"Yep, I wish I was around to kill that bastard, Cave, but he did that himself." Lucy said. "You should watch you're language Lucy, these four are children after all." Alicia said, giving Shade a look that said that this was getting Shade back for her and GLaDOS' tantrum the day before. "Actually, Cave is still alive, he's in Cryo-stasis and I got my connections severed after Sadistic core took over, so we can't get to him." GLaDOS said. "Gladdy, we don't hurt people, even for revenge, unless it's Sadistic core that is." Alicia said. "I know, I'm sorry." GLaDOS said as her and Shade sat down. "Okay, Kaylyn, where did you find these six?" Lucy asked, then looked around. "Kaylyn?" Lucy asked again. "Over here." Lucy said from Ferno's arms, he had hugged her. "I missed you, you know?" Ferno asked. "Same, but could you put me down before you crush me?" Kaylyn asked. "Sorry." Ferno said. "What was all that about?" Shade asked. "Just because I was programmed to only feel anger, doesn't mean that an error didn't occur. I've always seen Kaylyn as my little sister, guess that's true now." Ferno said. "Yea. What did you say Lucy?" Kaylyn asked. "I asked where you found these six." Lucy said. "Oh, actually I only found Shade and her family, then we meet with Alicia, then Kevin." Kaylyn said. "Oh, we should go get some of the turrets and humanize them so that we stand a better chance against Sadistic core." Lucy said. "Okay." GLaDOS and Shade said in unison.
The ambush was the last thing Shade and GLaDOS had expected. The group had split off with each group taking, at most, two of the children Shade and GLaDOS had gone with Alicia, Kate and Chell had gone with Kevin, and Kaylyn had gone with Lucy and Ferno. As the group had rounded a corner into test chamber 30 of track 01, Chell's very first testing track when she was still a kid from changing her age, several military androids had jumped out of nowhere and attacked. Shade and GLaDOS dove out of the way and readied their weapons, the same weapons that they had used to scare Kevin, or in Shade's case, just activate the battle mode for her disk minus the wires. "Hey Gladdy, toss me one of those guns." Alicia said. "Get your own guns." GLaDOS said before looking to Shade, they didn't have to see to fight since they could both sense were the cybernetic energy of the androids was. "Was that good?" GLaDOS asked. "That is about how most children would have reacted to someone wanting something that the child had." Shade said, Alicia was too busy with attacking the androids to notice the conversation. "Okay, though I doubt most children use guns, especially guns that fire pure energy." GLaDOS said. "Well we have to make adjustments to meet our environment head on." Shade said as she cut clean through an android, she had replaced the wires with two energy swords. "You two need to stop talking and start fighting!" Alicia yelled as she opened a portal ONTO an android and the android collapsed in on itself. "We are!" Shade said as her and GLaDOS pushed off of each-other and destroyed the last of the androids.
"Do you know what this means?" Alicia asked as she checked the two for wounds, like a mother would check a child. "You're not going to stop treating us like little kids, are you? and no." Shade said. "No I'm not. Think about it, these androids were waiting for us." Alicia said as she wrapped a piece of torn cloth around GLaDOS' arm, she had been grazed by a bullet from one of the androids. "There's a spy in our ranks, someone who has been with us for a long time, though not as long as Kaylyn, I don't think." GLaDOS said. "Exactly, but who?" Alicia asked. "Kevin?" Shade suggested. "I've known him since we got here, he's no spy." Alicia said. "What about Lucy?" GLaDOS asked. "She did suggest the whole idea, but if she was a spy then that would make Kaylyn and Ferno unknowing spies as they were both given their bodies by her." Alcia said. "We can rule out Kaylyn as a knowing spy, the way she acts is simply too childish, and I could tell from her body movement and tone of voice that she only saw herself as a child without family." GLaDOS said. "New rule, no looking into other machine's minds." Alicia said. "How did you know I looked into her mind by hacking into it?" GLaDOS asked, Shade answered first. "She didn't until you said it just now, it's a common way to deceive a child into telling the truth." Shade said. "Oh." GLaDOS said. "What about one of your sisters?" Alicia asked. "Kate joined Gladdy's group the second she was out of cryo." Shade said. "And Chell?" Alicia asked. "I'm not sure about her, she seems to love Gladdy now, but she use to hate her and want her dead." Shade said. "Don't remind me." GLaDOS said, she was starting to get use to the idea of being called Gladdy, since it was more human. "I think Ferno would be a likely candidate, him and Sadistic core have a lot in common, but the way he reacted to Kaylyn, the sibling love he showed her, it makes me wonder." Alicia said. "Could it be someone else, like someone hiding in the more hidden areas, relaying all information to the Sadistic core?" GLaDOS asked. "I only know four people who know this facility well enough to be able to do that." Alicia said. "Who?" Shade asked. "You two, though I'm positive neither of you are spies. Doug, though I doubt that he would do so since those things tried to kill us and he doesn't like the computer aided enrichment center idea. And finely Cave, he would no doubt do so, but he's in Cryo and if he came out then he would likely die within one second." Alicia said. "We need to go somewhere safe. How about we go to testing track nine, as I still have control over that area and I can bring in turrets and keep unwanted androids out." Shade said. "Sounds like a plan, let's go." Alicia said.
A/N: I got bored and so I typed up another chapter. A spy huh, wonder who it is. (leave your theories in a review)
