Hey y'all! Sorry bout the last chapter. It was very short, I know. And the name chart I made didn't work. Oh well. Anyways, on with the show! Oh yea, sorry it took me so long to update. I was suspended for some reason.

"Well, since all of y'all are stuck here 'till the storms over, looks like y'all are gonna spend the night here." Naomi said.

Just then, the lights went out. Violet let out a scream but Jaime quickly stifled it with a kiss.

"What kind of scream was that?" Leon asked.

"A short one." Bit answered.

Just then there was a knock at the door. Naomi got up and answered it.

"Steven?"

"Hey Nom! Glad I found you. What have you been doing lately to keep yourself busy? I know how you hate to be left idle doing nothing."

"Nothing much really. Come inside."

"Thanks." Naomi shut the door behind him.

"Steven!"

"Hey Violet. Heard you scream. Still don't like the dark, eh?"

"Nope. Never have, never will."

Naomi lit some candles so everyone could see.

"Thanks Nom."

"Ya' welcome Viv."

Naomi sat down in her place next to Brad. Steven smiled at this. Naomi glared at him. Steven noticed this and turned his expression mute. Violet noticed the change of expressions and was confused.

"Hey Steven."

"Hey Brad." Steven smiled." Hokatu and Miykaya-Lei back together finally?"

"Yep." "Really?" Violet asked.

"Yep. They are and they're badder then ever." Naomi answered.

"Yay!"

"Calm down. I have something to say about Miykaya-Lei."

"What?"

"Miykaya-Lei said the Ryusha had better stay out of trouble."

"What did she mean 'trouble'?"

"Significant other trouble.'

"Figures."

The others sat there confused.

"I'm confused." Jaime complained.

"I'll tell ya' later." Violet comforted.

"Thanks." Violet sat down next to Jaime and put her head on his shoulder. Leena yawned.

"It's getting late. We should get some sleep." Leena said.

"But I just got here. I'm wide awake" Steven stated.

"I'm also wide awake." Lily added.

"I have an idea. We'll put in a movie and those who are tired can sleep while those who are awake can watch the movie and be quite."

"Good idea Nom." Steven said.

"I'll be back." When she returned she had a movie in hand.

"What ya got there sis?"

"You'll see Viv." Naomi put the movie in. it turned out to be a horror flick.

Violet clung to Jaime's arm when the girl walked past where the assassin was hiding. She let out a small scream when the assassin aimed his gun at the girl. Jaime tried to comfort her.

"It's okay. He won't hurt her."

"You sure?"

"Yeah. I'm sure." Violet started shaking with fear as the assassin cocked his gun and prepared to fire. Jaime wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. Jaime then kissed her head reassuringly. Brad smiled at this. Brad shifted his gaze to Steven. Steven looked angry at the situation with Violet and Jaime.

"You have to let it go Steven. Brad whispered.

"I know. But v\can I trust him not to hurt her. I hardly know him. I don't even know his name."

"His name is Jaime Hemeros. And yes you can trust him not to hurt Viv."

"How can you be so sure?"

"I've known Violet since she was a little girl. I've also known Jaime for quite awhile now. Those two were made for each other. Naomi trusts Jaime so why cant you?"

"I guess I'll have to trust you on this one." They both turned their attention back to the movie. Steven looked to his left and noticed that Lily was shaking. He turned to Bit and saw that he was asleep holding a sleeping Leena in his arms.

"Is it really that scary Lily?" he whispered.

"I'm not scared. I'm cold.

"Oh. Come over here."

"Why?"

"Cause its warmer over here."

"Really?"

"Well yeah. Anyplace is warmer then next to the window."

"True." She got up and sat next to Steven.

Steven felt Lily shivering. He took a good look at her and saw that she had goose bumps on her arms. He couldn't help but feel sorry. He recalled how close she and Bit were growing up. The two were inseparable. She was devastated when he left. She never spoke to anyone. She hardly ate. She couldn't do anything on her own without Bit. Yet here he was, in the same room as her. They hadn't seen each other in years and when they were reunited, he hardly said two words to her. He never spent anytime with her. He had probably spent most of his time with Leena. He had only been here for less then an hour, but he knew what had been happening lately by looking into Lily's eyes. Steven was also feeling left out because Naomi had Brad and Violet had Jaime. He took pity on Lily and wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to keep her warm.

"Thanks." She whispered.

"You're welcome." Soon enough she had fallen asleep.

***********

Steven: Hey everybody. Hope that this long chapter makes up for the short one. If it doesn't, oh well.

Brad: Are the characters allowed to complain?

Steven: I guess. Why?

Chris: There hasn't been a single zoids battle during this whole fic and were almost to the end.

Jack: This fic is almost over?

Chris: Pretty much. All that's left is the ball really.

Jack: Maybe we should ask Licorice to create some zoids battle for us. But when could they fit in?

Steven: Maybe they can be put in right before the ball. Have a zoids tournament and after it ends, have the ball begin.

Brad: Do you think she can fit in a zoids tournament after school and before 9:00?

Chris: Maybe she can start it after school on Monday and have it last everyday thereafter.

Brad: And have the final round on Friday before the ball.

Jack: Let's ask her.

Chris: okay. Let's go! (Jack, Brad and Chris leave to find Licorice)

Steven. Oh well. If you can't beat them join them. Before I go I had better bring this chapter to an end. Anyways, until next time! Much luv, The Juniors^_^!
