Lina Trinch: A lot of those Rex/Six (Sex?) slashes are…disturbing. Well, mostly when they're lemons. I'm not against yaoi, but the age difference and having sex is just…yeah…too much for my taste.

AN:

Back from Florida! I just got home yesterday, and was going to upload a chapter I had written over break, but my dad decided to go on the computer when we got home and infect the computer with a virus -_-

I think it's gone, so…that's good. Like always, GR © MoA.

In tears, Yin reached into her dresser drawer. "Maybe they won't give me suicidal thoughts this time…" She thought out-loud as she opened a bottle of pills.

She poured some of the pills from the bottle into her hand and ingested them. The girl walked into her bathroom and wiped her face with a wet towel to remove the stains from her tears. When she walked out of the bathroom, she glanced over at the shards of glass lying on the ground.

"White's going to kill me…" She said while glancing over at the glass shards. Yin walked over to the aftermath of her little breakdown and began picking up the shards. "One piece of glass" She began counting as she placed the glass in a trash can. "Two piece of glass-three piece of glas-ow!" Yin looked down at her hand, which was now covered in red crimson liquid. "Damn it! Damn it!" The girl ran over to her bed and tore off a piece of her sheet.

Yin wrapped the torn-off sheet around her hand to form a tourniquet, which she proceeded to tie extremely tightly around her hand. After a few minutes, the bleeding had slowed down. She looked down at the ground where she had ran over to the bed, and discovered a trail of blood. "Okay, I just lost a lot of blood…maybe I should go see Holiday before I faint." She voiced.

Suddenly, she was overcome by a dizzy feeling. "Shit-too late." Yin said before she fell on the ground and her world went black.

When she awoke, Yin was lying under a thin, white sheet. When she further examined her surroundings, she found herself to be lying on a hospital bed in the medical wing of Providence base. "Wh-what happened?" She asked herself.

"You fainted." Yin jumped when she heard Holiday respond to her question.

"Hello!" She practically shouted, not knowing how else to react. Holiday just smiled and laughed to herself.

"Sorry-I didn't mean to scare you." The doctor apologized.

"You didn't scare me." Yin rebuttled.

"Then why did you jump?" The doctor questioned.

"I don't know. I just got a chill, that's all."

"Okay, but then why did the heart monitor increase when you 'got a chill'"? Holiday retorted.

Defeated, Yin just sighed, but then smiled slightly while shaking her head back and forth. "Stupid monitor."

"Care to tell me what happened?" Holiday asked. The doctor was looking at Yin's hand when she questioned the girl.

"Cut myself on a glass shard."

"How?"

"I broke my mirror and I was trying to clean up the glass."

"How did you break the mirror?"

"I was practicing fighting, and I accidentally broke it." Yin defended, trying to cover up her story. However, the look she received from Holiday told her that the doctor wasn't buying it.

"Well, what did you break it with?" Holiday questioned smugly.

"My sai."

"Then where was your sai when I found you unconscious in your room?"

"In my closet."

"And how did it get there?"

"My hand didn't bleed immediately after I punched the mirror, Holid-" Realizing that she slipped, Yin stopped her sentence on the spot. She made eye contact with Holiday, but quickly looked away.

"Yin, why did you really break your mirror?" The doctor questioned as she looked Yin in the eyes-well, eye. When the girl didn't respond, Holiday continued interrogating her, "Okay, if you're not going to tell me that, then at least tell me what medication you took before I found you unconscious."

"How did you know I took medication?"
"Well, I assumed you did because your blood stream was slightly different than usual, but you just confirmed my assumption."

Yin sighed before answering Holiday's question. "Anti-depressants."

"Why?"

"Could you stop it with the 'why's' and 'what's' and 'where's'! You're not my therapist!" Yin's heart rate went up slightly after her outburst. After she noticed herself, the girl ripped the tube connecting herself to the heart monitor out of her skin.

Holiday looked aggravated for a moment, but scoffed it off. "Then who is your therapist?" Holiday's comment received a look of shock from Yin, which was preceded by a look of deep thought.

"I wish I had one sometimes. The closest thing I've ever had was Six." Yin and Holiday made eye contact before both beginning to laugh at Yin's comment of Six being her therapist.

