-----

   Ren had heard about a new device used to modify a Bakugan players speed, intelligence, and over all control of there Bakugan.

Wanting to know more about the device, and find any foul play in past and even future battles he ordered it, wanting to run a few tests on it.

"What's in the box there Ren?" Sid asked, as Ren walked past him carrying a medium sized white box.       

Ren heard the question, but didn't bother to answer and went straight to his lab, he was grateful there was a spear room in the Interspace he could use as his lab. However Sid wasn't one to be ignored; "Hey! I said what's in the box!?"

Ren turned to look at Sid who had followed him into his lab, "I'll tell you if you learn to keep your voice down."  

Huffing, Sid crossed his arms, "Fine." he mumbled.

"It's called a BakuEnhancer-it's suppose to enhance a players abilities."     

"No kidding? Sounds interesting," Sid began, "Don't tell me your planning to use it on yourself are you?" he smirked, giving a look that clearly spoke, 'cheating are we?'

"Of coarse not, but it doesn't mean others wont, and I want to test it to see how it works." Ren quickly explained.

Sid gave a half confused, half intrigued look. "Test, huh? Well how to you plan to do that?"

Ren was busy opening the box and setting the device up, so didn't answer right away.

Sid was about to complain about Ren ignoring him again when he answered, "I was kinda hoping someone would be willing to help me test it."

Sid looked at the odd device Ren had fully set up on the table. It was a good size, not to big, yet to very small, something you could carry for a short while before wanting to place it down. It's shape was that of what Sid would describe as a goose. It was white with a black rim, and had a round body with what looked like a short, long neck and an oval shaped like head, and stood on three thin, sturdy legs.

"What, now smart guy over here needs some help?" he mocked.

Ren turned to face the other looking a bit insulted, but pushed it aside quickly. "It not like I can test it on myself you know."

Sid was still looking at the goose shaped device, when Ren added, "I wonder how I'll even be able to test it..."

At that, Sid raised his head up to look at the other, "Forget wondering, you got that someone right here." he said giving off what could only be called cockiness.

Ren looked at Sid a bit worried, "But Sid, we don't even know how this thing works yet...what if something goes wrong?"

"Don't care, if its built to make a Bakugan Battler better in his game, then I want that power." Sid remarked.

Ren wasn't too sure about this, but he did need a willing test subject and if Sid was that willing person he wasn't about to turn him down.

"Okay, but don't say I didn't warn you." and with that he took the device in his hands.

Looking the thing over he waved his hand telling Sid to step so far right in front of him, which Sid did in a few quick steps and stood waiting.

At last Ren felt he knew how the thing turned on, and aimed it at Sid who was a foot an a half away.

"Let's try speed first." he said calmly, and set the deli.

In a mater of moments a yellow light shot out blasting Sid, but showed no sign of it hurting him.

Once the light faded Sid opened his eyes, that by reflex, he had closed, and looked at himself for any changes.

"I don't feel different." he stated.

"That's because you have to move around first." Ren remarked with an annoyed look.      

Sid shot him a glare and took a few steps forward.  

As Sid walked around Ren began to explain what Sid should be aware of. "The type speed this device is conformed for, is to allow a player to keep up with their Bakugan in battle, forming speeds from anywhere to 10 through 100 MPH."   

"I guess that could come in handy...assuming you have a speedy Bakugan."

"If it's meant for a players speed, I have no doubt it will also increase the players Bakugan's speed too...try running."

  Sid gave it ago, and picked up his pace. Within moments he was running circles around Ren.

As Ren recorded the results, he didn't hear Sid yell, and before he knew it, as he turned around, he was met with a large, heavy body that could only belong to Sid.

"Ow…" Ren was laying flat on on his back on the ground with Sid right on top of him looking down at him, their faces only a few inches away.

"I tried to warn ya." Sid remarked.   

"Thanks for the warning, now if you could get off that would be great." Ren said and without knowing it was blushing.

Sid just gave a grin, but didn't move, much to Ren's displeasure.

"What's up with you? I asked you to get off." Ren repeated, but not attempting to move regardless.

Sid just gave a small chuckle, "You look funny when you're trying to stay composed with such a red face."

