Yes. I am a horrible person. I was really busy, so I couldn't even get anything but this written in the past two weeks. I'll try to get Ch. 9 up later this week, or get Ch. 10 out with it next Monday. The summer isn't supposed to be this busy!
Anyway, whatever happened to new episodes of Generator Rex? It's been a couple weeks and in the last episode a lot of stuff happened, so I want to know what happens next! C'mon Cartoon Network!
DISCLAIMER: I don't own GenRex, or Automatic Loveletter's Let It Ride.
Ch.8
Doctor Holiday frowned disapprovingly as Circe finally passed out. It had been two hours since the interrogation had started, and she hadn't gotten anymore information. "Agents should be in here all day and night, every day," Holiday said to the two agents in the room. They both nodded their heads. We need her, she thought. Van Kliess is planning something big, and it involves Rex and Saranyu. I can't let Kliess lay his hands on either of them, especially Rex. She turned to leave and said, "She should be out for about another 24 hours. Tell me when she wakes up." She walked out of the room after they had nodded yes again, taking notes so that the next two agents would know what to do and what to expect to happen.
Immediately, she noticed Six casually leaning on the wall of the hallway across from her.
"Bobo, Rex, and Noah are keeping her occupied," Six said.
"That's a relief," Holiday answered. At least one thing will be good today, she thought. That brought up certain freshly created memories.
Circe closed her eyes, screaming in pain. Blood leaked from the needles' punctures in her skin, now littering her whole body, and the poison on them was coursing through her veins, bringing her more pain than she had ever felt before. She knew it was artificial, but dear God it hurt! Tears flowed from her cheeks and made the blood on her cheek run down into the neck of her dress.
"Why won't you talk?" Holiday exclaimed in frustrated horror. The way she looked… was more horrifying than any EVO, dead or alive.
"B-bec-cause," Circe stuttered, forcing speech. She screamed again, the poison taking effect once more. "V-van K-kliess'll… k-kill m-me," she paused to scream again, then said, "a-and he… he'll k-kill y-you… too." Her eyes started to fog up, finally loosing consciousness.
She looked at the floor and shivered, horrified that she had managed to hurt Circe so much. Six detected her repulsion with herself and said, "It's all in the job, Holiday."
She sighed and answered, "I know." They stood in silence for a couple of seconds, then Holiday said, "We should do it while she's preoccupied, otherwise it won't be much of a surprise." She turned to walk down the hallway, saying, "I've kept it in my room." Six turned to follow, wondering why he was involved with this anyway.
After Rex and Noah had stopped Saranyu from killing Bobo, or, at least stopping her from beating him up too much, they set off to Rex's room to hang out. Playing video game after video game (which Rex always won, thanks to his nanites, the cheater) they wasted hours. Saranyu was having an awesome time, but something bothered her, and she couldn't shrug it off. It was starting to effect the way she acted, and the guys noticed.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Noah asked. Rex and Bobo were looking over because she hadn't even noticed that they had started a new game.
"Oh! Uh, nothing," She lied. She didn't want to ask if Rex's nanites ever stopped working.
"Spill it," Rex said. It was pretty obvious she lied, but now she looked painfully nervous.
"W-well, uh, have your nanites ever stopped working?" She asked, growing a stutter because she as so nervous. Rex and Bobo were surprised, but Noah almost forgot. It happened so often with Rex that it seemed normal when Saranyu's stopped working.
"Yeah!" Bobo answered. "He almost got us killed several times because of it!" Saranyu didn't look as nervous, but she doubted Bobo, so she kept waiting for Rex's answer.
"It's true," Rex said, sounding slightly downcast. He hated when it happened because it put not only himself, but the others around him in danger. He started to reminisce about "The Lockdown," when Holiday's sister got loose thanks to his recklessness, but Saranyu's exclamation of "Oh thank God" brought him out of his mind.
"Why are you asking about it?" Rex asked.