"Six was your therapist!"

"I didn't say he was a good therapist…he didn't comment on anything. He just listened. And he didn't even listen that well either."

"I can't believe you actually got him to listen to your problems!"

"He'd do anything if it meant helping the people he cares about." Holiday looked down to think for a moment.

"You know-you're right."

"He tries to act all stoic and tough, but he's a huge softie inside." Yin said while beginning to crack up.

"That is too true." Holiday said before beginning to laugh along. "Knowing him-well, at least the ninja part of him-he's probably listening to what we're saying right now."

"Eh, let him listen. I'm not too scared of Sixey." Yin said. Holiday stared at her before placing her hand over her mouth and laughing again.

"Sixey?"

"Oh yeah, used to call him that all the time. It annoys the hell out of him."

"That might be useful knowledge…"

"Trust me, it'll come in handy."

"So, I'd hate to down the mood, but why does someone your age need to take anti-depressants?"

"I'm depressed."

"Well," Holiday began, "I guessed that."

"I just had some bad memories."

"About…?"

"A painful event."

"Emotionally or physically?"

"Both."

"Care to explain?"

"Not really…" Holiday raised an eyebrow, which Yin noted. "I suppose I could tell you one thing about it-this isn't my real eye color. I'm wearing contacts."

"Then what's you real-" Holiday's question was answered before she finished asking. She stopped mid-sentence when she saw Yin take out her contact to reveal her true eye color. The girl's previously green eye was now a dark shade of red.

"This is."

"What…what about your other eye?"

"It's a little worse…I don't know if you really want to see it."

"Yin, I'm a doctor. I can assure you I've seen worse."

"If you're sure." The girl said as she shrugged. She then reached for her bang and placed it behind her ear, which received a slight gasp from Holiday.

"I didn't know your eye was…wow."

"Yeah…you're one of the few people I know who have ever seen my eye. Other than myself, I think the only person whose seen it was that nurse and the kids that caused it."

"Not 'Sixey'?" Holiday asked.

"Nope. Six has never seen it."

"Wow…I feel special now."

"You should." Yin said after laughing a little. She proceeded to cover her eye with her bang, as it was before. "Not to end the conversation, but can I leave now?"

Holiday's phone started ringing, and she reached into her pocket to pull it out. "Yes, Six?-No, no I haven't seen Rex.-Well…alright, I'll be right there." The doctor put her phone back in her pocket. "Sorry Yin, but I have to leave."

"It's alright. I don't even know what time it is, but White's probably looking for me." Yin said as she rolled her eyes.

"You should get some rest. Don't worry about White." Holiday advised. The girl just laughed.

"Holiday, I would personally love that. But, it's like your sister. You wouldn't go against White's orders, because he might kill her. I'm in the same boat, only with my friends."

"Well maybe you should come with me to meet Six and go search for Rex."

"Well, I would technically be following White's orders if I did that…I'd just be following White's orders for Six instead."

"I'll take that as a yes." Holiday said. She then began walking out of the room into the hall.

"Hey, wait for me!" Yin said as she jumped out of the hospital bed and ran after Holiday.

The two walked down the hall, and they eventually walked to the ship hangar to meet Six. The agent lifted his eyebrow to question why Yin was with Holiday.

"Got nothing better to do." Yin answered before the agent could even ask his question. The girl walked by him and into the ship. Six then raised an eyebrow at Holiday when she walked by him. The doctor just shrugged in response.

"Hey, it'll be like old times, eh Sixey?" Yin said once Six and Holiday entered the ship. The agent turned around from the driver's seat to shoot Yin a death glare. "Fine, fine." She said as she held her hands up defensively.

"Let's just go find Rex." Holiday interjected.

"Fine with me." Six said before starting the ship and taking off.

"Where'd he go anyway?" Yin asked Six.

"You're the psychic, why don't you tell me?" Six retorted.

"Okay." The girl placed two of her fingers on her temples before closing her eyes and taking a deep breath. "Fly down." She said as her eyes popped open. "Now!"

