Chobits: I Like it!!!: Chapter 14

The Hilton's: Ties That Bine

Days after the the attacks, Danny and the others had time to mourn the fallen. Meanwhile, Megan was still unconscious and fully human once again. As Richard tried to assure Javier that she was physically fine. Many had to wonder was she going to be mentally fine as well.

Richard: From what I can tell, she will make a full recovery. However, I would recommend that we keep an eye on her to be sure she hasn't suffered any mental trauma during her ordeal.

Danny: Years kept as a prisoner by Zeus.....

Javier: Megan is tough! I'm sure she will get through this!

As they grew silent and stared at each other and at Megan, they all felt saddness for all the events that have happened and what still awaits them. Suddenly the silence was interrupted by Sean.

Sean: Danny....There is someone here to see you. She said that you know her?!

Danny slowly turned to leave the room but stopped and looked at Megan.

Danny: Megan....its time to wake up and show us that your fine and healthy.

Danny slowly left the bedroom and entered the living room, where a lady dressed in a bussiness suit waited for him.

Lady: Hello Danny....its been far to long! I think the last time I saw you was when my mother was still alive!

Danny didn't recognize the voice and could only wonder who this woman could be?!

Lady: Forget who I was already! Its me, Danny! Corrine.

Danny: Little Corri!

Corrine laughed,

Corri: No one has called me that in years! Not since my sister died....

Danny: I'm sorry.

Corri: No apologies needed! She lived a good normal human life! I must admit that I was jealous of her and her ability to live such a productive life....well that's not why I came here! Come sit with me Danny.

Corri: I heard of the tragic deaths of your grandsons and Bella and her husband Simon....all good people. I'm joining your little crusade to put a stop to Zeus's madness!

Danny: Why would you put your life at risk? You seem to be out of the loop of all this horror.

Corri: It may appear so....but my niece is not, my little Lillian! If she is fighting, then its my duty to fight along with her....she is my last living relative!

Corri: I want her to have a long life just like her mother....once this is over I want to her to be able to see this world and accomplish all her dreams!

Danny: I do too!

Corri: That is why I'm giving you my home to relocate since the enemy knows of this place. Its just not safe here anymore for any of you!

Danny: Your home! We wouldn't want to impose....

Corri: You won't be imposing at all! Besides I've been staying at my other home! You've actually been there.

Danny: I have?

Corri: Where you met your mother and where Victoria is staying at the moment!

Danny: Of course you two were close friends back in the day!

Corri: You make it sound like such a long time ago.....oh wait it was! Being immortal all these years you sometimes forget of how much time actually passes!

As Danny and Corri talked about the past the time came to say their goodbye's, before Corri left she had the chance to run into her niece Lillian!

Lilly: Aunt Corri!

Corri: Oh my dear Lilly!

Lilly: Aunt Corri its been such a long time since I've seen you! I missed you so much!

Corri: Oh honey! I'm sorry for not contacting you but I'm glad to see you in one piece! My, my you look like your mother every time I see you!

Lilly: I miss her and my dad and not seeing you for such a long time, I've never felt so alone!

Corri: Oh my little Lilly....you're never alone! When I look around here, you are surrounded by people who love and would die for you! I know things may seem hopeless now but after all this you and me will drink the cure together and live somewhat of a normal life!

Lilly: Yes! Somewhat normal! We wouldn't want life to get to boring!

Corri: I feel overjoyed knowing that your alive and with people that love you!
Lilly: Me too, Aunt Corri!
As the night went on Corri and Lilly said their goodbye's. As Corri left the compound she ran into Harley.

Corri: Well, well....if it isn't the grandson of the infamous Sheri! I've heard that you have been fighting against your own grandmother but thought it was just a rumor!

Harley: Well, when your own grandmother doesn't attend her own son's, my dads funeral, and starts killling other family members, I think I wouldn't call her family any more!

Corri: I also heard that you almost died in this last attack! You seem fine now don't you!

Corri: How would you like to visit Sheri in the next couple of days?!

Harley: What?! When?!

Corri: Victoria, myself, and a few others plan on invading their nest soon!

Harley: I thought everyone was going to attack them with Danny?!

Corri: Why risk more lives and a bigger crowd, no we aim to do this without Danny's knowledge! Are you in or not?!

Harley: I'm......I'm IN!

With that Harley left Danny's group without saying a word and left with Corri.

The following morning, the group got some great news! Megan had finally recovered and is doing great! Once Javier knew Megan was awake he rushed to be with her!

