A few days have passed since the car accident that the body experienced.
3803 was with 2153 making their deliveries of oxygen to somewhere around the chest area.
"It seems like the body's beginning to heal nicely!" 2153 remarked.
The two haven't run into the others since the time they split up those few days.
"The two nanobots must be really busy. The same could go for IB and PC." 3803 added.
"Can you two tell us what we're going to discuss at that time?" 3803 asked.
"It's a surprise!" 0012 answered with a giggle.
"Do you think we should start heading towards the stomach?" she asked her partner.
"That wouldn't be such a bad idea," he replied.
They first went to deliver the oxygen they have on hand.
After picking up their carbon dioxide, they began to walk over.
While they were walking over, they saw Killer T Cell and NK Cell arguing over something.
Not wanting to get involved with the inevitable galaxy-sized fight, they simply ignored them and continued walking.
Just like that, not long after the two passed them they could begin to hear punches beginning to get thrown.
To that, the two simply let out a sigh and kept going.
As they were walking they encountered 1196 with her own small group of neutrophils dealing with a few antigens.
A red light came from their pupils for a few seconds before fading away again.
"I see she's just as great as ever." 2153 told himself before they continued walking away to where they were supposed to be.
After a bit of time, they managed to find their way into an empty vessel.
"Man, it would be wise to get out of here as soon as possible. I have a bad feeling something's gonna-"
3803 was interrupted by an antigen that made itself known.
"Hm, easy targets I see! I'm coming after you two!" it yelled as it made a mad dash for them.
Almost no time has passed when it happened.
Just as the antigen was about to reach them, the dot of red light could be seen once again as their expressions grew a bit colder than usual.
2153 grabbed the antigen in the face, while 3803 grabbed its chest with her arm and the two cells pinned it down.
Wasting no time, they simply each put pressure on a certain point of the antigen's body with their free hands.
It didn't take too long before they killed it from the inside.
Just like that, the red light faded away once more.
The two blinked once before getting up.
"What... just happened?" 3803 asked.
"I'm not exactly sure."
They simply stared at the corpse for a bit.
During this time, they began to feel a little drained.
"Maybe it would be wise to go and ask the two nanobots this once we go and see them." 3803 suggested before the two continued to walk again.
In the stomach, 0011 and 0012 were both waiting for a pill that contained some things they needed.
"Have you heard anything else from Shane?" 0012 asked.
"I wish. All I've heard from her is that she's beginning to make something, a new experiment she wants to test out in an artificial environment or something around those lines." 0011 responded.
"Did you hear anything about the body I was originally in?"
"I don't know too much about that either, but it seems like on that body's end, they fulfilled what was needed, so I guess you're going to stay with me now!"
Some time passed.
While they were waiting on the pill, they were able to spot 3803 and 2153 in the distance.
"Ah, so you were able to make it. Wonderful!" 0012 exclaimed.
"Yeah, we actually got a question for you guys. Is our talk gonna involve us taking out antigens?" 2153 bluntly asked.
The two nanobots froze for a moment.
They both simply let out a small smile.
"I see you're both adjusting to the program nicely. Don't worry, we're going to fill you two in on that. Come with us." 0011 told them.
"Program? What program?" the two thought.
The two were then led away into an empty corner.
"So, when we were trying to save you, there wasn't a whole lot that we had on us in terms of how to repair sickle cells. We were also thinking about what our creators told us to do, as well as how to make you both feel more useful for this body. Wasn't there ever a time where you really wanted to help the white blood cells?" 0011 asked.
The two red blood cells were able to recall all the various times where they could see their friends struggling, and that the most they could do were deliver oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nutrients.
"To put it more bluntly, you're both semi-immune cells now! Not only could you do your original jobs a bit better, you also have some way to defend yourselves for when you're alone or in extreme danger and the like. We even made it so you could be more resourceful in what you can use!" 0012 said.
It took them a bit to process all the information that was just given to them.
"We're... partially immune cells now?" 3803 asked to confirmed.
The two nanobots nodded.
Before they were able to go more into detail, they got a signal that the pill they were waiting for has arrived.
"Looks like our pill has arrived, why don't you two test out your abilities." 0011 told them before the two nanobots ran off.
The two red blood cells simply clutched their packages of carbon dioxide and went to the lungs, which also allowed them a bit more time to process this new information.
A bit before the nanobots got to the pill, something quietly jumped out of it and went through the door and simply disappeared.
