Reviewer Responses

MaxJ1800: Yes, the lust ray is funny, and I don't think I've over used it, but there's something to be said about it being used by the good guys. Yes, like everything else, it bothers her, but she's ignoring it and plowing through without dealing with it. She's heading for a breakdown in this season finale. Yes, whether it's a car or a spaceship, Caelum shouldn't drive.

She stands in front of the mirror and looks at her own reflection. Tired eyes look back at her.
'I don't think...,I can keep this up. Everything is closing in all around me. My pregnancy, Tobey's humiliating me, my almost murder, The Consortium putting me on trial, my own planet trying to keep me...,and when Tim tries to protect me from some of the stress what do I do? I get mad at him. Why do I do that? He only does those things because he loves me.' She slides down to the floor of the bathroom. 'I can't believe my need to control everything when it comes to Team Alphanumeric hasn't driven him away. I don't deserve him.' Becky's tears start flowing as all the pain starts overwhelming her.

***

"Gaah!" Tim wakes up with a start. He breathes in and out trying to convince himself that the nightmare of his dark side coming back was just that, a nightmare. He notes that Becky was already up. He gets out of the bed and heads into the bathroom only to see Becky curled up in the fetal position. He quickly scoops her up into his arms. He could see the signs. She had a breakdown.
"I can't take it anymore, Tim." she whimpers. "I don't see how I haven't driven you away." she continues to cry.
"I knew from that first time we met, you had control issues.. I knew what I was getting to when we partnered up. Besides, I'm a soldier. I'm genetically engineered to take orders." he says with a smile.
"I don't like being called 'Zaniah'. I'm WordGirl, not the next ruler in line for my home world."
"I figured that might also be bothering you, but it was your murder and Tobey that pushed you wasn't it?"
"Don't forget my killing of...," she begins and a new round of tears starts.

***

Tim purposefully strides over to the door of the other private room. He hits the button letting the occupants that someone was at the door.
"What is it? I was about to have the best sex ever had on this planet?" Caelum yawns.
"Becky's had a breakdown. She can't possible take on anymore stress."
"Oh fucking lovely. Her murder?"
"That and Tobey's stunt he pulled. We when we get back to Earth...,"
"Hmmm, sick Violet on him with the lust ray?" Caelum offers and Tim chuckles.
"C'mon, let's go find gladiator and explain the situation." Tim says and the two male X weapons head for Gladiator.

***

"I had a bad feeling that this might happen. We can't possible have her try and run things now. There's a royal retreat that only the guard know about. Her mother always went there." Gladiator explains.
"She's this. This other life she's gotten because of the warlords. She doesn't want to rule Lexicon. she wants to be WordGirl and fight crime." Tim says.
"We'll need a leader while Zaniah recovers. Since you're the royal consort, you'll be ruling in her place." Gladiator states. Caelum snickers at the look on Tim's face.
"Oh the irony..., a Decimalian will be ruling Lexicon during a civil war." Caelum laughs.
"The gravity of this planet doesn't effect my super powers. I can fly there right?" Tim asks.
"Yes, but...," Gladiator begins but Tim cuts him off.
"I might have to run things in her stead, but I'm not going to leave her alone. Your guard might be good at protecting her, but I'm better. I'll fly at night if I have to."

They were all awaiting the arrival of Princess Zaniah. She would, like her mother, find a way out of this mess. What they got though wasn't what they expected. Tim comes into the room wearing the same sort of garb that the last royal consort wore.
"Where is the princess?" one of the gathered asks.
"Because of recent events, my beloved needed to be away from everything. She's staying at the royal retreat. I've been given full authority." Tim states showing the consort and royal signet rings. Shock crosses the military advisors and those that had been on the continuing council who had been trying to get the new democratic government up and running. "I'm assuming that someone has a map of the front lines." Tim states and someone pushes a button and Caelum could see a map of Lexiconian space and the different fleets positioned across the territory.
We're lucky that we've got the resources we do. The warlords have used propaganda in order to sway people. they made those gullible enough to believe that Zaniah didn't care enough to stay and rule." one of the advisors states.
"Asses." Tim growls. Caelum ignores everything except for the map with the ships.
"Smart asses at that. I'm guessing that the planet is split up just like these fleets." Caelum states.
"Yes. If we don't win a major battle soon we're doomed." the advisor states.
"Why is Lexicon in such a bad way?" Caelum asks.
"It's the Consortium. With our normal trade routs closed along with the lack of ships we aren't in the best condition to fight. somehow, the warlords found several junkyards with broken down ships. They've been repaired and have bolster their forces. Those ships might not have been the best to use against Decimal, but they're good enough for a civil war." one of the high ranking members of military explains.
"Caelum, aren't there just as many obsolete Decimalian ships?" Tim asks.
"Yeah, but it would be hard getting them through those blockades." Caelum states.
"Yes, those Consortium ships are a problem...," Tim loudly thinks scratching his chin.
"If we don't do something about them the warlords will just wait us out until we are forced to surrender." another advisor says.
"Caelum, get in contact with our home world. see if they can do something about that fleet." Tim says.
"You do realize that they might say 'no', right?" Caelum states.
"Yeah, but nothing says that we can't try." Tim states.

