"The week is long, the silver cat feeds, when blue meets yellow in the west" The three read as Anna listened carefully as she was now sober again

"I mean? It just, It just can't be right" Steve said closing scoops ahoy

"It's right" Robin informed

"Honestly I think it's great news" Dustin added

"How's this great news? I mean too much for being America's heroes, it's nonsense" Steve admitted

"It's not nonsense"

"It's too specific, it's like a code or something" Anna added

"See this is why I love you when you are not high, and it's obviously a code" Dustin added appreciating his sister

"What code?" Steve questioned

"Like a super secret-spy code"  Dustin replied

"That's a total stretch" Steve joked

"I don't know is it?" Robin asked

"You are buying into this?" Steve questioned

"Listen just for kicks ok? Let's entertain the possibility that this is a Russian transmission, what do you think they were say? Fire the warhead at noon?"

"Exactly" Dustin agreed as Anna nodded

"And my translation is correct I know that for sure, 'the silver cat feeds' why would anyone communicate like that unless they are trying to mask the true meaning of the message?"

"Exactly" Dustin agreed again

"And why would anyone want to mask the meaning of the message unless the message was somehow sensitive?"

"Exactly" Dustin spoke again

"So I guess that confirms your suspicion"

"Evil Russians"

"I can't believe I am about to agree with this strange child, but, yeah, totally, evil Russians" Robin smiled

"So how do we crack it?" Dustin questioned

"Well, I guess we translate the rest and hopefully a pattern emerges" Robin estimated

"A pattern, Right, like maybe 'silver cat' is a meeting place?" Dustin questioned

"Or a person" Robin added

"Or a weapon" Dustin added

"It's probably gonna take a super genius to crack it but- where's Steve and Anna?"

They looked back and found Steve and Anna next to a horse ride searching their pockets

"Hey Steve" Robin calls out "What are you doing?"

"Uh, it's a quarter. I need- do you have a quarter?" They jogged back towards the duo

"Sure you're tall enough for that ride?" Robin mocked

"Here" Anna practically grunted as he put the coin in the machine listening to the sound carefully

"You need help getting up, little Stevie?" Robin mocked again

"Shh! Would you two just shut up and listen?" Anna grunted again when she heard her brother giggle again putting all her attention on the music Steve and Anna exchanged glances

"Holy shit" Dustin swore when he realised "The music" he said taking out the tape from his bag "The music" He played the tape and the same music came from the device

"I don't understand" Robin was confused

"It's the exact same song from the recording" Dustin explained

"Maybe they have horses like this in Russia" Robin estimated

"'Indiana flyer'? I don't, I don't think so" Steve argued

"This code, it... don't come from Russia, it came from here" Anna said nodding

As they made their way out Steve got to his car and Dustin and Anna made their way to her car

"I could give you a ride if you'd like?" Anna asked opening the driver's door

"Would that be okay?"

"Totally, c'mon" Anna replied as she reached the passenger's door and opened it for the girl to enter

"You shouldn't have agreed" Dustin spoke

"Why?"

"You'll know"

She drove away at her normal speed with some hard rock songs on radio which none of the other two recognised

The whole ride was silent due to Anna focusing on the road and the song, Dustin in the back seat thinking about this whole Russian thing and Robin being too stunned to speak because of the speed at which they were going

She stopped the car in front of the girl's house as she stepped out bidding their goodbyes Dustin shifted to the front seat
questioning her

"Is is Steve?"

"What?" she started driving

"The way you reacted when I said you could have all the guy's you want and more"

"Oh"

"Is it him?"

"Ew No"

"Tommy H?"

"Bruh I don't even know him"

"Anyone from my party?"

"Y'all are literally kids"

"Don't tell me it's Max's stepbrother Billy?"

"Seriously? No!" Anna spoke in disgust
