"Finally! We're out!" Duet exclaimed happily, as she appeared on
Kay's PET. She looked at Kay.
Kay didn't answer; she just sat there, staring into nothingness. Her eyes seemed lifeless and she seemed motionless. Her tan skin also seemed off color. Her breath was silent and short. She thought deeply about recent events, every bit of them.
"You who, Kay," Duet called, doing various movements to distract her.
She still didn't answer.
"Kay!"
Still... nothing.
"KAY!" Duet yelled.
"Hmm?" she finally said.
"You okay?" Duet asked?
She nodded slowly and yawned. Her tan coloring seemed to return to her skin. She still seemed a bit scared and spooked though. She turned off her PET to let Duet rest and went to bed herself. She fell asleep very quickly and entered a nightmare.
She was in a strange place. It was like space, empty, but white instead of black. She looked around and walked a few steps. Her steps echoed of whatever, due to that she didn't see any walls.
"Hello?" she called out, her voice echoing endlessly.
Then, ghostly visions of her parents appeared. Her small eyes widened and she blinked. Tears started to form in her eyes, but they were tears of joy. She ran over to them, tears streaming behind her. A springtime field surrounded the area suddenly.
"Mama! Papa!" she cried.
She reached her parents when they disappeared. She halted and then, the scenery changed to a dark, dead forest, with nothing but a few dead trees and rocks scattered along the dry ground. She called out for any sign of other people but then; bats flew down and flew around her head. She tried smacking them off and while doing that, was moved slowly to an edge of a cliff. Inch by inch she went until her scream pierced the sky.
She kept falling and falling but suddenly, she felt someone snatch her out of the air. Unaware of who or what it was she struggled in their strong grip. She kept struggling until she rolled out of the person's arms and continued to fall. Then, she landed on the real ground with a thud. She struggled under a mass of tangled blankets and screamed and yelled. Someone's arms reached in and plucked her from her prison of blankets.
She was breathing hard and sweating very heavily. Her eyes were still closed and she was a bit calm. She set her head down on the person's chest and she started to slow down on her breathing. She opened her eyes and looked around.
"So, you're awake," a familiar voice said.
"Huh?" she asked, looking up into the face of Forte. "Whaaaaaaaa!"
She started to struggle and Forte couldn't keep his grip. He dropped her onto the bed where she backed up to the pillows. She looked completely terrified, especially with her hair messy and her widened eyes.
"Who are you?!" she asked. "It's me, Forte," he replied. "You can't be. Forte's a Net Navi," Kay said.
"This is just an android model," he said. "That's why I left so suddenly."
Kay just sat there, staring at him with a dazed look on her face. Her breathing calmed down again. He just stared back, waiting for her to say something. A long time of silence passed when a sleepy Duet said, "Hey, what's up?"
The other two looked at her and her eyes widened in a heartbeat. She pointed at Forte and tried to say something but nothing came out.
"Well?!" the two asked.
"Why's he here?!" she questioned.
"I told you why yesterday," Forte answered.
"I wasn't asking you," Duet snapped.
"Why you little..." Forte began.
"Ah, ah. There's child in the room," Duet said smartly.
Forte looked out the corner of his eye at Kay and stopped what he was saying. He growled under his breath. Instead the two Navis just glared at each other, ready to end one other at any chance. Kay just sat there and watched the two nervously.
"Finhead..." Duet mumbled under her breath.
"What was that?!" he barked. "Hmm, small fry?!"
"Who you calln' a small fry?!" she barked back.
"Oh dear..." whispered Kay.
The two continued to bicker for the next week. They kept throwing names at each other back and forth. They would've ended each other if Kay weren't always watching. Finally, Kay decided stepped in.
"Can we all just get along?" she asked.
"NO!" the other two yelled.
"But..." she started.
"I would, but stupid finhead is here," Duet said.
"Grrr. Well, I would, but wrench brain is in my way!" exclaimed Forte.
"Wrench brain?! Oh! You're gonna get it!" Duet snarled.
"Hmph! You couldn't do a thing!" Forte stated.
"Oh yeah?! Wanna bet, you finheaded monstrosity?!" Duet threw back.
"Guys..." Kay said.
"What?!" they exclaimed.
"Err... Nothing," she said, smiling nervously.
Kay sat in the middle of constant and what seemed like eternal arguments. Back and forth they shouted and yelled, and it was becoming dead annoying. She sat there, looking at Duet when Forte said something and at Forte when Duet said something. She would often fall asleep and they would continue. For hours and hours it was nonstop verbal fighting. She wished it would all just stop.
The next day, she was able to sneak out of the raging war of name calling and insulting. She was finally able to breathe and think to herself again. 'Finally, some peace and quiet,' she thought to herself. She walked down to the park, lush and green and full of shady trees. She sat down on a bench and closed her eyes. She listened to the pleasant songs of the birds and the chattering squirrels. Suddenly, a huge noise disturbed her peace. She bolted up in a blink of an eye and rushed towards home.
