Uzi POV

We all rebooted to our hiding spot still un compromised, somehow.

"I forgot all this is happening." Darcy said apon waking up.

"How could you forget all of this was happening?" Xena asked, confused.

"Is N awake?" Darcy asked.

"No, he sleeps in often," I replied.

"No new entries in my email." Xena informed.

"No new virtual papers," I reported.

"What's going on?" N asked, finally awake.

"Nothing new has been found." Darcy quickly informed.

"Great. Should we check outside?" N asked.

"The sun is only just setting, we should wait for a bit," Xena replied.

"Alright. So no new emails, or virtual papers at all?" N asked.

"Nope, nothing at all," Darcy answered. "Oh wait, I just got something!"

"So did I!" I yelled.

"It's about the rebels!" Darcy started.

"They killed 2 murder drones..." I continued.

"And are heading..." Darcy added.

"Right for us." I finished.

"How did you find all of that out?" Xena asked, confused.

"Well, do you hear that?" I asked. We stopped speaking, and sure enough, we heard the faint marching of feet.

"Are they actually getting closer?" N asked.

"I mean, probably," I replied.

"Let's just go deeper in the sewers. Also, there's no way they'll check in the sewers generally." Xena ordered.

"Alright. Make sure to stay in the darkness." I ordered as we entered the darkness. Just like the shaft, the light became a distant memory, but our visors lit the way to the next manhole.

"Is this really how we are going to traverse the world now?" N asked in the darkness.

"No, obviously," I replied. "But it will take some time."

"What about you, Xena?" I asked, only to get no response back.

"Oh no." N said, looking behind us. We saw 4 pairs of X's which quickly launched towards us. We threw all our weaponry at them as fast as we possibly could, but they still got us.

Darcy POV

"Darcy?" Darcy, wake up!" I woke up. I assured Xena and looked at our surroundings. N and Uzi were there, and we appeared to be in some kind of jail. The other pair looked worried, and immediately tried escaping by cutting the bars.

"My weapons don't work!" N whispered, annoyed.

"Can we pick the lock?" I asked.

"You think they would use a physical lock?" N questioned.

"It's a possibility." I figured.

"Look, is there a vent we can use?" Uzi asked.

"Yeah, but we can't reach it!" Xena replied.

"Do we actually know who is keeping us hostage?" Xena asked.

"We saw 4 visors before we were captured. It's J, V, A, and Z," Uzi answered.
