THUMP

Frost jumped up at the noise. He had went asleep again after Retane had arrived back at Jade Reckoning, Clearly fatigued from his battle; It was some of the best sleep Jack had gotten since he was sent to this living hell. Half asleep, he looked around the Horsemen foyer for any hint of movement that could've caused the thumping noise.

THUMP

The adolecent was fully awake now as he heard yet another thump that seemed to eminate from the floor. Jack rose from his so called bed on the couch and grasped his staff in his hand. He let his eyes wander the large expanse of his makeshift living room, searching for the wretched sound that woke him. As he looked around he immediately remembered his comrade.

"Retane," he murmured under his breath. Or was Arith doing something crazy perhaps?

Where was the namek? When he had returned from the 'disturbance' in the Greens he had fell to the ground in the "Control Room" as Jack called it. Arith had helped him carry the green warrior to his room when he had collapsed to the ground. Dear ol' Ret' seemed exhausted at the time. Jack knew the Namek's brawl had went afoul; He saw it in Retane's eyes.

If only he had let me comeJack had thought,I could've helped... I could've protected him.

THUMP

Jack felt a vibration on the floor as the latest noise had been made. It seemed to be coming from the direection of Retane's room. Jack began walking in a fist pace towards the area, as curiosity bubbled in the boy's mind.

THUMP

Jack quickened his pace even more, as fear took over the curiosity, hearing yet another thump. "Retane?" He called as he turned the corner of the hallway that would lead to Retane's resting chamber. There was one more turn to go and he heard the coaxing of Retane's battle partner Arith:

"Ok, Retane, we have passed the hump. Just two more."

What is going on here? Jack wondered. Arith's next words were unable to be heard over Jack's bare feet smacking against the concrete floor.

THUMP

Jack was curious, frightened and ultimately confused as he half ran down to the last corner of the hallway allowing access to Retane's sleeping quarters.

Jack at last reached the last turn, turning but when doing so, sliding on a slimelike substance coating the floor. On his way down, Jack saw retane lying a few feet away while Arith sat next to him with 5 almond shaped orbs by his own side, each possesing a different hue of color.

Jack hit the ground not as lightly as he had hoped he would. Jack winced at the aching pain his tailbone had recieved from the concrete. Upon opening his eyes he saw one last almond shaped orb slide out of the Namek's own mouth being eased out by Arith. Jack's curiosity had went from fer to pain and now to a form of digust as he watched Arith place the orb by the rest nearby. Arith glanced at the ice boy while placing his golden helm back upon his head.

"Did you knock him up during Dante?" Arith questioned Jack. Jack was completely confused all over again.

"What?..." Jack said dazedly, "Wait. You mean those? Those things are-" "DONT CALL THEM THINGS! THOSE ARE EGGS JACKIE BOY!" Arith interrupted.

Jack was shocked and it was sprawled all over his face. He looked at the six colored eggs wondering all the while what the purpose was for. Would they even have a purpose? How did Retane become fertile? Wasnt he a man Namek? Jack glanced back at the golden warrior deciding that his questions could wait for the moment.

"Is that how i was born?" Jack picked up on Arith's playful wording, "I sure hope not Jackie.. You woulda been one ugly egg though." Arith responded, diverting his attention back to the eggs "You are some cute eggs! Yes you are! Yes you all sure are!" The warrior babbled at the begining life forms.

Jack decided to rise from the ground after some seconds of listening to Arith talk incoherently. Jack put his arms out to push up from the ground but instead let his fingertips brush upon a light blue egg.

Krosst

The word flushed through the adolecent's mind. The egg looked as if it was facing him somehow, Like it wanted to be picked up from its surrounding bretheren. He felt connected to the egg, a bond or connection of some sort linked him to the pale blue egg. Retane had made this for him. Retane.

Jack forced himself to look away from the egg to instead retane lying unconscious on the ground.

"Thank you my friend." he murmured to the green man.

"Oi, Jackie boy, help me get momma Ret' back into his bed" Arith told Jack, "you being his baby daddy and all, seems like you owe him one."
