Two questions today, Remember to keep sending them in!

"The Other Guy are you from Australia?"

Yes I've said that at least ten times now.

"Vicky if Foxy were to die would you hook up with C-16?"

"No I think of C-16 as a brother, I would never do that. Right C-16?" Said Vicky.

"What is love?" C-16 asked.

Chapter 4

-~[Mike's POV]~-

A day later Relyin showed up.

He had changed and boy how he had changed.

His face was mostly hidden by a black hood that came to a point just above his nose. Black armour with fewer yellow high lights. I could see a beard, that circled around his mouth, it was well kept. He had changed his weapons, now he only carried one blade on his back. My guess a katana. He seemed be wearing a duster over his armour, with added gold plates over his shoulders and forearm.

A small black and yellow quad copter followed him around.

He had chosen to meet me out in front of my home, I knew Fritz and Susan were watching from her bed room's window. Relyin gracefully slide forward, his walking smooth and artful. He had changed amazingly. He was a little taller and had developed quite a bit of muscle. Relyin wasn't a boy no more, he was a man. Relyin stood right in front of me now. I wondered if I should fear for my life or shake his hand. Stopping only feet away from me he paused.

"Michael - it's good to see you."

Relyin offered his right gloved hand. I smiled and shock it. He smiled. When a grasped his hand I was met with a joyful hug.

"Look Im sorry for everything I said about you." Relyin said releasing me from the light hug.

"Just bad blood - we are better then that aren't we?"

Relyin smirked. He flicked off his hood. His face had sharpened a lot. His features were more mannish and his hair had a yellow strip running through the fringe. One of his ears had a small ear piece firmly planted in his ear. A pair of reflective gold sun glasses blocked his eyes.

"Now, I hope this one of your texting me." Said Relyin.

"Wait, did he refer to you by name?" I asked.

"Yes," Relyin said tapping his wrist.

A blue hologram generated around his wrist and he showed me a almost identical conversation of text messages that me and Paul had experienced.

"Yeah, I replaced the Wrist Mounted Computer..." He muttered.

"What's the hologram thing?" I asked.

"A prototype of a WMC I maybe selling to the public." Relyin said turning it off.

"But, Mike it's pretty bad if a organisation like the Time Line Regulators can't track this bastard down." Relyin added changing back on topic. Let me refresh you all Relyin was a TLR, a time traveler who fixed time for a living. He originally came from the 37th century. Relyin wasn't exactly human either, he was a energy being who wore a human image to blend in.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah, it's actually the main reason I'm here... Taylor and I have been looking around." Relyin gestured to the drone, so I assumed it's name was Taylor. I had would have thought he would have been with another C-16. He once told me there were at least forty C-16 bodies.

"To tell the truth I was kind of expecting you to have another C-16 with you, not the that..." I pointed at the drone. Relyin smiled. "Yeah, it's just that in the past few decades I've found Taylor much more useful for me. It's just ever since Zach's death I found myself working by myself by choice..." Relyin admitted. He began to speak again, "C-16 reported to me saying you've had a kid."

"Yeah, she's twelve."

"Could I meet her?"

"Sure." I said.

Relyin followed me into my home. The drone hovered silently following Relyin. Fritz's reaction to Relyin was a respectful nod, which was returned by Relyin. Susan stood in a little bit of an awe. Relyin smirked and kneeled down so she looked down at him.

"Now Sarah, could you look after my blade?"

Relyin drew his blade and gently placed it in Sarah's hands. Instead of bothering why he knew my daughters name I went with it, it's Relyin I'm talking about. Just before our fight he was so determined to know the name of my girl friend, now my wife, he had spied on me for a week.

"Sure," Sarah held the blade by the grip and gently waved it around.

"Careful, Shadowanimum that sharp makes steel look like paper to a blowtorch." Relyin joked.

"So Fritz how you been?" Relyin asked.

Fritz smiled, splitting his lips and revealing his sharp crooked teeth.

"Good, you?" fritz asked in return.

"Little sore - got shot in the shoulder, still feeling it about here." Relyin tapped his shoulder, showing Fritz about where.

"Alright let's cut to the chase, Fritz tell him." I said.

Relyin pulled off his duster and lied it on my couch, he sat next to it. It revealed his right arms heavily tattooed sleeve that stretch from the shoulder pad down to his forearm guard. The left arm wasn't tattooed but had a few bead bands strung around his bicep.

