of their own. Even though our pilots has decreased by by almost 10% including Dita whose pregnant, but Meia, Jura, Barnette and Gascogne are still available and also plus the two new recruits Takeru and Hikari. Duero and Pai are still in the Infirmary and Parfet is still in the engine room with a full squad of engineers," said Misty as she went through the computer with Q-Chan nodding his head at after every sentence.
Well, it's a good figure, okay. We'll leave Meger and Talark's airspace in an hour," said B.C announcing from the bridge.
"Make it 30 minutes, Boss, Paeksis is looking stronger than usual,"
"30 minutes then, Ezra announce our departure time to the crew, we're getting Hibiki back,"
"Roger!" replied Ezra as she eagerly her announcement.
"Hibiki, just hold on. Wherever you are, we will find you," whispered B.C to herself.

Moments later.....
"You don't have to go through all this ... *sniff *sniff*." said Takeru as his attention was drawn to the aroma coming from the kitchen. "On the other hand." he changed to a whisper. "You said something?" said Kahlua as she served Takeru her special dish. "Itadakimas!" But just as he was about to begin, he realized Kahlua was staring at him. "Kahlua, are you okay?" Kahlua suddenly snapped out of her dream and sat up straight showing a slight blush on her cheeks. "Er.... Nothing." "Humph." Soon after, he ate his meal almost instantly. "Arigatou.

"Takeru, your mom!" *Tap* *Tap* *Tap*, the sounds of Takeru's feet as he dashed to Nirvana's ward. "Darn it, how could she faint? I hope she's okay, now when dad's not around." "MOM!" "It's okay now, she'll do fine." said Duero. "She just fainted for awhile, but we also got other news." said Pai as she helped Dita stand. "You're pregnant Dita. Kroak! Kroak!" "I thought so.

"Well, it's hard to say. For one thing, it's a magnetic storm, and well Hibiki's tracer is very hard to receive from such a distance."
"If so, then how come the same satellites pick up something from the storm? Could it be...?"
"Well let's hope it doesn't come to that."

"Hmm... interesting" said Duero as he rubbed his chin while examing the Takeru and Kahluas physical status
"What is it Duero?" asked Meia.
"Hmm... nothing, I can't jump to conclusions just yet"
"When you say it in that tone it means it must be important. I know you, it's you're habit" said Parfet.

The communicator in the room suddenly came to life. It was B.C.
"Meia, are you there?" B.c asked.
"Yeah," Meia replied.
"Meia, I need you to check with Gascogne about our supplies, we need to stock up before we leave, cause we might not know how long are we going to be out there looking for Hibiki, and Meia, how are our new recruits doing?,"
"If they keep up this pace they might be able to pilot the Dread and Vanguard before we depart. Both of them are really doing very well"
"That's very good, I'm sure if Okashira was here she'll be glad to here that as I am,"

"The funny thing is, 16 years ago, eating here in Merger with a woman, might have seen like a torture than pleasure," said Duero as he began cutting his just served steak.
"Likewise, only that no matter what, women's food are better than man's food. Anyway what was it about the kids during the simulation this afternoon? "Replied Parfet as she sipped a little of her wine.

"Humph... I guess... their times to show what were made of,"said Takeru, his words full of vigor.
"Huh..." Kahlua now startled due to Takeru's sudden vibe of pride.
"Oh, sorry for startling you Kahlua, I guess that was too much," Takeru apologized as he scratches his head.
"Isn't it nice to see Pyoro 2 and Pyoro 3 so happy together" said a digital voice.
"*WHACK* I...am...not, Pyoro 3!" said Takeru, as he screwed his fist onto Pyoro "The next time you'll find yourself in the junkyard instead of the repair shop"
"Welcome back Pyoro, nice to see you're up and running again" said Meia.
"He's not the only one who has come back you know," said a familiar voice.
"Jura-san!"Said Kahlua as she went ahead and gave her a welcome hug.
"So have you told him yet?" whispered Jura.
"Err..." said Kahlua as she started to blush.
"Told who what?" said Takeru as he tried to hold Pyoro down.
"That's none of your business," replied Jura, sticking her nose up.
"Welcome back, Jura. I just hope you're still able to pilot dread," said Meia.
"How do you think I got here? Oh yeah by the way, where are the two new recruits? I hope their very handsome, cause I've been waiting to have baby, you know,"
"Humph... You're looking at the 2 new recruits Jura. They'll also be joining us in our first practice run in 16 years."
"Huh? What? Well, I haven't much to say but congratulations you 2."
"I think all of you should get ready. The training will be in 8 hours time."
"Roger!" replied the two rookies.
"We'll be expecting a new run since Hibiki's not around, right?"
"Yeah, but it shouldn't be a problem. We're pirates after all.
+-- 4 days later...
"Misty have you got the figure as to how many crew members are available?" asked B.C.
"Well, all together is 130, most of the crew members already have families of their own. Even though our pilots has decreased by by almost 10% including Dita whose pregnant, but Meia, Jura, Barnette and Gascogne are still available and also plus the two new recruits Takeru and Hikari. Duero and Pai are still in the Infirmary and Parfet is still in the engine room with a full squad of engineers," said Misty as she went through the computer with Q-Chan nodding his head at after every sentence.
Well, it's a good figure, okay. We'll leave Meger and Talark's airspace in an hour," said B.C announcing from the bridge.
"Make it 30 minutes, Boss, Paeksis is looking stronger than usual,"
"30 minutes then, Ezra announce our departure time to the crew, we're getting Hibiki back,"
"Roger!" replied Ezra as she eagerly her announcement.
"Hibiki, just hold on. Wherever you are, we will find you," whispered B.C to herself.
