EPILOGUE

Returning to Star Command, Jill was relaxing in the rec room with Booster, XR, and Mira.

"So Jill, when do you find out what team you'll be joining?" Booster asked, getting a snack from the vending machine.

"I should be getting a message on where to meet my new commanding officer any minute now!" Jill said happily. She smirked at XR next to her, who seemed more interested in a Victoria's Circuits magazine. "So I take it that you're no longer interested in me?" The little bot waved a hand in response.

"Sorry Babe, but I can't marry my captain's daughter. Too awkward. Now, I know this may leave you broken-"

"I'm shattered." Jill smirked.

"I know, I know, but I hope that in hopes of keeping things professional, we can remain friends. Hard as that may be for you, due to my irresistible good looks." Jill rolled her eyes and sighed.

"Oh, how will I manage?" Mira giggled at this before a light beeping on Jill's wrist communicator went off. "Field Agent Lightyear here." She was greeted with Dr. Cosmos face.

"Ms. Lightyear, your new commanding officer is waiting for you outside of the rec room." She got up and saluted.

"Yes ma'am! I'm on my way to meet them right now!" She closed the link and left the group. Walking up to the door, she hadn't gotten a change to unlock it when it swooshed open and she was greeted by her father's face. "Oh hi dad, sorry I can't talk. I'm off to meet my new team right now." Buzz smiled at her.

"Yeah, about that-"

"No, you can't come with. I wanna make a good first impression on them, and I won't be able to do that if I show up with my dad." Buzz's smile turned a bit nervously.

"No, honey, you see your team is-" Jill tiled her head.

"Waiting for me somewhere else, so you're here to take me to them?" Buzz rubbed the back of his neck.

"Well…not exactly...you see…" Jill began to smile nervously.

"I'm to stay here so they can meet me and-" She saw that her father was now smiling very nervously now. "You're my new commanding officer and I'm on your team now…aren't I?" Buzz nodded.

"Surprise!" Jill forcefully smiled as she screamed inside her mind and had to refrain herself from crying.

"Super." Jill knew she was in for a very long and painful road before her. And she knew she had to find a way out, even if it took her to infinity, and beyond.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

As we end this story, this is not the end of Jillian's long road to life. Quite the contrary, we have just begun. Just because this tale is now done, it does not mean that this it. There will be another story documenting Jillian's time on Team Lightyear, her ups and downs of having to work with her father with look backs on some of the characters we were introduce to and returns of characters we had thought we saw the last of in this story. So I hope you'll read the second book that will be coming soon. I want to thank all my readers and reviewers, who had stayed with me through all this, and were patient when I went on a long hiatus half way through. I can't wait to see you again, and I hope you enjoy my next story.

Thank you. And see you soon.
