Hello! This is a blooming romance between Six/Rex. I do not own Generator Rex MOA does. If I DID own Generator Rex, it would go like this:
Yuki hadn't heard from Rex for a couple of days… She sighed as she looked at her iPhone longingly. Sure, he started off as an assignment but she genuinely liked the handsome Latino. She wondered around her kitchen, pouring herself a glass of iced pomegranate green tea. The ice EVO used her powers to chill the glass and was about to take a sip…
"You're supposed to seduce him onto our side not fall in love," came a voice from her living room.
Yuki jumped and screeched out of surprise. The glass slipped from her hand and shattered on the tile. She nervously turned towards the voice…
There, lounging on her sofa, was Van Kleiss…
"You should've found a man to seduce him… Acting skills or not, there's no way I can fake having a dick," Yuki said miserably.
"Hm… I suppose I could've done it myself but he's a bit old for my tastes…"
The ice EVO shivered in disgust…
"I don't know what I should do… I've been acting like that agent and it hasn't worked. I…"
"You slipped up last night while drunk and flirted a little too hard. Six is shy and subtitle."
"I know! I just… Rex is so… Good. What makes you think you can corrupt him anyway?"
"Everyone has their price… It's only a matter of time before I find his. Likely that daughter of his… Take away a man's child and you take away his reason to live."
Yuki turned away so she could pick up the glass shards, 'Monster… Would I have it in me to do that? …Maybe… But not to Rex…'
Yuki's phone went off. She scrambled to pick it up.
"Hello?"
"Yuki! It's me, Rex. I'm sorry I haven't called. Work has been crazy. How about we meet up at your place? I want to pick out some cupcakes for Spirit and the rest of my family."
"Sounds good. What are we going to do?"
"I was thinking we could go to the skating ring."
Yuki's eyes lit up, "Oh wow! Rex! That sounds amazing! Thank you!"
The Latino teen chuckled, "I thought you'd like it… Meet you at your place in an hour?"
"Okay! Bye!"
"Bye."
She hung up her phone and turned to Van Kleiss, "You're going to have to leave if you want this to work."
Van Kleiss glared, "Consider yourself fortunate that you have a date… I'll punish you later."
A red portal appeared and he stepped through it.
Yuki glared after him, 'Weak, stupid man…'
She finished cleaning up the glass and spilled tea before getting ready. Yuki picked out a midnight blue sundress that clung to her like a second skin before flaring out at her hips and ending mid-thigh. It brought out her ice blue eyes perfectly… She grabbed a pair of black heals and her skates.
Yuki was done playing.
Rex was going to belong to her.
No one was going to get in her way…
'And when I'm queen of Abysus I'll have my king and make him help me take over the world…'
Yuki just managed to put on the finishing touches with her make up and hair right before her doorbell rang. She smirked at her reflection before spraying on a bit more tuber rose perfume and heading out the door.
Rex's jaw nearly hit the floor upon laying eyes on Yuki's get up. Sure, her usual burgundy dress was rather revealing, but this was a whole new level of tart verses taste. He knew that he should be turned on to some degree yet all he could think of is Six in his suit. A suit! A suit is pretty much as least revealing as you could get in terms of clothing yet it was so much hotter than blatantly advertising your gender and the curves it graces you with.
"How do I look?" Yuki asked, trying to be "shy" about it.
Rex frowned at her contradictory nature, "You look good…"
'For a streetwalker…'
Yuki smirked, 'Too easy. The whole gay thing must have just been a silly phase.'
"So what kind of cupcakes do you have?" Rex asked, bringing her out of her megalomaniacal thoughts.
"Chocolate snickers, Oreo, vanilla, strawberry shortcake, snicker doodle, key lime, fluffernutter, chocolate raspberry, rum raisin, bananas foster, rose, and pomegranate with ginger icing," Yuki listed in a bored monotone.
Rex smirked, "Cool. I'll take one of each and let them fight over what they want."
Yuki laughed at the mental image of a ninja, a soldier, a mad scientist, and a little girl fighting tooth and nail over cupcake flavors. She was surprised when they were greeted with a friendly, yet unfamiliar face.
"Who are you?" Yuki asked the grunt.
"Edwin Johnson," the young man deadpanned.
Yuki scrunched her nose at his unpleasant tone, 'He'll be the first to die when I'm queen.'
