"What do you mean by thorough talk?" Decimal asked Hacker. "He's not going to get hurt is he?" Decimal didn't know what it was, but there was a feeling deep inside her that she didn't want any real harm to come to the purple cyboid. "Decimal, he's on the dark side for crying out loud. You should not feel any sympathy for him." Hacker responded.
"But sir! I..." Decimal started before stopping. She had realized that Hacker had a valid point. He was a bad guy and she shouldn't feel anything for him. "You what?" Hacker looked down at her.
"N-Nothing, Hacker, sir!" Decimal quickly responded.
"Good." Hacker responded. "You need to learn where your line lies." Decimal was confused by the last statement before she padded off to talk to Buzz and Delete who were in another room. She walked in with a sigh. "Hey, Decimal. What's up." Buzz asked when she entered the room.
"I don't know..." Decimal responded.
"What do you mean that you don't know?" Delete asked her.
"That's the thing, I don't know..." Decimal said.
"Want a donut?" Buzz asked gesturing to the box of donuts that was sitting on the table. Decimal simply shook her head. "I want to know one thing." Decimal started. "If those kids are so bad, why do they show so much compassion?"
"Well... they-" Deletes started before Buzz cut if off.
"They're trying to trick you!" Buzz quickly put in. Decimal looked at him before walking towards the next room. "Right." Decimal said. "I'm going to go lay down somewhere more quiet. Maybe get some sleep." Decimal went into the next room. She was exhausted. She laid down an she immediately drifted off to sleep.
Decimal felt a sudden pain in her side. She struggled awake. "Get up you pathetic mutt!" She heard Hacker's voice hiss. She barely opens her eyes in time to see Hacker's foot strike her side again. Decimal struggled slowly to her paws. "What's up, Boss?" Decimal asked with a yawn.
"It's capture time." Hacker said as he left the room towards the big, main room. Decimal followed him back out to see the approaching Control Central through the windows. Only if she could count how many times she's been there and back over this last week. Her side still ached from Hacker's kicks. Why would he do that? It was anybody's guess. She just readied herself to go wrestle with a bird. "Decimal, since this was your plan, why don't you do the honors of taking the turkey?" Hacker looked to her.
"M-Me?" Decimal looked back to him.
"Sure, why not? We'll be right behind you." Hacker told her. Decimal thought for a moment. "And if I need help?" She asked.
"I'll send Buzz and Delete." Hacker responded.
"And you're not going to leave me again?" Decimal looked at him with almost a glare.
"Of course not. That's why I came back for you. I wouldn't just least you with those wrong doers." Hacker replied. Decimal thought some more. This time, it took a little longer. "Alright, I'll do it." Decimal nodded. Here we go again... Decimal thought entering Control Central. She wandered around for a few moments just to make sure the Hacker would hold his promise of not leaving. It looked like he was keeping his promise. Decimal headed down a hall way and through a staircase or two until she found a door labeled, "Digit."
"Well, that's covenant." Decimal said before pushing the door open. Did she really want to kidnap him? Did we want to make him pay for betraying the boss? Of course she did. However, she had this feeling that something wasn't right about this. She poked the cyboid awake with a paw. "Digit!" She whispered.
"Is it morning already?" He asked still half asleep.
"Digit, please don't freak out. This is Decimal. And I-"
"Decimal! Motherboard! Doc!" Digit began squawking loudly. Decimal pounced on him trying to keep him quiet. "Shh! Hacker or Buzz and Delete will hear you!" Decimal tried to warn. That didn't stop Digit from struggling. He began pecking at her. He hit the same spot where Hacker had kicked her. She emitted a loud yelp and tumbled to the ground beside the bed. Suddenly, Digit peered over the side of the bed. "A-are you ok?" he asked.
"Why do you care? You obviously aren't concerned with my well being." Decimal hissed at him. "I came to warn you that Hacker is planning on kidnapping you. But you obviously don't want to hear what I have to say about that..."
"Wait, tell me more!" Digit commanded.
"Sure... Now you're interested." Decimal began to get up and yelped with pain. She laid back down again. "I didn't hurt you that badly, did I?" Digit asked her.
"You did. If I were you, I'd take one of your ships and get out of here. Hacker's going to come in any minute. After what he seen what you did, he'll be sure to show you no mercy. Scram, cyber turkey. I'm giving you a chance." Decimal snapped at him. Digit was just about to leave the room. He looked back at Decimal. "Thank you. You're not so bad after all." Digit told her before he left. Decimal didn't know whether or not she did the right thing. She was so conflicted by this point that she might be better going rogue than anything.
About ten minutes later, Buzz and Delete came in and found Decimal lying on the floor. "Decimal!" They exclaimed. They both crouched down next to her. "Did he hurt you?" Delete asked.
"Yes... well no... Hacker did. He kicked me twice. Digit just nicked me." Decimal told them. Buzz and Delete exchanged glances with each other. "So, where's Digit now?" Buzz asked.
"Anyone's guess." Decimal replied. Buzz and Delete helped Decimal back to the Grim Wreaker. These two were the ones that helps make her believe that Hacker has good intentions. They've always been so kind and loving to her. She would give her life for them. She just had to be on the right side of the scale... was she not?
"Wait, so you lost him? Decimal we could've had an evil mastermind captured!" Hacker said disappointedly. Decimal looked down at her paws. "Sorry, sir it won't happen again." Decimal apologized.
"Boss, she got hurt, it wasn't her fault." Buzz tried to reason.
"Yeah, that bully hurt her." Delete added. Hacker nodded slowly. "Alright, fair enough. There is no punishments on the good side of the spectrum." Hacker told her. Decimal smiled at Buzz and Delete for giving a stand for her. She knew that they would do the same for her as she would for them.
(A/N: Hey! So I've been thinking about a ship for Decimal. I was picturing something like if they were separated by the two opposite parties fighting. So, they have to hold a secret love with either side knowing. Decimal's a bit of a tsundere. This individual who Decimal might possibly be shipped with is... Digit! Surprise? Not really. These last two chapters I have been trying to make Decimal and Digit begin to connect, but not closely connect. I might throw in on OC or a shift in the story that could effect that. Anyways tell me what you think. Should Decimal and Digit be a pair?
