Max POV

We all went back to the bridge of the ship. The main reason for this is because that it was the most stable area of the ship. The three of us were sitting down on the chair and were discussing on finding that Nova made. "With my observation and findings, I concluded that the planet is safe and the creaturs are not poisonous as I though. The common word I keep hearing and translating is the word 'inkling', 'octarians', and 'Octavio' so I believe creature A are 'inklings' and creature b are octarians'. Also the drones have pick up on some of the language they are using so Max, I will request of you to make a device that can translate their language. Can you do it?." I can see that she was tired, and I can understand why. We all haven't sleep for days. "I can do it. I also have an agenda of my own. The food supply we have are dangerously low. If we rationalize it, we might have atleast 2 weeks." I can see that Nova is complaining to herself while Mia is playing with her fingers. "How much? One ration per day?" I wish I could lie to her but I know she will see through it. "More like one every other day." Nova got out of her chair and begun to walk around the room while talking to herself. "First air is running out, power running out, now food is running out. Please divine beings of any kind, save us or end us I don't care. Max do what ever it takes, Mia get ready for a supply run when it gets dark. Bring anything. Food, water, even a screwdriver. I cant believe I am saying this, but we will be relying on you." Mia jump out of her seat and gave a salute. "Yep yep, you got it boss lady." With that we all got out of our seats and continue to do our task. "Max make sure to finish the translater soon. We got so much work to do, so please dont sleep until its finish." Wish I could help her out, but we all have work to do.

The sun on the last area we teleported Mia to has begun to set and Mia enter my work station lab. "Olay im readyyyy." I look at Mia and she is wearing a black commando outfit taken from the security bay, night vision goggles, and a lower part of a gas mask. She is carrying a electronic baton, concentrated pepper spray, and a crowbar along a satchel over her shoulder. "Your ready Mia?" "Yes sir, but should you be sleeping you look like you about to nap." She telling me to sleep, but I knew see she's not doing so well either. "No I'm fine just need to get the solar pannels and translater working then I'll take a power nap." "You better promise or else I'll be very mad." Mia puff her cheeks out like a little kid. I gave a small chuckle and told her to step on the pad when she ready. As I turn around, a bright flash of light appears for a moment and I continue with my work on making a translator and solar panels. I just hope she returns safe and sound.

Agent 4 POV

Man cant wait for sleep soon, but I still think about the black 'thing' we saw back on our mission a few days ago. Well tomorrow is a new day so no point in talking about it. When I got ready for one awsome sleep, my phone started ringing and I knew its from Marie because I gave her a coustom ringtone. "Hello?" "Agent 4 get over here were getting weird signals from the other day." "On my way." I knew I should keep my mouth shut.

As I got to our base Callie, Marie, and Pearl were huddle around Marina computer. When I arrive, Three and Eight follow soon after. Since they live together, its pretty common for them to appear together. Soon after Three begin asking question "what happen?" "The same signal appear were trying to locate its origin. Annnddd got it..." Marina was typing ferociously until she stop. "What? Where is it?" "The location said its in the city square." It didn't take much for all of us to scatter. I can hear Three giving us orders. "I'll get north side. Eight go east, and Four go south. Marina get us cameras we need all the help we could get." Three got more experience so we didn't argue and continue with the witch hunt.

Mia POV

When I finally see again, I was in...a city? But more importantly, I was ontop of a building. I dont know where am I exactly, but I do know that there are people down there so I should stay out of sight. I look around and I saw many shops that are closed, time to break in. I knew I was alone for a while and I needed to be sneaky so I ask Nova to barrow a mini drone to jam any cameras if they have any. As I got down to street level, I went alley to alley making sure to not get seen and maybe take a few pictures along the way. As I got to the door of what appears to be a food store, the back door was lock so I reach into my bag and pullout my lockpicks and with a pa-tink sound, I knew I was in. So...Much...Food. As I open the door, there was rows and rows of just pure food. I didn't even look at what I grab, if I can touch it, its was going in the bag. I grab a bag of what looks like a inkling holding a ring. I open it and ate a chip. A bit salty yet pretty good. I grab a can of whatever and drank it. Absolutely delicious. Imma just take some of these for meself. As I continue to hord everything, I saw the most beautiful thing I ever saw. I know my eyes can't deceive me and I began to tear up a bit. "CAKE." I though I never get to see it again. I made sure to make room in my bag so it can be nice and protected.
