Wingedlcarus: thank you! And that episode was so great. I'm buying it when it comes out on iTunes.
Hawkpath13: Thank you, and I intend to keep this story going for a long time.
Lina Trinch: Thank you, and I was trying to keep them as in character as possible, which is kind of hard when you want Six to have emotion. Six is the best. I love him so much. I just wish he would take off those stupid glasses for one episode!
TheEndReaper: Thank you as well, and I'm planning on writing a lot more. Those two scenes you mentioned were actually two of my favorite ones.
AN:
I didn't really expect to have this chapter written in such a short amount of time, but the whole concept just decided to come out at 1 am last night. I stayed up until 3 am writing this story on my iPhone notepad, then I fell asleep with my phone in my hand, still opened to my story. Thank you to everyone who reviewed! And I'll make a point of answering any questions in reviews in at the beginning of the new chapter, just like I did here.
I'm going to rant about the previous episode a little more before I go into the next chapter. Just a warning…
I can't believe Holiday's hair! It's so awesome, and it looks a lot like mine! The only real difference is that I have bangs on both sides. And my hair is a little darker. Now all we need is to see Six sunglassless…I don't think that's a word, but I'm making it one for Six. Well, onto the story.
Oh, I forgot this in the last chapter. I do not own Generator Rex, or any stories that my writing might reference to. I do however own my OCs.
Seven o'clock on a Friday night and Six had nothing to do. Sadly, creating Providence five years ago had killed his social life. He knew that in his line of work, he couldn't afford to have friends or any personal ties for two reasons.
Reason one; they could be used against him. If enemies wanted something to use against him, they could just threaten to have his friends killed. Unless the people he was once close to could fend for themselves, he cut the personal ties between him and those people a long time ago.
Then, there was reason two; they could turn on him. Get close to him; learn his secrets; gain his trust. Then break it all and use those things against him. The agent had experienced this before. He wasn't sold out to any enemies, but one of his friends turned against him.
She was one of the three who came up with the concept of Providence. Just before Rex was found by the organization, she had quit. The girl was a genius; she was too dangerous due to her knowledge on everything and couldn't be trusted. White tried to have her killed because she began sneaking around behind her two co-creators of Providence; the green clad agent and White. She was deceiving, menacing, threatening, and just plain evil sometimes. But under her outer shell was just a confused, innocent little girl.
Sure she knew a lot about everything; human nature, society, and she was an expert in every topic that was ever taught in any school. But, under it all she was just confused, misguided, and lost. No one taught her right from wrong, and the lines between the two always overlapped for her.
Sure he understood this, but clearly White didn't. He was too focused on turning the once twelve year old girl into a gun for hire. Sure he was just a field agent back then, but he still acted like he was in control of everything. But now she was seventeen…there's no knowing how deadly she could be now. Well, there was also no knowing where she could be now. Of course, White probably knew, but he would never want that girl back in his life.
'Come on Six, stop thinking so hard. You need something to do…' Six though to himself. There was practicing fighting…but the man had already fought three evos today; he had all the practice he needed. There was sleeping…but he wasn't tired in the least bit. That left the agent with his previous idea: killing Rex.
But, if he killed Rex, White would just kill him in turn. Since Six didn't really feel like evoking White at the moment, he decided to just go to his room. While walking down the hall, he overheard some conversations that the red-shirts were having. One of the conversations was about fighting evos, another about girls, another about video games, and the last one he heard was about himself.
"How do you think they programmed Six so well?" One of the troops said.
"I guess Knight is an expert in robotics." The second one said.
"But, if he's a robot, then why does he love that doctor?" A third troop asked.
"Dammit Nigel! You just ruined our theories." The second one said.
"And what theories would that be?" Six questioned, interrupting the troop's conversation. When the three troops saw the agent, they jumped back.
"The theories about…evo curing!" The first one said. Six raised an eyebrow at the troop.
"Go on…" The agent said. He obviously knew that they were talking about him, but he just wanted to have a little fun with this.
"We were just talking about how great it is that Rex can cure evos and that we don't have to die trying to kill them all." The third said.
"Yeah, that cure option was really a great addition to Providence." The first troop added.
