North knew he was somewhere. But where was he?

"Maine? Please you don't have to do this!"

All he heard was the growl of the Meta.

"North I'm scared." Theta said.

"I know just keeping trying to call command."

The Meta jumped at North just missing him with his blade. The Meta shot at North with his Grifshot. North had just managed to dodge it.

"Theta, bubble shield!" North said as he threw it down stopping the second shot that the Meta had just fired.

That was a dumb move. As soon as the bubble shield fell. North would die and the Meta would have Theta.

It was only two minutes but it felt like an eternity. "I can't hold the shield for much longer!" Theta said.

"Just drop it." North replied, defeated by his old friend. He sighed, "Maine, take care of Theta, will you? He gets scared at night."

The shield dropped.
