Meanwhile, Atari was beginning to wake up. When she was completely awake, Atari noticed she was bound to a chair with her arms tied behind her back via a rope that went around her waist. Atari's legs were tied to the chair legs. Suddenly, the man that kidnapped her before appeared from a shadowy corner of the room.
"So, your awake it seems." The man spoke.
"Who are you?" Atari asked.
"I am Taro, defender of the thermonuclear facility." Taro answered.
"Wh, wh, what do you want with me?" Atari stuttered nervously.
"All I want is your 2 Septima's and I might let you go. However, since it is impossible to remove your Septima's form your body, I have no choice but to hold you hostage until my boss retrieves you." Taro explained.
Atari shook at the explanation.
'Help.' Atari mentally squeaked.
Back at QUILL, Lumen was trying to help Gunvolt track Atari again.
'Why couldn't that girl just stay to her own? Why did she have to ruin my life?' Lumen thought angrily.
Soon, a yellow dot popped up at an abandoned warehouse.
"That's not far. I can do a quick run through and come back here." Gunvolt thought aloud.
Xiao then walked over and looked up at the screen.
"I've seen that warehouse before." Xiao remembered.
Gunvolt looked at Xiao curiously.
"Do you know where it is?" Gunvolt wondered.
Xiao nodded.
"It's 20 miles away from here if you go Northwest." Xiao answered.
"I'll ask Asimov if he could contact Mr. Shino." Gunvolt notified before walking off.
Xiao then sat on the couch with Zeno who was playing his new game, Army Invaders 9.
"I believe you about Atari." Xiao greeted.
Zeno put down his game before giving Xiao a cheerful look. Zeno then pumped his left fist into the air.
"Finally! Someone believes me!" Zeno elated.
Asimov then walked over to where Zeno and Xiao were.
"There you two are. I was wondering if you two would like to help out with this mission." Asimov spoke.
Zeno and Xiao nodded. The two then got off of the couch. Asimov then walked over to where Gunvolt was talking with Moniqa.
"I've contacted Mr. Shino. He'll meet you at the next block over on the right." Asimov informed.
Gunvolt nodded before looking at Zeno.
"I hope you like company Geeves." Zeno smiled.
"How come?" Gunvolt pondered aloud.
"Xiao and I are coming too." Zeno answered.
Xiao then walked over.
"We'd better get going." Xiao recommended.
