END CLIP

Astro flicked through the TV with Jump asleep on his lap, hearing the arguing of Tenma trying to help Zoran with homework.

"That's stupid! How can anyone do anything at home if they have to work more!" the grumpy robot complained, huffing and weaving her arms across her chest. Tenma sighed wearily, resting his forehead on the tips of his fingers for a moment.

"Zoran, no-one likes to do homework, but it's just apart of school life. The more you do it, the easier it will be." He traced his finger across the blue screen, showing up a calculus problem. "Here, calculus! You like this one, don't you?" Zoran's eyes lit up.

"Sure, this one's easy! Watch this..."

A series of beeping and electronic noises filled Astro's ears as Zoran worked to solve the task. When it ceased, he heard another sigh.

"Not quite, Zoran..."

With a small laugh to himself, he flicked through to the news, which showed horrifying results of Cora's kiss in public. A whole debate of how close could a human and robot get fed the media as the tape played over and over again, on just about every channel.

A smile creased on his face. "Still worth it!" he grinned. Though it had now been two weeks since the BlackBott battle, debris was still littering the streets, which most Surface dwellers enjoyed as a playground before the Metro police could shoo them off.

Astro started to wonder about Hamegg. Where had he gone? Where else does he know? Does he know anyone? Over all, Astro was worried. At first, he had been like a farther to him, but that trust swirled away as soon as the Robot Games accrued. But Hamegg proved he saw more in Astro then just a machine, and so he continued to have the odd fatherly feeling from him. Like he was watching over him, somehow.

With a blink of his eyes Astro returned his attention to the TV, flicking to more news. But he was interrupted by a slight screeching sound from down the hall. Tenma and Zoran flicked their heads around as Z came running into the room, her hands clenched together and her face wide with excitement. Astro muted the TV and twisted around to see what the fuss was about.

Tenma tilted his head as Z started to perform a small dance on her toes, like she was some crazy five year old on too much cotton candy. "Mom? Are you okay?" Astro asked with concern. Z stood still, grinning at them all. Then her eyes just lay on Tenma.

"Bill!" she squealed. "I'm pregnant!"
