Grey Scheme

"My lord," Van Kleiss turned around to look at Bio-Wolf, "Cho is now at Providence with Rex." He smirked.

"Well, that's progress. Our little wolf will come home to the Pack when she's gotten her prey."

Cho opened one eye and looked at the room she was in. Dr. Holiday was fast asleep on the couch. Her wolves were huddled around her, waiting to be woken up so they could help her with her mission. Cho sat up, stretching and noticed how she was dressed in a hospital gown once more. You'd think they'd have other clothes instead of this. She thought angrily. Stepping onto the ground without a sound, she crept up to the door. Aimi woke up as well and followed her. The hallway was blinding white with dim lights since most of the personal was sleep. No doubt, Rex would be asleep as well. Cho shook her head, she had work to do. Walking down the hallway, her feet didn't even make a tapping sound against the cold white tile floor. If her hair and skin and eyes were white, she'd probably blend right in. Aimi certainly did, even though her eyes were bright blue. After about an hour, she came to a door labeled 'Computer Room'. Bingo! Cho thought before stepping aside, letting Aimi stand in front of the door. Her big, furry shoulders were square with the doorframe and slowly she evaporated into mist, slipping under the door.

Aimi wafted to the top of the ceiling, covering the security cameras until you saw nothing but white. Part of her reached down and jammed up the security lock, opening it for Cho. "Good Aimi-chan, perfect." Cho closed the door and sat down in the chair, facing the computer. She reached into her one of the ribbons tying up her pigtails; she pulled out a small chip and pushed it into the computer. The computer shot open, asking for a password. Cho typed in 'White Knight' and it immediately let her in. Too easy…Cho clicked multiple files and saw one that said 'Nanite Tracking Maps'. That was probably her target. Looking into the file, she found a program that Providence created to track every Nanite in the world. She downloaded the program into her chip and waited. It was going to take two minutes.

Dr. Holiday woke up in the middle of the night to see only Daiki and Himitsu on the bed, sound asleep. Cho was nowhere in the room. Now she could panic. She didn't know the nature of Cho's loyalty and God knew what she was doing. She opened the door quickly just to see Cho walking down the hallway with a cup and Aimi. "Cho, where did…why weren't you in bed?" She asked, worried. Cho looked at her with a raised eyebrow and held up her cup, which was filled with water. "You could have asked me…" Cho shrugged, taking a swig of her water before entering the room. Aimi brushed past Dr. Holiday and went back into the bed with Cho. Himitsu moved over and let the white she-wolf lay in his previous spot. "Well…next time, ask me, you really scared me." Cho went under the blanket and pulled it from other the wolves before them with it. She looked at Dr. Holiday, who had the lights on. They stared at each other for a moment. "Dr. Roscoe is going to call tomorrow. She was really excited to hear that you were back. Do you want to talk to her?" Cho felt that cold spot on her head again.

"…Fine…"

"You really love those wolves, huh?" She asked. Cho raised an eyebrow. "Obvious, then…what are their names?"

"…Himitsu, Daiki, and Aimi…" She recited.

"What kind of wolves are they?"

"Aimi is a girl, and she's a Baffin Island wolf. Daiki is male, and he is a Tibetan wolf. And Himitsu is a male, and he is a British Columbian wolf." Cho suddenly felt very animated, talking about her wolves. She told Dr. Holiday that Aimi's scientific name was Canis lupus manningi, that Himitsu's scientific name was Canis lupus columbianus, and Daiki's was Canis lupus chanco.

"That's interesting. You know all about your wolves, don't you?" Dr. Holiday wanted to ask why a Tibetan wolf, a Daffin Island wolf, and a British Columbian wolf were wandering around Japan, but she knew better then to make Cho think she was suspicious. In actuality, Cho herself didn't really know. Cho yawned and laid her head down, falling fast asleep.

"WAKE UP!" Cho and her wolves jumped in surprise, ready to attack, to find Rex on the ground. He was laughing so hard, he had to clutch his stomach. Cho glared and muttered-

"Daiki." The big grey wolf shook his fur and laid on top of Rex's head, earning muffled protests. Finally, Rex was able to heave Daiki off him and sat up.

"Man, what are you trying to do? Suffocate me?" He asked.

"What were you trying to do? Give me a heart attack?" Cho retaliated.

"Tu che." (I believe that's how you spell it) Rex got up and smiled. "Breakfast time!" Cho swung her legs over the side of the bed and stretched. Rex blushed. Her hospital gown ended at her thighs and it didn't have sleeves, so he was a bit...bashful.

"Well, are you going to leave or do you want to watch me dress?" She asked, smirking. Rex blushed even harder before ruffling her hair. "HEY! Stop!" She squealed, grabbing her now messy hair. Her ribbons were going to fall out any minute now.

