A/N: The latest story from Mainframe!These will have spoilers (for those who haven't finished season 3). This takes place right after my previous story; Old Stories from Mainframe (this is the sequel). I'm trying a different kind of writing style than my previous story, so keep in mind the new 'keep in mind's and such. This story will go back and forth between Enzo and AndrAIa and what's happening in Mainframe at the same time (roughly). So here is the start of the story, from Enzo's and AndrAIa's POV. Enjoy and please review!

EDIT: I did change some of this chapter, thanks for the review Penguin Lord002, hopefully this makes more sense now/works better.

Keep in mind:

Milli-nano = second

Nano = minute

Second = hour

Minute/cycle = day

Hour = year

Italics means they are thinking.

It was the worse moment of her life. AndrAIa could only watch, helpless, behind a glass window, as Enzo was crushed, in both body and spirit. She was able to come to her senses long enough to change her and Frisket's icons to game sprite mode. Ironic, how the thing that caused so many in Mainframe to recoil in fear is what can save them now.

As the game dissovled around them, AndrAIa and Frisket ran to Enzo's side. The game restored Enzo to the state before the final blow, so Enzo was weak and his eye was injured. He slipped in and out of consciousness, and AndrAIa was worried about what would happen when the game next downloaded.

Not evena nano later, a new game was forming around them. It seemed to be a military space game, with game sprites, binomes and the user running around jumping ridiculusly high and firing lasers (among other types of weapons). AndrAIa pulled Enzo off to the side and had to make sure Frisket didn't wander off to case the user. Once she saw that the binomes were going to win, she switched everyone's icons back to data sprite mode. While in the game the binomes hadn't taken much notice of the trio, but once the game left and the trio stayed behind, the binomes became curious and gathered near them.

After taking a moment to make sure they weren't in imminent danger, AndrAIa looked to the binomes and asked for medical help. Once the binomes saw Enzo's condition, they escorted them through the city to the Principal Office. On the way there, Enzo woke up a little in the market place they were passing through.

"Weapons' upgrade? With a special eye, one has complete control over Gun! The latest and greatest in virus fighting tools!" A one binome, dressed in a brown vest with a bandana covering his head, shouted to the passing group. He only fell silent once he saw the state of Enzo. The group left the slightly stunned binomes in their wake as they raced to the system's Principal Office.

Half a cycle later, Enzo was still asleep. He was laying on a bed in a white room, with only a chair for any other furniture. The chair was pulled up next to Enzo and AndrAIa was sitting in it keeping watch over him.

Please be ok, Enzo, please be ok. You just have to wake up, I don't know what we'll do if you don't wake up soon... AndrAIa thought as she stared at Enzo. She sat up straighter as she noticed Enzo beginning to stir. Frisket was laying in the corner of the room and stood slightly as he noticed his owner begging to sit up.

"Enzo! Are you alright?" She asked while she cupped the side of Enzo's face with her hand.

Enzo reached up and laid his hand over hers while he looked about the room and nodded. He was trying to think why everything look weird - "Your eye hasn't fully healed but should be better soon! The binomes in this system were kind enough to help you after that fight with the user..." AndrAIa's voice trailed off as Enzo stiffened while the memories came rushing back...

a fiery hand... a hard thud with sudden sharp pain... AndrAIa and Frisket banging on the glass...'a special eye'... 'total control'... 'of gun!'...

Enzo gave a small shake as he untesned and gave AndrAIa a small smile. "I'll be OK. Are you and Frisket alright?" He asked as Frisket came over and jumped up onto the bed. Both Enzo and AndrAIa gave a small laugh as the dog furiously check over his master and licked him clean.

"We're both fine. We've game hopped to a new system, Silver City. Changing our icons out of game sprite mode allowed us to stay with the system instead of the game." AndrAIa explained as she and Enzo reassured Frisket. Enzo gave a grunt as he sorted through the rest of his memories as well as the new information.

Just then a one binome came through the only door with a portable organizer in his hands. He wore a white doctor's coat with a stethoscope around his neck.

"Ah, glad to see the patien is awake. How are you feelin' lad? The eye patch will need to stay on a couple more minutes to make sure the eye is fully healed." He said as he walked over to the two sprites.

Enzo assured the doctor that he felt fine and after a few last tests, the doctor nodded and allowed the sprites to leave.

AndrAIa tried to get Enzo in better spirits and chatted more than usual about everything. Just as she was going to give up and take Enzo back to the doctor to find out what was wrong with him, they came across the bazaar and he showed more interest of his surroundings. Though she was a little nervous for Enzo when he found a weapon's dealer and started talking with the binome. AndrAIa gave a shrug to Frisket, who had looked at her concerned about this new quiet Enzo, then the two of them proceeded to watch their surroundings while listening to Enzo and the binome's talk.

Once they were finished talking about upgrades, Enzo turned to Frisket and AndrAIa, the former got a pat on the head while the latter he grabbed into a hug.

"Sorry AndrAIa, I hope you weren't really worried. Let's find some place to stay for the night." Enzo said as he pulled out of the hug. He game a small smile to AndrAIa, which she returned a little hesitantly. Enzo then grabbed AndrAIa's hand and whistled to Frisket and lead the way to the nearest inn. They only had a few units, since this was completely unexpected development, and could only afford a single room. Both sprites blushed but they had to work with what they had.

Enzo and AndrAIa argued for a few nanos about who should sleep in the only bed in the room, while Frisket curled up in the corner. They eventually compromised and shared the bed, each keeping to their side. Both were nervous at first, but AndrAIa was tired from keeping watch over Enzo as he healed and fell asleep first. After awhile, Enzo tried to leave the bed but every time he tried AndrAIa shifted or woke up partially and glared at him.

Enzo gave up with a quiet sigh and settled in with his thoughts to keep him company during the night. As if she knew he gave up trying to leave, AndrAIa fell even deeper asleep.

I was completely useless! My 'skills' were useless, glitch is nearly useless, my eye is useless, and I was useless afterwards, for a whole cycle no less! I'll get that upgrade and make it up to AndrAIa and Frisket. But first we need units... If I weren't so useless it wouldn't be so bad... and while thinking along these dark paths, Enzo fell into an fitful sleep, making plans for the morning and trying no to think about those left behind.

And so ends chapter 1. Please let me know how it is, I'm trying to add more details. I may have to go back and revise this chapter (add details and so on)... but hopefully no one minds how this is and I don't have to change much. Next chapter is from Mainframe's POV. It should be ready within a week or two. Enjoy!
