A/N: This story has such a mind of it's own it isn't even funny anymore. Like, I want it to be longer, and SirenSounds97 helped me get over my not having a plan, but this thing is a spoiled brat that doesn't want to cooperate. Where are you heading little plunny?

Sorry for the late update, I was planning on updating this morning, but I completely forgot. Way too much work to do in school.

Quick reminder, I wrote a disclaimer on my profile, but I shall reiterate that I don't own Generator Rex. However I'm looking into owning MOA so maybe I can have never-ending stories... Just kidding!

Chapter 7~

"Grrrr."

"Be quiet, stomach, you know we can't do anything about it."

The organ didn't listen, instead choosing to make an even louder growling sound in retaliation. The boy frowned, staring down in aggravation. He was hungry, and he was on the fritz, captured by crazy people-eating penguins that probably would be especially happy to eat him. It was a good thing he could protect himself, oh wait! He couldn't...

"Grrrr."

"Traitor." Rex grumbled.

"Rex..." a voice whispered on the air, low but still distinguishable to the boys sensitive ears. For a moment, he thought he had imagined it, that now in addition to everything else, his mind was playing tricks on him, but then it came again, just the slightest bit louder than the first. "Rex, if you can hear me nod your head."

The boy nodded, at last recognizing the voice as belonging to his guardian.

"Good, I need you to listen closely, I have a plan."

Rex smiled as the plan unfolded, hope blossoming in his chest and a spark of mischief returned to his brown eyes. Six gave him an idea as well…

"73 speckled frogs, sat on a speckled log! Eating the most delicious bugs, yum yum! One jumped into the pool, where it was nice and cool, now there are 72 speckled frogs glub glub."

The Izumee guards groaned as their prisoner continued this ridiculous and horribly off-key song he'd begun singing a few hours ago. So far this was the second song of similar origins, the first being about bottles of milk on the wall. The guard couldn't understand how his brain hadn't exploded yet, but he was pretty sure it would be soon.

"68 speckled frogs-"

"Stop! Just…Please stop!" the other guard pleaded, the first sighing in relief at the respite, however brief it would most likely prove to be.

"Why should I? I'm bored, and you can't do anything about it unless you want to let me go."

"You know we cannot!"

The grin on the boys face was similar to a leopard seal about to eat its prey. He may be weak, but he was not defenseless. He would use his unique skill to tick people off to get himself out, even if he was getting tired of the songs as well. He knew he was running out of time before he wouldn't be able to sit up, let alone actually escape. "Then I'll just keep going. Hmm, what number was I at? Guess I'll just have to start back at-"

"No!" the two guards begged. "We-we'll find you some food."

"Pass."

"Water?"

"No thank you."

"Then what?!"

Rex leaned forward as far as he could through the bars of his cell "I want to be out of this cramped cave you call a prison cell. Let me out a bit, just to stretch my legs, and you won't have to hear me sing anymore."

The EVOs glared at him before turning to confer with one another in a small huddle. Rex laughed silently to himself, they thought they were being quiet, but in truth their voices echoed right into the chamber he was being held in. The boy sat back as he allowed the two to weigh the pros and cons of setting him free.

"If we let him go, we won't have to hear him sing anymore."

"But if we do that, and he escapes, we won't have our extra food. Or worse, Leader will feed us to the leopard seals."

The first guard looked back at the boy who had resumed his singing once more. The penguin winced. "I'll take my chances."

"99 little-"

"Alright! If we let you out for a little bit, do you promise not to run away?"

Rex smiled in victory, "Of course, that's all I ask." he lied.

The mutated penguins released the boy, eyeing him critically. "Now don't go wandering off, ok? I-"

But whatever he was going to say was cut off abruptly as a green suited figure dropped from the sky, seemingly out of nowhere, instantly knocking out the guards.

"Sweet dreams, weirdos, it was nice knowing you!" Rex taunted, following the ninja away from the tribe and hopefully towards some safety.

A/N: Yay! Another chapter! I hope my five readers liked it (five because that's about how many reviews I get a chapter. Actually, I'm being generous. Come on guys!), I tried to put some humor in here for your reading pleasure. As always, please tell me what I did wrong and how I can improve. I need your help to grow, my lovelies! Help me grow!

Reviews! Thank you to thereal13thfirewolf, YellowAngela, and alexina23

I adore all of you for following and favoriting and just being awesome in general.

Edit 12/29/16- since I forgot to say so when I originally posted this chapter, the book I referenced before was a series called the Books of Umber by P.W. Catanese. Excellent books I highly recommend.

Just some slight typo fixes.
