Six stood on a chair...well a couple chairs, trying to get into a vent. The ape walked in, "Hey kid, what are you doing?" The kid looked down and thought hard at what he was going to say. "Aunt Holi wants to give me a shot." Bobo chuckled, "You could've just have got me, I would've helped ya hide." The boy raised an eyebrow. Bobo smirked a bit, "Ok, I would've made a deal." Six rolled his eyes and went on to the task at hand.
The door slid open once more and Rex walked in, "There you are. Trying to get away?" Six jumped down and ran under Rex's legs. Rex turned around and tripped the boy. Six fell on his hands and glared back at Rex. Rex walked over and slung Six over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. Six grumbled and still cursing his new age. Rex walked to Holiday's lab and placed the five year old on the table. Six glared at Rex and crossed his arms. Rex laughed, "That doesn't work on me when you're that age." Six looked away from Rex and out the window.
Holiday entered the room and smiled at Rex, "I see you found him." Rex nodded and smirked, "He was trying to hide in the vents." Holiday chuckled and bent down in front of Six, "Looks like someone is afraid of needles." Six sneered, "I'm not afraid! I just...don't like them." Six looked at the ground, thinking of many ways to kill the teen, "Don't you want to be back to normal Six?" Six moved her hand away from him and looked back at the window.
She went back to her table of instruments and took out a small needle. She went over to Six and held out his arm. She drew a small ounce of blood from the small arm and placed a band-aid on his little wound, "See. That wasn't so hard." Six rubbed his arm and scooted away. Holiday went to place the blood under a microscope. She looked at it for a bit and turned to a metal cabinet and unlocked it. She opened the door and pulled out a gas mixture. The gas was pinkish, like the one that the crab sprayed, but was darker.
She put some of the gas on the blood and looked through the scope again. She sighed, "I was sure that would work. But apparently it only made things worse." She placed the jar back into the cabinet. "Sorry Six, have to wait a little longer." She turned to Six who just shrugged, "Ok. I don't want to get younger, I'll wait." Holiday blinked back in surprised, not expecting Six to say that he was fine being young for a little more.
Rex helped Six down as the screen came up with White. He turned towards Holiday, "Have you found his cure yet?" She placed a hand on her hip and gestured to Six, "Does he look like he's cured?" White glanced at the little boy. His expression did not change, "Well find a cure for him quick, he is a liable asset. But if you can't find it in a week's time, he is out of the building. Even if he was a good agent, Providence isn't going to raise a kid. This is a fighting agency, not a day care. So hurry with it!" The monitor switched off and Holiday mumbled, "Selfish basterd." Rex glared at the screen and looked down at Six. Six didn't even seem fazed by the fact that if he isn't cured, he would be sent somewhere else...like an orphanage.
Six kicked the floor a bit, "I forgot how much I wanted him to drown in lemon juice." Rex smirked, glad that Six could still not be hurt by a comment. He ruffled Six's hair and Six pushed his hand away.
Rex and Six were playing chess in Rex's room, and Six was kicking Rex's ass. "King me." Rex crossed his arms, "Damn it, how come you're good at chess? You're five!" Six shrugged, "Well I still have my brains. That and you suck." Rex narrowed his eyes, "What ever. Chess is stupid." Six rolled his eyes when the warning lights came up. The lights were flashing a red glow. Rex narrowed his eyes, "What?"
White came up on a screen, again, and said, "Rex, we have a code red. We have a massive swarm of evos in New York. You and almost the whole base have to go now." Rex raised his eye brow, "It's so bad that most of the base has to go?" White nodded, "Yes. The only ones staying are a few guards and your brother, who is occupied in his lab." The monitor switched off and Rex turned to Six. He said firmly, "I'll be back in an hour or two. Don't damage anything."
Rex ran out of the room, leaving Six alone. Six waited a while until he left the room that smelled like a zoo. Six was so board. He didn't like that he wasn't able to fight because that's all he liked doing. Six wandered through out the building until he spotted Cesar's Lab. Since the rest of the building was a ghost town, he walked into it.
César was messing with something in the back. He glanced over, "Hey Six." Six blinked back, "Who told you?" César laughed, "Holiday did. She needed help finding the cure for your youngness. So, what'cha need?" Six shook his head, "Nothing, just board." The Mexican nodded, "Ya. Understand your problem. Wanna help me?" Six grimaced and shook his head. César laughed again, "Alright." He went back to work, as if nobody just interrupted him. Six shook his head and left, trying to find something to do.
Six walked to a hallway that over looked the petting zoo. He glanced down and sighed. He thought back to when White said that he would throw him out if Holiday doesn't have a cure soon. He also thought when Holiday said that the thing she whipped up didn't cure what ever he had. Six didn't like being small and helpless anymore. He was so close to a breakdown when Holiday said she didn't have a cure, but kept a mask that he still had in him, and kept it up to not hurt Holiday's or Rex's feelings...or something. Six wanted to scream at White but he still had a bit of that mask left over and decided it would be a waste to pull it down then.
Six sat on the floor and pulled his knees to his chest. He stared down at the evos that lived in the zoo. Six didn't want to be five anymore. He hated being five when he was five...before this happened. He was homeless, he was lonely...being five was not a fun time for him. It wasn't fun for him now. He felt horribly worthless and a bother. Six sighed once more and buried his head in his legs.
Six sat there a bit until he heard a noise. He lifted his head and glanced around. He heard the noise again. He went to the direction of it and followed it. The noise went off again and he defiantly could tell that it was a growl. Six stepped a bit closer to it before he was glowing red eyes. Six's eyes widen and dodged long, gray claws. The boy ran down the hall. He looked back to see Biowulf prowling after him. Six tried to run faster but his stubby little legs wouldn't allow him to.
Biowulf caught up with him and slashed out his claws. Six dodged the hit by turning a corner. The evo hit the wall but followed the boy. Six was a chair in the middle of the hallway and slid underneath it. Biowulf leaped over the obstacle and kept on going at Six. Biowulf ran faster and leaped in the air. He landed in front of Six. Six back peddled a bit, trying to turn his body the other direction. Biowulf grabbed the hem of Six's collar and pulled Six up. "Look who we have here." Six began to struggle and fail his feet around.
The evo chuckled, "No way you are going to escape my grasp, Agent." Six widen his eyes.
Rex was very confused.
The teen was standing in the air craft passing back and forth. Yes, Rex was confused. He was confused because one minute he was kicking evo butt, a lot of evo butts actually. There were swarms of evos, too many to count. He was smashing one to the ground when, all of a sudden, they all decided to retreat. It didn't look like they were scared, they didn't look scared, but it looked like they were called back. He just couldn't figure out why though.
Holiday watched the boy and felt his confusion as well. Something just wasn't right.
They landed in the landing bay and walked in. Once they stepped out of the landing bay, they saw Cesar being held up by another agent. Rex and Holiday ran up to the man. Rex saw that he had a few cuts on his face. Rex asked, "What happened bro?" Cesar looked away, with a mourning type look on his face. He said slowly, "Kliess has him." Rex furrowed his brow, thinking what the hell his brother meant.
Rex widens his eyes, understanding what 'him' meant.
They kidnapped Six.
