It was a normal day at the base; Holiday was working non-stop in her lab, trying to find a way to break down into Providence's security but with no results for the moment.

"Hey, doc!" said Rex as he entered in her lab, Six coming behind him.

Holiday didn't bother on say hi, she was with a pair of headphones in her ears, a hundred percent focused on her work.

"...doc?" said Rex as he went next to her, still followed by Six. Just on that moment Holiday noted their presence and took her headphones off.

"Yes?" she said, not taking her eyes off the screen.

"You missed lunch, are you sure you're not hungry?" asked Rex, concerned as Holiday was barely blinking at the screen.

"I'm fine Rex, I'm just not hungry" she replied.

"She's lying" said Six. Now Rex was staring at him.

"How do you know that?" asked the teenager as he raised an eyebrow. Surely he might remembered something about the past but to know her that well in six months was too much, or so Rex thought.

"We searched you for six months. She was worse than she is now" replied Six, stoic as usual.

Holiday sighed and decided to be the one explaining, before he could look the situation worse than it was.

"If I eat I will feel sleepy in an hour or so and my next cup of coffee must be in two hours if I want to keep going" she turned around with the chair, now facing the two of them.

"So, if you've got nothing else to say, I would like you to leave me alone. Please" she said as she stood up and, with a hand on each back, pushed them outside her lab. Sighing of relief once she closed door with the two intruders outside, she went back to her work.

Rex and Six were talking outside her door.

"At least she stood up this time" said Six, not paying much attention to the matter. Rex, on the other hand, was really worried about the doc.

"How you can be so calm? She hasn't eaten since morning! How long has she been in there?" asked Rex the last more to himself than to Six, but he answered anyways.

"Judging by her not so tired expression and her energy to drive us out, twelve hours at the least" said Six, hands in his pockets and already walking down the hall in another direction. Although he was worried about her, he did his best to not show it like the last time he did. Rex wasn't there back then, and all his attempts failed... all except one. But why do that all over again?

"We must do something!" said an energic Rex as he ran next to his partner to ask for his help. But Six didn't bother on look at Rex.

"Like what?"

"I don't know! Something!" said Rex as he stepped in front of Six, blocking his way.

"Six," Rex started, Six had to low his gaze to meet the kid's eyes. "She's capable of EVERYTHING in order to reach her goal. She attached neural shockers to her forehead to shock herself awake once when an EVO made fall asleep everyone! You included!" yelled Rex as he pointed at the agent with his index finger. Six frowned.

"Fine, I will help you" he said at last. He was aware of her determination and stubbornness of Holiday but that would be too much, and he wouldn't let her to do that. Not now that he could avoid it.

Rex's shoulders loosened and he let go a sigh of relief after Six's words.

"Okay, we must think on something good" said Rex with his usual grin on his face.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Sleeping Powder

Holiday let go a smile too but she didn't raise her head or turn around to look at Rex.

"Thank you, Rex, but I do have something to eat to keep my strength" she said. Rex's smile dropped and for a moment confusion took control of his mind. But he calmed down quickly as he saw Six coming inside.

"You should eat something more substantial than chocolates" said Six. Holiday's smile grew bigger and this time she stood up once more to talk to them.

"I know you put some sleep powder in it, Six. I'm not gonna eat it" she said, smirking.

Six's usual frown dropped and Rex's mouth was wide open now. How the heck did she knew without looking at the content?

"How did you...?" was all Rex managed to say as Holiday cut him off.

"Not the first time he had tried with that." she said, smirking at Six, who couldn't avoid gulp at the memory. He had brought her coffee and she, without doubting not even for a second, drank it all in one shot.

"Thought I would fall for the same trick twice? No, sir. Now, out of my lab" she said the last as she pointed at the door entrance. Six and Rex left the place, but she knew they would return. In fact, she was hoping them to come back, it had just started to get.....funny.

2. Distraction

"Hey, doc" said Rex as he came inside the lab for the third time in the day, Six coming behind him too. She smiled and turned around to look at them and see what they had brought this time to entertain her.

"Yes?" she said, trying to not curve her lips as laugh wanted to come out already. She had to pretend to be mad, but true thing was that she was enjoying it so much...

"I was wondering something you told me once... long time ago." said Rex, smirking as he sat in one on the desk, trying to not press any buttons of the keyboard. Six was at the opposite side, arms crossed; he wanted to see where the conversation would lead to.

"Yes?" repeated Holiday. She had calmed down somehow, but she was still anxious for knowing with what kind of trick they would come up with now. What amused her most was Six being part of Rex's mischievous plan.

"You know, you said once that you never were asked out for the Prom..." Rex was grinning mischievously, hoping to touch a nerve with that. But his triumphal smile turned into surprise as she smiled and went back to her work. He would never understand women for sure...

"Is that so? Why ask me for that all of a sudden?" she said as she was again focused on the screen.

"Curiosity?" said Rex as he couldn't still believe her reaction. Six, on the other hand, was indeed curious about Rex's question.

