- Ok, work with me here- I dont know if you will like it, but it is a shot ok?
- I don not own the Autozamieans, exceptt Mikika..because she is mine, and I made her up so..nany nany boo boo, but you are welcome ot use her, as long as you ask me first^^
This takes place - after Eagle went to Cephiro and he is back, so that must mean it is based of, the manga, ^^ But anyway, it has been a few years, Eagle has married, Zazu's grown up..Geo's is still single..but that why we love him^^

-----------------------------

It was a cold bleak afternoon on the NSX, the halls were quiet as death, almost foreshadowing the events that would take place that evening. You could find no one in the recreational quarters, nor the living quarters. You could hear your own heart beat echo off the walls of the engine room, if that's where you where. Every corner stood out, every crevice, every dent, any shadow, was there if you happened to be alone in the halls. But in on the commend bridge, things where quiet different, the silence still hung around the air, except for a few occasional 'checks' on various systems that harbored on the large ship. A cough here or there, a sneeze would break the silence, until a certain black haired man, decided that the quiet was too much to bare.
" So...How about them Bronco's?" The man said out of no where. His name was Geo, Geo Metro. A tall, buff- built man, with a macho personality and a major sweet tooth. Every one turned his attention to him, especially a small teen.
" I heard that they kick major ass against some team last night, I tell yah Earth games are pretty cool. Kicking a ball and running with it...I wish was there was something like that on Autozam..." He mumble's quietly. His name just happens to be Zazu, Zazu Torque. A small teenaged boy, that loves mecha and women, not to mention he is an alcoholic, a big one at that. Another man, who was sitting in a metallic chair/ control center looked at the two and gave a soft smile. You may know him as Eagle Vision, the head commander of this vessel, besides being a commander, and the son of the president of Autozam, he likes napping and his family. But his attention soon turns to a woman, sitting off to the side, by the controls. She messes around with a stand of her light brown hair; flicking it and looking quiet bored at this point in time. Her name is Mikika Vision, Eagles wife. She's a fighter, and a major tomboy not to mention has an attention span of one. Eagle blinks a few times and keeps looking at her, which draws the others to glare at her also, Geo finally speaks up after a few seconds of silence.
" Having fun, Kika?" He yells over at her, with a chuckle. Mikika looks up, to see who said that, and immediately stops flicking her hair, and turns around in the chair, blinking.
" Eh?" She mutters quietly, " Oh...yah, lots of fun Geo-San..." She manages a soft smile and turns back around and starts to mess around with a random coin she had in her pocket before. Eagle chuckles a little, and gets up walking over to her, leaning over her shoulder and smiling.
" Mikika-Kun, is they're something bothering you?" He questions sweetly. Mikika stops spinning the coin and shakes her head, looking up at him.
" No, No...its just that-" Suddenly she is cut off, the ship jerks a few times back and forth, then comes to a complete halt in the dark depths of space. From the momentum of the stop, almost every one is flung forward. Eagle grabs on to Mikika and the edge of the chair, before she is sent flying out of her chair and taking him along with her. Geo and Zazu are already pile down the floor, trying to get up. Many others, on the lower deck of the bridge, groan and moan as they manage to get back to their senses. The door to from the back slides open and a man runs in, holding a piece of paper in his hand. Mikika smiles at Eagle, about to say something, but when she hears the door open, turns her attention to the man, and wobbles a bit before standing up completely to greet him.
" Lieutenant! Commander!" He yells to them first since their the first he see's, " We have a problem with the main engines, they have suddenly stopped working all together." He says in a panic. Mikika quickly speaks up before another word is spoken.
" I'll go out and check on it, no problems there..." She smiles, happy that now she has something to do but as she says this, Eagle also steps into the conversation, his eyes with a worried look.
" No!" He says a little forceful at first but changes the tone quickly," No...I don't want you to go out there...Its to dangerous..." He mumbles, having a bad feeling inside his soul. Geo and Zazu head over and join in to listen to the interesting topic.
" But Eagle...I want to do this...I can handle it..." Mikika frowns at him and crosses her arms, " Nothing is to dangerous for me..." She looks up at him, then at the other officer, " Ready the airlock private..." She orders.
" Private, request denied...Go and find someone else in the repair unit to do this..." Eagle says in a soft tone, looking quiet serious.
" Eagle, I can do this...Its no problem, plus its my job..." She grins toothy, " So don't argue, I can do this, its also good training, nothing will happen to me I promise." She says as she looks at the private and nods. Eagle turns his back to her, in disbelief.
" I order you not to go Mikika, it is to dangerous..." He says sounding quiet worried now. Silence passes for a minute and Eagle blinks, when he doesn't hear a response form his wife. " I know you're mad now but..." He turns around, and sweatdrops, there is no sign of her anywhere...nor the private. His glance turns to Geo and Zazu who stand there, with their back turned also. Eagle's face turns to a scowl, " Sub- Commander! Locate the Lieutenant right away!" He yells, not sounding happy at all. Geo eeps and begins to trace her steps.

