Unknown to Mimi and Damien, Saul and MacGruder were eavesdropping on their little conversation, catching just enough of it to be suspicious.
"I knew it!" hissed Saul between clenched teeth, balling up his fists. "I knew we couldn't trust that blasted squirrel!"
"Ahem!" interrupted MacGruder, looking indignant.
"Oh, shut up!" Saul said, smacking him on the head. Turning back towards the main area of the hangar he watched Damien getting into his ship. "That little scoundrel! He's pullin' a doublecross on us!"
"Mr. Raynham isn't going to like this," MacGruder said fearfully. He nervously adjusted his tie, swallowing a lump in his throat.
"That's putting it mildly," noted the fox. "C'mon, let's get Jonsie and get outta here. That creep probably told the dame what we look like, and I'd like very much to avoid being arrested before we can report back to the boss..."
With that, they left.

Feeling her lips where Damien has just kissed her, Mimi pauses for a moment and smiles slightly, before walking of to speak to her superior, Fritz Warner.

Drake shrugs.
"Its marriage or death, is there much of a differnece?"
Grins and runs a scan on the masers, glancing over at Ayla.
"Hmm... things alright there?"

"It isn't anything important." Ayla says quietly looking down as Damien walks in.
"Let's head out." Damien says happily as he walks up to teh thingypit.
AYla watches him walk off and lowers her head.
"Hey Damien, I'm not feeling to well. Can you handle the lift off?" AYla asks standing by the door.
"Sure thing. GO lay down and relax then." Damien replies as he begins setting a course for Toxus System.
Ayla sighs and walks down the hall to her room. As she walks by, Drake is able to see her eyes moisten up. She shuts the door to her quarters gently.
Damien whistles as he flips the lst of the swtiches and teh shuttle lifts off. It slowly turns around nad heads up through the atmosphere. Damien leans back in his seat and looks down the hall towards Drake.
"Hey Drake! CHeck the shields as well. Then i wan tyou to run a medical check on yourself. If Ayla is coming down sick, i don't wan tyou to end up puking when i need your knowldege to glue this rust bucket back together, alright?" He shouts, oblivious to Ayla's actions.

Drake glances over at Ayla, then checks the shields.
"All seems good cap'n. If ya don't mind, I think I'll see what symptoms Ayla has first. Easier to find any symptoms that way."
Drake heads towards Ayla room, knocking gently.
"Of course, it anit too hard to see that its a symptom of love that shes currently suffern from. Not all that hard to see, unless your completly oblivious. Seems thats the case with Damien...

The door slowly opens and Ayla looks out, seeing Drake. She steps aside and let's him in. Her room is set up with a rack of various lamps, a light silver one glowing slightly, a large plush pillow mattress and various little decorations hanging around. SHe motions to a chair and sits on the mattress.
"Can i help you, Drake?" She asks quietly as she looks at a small crystal sitting on a golden pyramid in front of her.
The crystal glistens with a variety of colors, that seem to relax anyone who looks at it.
In the cockpit
Damien is whistling as he guide the shuttle along its path. "Finally, can give Ayla a decent payment after this run. Hope she doesn't mind the wait. Hope that kiss was enough to maybe sway Mimi from trying to blow me away next time we meet." He chuckles as he leans back in his seat.

Drake takes a seat on the chair, then looks directly at her.
"Actully Ayla, its more can I help you? Judging from the expression you gave just eariler and the tears on your face, its not a physical illness your sufferin from. Care to share why you haven't told Damien your feelings yet?"
Drake waits with a caring look to his scruffed up face.

"Why is it always the canines how notice?" Ayla whipsers quietly and wipes her eyes.
She looks up Drake and sees the caring look on his face.
"Yeah, i do love him, but it is a love i can't act on." She says quietly as she picks up the crystal. "I'm an ALdebaran adn Damien, he..." SHe stops and looks back at teh crystal.
A few moments go by and she sniffs a little.
"He is of a special lineage taht neither side would accept us being together. An Assassin sister and...a Knight." She says and tears burst from her eyes.
She drops teh crystal and buries her face in her paws. The crystal bounces across the floor, flashing brightly as it rolls.

