Japanese translation at the end!

"Six! Six! I know you can hear me!"

Holiday's voice brought Agent Six out of his slumber. His chest felt heavy. . . and warm? Six cracked open and eye to see Rex's head and arm sprawled across his chest. The boy only had on what seemed to be boxers. 'What the hell? Rex. . . why is he. . . oh god' Memories of the night before rushed back. Anger swelled inside of Six. 'Van Kleiss' Pushing his anger aside he looked down at the boy. Next to the evo's head, on Six's chest, was his ear bud. Rex had probably pulled it out in his sleep.

"SIX!"

The agent jerked slightly before sighing and clicking a button on his own ear bud.

"Yes, Holiday?" He asked, voice monotone.

"Do you know where Rex is? He didn't show up for his morning appointment and Bobo says he saw Rex run out of his room in the middle of the night. I think he might have gone AWOL again."

"Yes, I have seen him. He's here with me actually."

"Oh, well, where are you guys?"

". . . my room. . ."

"Excuse me?"

Six flinched slightly as he heard Holiday's mother tone. Shit, he didn't mean it to sound like that.

"Yeah, he was simple asking me a question about the new form of fighting I'm training him in."

"Ok, can I talk to him?"

"Sorry, he's a little occupied but I'll bring him over to you soon. Give him about 15 minuets."

"Wait a sec-" Six clicked off his ear bud, cutting Holiday off.

Six felt slightly guilty for lying to her. Sure he was teaching Rex a new fighting style, but last night. . . The agent sighed again and brushed back his hair from his eyes. It had grown a little, he would need to cut it soon.

"Thanks"

Six looked down at Rex, who had now turned over. His doe brown eyes stared up into Six's exposed miss-matched eyes.

"For what?"

"For not telling Holiday"

"Rex, all last night your biometrics kept dropping and spiking again. Right now they seem to be stable but. . . did something happen?"

Rex shuffled slightly on the exam table.

"Nah Doc, don't know what happened."

"Yeah right kid," Bobo spoke up from where he sat next to Six. "I heard you screaming in your sleep last night. I also saw as your tumbled out of our room."

"Screaming? Bobo, you said you only saw him leave. And one of you should have come to me. Rex, you should have told me if something happened, and Bobo, you should have told me when something did happen!"

Rex frowned and pulled his shirt back on over his head.

"Look, I just had a bad dream and went out for a quick walk, okay."

Bobo scoffed "Kid, you left at two in the morning and never came back. That's not what I call a quick stroll around."

Holiday sighed and turned to Six. "When did you find him?"

"Found him in the private training rooms at 7. Helped him with his form till you called at 8." Six quickly lied.

Holiday sighed again. "Okay Rex, stand up and show us your boogie pack. Tell me about this nightmare."

Rex brought out his boogie pack on his back before speaking.

"It was just about an evo, nothing big."

"Hmm"

Holiday circled his pack and tapped on certain parts, all the while looking at his biometrics.

"Come on Rex, actually think back to the dream. What happened?"

The teenager's mind floated back to his dream, his memory. His sight grew fuzzy and he could smell the blood of the past.

Pain, mind numbing pain. 7 year old Rex cried as his brother finished with him and pulled out. A loud snap was heard as the child was dropped to the floor, his shoulder breaking.

"B-Brother, w-why are y-you doing this?"

16 year old Van Kleiss leaned over Rex's limp body, he zipped up his pants.

"Oh Rekkusu-chan" Van Kleiss said, reverting back to Rex's Japanese name "you wont tell, will you?"

He grinned down and pulled back Rex's head by his hair.

"You wouldn't betray your beloved Nii-san, would you my otouto? What would Otu-san think?"

Rex shivered as his brother talked between English and Japanese. They had, after all, lived in Japan for four year.

"N-No Ivan-Nii-san"

Van Kleiss, or Ivan smiled. He pulled back his leg and kicked Rex hard in the ribs. The boy gasped and tried to breath.

"Good otouto"

Ivan smiled before turning and leaving the boy alone in the run down lab. Rex laid there before reaching over and pulling on his clothes. He limped out the door to go back home, blood dripping from his pants.

Rex swayed where he stood, his boogie pack falling apart from his back. Holiday jumped back to evade the falling metal before looking over at the young evo.

"Rex?"

She glanced down at his biometrics.

"My god! His biometrics suddenly plummeted! Six, help me! I need to get a reading of his brain. Let's get him into the MRI"

Holiday and Six carefully guided a dazed Rex around the dead boogie pack and to the MRI machine. Bobo watched worriedly. Once Rex was three feet from the machine, all hell broke loose.

"IIE, NII-SAN! IPPAI DESU! NII-SAN, SHUUSHI! NAZE IVAN-NII-SAN!"

Rex screamed and tried to pull himself away from Holiday and Six. He was able to get from Holiday and swung out at her. She dogged and backed away to retrieve a sedative. Bobo tried to get Rex's attention.

"Kid! Hey kid! Calm down! It was just a dream, nothin' gonna' get ya while we're here!"

Rex still howled bloody murder and threw a punch and Six's face. The agent easily ducked and grabbed Rex's other arm. He pulled the boy into his chest and held him tight. Rex stopped struggling and came back to the real world, but his noise did not stop. He sobbed into Six's chest. The teenager's legs buckled underneath him and Six caught him just in time.

The Providence agent picked up Rex bridle style, the young evo was quickly falling unconscious. Holiday stood shocked to the side next to Bobo, syringe held loosely in her hand.

"I'm going to take him back to my room, he can get some rest there."

"Six. . . do you know what's going on?"

". . . yeah. . ."

"Well Mr. Green ninja, tell us" Bobo finally came out of his shock and spoke up.

"It's not for me to tell, it's for Rex to tell if he wishes."

With that said, the green clad agent left, Rex held tightly in his arms.
