The next morning, the sixteen chiropterans broke up into blocks and began to dig up the snow.

"How far down do we have to dig?" asked Lulu.

"The scanner picked something up at fifteen feet deep, but we don't know what it is," said David.

"That's still far down with all of this ice and snow," said Kai.

"Hey Hagi, I heard that you went on a date a while back," said Hibiki who was digging right next to him.

"It did not work out so well," said Hagi as he focused on digging the hole than talking with her.

"What happened?" asked Kanade.

"My left hand got cut by a broken plate, and she noticed it heal," said Hagi.

"So, when she found out that you are a chiropteran she freaked out, some people still can't accept us," said Dena.

"But don't worry, Hagi, I'm sure you'll find someone," said Saya. She then heard a metallic noise as she went to shovel some snow.

"What was that?" asked Kaori.

"I found what looks like the tip of a tower," said Saya. The others then ran over to her and first took notice of the hole she had dug.

"This hole is at least forty feet deep," said David with a stunned expression.

"I did not even realize till now," said Saya as she looked around.

"Whatever, just set the scanner so we can see what's down there," said Kai. Saya then took a small device out of the bag on her back.

"Let's see what we have," said Saya as she placed sensors around the tower and on it. Meanwhile, over on a nearby hillside, Diva and Nathan had been watching.

"I knew they would do all the work for me," said Diva with an evil grin.