"Not the fact I'm Canine hon, just too observent for my own good."
Drake moves towards the crying cat and gives a hug.
"There there, things have there ways of workin out. I'm not sure myself how they will, but they will. Then again, I'm just an engineer with a little medical training. Fixin' machines and mending bones is easier then fixin' hearts mending loves. A little clearification might help though, considern' I don't know jack about Knights and Assassins."
Drake waits, neither pressing her for infomation yet not pulling away so she could continue to cry.

Ayla wipes her eyes a little, trying to wipe a few tears away.
"It is Damien's past. A past he is proud of. His dad was flying him around in a shuttle when he was young. The toads shot at them adn his dad lost control. They crashed on a planet and his dad died saving Damien." Ayal whispered adn looked at Drake, "The planet's name was Nharnia. An old lion took him in and raised him. Damien eventually was able to prove himself worthy of becoming a kinght and completed teh training."
she breaks down and cries again. After a few seconds, she composes her self and points to a picture of Damien adn herself at teh ALdebaran castle. She taps a specific spot on his vest.
"He carries it right there. A constant reminder." SHe whipsers.
She suddenly turn and starts crying on Drake's shoulder again.

Drake sighs and lets her continue to cry.
"Okay, now why wouldn't either side like ya if ya expressed the love ya both feel? From what little I can peice together, most knights wouldn't hurt the fairer gender, and considern' the stun bolts, as harmless as they are, he'd be kinda goin' aginst his code I'd gather. Or, thats the most I was able to gather from that one lizard fella when him and his buddies ended up tryin to rob my hanger, but I think he called himself a Samuri or somethin' like that."
Drake brings Ayla's face up so he can look into them.
"So the big question I gotta ask, is why the frell your so worried about what anyone else thinks? So your two groups will probbly disown ya, maybe worse even. If ya ask me though, how ya feel should go first over how anyone else feels. Then again, this could all be the rabblin of an ole dog who has no plans to settle and get old with someone, so my advice anit the most solid in the Aniverse, though I anit got no complaints as far of bad advice."

"THis woudl be easier if i knew two things? Did the Queen know he was a Knight when she assigned me to him? And what does he feel about me? I mean we act like friends and all, but i haven't seen any signs that says anything else. Fear of rejection is a terrible opponent, that no training on ALdebarran can prepare me for." Ayla whispers. "The only reason i know aout his past is i accidently found out about the sword one day adn he explained when i asked him."
She straightens up and wipes her eyes.
"As for teh stun bolts, that wa Mimi's idea, not his." She said with a sad shrug. "Frell, how can i compete against Mimi? He has a longer history with her than me."

Outside the craft, Mimi is listening to the conversation, and realises how much Ayla cares for Damien. 'Gee, I'd better help this girl out' Mimi thinks to herself, as she continues to listen.

Yelling back from teh piloting bay and over the intercom, "Drake and AYla, i hope you two are ready for launch. ALl systems are go and we have a job to do, before that Ranyhem fella figures out we ain't doing his job for him" Damien yells from teh piloting bay.
THe lights beging to flash on teh outside of the shuttle and doors begin to close as the engines begin to warm up.

"Ha-ha-ha!" laughed Dr. Croaker as he and the two hulking Stormtoads charged into the hangar. Well, to put it more accurately, the Stormtoads charged in; Croaker was riding on the back of one of them, clinging to the big toad's upper body harness. "We're home free, boys!"
Without wasting time, the three toads hurried over to their ship, which had not been touched since they first arrived on Genus, and quickly ascended the boarding ramp. Once inside, Croaker dismounted from the big Stormtoad and then quickly ran into the cockpit, activating the ship's engines. The boarding ramp retracted, and the outer doors began to close.