"It happened to me this morning, when you locked me in the closet with Noah," She said, glaring at Bobo. "Otherwise, I would have punched the door down."
"Yeah, it happens to me whenever I get emotional," Rex said. One of Saranyu's eyebrows raised, imagining that emotional means hysterical.
Noah, seeing her facial expression and the innuendo, said, "He means 'emotional' as in really angry or really stressed."
An "Oh" of realization was uttered by Saranyu and she also said, "I understand now!"
"What did you think 'emotional' meant?" Bobo asked. "A middle-aged woman watching the Titanic?"
Saranyu was silent for a few seconds, then she started to giggle. Of course, that meant that a few seconds later, she would laugh. Rex and Noah awkwardly started chuckling too, until all three of them were clutching their stomachs because they were laughing so much. Bobo was confused, even he didn't think that his joke was that funny.
A soft knock on the door went unheard by the three people laughing loudly, so when Doctor Holiday and Agent Six appeared in the randomly opened door, Saranyu, Rex, and Noah were very, very surprised.
"We're sorry to interrupt," Holiday said, "But could you please come next door?"
"Next door? Isn't that-" Rex said, but he was cut off by Six.
"Just do it, Rex," He said, seemingly more agitated than usual. Rex left his room, followed by Noah. They were preceded by Holiday and Saranyu.
"Did the boss get to ya?" Bobo asked. Six ignored him, as usual, but he let him out of Rex's room before him.
What's next door? Noah thought, curious as to why Rex didn't want to go inside
of that room.
Saranyu, who was next to Holiday, asked, "Why are we all parading down the hallway to my room?"
"Because," Holiday answered, stopped at Saranyu's bedroom door with the key in hand. "It's your birthday, and we got you a couple of presents." She inserted the key and the door slid open.
"Wow," Saranyu said, amazed at the changes that had taken place in three hours. She had a flat screen with a couple of different video game consoles beneath it. Video game upon video game were stacked on top of the consoles, the game corresponding to the console it was on top of. A brand new laptop sat on the desk in the corner, equipped with a green iPod nano plugged into the side of it. A set of iPod speakers sat on the other side of the desk. However, the most amazing thing in that room, to her, was the crème colored guitar, sitting in an open case, leaning on the bed frame.
"How did you know?" Saranyu asked, walking over to pick the guitar up by the neck.
"I saw the look on your face when you saw it in the window," Holiday said. "Rex and Bobo told me you played, so I figured I'd be a nice present." By now, everyone was in the small room.
"Um, can I give you a hug?" Saranyu asked, putting the guitar back in its case.
"Sure," Holiday answered. While they hugged, Holiday whispered into her ear, "Six had a part in this too." As soon as they separated, Saranyu walked up to Six (which was only a few steps) and said, "I'm sure you wouldn't like a hug, so will a handshake work for showing my thanks?" Everyone in the room laughed, except for Saranyu and Six.
"Yeah, sure," Six said, holding out his hand.
Saranyu took it, shook it, and said, "Thank you." Then she walked away to where Rex, Bobo, and Noah stood (which was only another few steps).
"Nice," Rex said. "I had to do a lot of complaining for my stuff."
"Yeah, well, it's mybirthday," Saranyu said in reply.
"Did you like your present?" Bobo asked, grinning pervertedly.
"Actually, yes, I did," She answered, blushing. Then she lowered her voice and threatened, "But if you ever try something like that again, you'll really be dead." Then she turned her attention to Noah and waited for a couple seconds. She blushed and said, "It's still your turn to kiss me, y'know." She smiled as he stepped forward, grabbed her chin, and placed his mouth on hers. The room remained silent until about a minute later, Six said, "Alright, that's enough."
"Seriously, the rest of us are still here too!" Rex said.
"You're just jealous," Bobo said, wearing the same perverted grin from earlier.
Rex's face turned bright red when he said, "Am not!"
The argument would have gone on, but Holiday said, "Could you play for us, Saranyu?"
