Helaina and Cybersix sat atop of a building that was currently being used as a radio transmitter station, the night had thus far been un-eventful and had led them to sitting in this high place talking about how their lives had taken the strangest of turns during their last year. With Helaina and Adella's unexpected arrival, and Cybersix's near death experience.
" So my father's new compound is still up there," Cybersix asked,
" Yeah, but further back than the original I think, It is in this kinda valley, with a nice rolling green hill," Helaina said, smirking as she remembered what she and Adella had done to Jose.
" I can't believe father hasn't got ride of Jose, after what he did," Cybersix said,
" I think he made Jose grew younger in his body, I though he was only 5 years old, you said he look about 10 when you last saw him, I'd say that is punishment for him," Helaina replied,
" Can't wait till he pisses father off enough and hopefully he will be an infant," Cybersix said as she imagined an infant screaming at fixed ideas to obey his every will.,
Suddenly and explosion disturbed the peace they had been enjoying, Cybersix and Helaina leapt from their vantage point and head toward the source of the noise,
" Hurry up you imbeciles," Jose yelled at a team of fixed idea's,
Jose had the fixed idea's loading money from a bank into the back of a large armed vehicle, he was sitting on the shoulders of a female fixed idea and had a small stick in his hand, when ever he wanted the fixed idea to move he would smack her on the head with it,
" Hey Jose, shouldn't you play nicer with you playmates," Helaina yelled as she walked up behind the fixed idea that he was atop of,
" Get her," Jose yelled, but as soon as the words left his mouth, the rest of his team of fixed idea's fell from the sky and landed on the back of the armed vehicle,
" Thanks Cybersix," Helaina said as she saw Cybersix dropping the unconscious fixed ideas from the adjacent building. While she had moved into position Cybersix had taken out all five of them, only one was missing and Helaina knew that Cybersix had deactivated that one.
" Get me out of here, " Jose yelled at the fixed idea he was riding while whipping it with the stick, " Move it,"
The fixed Idea ran towards the vehicle, but forgot to duck and allow for Jose on her shoulders, as soon as she got in Jose was lying on the ground beside the door, the fixed idea closed the door than stuck its arm out the window and pulled Jose inside, all while spinning the wheels and trying to get away.
" Well, that makes the evening worth while," Helaina said as she and Cybersix were placing the money that Jose didn't get back into the bank,
" You had better get back to Adella," Cybersix said, " See you tomorrow night,"
" Well I could see you during the day, if you told me where you are," Helaina said hinting,
" Maybe soon," Cybersix said as she leapt on to the nearest roof and disappeared.
Helaina made her way back home, this time not using the roof tops, since she had discovered more side affects from being changed such as incredible strength and hearing, she had spend a lot of time with Cybersix at night, of course it had taken Helaina and Adella a while to locate Cybersix , but they got lucky one night and saw her leaping from a window near their apartment, they had not known at the time she was Cybersix and just followed her to subdue their curiosity of this strange person. Cybersix had made it a great chase, she knew of course they were following, and due to the fact that Helaina was piggy-backing Adella, she had quite enough time to prepare for them to catch her.
"Who are you and why are you following me," Cybersix demanded,
" My name if Helaina, and she's Adella," Helaina explained as she let Adella off her back, " We were following you cause we saw you jump from that window, we had to see who you were," she continued,
" My name is Cybersix," Cybersix replied, keeping up the formalities but still being on guard and ready for an attack,
" Wow, we have been looking everywhere for you," Adella said
" Looking for me, I suppose my father sent you to destroy me, what series are you, you look practically human," Cybersix seethed, would her father ever just leave her alone,
" I'm totally human," Adella said, " Who's your father?" she asked,
" A crazy mad man who thinks he's god," Cybersix replied still very much on guard,
" Sounds familiar, does he happen to live in a giant compound and create life from death?" Helaina asked
" That'll be him, and you still haven't told me what you are," Cybersix said, directing the last part at Helaina,
" I was human, Now I am what he calls a BETA H, from division 5, sector 3, so I suppose that is BETA H 53," Helaina replied, " And he didn't send us, if anything if he catches us he will recycles us,"
" Explain?" Cybersix demanded, she felt uneasy about people appearing who were very much in the same situation as she, and could be telling her a bunch of lies,
" Well here goes," Adella stated, " The condensed readers digest version of course, we were kidnapped from out homes, had out memories temporarily erased, forces to live in divisions in the hell-hole compound where every so often, whole divisions would disappears and if the returned they were like her (pointing at Helaina), if not returned they were recycled for not being cooperative, or they deliberately got them selves killed so they didn't have to obey a mad man, we made friends with a type called Zey, who really ran the place but we didn't know, he helped us escape, we rolled Jose down a hill and came to Meridiana looking for you, as we heard stories of the Cyber who had escaped and we had to find her," she finished
" Oh, " Cybersix said as she was absorbing this large amount of information, " Well you found me," she continued after a moments pause,
" Yeah I guess so," Adells said

"Hey Adella I'm back," Helaina yelled as she came through the door,
" Hi, what was that explosion," Adella asked excited, she loved to hear about Helaina?s nights,
" Jose of course," Helaina said as she took of her cloak and went to change her cloths,
" Hey how was your date with that guy?" Helaina asked from the bathroom,
" Well lefts just say it was "blah", I though people in Lori's group were cool, this guy is a complete drongo, and that's being mean to drongo's," Adella replied, " that and he had one thing on his mind, and only one thing."
" Well you win some you lose some," Helaina replied as she re-appeared in a change of clothes, " Have you done any of your homework yet?"
" Nope, I was just starting, and you?" Adella replied as she sat down and pulled out a few books,
" I think I had better do some, that Mr Seidelman has given me a warning for failing to hand in the last two, I though he would have suspended me for sure after the last one," Helaina explained as she puled her books from a bag on the floor and sat at table Adella was already occupying.
" Well, what have we today?" Adella asked as she opened her book,
" Poetry appreciation," Helaina replied while scewing up her nose,
" What period do we have to chose from?" Adella said while smacking her forehead on the desk,
Helaina picked up her task sheet,
" Contemporary realism or pre-discussed literature," Helaina read from her sheet,
" Oh yeah, that makes total sense, how bout we start with say maths," Adella said without removing her head from the table.
Much later after all homework had been attempted (not necessarily finished) Helaina and Adella were doing what they did best, gossiping,
" Did Cybersix give any clue to who she is during the day?" Adella asked,
" No but I think she might tell me soon, she's really nice, well except to Jose, but that is totally understandable," Helaina replied,
" Where do you think she works," Adella continued
" No Idea, probably in some out of the way place where she wouldn't be noticed," Helaina suggested,
" The morgue?" Adella quipped,
" No to depressing," Helaina replied,
" The library?" Adella added,
" No to many people go in there," Helaina continued,
" The high school?" Adella said,
" Ha, we would have noticed her by now if she was there," Helaina
laughed,
