There was a small child with blue electrifying hair and blue electrifying eyes that had like electricity running through them every time a storm came through. The child was a female, but her hair was spikey and short making it look like that she was a boy.
She was walking around down the streets of New York alone and well… not afraid as most kids would be. She had no parents and remembered nothing of them or anyone of that matter. She didn't even know her own name for one matter. All she had was a small bearded dragon named, 'Razz'.
She had on a dark cloak that was a dark black and some black boots on her feet. Underneath the cloak was a white T-shirt with a cartoon character of a fox and a hound. She had on small jeans.
She was no older than10 and had a very liking of thunder storms, especially if it's thundering and raining outside. She had no friends since the nanites explosion and no one talked to her a lot. She was in the rain. She loved the feeling of rain ever since she woke up in a forest where everything was burned away by fire caused by lightening. She found Razz in the rain and they became buds.
Well, Razz grew to be an enormous size, the size of a Doberman. He was quite the show off.
The child walked happily to an abandoned cathedral where no one lived, thankfully. She opened the doors fully, letting in the rain. She didn't care if it got wet since she loved the rain.
She walked through the cathedral and found the cross with a statue of Jesus Christ. She walked near it and bent down as if kneeling. She spoke.
"Oh, great father of us all. I humbly come before you to ask of one thing before I pray." The child looked up to see the stained, broken glass shining in the moonlight. She took it as a sign to go on.
Razz looked at the small child he called a friend. He smiled in a kind way and curled his tail up, and he sat like a dog would.
"Who am I? Where do I come from? What's my purpose for us all? What's my name? I know I have waited for the right moment to ask since I'm now 10 years old to ask you. I really want to know if it's alright to ask."
Razz smiled, he knew that she wanted to know her purpose. Heck, she was in a field where Razz lived! He knew something was odd and miraculous about the small child other than her memory loss of everything and her odd color of eyes and hair.
The shining stopped as a figure was in the way of the light. Razz growled out a warning sign, running to the child. Spikes grew out of the lizard's back and his tail was like a spikey club.
"My, my, my… what is a small child like you doing in a creepy abandoned cathedral like this? Where's your parents?" A male's voice asked the child. The voice sounded closer now than before.
The child looked up to see a man with long black hair and brown colored eyes. Some grayish whitish color was in his hair as well. He had on a cloak that was red, so she couldn't see him really well. There was something odd about him that made her feel comfortable around him. "I live here. It's a Sunday and I need to pray." She replied.
Razz was nervous so he moved closer to the child.
"You live here? That didn't answer my question. Where's your parents?" He asked, bending down to the child.
"I… I… I have none… I think… I don't really know if I do or not." She recalled to him, looking up with her electric blue eyes.
"So no parents? Any brothers and sisters? Cousins or Nephews, nieces?" He asked, receiving a shake of her head 'no'. "How about friends? Do you have any friends? I see you have a pet. He's might active for a lizard."
"He's not a pet. He's my only and will be friend I have. I met him when I awoke in a field alone and he was there, lending me a hand." She replied, hugging the spikey lizard with no pain. She looked at the older man.
"Oh, my mistake. So you tell me that you awoke in a field with no one else around you except for…" The man started to say, but stopped when he didn't know the lizard's name.
"Razz."
"… Razz. What did the area look like around you? Anything off?" He asked, hoping it was what he was looking for.
"Well…. There was fire all around me, but I wasn't being burned. It was also thundering and lightening and raining as well. That's all I remember." She told him, loosening her grasp on Razz's neck.
"Did you lose your memory?"
The child was quiet for a moment before nodding. "Yes. All of it I think. I only remember waking up. Nothing before it at all."
"Hm….. Did anything happen to you when you left the field with Razz? Like any odd events." The man asked.
"What kind of odd events?"
"Oh like the sort of what has been happening all across the world. What's happening on TV sort of events." He replied, smiling.
"TV? What's a TV? Is it the box with moving pictures on it?" She asked.
The man was taken aback. She didn't know what a TV was? Poor thing. He found one or so he was thinking. The way she said she had awakened in a field with a large lizard made him think she was one of those creatures. "Why yes, it is. Do you have one?"
"No. I only see it when I walk into town and stuff." She replied.
Razz was curious about the man and his knowledge on the human world. Razz did know what the modern technology of the world was now and then, but he didn't know some things. He knew about TV's.
"Well, how about I show you? If it's alright with your friend then, right Razz?" The man asked the overgrown spikey lizard.
Razz was caught off guard and he powered down, leaving no spikes on his back and tail as he stared, blinking at the older man now looking at him. He looked at the child who was pleading to go with the older man to see a so called 'TV' then back to the older man. He was thinking about it, clearly he was the foster parent of the child. So, his advice counted on top of everything else.
"Please, Razz! It's only for a while! I want to see what a TV is! I promise not to talk to strangers and other people!" The child pleaded, hugging Razz.
