"Inez," Matt reassured, "Everything will be alright."

Inez was about to answer, but ended up breaking into tears.

Sometimes I get emotional
Sometimes I do some stupid things
Sometimes I say what I should just keep inside
Sometimes I'm sad 'bout everythin'
Sometimes I'm mad and break some things
Sorry times ten
But you just got in the way

Don't give up now runnin' away
I won't hurt you sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

"Everybody ready?" Dr. Marbles' voice came over the speakers of the cybercoupe.

"Ready, doc!" Digit replied.

"Cybercoupe launched!" Dr. Marbles announced, as the cybercoupe was released from Control Central to Cyberspace.

Sometimes I feel like cryin'
Layin' down and dyin'
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy
But sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel
Emotional

"Inez, calm down..." Matt reassured, as Inez cried in his arms.

"We have to make a stop at Radopolis to pick up Slider." Digit explained, "He promised to help out."

"Okay." Matt replied. Then, he turned his attention back to his sobbing wife. "We're going to find her, Inez. I promise."

You say I'm just impossible
Totally unpredictable
I'm just a girl
Get used to it
No big deal
You can't change me
Why would you try?
I'm no angel
But I can make you smile
And that's just the way it is
That's just the way I am

After the cybersquad picked up Slider, their next stop was the Northern Frontier.

When they got there, the battle began.

"Mommy!" Emily called from Delete and Buzz's grasp.

"Let her go, now!" Inez demanded, tears streaking from her eyes.

"Not without a fight!" Hacker retorted.

"Inez, no!" Matt called after her. Too late. Inez ran towards Hacker, and threw a blow so fast, that it was unavoidable.

"Why you little pipsqueak!" Hacker growled.

"Uh oh..." Emily sqeaked.

"What...did...you...just...call...me..." Inez growled in fragments in anger, knowing what Hacker just called her.

"A pipsqueak!" Hacker exclaimed, "A tiny, shrimp! A small fry! Teeny, tiny!"

Inez grabbed Hacker by his leg, and threw him to a far distance, his head stuck in the dirt.

Emily giggled, until...

"Don't laugh at the boss, little girl..." Buzz threatened, causing Emily to tremble with fear.

"Leave her alone!" Inez growled.

While Delete held onto Emily, Inez leaped and landed both feet on Buzz, pushing him to the ground. She then yelled at him, "Die, you stinkin' robot!"

Don't give up
Now runnin' away
I won't hurt you
Oh!
Sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's just the way it is
That's just the way I am-----------!

"That's not a good example for Emily, isn't it?" 27 year old Slider Metropolis frowned.

Jackie shook her head, as Matt ran over to the two. He pulled Inez away from Buzz - whom was almost squashed as flat as a pancake, saying to her, "Okay, Nezzie. That's enough."

"Matt, this is not a good time for calling me Nezzie." Inez snapped.

"Okay, let's not get too hasty here." Matt frowned, "You're giving a bad example to our daughter."

Inez's expression suddenly switched to calm, when she saw Delete drop Emily on the ground, and run away, taking the squished Buzz with him. Emily just cocked her head in confusion. Then, she giggled.

"Well," Matt shrugged, "At least you set Emily free, without harming the other robot. More like scaring him away."

Inez smiled at her husband as Emily clapped happily.

That's when I need you
Laughin's always easy
But sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel-------------!
Oh, yeah!

Inez took Emily by the hand and said, "Come on, Emily. Time to go to Control Central."

That's when I feel
Sometimes I get
Emotional...

And with that, the Cybersquad returned to Control Central, not knowing that this was only the beginning of their adventure. And I'm not talking about another installement. More of another chapter... The adventure is only beginning...
