A.N. ... sooo... yeah I recieved a promise of shared pitchforks and lit torches if this chapter weren't done by Oct. 11 so hopefully this is okay. Also I do like the advice you gave me; however when I have an idea it is kinda hard for me to just let it sit and marinate for a few years, when I get an idea it just kinda happens, but because of that I procrastinate horrible and thus nothing gets updated cause I can't focus on what I was writing before hand, however I refuse to be one of those writers who drops a project off the face of the planet without reason.

Chapter 3

New Faces

Yugo sat in front of the closed cell door staring at the thick steel plating almost as though he could see through it to the EVO that was contained inside.

"I just don't know what to do Ruel, Ad is gone, the kids keep asking where he is and when we are getting him back, and I just don't think I have it in me to fight him again." Yugo sighed as he stood up and rested his head against the cool metal. "Sometimes I just wish you'd be able to help me, but you probably can't understand me, due to how you are now."

Yugo looked up as the door on the far end of the containment opened, he was expecting some kind of providence soldier to enter so he was shocked when he saw the female scientist who had helped him recover. She smiled as she past then continued toward the larger door that was at the very back, which contained what sounded like an angry and ferocious EVO.

Yugo kept his distance, guessing that the EVO within was most likely someone close to her and not wanting to intrude on their time. After a few minutes Doc turned away from the cell and stopped in front of Yugo with a smile.

"You know even though the soldiers don't make for good company, the food is quite decent." Yugo looked up and returned her smile with a small one of his own, after nodding he followed Holliday out of the seperated cells into the petting zoo. Walking through the petting zoo Yugo couldn't help but fell upset that there was this amount of freedom outside and yet those few EVO'S were to dangerous to be able to enjoy it.

"I know that you think that it's unfair," Yugo stared up at the scientist who seemed to have read his mind as she continued. "however we do that in order to protect them from eachother, as well as from eachother." Yugo nodded as they stepped into a plain white room that worked as the cafeteria, at one of the tables Yugo could see Rex and the two younger boys sitting and eating, or in Chibi's case playing with his food.

Yugo made his way over and sat down next to Chibi and across from Grougal. As we ate in silence two younger providence soldiers joined us, the first a loud male with unkempt fiery red hair, the second a female with blonde hair that framed her face.

"Rex! Eva and I just completed that Providence Boot camp, but man it just wasn't as fun with out you or that Noah kid messing up all the time!" The male said as he sat at Rex's side. The female sat next to him while Chibi and Grougal stared at the new comers with childish curiousity. The female turned to Yugo with a smile.

"Sorry to intrude, I hope you don't mind." The female said as Yugo shook his head.

"Nah, it's fine."

Already the fiery haired male was practically inhaling the food on his tray to female was more curteous, if only by a little bit. Chibi stood in his seat and leaned over the table getting into the bond's face. "Lady you forgot to introduce yourself." Chibi said as he smiled showing off his gapped tooth grin. Before the blond could comment however, Chibi stood to his full height on his chair, towering above everyone at the table.

"I'm Chibi, my twin brother is Grougal," Chibi then sat down and wrapped his arms around Yugo's midsection. "And this here is my older brother Yugo, though his brother is kinda gone right now."

The blond smiled and nodded as Chibi introduced each of them. "Well I'm Evangelyn, though Eva is fine, and my red headed oaf of a companion is Percedal."

Eva introduced both her and Percedal and then once again the group started eating. As the meal continued Percedal continued bringing up Rex and Noah's time at Providence Basic Training, while Eva for the most part remained silent, taking in information as it was spoken throughout the many groups.

Eva couldn't help but notice though, that Yugo's expression had remained blank and he had barely touched his meal the entire time he sat at the table. Suddenly Yugo stood and walked away, dumping his tray and putting it away on his way out of the room.

"Bhats bwong biph him?" Percedal asked through a mouth full of food as the group watched the retreating back of the dirty blond teen as the door closed behind him. Chibi got up from his seat, leaving his tray on the table, and raced to catch up with his brother, Grougal quickly following behind him.

As the two twins left those that remained at the table continued eating in silence.

...

"Yugo wait!" Yugo stopped as he watched the two twins run to catch up to him, though he hadn't gone that far from the cafeteria, the two children were bent over and panting for breath. Yugo smiled at the two boys as they were both finally able to catch their breaths.

"Hey, what's wrong? I wasn't going anywhere." Yugo said as he knelt down to their eye level. Chibi looked at him with his deep brown eyes and smiled. "We- we know but we wanted to go with you."

Yugo could tell the silver haired youth was lying but he didn't have it in him to call the young boy out, expecially when he concidered how often he had left the two children on their own during the last few weeks. "Well, let's do what you want to then." Yugo said with a slight smile, a smile which grew to match the two boy's as they smiled at what he said.

Chibi gabbed ahold of Yugo's left hand with his significantly smaller ones while Grougal grabbed his other hand, then they both began pulling the older teen behind them as they made their way through the halls.

"Where are you two taking me?" Yugo asked as he continued to follow the twins lead. While still pulling at his arm Chibi turned to look up at his teen who was more of an older brother too him. "We want you to meet someone." Chibi said and he and Grougal took Rex down a familiar hallway.

After a few more minutes of walking Yugo found himself once again in the petting zoo, when there he thought about telling the two about Ruel, but decided the it was still to early for them to see him.

"So who would you possibly want me to meet?" Yugo questioned as he trailed behind the twins through the underbrush. Without saying anything the two continued forward along a well traveled path, while looking up into the trees, eyes intense as they searched the leaves.

In the distance a loud bird like squawk sounded and then a flash of burnt yellow invaded Yugo's view as he was tackled to the ground by something large and feathered.

"Az he's good." Chibi said as Grougal pulled the feathered EVO off of Yugo's body, once freed from the weight of the creature Yugo sat up and got a clear view of the beast.

It had a fiercely sharp and pointed beak, which was only rivaled by the blade like talons that tipped off each of its 'toes'. Though Yugo had a hard time estimating the height of the thing it almost seemed to be half the height of either Chibi or Grougal. It stared at Yugo with fierce coal black eyes which were framed by the same burnt golden feathers that covered the rest of its body.

Suddenly the bird began struggling in the young boys grasp. " Az no, Yugo is Grougal and Chibi's friend." Grougal said in an attempt to calm the EVO down. In the end however the bird's struggling got to be to much for the young boy causing him to let go of the large bird, which once again flew to attack Yugo.

On instinct Yugo mentally prepared for the feeling of sharp claws cutting through flesh, but was suprised to feel only the light caress of feathers against his face and shoulder, along with the gentle grip of t alone feet along his shoulder blade. When he looked the bird seemed quite content in where it was resting upon Yugo's shoulder.

"Looks like you made a new friend Yugo." Chibi said as he stroked the bird as best he could from his spot on the ground.

A.N. So thus Eva and Percedal, as well as Az are all introduced to the story, though to be honest I never actually planned on bringing Az into the story. Also Az is just a plain EVO bird, not once was he himan, and Yugo had yet to tell Chibi and Grougal about Ruel. So yeah short chapter with not much action sorry for that.

Until next time Peace, Love, and Virtual Hugs
