*DEEPBREATH* MERRYCHRISTMAS(or whatever you celebrate)! This is a Secret Santa present for cxrdevil (Arty on the Providence Playground forum). I hope I do him proud! He wanted Rex getting mad or even; some people not acting like he's a human being. Basically, The Hunter episode lol.
My first thought was to make this extremly angsty... but then I said 'NAH'.
Merry Christmas, Arty! Hope you like! ^.^ Also, a huge thanks to TheEndReaper for setting this all up. It was very thoughtful for the GenRex community ^.^ Hope you have a Merry Christmas, too.
And a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to everyone else! (Everybody has fun! lol) If you don't celebrate for the holidays, then Happy December! (Who cares? So long as it's happy.)
This is pretty much doubling as my GenRex Christmas fic, cause we know that everyone and their mom has done one, so I figured I'd hop on the wagon.
ATTENTION: I broke this up into a few chapters so it'll be easier to read ^.^ It is all updated and finished, so read on.

The night sky glittered with stars, as the snow continued to fall in small flakes. The full moon hung bright in the sky and glistened off of the Evo's spikes. It's two arms dangled at it's sides, as it's slowly walked down the street, looking like a moving tree. It stood at about seven feet and it's progress was slow.
It's description, however, betrayed it's true power and speed. Thankfully, Agent Six could catch on quick.
The Evo looked up at him again, and swung it's arm in the air to throw it's spikes, fast as lightning. Six quickly stopped his run to the Evo and deflected the spikes with his katana, as if they were bullets.
The last spike, he hit back, finally managing to land a hit on the Evo. It's own spike stabbed into it's shoulder. While the Evo cringed from the pain, Six took the opportunity to run for it again, his trench coat flying out behind him.
This just seemed to make it mad. It looked back to him and used it's other arm to throw more spikes.
Six managed to duck in time, throwing his own katana to the creature. The Evo moved it's head barely an inch and was able to dodge the attack.
That's when Rex decided to swoop in.
"Hola, Evo!," he screamed over the wind, as he dived to the earth with his Boogie Pack. He jerked up before hitting the ground and flew straight to the Evo, the turbines snapping away and firing off.
The Evo, apparently stunned by the new player, took the hit head on, being thrown against a building. Rex retracted the Boogie Pack and slid to a stop of the freezing blacktop, Bobo slumping up beside him.
"Where were you?," a stoic, demanding voice asked from behind him, that could only be Agent Six.
Rex shrugged, looking over to his handler and lifting his goggles from his eyes. "Christmas shopping, duh."
"And your communicator?," Six continued.
Rex dug it out of his ear, "I got it. See?"
Six paused. "Then... why didn't you answer the calls?"
"Uh, I was ignoring you," he said simply, putting it back in his ear.
Six's eyes rolled behind his shades.
Bobo stepped in front of the two, smirking at the giant hole in the wall and the stirring Evo. "Sleepin' Beauty's awake. Care to make this quick, cheif?"
"Well, of course," Rex said, his left arm covering in armor, "Still got a lot of shopping to do."
Six looked at him again. "You realize that Christmas is two days away?"
The Slam Cannon appeared from his arm, eating the pavement behind him. "Your point?"
"Nevermind," Six said. If the kid didn't see it, why bother?
The Evo finally stood and Rex quickly took aim. Before it could make any moves, he fired, hitting it square in the chest on the first hit. The Evo was knocked back against the wall, but on the second fire, it jumped out of the way.
All eyes watched it go up.
Rex almost blanched at the scene, not realizing it could do something like that. "Um-"
"Move!," Six ordered, gaining a quick reaction from the others.
They scattered and the Evo crashed down, creating a small crater, where they once were.
Six quickly found that the katana that he had thrown was now lying at his feet. He kicked it into the air, grabbed it's hilt, and flicked the other out, too.
Upon the sound, the Evo snapped what appeared to be it's head over to him, just like he wanted. He rushed the Evo and it prepared to strike, when Rex latched onto it's back.
"Let's get this over with," he said, pressing his hand against it's neck, letting his nanites pour in and extract the one's infecting the host. Once the light died away, Rex fell on his back, the cured person falling on top of him, unconcious.
Rex was in the middle of wiggling out from underneath the person, when Six walked up to him. "Tada!," he said, throwing his arms up. Once he realized that there would be no reaction from the man, he continued the wiggling until he was free. He stood, dusting the snow off of himself, and heard whispering not far away.