"Maybe because I wasn't as pretty as I am now, I guess" she answered. Six's mind quickly elaborated a reply for that, but he didn't expect to his lips to open and say it out loud.

"And you consider yourself pretty?"

The letters on the screen stopped to show up as the sound of every key Holiday pressed ceased. Six regretted deeply in his heart to have said such a thing to her, the only woman whose green eyes had made him daydream.

Holiday slowly turned around to reply. Rex went to hide quickly behind Six, who stood up immediately to go away in case she wanted to kick him, which would be fair after he had insulted her in that way.

"Are you implying I am not?" she said, smirking. Rex blinked, not sure if he was looking right at Holiday. Six, on the other hand, had no longer idea of what was going on.

"If I remember correctly, Agent Six," she said, trying to sound soft, but letting know by the look on her eyes that she was offended for the comment. Six's skin stiffened when she said 'Agent Six' that was never a good signal. "It was you who called Dr. Beautiful when you lost your memory, right?"

"... I did" he said, trying to composure himself.

"Nice!" she said, smiling like an angel. Rex and Six were still unsure of what was wrong with her. "If you're done insulting me, I will ask you to leave, please. Or else I will shoot at both of you" she said the last not as happy and normal sounding as before. Rex and Six started to walks towards the door, this time more quickly than the last.

"At least you would stop working" said Rex as he was almost leaving. Holiday smiled as Rex closed the door and seconds later she was working once again.

Outside of her lab, Six and Rex were talking.

"Why the heck you had to say that!" yelled Rex to Six, who didn't want to answer the question.

"Forget it, Rex, if she wants to exhaust herself, she's free to do it. She's the doctor, after all" said Six as he started to walk towards his room, Rex stopped him again.

"No! Holiday is part of our team! She takes care of us when we need it! Now we are gonna do the same for her!" Six looked into the kid's eyes, they were filled with determination. It would be useless to refuse to Rex, he would keep insisting on the matter and to be honest, he wasn't as patient as Holiday.

"Fine. Any other idea?" asked Six to Rex. The kid grinned once more as he had already planned his next move.

"Hey, doc" said Rex as he came inside the lab for the third time in the day, Six coming behind him too. She smiled and turned around to look at them and see what they had brought this time to entertain her.

"Yes?" she said, trying to not curve her lips as laugh wanted to come out already. She had to pretend to be mad, but true thing was that she was enjoying it so much...

"I was wondering something you told me once... long time ago." said Rex, smirking as he sat in one on the desk, trying to not press any buttons of the keyboard. Six was at the opposite side, arms crossed; he wanted to see where the conversation would lead to.

3. Set a trap

"Rex, I don't think this is going to work" said Six to a Rex that was standing four meters of distance.

It was a simple trap. They would pretend to be fighting, and when Holiday opened the door a numbing dart would shot from the inside of the room, Rex was confident of his plan, but Six had his doubts. He was worried that the dart could hurt Holiday more than lull her.

"Of course it's gonna work!" said Rex as he built the Slam Cannon. Six unfolded his katanas, ready to act.

Holiday was working once more when a loud thud echoed in the base. She sighed and took of her headphones, she had no doubt this was Rex's idea. Calmly, she stood up and, before leaving, she took the last sip of her cup of coffee. Whatever they were doing it was calling her, and since she was of a curious nature, she couldn't resist going and knowing what they were doing this time. Once she left the lab she made sure of lock the door by the outside, just in case they were plotting something else.

When she reached the door she hesitated if she should open it or not.

She could hear fighting noises at the other side of the room. The logical thing to think would be that they were training, but she was sure that Rex wouldn't give up so easily, in fact, she actually was hoping that he wouldn't give up so easily.

She was still wondering if she should open it or just leave when Bobo showed up.

"Are you goin' to open the door or I shall do for you?" said Bobo, being sarcastic of course.

Bobo opened the door without caring about the reply. The next thing he saw was a dart flying towards him but higher. Holiday, luckily, wasn't behind Bobo but next to him. The dart embedded in the wall.

"A numbing dart! Seriously!" yelled Holiday from the door entrance, half surprised, half angered.

"You could kill me with that!" she yelled again as she had gone to take the numbing dart from the wall. Definitely, judging by how embedded the dart was, it could have caused a serious damage on Holiday.

"It was Rex's idea" was all Six could manage to say. Holiday didn't care though; she threw the dart to the floor and trampled it before going back to her lab.

Both Rex and Six were now staring at the chimp, who did not understand what was going on. Bobo slammed the door closed and quickly started to run. Seconds later the door opened again to let pass a furious teenager who chased down Bobo for half hour. A half hour that Holiday had the chance to enjoy in complete peace.

"Rex, I don't think this is going to work" said Six to a Rex that was standing four meters of distance.

It was a simple trap. They would pretend to be fighting, and when Holiday opened the door a numbing dart would shot from the inside of the room, Rex was confident of his plan, but Six had his doubts. He was worried that the dart could hurt Holiday more than lull her.

