(Rex/OC) Ah, nanites! Well, they can't be all bad, right? But for this stranger who "saved" Rex, Six, AND Noah, nanites bring about the strangest thing. Problem is, Providence wants to thank her, but can't find her! Not to mention, Noah sneaks Rex into a high school for a day.... only to find out that Rex has a crush.... oh, yes, life's "great" right now!


---Providence---

Six was standing by the door, waiting for Rex to come out. It was the bathroom after all.

Holiday walked by and then stopped. She took a step back and looked up at Six. "What are you doing?"

"Waiting for Rex."

"Why?"

"He's sick."

"Sick my butt!" Rex threw the door open and then glared at Six. "You poisoned me!"

"It was only milk," Six retorted, grabbing Rex's outstretched arm. "Let's go, squeaky. Noah's waiting outside."

"Where's he going?"

"Me? I'm going to see a movie with Noah. Six is coming to 'keep an eye' on me." Rex grinned at Holiday. "No worries. I plan on being home before dark!"

---Theater---

Noah looked over his shoulder at Six and waved at him. He and Rex vanished into the theater.

Noah was about to ask if Rex wanted popcorn when he noticed Rex's attention was elsewhere. Looking around Rex, he saw her.

She was standing alone, staring down one of the hallways to the theater sections. But it was the bruise on her arm that had caught Rex's attention. It was shaped like a hand, gripping just enough to cause bruising.

Her hair was a soft brown and she had freckles all along her face. There were little streaks of red in her otherwise hazel eyes. She wore a short-sleeved, white shirt over a black, long-sleeve that was pulled up to her elbows. Her jeans were torn at the heels and showed signs of wear. Her sneakers were old and worn. But she looked quite fine.

Noah looked at Rex, who looked back.

The girl was coming over to them. She looked unhappy and ignored everyone. She bumped into Rex and quickly backed away. "I'm sorry," she said. Her voice was cracking, like she'd cry at any second for no reason.

Rex just smiled. "It's okay." She was turning away when Rex touched her shoulder. "Hey, you dropped your ticket."

Noah and Rex realized she was going to he same movie.

"Hey, wanna sit with us?"

She gasped and then shook her head. "Oh, no, I couldn't do that." She flushed when Rex smiled.

"Nah, you wouldn't be a burden. Maybe you can just sit there and drool like Noah does."

"Hey! I don't drool. I gawk." Noah punched Rex's arm.

"Oh?" Rex suddenly imitated a zombie. "Wha evah 'ou say."

"Gross! Stop that, weirdo!"

They stopped making fun of each other when they both heard her giggle. Rex took his turn to blush, but he quickly shook it off.

"Okay! So, we're all gonna go see the movie!" He struck his heroic pose and Noah rapped him on the shoulder. "Okay, so what? You want some popcorn?"

She shook her head. "No, thank you, though."

Noah saw her eyes change colors for a second. They had been hazel with streaks of red that flashed royal purple with shards of cobalt spicing it up. He shook his head and looked again. They were hazel....

---an hour later---

Six returned to the theater, only to find that Rex and Noah were playing video games....

With a stranger.

He slowly advanced on the trio before she looked at him. Her purple eyes glared deeply at him and he knew who she was. He shrugged and then her face became fearful.

"EVO!"

Rex ripped away from the video game as the EVO came up to Six.

Noah, knowing he was both trapped and useless, plastered himself to the wall. He watched as their new friend, whom they hadn't even bothered asking what her name was, and Rex were separated from both Noah on one side and Six on the other.

Rex looked at her and quickly asked; "By the way, never asked your name. What is it?"

She blinked. "Are you for real?" She jumped over the EVO like it was nothing more than a crack in the sidewalk. When she landed on the other side, she scooped up Six's twin swords and held them as if she were a professional fighter. "Oi! This way, bucko!" She slowly moved back, her feet playing across the tiled floor. She finally had the EVO at her own advantage and she jumped.

She slashed through him before he fell beside her. She threw the swords aside and gently laid her hands on his stomach. "Hush, I know it's not you." She smiled sadly before she began to hum a tune. It soothed the EVO until it started to transform.

The EVO returned to it's human state, fully-clothed, all his age still there, and totally out cold.

She smiled before she remembered the other three. She stood up and bowed to them. "Sorry for this."

Rex raised an eyebrow before he realized she was just like him. "Hey, wait, are you an EVO?"

She gasped and withdrew. "Sorry!" She twisted to the side an jumped trough a hole just barely large enough for her that had formed in the glass from the EVO. She twisted and landed outside before she dashed off.

Six and Rex ran outside and looked around, but all they saw was a couple of kids and an old lady walking. Rex scratched his head as the sidewalk cleared.

"She is like you, Rex. The difference is what Providence did to both of you."