Javier: Hey beautiful! Long time no see!

Megan slowly turned around in a happy surprise!

Megan: Javier!

Megan: I knew I see you again! I just knew it!

Javier: Megan....I have to apolo.....

Megan: No apologies Javier......We both said some things that we regret the last time we saw each other! However, throughout these years, all I could really replay in my head was the day at the airport, when I decided not to go with you to Paris!

Javier: Megan.....the things I said then were the truth and I didn't say them in grief over the loss of my sister! I truly meant what I asked you then! I really wanted you to be my wife and to live the rest of my life with you and have lots of spoiled childr....

Megan: YES!

Javier: What?!

Megan: Yes!!! My answer that I regret not saying back then...is YES! I want to marry you Javier....I love you!!!

Javier stood in the doorway for a moment in shock and then in shear happiness he quickly grabbed Megan and kissed her!

Javier: I love you too!!!

About two days later, as the group packed up some belongings to move to Corri's home, Athena came over with some strange news.

Danny: Mother, I wasn't expecting a visit from you today but I'm glad you came! Tell me how are the others....how is Victoria?

Athena: They are all fine! Victoria is still mourning the loss of her other son but doing better!

Athena: Danny, the reason I came here was to give you and your group a gift! Something to help all of you have a better chance at fighting my brothers!

Danny: What is it?

Athena: I have a spell that can grant others with enhanced abilities....enabling them to move quicker, be stronger, and simply have a better chance against immortals such as my brothers!

Danny: That's amazing!

As Danny looked at his mother he noticed her hair was beginning to turn greyish white!

Danny: What are the risks of this spell mother and have you already performed it once?

Athena gave Danny a little smile as she realized that he was worried for her safety.

Athena: I have done this spell on Victoria's group already! There is small price for performing this spell on the user.....I will lose some of my spiritual essence, in other words my magic won't be as powerful as it use to be!

Danny: Mom, I can't ask you to risk your own life for me its jus....

Athena: Enough! Its my duty as your mother to ensure that my children live....even at the cost of my own life! Now lets inform the others of what must happen!

So Danny gathered the others to expain the situation and to introduce them to his mother!

Athena: It's a pleasure to meet all of you! My Danny has told me soo much about all of you and your families!

Athena: As Danny explained, I wish to give all of you the power to stand up to my brothers and have a chance to leave all of this behind and look forward to a better future!

Danny: So....what do you guys think? I understand if some of you don't want to continue....especially what has happened recently wih Bella and the others!

The group looked at Danny and at Athena for a few moments in silence, which made it seem like a much longer time!

Lilly: I'm in! I would love nothing more than to get the strength to kick your uncles asses! And after all this I'm getting another damn tatto to never forget who we've lost in this war!

Javier: I'm in! This war has taken my sister and some of my nephews already, I'm not letting it take anymore of my loved ones!

Sean: I'm in! Although my family died before all this....all of you are now my family! I won't let this war take any of you!

Richard: I know my brother Ray wouldn't hesitate in joining and my brother Henry wouldn't hesitate to let Ray go in without him! For them and for Ron and my sister's....I'm in!

Megan: I'm so in! I let those bastards control my life for years! I would love nothing more than to pull every strand of blonde hair from Sheri's head for what she did to my friends and soon to be family!

When Megan spoke, Athena's face changed, almost indicating bad news for Megan.

Athena: I'm sorry my dear, you can't be involved in this process!

Megan: WHAT! Why the hell not!!!

Athena: This spell is risky, especially for mortals! I know under different circumstances you would be fine but the way you are now it could affect the baby!

Megan: Baby....what baby!

Athena: The baby you carry my dear!

The room went silent for a moment.

Megan: I'm having a baby!!!

Athena: You sure are my dear!

Megan: Javier! We're having a baby!!! Javier.....

As Megan turned around and looked at Javier, she noticed he had completly turned more pail! Before she could say another word Javier fainted!

Megan: Javier!

As the others surrounded Javier, they all realized that he was fine!

Megan: Oh my god! I'm having a baby! Oh my god....I'm having a BABY!!!

Richard: After all we've been through....this is what knocks out Javier in a single blow!

Sean: So your preggers....didn't you guys just get back together like two days ago! You two don't waste any time do ya!

Megan: Shut up Sean!

Danny: Well, I guess we'll have to find a safe place to hide you until this war is over! But this is nothing short of a miracle, congrats to the both of you!

Megan: Thank you Danny!!!
