" alright...i don't know how to thank you.. im sorry if i seemed rude at first.." She shhok her head and yawned, then rested her head and dozed off.
"We need to figure out what to do," pronounced X-02, sighing as X-12 closed her eyes to rest. "We can't stay here for long. They'll be looking for us, and now that they know we're here, they'll come soon." He walked to the edge of the building, looking down the busy street below.
X-3 jumped down from the building. She saw a barage of black suited men come towards the building they were on. She looked at them, her eyes wide. She jumped back on the building and grabbed X-12.
"We need to move fast." she said putting X-12 on her back. She jumped onto the next building. It was harder carying someone than she thought.

"Right," replied X-02, leaping from his current position to another roof. The wind slapped against his face, and he could hear the shouts of the men behind. "Do you want me to take her?" yelled 02 to 3, who seemed to be struggling in an attempt to carry 12.
He darted across the length of the roof and bounded up into the air, coming to rest onto another roof. "I'll take her if you want," he said, knowing there would be precious moments before the men followed. They needed to move... quickly.
None of the other X's had noticed that 14 had left them. He was walking through an abandoned apartment building, heading to the top floor. Rats and trash and even a few bums still resided in the building, but they were quiet, and meant no harm. He strided ahead of himself until he found the door. He opened it and stepped inside. There were several people inside. But people...like him.
They were all scattered, leaning against walls, lying on the floor, or sitting on tearing sofa's and futons. "We must have found more." 14 said to himself lightly, under his breath. the others were quiet, some slightly nervous, but more or less at home. 14 approached 2 of them. A taller tanned skinned one with scraggly brown hair, a pale looking one.
The taller one spoke first. "Late night encounters 14?" He asked raising an eyebrow. "You saw more of us didn't you?" He almost stated more than asking. 14 nodded. He'd give 15 credit. He was one smart guy. And rather resolute.
The pale one spoke next, "Well, how many of us?"
"Does it matter?" 14 responded.
"Yes it does," the tall one spoke again. "Alot of us are getting very uneasy." He said looking around. Then he pointed over to one of the other x's, crouched in a corner, shaking.
"4's been acting more crazy than usual." He said, his head lowering.
It was the pale one's time to act "That is because he IS crazy. We'll have to watch him more." Then his voice lowered, and he gestured to everyone else in the room, "We'll have to watch EVERYONE more."
The tall one, 15, spoke again "We should go soon, find the one's that you saw tonight." He said pointing to 14.
14 didn't speak at first, his eyes were far off, "Yes, I'll take you soon. Both of you." he said sighing, and sitting on a trash can that was nearby.