"Look, I've seen what they're facing. The Consortium is choking the ones trying to fix the warlords' little red wagons. The Consortium is just picking on Lexicon right now because Lexicon is weakened from the war the both they and us fought against The Archive. For the first time in history our two worlds fought on the same sides and not that Lexicon is being throttled by The Consortium, it's business as usual. I may be only a X soldier, but I know that both sides have to be tired of the old rivalry. We all know what'll happen when Lexicon has to become a Consortium province. Decimal will be next and we won't have enough resources to fight back." Caelum states.
"Caelum...,you ought to consider a career in Decimalian politics." the Decimal on the other side of the connection. "Decimal shall give support to the Lexicons."
"I'm not a politician, they are more ruthless than super soldiers." Caelum states.

***

"This is another INN special report. It appears that Decimal has actively taken a side in the Lexiconian civil war. The newly elected president of the Decimalian Confederation had this to say."

***

"The Consortium has overstep its authority of the galaxy in its actions against planet Lexicon. The Decimal Confederation shall not stand by and wait on The Consortium to come after us next. As I speak, a convoy of ships carrying military and medical supplies is heading right for Lexicon. If The Consortium was wise, they would let them through...,if they are not wise, then they attack it. If they attack the convoy, then they will be declaring war on Decimal."

***

"So far The Consortium hasn't responded, but it'll be another twelve standard cycles before the convoy reaches the blockade. In other news, it appears that Princess Zaniah isn't the one in control of planet Lexicon. Her consort is in full power. Sources tell INN that Zaniah has had a breakdown and is resting comfortably at the royal retreat in the tropical region of Lexicon."

"Damn it! Who told them where Becky is? And why can't they use her Earth given name?" Tim growls pacing in his room.
"Calm down. It'll do you no good to go and fly off the handle." Emma states.
"Someone on this ball is feeding INN everything." Caelum states.
"And I want to know why." Tim growls.
"Probably gets off on being an independent source for INN. Maybe there's a Lexiconian version of Scoops on this ball." Caelum says smirking.
"When are you going to see her?" Emma asks.
"I'm flying there tonight. I'll be able to keep in contact if there's an emergency." Tim answers.
"We'll be joining you. Where's that damned monkey>?" Caelum asks.
"Huggy went with her. I've never seen her so...,broken." Tim states.

***

Tim opens the door to see Becky curled up on a leather chair reading. He takes a look and is impressed with the amount of Lexiconian literature he sees.
"I see it took you no time to find your mother's private library." Tim says smiling. Becky looks up and Tim could see that the light in her eyes that had been dulled was now back with vengeance.
"My Lexiconian mother was a wonderful person. My father on the other hand is an even worse dancer than I am." Becky giggles.
"Read her journals I see." Tim states.
"Huggy insisted that I read her journals. I know why they loved her so much here on Lexicon." she says and motions for him to sit and he does so. "I need to apologize."
"For what?"
"My control issues comes from my mother. Father was more submissive than you are to me. You've done everything in your power to protect and love me and I've blown up in your face for trying to do what you've thought was best."
"You know I could never hold a grudge against you for long."
"I've got to learn to trust you more and not let the weight of everything rest on my shoulders. I've also got to un-bottle everything now that I've got a wonderful boyfriend to vent on."
"I know you know words better than 'wonderful'."
"Magnificent? Terrific? Superb?"
"That's my Becky." Tim says and kisses her. She would recover from this. When they got back to Earth, Tim was going to find a padded sell to put Tobey in.