At that, Ren grew wide-eyed, but quickly pushed Sid off of him. "You're here to help me test this, not patronize me."

"It's not my fault you got all blushy when you were underneath me." He remarked as he watched Ren stand up, Sid still near the ground, sitting on his knees.  

Ren ignored his remark and set up the device again.

"This time, let's try intelligence."
      
Sid gave Ren a slight glare, as if daring him to make a smart ass remark, but to his surprise Ren didn't.   

Instead Ren just waiting until Sid was ready and blasted him with the beam again.
Unlike with the speed, Sid did fell different, and it hurt, it was as if his brain had grew in size or something and it was giving him a major headache.   

Ren seemed to notice this and quickly asked. "You alright Sid?"

"Yeah, I just think my cranium got increasingly sore." Sid answered. Ren looked on in utter shock; never had Sid ever used such….big words.  It was almost…impressing.

"Now what?" Sid snapped, looking back at Ren who seemed to be staring off into space.

Ren shook his head,and quickly began writing his found notes.

"So how long is this all supposed to last anyways?" Sid questioned with his arms crossed.

Ren finished his notes and answered, "Since this is just a beta device, I'd estimate about an hour."   

"Now there is just one left." Ren grabbed up the device and Sid stood more then ready for the next and final test.

"This one is for control right?" Sid questioned, Ren gave a quick nod.

"You have your Bakugan on you?"

"No, I left it in the other room." he replied.

"Good, I want to test just how much control this thing can give you, even with your Bakugan nowhere near you."

Sid shrugged and waited for Ren to start up the device.

After words, he in fact 'did' feel something different, he felt...powerful.

There was almost no other way to decsibe it. Sid looked up at Ren as he seemed to be waiting for something impressive to happen; and soon something did happen....Sid's Bakugan suddenly fly to the room.

"Hey! This is odd, I felt you calling for me from the other room-what kind of magic sorcery is this?" it complained.

"You've got to be kidding me! It worked!?" Sid stated happy yet confused mixed with shock. He began looking at his hands as if they would shoot fire next.

Ren jobbed everything down in his notes and gave a satisfied smile. "Well that seems to be all for today." he glanced over at Sid, "Thanks for the help." and began putting things away.

Sid nodded and him and his Bakugan left.

"You still didn't answer me," it began, "and what were you doing in Ren's lab anyways?"

"I'll let you later." came Sid's reply.

Day after day Sid began helping Ren with tests and just being his subject for anything the kid dished out. There was nothing he won't let be tested on him, and he felt himself growing in power, then lose that since of power. Speed he loved by this point, the running did him good, and he loved the feeling of wind in his face, as if in a car. The list went on, and nothing to harm him to much.

Ren wanted to test the BakuEnhancer again, after changing a few things to it and Sid was more then willing.


As day turned to night, Ren was working late running some bio-tests on the device and after words started heading to bed.

Due to where his makeshift lad was, he had to walk pass Sid's room to get to his own.

The halls were dark and not a soul was awake. Ren quietly walked down the hall and as he slowly walked by Sid's room he heard a soft yet odd sound coming from within.

Ren hesitated for a moment to put his hear to the door, he just wanted to make sure nothing of importance was happening, last thing they needed was an enemy on board.

But once his ear made contact with the door the sound her heard he knew for a fact was not a cry of pain or in need of help.

The loud moan sent a chill down his spin as the thought of what Sid was doing crossed his mind, and he quickly went straight to his room wishing he could take back the sound he just heard.

The following morning, Sid went back to Ren's lab for a follow up on the tests.

When Ren saw Sid that sound he heard last night leaked into his head, but he quickly shoved it away.

"How you are feeling?" he asked.

Sid crossed his arms, "Not to different from yesterday."

"Do you feel anything out of the ordinary? Any side effects?"

Sid took a moment to think then remarked with a simple. "Nope."

Ren started jotting down more notes, suddenly Sid asked. "How long did you say the effects of that thing should last again?"

Ren stopped his writing and looked up at Sid almost worried, "An hour, why?"

"I don't think its warn off yet, not that I'm complaining, just felt you might want to know in case you try to shoot me with it again."

Ren became very interested but then suddenly wondered, was that the reason Sid was making those odd sounds?