"This is Edwin. He's Spirit's babysitter so to speak," Rex explained.
"Oh."
Yuki ignored the young grunt and opened up the shop to get the cupcakes so she and Rex could finally get to the skating rink. Rex cheerfully paid for them before handing the carefully packaged box over to Edwin.
"Don't stay out too late. Spirit misses her dad," Edwin said.
Rex felt a pang of guilt rush through him as he closed his eyes and hung his head in shame. He had been neglecting his duties as a father for the sake of trying to make things work with Yuki.
'And all for Noah's sake…' he thought out of disgust.
"Right. I'll be back by nine."
Edwin gave him a disbelieving look.
"I mean it."
The grunt merely nodded and boarded the jump jet. Rex sighed, upset that his new friend had clearly taken Six's side on the matter. Not that Six had particularly put up much of a fight for him… The older man was practically shoving him in Yuki's direction, wanting him to be sure as to whom he wanted spend the rest of his life with.
Rex frowned, 'Aren't I a little young to be deciding that anyway?'
Rex felt as though he had taken things a little too seriously regarding his former relationship with Six. It was as though the eighteen-year-old was planning his life around being with the older man forever. It was as though he had been planning his life around marrying Six…
That's when it struck him…
Rex realized that there was nothing that he wanted me than to marry the agent and have a large family with him in Southern France. His thoughts were disrupted at just the right moment. Rex feared that if he dwelled on them any longer he would've been reduced to a sobbing mess.
Yuki latched onto his arm, "Ready?"
Her powers leaked through slightly due to her irritation at being ignored by her date.
Rex shivered, "Can't wait."
"I still can't believe that you're taking me to a skating rink," The ice EVO said, putting on her sweet act.
Rex gave her a playful smirk, "Yeah well… I'm just full of surprises."
"I can't wait to see them all!"
'Me either…'
"We're going to have to fly…"
Yuki jumped up into the air and teleported herself higher, "Lead the way!"
Rex smirked and brought out his sky slyder. It was something he had apparently been working on for a couple of months before he lost his memory. It was steel colored structure was attached to his feet and had a disk at either end. The build was based off of Six's hover board. It was pretty sweet and a lot faster than his boogie pack.
He offered his hand to Yuki, "You might want to hold on tight."
Yuki blushed and took his hand. She wrapped her arms tightly around his chest and stomach, feeling up delicious contours of his muscles. Rex shivered… He wasn't particularly comfortable with her feeling him up like this but the Latino teen was trying to be a gentleman in giving her a ride rather than having her float around and teleport. His new build may have been faster but he didn't relish in the idea of accidentally getting a glimpse of her underwear if she passed him. So offering her a lift was the only acceptable alternative he could think of.
'If she's even wearing any…' Rex thought with a frown, 'If she's even wearing any…' Rex thought with a frown, 'I wonder if Six always preferred boxers…'
The young man berated himself mentally, 'This is going to be a long day…'
Rex flew them towards the rink with a brave smile on his face, 'At least skating will be fun… I hope.'
It was roughly twenty minutes later when he landed just outside the rink.
"Two tickets under Salazar," Rex said to the woman in the ticket booth.
She smiled and took his money in exchange for a pair of bands that they had to wear on their wrists and some freshly sharpened rental skates. Rex wrinkled his nose at the idea of having to wear used skates. He was kind of funny about things like this… He could fight EVOs and get covered in God only knows what yet when it came to another person's footwear… Rex shivered.
'Ew.'
He stuffed his feet in and laced up the skates, 'I should've just come up with a build for this…'
Yuki was already out on the ice, twirling around to the music of Chopin's piano concerto. Rex wobbled as he stepped out onto the ice. He didn't get very far before falling on his ass.
Yuki stopped before him with an amused smile on her face, "You have to put your weight on the inside of your skates."
She helped him up and Rex clung to her a bit before she let go and skated away, "Come and catch me if you want a kiss."
'I may as well sit down then…' Rex thought ruefully.
Regardless, the Latino teen began to slowly wobble around the rink. He slipped and fell on his ass again. Rex got up with a groan and rubbed his sore, frozen backside with a frown. Yuki sighed and led him to the railing on the wall.
