Everything Stays: In the Future

Hello World

The ship was dead quiet. No one would move or even act once. All except Amber. Sure, she was almost 14 now, but she had the look of utmost confusion and concern on her face as she and her parents flew up to Beacon. Fred had a scowl on his face, clearly not having the best of days. Or...the past few days. Since that Thursday, ever since Fred and Yang got the call from their son involving the relationship between Stark and Tealle, things have been building. And this Saturday, everything would come to ahead.

Finally, the Scorch family approached Beacon and made a smooth landing. Before Fred could even stand up, Yang pushed him slightly down as Amber looked on.

Yang: (To Fred; whispering) You are NOT going to blow up! Do you hear me?!

Fred: (Whispering) Yang. I'm not-

Yang: (Whispering) Frederic-

Fred: Ok, ok. Keeping my cool.

Yang: Oh you better do more than that, Frederic.

Fred: Ok! I'm not a child! (Fred stands up) Let's just go and see him. Ok?

Yang backed up a bit and nodded. Fred shoved his hands into his pocket and walked off towards the exit ramp of the ship. Yang sighed and looked over at Amber and saw her still sitting down. She walked over to her and kneeled down and got Amber to look at her.

Yang: I'm...I'm so sorry. I know none of this is fair, no of this is perfect, but...Amber, we are really trying here. I know the past 3 weeks haven't been the best and-

Amber: Mom. It's ok. Really.

Yang: Amber. (Yang takes Amber's chin to make Amber look at her) We are doing...everything we can to make sure that you live a happy and safe life. Is it ideal, no. But it is something that must be done. For you. It's always you. Well, you and Stark but that's aside the point.

Amber: Why did it have to be us?

Yang: Because. Because the worst things happen to the best people. It's what they choose to do afterwards that define them. Speaking of, we should probably get going to stop your father from ripping off your brother's head.

Amber: Probably should, yeah.

Yang got up and Amber followed her outside of the ship. Luckily, Fred was also waiting on them and the four walked towards the dorms together. Once inside the building, they went to the Team STNE dorm and knocked. However, it wasn't anyone from the team who answered.

Burly: SCORCH!

Fred and Yang: Burly?!

Burly wrapped his arms around the two pros, hugging them tightly for a few seconds. After some awkward silence, he finally let go and just smiled at the two.

Fred: Uh, it's great to see you too. I think. Where is Stark and Tealle?

Ebony: Excuse me!

Burly stepped away from the door to show Nick and Ebony standing in the middle of the room with a man in a suit, Ebony's lawyer.

Ebony: They went to the gardens. I take it you finally heard about-

Yang: The fact that Tealle is pregnant. Yes. Gardens, got it.

Yang grabbed Fred's hand and begins to drag him away from the room.

Yang: Good luck with the suite! Routing for you!!!

Yang pulled Fred away as Amber watched as the four went back to work. She then left with her parents to the gardens. Finally catching up to them, the three walked in and found Tealle and Stark sitting on a bench. Stark was the first to see the three coming. He quickly stood up and took a deep breath before walking over to them.
