Tawanos: I'm soooo sorry that this is late. But my computer nearly
crashed and I lost the chapter I was going to post Friday, then I got a
new, and I think, better idea. When I finished writing the chapter ffnet
wouldn't let me upload, but here it is late, short, but plot advances
tonight.

Chapter 17: A Few Calls
"So? Will you make it?" Doc asked the Vid-phone screen.
"I don't know... can you send me a copy of these plans you claim to have made Jamie?" Layon's voice said.
"Yea sure, give me a moment." Jamie ran his fingers over the keyboard and sent a copy of the plans to Layon. When Layon saw them his eyes became round in awe.
"This... this is incredible. Full and complete parts list, step by step construction." He clicked through the pages until he got to the last one. "Nothing will be able to compare with the pure speed of this zoid. I'll make it."
"We knew you would." Doc said.
"Does this masterpiece have a name?"
"The Peregrine." Layon nodded, it made perfect sense. Layon hung up and immediately got started.
*** With Bit and Leena ***
Bit and Leena walked down the hall towards the door. Just as they passed the Vid-phone it rang. Bit glanced at the ID of the caller and almost fell over. It was the ZBC. Probably a new battle, he thought.
"Just a moment my dear." He clicked the answer button. "Can you call back tomorrow, we were about to." Bit realized who the figure on the screen was. It was the head of the entire ZBC. "Uh... hi grandpa."
"Long time no see Bit." He said. "I need to see you, and your entire team."
"What? Why?"
"Not over the phone, you never know who might be listening in."
"Grandpa, what's going on?"
"Can you get your entire team to ZBC HQ tomorrow around noon?"
"Yea, I guess. But what is going." He didn't get to finish because the man had hung up.
"You didn't tell us that your grandfather was the head of the ZBC." Leena said.
"We had a big falling out after my parents died. We cut off all ties to one another, that's why I became a junk dealer." He put his arm around Leena's shoulder and guided her towards the door. "Come on, we'll worry about it later. Right now all I want is to have dinner with you."
Leena laughed as they headed out into the night.
