Ushi-Sama- Isn't that some cirus?

Origin One- Shut up. Anyway, today we have a special guest, a good friend of mine, Risu chan!

Risu Chan- Hello? What am I doing here, I never said you could use me in this! Get me out of here!

Risu- Shut up, I want out now!

Ushi-Sama- Told ya she would.

Origin One- Fine. Ushi, get me the tranquilizers and the rest of you enjoy the chapter.

Where is she. X thought to himself. I can't believe I just left her like that. I hope she's not mad. That would really throw a wrench in things.

X dashed towards the spot where he had last seen Alia. He quickly looked around. Arg! She's not here! X thought for a minute before slapping his fingers. "Duh, I'll just check her headset. I bet she turned in on when I asked her about it."

X scanned his memory banks for her personal frequency. Finely finding it X plugged it into his own headset and waited for a response.

Meanwhile, Alia reached to open the door to X's room, hoping to find him there. Right then a beep notified her that she had a call on her head set.

"Hello?" she said.

"Alia! Good, you did turn on you headset." X replied.

"X! Where are you? And where did you go?" Alia responded.

"Oh, I just went to the Control Center. Signis was holding a meeting. Where are you now?" X asked.

"I'm was about to open the door to your room."

X laughed and headed for his room. "I wouldn't if I were you. You would be scarred for life."

"Oh, come on, it can't be that bad."

"Oh, but it is. Trust me. Don't temp Fate."

"I don't believe you."

"I'm telling you Alia, DON'T OPEN THAT DOOR"

"I'm reaching for the handle." Alia said in her must seductive voice.

"You wouldn't Alia."

"I'm turning the handle."

"Alia.." X said as he broke into a mad dash toward his room.

"I'm opening the door."

"Stop Alia!"

"I'm looking- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"I told you Alia."

"X! Don't you even sleep in here! There is NOTHING HERE! Just a bed and a empty kitchen! The rest of the rooms are bare!"

"Well yeah. I don't go there all that often. And I normally sleep on the roof, you know that." Replied X, turning the last corner before his room.

"Well I'm doing some decorating. If you won't use the room then I will." Alia told him.

X screeched to a halt in front of his door. Alia was just inside his room and looking around. X turned off his headset and ran at Alia.

"RARRRHH!" X yelled as he grabbed an unsuspecting Alia into his arms. Alia let out a scream as X twirled her around and set her on his bed.

"Do you know what time it is Alia?" X asked, leaning over her. Alia was about to check her clock when X started to tickle her. "That's right! Its tickle time!" he said as Alia broke out into a mad laugh, slapping at the hands of her attacker.

"S-stop! P-p-p-please!" she said as she continued to laugh. X stopped and looked at Alia as she wiped her eyes.

"Awww, is poor Awia crying? Was wittle X's tickewing to much?" X said, taunting her. Alia laughed.

"No, I just needed the time to counter attack!" she said as she tackled X to the floor and began tickling him. X burst out laughing.

"Oh, so that's how you want to play eh?" X managed to get off in between laughs. He quickly flipped Alia off to his side and got up. He then picked Alia up and fell backwards onto the bed. Alia started tickling him as soon as they hit the covers and X did the same. A few minutes passed of this before both reploid stopped. Breathing deeply, X laid next to Alia with his hands out to the sides. Alia let out the last of her lasts and joined X in laying on the bed. Noticing X's hand nearest her she put her own hand on it and held it tight. X looked over in surprise but quickly applied his own grip. Soon X found himself in the realm of sleep.

"Do you really think that you can defeat me X? Look at yourself. You can't even stand up." Said the shadowed reploid. X tried to stand but winced in pain as the reality of how badly damaged he was rushed apon X like a flash flood.

"I. can't lose. I wont start disappointing. people. now. Especially when those people are my friends!" X replied as he again tried to stand.

"Your friends? You mean those people that betrayed you? The ones that sent you first to fight a losing battle and then forget about you? The ones lost faith in you when they learned about your corrupted files? Those same 'Friends'? Don't make me laugh X."

X closed his eyes and thought for a minute. "NO!" said X as he pulled on leg up. "The ones that are always there for me. The ones that believe me to be the best hope." X pushed against the ground as he stood. "The ones that I shared a lifetime of joy with!" X raised his buster and pointed it at the shadowy reploid. "Those ones."

X blinked as he woke up. He could hear the soft snoring of Alia next to him and the warmth that her core gave off. He looked at her. Alia had pulled herself up next to him and put her head on his shoulder. X smiled, Well, at least one of us can sleep peacefully these days.