Six just shook his head back and forth. "You three can go on." The troops began to walk down the hall. "But just for the record, I'm not a robot." The three froze in place after hearing Six's comment, but the agent just ignored them and continued to walk to his room.
Once the agent got in his room, he still had to figure out something to do.
'Well, since I'm not tired in the least bit, looks like I'm training.' The agent opened his closet typed a code into a number pad, which revealed a secret wall behind the one previously there. Once opened, a wall of katanas, sai, stilettos, and other assorted daggers were revealed.
The agent looked around his closet weaponry and pulled out a pair of sai and a stiletto. Both of the weapons were black and had red engraving on them. The engraving was a Chinese phrase, which read 'never lose hope'. The phrase was simple, but it meant so much to the girl who had given Six the weapons.
She used the weapons time and again, but when she left Providence, she had decided to gift the weapons to Six.
Flashback
"Six, I know I'm leaving, but it's not because of you."
"Then what's your reason?"
"White. He tried to have me killed again. It's not safe here as long as he's around. I suggest for your well being, you leave too."
"Thank you for your concern, but I think I'm going to stay."
The girl looked down in disappointment. She reached into her jacket and pulled out her sai and one of her stilettos. "If you're staying here, I want you to have these." The girl reached out and placed her weapons in the agent's hands.
The man stared down at the weapons. "What do they say?"
"Never lose hope." She said smiling.
"Why are you giving me your weapons?"
"I can't be true to them anymore. I've lost hope in an organization I helped start." Six stared at the girl. "I'll find new weapons, you don't have to worry about me."
"I'm not worried about you. You're plenty capable of fending for yourself, with or without weapons."
"Yeah, being able to control and manipulate elements does come in handy." The girl and Six sat in silence for a few moments. "I'll miss you Six."
"Knowing you, this won't be the last time we see each other."
"Knowing me, we'll be on opposite sides next time we meet."
"Try not to let that happen."
"No promises…" The girl smirked. "Goodbye Six." She said right before exiting the agent's room.
End Flashback
The girl was right. The next time she saw the agent, which was two months after she left, she was fighting against Providence. Sure, she was still fighting against evos, but she wouldn't let Providence interfere. They weren't on complete opposite sides, but they definitely weren't working together anymore.
From the point where she quit to where Providence found Rex, the girl regularly snuck into the agency. Six was usually the one who had to kick her out. She was frequently found looking through files on the main computer alongside Bobo. White changed the password after each of her little visits, but she was still able to hack into the computer every time.
Neither Six nor the girl wished to admit it, but fact was fact; they were now enemies. Six was ordered to kill the girl each of her visits, and while he didn't oblige, he still had to make it look convincing. Often time, both the girl and the agent would walk out of their battles bruised, bleeding, and Six would often have a few burn marks. Of course, what else did he expect from a girl who could bend fire…
The agent hadn't touched the blades the girl had given him in years. She was part of his past, and he part of hers, but…was that really what they both wanted?
Six's deep thought process was broken by a sudden knocking on his door. "Come in." The agent said.
Six turned to face his door and saw Rex walking in. "Are you bored out of your mind too?" Six just glared at the boy. "Are we still mad about the little Holiday thing?" No reply from Six meant yes, he was still mad at the boy.
The agent sighed and walked back over to his closet and closed the hidden weapon stash before Rex could see it. Rex did however see the sai and the stiletto laying on Six's bed.
"Oh cool! What are these!" The boy asked, while running over to the agent's bed and grabbing the weapons. Before he could grab the weapon, Six had already ran over to the bed and had picked up the weapons.
"No." Six said.
"Why?" The boy questioned.
"You'll hurt yourself."
"No I won't." Rex grabbed the stiletto from the agent's hand. "Ow!" The boy screamed. His hand had began to bleed. Six grabbed the stiletto out of Rex's hand and threw it back onto his bed.
The agent walked over to his dresser, opened a drawer, and pulled out a roll of gauze. He then began to bandage the boy's hand. "Rex, you're not supposed to grab a stiletto by its blade."
"Six, I know you're the ninja here, but this" Rex held up the stiletto with his good hand, "This is not a shoe."
Six literally face-palmed at the boy's comment. "Stilettos are daggers. The name of the heels originated from the weapon name."
"Oh…" The boy said.
Suddenly, White's voice could be heard over the intercom. "Six, Rex; my office in five."