4. Cut the coffee supplies

"This should work!" said Rex as he disconnected the coffee machine.

"She can connect it again, Rex" said Six. Part of him was tired of this nonsense, but the other was smiling at the kid's crazy ideas.

"No if I do this!" Rex built his Smack Hands and, without waiting for a second order, smashed the coffee machine. Just on that moment Holiday arrived with her cup in order to fill it with more coffee.

"What are you two doing now?" she said, smiling.

Rex jumped at the sound of her voice and his instincts told him to hide the coffee machine if he wanted to survive, but Six moved him to let her see the now ruined coffee machine. Six was frowning, trying to remain as calm and stoic as always. Rex was frowning, but his eyes revealed his nervousness.

Holiday just smiled to them and walked towards the soda machine on the corner. Rex and Six stared at her as she inserted a coin and pressed the 'Coke' button. Holiday was smiling all the time. She took her Coke and opened it, filled the room with a 'psss' sound.

"Coke is also good to keep people awake, you know?" she said with a huge grin on her face. Six and Rex were, again, staring at her.

"And by they way, I'm not the only one who drinks coffee!" she said as she turned around and started to walk towards her lab once more. Rex and Six remained in silence for a few seconds after she disappeared.

"Damn it!" yelled Rex waving a fist in the air.

"Any other idea?" said Six, raising an eyebrow.

Rex remained in silence, a hand on his chin as he was thinking on another mischievous plan to make Holiday stop working. Suddenly his face lit up with happiness as a new and crazy idea crossed his mind.

"Yeah! I've got one! Follow me!" he yelled the last as he was already running through the base corridors. Six waited for the kid to disappear from his sight before follow him. Since when he used to do things like that?

5. Cut the electricity

"Do you understand that if we do this and she loses all her work she will kill us?" said Six as he was behind Rex, who was trying to open the electricity panel in order to create a short.

"We can deal with that later! Now..." said Rex as he was about to cut one of the wires. He ended up ripping them all.

The effect was immediately, all the lights went off. Rex grinned and quickly ran towards Holiday's lab, hoping to see her admit her defeat and go to sleep. Six followed Rex not with the same energy as him. His mind was busy thinking on all the craziness that he had managed to support so far. He had no idea how they had ended up trying to sabotage the entire base just for Holiday, nonetheless, he admitted to himself that it was fun.

When they reached the door of the lab they stopped and, for a moment, doubted if they should open the door or not. If they had succeed (which they didn't doubt) they would be in huge troubles with Holiday and a mad scientist was something to be afraid of, especially if that scientist was Holiday.

Six decided to be the one in going first, if there was one that could survive to her anger that was him.

Their surprise couldn't be contained when they entered into the lab; it was still operative. Holiday was focused in her work, typing here and there. She was using her headphones again so she couldn't listen any of their crazy plans to stop her from working. Six and Rex entered into the lab, more surprised than angered.

"How the heck you did it, doc!" asked Rex as he looked everywhere trying to find the power source that was keeping the entire lab functioning. Holiday, at the sound of Rex's voice, took off the headphones and turned around to face them both, she was sitting idly in her chair, with her legs crossed. Six had to admit that although she looked mad, she also looked hot.

"Didn't I tell you that I would shoot you the next time you entered into here?" she said, now really angry. She had thought that they would finally leave her alone.

"How you did it?" said Six, who was standing in front of Holiday, just a few meters away. Rex, on the other hand, was checking behind every single monitor to know what kind of trick she had used this time.

"Do what?" asked Holiday, raising an eyebrow but keeping her angry expression.

"We cut the electricity in the whole building! This should be off!" yelled Rex, pointing at one of the 'error' screens. Holiday smirked.

"It's called alternative power source, Rex. And it's connected to a safe place that you two will never find" she said, standing up, ready to lead them out of her lab once more.

"Doc, you must stop this! You know you can't win this war!" said Rex as he refused to leave the lab, yet.

"Then how you do you explain that I'm still working?" she replied with a smirk. Rex opened his mouth to protests but he quickly closed it as no words came to his mind.

"There's no need to work so hard, Holiday" said Six.

"Fight EVOs is what you do, and work in this lab is what I do. If I help with your job the least you could do would be not interfere with mine." said Holiday, now being totally serious.

"Stubborn" said Six in a low voice. Rex's skin tensed, this was no good.

"If you have nothing better to say, you can go." say Holiday, smiling.

Rex and Six didn't say a word and this time Holiday accompanied them to the door, just to make sure they would leave her alone. Just before she closed the door, as they were already walking down the corridors of the base (they knew she was looking at them), Six heard her last words.

"And, in case you don't remember, I'm the most stubborn woman you had ever met!" she yelled before closing the door.

"You really told her that?" asked Rex to Six right after she had closed the door.

"I have no idea" was all he replied.

"So, what do we do now?" asked Rex, looking at Six.

"Don't worry, I've got a plan" was all he said, Rex stopped for a second as his mind processed what he had said. He had a plan? ... What kind of plan?
