"I can't believe they did that to you brother," said a man as he walked through the wreckage of a former base that had been destroyed. "Your dream was just so great, and they ruined it for you. I will make sure that they pay," said the man as he walked away.

"He is so small," said a six-year-old Sakura. "Of course he is. He is only a baby," said Fiona giggling slightly. "What's his name?" asked Sakura. "His name is Mathew. He is your little brother," said Van as he put a hand on her shoulder. She smiled brightly at this. "I'm a big sister?" asked Sakura happily. "Yeah," said Van with a big smile on his face. "I am going to be the best big sister ever," said Sakura in an extremely happy tone. "I am sure that you will be," said Fiona laughing at her daughter's happiness. "Now isn't this just precious," came Moonbay's voice from the door. "Auntie Moonbay. I have a brother," said Sakura happily. "Yeah. I know. That is why I am here," said Moonbay as she walked through the door holding a baby of her own. "Hey there," said Irvine as he walked in right after Moonbay. "He looks a lot like Van," said Moonbay as she looked at the baby. "Yes. I know," said Fiona as she admired her son. "What's his name?" asked Moonbay. "It is Mathew," said Van. "Nice name," said Moonbay. "Maybe these two will become friends," said Moonbay as she held her kid. "I have no doubt that they will," said Fiona.

Standing over a hill a man over looked a Republican base that was off in the distance. "You are there. I just know it," he said with a smirk all over his face. "What will you do I wonder once you see my face," said the man making his smirk widen even more. "I guess we will have to see once I turn your life into hell," said the man.

A shock rocked the base. "Not now," groaned Van. "I am sorry Fiona but I will be right back after I take care of this problem," said Van as he quickly kissed Fiona and ran out of the room. "Be careful Van," said Fiona quietly as she saw him run out of the room.

"What's going on?" asked Van running into the control room to see Irvine and Crougar waiting. "Some zoid is attacking us all by itself," said Crougar as he stared at the screen where a picture of a zaber fang stood firing at the base. "What is he stupid? One zoid can't really do too much," said Van as he watched on. "I know that but there could be more ready to ambush us," said Crougar. "We will take care of this," said Irvine as him and Van ran out of the room. "How stupid can this guy be to attack us by himself. He isn't like Raven," said Van as they ran towards the hanger. "I don't know. Something doesn't feel right about this," said Irvine. "I guess," said Van once they reached the hanger.

The blade liger and the lightning saix came out of the base and headed towards the zaber fang. "Irvine. Can you go and scout the area to make sure that there isn't an ambush while I go and take care of this idiot?" asked Van looking at the lightning saix. "Sure thing," said Irvine as he went off in another direction. "Now time for you," said Van as he charged the blade liger forward. "By orders of the guardian force you are to stop this at once," ordered Van upon reaching the zoid. No reply came from the zoid. "Are you listening to me?" asked Van practically yelling at the zoid. There was still no reply that came from the zoid. "So be it," said Van as he whipped out his blades and charge at the zoid and sliced off its legs. "That was way too easy. Irvine is right. Something isn't right here," said Van.

The lightning saix did a circle around the area really fast with its speed. "Hey Van. I have checked everywhere and there is no sign of any other zoids," said Irvine. "Ok. Hey Irvine can you come here?" asked Van over the com-link. "Sure thing," answered Irvine. The lightning saix moved fast and was there in a few seconds. "What is it?" asked Irvine as he looked over the ruined zoid. "It was way too easy to take down," said Van. "I wonder why," said Irvine still looking at the zoid. They walked up to the canopy and tried to look inside. I can't see anything," said Van. "There has to be someone in there," said Irvine as he found the switch to open it up. The canopy opened and what was in there shocked both Van and Irvine.

Everything was quiet and Fiona just sat on the bed holding her son with a sleeping Sakura off to the side. "I wonder what is going on out there," said Fiona since the window in her room didn't show her anything of what was going on outside. She was getting really tired. She was woken up though when the door to her room opened.

"What the hell," said Irvine seeing that the cockpit was completely empty. All that was in there was a computer. "What is going on?" asked Van. "Either someone is trying something new or someone is trying to mess with our minds," said Irvine. "Something still doesn't feel right," said Van with a look of concern on his face. "Who do you think sent this?" asked Irvine looking at Van. "I have absolutely no idea, but we should head back in case something else might happen," said Van. "I agree with you there," said Irvine. The two of them hopped into their zoids and headed back to the base.

