me:HEY DE!

De:what? I was in the middle of spying on Beck!

Me:I need you to make me some cookies!

De:why...?

Me:I promised 2theSky I would give her virtual cookies! and considering your on the grid...who better to make virtual cookies!

De:of all people to be my author... ten bucks a cookie!

me:it will be worth it!


Beck's been gone for a while now. I saw him as the renegade. Tron (or who I assume is Tron...still blocked...) kicked his butt! I am so going to rub that in! I see him coming. "Beck!" I yell.

"What?" He says. I run up to him.

"I know your the Renegade." I say. You should see his face! It's HILARIOUS!

"You can't tell anyone! I can not say enough-"Beck gets cut off by me.

"OK shut up. I am not telling anyone. I promise. You know the portal?"

"Yeah...why...?"

"Me." I say.

"That was you?"

"Yup."

"Wow..."

"Lot of secrets today huh?"

"Yeah..."

"You got creamed!"

"Way to rub it in..."he says

"Oh, I know."I say,with a flip of my hair.

"Beck!" yells Mara.

"Hey guys." I yell back. Mara and Zed come over

"We were wondering if you wanted to come with us to play a game of hyper ball with us?" Asks Mara.

"Um sure, why not?" says Beck. After approximately a half hour of walking we get there. Two black guards are already there so we wait.

And wait.

And wait.

"Uh, I can't take it any more!" says Zed."They have been on that court since we got here! It's their nineteenth game!"

"You've been counting?" Asks Mara.

"Of course I've been counting, it's called court etiquette."

"Actually it's their twenty first game." I say. They all look at me crazy.

"What? Two before we got here."I say. They all roll there eyes.

"Where's that Renegade when we really need him?"asks Zed

"Maybe he's taking a break...I'm sure he's got friends too..."says Beck. I roll my eyes.

"Friends?! Him?! Seriously, if he was my friend I'd be the first one to turn him in!"Says Zed. It takes everything I have to not laugh.

A recognizer comes over to us. A hologram of General Tesler comes on."Gretings programs." he says."I address you, not only as your general, but as a resident of this magnificent metropolis. Like you I want nothing more then to see Argon prosper. This, I'm afraid isn't possible, when we surrender our streets to this massive menace. This renegade has made our city unsafe! And who has to pay for his actions? You! the hard working citizens of Argon! These programs"-he points to some programs in the background-"were taken disobeying curfew. A curfew put in place because of The renegade's selfish acts! But I see no reason why they should suffer, because of one program! Which is why"- pause for dramatic affect-" I will let them go AND permanently abolish all curfew,if, the renegade turns himself in by the end of the cycle. It's a challenge from me,to you. Are you listening renegade? Fail to show up and these programs take their chances at the games. You say your fighting for them. Prove it." The hologram disappears. I guess during that they left because I here Zed saying:

"Finally! It's about time! Beck your on my team!"He looks throws the ball at Beck and almost hits Mara in the head."Sorry...!"He yells.Well that's one way to get her attention...I think. Beck looks over at me. I just shrug.

"I got to go..."says beck.

"Oh you got to be kidding! they JUST left!"says Zed.

"Sorry.I just..."says Beck

"Just go. You need to." I say.

"Thanks." he says.

We go back to the garage. And we work.*yawn*.Well that and I kind of told everyone about Beck being stuck here...

"Oh come on...WORK!"I say to one of the bikes. Now would be a good time to use the "technology with my mind" thing but...I don't want to be in the games...again...

"Can we get some help from Zed?"asks Mara for the bagilionth time.

"Fine. We can."She almost jumps over to him.I see Beck over there.

"Hey Beck! I heard Able came down hard on you."she says

"Wait, you heard? Who else knows?!"Asks Beck.

"Courtesy of me, everybody."

"I can't believe that."he says, with an actual face palm.

"Me either."says Zed."No offense to Beck, but you'd think everyone would be talking about the renegade's surrender! No, they are talking about Beck!"

"What's got you in such a good mood?"asks Mara.

"Thought I just said it!"he says. Mara and I roll our eyes.

"Anyway...can I borrow you? I need someone with small, feminine hands."It takes everything I have to not burst out laughing.

"I'm your guy!"he says.

"You let her do that to you?"I ask him. He just shrugs in reply.


"Where is everyone going?"asks Beck.

"It's almost time."I say.

"Time for everyone to see what a fraud the renegade is!"says Zed.