Turning, he noticed two pretty girls, about his age, poking their heads around the corner of a building, staring at the scene.
Rex blinked, making sure he was registering the situation right. Once he realized, that, yep, they were looking at him, he busted out a huge grin. "Mi bellas," he waved to the girls, then puffed out his chest, popping the collar on his jacket, "It's cool. I handle these things daily. No big deal, ya know." The teen shrugged.
Six rolled his eyes, again.
Rex continued, not missing a beat, "Course, there might be another one around here somewhere." He walked a little closer to them, offering his grin. "Care to be escorted, ladies?"
One of them ducked around the corner, running away. The other was a little dumbstruck by his act, but quickly ran after her friend.
He just blinked after them. "What's the deal?"
"Maybe they were struck by your beauty," Bobo offered, sarcastically.
Rex nodded, "Yeah, that's probably it."
The only thing that stopped the agent from actually face palming was that their newly cured Evo friend was stirring awake. Rex noticed this too, and went over to help Six pick the guy off of the freezing ground.
The guy stood, a little dazed, and blinked himself back to the real world.
Rex opened his mouth to say something, but the guy's eyes grew wide and he quickly started to run away, leaving the kid to blink after him.
"You're welcome?," he said, watching the man get farther away. He turned to Six, "Do I have something on my face?"
The agent shook his head, but Bobo cut in. "Yeah, cheif. Kinda thought you knew about it," he said, then motioned with his hand from his forehead to his chin, "It's only right here, though. Has kinda a pink tinge to it."
"What?," Rex screamed and ran to the nearest window. "You lie, monkey!," he said, looking back, "Thank you for being honest, Six."
Six raised an eyebrow, "Welcome?"
The teen then put his goggles back in place. "Well, if there's no more Evos to kick around, I think I'll just get back to-"
"Actually-," Six pointed down the street, about to tell him about another Evo that was running around, but he was quickly cut off.
"See ya later, Six!," Rex quickly said, then, busting out the Boogie Pack, quickly took off, Bobo barely managing to grip one of the wings in time.
The agent blinked, watching them fly away. "Figures," he sighed.
o0o
Rex touched down in front of the mall, for the second time that day. "Ok, monkey," he said, retracting the wings, "Who's next on the list?"
"Your lovable simian sidekick," Bobo grinned.
"Ha!," the teen said, walking towards the entrance, "Like I'm gonna get you something while your with me."
"But you are planning to get me something?"
"Depends," the kid said, thinking, "What am I getting?"
"Ha!," the chimp said, climbing on Rex's shoulders as he walked in the mall. "Ok, so who have you bought for already?"
"Well," Rex started thinking again, for real this time, "I got Circe a few things."
"A few?"
"Well, I got her a teddy bear, some chocolates, girls like chocolates, a necklace-"
"Woah, woah, wait," Bobo shook his head, "Who have you bought for other than Circe?"
"The Doc," Rex quickly answered, looking at all the stores.
"And what did you get her?"
"Well, I got her a teddy bear, some chocolates, a cute necklace, a braclet-"
"Rex," the chimp sighed, face palming, "Do you even have any money left?"
"Yeah, a little," he said, "I was thinking of getting the Doc-"
"Stop. Stop right there," Bobo waved his hand, "Have you bought for someone other than the ladies?"
Rex blinked. "No, not really."
Bobo sighed, "Well, maybe you should do that and then get them... some more presents."
"I guess so," the teen said, looking in a few of the windows. "I already know what I'm getting you, though. I have no idea what to get Six, he's way too hard to buy for. And Noah? I have no idea."
"Well, let's get mine and work from there."
"Ha ha. No." Rex ignored the monkey and started thinking what to get for Noah, figuring he would probably be easier to shop for than his nanny.
What was Noah into? Basketball. It was hard to admit, but Rex didn't know all that much about the sport. He liked it and he would like to think that he was killer at it, but it was just... a no go. Alright, well, what else?
Ok, ok, what would Rex want for Christmas? He figured that since they were buds, whatever they wanted might be about the same. Ok, so, what was that? Other than a car? And a new game system? And something that was a little closer within his price range?
"Gift card!," Rex screamed, scaring the now silent chimp.
"What?," Bobo asked, obviously lost.
"Gift card," the teen quickly explained, "We're getting Noah a gift card."
"We?," but Rex was already on the run.
The teen had a new problem. What store?
