Ava decided to wander around while Tron and Beck talked. Obviously they were talking about her because Beck kept stealing glances at her. Ava tried to ignore him by walking up the stairs to the long window overlooking Argon in the main room. "Beautiful." She couldn't believe a view like this even existed. Seeing Argon with all of its lights on was a spectacular sight. The only thing that ruined it was Tesler's base and the Coliseum. Ava touched the screen, taken by the view, and a folder popped up on the screen. "Whoa." Ava was about to open it when Tron came up from behind her and stored it away. She grinned sheepishly and looked down.

"So... you want to be a part of the revolution?" Tron questioned. He stood next to Ava, looking at the view as well, with his arms carefully held behind his back and a stern face.

Ava turned and looked at him with confidence set in her eyes. "More than anything." Beck was at the top of the stairs looking at the scene in front of him with defeat. "Even if you don't let me, I'm going to do my part in it anyways."

"Well..." Tron turned away from the screen and faced Ava, "welcome to the uprising." Ava's eyes gleamed with excitement and happiness. Beck frowned, walked back down the stairs, and walked through the doors towards the room with Tron's healing chamber in it. Ava then turned to see Beck walking away unhappy and chased after him. "Wait, Beck!"

Ava caught up to Beck in the room with Tron's healing chamber. Beck was leaning against the window, just staring out at the city.

"Why are you so upset about this? This is something cool. We can work together, take down Clu,..."

Beck cut her off immediately. He didn't want her to keep reminding him that she was involved now. "You shouldn't want this. You shouldn't be happy that you're a part of this now. I know that you're an ISO and that you can help us rally programs, but I don't want you involved in this. I didn't even really want it for myself."

Ava was slightly hurt from what Beck was saying. "I am happy with this. Beck, you didn't start it because of yourself. You did it for the citizens of Argon and the Grid. That's what I'm doing. I believe in your cause, so I'm joining it."

Beck sighed heavily. "You could get derezzed. I can't let that happen. I've almost been derezzed, and I would've been. If it weren't for that program that saved me, I wouldn't be here right now."

Ava rolled her eyes. "Beck, I get it. You don't want me to get hurt, just like how you don't want your friends to. You have to trust me on this, though. I know what I'm doing, and I know what the consequences are. I know I have to do this. That's why I believe I wasn't derezzed in the ISO War. This is what I was called to do just like you."

Beck shook his head. "No, it isn't. Trust me on this. Flynn believed ISOs were miracles, and they could change the User world, right? Well, you getting derezzed isn't what he meant."

"Have a little faith in me, Beck. I'm a lot stronger than what you take me to be/ I can take care of myself in a fight, and you wouldn't know that because you've never seen me fight. You're just going to assume that I can't. I have to go, Beck. We can continue this fight another time." Ava strode out of the room leaving Beck alone.

"Ava! Where are you! Come out, come out wherever you are!" Damien was on his lightcycle looking for Ava. Kalie had told him that if he really wanted to go to the club, he had to fight Ava first. Man, she's a difficult program to find. He thought to himself. Damien already checked Able's Garage, Argon Square, and the Coliseum. Now, he was just riding through the streets of Argon. Out of nowhere, a program on a lightcycle raced in front of him, causing him to lose balance and fall off his bike. The program noticed this, turned around, and got off their bike. "I'm so sorry! This is my fault. I should never have been riding that fast, but I just didn't think that someone would also be riding along these empty streets." Damien got up, picking his bike up also, and was about to start yelling at the program when he realized who it was. "Ava!" She gasped and in reply shouted, "Damien!"

"What are you doing Ava? I've been looking all over Argon for you. I was just going to start assuming that you fell into the Sea of Simulation."

Ava laughed lightly. "No, I'm fine. I was just visiting a friend and ran into some trouble. No biggy." She shrugged it off and continued, "So, you found me. What do you want?"

Damien derezzed his lightcycle back into a baton and turned to Ava. "I suggested that you, Kalie, and I go to the club tonight. Kalie told me I had to find you first." HE smirked. "Found you."

Ava laughed again. "Sure, I'm up for it." Ava picked up her bike and turned to Damien. "I'll race you back." Ava held up her baton and smirked.

"I beat I'll beat you." Damien smiled evilly.

"In your dreams." With that, they both turned and rezzed their bikes in the direction of the medic center to get Kalie.

Kalie was just continuing what she was doing before Damien took her tablet when someone came running into the medic center carrying a lifeless program in his arms. "Help! Please, someone help me!" Kalie ran over from behind her desk. "What's wrong!" She started to escort him with the girl to an empty room, and she helped him set her down on an empty bed.

"We were just playing a friendly disc game when two programs started to get into a heated discussion during their match. She stopped playing in ours and walked over to them, asking them if they needed help with something. One program turned to her and accused the other for cheating. She started to tell the other program that he shouldn't cheat, and he must've forgot he had his disc in hand because he swung it and told her she was lying. It must've hit her because the next thing I saw was her falling to the ground. I picked her up and saw this." His voice was shaky, clearly scared.

Kalie found that the girl's arm had been derezzed and immediately pulled her disc off her back. "Don't worry, she's going to be fine." The program exhaled a sigh of relief. "She will need time to recover, though." He then nodded his head.

"I remember you. You helped me a while back when my lightjet malfunctioned in flight."

"I remember that." Kalie was working on the girl's disc at a table near the bed. "It was my first day here, and they decided it would be a learning experience if I helped. So I did. You're Tristan."

He grinned. "You remembered... Kalie."

"I can see you remembered, too." Kalie smiled. "What's your programming?"

"Aerodynamics. It's a lot of fun, actually. I didn't think it would be. I wonder if anyone's tried to change their programming?"

Kalie's smile faded, but then returned quickly, trying not to make it noticeable. "I'm sure someone's tried it. Not everyone is going to be happy with their programming."

"But you are, so that's good."

Kalie's frown returned. "Of course I am."

Tron walked away from the screen and towards the room with his healing chamber in it. He needed to be in it because he felt that his scars were becoming worse with every passing cycle. Without trying to, he's skipped cycles where he needed to use it. The revolution was becoming a little harder to deal with, and Beck being at the garage more often now made it worse. He hoped having Ava around would help things.

Tron walked in the room to find Beck still sulking from earlier near the window. "Beck, you need to get over it. She's going to be a lot of help not just to the revolution but to me as well."

Beck sighed. "I know that. It's just that she could get derezzed. She's an ISO. Shouldn't we be protecting her? Not sending her out on suicide missions?" He stood up and watched as Tron walked into the healing chamber. Like always when he stepped into it, his scars vanished.

"You care for her. I understand. She's not going on missions right away with you, though. She needs to be put through the simulations you were put under first. It's been xilacycles since she's fought."

"Fine, but I'm still not on board with the idea of her being a part of this yet."

"You're going to have to deal with having new people a part of this and fast. We're going to have to start recruiting people soon. The revolution's coming."

Ok so Ava is a part of the revolution now, and Kalie meets a friend from the past. It's getting easier to write now, which I'm glad about. A lot of you asked about when the other story would be put up, but as I said before, it's going to be a bit. Probably by the middle of the summer I'll post the first chapter. Thanks to Panda Bear Lover 317, Hotshotlover, and 6GreatMind9 for reviewing! :)