"Well what happened out there?" asked Crougar upon seeing the confused looks on both Van and Irvine's faces once they walked back into the control room. "We have absolutely no idea. All we know was that it was being controlled by a computer," said Van as he scratched the back of his head. "That is very strange," said Crougar now taking on the same looks as Irvine and Van. "We will check it out. So you two can just take a break," said Crougar. "Yes sir," said Van with a salute.

'What was that all about? I just don't get it,' Van asked himself as he walked down the halls back towards his family. He walked in front of the door to the room and noticed that it was slightly open. "Huh?" said Van. Suddenly a bad feeling came over him and he quickly pushed open the door the rest of the way. What met him scared him half to death. Fiona was out cold on the floor with a cut over her head. It was the same for Sakura but with merely a bruise. "Fiona, Fiona," yelled Van as he ran to Fiona. She was out cold and wouldn't respond. Van checked her pulse and was glad to see that there was one. "Wait a minute. Where's Mathew?" asked Van. He was nowhere in sight. "Are you looking for him?" came a voice from behind Van. Van quickly turned around and saw a very familiar man standing by a now closed door holding his son. The baby now started to cry. "Who are you? Give me back my son," growled Van as he walked towards the man. "I wouldn't take another step towards me or something might happen," said the man. Van stopped dead in his tracks. "You sent that computer run zoid," said Van. "Yes. I hoped that it would draw you away long enough. You really should check the security here. It was way too easy to get in," said the man with a smirk. "Who are you? What do you want?" growled Van as he stared at the mysterious man. "My name is Zane. All I want is revenge," said Zane. "We have never met before so why would you want revenge?" asked Van. "It is revenge for my brother. I believe you know him. His name is Drake," said Zane. "That psychopath?" asked Van with a look of disbelief on his face. "He was a brilliant man. You however ruined everything that he worked so hard for," said Zane. "He was a psychopath and needed to be stopped," said Van with an angry look on his face. "Maybe to you, but he was a hero to me. I will avenge him by taking dear from you like you took something from me," said Zane pulling out a gun. "No don't," said Van. Instead of firing at the baby he fired it at Van. It was a dart from what Van could tell when it hit him. He was starting to feel really dizzy. "By the time you wake up I will be gone with your son. You will be forced to live with the knowledge that I raised your son, instead of you and his mother," said Zane. "No don't. No, not again," said Van but all went dark as the drugs caught up to him.

Moonbay and Irvine were walking towards the room to see Van and Fiona. "Oh my god," said Moonbay covering her mouth at the sight that was before them when they walked into the room. "What happened?" asked a shocked Irvine. Moonbay went over and shook Van. He very groggily opened his eyes but everything was fuzzy. "Van, what happened?" asked Moonbay nervous of the answer. "He came. He hurt Fiona and Sakura. Then he took my son," said a very weak Van. "Oh no," said Moonbay. "Please. Help Fiona and Sakura. I will be alright," said Van. "Are you sure?" asked Irvine. "Yeah, he merely drugged me to make his escape easier. "Ok we will," said Moonbay.

Fiona's eyes slowly opened. "What happened?" asked Fiona as she looked around. She then touched her bandaged head and winced because of the pain. "You're awake," came the voice of a very sad Van. "Van, what happened?" asked Fiona. He didn't even speak. "Van?" asked Fiona. Suddenly she remembered what happened before she passed out. "Oh no," muttered Fiona as tears fell down her face. Van just remained silent. "Where is Sakura and Mathew?" asked Fiona as she searched rapidly around for them. She was happy to see Sakura right in a bed next to her but she couldn't find her son. "Van, where is Mathew?" asked Fiona in an urgent voice. "H-he's gone," said Van in a very shaky voice. "No. No, this can't be happening," muttered Fiona as more tears fell down her face. "I failed again," said Van quietly. "What?" asked Fiona with a lot of tears falling down her face. "I failed as a father again. First I wasn't there for Sakura when she was born and now Mathew has been taken," said Van as tears started to fall from his face. "I am a failure," said Van. He sat down on the bed next to Fiona and she wrapped her arms around him and cried into his shirt. "Why? Why does this stuff happen to us?" asked Fiona into his shirt. "I don't know," said Van.

"My, aren't you quite the feisty little kid," said Zane as he held the whining baby. "From now on I will be your father. You're name will no longer be Mathew but I will name you after my brother Drake. In order to honor his memory for all that he did. As well as to tell him that I am getting my revenge for him for what those people did to him. I am sure that he would have been very proud of me to know of what I did in his memory. Don't you think so Drake?" asked Zane to the squirming baby. The baby whined a little more. "I am glad to see that you agree with me," said Zane with a smirk.