"You have to hold onto this or you'll never learn. Now. Once you have a feel for the ice you hold your arms out as though you are trying to balance while walking on a ledge and keep your knees slightly bent. You move your feet in diagonal motions the longer you stride the further you glide," Yuki said.
"How do I stop?"
"Turn your knee inside."
"Okay…"
"You got it?" Yuki said, fidgeting slightly.
"Yeah. Go off and have fun."
Yuki grinned and kissed him before taking off. Everyone had to stop and stare as she glided past with all the grace and beauty of a swan and the seductiveness of a succubus. Rex had to admit it was pretty entertaining watching her dance on the ice but he would trade it in a heartbeat to watch his sweet little mija dance ballet…
Rex sighed, his breath shuttering as he wiped away a tear. He had been a terribly neglectful father but Six had taken it upon himself to look after her like a mother hen since she had grown ill again. Rex couldn't bare looking at Six and seeing the sorrow hidden deep within the older man's eyes.
Rex couldn't stand to see this once proud, courageous man look so defeated and lost. He couldn't stand to see his lively little girl distract herself with books to take away the pain of having a broken family. The Latino teen was crushed that the two people he loved most were the ones who suffered the greatest. And it was all his fault…
The young EVO wiped away a tear and sighed…
Rex gave up on skating. He just wasn't feeling it. He took off the skates and sat on the sidelines, watching Yuki. The young Japanese woman was such a talented beauty. It was as though he was watching a future Olympic gold medalist.
He smiled. Yuki certainly had admirable qualities, but there was just something wrong about her. She seemed to be contradicting herself left and right. One second she was shy and almost submissive the next she was seductive and dominating.
It was a full hour before Yuki realized that Rex had given up and was watching her from the stands. She frowned and skated over.
"You gave up," Yuki stated.
Rex shrugged, "Skating really isn't my thing I guess."
Yuki removed her skates, "Maybe we could do something you like…"
Rex shrugged, "Its nearly lunch time. Why don't we get some take out and have a picnic in the park?"
"Sounds lovely. I'm craving Mexican," she purred seductively into his ear.
Rex smirked, getting tired of her contradictory nature, "I'm craving Cajun."
"Cajun?"
"Six introduced me to it. Wonderful stuff. Spicy and smoky."
The Latino teen felt his face heat up ever so slightly as he thought more of a certain "spicy" agent with his sexy, "smoky" voice…
'Fuck! I'm losing him! How does that meddlesome bastard do it? How is it that Six is ruining my chances when he's not even here?' Yuki thought furiously as she began to panic.
Yuki cleared her throat, "Right… How about Vietnamese instead?"
Rex smirked, "Sounds good."
'Now I have to decide if I want to keep her around as a friend or not,' Rex decided, 'Maybe she wouldn't be so damn annoying if I can get her to actually be herself.'
Rex led her to Vietnamese place that was about a block and a half away. Yuki insisted that they eat inside instead because she didn't want to get her dress messy. They sat and ate in a very awkward silence.
Rex simply had no idea how to talk to her now. Yuki couldn't seem to get a conversation going. She said the only thing that she could think of…
"Rex… I want to join Providence. I read over some old news articles and you guys do such important work… I want to be apart of it even if it means taking orders," Yuki said.
Rex's eyes lit up, "Really? We can do as soon as we get the check! You'll get used to it. Six and Callan are very fair leaders. Mi hermano makes amazing smoothies. Spirit is the cutest little girl you'll ever meet. You'll love her!"
That got Rex excited. He was practically bouncing off the walls of the restaurant. Yuki had to resist from rolling her eyes as he went on and on about his daughter. She hated children. Being around children was like being pecked to death by ducks for her what with their screeching voices, filthy hands, and rebellious nature.
'There just may be some hope for her after all…' The Latino teen thought as he brought out his sky slyder and took off, "Come on!"
Yuki rolled her eyes and took to the air, teleporting behind him as she didn't know the way. It was clear to her that Rex spent more time with Six than he did with her, maybe if she could worm her way into his life she could get between them…
Yuki wanted her empire. It would be EVOs against humans and she would use Van Kleiss to infect the world before taking over his throne…
Six looked out the kitchen and saw Rex land at Providence with Yuki by his side. The agent closed his eyes and looked away. Spirit kept a close eye on her father from the table. He looked even sadder than usual…
Rex grabbed Yuki's hand and led her inside, passing the kitchen, "Six!"
