A/N: Thank you PsYcHoJo for your review and i hope it gets a little less
confusing as it goes on.
Three years later...
A hooded figure walked down the hallway of the stadium, the old base of the Technos. Now the base of the Locos, led by Zoot after he made a reappearance on the day the Technos were defeated.
A lone Loco stood guard at the door of what had been, before the virus, the owner's private box. The Loco straightened up and he gripped his weapon tightly.
"Stop!" he ordered. "No one enters."
The person lowered her hood to reveal and older Ra. "Not even me Axel?" she asked in an angelic voice.
Axel sighed. "Oh, Ra, its you. I thought it might have been..."
"Ebony?" she asked. Axel nodded. Suddenly moans and the sound of bedsprings squeaking filled the silence. Ra looked at Axel. "Does he have a girl in there?" Axel nodded. "Perfect."
Suddenly she opened the door, walked over to the bed and she let out a shocked gasp. "Zoot!" she cried, adapting an American Southern accent. "Darling you promised you wouldn't cheat on me again. Whats going on here?" Zoot stopped what he was doing and he decided to play along.
"Well you know me my love. You know I can't resist a pretty girl."
The girl looked back and forth between them, she started to get up. "Sorry, I didn't know. I'll just leave."
Ra held up a hand. "No don't worry about it. Keep going. I'll just sit in this chair here and watch." Ra sat down and looked at them intently. The girl looked at Ra, and got up and ran out of the room.
Martin leaned over onto his elbow and looked at Ra. "Hi Ra. Time for your monthly visit already, is it?" he asked.
"Hi Martin. No, I just needed to come home. Sometimes those Mall Rats just annoy me and I just need some normality. Is that so unheardof?"
"I think you just love coming home and scaring the daylights out of the girls I'm with."
"Well thats a bonus, I admit." Suddenly Ra grinned. "Come on Martin. You know you love it when I come home."
Martin grinned. "Yeah I do. Life's never boring when you're around."
Ra stood up and half-bowed. "Thank you, thank you. No applause, just send money." She started giggling. Martin laughed.
He opened his arms wide. "Come here brat," he said, still grinning.
Ra crawled into the bed, she pulled the sheet that covered Martin over her body. She kicked her sneakers off and they thumped to the floor. She pulled off her sweatshirt and threw it onto the chair she had been sitting on.
She snuggled up to Martin, she put her head on his shoulder. He put his arms around her and held her close against him. He put his chin on the side of her face and he rested his head on her head. They fell peacefully asleep.
An hour later, Axel barged through the door and he rushed to stand by the bed.
"Zoot," he called softly.
"Shh... Don't wake her," Martin said softly.
"Too late, Axel has the subtlety of a charging bull. What is it?" Ra asked, with her eyes still closed.
"There is a Mall Rat coming, and he looks quite upset," Axel reported.
"Must be Pride," Martin said, "Jay told me he's always in a fit over something or other every other day," he commented dismissivly. Ra giggled.
"He sure is." Martin smiled at her and he hugged her to him once more.
"And what do you think we should do my pet?" he asked.
"Well Pride prides himself on being light and able to move without being heard or seen. Why not let him believe he is succeeding?"
"Brilliant. Let him reach my room unharmed. We'll have a surprise for him." The two on the bed grinned. Axel nodded and left. Martin turned to Ra. "So rape or sex?" he asked, refferring to the act they would play.
"It'll have to be sex, knowing Pride, if it was rape he'd feel the need to intervene. And we really don't want him to see my face. He could recognize me."
"Yes and I need my favorite spy to be there to keep me informed on the Mall Rat's activities." Martin turned to Ra and he ran the back of his hand over her cheek. Over the last three years with Ra by his side, Martin had returned to the sweet boy he had been before the virus. And he couldn't even let Trudy know because that could expose his weaknesses to his enemies. And he longed to see his little girl. Ra told him all she could about Brady and how she was doing. But it still wasn't enough for Martin.
Martin knew he could use Jay to convince Trudy to let him see Brady, but Martin didn't want to intrude on the newlyweds. He smiled at Ra, tracing her lips with his finger. He truly didn't have any idea on how to confess to her how he feels for her.
Martin leaned in and he kissed her softly. They had been sometimes lovers ever since that first night, and regular lovers since his eighteenth birthday. She was better for him than Trudy had been, and even Ebony whom he had cared about greatly. He loved giving her pleasure and he loved how she always thought about him first. He loved her, but he wasn't sure how she felt about him.
Ra moaned softly when she felt Martin kiss her. It had been too long for her since she had been with him. Nearly three months had gone by since they had seen each other for longer than ten minutes. Just long enough to talk but never long enough for anything else. She put her arms around his neck and she kissed him back deeply.