----------------------

Inside the dense airlock, Mikika places a control on her hand, and immediately is surrounded by a green barrier that stays close to her skin, also know as an air barrier, used for space operations. Things can pass thought the barrier, every thing but air that is. But before she can cycle the airlock, Eagles voice is heard over the intercom system.
" Lieutenant! Report back to the bridge immediately! Orders of your commanding officer! " He yells. Mikika rolls her eyes, and knows that with the stupid hand control on, she can be heard and can hear Eagle wherever she goes.
" Eagle, I will not stop now. I have already begun to cycle the lock...So either can talk to me nicely though the whole thing, or yell at me and make matters worse...because now that you opened the intercom system, I have to hear you the whole time..." She says sharply into the device on her hand. As she presses a few buttons and the computer beeps, the door to the lock is opened and Mikika is sucked out into space. As she floats near the engines, having a hard time getting there well because its hard to move in space, she listens for Eagles response.
" Damn you Mikika, What do you think your doing!? " He curses which happens rarely. Mikika smiles as she gets near the engines.
" Eagle, shame, shame...cussing like that, and so your who ship can hear you...but I guess intercoms have to be good for something..." She chuckles a little and places her hands against the side of the ship to make her way to the controls near the engines.
" Mikika! Get back here, you where commanded to do this! " Eagle yells loudly, sounding like he is getting quiet frustrated with his wife, " I don't want you to get hurt..." He mumbles, knowing that his relationship with her, is a funny one, and things are always different between them ... His father likes to call them a pair of love struck teens, but it rarely bothers them.
" Oh, I see so...you want someone else to get hurt instead of me? That how commanders work now days..." She says sarcastically. Eagle goes silent, not speaking much; it seems that Mikika had him there.
" Fine, just hurry up will you? I am keeping the COM on though..." He mumbles. Mikika grins knowing that she won that battle.
" OK love..." She says softly into the devices and begins to open the control panel. " Oh yah, just one more question, before I make you even madder, Did you turn off the engines, because that would be awful if I died today and out her to..."
" Yes, we turned the engines off line until your done..." Eagle said, still not sounding happy one bit about all this, " And don't even mention death like that..." He says quietly. Mikika smiles as she starts to scan the engines for problems. A few beeps and loud clicking noise and the screen pops up, showing a picture of the fuel tank, and a large error signal on it.
" Ah ha..." Mikika laughs suddenly.
" What?" Eagle questions on the COM.
" I found out what's wrong, the fuel thank has a block in it...I can program the bot's to go and fix that...see that was to easy, you worry to much Eagle- Kun..." She says sweetly, as she keeps pressing a few buttons on the panel.
" I do not..." Eagle mumbles. Mikika laughs a little as she watches the screen, which has a sign that says ' Please wait' on it. The screen beeps a few seconds later and shows that the fuel tanks are back online. Mikika starts to finish inputting the program for the robots as she talks. " Hey I got it back online, I will be back soon...love yah..." She says softly, this time sounding like she meant it.

--------------------------

Back on the Command Bridge, Eagle sits in his chair, his face red with blush...holding the COM control in his hand. " Good job Kika, hurry up and get back here so I can chew you out for how you didn't listen to me..."
" I did it didn't I? I shouldn't get in trouble for something like that...plus did I tell you how much I love you and...you..." She pauses, "...You are my sunshine..." Her voice crackles from the static over the COM.
" Don't try sucking up Mikika, I still am not happy about that..." Eagle says in his normal voice but is interrupted form saying anything else as he thinks why the COM is so static now. Geo, looks on the screen, his eyes widen. Zazu notices Geo turning around and looks at the screen and stands up, his jaw dropped open.
" Holy Shit..." Is all that comes out of Geo's mouth. Eagle hears this and looks at Geo and all the others on the bridge, which is mostly everyone, who are looking up at the main screen. He looks up also, and stands up quickly. As a dark silence comes over the bridge, a soft roar can be heard as if it is far away. The screen flashes red, as warning is flashed across it. The other screen pops up, showing the outline of the ship and a large round ball behind it, the computer inputs a dotted line that follows to the back of the ship. The roar gets a little louder as Eagle stands stunned; yells break out over the ship.
" Mikika! " Eagle yells into the COM, " Mikika, get out of there!!" He yells louder.
" Wha...What for Eagle I am not quiet done yet? " The COM crackles, her voice heading out. Back at the bridge Geo, yells, " Prepare the ship, all hands on deck! Ready crash positions!!" He yells typing a few things into the controls.
" Eagle? What's all the commotion about?!" Mikika worries as she yells into the COM, then she hears it, the roar...that loud roar. Forcing her body, turns around, her mouth drops open. A meteor, heading right toward the ship, right toward her, not big enough to do much to the ship, but big enough to harm her, if she doesn't move. The large piece of space flings closer and closer to her. Suddenly to her, the stars aren't as pretty as they where at first, and space was a lot much colder and lonely.