"In here," Six deadpanned, trying to keep his voice even.
"Yuki wants to join Providence!" Rex declared with a grin.
Six took a deep breath and let it out shakily, "Stop by admissions and get her a form."
Spirit got up and walked over to her daddy. She hid behind him and peered up at the woman who was responsible for breaking her family apart. Spirit hadn't felt any hatred or bitterness towards people before. Not even towards the scientists that tortured her everyday for five years straight. She mostly felt sad for them because she figured they were the way they were because their mommies and daddies didn't love them. Spirit wondered if it was the same with Yuki or if she was really just a mean person.
"Aw… Well aren't you cute!" Yuki said in a falsely cheerful voice as she bent to Spirit's level.
Spirit glared up at the ice EVO and hid behind her father. The woman sounded so fake… She was bad and she didn't wear enough clothing.
'Little brat,' Yuki thought with a frown.
"She's a little shy," Rex said.
"No she isn't. She doesn't like your new girlfriend," Six said frankly.
Rex's eyes widened in shock… Six was usually so quiet… He generally wasn't one to speak his mind simply because very few people cared to listen unless he was barking out orders. They often mistakenly wrote Six off as a brainless killing machine. Six wasn't a genius like Holiday or Cesar but he could easily hold his own in an intellectual conversation with them.
"Excuse me! Who the hell do you think you are?" Yuki demanded.
"You're new team leader. If you don't like it than leave."
"You're just a weak human! You're beneath people like Rex and me."
"I may not have super powers but I am the sixth most dangerous man in the world."
"What's so dangerous about you?"
"I kill the people who try to ruin my family," Six growled.
Rex stepped in between them, "Guys. Seriously. Enough."
"Oh Rex… You're on my side right… I'll make it worth your while…" Yuki purred as she went to coil herself around Rex like a snake.
Six had had enough! Rex was only torturing them both by putting up this ridiculous façade of being straight… He wordlessly guided Yuki off to the side by her shoulder and approached Rex.
"Six?" Rex asked, giving him a look of curiosity.
The older man leaned in and pressed a tender kiss to Rex's lips, causing the teen's eyes to widen in shock. The Latino eventually regained his senses and kissed him back…
'Finally,' Rex thought, 'Something that feels right…'
"Vous rencontrezle destin, de devenir votre ami a été un choix, mais tomber en amour avec vous, je n'avais aucun contrôle sur," Six said, pressing his forehead against Rex's.
The younger man trembled as a tear rolled down his cheek. He pulled Six into a passionate kiss, clinging to him like a lifeline.
"Argh!" Yuki screamed as she sent a torrent of ice shards Six's way.
Rex broke the kiss when he heard Holiday scream. Six's eyes widened and his face contort in pain… His back and shoulders felt as though they were on fire. There were small hands clutching the back of his blazer…
The agent went to say something only to gurgle as blood dribbled out of the corner of his mouth. He heard something hit the floor behind him before he blacked out, slumping against Rex.
The teen looked in horror as his daughter and his love lay unconscious and heavily bleeding on the floor. He was in too much shock to move. Holiday quickly stepped forward and placed Spirit's hand in Six's so the little girl would heal him as she healed herself.
"Get them to the med lab!" The doctor ordered.
A couple of grunts rushed forward to take them away only to be thrown back by a powerful blast icy wind.
Yuki glared, "No! I won't let him steal Rex from me! Rex is mine!"
Rex was seeing red… He brought out her smack hands and slammed her into a wall.
"I don't belong to anyone but this man and our daughter!"
His grip tightened and Yuki struggled to breath… She began to wheeze as a couple of her ribs broke and came dangerously close to puncturing her lungs.
"This isn't you, kid. You kill her and you'll never forgive yourself. You'll be left broken and fucked up and that's not the type of dad Ghost needs," Conrí said as he placed a hand on the younger man's shoulder.
Rex let her go… The ice EVO's unconscious body hit the ground with a thud. He stared at the three of them with shock and sorrow written all over his face.
'It's all my fault…'
The grunts got up and rushed towards Six and Spirit. The little girl's powers had kicked in and she was already healing both of them. They took them to the lab. Holiday quickly followed.
"Well, get a move on kid," Conrí said as he headed for the nearest exit.