"Sure," Saranyu said, reluctantly removing herself from Noah, who had his hands around her waist. "You'll have to keep in mind that I'm not the best around, though." She went to go sit on her bed, taking the guitar out of its case and strumming it, checking to see if it were tuned or not. A few tweaks later and she said, "I don't write my own songs, so the one I'm going to play is Automatic Loveletter's Let It Ride." Taking a deep breath of air, she started to strum. Following along with the song, which she guessed none of the others had heard before, going by their facial expressions, she started to sing. "We lay on the floor, breathing in deep, don't speak, don't say a word, just savoring, you're all that I have, and all to hold on to, you can't lead me on." She wasn't as nearly as good as the real singer, Juliet Simms, but she still had some talent. The song was catchy and meaningful, so everyone but Six showed their enjoyment of the song. "Come on, come on, catch a falling star, chase all your dreams, and don't let them go." Holiday's foot was tapping, a smile on her face. Rex was nodding his head to the beat along with Bobo, and Noah was smiling. "Take me away, let's get out of this town, run, baby, run, we're unstoppable now, on top of the world, sing it out loud, and mean it and keep believing, we've got the rest of our lives, let it ride. You're running away, don't tell anyone, we'll be the talk of the town, we'll be the envy of everyone, dances to mixtapes and car tops, so don't, don't, don't let this go. You take me away, let's get out of this town, run, baby, run, we're unstoppable now, on top of the world, sing it out loud, and mean it and keep believing, we've got the rest of our lives, so let it ride, let it ride, the time of our lives, let it ride, let it ride, the time of our lives. Take me away, let's get out of this town, run, baby, run, we're unstoppable now, on top of the world, sing it out loud, and mean it and keep believing, that we've got the rest of our lives.
Take me away, let's get out of this town, run, baby, run, we're unstoppable now, on top of the world, sing it out loud, and mean it and keep believing, we've got the rest of our lives, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride."
The audience erupted into applause and Saranyu said, "Thank you. That one is my favorite to play."
"That was pretty good!" Bobo said. "Ya got any others up your sleeves?"
"Yes I do," Saranyu said. The rest of the day went by like that, until Bobo decided to bring out the cake that he had baked himself (because apparently, he was the only one who knew how to bake) and Saranyu had no more songs to play. It was getting late anyway, so Holiday invited Noah to stay the night in an extra room. He accepted the offer, and soon everybody was in their own room, getting ready for bed.
This was a fantastic day, Saranyu thought. I've never been treated this well since… well since my parents died, actually. Looking over at her brand new guitar that seemed like it came straight out of her dreams, she forced herself to forget about her parents and focus on how awesome Six, Holiday, Noah, Rex, and although she loathed to admit it, Bobo are. She smiled to herself and went to bed dreaming of the adventures to come, set to the tune of Let It Ride.
"Sir, are you sure that Circe was the right one to use?" Biowulf asked, standing at the base of Van Kliess' throne.
"I am positive," Kliess answered, looking at his gauntlet. "She is a good girl; she knows where her home is." He focused his attention on his gauntlet and said, "Bring me the TV."
"Yes, master," Biowulf obeyed, leaving momentarily to find it.
"Soon I will be the most powerful man in the world, and that horrid Providence will be begging at my feet for mercy." He maliciously grinned to himself and thought about all of the power that would be coursing through his hand…
"Sir," Biowulf said, stepping aside so that Van Kliess could see what was on the screen.
"Thank you, Biowulf. I will no longer be needing your assistance for the rest of the day."
"Yes, master," Biowulf said. Then he turned his back and left as Kliess observed the screen. Perfect, he thought. Two Providence agents were sitting in a dark-lit room, a thick sheet of glass in-between them and the camera. "You are doing a perfect job, Circe." He threw his head back and laughed a laugh that most other super villains would be jealous of.
Thank you ever so much for reading! Reviews are awesome!
