(?) "Hey papa? What's aunt Mikan doing today?"
(?) "You don't need to worry about that Sana. She's just getting some stuff prepared at the house."
(Sana) "Then, what about Kana and mama?
(?) "Hmm. I think they went out by themselves."
She puffed her cheeks up.
(Sana) "No fair."
The father patted Sana's head.
(?) "Now now Sana. They wanted to have some time together while I was with you."
Sana smiled.
(Sana) "I was just joking papa. I don't mind spending my time with you!"
(?) "Hahaha. Well anyways, let's find mama and Kana, alright?"
(Sana) "Okay!"
Sana and her father went to where the mother was.
(?) "Hey Momo!"
(Momo) "Oh, hello Rito and Sana. How are you two doing?"
(Sana) "We're doing fine Mama. We went around and shopped together!"
Momo made a pouty face.
(Momo) "Oh? That makes me a little jealous."
(Sana) "Hahaha, you're funny mama!"
(Rito) "Well, I'm just glad we're all having a good time...shoot! I forgot something. Can you three hold on?"
They all nodded their heads.
Rito went back to the market to get something he forgot.
(Rito) "There we go. Now I need to go back."
Some dark gray clouds started to come in, and it started to rain.
(Rito) "Crap! I need to get back to them fast!"
(?) "Hahahaha, I finally got a hold of Momo and that shitheads children too."
(Rito) "What the hell?!"
A spaceship hovered in the sky.
(?) "Well well well, look who's here, though you're too late...hehe.
(Rito) "Hey! What did you do to my family?!"
(?) "Oh them? I just knocked them out and put them on my ship."
(Rito) "WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU BASTARD?! THEY DID NOTHING TO YOU!"
(?) "Eh, who cares. Now, goodbye idiot."
Rito tried jumping up to the ship, only to land face first on a barrier. He started to shake.
(Rito) "NOOOOO! KANA! SANA! MOMO!"
Rito then woke up with a violent reaction, breathing very heavily, hands over his heart. He tried calming down but couldn't.
The dream seemed very real and disturbing for him.
(Rito) 'W-what the heck? Momo and two girls...get kidnapped? ...Wait?! Two girls?! Will that happen if I don't train?! Is this why Gid wanted me to get stronger?! ...N-now I see what I need to do. I need to become stronger to protect my family!'
Rito was now feeling a bit better as now he had the goal to become someone who could protect instead of being protected.
Seventh day
Rito woke up with more motivation than ever.
(Gid) "Hmm? Why are you so excited?"
(Rito) "Now I know why you're having me do this and all I can say is, thank you."
(Gid) "Tch. It's not for you dumbass."
(Rito) "Umm...okay?"
(Gid) "Hmph. Anyways, Zastin should be here any moment to keep an eye on you. You got that?!"
(Rito) "Yes."
(Gid) "Today you're going to do a little bit of everything so get prepared!"
Rito nodded his head.
.
.
.
(Zastin) "I'm here your majesty. I shall keep an eye on him just like you asked."
(Gid) "Then, I will take my leave."
Gid got on his ship and left.
(Zastin) "Rito, it's time for you to start your routine."
(Rito) "Yes!"
Rito ran from where Zastin's ship was to the plains again.
.
.
.
(Rito) "That was 10 seconds better than my previous record."
(Zastin) "Well Rito, the king said that you need to be lightning fast in about a year...maybe less.
(Rito) "How am I going to move that fast?"
(Zastin) "You probably don't know this, but that diamond in your pocket can remove your limiter for a specific amount of time, though there is a limit to how strong one can get with it.
(Rito) "Ahh, I see...wait how strong can I get?"
(Zastin) "The king said that I can't tell you, so we'll have to see."
(Rito) "*Sigh* Okay."
.
.
.
(Rito) "Whew. Will I always be tired?"
(Zastin) "You will be tired until you get used to doing this all of the time."
(Rito) "Haah...I thought so. How many months am I going to be doing this?"
(Zastin) "Hmm, I would say for about five more months, then you're going to be switching up your routine to something else."
(Rito) "Ahh, I see..."
(Zastin) "Anyways, you better rest up for tomorrow."
(Rito) "Umm before that, who all knows about Momo?"
(Zastin) "Erm, only me, the king and queen, as well as you and Mikado."
(Rito) "How does Dr. Mikado know?"
(Zastin) "Apparently, she was testing Princess Momo for any kind of sickness, and she found out that the princess was pregnant with your children."
Rito had a little blush on his face.
(Rito) "I-I see. How long will it be before anyone else knows?"
(Zastin) "Hmm, I think it will be about three and a half years."
