Okay guys, so before I start this chapter off, I'd like to apologize for my last authors note.

I feel really bad about it, and guilty, and I really don't know why I posted it. I don't have an excuse to give you guys, but I really hope we can forget about it 'cause I just feel really bad and guilty and don't wanna have to dwell on it or reminisce on it. I'm not usually the one to show emotions through my authors notes, and I just feel disappointed in myself that I wrote that thing up and brought it on to you guys, 'cause now I really regret it. I should be happy with what I have, right?

So yeah, I'm sorry, and I promise I won't type anything up like that again. I don't know why I did, it's not my style, and it's not me.

So I just gonna leave this right here in hopes that you forget about it while you read this super-short chapter. Enjoy!


"Mark?! Ryan?!" Grace called out as she entered her home, pulling her suitcases along behind her. She'd been worried about her two boys for the past five days, but knew that they'd been able to handle themselves, even if she did leave Seth with them.

"Over here, Mom!" Mark yelled as he continued playing video games from his spot on the couch.

"I see you're still playing video games," Grace observed as she placed her bags down and wandered over to the two boys. Upon seeing Mark play as Batman in Gotham City, she smiled and shook her head. "Same as when I—" She had then looked down, however, and noticed her youngest son lying, what seemed to be unconscious, on the couch and the state he was in. "Ryan!" She screamed, worriedly, as she raced toward him. "What happened?!" She asked Mark, bewildered.

"Skate park accident," came the perfectly-rehearsed on cue reply.

"Again?!" The black haired woman questioned, confused.

"Yeah," Mark replied with a sigh, "Seth let us go. He thought it was a good idea that Ryan get some fresh air, so he asked me to take him somewhere, but when he tried to go down the half pipe... well, this happened." He had then paused before adding, "Isn't Seth so irresponsible?"

"Very," Grace agreed as she felt Ryan's forehead and frowned as she found he still had a fever. He wasn't as hot as he was before she left, but he was still warm and that worried her deeply. She sighed as she glanced at Ryan before turning her attention to Mark. "What'd the doctors say?" She inquired.

"Grade two concussion, three broken ribs, and his left knee is badly bruised," Mark explained, "He stayed unconscious pretty much the entire time, but the doctors said he should wake up soon."

"And what about the gash on his forehead?"

"Oh, that too!" Mark added as he finally paid attention to his mother, "Sick, right?!"

"Very sick," Grace said as she glared at her oldest son, "And trust me when I say I do not mean that in the way you do." She had then pulled out her cell phone and began to step out of the room. "I'll be back in a minute," She spoke, annoyed at not her sons, but her boyfriend instead. "I'm going to talk to Seth about this."

"You do that!" Mark shouted as he resumed back to his game, "And let him know what a terrible, irresponsible person he really is!"

A comfortable silence had then made its way into the room and as Grace turned a corner and went upstairs, Mark burst out laughing.

"Dude, that was awesome!" He exclaimed as he high fived the technopath next to him.

"Yeah, it was!" Ryan agreed as he joined in on the laughing, "We should get Seth in trouble more often!"

"Yep!" Mark concurred, "We make a great team."

Ryan smirked. "We do," He said, "Don't we?"


And, done! Now it's actually, finally done! No more tricks, it's finished! :)

I really hope you guys liked the ending part. I had a lot of fun writing it and I think Ryan and Mark were actually somewhat in character in this XD. Unlike all my other Mech-X4 stories, anyway.

So, now that this is done, I have a question for you guys about my new story...

Should the main Mech-X4 crew start calling Seth 'Harper', by his last name, instead of his first? I feel like it's a bit more realistic since they're enemies and all now.

Sorry if you were expecting something more serious. XD.

Anyway though, I hope you guys liked this chapter and I'd like to give a few shout outs to some people who reviewed. Mainly Imagigirl20, Brentinator, and Guest. You guys are awesome and I'd like to think your support was what kept me going when I was doubtful and worrisome or just sad and insecure. So thanks for that! :)

I'm thinking of creating a Facts chapter authors note, or just a long ending authors note, but in case nothing comes to mind, I think I'll just end this here.

Thanks for all the support guys! I wish you the best luck on your writing too! :)
