Something strange has happened to 0 since she came back. I was about to have my soul sucked out for the eighth time when she appeared in my window holding what looked to be the talisman I have currently but on the back was a cracked mirror and on the front were three holes. She wanted me to fix it.
"I can't hear their voices." She kept saying to me. How did she go from being a rational girl to being just as insane as 6?
She even used the talisman to suck out some of the Chancellor's soul. It left him cowering at the bombs that went off in the distance. I gave the talisman to an orphan and asked him to hide it.
While at her home when she was a human today I found an old video that I've entrusted in an abandoned library. I hope someday one of the stitchpunks will find it. They may be able to better protect 0 because of it.
My worst fears have been brought back to light and I am currently working on something to protect 0.
0 was sleeping on her bed. She didn't even wake up when 8 awoke even when the Scientist tried to wake her.
The Scientist watched 8 gather the weapons he gave him. 8 intimidated the Scientist but despite the intimidation he was fascinated that 8 would be curious about 0. As he walked around the room if 0 made a noise in her sleep he would hustle over to check on her and wouldn't leave her side for several minutes before gathering more things as either weapons or armor. Why was 8 so protective of 0? Maybe that was his role in the world.
Before 8 walked out into the day they both heard 0 whisper, "Guard us." A smile twitched on 8's face, it was so light that the Scientist thought he imagined it.