(Rito) "That long?! How is it going to be kept a secret for that long?!"
(Zastin) "The king and queen plan on keeping your children for that long until they're ready."
(Rito) "Umm...can I see them at any point?"
(Zastin) "Of course! Rito, why would you not want to see your own children?!"
(Rito) "Umm...no that's not it. It's just that I don't know if I would be worthy of them…"
Zastin put both of his hands on Rito's shoulders.
(Zastin) "Rito, why would anyone think that you're unworthy of seeing your children?! At that point, you would be abandoning them!"
(Rito) 'Wait, what am I saying? The reason I got so much motivation to do this was because of that dream. Uhh...I feel really dumb now.' "I see Zastin, thank you. I don't know why I was saying that."
(Zastin) "No problem, just remember who you're doing this for."
After that conversation Rito would never be the wimp he once was.
.
.
.
It has been three months since Momo found out she's pregnant. At this stage, anyone could tell. Her belly now looked like it had gotten pretty inflated. She rubbed her belly with a smile on her face.
(Momo) 'Jeez, everyone's been staring at me. Is there something on my face? Hehe~, just kidding. I know it's you two.'
It seems she couldn't wait to meet them.
She sighed.
(Momo) "Though, I still don't know how I'm going to tell Rito about you kids..."
Momo went inside the castle.
(Sephie) "Oh hello Momo. Are you okay?
(Momo) "Yes. I was just thinking about these two."
(Sephie) "I see. Are they kicking yet?"
(Momo) "Umm, yes. Do you want to feel?"
(Sephie) "Yes! I would love to!"
Sephie rubbed Momo's belly.
(Sephie) "Oh, I think I felt one kick. Hello you two."
She felt more kicks.
(Sephie) "Jeez, I really want to meet them, but so does your father. Even though it seems like he doesn't care too much, he very much does."
(Momo) "Oh, is that really true mother?"
(Sephie) "Absolutely. He just doesn't want to say that because he'll get embarrassed. Also, do you know what clothes you're going to get for those two?"
(Momo) "Well..."
.
.
.
(Gid) "Hey Zastin?"
(Zastin) "Yes your highness?"
(Gid) "How's the boy doing?"
(Zastin) "He's progressing at a faster pace than we expected."
(Gid) "Hoh? I wonder why?"
(Zastin) "Hmm, if I had to guess then I would say it's for his family and upcoming daughters."
(Gid) "Tell him that when I come back over there, there's going to be even more hell waiting for him."
Zastin laughed a little nervously.
(Zastin) "Will do my king."
(Gid) "Good. He needs to know his place."
Gid shut the monitor off.
.
.
.
(Momo) "Mother?"
(Sephie) "Yes?"
(Momo) "Do you know what Rito is doing?"
(Sephie) "*Sigh* Your father is doing something with him."
(Momo) "Is he being mean?!"
(Sephie) "Well…"
Just then, Gid came out of a room.
(Gid) "Now that's finished."
(Momo) "F-father...what are you doing to Rito?!"
(Gid) "He's just getting trained."
(Momo) "So you're being mean to him?!"
Momo started to tear up.
(Gid) "...No."
(Momo) "*Sniff* You're…*Sniff*."
Momo then started crying.
(Momo) "You're so mean! Why...why are you being mean to him when he's such a nice person?!"
(Gid) "Uhhh?"
(Momo) "Answer me!"
Gid scratched his head while tears rolled down Momo's face.
(Gid) "I'm not being mean to him."
(Momo) "Liar!"
(Gid) "Sephie, can you help me out?"
Momo looked at Sephie.
(Momo) "S-so you're going to defend him mother *Sniff*?"
Sephie smiled and patted Momo's head.
(Sephie) "No. Actually, he has been mean to Rito."
(Momo) "He has?!"
(Sephie) "Yes. I had Zastin tell me all about it."
Momo's eyes were covered with her hair.
(Momo) "F-father…"
(Gid) "?"
(Momo) "*Sniff* YOU ASSHOLE!"
(Sephie) 'Oh my!'
(Momo) "WHY ARE YOU BEING MEAN TO HIM YOU GODDAMN JERK?!"
She ran off while sobbing, holding her belly.
(Gid) "..."
(Sephie) "Uh-oh. Well, I'm going to see where Momo went and talk to her."
Gid just had his mouth open in disbelief. It looks like he did in fact get chewed out like Mikado thought he would.
.
.
.
Momo was curled up in a ball in a corner, sobbing.
(Sephie) "Momo! Where are you?!"
(Momo) "..."
Sephie looked and saw Momo.
(Sephie) "Why are you crying?"
