Oil Slick
I knew somehow that Aquila would be interested in having a…personal relationship with Kiba. I knew nothing could come out of it. He was much too old for her. Well, at least by Master's standards he was. I decided, finally, to contact him and tell him about it.
"Oil Slick to Master Lockdown".
No response. Maybe he was too far out of range. I tried several times, and still didn't get any replies. I gave up my attempts, so now I had to make sure that Prowl's son wouldn't cause any trouble for Aquila…or me.
On more than one occasion, I'd try to keep her away from Kiba by distracting her with something else. Even though we didn't live on the ranch, Aquila wanted to help with a few things. Kiba was often her partner in this. An action taken by Peter that I deeply disliked.
Anyway, it wasn't long before I told her about the Jungle Planet.
"It's the last refuge of all Beast Morphs. It's never had a queen or female leader. It's always believed that mechs were superior" I told her.
"Sexist jerks!" Aquila replied.
"Well, it's their way of life. Why do you know all this anyway?" I asked.
"I wanna go to the Jungle Planet. Something tells me that I need to be there".
"What kind of something?".
"Inner instinct, I guess".
"Well, if we're gonna go, we need to go as soon as possible".
"I know what it is".
"What?" I asked.
"You don't want me hanging around Kiba".
"I'm looking out for you. Your father would do the same".
"Dad would've been worse about it. Remember when Andromeda brought that one mech over? Dad threatened to shoot him if even thought about kissing her".
"That was funny" I commented.
"No it wasn't".
I shrugged. "Sure it was".
"No it wasn't".
"Are we gonna argue about this all day or what?" I asked.
"I guess we have to tell the others what's going on, huh?".
I nodded. "Yeah, guess we do".
A/N: How was that? I might actually make a fic for when Andromeda brought that guy over and Lockdown threatens to shoot him. Just a thought. Next chapter: Lockdown meets Scourge and seems to know him somehow.
