0 refused to move from the cathedral and it became a unanimous decision that they should stay for her until she was ready to leave. All the while she whispered to the talisman or to herself or to the people that weren't really there.

7 was more worried than 9 was but none of them were as worried as 3 and 4. They didn't bother trying to get her to play. They simply sat by her side and refused to leave without her. They followed her everywhere.

At one point 9 sat next to her and watched the sunset. "Look on the bright side," he finally said to break the silent tension, "if we release them again maybe even more things will grow."

This didn't bring comfort to her. 3 and 4 clicked their eyes at each other and forced 0 to stand and walk inside. 3 sat her down on a fallen piece of ceiling tile while 4 projected a silent film onto the cracked wall. A smile twitched on 0's lips while she watched.

From the other side of the room 7 laughed at the film. 9 sat next to her. "I don't get it. Why are 3 and 4 able to make her smile so easily?"

"Maybe because you yelled at her?" 7 joked.

9 rolled his eyes. "That isn't funny, 7. You yelled at her too."

"Fine, fine." She sighed but she was still laughing quietly. "They're just more bonded, 9. That's the only thing I can come up with. For whatever reason the Twins were bonded to her from the start."

When the movie was over 0 caught 4 before he could injure himself. "Don't overexert yourself to make me happy," she told him quietly. "Thank you, still."

3 and 4 looked triumphant at getting her to smile.

7 leaned forward. "I think they've adopted you." She yelled out to 0.

"Yeah? You think so?" 0 sat 4 down on the tile.

7 nodded. "Yeah. I've never seen them get so attached to someone so quickly before."

9 couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?" 7 looked at him suspiciously but it looked almost playful.

"I don't think they adopted her as a sister, 7. It looks to me like they're in love with her."

"What makes you say that?"

"Well when we found that old music player remember the Twins kept fighting with each other over who got to dance with her."

"So? They've always bickered like that."

"They're also extremely smart, 7. Think about it."

7 stared at the three, deep in thought. "I think…you are absolutely insane." She finally said in a playful tone.

9 pushed her making her laugh hysterically as she tripped over some cement.