"Mean your still feeling the effects of the device? How did you sleep? Or did you sleep at all? Are you sure there were no side effects?"

"Slow down there! Whats with the 52 questions?"

Ren sighed, "Sorry...but its still important, we have to know everything about this thing before anyone tries to use it."

"I got it, I know, but I already told you, I feel fine-just the same as I did after you blasted me."

Ren wanted to believe Sid, that everything was as it should be, but that odd sound that he had emitted just a few countless hours ago kept running thou his brain telling him other wise. What was Sid hiding?

"So you slept just fine last night then?..." the question made Sid shoot an odd look of his own.

"I told you yes, why do you keep asking?" he now raised an eyebrow.

Ren exhaled slowly, "I was up late last night...and walking past your room...it sounded like you might have been in pain, that's all."

Sid's face became tented as a slight blush appeared. "Oh..that, well..."

"If it wasn't pain, what was it?"

Sid's tented blush became a bit darker, before he snapped. "You're the brains around here! Figure it out! We are miles away from home, having to fight for all of man kind, and not a single hot chick in sight to be with! What do you think I was doing? I'm a man for peat sake!" with that he gave a huff and plopped down in a chair, but as he did so, an image of Sid shutting Ren up crossed his mind, and Ren suddenly froze.

Noticing, Sid grabbed his attention. "Now what?

"An image of you kissing me just came rushing into my memory....and it felt like it came from you."

Sid crossed his arms "You look better that way then when your yapping your mouth off."

Ren was speechless for a moment and Sid quickly realized that sent off a bad single. "To put your mind at ease, I wasn't thinking of you when I did it. I smuggled some chick magazines in my room." he said that last part in a slight whisper.  

Ren gave a sigh of relief, yet even the thought didn't bug him, and that in it's self-did bug him.

"But don't act like its never crossed your mind..." Sid continued.

"What?"

Sid huffed again, "Its only natural for a man or even woman to think about such a thing with a person they seem to trust, only very few act on it! I'm just saying don't act like the idea as never crossed your mind."

Ren took a moment to fully take in what Sid was saying, it seemed that device really did increase a lot if his brain cells, so much to the point he was understanding things about the human brain-even if it was odd things.

"I wont deny it...but, the image didn't bug me...and that alone, scares me." Ren admitted.

Sid sighed deeply, "It...scares me too...that, the idea doesn't...bother me either."                    

Ren grabbed a seat and sat down next to Sid, "Maybe...we're, just spending to much time together?...and it's causing us to think in such ways."

Sid laughed a bit, "Yeah, that might be, after all, we have know each other for years now."

Ren smiled, "I think I have all the info I need on the device, and I can always have Dan or one of the girls to help me out."

Sid nodded, "Yeah, well I'll see ya' around then." and got up waving a friendly so long.

The rest of the week went by without much event, thou Ren started to notice his tests just weren't the same without Sid; sure Dan did a well enough job, but chickened out on some of them that he knew for a fact Sid would be all for. The girls didn't like the idea of being a 'lab rat' what they called it and refused.

It wasn't until Ren was alone in his lab that, that image re-entered his mind...and yet it still did not bug him. Why was that? He thought, how could such a thing NOT bug him?

Little did Ren know Sid was feeling the same, the whole week he had been training, readying himself for battle, yet, he felt he missed being Ren's 'test subject' he had fun doing it, and even enjoyed the boys company. Training alone just wasn't cutting it for him anymore.

Ren was still lost in thought when he heard his lab door open.

"Hey Ren you in here?" it was Sid's voice.

"Sid? What are you doing here?" he questioned getting up.

Sid walked over to Ren slowly.

"Look, um, I've been thinking..if the thought of it doesn't bug you still, and it doesn't bug me..."

"You want to give it a try? Is that what your here to ask?" Ren interrupted. Sid gave a nod with a smug look, "See, I knew you'd get it." he laughed trying to lighten the mood between them.  

Ren took a breath, "Sure...does that also mean you want to be my test subject again?" he joked.

Sid leaned over and gave Ren a peck on the lips. "Hope that answers ya'."

Ren touched his lips with a slight grin, "It works."

They kissed again, but more then a mere peck and once pulled away Ren answered. "I'm still scared, but its not so bad."

"Some here kid, same here."