"What does he want?" The teen asked.
"Let's go find out." The agent replied. He tied the gauze around Rex's hand, then the two walked down to the main computer hold and went inside. White's face appeared on the video screen.
The man looked down at Rex's hand. "Do I want to know?"
"I cut myself." Rex said.
"On what?" White asked.
"A shoe." Six face palmed yet again.
"Rex, we just talked about this, a stiletto is a type of dagger, not a shoe." The agent corrected.
"Oh, I cut myself on a dagger." The boy told White, while holding up his hand to show White.
White just ignored the boy and began to talk to Six. "You have a mission. There've been multiple evo readings coming from Little Rock."
"Solo or with the kid?" The agent asked.
"Both of you are going."
"Where's Little Rock?" Rex asked.
"Arkansas." Six said. "Send the coordinates to my jet."
White nodded his head and then the screen went black.
"Knight's giving us a mission at 8 PM?" Rex asked.
Six shrugged. "You have anything better to do?"
"No…" Rex said. The two walked to the ship hub and walked over to the jet Six normally used. The two got in the ship and Six began to drive away.
"Are you going to be quiet this time?" Six asked.
"Hm…to sit silently and be bored, or to talk about Holiday…tough choice." Rex smirked.
"If you want to talk about Holiday, go ahead. Just don't expect to get a reaction out of me this time."
"I bet you five bucks I can get a reaction out of you."
"And what reaction would that be?"
"Um…I bet you five bucks; I can make you blush."
"I don't blush." Six said.
"That's not what the security camera says…"
"You hacked into the security cameras?"
"Yup; did you really think I wasn't going to go to effort to see what happened after I told Holiday about your crush on her?" The boy asked.
"I suppose I should have assumed that…" The agent turned around and saw the boy smiling at him.
"Not sure I want to know, but why are you smiling?"
"You didn't deny that you have a crush on Holiday…" The teen teased. The agent just decided to ignore the boy and focus on driving. "Which means I was right and you do love her."
"Why must you talk about this every time we fly somewhere?" Six questioned.
"I find it entertaining."
"Of course you do." The agent turned back around and continued to drive.
A few minutes of silence was broken by Rex saying, "So…you do love her?" The boy wasn't sure, but he could swear he heard Six bang his head against the control panel.
The teen decided to cut Six some slack and stay quiet for the rest of the drive. The agent had had a long day too, and Rex knew he was too tired to be bothered by him.
"We're here." The agent said.
"Already?"
"Rex, this drive has been hours, did you fall asleep or something?"
"Maybe." Rex said. The duo exited the ship and started walking around the town. "Why is it so quiet?"
"I'm not sure." The agent said.
"Where's the evo?"
"How would I know?"
"I don't know." Suddenly, a giant evo appeared in front of Six and Rex. The evo looked to be about one-hundred feet tall, and looked to weigh about a ton. "I think I found it."
"Really? I hadn't noticed…" The agent said. He pulled out his katanas and ran up to the evo. The agent ran up the creature's spine, stood on top of its head, and stabbed the evo with his katana. The evo screamed and flung the agent away. Six hit the ground and rolled into a car.
"You are just not having good luck with cars today, are you dude? Anyway, now it's my turn." Rex said. The boy ran up to the evo and formed his slam cannon. He took a piece of the road and launched it at the creature.
The evo showed no signs of pain from Rex's attack. The boy decided to try his BFS, which still had no effect on the beast. The evo reached out and grabbed Rex, then threw him toward Six.
The teen landed on top of the agent, who promptly shoved him off. "Six, I think we have a problem."
"You think? Nothing's working." The agent said.
"Looks like big ol' Providence could use some help, eh guys?" A male voice said. The boy was standing in a dark alleyway among some other figures, so neither Rex nor Six could see what any of the people looked like.
"Yeah, they're not looking two good, eh Will?" A female voice said.
"Nope, not at all." The boy presumed to be Will said.
"Shut up and focus. We're not here to mock Providence." A different female voice said, this girl's voice was deeper than that of the other girl's.
"Why?" The first male voice said.
"Look, you can mock them after we get rid of this evo." The second girl said. She appeared to be the leader of the group. "Let's just get to business before their little 'cure' is killed."
"About time!" Rex interjected.
