A Hero & A Weapon
Returning
by SSJ04 Mewtwo

***

A blue light flashes signifying the arrival of Caelum to the darkened X weapon ship. He goes over to the control panel and activates the equipment needed for this friend's recovery. The tank comes to life and the artificial X weapon DNA fills the tank.
"This is Caelum, beam him down." he orders and Tim's body appears in the tank with the oxygen mask immediately going over his face. the ship's main internal lights come on. Caelum turns quickly to see the princess.
"What are you...,Tim!"
"Calm yourself, Zaniah. He's gone through something I wouldn't wish on a Lexiconian and that's saying something."
"What are you doing back here? You were the one...,'
"My caste made a mistake so I appealed to the other two castes. The X weapon now answers directly to the Math and Science casts."
"Why would they...,"
"You've read up then...,good...,that means I don't have to go into a long explanation. The other two castes grow tired of the Warrior caste's arrogance. The leaders of my caste are fools. The Warrior Caste wants back control of the council, but they keep making bad decisions like using the Anti-X serum."
"What is that?" WordGirl asks.
"It is supposed to destroy any with the X weapon DNA. Fortunately, the other two castes have come up with a counter to that. He'll be in there for at least three Earth days." Caelum states. Huggy was looking over at the room they were in. He and WordGirl had only got to the cockpit o the craft, but the rest of the ship had been locked up tighter than any Lexiconian ship he'd been on.
"Then he's going to be...,"
"Well now, a Lexiconian cares about a Decimalian...,history has been made." Caelum jokes.
"I thought he'd be...,"
"Not while I'm around. This X weapon has helped me out of too many situations. He made sure that the leaders of my caste would not throw me out for taking someone below my status as my mate."
"You guys have a screwy government."
"It might be screwy, but it keeps Decimal in balance, unlike your aunt."
"My aunt?"
"Monkey, you are going to have to tell her. Lexicon has been getting curious about why Decimal has been hanging around a second class world." Huggy sighs realizing that if Calisto found her niece, then Becky would be in trouble.

***

His eyes open to see that he was back in his healing tank. He could hear muffled voices somewhere in the ship. He concentrates and hears the familiar voice of Becky. He relaxes as the liquid is drained from the tank. He walks out and quietly heads for his private room. He puts on his Earth clothes and throws a test punch. He nods to himself seeing that his strength along with his mind was fully in tact.

"I'm not mad, Huggy, but I just you would have told me more about my past." WordGirl states. Huggy sees Tim coming over, but before the monkey could warn her, Tim covers her eyes.
"Guess who?" he whispers.
"Why you...," she says and gets out of his grasp only to squeeze the air out of him in a hug.
"Miss me then princess?" he teases.
"I'm Becky, or WordGirl, not Zaniah or princess."
"I'll only call you that when we're in public...,any other time it'll be 'Zaniah' or 'princess'."
"Why you!" she fumes and he laughs.
"I like it when you get all frustrated with me." he says grinning.
"Do you realize everyone asked me about what happened to you? I'm not a good liar!"
"Don't worry, I'll shall show myself at school tomorrow." she says and kisses her on the cheek.
"Don't you dare think that'll calm me down."
"I'll make sure...," he begins but the communications console lets out a a beep. He presses a button to accept the transmission.
"This is a secure transmission from the Council of Nine. This transmission will have no record. This transmission will be kept top secret. Enter level 9 security code." a voice says. Tim bites his lip. He had never had to use his level 9 security clearance. He punches his code. The screen shifts to the view of the head of the Council of Nine.
"X Weapon 001, Lexicon has found out about our activity around Earth. They will surely find out about princess Zaniah. You are now under orders not to let any agent of Queen Calisto near Zaniah."
"Understood." the X weapons states.
"You're on your own. We can't send help in order to stop Lexicon without causing a fire fight near a second class world. Decimal out." the screen goes dark and Tim sighs he was now going to play bodyguard, but he didn't mind. It meant that he would be spending more time with her.
"I don't need a bodyguard."
"Of course not, but you're getting one anyway."
"I don't know why I like you."
"This," he replies and kisses her on the lips. He pulls back to see her blushing.