(Momo) "..."
(Sephie) "Is it because you think that Rito will hate you?"
(Momo) "*Sniff*...I-I…"
(Sephie) "?"
(Momo) "R-ruined his l-life...*Sniff*"
(Sephie) "..."
(Momo) "A-and now, because of m-me...he's...s-suffering *Sniff*"
(Sephie) "Momo, he's not suffering. In fact, he's actually enjoying getting taught some of the things he is."
(Momo) "...How...do you know?"
(Sephie) "Zastin had to tell me everything."
Momo looked up at Sephie.
(Momo) "What do you mean?"
(Sephie) "I asked how Rito was doing and he said that Rito was doing well and always looked forward to training the next day, especially since it's for his family."
(Momo) "Huh?"
(Sephie) "Yep! The other stuff you can figure out later when he comes here."
(Momo) "B-but...does he hate me?"
(Sephie) "Of course not Momo."
(Momo) "...Are you sure mother?"
Sephie put her hand on Momo's head.
(Sephie) "Yes."
(Momo) "B-but."
(Sephie) "Just don't worry about it. In fact, I'm sure he will be all over you when he sees you."
(Momo) "...Really?"
Sephie then smiled at Momo.
(Sephie) "Yes! Now, be good to you and your babies Momo."
(Momo) "...Y-yes. Thank you mother."
(Sephie) "No problem."
Fifth Month
It has been two months since we've seen how Rito's training has been going, and he looked different.
What was once a scrawny looking boy who couldn't defend himself from any alien[I mean, they were way stronger than him], looked like he could beat up anyone who tried to harm him or his family.
If any of the girls that liked Rito saw him now, they would probably want to do something, even the ones that "don't like him". Rito also had a bit of a deeper voice.
(Rito) "So Zastin? That's it for today right?"
(Zastin) "Yes Rito. Tomorrow, the king should be here to watch you and give you a new training routine."
Rito tested out everything he could do compared to five months ago. He could run at Mach speed. His throws were almost one hundred percent accurate with both arms plus, they were thrown at around 250 mph. And his jump allowed him to glide through the air at about 260 mph. And he could process things way faster than any human could. He could probably build his own ship now.
(Zastin) "The king is here, so I shall take my leave."
Rito nodded his head and Zastin left.
(Gid) "Hoh? This is Good. You look much less worthless than before. That means you're ready to advance to the next level, right?"
(Rito) "Yes."
(Gid) "Though there's one thing I need you to tell me. How many times can you use that diamond I gave you?"
(Rito) "I can use it fifteen times now."
(Gid) 'Huh? I thought the kid would have only been able to use it twelve times. I guess he wanted to stop being such a wuss. That's good, because if he didn't, I would've pummeled him.'
.
.
.
(Gid) "Do you remember this sword?"
(Rito) "Yes I do. I couldn't even pick it up last time, but we'll see how I do now."
Gid tossed the sword at Rito and he caught it with one hand. Gid then threw another sword at him and Rito caught it with the other hand, it was no sweat for Rito now.
(Rito) "These are very light now."
(Gid) "Now we're talking. This is pretty interesting. Swing both swords for me."
And Rito did just that. He had no problems swinging them both at once even though they were pretty big and heavy.
(Gid) "Heh? I guess you can get your own swords now. Though there's one thing before I do that. You need to cut down several trees at once."
Rito then nodded and his arms seemed to not move.
*WOOOSH!*
And just like Gid asked, Rito cut down several trees, but only the dead ones.
(Gid) "Ok, here's your prize."
Gid handed two swords to Rito that were just like Zastin's.
(Gid) "These swords won't be able to collide with each other, so it will be easier for you to do more moves. But now that you made me interested, we're going to spar!
.
.
.
(Gid) "When I throw this cube on the ground, it will make a barrier and no matter how dangerous the attack is, neither of us will get injured. This cube will also start a timer for five minutes, and when the time limit is up, we stop. Got that?"
Rito nodded his head.
(Gid) "Ready. Set."
He threw the cube on the ground
(Gid) "GO!"
They started sparring, if you call making craters on the ground sparring that is.
Rito used one sword for Gid's tail while using the other to slice through Gid. Gid slapped away the sword and Rito used some kind of...electricity?
(Gid) "Oh? You can do that huh? Well, I'll teach you how to use it, hehe."
Gid then also manifested some kind of electricity in his hand, though it looked more powerful. Rito had a bit of a Shocked face.
(Rito) "So you can do it with your hand, not just your tail huh?"
(Gid) "Of course. It would be dumb if I couldn't do something so simple."
(Rito) "Heh? You really like gloating, don't you?"
