Gone

"Six, we have a problem," said Holiday as she looked at the many screens in front of her. "There is a brand new type of EVO. It has actual intelligence and it is attacking New York City. Nothing we do will stop it. We need Rex back. Find Rex, take him to New York City, and convince him to fight." "That is not going to be easy." Six said, "I know that is why I chose you to find him. Look as long as it takes. Ask everyone in the world if you have to," said Holiday "I will search the whole entire universe if I have to," replied Six "I am sure you will," Holiday said softly as tears ran down her cheeks, "I am sure you will."

"See! I told you he cheats at cards and did you listen? No! You go on and play cards against him and you make me play too." Cricket said, "Chop!" "Thump!" Cricket, Squid and Tuk look up from their card game and see the man standing in the doorway. "Sorry about interrupting your card game, but I need a favor. Help me find Rex." Six said, "Help you find Rex? No way. We do not need to find Rex-," said Tuk "Because?" said Six, cutting Tuk off. "Because I am right here, Six," said Rex from his spot standing in the doorway. Six turned around and said "Nice to see you, Rex." "Nice to see you too, Six" Rex replied with a smile. "So what brings you here?" Rex asked. "Bing!" "Sorry Rex but I need to take this," Six said "Hey no need to worry about me, old man. I can handle myself." Rex said. Six pressed a button on his earpiece. "Do you have Rex?" asked Holiday "Yes," replied Six "Good, get him over here quickly-" Holiday said. "Roar!" "Aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!" Holiday screamed in terror as the EVO smacked her so hard that she flew backwards for a block. She then slammed into a building and fell to the pavement unconscious. "Holiday! Holiday what is your status? Holiday!" Six yelled into the earpiece Rex ran over to Six and asked "Six, what is the matter? " Six ignored him and called HQ. "Holiday is down! Repeat. Holiday is down!" Six yelled into the earpiece. As Rex heard Six said those seven words that he thought he would never hear, his eyes were full with fear and disbelief and with tears running down his face both he and Six ran to the ship and blasted off heading for New York City.
