Alexandria and the others travelled far beyond the reach of the Walker City.

Alexandria was worried for her parents and the city. She saw their faces at night while she tried to sleep on the bare ground. She just couldn't forget the experience.

Sandra's leg healed over time, and she became healthy. Jason and Margrethe lead them into nothingness, walking miles and miles.

One day, Alexandria stumbled on a round bronze thing. She picked it up, and was surprised to see the AW logo on the circle. She brought it to Margrethe, who named it as a "prophecy disk".

"This kind of disks were used by #28300 to unravel the past of her life." Margrethe said. 

"Wow, you really did research into Lily Cadieux's life," said Jason, smiling. He was the only one who smiled.

Margrethe continued, "These appear when a Walker City is near. That must mean some ancient or modern city is very near."

Sandra said, "A Walker City, near? I don't think so."

Alexandria said, "There are four directions. We should split up. Margrethe can go to the north, Jason to the south. I will go to the east, and Sandra could go to the west."

They all split up, and then Alexandria sprinted off to the east. She explored every little patch of land, searching for the city or some more disks. Sadly, she had to return empty handed.

When she did return, she found her friends gone. 

Nothing remained but Sandra's black AW jacket which she was wearing before they split up. Alexandria noticed Jason's black cap lying on the dirt, and Margrethe's mask on a tree. 

Then she heard a shout.

She looked up to see two RX-8s flying through the sky. It was like her home all again. She aimed her gun, and took out one of them. 

That brought the other one's attention to her, and that drone started shooting.

Alexandria rolled on the ground, trying to escape the shot. She heard Margrethe's voice shouting commands, and then a bolt pierced her hand. She heard a shout, "Alexa!"

And then the RX-8 fell from the sky, assaulted by two AV-8s. 

Alexandria looked up. Through a haze of pain, she saw the two AV-8s landing beside her. Sandra and the others arrived, and Jason helped Alexandria up to her feet. Margrethe applied some ointment on her wound, and then she said, "We found the city."

Alexandria said, "A modern or an ancient city?"

Margrethe said, "Ancient. Its name is Tjentiste. It is comprised of a small amount of houses and a shattered AW monument."

"That is where the AV-8s came from, I think," said Jason. "They are found in Walker Cities."

"Yes," said Margrethe. 

Sandra added, "I can carry Alexandria. Let's continue over to the city."

On the way, Alexandria asked Sandra many questions. "Who found the city?"

Sandra answered, "Jason did. He came hurrying back to find us assaulted by the RX-8s. They apparently followed us from the City."

When they reached the City, Alexandria was amazed. Tjentitse was a big monument, shattered in the middle. Even now, many pieces lay on the floor.

Someone whispered, "Welcome."

Sandra almost dropped Alexandria. "Who are you?"

A girl appeared out of one of the houses. "I am Kelsey. My ID is #57468. I used to live here."

"Wait," Margrethe said. "If you used to live here, then how are you not old yet?"

Kelsey said, "That is a question for later. First, come into my house."

Margrethe looked puzzled, but they followed Kelsey into the room. Inside was the smell of fresh cooked food. Kelsey served some food to Alexandria and the others, and sat down beside them.

"This is Tjentitse." Kelsey said, with a wistful tone. "Once, this used to be a huge city, the Walker Headquarters. This was the place where the White and Black Walkers united against the evil Red Nexus." She stood. "And now our enemy has returned."

Kelsey looked to Margrethe. "You were asking me, how I lived so long?"

Margrethe nodded her head, too stunned to speak.

"Because, my friends, I am Kelsey Cadieux." the girl said. "Sister of Lily Cadieux, better known as Walker #28300."
