Aaron was on the wave road as NightCat, and he was fighting Mega Man. Geo was winning as he repeatedly slashed Aaron with a sword. Aaron tried to block, but his sword shattered upon impact. Geo then aimed his buster in Aaron's face as he lay helpless before him; Geo fired and Aaron woke up panting heavily.
Geo had Aaron lying in his lap as he rocked him with a nervous smile. Aaron looked at Geo still terrified from his nightmare and he didn't know what to do; tears began to well up in his eyes, and he broke down crying. Geo continued rocking Aaron trying to calm him with no success. Aaron had clearly been thrashing in his sleep as he noticed the bruise on Geo's face. Geo put a pacifier in Aaron's mouth, but Aaron only sucked on it for a few seconds before spitting it out and returning to his crying.
At that moment, Sonia walked in to the room carrying a baby bottle in her hand. "Here, give him to me." She told Geo, who immediately laid Aaron in her lap hoping that the crying would stop. Aaron continued crying and struggling until Sonia let the bottle touch his lips; Aaron instantly calmed down as he suckled on the warm milk. Once Aaron finished the bottle, Sonia burped him and then rocked him until he fell asleep. Aaron groaned while she rocked him, but he gave in to his urges as he fell asleep in her arms. Sonia laid him down in the crib and she and Geo quietly left the room making sure not to wake Aaron.
"That was some nightmare." Geo said rubbing the bruise on his face.
"I just wish I knew what it was about, so that we could help him." Sonia sighed knowing that Aaron wouldn't tell her.
"Well we better get some rest in case he wakes up again." Geo said as he let out a loud yawn. Sonia nodded her head in agreement as the two went to their rooms to go back to sleep.
No one had noticed Stalker, who had been listening to them the whole time. Stalker saw that the door to Aaron's room was cracked open, so he sneaked inside and managed to get in to Aaron's crib. He rubbed Aaron with his paw in an attempt to wake him. Aaron reluctantly opened his eyes and rubbed them a little bit as he looked at Stalker.
"So what was the nightmare about?" Stalker asked.
"Ace." Aaron lied to his friend.
"Don't give me that. What was it really about?" Stalker asked a little irritated. Aaron sighed and told Stalker what had happened in his nightmare. Stalker talked with Aaron a little more until he noticed that Aaron's eyes started to droop. Aaron said that he wasn't tired, but Stalker could see that he was. Stalker nuzzled up against Aaron and purred; Aaron felt his eyelids droop as he relaxed to the comforting affections of his partner.
"Go to sleep my little kitten." Stalker said as he rubbed Aaron's head with his paw; referring to the outfit that Hope had made for him. Stalker waited until Aaron was fully asleep, and he then laid down next to Aaron to keep him company. Even Stalker had to admit that Aaron looked pretty cute as a baby, especially in that NightCat onesie.
