Gager stopped crying after about 5 minutes. Then she looked at Mikel, that was looking at her with cold expression.

"Will you forgive me?" she asked

When he wanted to answer, suddenly about 10 dolls quickly approached them, aiming at Gager.

"On your knees, Gager!" shout Vector

"Put down your weapons!" answered Mikel

"What?! She just broke free! We can-"

Lee-Enfield's line got brutally stopped by Eora's slap, making everyone surprised.

"Are you dumb or blind?!" she added

"What did you said?!" said Enfield with anger, while massaging her sore cheek

"I said: are you dumb or blind!"

"Why are you defending her, Eora?" asked T91

"Because she didn't broke free, her cell got opened by us."

That made every doll aim at Eora, STAR, M4 and Mikel too.

"Are you crazy, or you got hacked?! She is one of most dangerous ringleader!" said Vector

"And?"

That question left G&K dolls with surprise. They weren't ready for this question coming from Eora's mouth.

"If she would be threat to us, she would be back in her cell, so if she isn't there that means, that she isn't dangerous, am I right?"

Silence answered her. Then she continued.

"All of us are elite at here. Gager is strong, but she isn't strong enough to kill all of us. If you understand that, please put your guns down."

Then Griffin T-dolls with hesitation made as she said. After seeing that, Eora left big sigh and turned around to see Mikel with satisfied smile.

"W-what?"

"Looks like you are much more independent, than I thought." he said

She blushed a bit and looked away.

"Looks like you are ready to upgrade..." Mikel said with very quiet voice, making everyone look at him with confusion "Alright then, what did you decided to do, Gager?" he added after looking at her

"I want to help you. Maybe this isn't enough, but maybe I will regain at least a bit of my honor by that." she said with slight embarrassment

"Let it be then." he said and stretched his hand towards her "Welcome in Alliance of Three Powers." he added

When Gager looked at him, she saw, that he was smiling peacefully with M4, while Eora gave her slight, compassionate smile and STAR was looking at her with confidence at her face. Seeing that made G&K dolls stunned, but they just stood with silence.

"I hope, that they will let me archive my goal." thought Gager and accepted his hand

Timeskip

When it was around 13 o'clock, base's checkpoint reported about 3 Patriot's trucks coming to base. When Mikel heard that, he quickly got to parking lot and welcomed newcomers.

"It took you more than I thought, Oleksandra." he said with teasingly manner

"Can't deny that - it's so fucking cold, that we couldn't get through some of roads. Moreover it looks like it will snow tonight."