Razz smiled and looked at the man. He nodded opening his mouth, "Yes, you can if you keep her safe from others."
The man froze when he heard the lizard spoke. He stared in disbelief at the lizard. "You… You can talk?"
"Why, yes. I'm much more evolved than my brethren and older generations to come. I can speak clearly in any language, but English is much more suitable for me to talk in. I find it much more intriguing than any other language, even my own for that matter.
If you can't see the more evolution, then didn't you witness my spikes growing out of my back? I think they call my kind an EVO. You would know all about that since you're an EVO as I right?" Razz asked the befuddled humanoid Evo. He was clearly was amused with the expression on the man's own face right now so much that he was laughing.
"How… How did you know? I conceal myself pretty well for a humanoid EVO. You tricky lizard, you knew all along didn't ya? Is the child…?" He was beginning to ask, but stopped when thunder cracked in the air.
"I can sense your aura and tell what it is. You can control vines, correct?" Razz asked him.
The child was utterly confused as a hamster. She didn't understand what an 'EVO' was and what they were all talking about. "What's an EVO?"
Razz turned to the child smiling, "It's nothing important my dear. Now, get to bed. Tomorrow we are going to the zoo and this man will accompany us as well." He said to her, nuzzling her goodnight kiss and sent her off to a room.
She whined about it before she yawned to prove Razz's point. "Fine. But you owe me a ride to the zoo!" She declared, running to her 'room' and turning off the lights.
After a few minutes, Razz spoke again, "You're not asleep yet, Chibi! If you're not in bed this minute, I will come in there and ground you from stealing for a month!"
That was rewarded with a whine and a finally 'Yes sir!' before nothing else seemed to move again.
"How did you know that she wasn't asleep?"
"I can tell from her vibrations. I can read her mind only and know that she's awake. She's pulled this stunt every time I send her to bed when something important comes up." Razz laughed, walking up to the man before sitting down again.
"You're that good for an animal EVO?" The man asked.
"Yeah. Anyway, since you already know my name, tell me your name." Razz asked seriously.
"My name is Van Kleiss. I'm a fully controlled humanoid EVO. I'm searching around the world for kids with an odd or wonderful EVO ability." Van Kleiss said, smiling.
"Van Kleiss? Odd name, but mine is odd as well! So, you think Chibi is an Evo? Well, she might be or not. I don't actually know if she is." Razz thought back, flexing his arms.
"You have to know. She has no memory of her past life before the age of 8 or so." Van asked.
"I truly don't. I can't sense any odd nanites inside her activating."
"Well, mind if I stay a bit to see if she is truly one?"
"Not at all."
The zoo was open and everyone was happy as ever. Balloons were everywhere to some kids and the parents were already buying some. Food stands were open for the hungry walkers. Restrooms were also in use, but not a lot.
"Cool! This is the zoo! So many animals! Maybe there will be some like you, Razz!" The child giddily called ontop of Razz's back.
Van Kleiss walked side by side with Razz and the child. He was watching them closely to see if they were very special Evo's he could use.
"Ooh! Lookie! It's a tiger! Can you talk to them?" The child asked, Razz.
"I will try. I don't think so though, I only talk to my race." Razz thought, walking up to the bars where the tiger was located at. He spoke with it.
"What did he say?"
"She not a he is that. She said that there's a small rattlesnake in the corner of the cage and she can't reach it, to milk it for her kits." Razz explained.
"Rattlesnake? I can get it!" The child cheered, causing people to stare at the large lizard and girl.
"Wait no!" Razz and Van both said in unison.
Too late though, she was already near the cage and before she even touched the snake, it morphed into a large snake with twin tails and spikes on its back.
"Evo! Evo ALERT! ALL PERSONAL CALL PROVIDENCE FOR THE Evo!" The alarm rang out through the area.
"Providence? What is that?" The child asked, not knowing that the large snake like Evo was slipping through the bars and now is over directly the female.
"LOOK OUT KID!" Razz cried out, too late as the snake wrapped itself around the small child.
Van Kleiss looked in horror at the event infront of him, grasping a large pipe from the ground; he swung it at the beast.
The Evo didn't even flinch only he looked at the child and opened his mouth. The snake Evo put the child near his mouth, opening his jaws all the way.
"He's gonna eat Rain!" Van Kleiss replied.
"Rain?" Razz asked.
"Yeah, since she likes rain and thunderstorms she will be named Rain. Her nickname can be sparky."
Something odd happened when a man in a green suit jumped in and sliced the snake in half. He caught the little girl. "Mission accomplished. The Evo was eliminated but there seems to be a small girl. That Evo only attacks other Evo's so…. This child must be one. Yeah? Alright…. So you want me to…" The man said, holding Rain.
"Providence! Shoot! Let me get Rain before they take her!" Van Kleiss yelled, using his vines to wrap around Rain.
The man looked at the vines, then to the man using the vines near the large lizard. "Looks like we have more Evo's tograb."
