Chapter Five:
After an eventful morning the group set off to the Moonlight because Renton and Eureka were wanting to see the ship after such a long time, they were very careful to not let anyone notice the two, they covered Eureka's wings and put a hat on her to hide her hair color, and Renton was barely recognizable so they didn't have to be as careful with him, and as they boarded the ship they saw the 909 and 505 in the hangar in vehicle mode ready to launch, all except for the pilots who were standing behind them looking up at their LFOs.
"It's been a while since they have been out on the waves in battle, since the formation of the Worlds Defense Army, we haven't been in to many fights since there is a cease fire agreement with the UFF, but we don't know how long that will last, especially now that you two are alive" explained Holland
"thing are bound to stir up when the UFF finds out your in Bellforest, were going to have to move very carefully to keep you two safe, because there are those who still follow Dewey's old way of thinking, and when they find out you're here will come after you." Said Mathieu who'd apparently been thinking very hard about what may happen. Then the group realized that the whole time they'd been aboard the ship there had been a quiet clicking noise, Renton looked around and saw the gleam of a camera lens with a familiar face behind it.
"Hey Stoner, long time no see." Yelled Renton, and Stoner walked don the stairs and continued to take pictures of the two standing together holding hands, and then lowered his camera and looked up at Renton who was now taller than Stoner.
"Damn. You've grown, now I feel short." Said Stoner then started laughing "And as soon as leader will allow it I'm going to put the perfect picture of you two on the cover."
"Now, Now, Stoner you're gonna have to wait a while we don't even know where they've been for the past year." Said Holland first turning to face Stoner; then to Renton and Eureka. "I want to know more about that myself."
"We'll get everyone together and record any questions and answers, especially for Ray Out, we have to Let the world know what actually happened that day, because you two are the only ones that spoke to the Skub Corals, and saved the world." Stoner went on talking about the interview, similar to the one with Master Norb, and Dr. Egan aka Dr. Bear. Stoner was in heaven, it would be the best work of his life, and he would make sure it was perfect. Renton and Eureka took advantage of his distraction to slip away and go re-explore the ship that they had so many memories on. As they came to the room where Eureka and the kids had slept they entered, and found it the same as the day they had both disappeared except for it still being clean, it had the four bunks with some of the kids drawing on the wall, but some were new, pictures of Eureka with wings, and Renton holding the kids hands, and several others. A wave of sadness swept over Eureka as the guilt of being gone for so long came rushing back to her from the sight of the pictures. She leaned on Renton who put his arm around her and looked down at her and smiled.
"Don't feel bad, we are here now, and with the kids now, we won't leave them alone again." Spoke Renton softly, and Eureka nodded and stood straight again and they walked around the ship finally arriving at the galley, where Stoner was busy telling the others where to move certain furniture to and lighting, and such in frantic preparation for the long awaited explanation of the events from the second summer of love and on.
"It's almost ready." Called out Stoner to the two standing in the doorway, "Come on in. We'll finish gathering the others and start this interview." Reluctantly the two entered and sat where Stoner told them, but not after he took a few more pictures to try and find the perfect picture to use as the Ray Out cover shot, but he hadn't found it yet, which was driving him crazy, he had taken dozens of photos and not gotten "the one" yet. When everyone had finally moved around the room into the chairs that Stoner had arranged to get everyone in the shot while still focusing on Renton and Eureka. He ran to his camera ant looked up to Renton and Eureka. "Are you two ready?"
Renton and Eureka both nodded.
"All right now, 3...2...1 and…go"