"Shut up, kid." The first male voice said.
"Could we stop messing around and just take care of this thing already?" The girl who was the probable leader requested.
"Sure thing, sir." A third male voice said, seemingly mocking the girl.
"Smith, Mai; I want you two on offense. Benji, Will; you're watching their backs and looking out for other evos." The leader girl said.
"You know, evos don't usually travel in packs." Rex corrected.
"Kid, in this town they do. There've been about five evo attacks today alone, and four of those five attackers have had backup." The girl leading the other kids said.
"Hey, not to interrupt your little love session, but what are you doing?" The other girl asked.
"One; I'm not going to fall in love with the cure. And two; finishing this thing off if necessary. I'll see where you guys get." The leader stated.
"But wha-" The other female voice began to ask something, but was cut off.
"Mai, just get down there!" The leader said. Her voice was stern, showing that she was obviously losing patience.
"Yes sir." The girl assumed to be Mai said, obviously teasing the leader. Out of the shadows came a girl with pale-ish skin and light brown hair that was covering most of her face. She looked to be around sixteen. The girl was wearing a gray top with short, ripped sleeves and a skull design on the front, a black and red plaid skirt that ended just above her knees, and gray ballet flats.
"Smith, you're with her." The leader said. Out from behind Mai emerged a boy with tan skin and light black, almost gray, hair. His hair was neatly cut and not a strand was handing in his face. The boy looked to be about Rex's same age. He was wearing a collared, short-sleeved, white dress shirt with a black crooked tie, black pants, and black dress shoes.
The two teens which were just revealed to be Mai and Smith jumped out from the ally and started fighting the evo. They weren't half bad either. The girl had some shuriken and the boy had a katana. Sure, the evo got a few hits on the two, but they were doing pretty well holding their own against the creature.
"And why are you two not down there?" The leader girl asked.
"Fine. We're going." The first male voice said.
Out of the shadows, the last two boys appeared. Their traits were extremely similar, and they were most likely twins. The only difference was that one of them looked to be about three inches taller than the other. Both of the boys looked to be about sixteen.
They both had pale skin and black hair. The shorter one had bangs covering his forehead. He was wearing a black and gray striped long-sleeve top, baggy black pants, and black sneakers.
The slightly taller of the two had bangs covering the entire left side of his face, including his left eye. His hair was spiked up a little down his part line. The boy was wearing a black Hoodie with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, black pants with chains hanging from them, and damaged black converse.
"Let's go Benji." The taller of the two said, before they both climbed up the building and jumped off of the edge. They landed on the evo, and began fighting alongside Mai and Smith.
"So, what brings Providence here?" The girl leading the other teens asked. She still remained in the shadowed ally.
"The evo. Who are you?" Six asked.
"What a shame…is that all you guys do? Hunt evos?" The girl questioned.
"Looks like you're doing the same thing with your spare time." The agent added.
"Same old Six…do you really not remember who I am?"
"I can't say I do. How do you know my name?" Six asked.
The girl ignored his question, and just said, "Maybe it'll help if you actually see me." The girl said, as she stepped out of the shadowed alleyway. She was obviously the oldest of the teens, and looked to be about seventeen.
She had skin that was almost as pale as White's, and jet black hair with some dark red streaks running throughout it. Her hair was straight and went halfway down her back. She had bangs that covered most of the left side of her face and some of the right side.
The girl was wearing a black tank top with a black fishnet tank top under it. On top of her shirt, she had a black jacket on. The jacket had a dark red design on it, that couldn't quite be made out from the distance Rex and Six were at. She was wearing black skinny-jeans with rips in them that didn't look like part of the original design. Lastly, she was wearing damaged black converse, just as the other boy was.
She glanced over at her apprentices fighting the evo, while asking, "Did you miss me, Six?"
"Yin?" The agent asked, with a slight amount of surprise in his voice.
"You guessed it."
AN
Okay, that chapter was a lot longer than intended. I think it was around 3,600 words. Oh, and before I get any questions, my main OC (the girl who was the leader) is not based off of Circe. I made Yin up when I wrote Secret Saturdays fanfics, so basically a little over a year ago. Before I publish this, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who added my story/me to their favorites list and alert list, and to my three reviewers. Keep reading and reviewing! ^^