"So Relyin, we are in deep sh... We have a problem. We need to have you mentioned in a news report to keep us getting killed." I liked how Fritz didn't swear in front of my little girl but I didn't like how he came out straight and told her we were in danger. Sarah seemed to snap the question out.

"Some one wants to kill you guys?"

"Yes - I would like to see them try. Poor idiots don't know who they picked a fight with!" Relyin said jokingly, attempting to calm Susan.

"Mike some one wants to kill you?" Kate said appearing from our bed room.

"Yes..." I admitted.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Stated Kate.

"Well, I didn't want you to worry." I replied.

"To be fare, your fine. Fritz and I could fight off a army." Relyin threw into the conversation.

Keep sighed deeply, "Mike, can we talk in private..."

"Look, everyone shut up and listen to the two million year old in the room. You two stop fighting. Miguel, Just don't mention where or when I'm from or about my job and we have a deal, need anything just call me." Relyin got up and threw the duster back on.

"Two million?" Sarah asked.

"Yep." Relyin snatched the blade back and sheathed it.

He was out the door before I or Fritz could say good bye to him.

-~[Freddy's POV]~-

Mike came into the pizzeria with Fritz. My eyes widened when I saw his daughter. He was right she had grown since I last had seen her. Mike didn't look as happy as normal, I would call him depressed and tired.

"Did you see Relyin?" C-16 asked.

"Yes - he has argeed to our idea and sadly won't be following us down the rabbit hole this time." Fritz sighed.

"So what's the plan them?" I asked.

"Well, we start rehearsals and organise the data we gathered yesterday. Right now I'm thinking, Me, C-16, Freddy and Vicky take the interview." Mike thought aloud.

"Why not us?" Eddy asked.

"Yeah." Bonnie asked.

"Well, Eddy maybe but Freddy, Vicky and C-16 offer the best of each world. Freddy gives a honest answer. C-16 states the facts, no matter how bad they are. Vicky is someone that people can emphasise with. I have charisma to link it together." Mike explained.

"Having me on live television is sure to raise more questions." C-16 added.

"You're our proof so they know that we ain't crazy." Fritz added.

C-16 nodded.

"The rest of us which watch on from the TV." Mike added.

"Mike what about Anderson?" I asked.

"What about the cop?" Fritz snarls.

"Well, instead of C-16 we can have Anderson up with you." I explained.

"I don't know Freddy, I would rather have a unstoppable juggernaut then a cop."

I think C-16 took minor offence to being called a juggernaut. His fin ears lowered slightly and his gaze stared down on Mike. Vicky nudged him and whispered something that cheered him up. Foxy heard it and chuckled quietly.

"The only problem I see is, well, they either react like me or want to destroy us." Sarah said quiet.

"She has a point - what Is you name mini person?" C-16 asked.

Sarah looked at me with the look of 'what is this guy on?' Kind of look.

"It's Sarah."

"I am Combat Model 16 or C-16 for short." C-16 offered his hand awkwardly. Sarah grasped and as she let go C-16 didn't. It made me smile. She finally pulled her hand away giving the drone who was frozen staring at her, a confused smile. C-16 silently slide back into his regular standing pose. Vicky smirked.

"They can either react like Susan or they could react like Hamish." Mike added.

"Hamish?" Sarah asked.

"He was a night guard that Mike hired, C-16 scared him to death." Bonnie said playfully.

Bonnie was actually being polite for once. But then the Bonnie I truly knew leaned in and whispered in a sinister tone.

"Your next,"

Chica slapped him.

"What was that for?"

Chica crossed her arms and replied, "because your being a ass."

"Chica watch your mouth, no swearing around Sarah." Foxy teased.

Mike stood there smiling.

"Alright every one, hang around for the night. Tomorrow we aren't open because our news special will be on." Mike said, "Sarah and I will be heading home."

"Me too," Fritz said playfully,

"Dad, can I stay?"

"No Sarah."

"But I could sleep here, it's the weekend."

"She's welcome to stay," I said.

"That's not your call Freddy." Mike scowled.

"Mike she will be amply protected and I guaranty that she will be safe." C-16 assured. Mike took one look down at his daughter who was doing the puppy eyes. I laughed when Vicky kneeled down beside her and copied her facial expression.

"Fine, you have your phone. If you need me call me." Mike gave in.

"Thanks dad."
