"Well, since Josh is one of Serena's slaves, we should get going," Frost said before getting only to be stopped by Scorch.

"You're willing to leave the future son of your own best friend behind just to save your fur," Scorch asked.

"Why not?"

"You sicken me, soldier."

"Look at the facts, Scorch. Josh is on her side now. The battle is over. Mobius is doomed to be enslaved for all eternity. There's no way around that," Frost said.

"Don't you say that, private. You should know the expression: 'When there's a will, there's a way.' Rocket wouldn't leave you behind if you were in Josh's place. Would you," Scorch asked.

"Actually, I wouldn't. Sounds like you're becoming a perfect copy of me," Rocket said.

"Well, there isn't a better role model than you."

"Thank you, general."

"Now, listen to me, hedgehog. We're going behind enemy lines to save Josh and his friends. If you don't want to risk your neck, that's fine. You can sit here and knit all you like. Just know you're less of a soldier than I thought you were," Scorch said.

"Okay, fine. I'll go in there, but if I get killed, it's your fault." Scorch and Frost then turned back to join Rocket and Sally who were trying to figure out what Sonia, Lara, and Josh were talking about.

"What are you doing?"

"Just trying to make out what they're saying over there," Rocket said.

"Now be quiet. We don't want to get noticed," Sally said.

"Okay, so when Dad, Uncle Scorch, and Uncle Frost are captured, I'll take over the watch from Lara, slip them the message saying I wasn't brainwashed and crack the lock enough for them to break out the next morning," Josh said as he explained the details of his plan.

"Sounds like a Josh plan. You're always the one to come with a strategy to save everyone, Josh," Sonia said.

"Thanks. I get that from Dad. Right now, you have to tell Serena that Dad, Uncle Scorch, and Uncle Frost are hiding behind that rock over there."

"I'll get right on that."

"You know the next part of the plan, right," Josh asked.

"Of course I do. I never zone out when you explain your plan in detail," Lara said.

"You didn't catch any of that."

"Not one word."

"Okay, listen up because I'll explain it only once," Josh said.

"Relax. I heard you the first time," Lara said.

"Then why did you say you didn't hear a single word?"

"I was just messing around."

"Well, don't do that next time. You could have seriously damaged the plan," Josh said before Rocket, Frost, and Scorch was dragged onto the construction site.

"Let go of us! You don't know who you're messing with!"

"If you don't let go of me this second, there'll be hell to pay!"

"And this is why I wanted to run back to New Mobotropolis," Frost said as he was dragged along with Rocket and Scorch.

"All according to plan."

Night fell and Lara was watching over Rocket, Frost, and Scorch as a part of her duties. Before he, Scorch, and Frost were captured, Rocket told Sally to rush back to New Mobotropolis in order to save herself. Sally did so moments before Rocket could be captured by Serena's army. While Lara was performing her assigned duty, Josh walked up to her in order to take the watch. During the switch, Lara had given Josh the message to give to Rocket, Frost, and Scorch.

"Good luck, Josh," Lara said before walking away.

"I don't need luck," Josh said as he started his watch.

"Josh, get us out of here," Rocket said.

"Quiet. You're not here to talk. You're here to die a slow but painful death."

"Great. We're trapped. Now I have no way to get back to Jessie," Scorch said.

"Jessie?"

"Yeah, man. We hooked up a while back."

"Great. My former best friend dating my rival," Frost said.

"Hold on. Jessie can be a friend if you two can just communicate," Scorch said.

"That'll never happen, Scorch. She hates my guts and I hate hers."

"That's too bad. I really thought you two would make the greatest of friends."

"Well, you thought wrong," Frost said before noticing the message right next to his foot.

"What is that," Scorch asked as Frost unfurled the message.

"Some kind of message, but I can't understand what it says and I don't know where it came from."

"But I can. Give me that message."

"Sure. Here," Frost said as he handed the message to Rocket. Both he and Scorch watched as Rocket deciphered the message.

"Of course," Rocket said.

"What?"

"I figured it out, guys. Take a look." Frost and Scorch watched as Rocket folded the message until it made sense.

"Now what does it say," Frost asked.

"It says: 'Don't worry. I'm not like everyone else and neither are Sonia and Lara. When I give the signal, break the cage door down. - Josh'," Rocket said before he, Scorch, and Frost saw Josh picking the lock to the cage door.

"What is he planning, Rocket?"

"I guess we'll know in the morning, guys. All we can do is get some rest before Josh's plan unfolds."
