"Hey where's 009?" 003 asked, sitting on one of the living room couches. 006 shrugged. "Beats me," he said. 008 looked up from the novel he was reading. "What? You mean he's not back yet?" he asked. "What do you mean 'he's not back yet'?" 003 demanded. "He told me he was going on a walk and that he should be back sometime soon," 008 said. "How long ago was that?" Dr. Gilmore asked, joining in the conversation. "A couple of hours ago," 008 replied. 002 pushed himself off the wall. "004 said he was going for a walk too," he said. Dr. Gilmore sighed, puffing out a cloud of smoke from his pipe. "Then maybe they will meet up sometime along," he said, "003, see if you can find them." 003 nodded and closed her eyes, concentrating and scanning the surrounding area. She stopped as she found two life forces and focused inward. She looked closer and found 004 and 009. 009 was lying on the ground and had his head on 004's lap. 004 seemed to be talking and 003 pulled out of the vision, blushing madly. "What's wrong 003?" Dr. Gilmore asked, "you looked flushed." 003 smiled. "They're fine, just spending some quality time together," she said. The tension in the living room melted away and they all shared a moment of peace.

"009," a soft voice called. 009 didn't respond, instead he stayed unconscious. 004 had gently set 009's head in his lap, elevating the wound. 'Why don't you wake up?' 004 asked him silently, 'I did all that I could do. You should've woken up by now. It was only a simple head wound.' Upon looking closer, he noticed that 009's complexion was slightly pale. 'Could it be...that there was something more?' 004 asked. Suddenly he looked up, distant rumbling could b heart. "What's that?" he asked himself. The rumbling soon grew louder and soon it was deafening. 004 looked down and frowned as he found that the brown-haired assassin had not reacted to the noise as all. Suddenly the noises stopped and silence penetrated the forest again. 'Are...they gone?' he asked himself. Suddenly 009's eyes snapped open. "009!" 004 exclaimed. "004! Move!" 009 yelled. He somehow pushed 004 back. 004 watched in horror as 009 flew backwards, blood flying from a wound on his shoulder. "009!" 004 yelled. 009 bounced and somersaulted backwards onto the ground. He lay still afterwards. 004 turned, a fiery anger burning in him from a hidden depth inside. His eyes widened as he saw giant robotic animals staring at him with red eyes. One was a cheetah and another was a horned scarab beetle. 004 straitened his right arm and fired at the cheetah, yelling in pure rage. The cheetah seemed to collapse as one the legs folded like tinfoil under it. But 004 was not satisfied, he knelt down on his left leg and let loose the hidden missile in his right thigh. What was left was little pieces of metal and nothing more. He quickly got rid of the scarab and quickly ran over to the fallen cyborg. "009!" he yelled as he reached him. 009 slowly opened his eyes. "I'm...sorry," he whispered. 004 carefully cradled the fallen cyborg in his arms. "009," he whispered. 009's eyes widened. "004! Look out!" he yelled. Blood spurted into the air and a scream cut deeply through the night.

"003?" Dr. Gilmore asked. 003 was sitting rigid in her seat after having fallen asleep. "009," she whispered before fainting. "003!" Dr. Gilmore exclaimed. "Hey! What happened to 003?" 002 asked worriedly. 008, 007, 006, and 005 rushed in after him. 003 was sweating and moaning something inaudible. "Oh 003," Dr. Gilmore said worriedly.

004 gasped, blood dripping from his face. The scarab had somehow managed enough energy for one last attack. Now it had fallen to the ground, completely out of energy. A figure fell to the ground, blood staining the grass surrounding it. Someone uttered a name. Just a whisper that only someone that was right by his lips could hear it: "009."
