Ok this is my chapter 4! Finally up...I hope you enjoy it. I'm going to dedicate this Chapter to my friend Cory...you'll see why...
"Man he sure does pass out easily." An unknown voice broke the silence in Van's head. "I just walk around the corner, BAM and he's out like a light."
Van groaned and shook his head trying to clear his vision. He looked up to see a tall man leaning over him.
"Hey man let me help you there." He held out his hand and Van took it.
"Thanks." Van mumbled.
"My name is Cory. I guess you're Van." The man said cheerfully. "I'm new here, I was instructed to travel with you."
"Well I just got back from taking my friend to the hospital." Van replied. "So I didn't hear that you'd be coming." He cracked his neck by moving it slightly to the side.
"Oh really, what happened?" Cory asked concerned.
They found their way back to the cafeteria while Van explained what had happened with Fiona. As soon as Cory entered the cafeteria he stopped dead in his tracks. He saw before him the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in all his life.
"Uh...uh this must be Fiona." Cory stuttered.
"Yeah, this is Fiona." Van said. "Fiona meet Cory."
Fiona's eyes widened. She had never seen a man as... nice looking as before in her life. Except Van, but at the moment he didn't count. Cory had dark brown hair, and deep brown eyes.
"Umm...hi Cory." Fiona said.
They stood looking at each other for a minute not knowing what to do. Finally Van interrupted the trance. It seemed as though Fiona was in a sort of trance.
"Okay, well, now you've met. How about I take Cory and show him around the place." Van quickly offered.
"Yeah, Van, do that..." Moonbay grabbed Fiona by the arm and pulled her in her direction.
Moonbay didn't like how Fiona and Cory were looking at each other. She knew something was different about Cory, but she couldn't place it. She didn't want to take a chance, though.
"Come on Cory, let's go." Van urged.
"Alright, Alright." Cory said walking away but not forgetting to turn around and say bye to Fiona.
"Bye, Cory." Fiona waved dreamily and stared after him.
Blade Liger
"...And this how you fix it if something happens." Van was telling Cory how he fixed the Blade Liger in case of an emergency. "Now don't get any ideas, because I'm not gonna let you take this Blade Liger out for a ride, I'm only showing you some things."
"Yeah, I know." Cory patted the leg of the Liger. "This is a nice Zoid."
"It sure is." He rubbed it's other leg. "I love this guy."
Moonbay interrupted them from their work, "Hey, Van, I'm going to take the Gustav out and go into town. I need to get some groceries."
"Alright, see you in a little while." Van said.
Fiona
Fiona couldn't stop thinking about Cory. What was it about him that was so...Oh! What was she doing? She loved Van not Cory, or was it the other way around...
Van
What was happening with Fiona? How could her and Cory be so...close and in such a short amount of time? It wasn't fair! There was something about Cory that really bugged him...but he didn't know what.
Cory
"Fiona, Fiona, Fiona..." Cory said her name aloud over and over again.
Van decided he'd go check in on Fiona. He walked down the hall and stopped right before he got to the door. He heard someone else in the room with Fiona. He peeked around the corner. There were Fiona and Cory, sitting on her bed, chatting away time.
Fiona's room
Fiona had been sitting on her bed when Cory had come in. She was both surprised and happy. He had sat down next to her and they started talking, getting friendlier with each laugh. They had moved closer over the time Cory had been in the room.
"Fiona!" Moonbay's yell could be heard from the cafeteria. She needed Fiona.
Fiona hated to leave Cory all alone, but she didn't have much of a choice.
"Fiona, Fiona, what a beautiful name." Cory whispered to himself, "I think this is the start of a beautiful relationship."
Fiona appeared to be so happy when she was with Cory. It was a happy he'd never seen before.
Van decided he needed a coffee. He walked out of his room and went to the kitchen. Irvine had just made fresh coffee.
"What's your problem?" Irvine handed him a cup of coffee.
Oh...nothing at all, I just saw Fiona the happiest she's ever been." Van said angrily and sarcastically, "Why can't she be that way when she's with me?"
"Who knows? You know how girls can be." He grinned, showing no signs of sympathy.
"Yeah, I know, but why Fiona?" He took a sip of coffee.
Irvine shrugged and left without another word.
Is there something about you, Cory, something you'd like to tell me?
Fiona
He's so mesmerizing…so perfect.
She didn't love Van, it was Cory she wanted. Van was cool, but he was nothing like Cory. He could never make up for Cory. She wanted Cory and only Cory.
Cory
"Perfect. I love it. I love her." He rubbed his hands together. "This is all that I want. I got all that I wanted."
Ok ok I'll update as soon as I can. Hope you like it. RR!
