Unexpected love

Raven
Chapter 1: Rain's return, the new member.
The story begins after Van had defeated the Death Saurer for the first time and everyone was living a peaceful life. Van and Fiona had just met Lt. Shuebaltz and were starting to become good friends with him. Van had gone out one day to find Irvine. His only excuse to do it was that he missed him. He left Thomas, Fiona, and MoonBay alone for three full days.
"God. I wonder where he is right now." MoonBay boasted from the kitchen. "It's been three days and he still hasn't come back."
"He'll be back soon MoonBay." Fiona reassured her. "Do you miss him?"
"Oh give me a break Fiona." She replied hastily. "An eighteen year old boy is going out to find a twenty year old man that I think he has a crush on. What do you think?"
"I don't think so, that's just creepy." A voice said from behind. "I think that Irvine is in love with my brother."
"Karl!" MoonBay screamed. "Give me a break Thomas. I think Karl likes Hermann."
"Hey guys!" Someone hollered from behind them. "How's everyone doing on this fine evening?"
"Van!" Fiona screamed running up to him and wrapping her arms around his neck than punching him in the stomach. "You dumb ass! You had us all worried sick. So, did you find Irvine?"
"That hurt." Van cried out. "Yes I did. But I found a cute little bounty hunter with him that I think you'll know. (Yes people. I'm bringing back Rain, Willow, and the helldiver once again. What can I say, she's one of my own favorite characters. But this time she isn't a zoidian, she a bounty hunter and she runs to hide from an older brother that's looking for her.) Hey Thomas. Meet Rain Akita."
"RAIN!" Both MoonBay and Fiona shouted. "Where have you been, you left a while ago and never came back?" Fiona cried out. "Where did you go?"
"Whoa guys." Rain said backing up. "I was collecting some bounty heads to earn up some money to get new parts for my helldiver."
"MoonBay." Irvine chimed in. "You can let her go now, don't I get a hi?"
"What are you talking about Irvine?" She said smoothly with a sly smile. "What have you done to get my appreciation?"
"Well I uh…" He stuttered. "I.. Well I…"
"I guess." Rain chimed in to help him out. "I guess all that money he earned means nothing to you now does it MoonBay?" She said with a smirk. The pretty silver head was having so much fun teasing MoonBay that she didn't notice Thomas staring at her. She finally looked up from MoonBay's stunned face to see Thomas standing there about to fall over. "Umm? Is he ok? She asked quickly.
"Oh Thomas?" Fiona asked. "Yeah, he'll be fine. Just say hi to him and he'll snap out of it. I'll show you." She said walking up to his face. "Hi Thomas."
"Huh?" He said snapping up realizing she was talking to him. "Oh hello Ms. Fiona. Good to see you again."
"You have money?" MoonBay finally said as she recovered from her shock. "Who did you weasel it out of this time?"
"Weasel?" Van asked. "Irvine didn't weasel anything out of anybody."
"Yeah right Van." MoonBay boasted. "You never see Irvine doing anything that didn't include a pocket full of money and some tricking. He had to weasel someone to get money."
"Not really." Irvine spoke up. "Me and Rain have been earning money by catching some desert thieves and turning them in. But I'm surprised were not in the cell with those dirt bags."
"WE would be." Rain intervened. "If Van hadn't found us and got us the hell outta there, our asses would be sitting in a cell right now. We have bounties on our heads to yah know."
"You had a bounty on your head Rain." He choked out. "You were the one who stole that gustav. And than they find me with you and I get in trouble."
"What can I say." She said shrugging him off. "I have a cute face that can attract attention."
"More like guns and cops." Van piped in. "You almost got yourself killed yesterday."
"Hey MoonBay." Fiona said from behind her. "We have to go. Dr. D wanted us to go shopping for him remember?"
"Oh old man." She hissed. "He always ruins good fun." She turned around and slapped both Irvine and Van in the back of their heads. "You two behave while were gone. Got that?"
"Yeah sure." Irvine chuckled at her distorted face. "Come on MoonBay, we just got back. We'll behave all right?"
"Yeah right." She said as she grabbed Fiona's hand and dragged her out to the gustav. "Rain, you watch them." They got in the zoid and drove off.
"What's her problem?" Van said. "I thought she'd be happy to see us. Hey Rain? Rain? Hey, where'd she go?" He heard a growl form behind him. "Oh Zeke. Come on, let's go find her."
Rain had run off to find Dr. D so she could show off her zoid and see if he could fix up some parts on it. "Hey Dr. D." She hollered as the old the old man was working on some parts. "Hey gramps. Can you hear me?"
"I can hear you perfectly MoonBay." He answered. "What do you want now?"
"MoonBay?" The silver headed girl said. "I'm not MoonBay. Gramps turn around."
"What do you want MoonBay?" He said finally turning around. "I thought I told you earlier that I… You're not MoonBay!"
"Of course not." She said as she giggled at the old man. "I thought you'd be happy to see me."
"Well Ms. Rain Siena Akita." He said shocked. "I thought you left us for good a few months back. You and Irvine."
"Ok Gramps." She said angrily. "I told you to never use my full name unless I was in real trouble."
"Fine than." He laughed out as she snarled at him. ""So what are you doing here? Come back to stay?"
"I came to join the Guardian Force old man." She finally said. "The reason I left was to train. I think I'm ready to try again. I think General (complete dumb ass) Frame will let me try my last test this time."
"General Frame isn't with us anymore." Dr. D said happily. "He left when Hermann came back to authority because he wouldn't let women join."
"He's finally gone." She screamed with joy. "That would mean…"
"That you are already a part of the GF Rain." Hermann spoke up from behind her. She turned around to face him with a stunned look on her face. "What?"
"I haven't taken my test sir." She said quickly. "How can I be apart of the GF if I haven't passed my training?"
"You fought the death saurer with Van did you not?" Someone said from behind Hermann. When he stepped out Rain almost fell over. It was Karl. "You've been fighting with the GF for about two years now. Which makes you a member. Does it not?"
"Karl?" She said with shock. "Your still here? I surely thought you would have gotten promoted and left."
"No." He replied. "I got promoted but I wasn't about to leave with Raven still around."
"Raven?!" She said angrily. "The stupid jerk is still alive?"
"Wrrargh." Came a growl from behind her. When she turned around she fell flat on her ass with a scream when Willow and Zeke pushed her over with their growling laughs.
"That wasn't funny you two." She said getting up to dust herself off. "You two are so childish." She ran up and wrapped her arms around them and pulled them down and sat on top of them. "Got Yah!"
The organoids squirmed a bit before actually kicking her off with a loud roar. "Served you two right scaring the girl like that." Irvine said with a laugh. "It's about time we found you Rain. Why'd you run off in such a hurry?"
"I came to ask if gramps would take a look at my zoid and to see if I could still try to join the guardian force." She replied laughing. "Looks like I'm already in. But Gramps? Will you look at my helldiver?"
"Sure." He said with a smile. "Get me some coffee and I'll meet you there. Which hanger?"
"Number twelve." She replied walking over to the coffeepot. "A lot of sugar, right gramps?"
"SALT!" He screamed. "I like SALT!"
"Damn. Down doc." She said with a smile. "It was a joke."
"Whatever." He said stalking off. "I'll meet you at the hanger."