(Gid) "Well, why wouldn't I? There's basically nobody stronger than me that I know of."
(Rito) "You know of? Well let's see if someone else can be as strong as you!"
(Gid) "Tch! Don't get too cocky, kid!"
Gid and Rito then started ramping up their spar match up.
.
.
.
(Rito) "Kuh! Dang it!"
Rito had a bunch of hit marks all over him.
(Gid) "That's what you get for being so cocky! You couldn't even wound me!"
Rito smirked.
(Rito) "Are you sure about that? Look at your leg."
(Gid) "Huh?"
Gid then looked at his leg and saw what would've been a chopped leg.
(Gid) "You damn brat...COME OVER HERE!"
(Rito) "Hmmm, I think not...bye!"
(Gid) "HEY, I'LL KILL YOU!"
(Rito) "Oh no, whatever should I do...grandpa?"
It looked like a vein popped out of Gid's head.
(Gid) "THAT'S IT! YOU'RE DEAD!"
Gid and Rito ran for a while, though it looked like Gid was actually having some fun...if you looked closely.
.
.
.
(Rito) "What else am I going to learn?"
(Gid) "You need to improve your battle style, so we're going to start with that tomorrow, then move on to improving that electric attack."
(Rito) "Alright...umm, hey Gid?"
(Gid) "What?"
(Rito) "...How's Momo doing?"
(Gid) "She's doing fine, though I still want to stomp your face for doing that."
(Rito) "Hahaha...well anyways, I'm glad that I started training since I feel like I'm not going to be dead weight anymore.
(Gid) "Tch, you're still weak. Maybe in a few months you can protect others, though you still won't be able to match my strength."
.
.
.
In a part of Gids ship, Rito had made some things based on what he read and practiced from the books he read.
(Rito) "Okay, I think I know how to create this now after reading all of that stuff."
Rito was working on some kind of ring.
(Rito) "Just a couple of things more and it'll hopefully be finished."
The ring Rito was making had black and blue colors.
(Rito) "And there we go. let's test this out."
Rito put the ring on and his body returned to the way it was before he trained. It also seemed to hide his aura and stop anybody from seeing how powerful he really was.
(Rito) "It's a success! Now I need to make three necklaces that are pink...just in case."
Rito then started working on three necklaces and...two rings?
(Rito) "Alright, those and this as well."
.
.
.
(Rito) "Now I need to put that there...ahah! there we go! Finished!"
Rito made a d-dial. He flipped the screen up and pressed some buttons. A sword that was next to him got sucked into the phone. He pressed some buttons again and the same sword appeared in his hand.
(Rito) "Yes! That's all I need for now!"
He made the rings and necklaces go in the phone.
(Rito) "*Sigh* I'm going to bed now."
Extra
At Deviluke, Momo is in her old room sitting down on her bed.
(Momo) "You know, I can't wait to see you both. You two are getting so big...I wonder what you'll look like?"
She smiled and started touching her belly.
(Momo) "Hehe~. It seems you two like this. *Sigh*...If only...Rito could see you both..."
She felt them move around more after she mentioned Rito.
(Momo) "You two want to meet him, huh? ...If...it's possible...maybe...he won't mind...but I'm scared he won't like me for what I did..."
She looked sad.
The twins put their heads against Momo's hands. She rubbed them both.
(Momo) "Maybe it will be alright...but we'll see. (Sigh) For now, I need to make sure you two are happy."
She smiled.
*Knock knock!*
(Momo) "Who's there?"
(Sephie) "It's me. Can I come in?"
(Momo) "Yes."
Sephie opened the door.
(Momo) "What happened mother?"
(Sephie) "Oh nothing. I just got done with some important things so I thought I would check on you."
(Momo) "I'm fine and so are these two."
(Sephie) "That's great. I'm glad you're being such a good mother."
(Momo) "Thank you."
She rubbed her belly again.
(Sephie) "You know, this reminds me of when I was pregnant with you and Nana."
(Momo) "Really?"
(Sephie) "Of course, and you should have seen the look on your fathers face when he found out."
(Momo) "What did it look like?"
(Sephie) "He tried to hide his smile, but he couldn't hide it from me."
(Momo) "That sounds really funny."
(Sephie) "It was, and the same goes for when he heard about Lala."
(Momo) "Big sister?"
(Sephie) "Mhm. It was the same way with her."
(Momo) "...Wow."
(Sephie) "Yes. Anyways, I bet you're hungry right?"
(Momo) "Actually, yes."
(Sephie) "Some of the butlers already made us a warm dinner so let's eat."
(Momo) "Okay."