"So you don't think there is the slightest chance he could actually be Tron?"asks Mara.

"Not even am I certain he's no Tron,I'm betting on him not showing up at all!"

"You got a real upbeat perspective, you know that Zed!"says Mara. We both walk away.

"I guess there's always a chance he could be tron! Just not a big chance!"he says, running after us. Once we are in Argon square,we wait. And wait.

Come on Beck I know you can make it!

I see recognizers coming. Hurry up Beck! Hurry up! It becomes yellow. I overhear Tesler saying something about 'Keep everyone out of my way'. Scary.

"Programs of Argon,I appreciate your support for such momentous occasion. It proves you care about your city. But I can't help but notice the absence of one of you! Where. Is. The renegade?He doesn't care about any of you! But, lets not dwell on the past. Instead, lets look to a new era. One of perfection! Of Clu." OK, can someone please tell me who Clue is!Wait, give me a sec...Oh, so that's who Clu is!

I see beck coming. Well it took ya long enough! I think.

"What I miss?"He asks,trying to sound cool. Underline TRYING!

General Tesler hops (literally hops!) off the recognizer, and lets the programs go.

"You wanted me? Here I am!"He says. Again trying to be cool.

"I see that. You certainly took long enough..."says Tesler. OK, that HE DID do...

"You got what you want! Now let them go."

"Normally I don't negotiate with , I'm a program of my word."he lets them go.

"And curfew?"asks Beck.

"Let's not get crazy. The deal was surrender. I've been waiting for this for a long time. The end of the renegade."

"I'm no renegade. I'm Tron!"says Beck. Wait...no he's not! I think."Now shut up and fight!" Seriously...STOP TRYING TO BE COOL!

"Let's finish this somewhere private..."The black guards move behind him. The floor starts to collapse...or break apart..oh...You know what I mean! Just as he is about to be safe. He missed and falls. Tesler goes down after him. He shoots this gigantic gun at him. Everyone rushes over to where they can see. They don't know the terror I'm feeling. I don't just know who is behind the mask. I know who is behind the mask. And he's about to be derezzed. Someone comes and saves him. Wait... Someone comes and saves him?! Who is that!? He (Tesler) runs off. Hold on...THAT WAS ABLE! Wow. Able drives off, then Beck runs off.

"All hail general Tesler! The victor in this encounter! Now get back to your homes! All of you! THERE IS A CURFEW STILL IN PLACE!


Me and Mara are talking about the renegade.

"That must have been so hard for you. Knowing who it was?"asks Mara

"It was. I was scared out of my bits he was gonna derezz."I say. Mara is about to reply but she gets cut off.

"You guys need any help?"asks Zed, coming over to us. "I have some time before my shift starts..."

"Oh...yeah...if you don't mind..."she says back.

"I'm sorry about what I said before. About the renegade being-"

"Beck!"Yells Mara. First it's panic,then I see Beck walk over. So then I feel relief, then I almost laugh.

"Where have you been?"asks Mara.

"Able's been looking all over for you!" I say.

"I heard. I have been avoiding him."

"And what better place to avoid I him then his own garage..."Zed mumbles under his breath.

"Beck." says Able "My office.Now."

"I'm really glad I'm not Beck right now."says Zed. Mara laughs nervously. I tap into the conversation.

"Look I know I'm in trouble-"

"Beck stop. What I'm going to say...I thought I would never have to say... How did you become the renegade? It's OK...I won't tell."

"How long have you known?"

"To long...I was foolish to try to keep you here...think I could protect you..." (Already knew that...I ROCK!)

"It was you...on the bike...YOU took on Tesler..."

"Now how could I pull of that?"

"I'm sorry about that...earlier..."

"I'm sorry you had to carry that for so long. It must have been hard for you..."

"It was..."

"We have a lot to talk about...when you're ready. Just remember you always have me to turn to. And De."(Wait...WHAT?)

"You know about that too?!"

"You would be surprised what I know..."He mumbles under his breath. Then loud enough to hear he says:"I wouldn't be surprised if she is watching now...Now go...they're waiting for you"

I see Beck come out. "Beck!" I yell "And for the record I was watching."I say when he is in talking-range."Today's full of shock huh?"

"You have no idea..."


Me:Did I sound lame at the beginning?

De:Yes.

Me:It was the best I could think of!

De:I honestly hate the fact you are my author...
