A review afterwards would sound nice.
"come on, you'll like them, I promise." Rex told Noah as they landed the (unauthorized) providence jet.
"are you sure Rex? You just told us they're a gang of EVOs. A GANG OF EVOS! the last time we took the girls and met an EVO, it was a homicidal bunny that nearly killed us." Noah complained.
"don't worry, they're fine. They won't attack you for no reason." Rex assured him, then thinks for a minute. "unless they were under mind control or something." this do not remove existing qualms.
They landed three miles away from Hong Kong. "why are we here?" Claire asked. Rex smiles, "you get to meet sqwydd first. He's cool, he told me to meet him here. Hope we're not late." he pulls out his cell and texts him. 'I'm here, where r u?' the response said 'waiting 4 half hour dummy'. Annie snickers behind him. He opens the bay door and Noah exits first, then Claire. As soon as Rex was on the edge Annie remembers to grab her purse. The strap gets caught on the lever. She pulls, the lever moves and so does the door. Rex steps out on thin air and land squarely on his face. "ow..." the door reopens to expel a "sorry!". The door then lands on Rex. "ow, someone help me..." he looks up to see Claire's horrified expression, Noah's helping hand, and sqwydd smirking while taking a picture. He glares and hears another "sorry" from above. Several tugs later with everyone's help Rex got free. "she's fun, let me guess, your date?" sqwydd dripped sarcasm. "no. now, where's the party you told me about?" Rex asked between winces. Sqwydd makes a 'follow me' motion.
The party was held in a series of caves. The music was loud and the performers were awesome. A man who looked like he walked strait out of the 70's nearly jumped for joy when he saw them. "Sqwydd! Where have you been? Your acts is on in three minutes! Oh, you brought more guests! And Rex! How good to see you again!" he pulled Rex into a bear hug and kissed him on each cheek. "you must introduce your friends to me later. Enjoy the party!" he called back as he walked sqwydd down a cave. Rex wiped his face and followed the sounds of the party. They rocked out and watched sqwydd's fire and ink act. It was awesome.
To Rex the party ended too soon, mostly Annie's fault. She tried to play with the fire backstage and started a blaze. The fire department quickly put it out and disbanded everyone. Rex and sqwydd both ran in and pulled out anyone who had gotten trapped. To which they were both congratulated and scolded.
They walked in silence to the jet. Annie was feeling sorry, Claire was trying to comfort, Noah was awed and worried, sqwydd was... something (nobody could tell what), and Rex was suffering from a large ego. "leave the jet here, we can walk three miles or so, unless your skinny American legs can't go that far." sqwydd taunted, getting his desired response. "oh yeah? I can walk that far. How about you guys... and girls?" Noah retorted. He turned to see Rex form his legs into his hover bike thing (I can't remember what it's called). "sorry, I got a ride. See you there!" the girls climbed on and Rex took off. Leaving Noah with a amused green tentacled boy full of sarcasm. "what just happened?" he wondered as Rex crashed in the distance.
Despite his bravado earlier Rex didn't get it there first. Sqwydd arrived at the door of their hangout carrying Noah like a sack of books. Then plopped him down like it too. Circe answered, and let them in. "Noah, right?" she asked. "what's left of me. Ow, my feet." his legs were practically numb. Sqwydd made a comment, in Chinese, to the two other EVO's in the room. The cloth-like boy giggled while the grasshopper girl helped massage his feet. "what did he say?" Noah whimpered. "he was picking on you for not being able to walk this far." she said, rolling her eyes. She smiles at him, "my name's Cricket, that is Tuck, and Circe seems to know you already. Are you one of the friends that Rex said he was bringing?" Noah sharply sucked in some air then nodded. She worked quietly for a few minutes before a soft knock came to the door. Before it fell down on Tuck, who answered it.
Rex and the girls arrived. Rex was limping and leaning on Claire, refusing to let Annie touch him. Rex prayed to who ever could hear him that she didn't accidentally kill all his friends. Annie knocked on the door and started pushing on it as it opened. It came off it's hinges and fell, squishing whomever was opening it. Judging by who he didn't see, it could only be Tuck, thank goodness. The EVO reformed himself and smiled. "do it again." Noah's and the girl's jaws dropped. "what?" he asked. Noah turned to Cricket and whispered, "that's Annie, her nickname is the blond widow." Cricket seemed shocked for a second, then reassured him, "Tuck can handle himself. I'm just worried that sqwydd will get hurt and stubbornly refuse to let me know."
Claire saw Noah getting a massage, by a cute female EVO. She wasn't sure who she was jealous of. She helped Rex to the couch then asked to take her shoes off. Cricket nodded, "I'll do you when I'm done here. What happened to Rex?" Claire removed her second skin as Rex painfully pointed at Annie. Annie asked Tuck if she could use the bathroom. "go ahead." he smiled as Annie disappeared, "she's nice, I like her." everyone except sqwydd stared wide-eyed. "what?"
anyone else gonna guess who's getting shipped here?