"Payback. I'm going to wait outside the door." Rex exited and waited for half a minute when she came out wearing what she wore the day before. She looked at him. "You sure do shower quickly for someone who spends most of her time in the forest."

"Just because I sleep and live in the forest, doesn't mean I don't bathe."

"I...don't think I want to know." She laughed and took his arm, pretty much telling him that he was going to escort her and her three wolves to the cafeteria.

In the cafeteria, there was cereal, eggs, bacon, everything you'd want for breakfast. Cho filled her plate up with fruits and ham and got a cup of hot cocoa. She did something strange, she sat next to the table, with her wolves. "Err...Cho, why don't you sit here?" Rex asked. Bobo looked from his newspaper and looked at her while Daiki stole some meat from his plate.

"I sit with my wolves." She said bluntly, biting into an apple. Rex looked over. Some people were looking. Rex moved his plate and sat next to her, smiling at Cho.

"Well, I wanted to sit next to you anyway." Bobo shook his head.

"Now that's monkey business." He muttered, reaching for his meat when he noticed Daiki had it. "Alright, don't you feed them?" Cho looked over at Bobo, putting on her emotionless face. Himitsu and Daiki began fighting over the meat. Aimi was stealing some meat from the buffet and the chef was too busy being afraid of her to shoo her away. She's a big wolf. Cho sighed and whistled, bringing them all over.

"Goodness, you guys...stay near me..." Cho scolded, giving them each a bit of food from her plate. "They like to annoy other EVOs. It's sort of their favorite hobby."Cho said, smiling sweetly at Bobo. Bobo blushed and scoffed.

"Oh it's nothing." Rex smiled at her, she was such a charmer. Dr. Holiday came in, smiling at her.

"Cho, I have Dr. Roscoe on the phone." Cho looked up at her and stood, following her out the room. They went directly to White Knight's office where White Knight was on the left sign of the screen, Dr. Roscoe was on the other side. When she saw Cho, her eyes shone brightly and before Cho could even blink, she started.

"Cho, OH MY GOODNESS! DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I'VE BEEN? ARE YOU OKAY? ARE YOU HURT? DID SOMETHING HAPPEN TO YOU!" Cho went through question after question, only answering with silence. Cho looked at her when she calmed down.

"Ohiyo gozaimasu, Dr. Roscoe."

"Cho, answer me. Did they do anything to hurt you?"

"Nothing."

"What is this about three wolf EVOs?" As if on cue, there was a huge smoke cloud that slid under the automatic door without trouble. The three wolves materialized out of it, sitting down in a row next to her.

"My pets, Aimi, Daiki, and Himitsu." Cho said, pointing to each.

"Cho, we're going to have you transported back to the Angel's Cradle where you belong and you are not to run away again, am I understood." White Knight said in a business-like manner.

"Noooo..." Cho whined, shaking her head. "Don't want to go." She crossed her arms defiantly. "I want to stay here."

"Cho, that is not your decision."

"I worked too hard to escape my cage, it's my decision whether you like it or not, Frosty." White Knight glared at her.

"I will not tolerate such disrespect."

"I will not tolerate such disrespect!" Himitsu mimicked forming his growls to sound like words.

"That's enough out of you!" White Knight shouted at Himitsu. "And you have no say in where you will be stationed." He pointed at Cho. Himitsu, Aimi, and Daiki jumped to their feet and began barking fiercely at his picture on the screen. They huddled around Cho protectively and kept barking and growling. Dr. Holiday backed up slowly, she didn't want to be in the way if they started attacking the screen. "Calm your pets down."

"Oh, go suck on your milk."

"How dare you-"

"ENOUGH!" Dr. Roscoe shouted at him. "Of course Cho is going to be...difficult when you say she doesn't have a choice, didn't you hear what happened to Six?" She scolded him. "Cho is a child, not a weapon! She has as many rights as you do." Dr. Roscoe said. "Cho, I know you had so many bad memories here...and, even though we want you back, you can stay there as long as you like..." Cho looked at her like a child watching her mother cry. Dr. Roscoe was crying. "But, remember to call me or send me and Joseph letters on how you're doing...and remember that we love you like our own daughter...and you can always come back whenever you like..." With that said, her part of the screen went black. Cho turned around as White Knight was about to speak and left the room with her wolf EVOs. Her heart hurt.

Cho is a double agent for both the Pack and Providence. Will Rex ever get her truly on his side or is she really lost in darkness forever? Only time will tell as Rex has to battle with his emotions and Cho, the girl he can't get off his mind.

Rex-Seriously! Stop with the narration!