The agent did as the girl commanded, and just barely missed hitting a giant whale. Van Kleiss's whale…

"Why is the pack here!" Holiday asked,

"I don't know, but we need to get out of here and find Rex." Yin said. A portal opened in front of the ship, which Six was unable to navigate around. Just like that, the ship and its three passengers were transported to a world of black.

"Where are we?" Yin asked.

"I don't know." Six answered. Out of nowhere, something unseen flew through the air and bashed into the ship, causing it to crash into the ground. The ship began to steam, and its three passengers were no longer conscious.

"Who are they?" An unseen being asked another.

"I'm not sure. What should we do?" The other answered.

"Bring them back. They're not of this world." Said the probable commander of the two.

"Yes, sir." The two answered. The beings picked the three up and began walking to where they came from.

The creatures brought the three back to their home, which, like the rest of this place, was pitch black.

"Who are they?" One of the beings asked the commander.

"They're Providence. Just like the boy."

"How did they get here?"

"I sent Kleiss and his 'pack' after them. The girl can teleport. Easy as that."

"Let me change his question." Six asked as he awoke. "Why are we here?"

"Ah, and the second enemy has awoken." The commander spoke.

"Second?" Six questioned.

"Yes, a Providence boy arrived here hours ago."

"Rex." Six whispered under his breath.

"So the boy has a name. I suppose you're wondering the same thing he was-why this world is unseen. The answer is clear. It's the same case as your glasses-we can see you, but you are unable to see us."

"Why did you say was-where is he?" Yin asked as she rose.

"Playing dead to listen in, I presume? Smart girl." The commander commented.

"I asked you a question." Yin said while walking up to the commander and grabbing his collar to lift him in the air. "Where is he."

"The boy is fine. Well…alive." The man said as he grabbed Yin's hand. "Can you see me?"

"No."

"Then how do you know where I am?"

"Humans have more than one sense." She said before punching the man in the nose, which caused him to fall onto the ground. Yin then crouched down beside him. "I'll ask you once more before I kill you: where the hell is he!"

"I'm not telling you." The man said.

"Then you're a fool." Yin said. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a sai. The girl lifted her hand into the air and began to bring it down, but Holiday stopped her before the girl was given the chance to kill. The doctor grabbed the girl's arm and forced it to turn, a motion which resulted in Yin unwillingly throwing her sai into the wall parallel.

"Are you prepared to tell her now?" The doctor asked.

"The boy is in the door to the left. Here is a candle to help you find your way." The commander frantically answered with fear engulfing his voice. The man could be easily heard running out of the room before anyone could view him.

"What, no match?" Holiday asked.

"I have it covered." Yin lit the candle on fire and took it by the holder handle. When the room was lit, it revealed walls painted dark red and a small, rectangular bed against one corner in the room. The room was incredibly simple, yet at the same time, slightly frightening for some unknown reason. Maybe it was just the condition that the observers were in that made the room appear frightening, but maybe it was something greater than that.

"Where's the door?" Holiday asked.

The three looked around the room a little longer, before Six was the first to find the exit. "There." The agent said while pointing to the door.

"Let's just hope that this guy wasn't lying about Rex." Yin said. "This looks like the only way to leave this room that doesn't lead outside, and if the room looks like this; I'm not too psyched to see the rest of this place."

"Neither am I." Holiday said. The three walked over to the door and examined it. "Slight problem; there's no handle." Six inspected the door for a moment before round-housing the center of it. Nothing.

"I don't think it's a normal door, Six." Yin said as she placed her hand against the door. She closed her eyes and blocked out everything in the room except for the door. Instantaneously, the door fell down into the floor and revealed a dusty pathway to another portion of the structure the three were trapped in.

"Let's fine the kid, and get out of here. Quickly. Then we need to find Kleiss." Six stated.

"Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We don't even know if this pathway leads to Rex." Yin added. Suddenly, the three heard a scream of pain erupt from the other end of the wall. They immediately placed the source of the scream.

"Rex!" They all shouted while running down the corridor.

AN:

I've already written the next chapter, so…it should be up within a day or two. I have school tomorrow though, so that sucks. Oh, and where they are will be revealed piece by piece in the next two chapters.
