Scarred Wings

by Vullet

Stolen from my AO3. It was suppose to just be a simple mission. Find and fight the E.V.O, cure it, call it a day. And this simple task turns out to be the start of a massive problem. Because honestly, when the sixth most dangerous man on Earth becomes an E.V.O and the hero saving everyone is emotionally attached, it's not going to be easy for Rex. At all. discontinued

2. Six

"Six..." Rex stated, shocked yet happy. So this is what Six had become...it was strange...but it looked much better than many others he had fought. He didn't want to get too comfortable with his old mentor though, he doubted the E.V.O was still in control. "If you remember me, if you'll let me, let me try to cure you," he stated, wanting his friend to suffer as little as possible. The bird-like thing held still, not moving at all. Rex pressed his hand against the large creature, hoping Six was curable, if this was even him.

"Please, don't fail me now," Rex muttered, directed towards his nanites. For a second it seemed to be working, and then, it stopped. It had worked...until Rex noticed the problem. Yes, it was human for a second, but it quickly retook it's form. Rex was disappointed. Six...was an incurable E.V.O. No matter how hard he tried, Rex couldn't fix him at this state.

"It's fine, Rex. I'm going to be stuck like this anyways. I'm still in control, for the most part," Six spoke to his friend. His tone seemed sad. Did he feel insecure about this form? Rex had no memory of when he went E.V.O, but he imagined his response would be confused as well.

"Six..." Rex spoke, regaining his stance. "Are you...why did you run away? If you had just said, we wouldn't have hurt you."

"I'm not who, or what, I use to be, Rex. I've changed much more than this in the past from a mental view. I don't want to lose control and hurt you," Six stated, looking down. He cared so much about Rex and the rest of Providence, even if he was no longer one of them. He felt guilty for even going E.V.O, and he really didn't want to be around Rex any longer. That still didn't explain the fact he attacking just for Rex to be sent in so they could talk.

That was when multiple Providence soldiers arrived. They were preparing to fire in order to 'help' their secret weapon when Rex proceeded to build the B.F.S. He slammed the giant sword into the ground, getting the attention of those that came. "Do not hurt him!" Rex spoke, in his most stable tone possible.

"This...is Six."