Rex snapped out of his stupor, "Wait… Where are you going?"
"Out. No offense but this is the perfect distraction."
Rex shook his head as he watched Conrí disappear. The Latino teen took a deep breath and made his way to the lab. Six and Spirit were snuggled up on the bed. If it weren't for the bloody clothes you could swear that they were sound asleep. Holiday was hovering over them. Ther was really nothing she could do since Spirit was doing all the work so she left.
Rex nodded to Edwin who was frowning at the foot of the bed.
"She's out of your life," Edwin stated rather than asked.
"Yes. Unless she becomes a villain," Rex said with a frown.
"She attacked a child. I'd reckon that's villainous enough, mijo," Cesar said.
Rex grinned, "You reckon? I reckon you're picking up on Callan's colloquialisms."
Cesar laughed, "And you're picking up on Six's! Using big words like that."
Callan poked his head in, "We have her in lock down. White had us through her in the "hot seat"."
"What's the "hot seat"?" Rex asked.
"Fancy term for no air conditionn' cause the heater's always blazin'. We have her strapped in and if she uses her ice powers they'll just melt in the heat."
"It's not going to kill her is it?"
"What does it matter? She's evil!" Edwin shouted.
"She's still a person!"
Cesar sighed, "I'm afraid that I have to side with Edwin on this."
"Your judgment of late has been lackin'," Callan added.
Rex stared at them briefly in disbelief before hanging his head in shame, "I know it has…"
The young man nearly jumped out of his skin when he felt a cold hand wrap around his. He looked down and saw a very pale looking Six staring impassively up at him. Rex closed his eyes and looked away. He simply couldn't face him right now. Rex tried to shake him off but Six held on tighter.
"Don't. I just got you back," the agent said tiredly.
He shot the others a look as Rex sank brokenly into a chair a bit his lip to stifle a sob. Edwin and Callan nodded in respect to the agent before turning to leave. Cesar gave Rex's shoulder a comforting squeeze before joining them.
Rex wiped his eyes and tried to stop crying, "How's Spirit?"
"Her breathing evened out. She's sound asleep."
Rex nodded.
"You know what you want now," Six stated.
"I think I always knew… I… I don't…"
Six sighed, "It's alright. I went through a period of doubt myself years ago. I went the wrong way."
"Why?"
"Honestly… I think I was slightly afraid to turn down someone as volatile as Five."
Rex's jaw dropped, "That pink haired loud mouth is your ex?"
Six gave him a wary smirk, "I didn't have much taste back then…"
Rex chuckled sadly, "Still… I'm so sorry for causing you and Spirit so much pain. I should've…"
Six cut him off by tightening his grip.
"Don't beat yourself up over it. You're young. You had to make sure that you were making the right decision. I don't want you to one day wake up and resent the life we had built because you were unsure. The only thing you should've done was spend more time with our daughter."
"I don't deserve either of you…"
Six sighed, "I feel the same way everyday. Like I will one day wake up and this will all have been a dream and I am still with Two through Five in my own private hell."
The agent's eyes started to droop, "I've lost a lot of blood. Spirit's powers may not have the ability to restore blood cells. I can't keep my eyes open anymore…"
Rex chuckled, "Don't apologize…"
"Don't run away," Six said in an almost pleading voice before closing his eyes.
"I promise," Rex whispered as he choked back his tears.
The younger man sat in the chair beside their bed and held his beloved's hand throughout the night, valiantly ignoring the tears that simply refused to stop.
Hello! Hello! I would like to apologize for the delay. A lot of shit happened this month. Lets see… First I got a job at a pet shop. Then I lost it after two weeks despite selling a $70 rabbit and a $900 puppy in THIS economy no less. Yeah, I don't get it either… I bitched about it on my DA account just for the sake of venting. Fortunately I still have my maid job. I wrote two articles for my friend's news blog. THEN my air conditioner broke and having a hot laptop on your lap in a house that's 86 degrees sucks ass so I didn't write for a FULL WEEK. It drove me mad.
On an unrelated note, someone suggested that I reveal Six's past in this chapter. I considered it but it simply didn't fit with what I had planned. So Six's past will be more or less revealed in the next chapter.
Also, I felt so bad about being so late with an update that I wrote chapter three of "Baby Spirit" too. Enjoy!
