¹ "WHAT THE HELL IS SHE SAYING?!" Chip says falling to the floor in shock. Nova stepped closer go the book. She leaned over so she could see the wording in the book. Nova starts to mumble the words that are glowing then imprinting in the book.

The book read. "THE MESSAGE CUT OUT." Nova said as her eyes widened. "What did it say?" Chip said as Nova picked her up off the floor. "Seventh is trying to get in touch with us again." Nova said as Chip attempts to get out of Nova's arms. Jessica grabs Kristy before she could fall on the table. "I thought seventh was dead." Jessica says. "He is, It was a planned message. He was going to tell me something about Kristy or Rose I assume but, The message cut out." Nova says as she finally releases Chip from her arms. "Which means, he planned for her to be here." She continues. "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT FOR?!" Chip exclaims. Nova feels something take over her body. All of a sudden her eyes turn from what they were (Gray) to a deep dark black. "Y'Know Chip...." Nova says in a echoing voice. Jessica backs up into the hallway and manages to slip away to Nova's room to get the syringe. Meanwhile, Chip was pushed against the wall by Nova. "W-Why do you hate me Chip?" Nova said almost breaking into tears. "I don't hate you Nova. You help me so much." Chip says trying to calm her down. Nova wraps her arms around Chip's Legs. "I just wanna..." Nova says as her face starts to turn a bright red. "Nova?" Chip says concerned. Jessica comes back from the hallway. "Give it to her before she starts up again." Jessica hands the syringe off to Chip. Chip gently places the syringe needle into Nova's neck. She pushed the end of the syringe until the transparent pink liquid was gone from the tool. "That was the last one Chip. We have no more, If she starts up again we have to deal with it." Jessica says walking back in the hallway. Chip starts to think, "Why does she think I hate her?" "Was that her thoughts?" "Why did her face turn so red?" "Why was she-". Chip was stopped and greeted by Nova's light gray eyes. "Why am I on the floor?" Nova says. "You broke a phase of your mind again." Chip says sliding her back downwards to reach where Nova was. "Please get from between my legs, This feels highly inappropriate." Chip says. "STOP BEING SEXUAL IN THE KITCHEN." Jessica says, Getting the wrong idea. Nova gets up and moves back in shock. Chip looks at Jessica, "Us out of all people. In a position like that. Never." Chip says as calmly as possible. "I would never get in that position like that. Ever. Actually Jessica..." Chip says, picking herself off the floor. "You try calming Nova down, I wanna see you try." Chip states as she steps outside to get some air. Jessica lets out a sigh of disappointment. She sets Kristy on the couch. "Kristy, What are we gonna do with Chip, She's always so...on edge about things."

³ Nova walks out the back door to the garage so she isn't seen by anyone. "Where the hell do you think you're going?" Chip walks out from the darkness. "You went through the front door, Why are you back here?" said Nova. "Why does that matter?" snapped Chip. Silence filled the garage. "Go on, Tell me." snapped Chip again. "I'm leaving, I keep getting in the way of everything." Chip has a loss for words. Nova tells herself that the silence is a signal to leave, so she opens the garage. She was about to head out until she felt something mechanical grab her glass forearm and start pulling her back by force. "You're not going anywhere ma'am." Chip changes the mechanical gear to pull Nova back. "Just...Let...Me...Leave!" Nova squirms to get loose. Nova finally reaches Chip. "LOOK AT ME NOVA, STOP MOVING. YOU'RE NOT GETTING LOOSE." Once again snapping at Nova. Chip stares directly into Nova's eyes and says, "I know I may not want a relationship with anyone. I know I may not be the most happy about my body image as much as everyone else. But, I want you to know that we will take down seventh. Okay?" Nova looks off at the open garage again and leaves. "Y'know what, You walk away. I wouldn't give a shit in the first place." Chip goes back inside. "SHIT NOVA." Chip says slamming the door behind her as she slides down the wall. "What the hell is wrong with you?" Jessica peaks around the corner and notices Chip aggressively banging her head against the wall. "Hey. Hey. Hey. Stop. Tell me what happened." Jessica says stopping Chip from hitting the wall again. "Nova's gone Jess. She's not coming back." Jessica gasps at the situation. "I'm pretty sure she left for a reason do you know wh-" Jessica gets cut off by Chip. "BECAUSE OF US. WE ARE THE REASON SHE'S LEAVING. SHE SAID SHE'S GETTING IN THE WAY OF EVERYTHING." Jessica starts to become more concerned. "Look Kristy is crying, Let me go handle that and i'll be back okay." Jessica says helping Chip off the floor.

³ ½ Intermission...

⁴ It's been a month since we've seen or have heard from Nova. We didn't know how to cope. She was the one keeping us sane. Until one day in October.

⁵ "Could you get that Chip?" Jessica asked Chip. "No." Responds Chip, But she'd answer it anyway. "Hey There." Nova says with her hands behind her back. "Nova?! Why the fuck did you leave?!" Chip says choking Nova by the neck, lifting her up off the ground. "S-Stop. I came to explain everything." Chip dropped Nova putting her on her knees as she attempts to catch her breath.

⁶ "Go ahead start explaining." Chip says with an angry look on her face. "You know why I left. I told you why." Whispers Nova. Jessica walks in the living room where Nova and Chip stood. "NOVA?!," Jessica drops the clothes on the floor. "WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN? WHAT DID YOU DO OUT THERE IN THE COLD AND SHIT?! YOU MUST'VE BEEN FREEZING." Nova stars off. "Let me tell you what happened."
