I woke up not too long later, all patched up and, in the sub. Walter enthusiastically told me everything that happened while I was losing consciousness. "When he had his foot on my head, I was like-" He screams. "And Lance was like nooo! And I was like breadcrumbs, and he got surrounded by pigeons!"
I laugh as I listen to the explanation. "Nice thinking!" I compliment the boy. Walter laughs a little and rubs his neck and his face a little red. "He still got away with the database." Lance sighs. "Or did he?" Walter asks and repeats the question a few times. "I feel like you want me to say what are you talking about," Lance says, tired and defeated.
"Oh, I'll tell you what I'm talking about. During that whole bird-nado thing, I put a tracker on him!' Walter explains and points to a scanner where a blinking dot is close. "Wait, that's him? That's robot hand?" Lance asks. "Yep," Walter says, popping the P.
"Yes!" Lance and I shout. "My man! There's no way I could've done this without the both of you." He admits. I smile back to Lance as Walter asks, "What did you say?" Lance responds. "I think I said..." Walter interjects. "You said that you couldn't have done this without y/n and I."
Lance looks down in thought before I grab him and pull him in a hug. Lance sighs and wraps his wings around me. "I'm glad you're okay." He mumbles. I squeeze a bit harder and hear a pop. I open my eyes and catch whatever was falling. I hold up an egg and mutter in amazement "I'm gonna be an aunt."
"What happens in the submarine stays in the submarine," Lance says, but Walter's eyes light up in realization along with mine. "You're a girl!' The two of us say and Walter gets his backpack. "Oh," Lance says. "That's why I couldn't figure this out. I used Lovey's DNA in the serum." I chuckle and snap my fingers. "That's why! You have to make sure everything is precise. If you don't, the results could be catastrophic." I note. "Exactly!" Walter beams at me. "I'm gonna be me," Lance says as he looks at his wings. "Or you can stay a pigeon a little longer if you like." Walter offers. Lance makes a face and Walter sighs in defeat. "One antidote coming right up." He mumbles.
I pat Walter's shoulder. "He means well, he just wants to be back as himself," I explain Lance's reaction. Walter gives me a small smile before getting back to work.
The serum is completed, and Walter holds it out for Lance to drink. Lance takes a moment, looking at everyone, and dips his head enough to drink the stuff> Lance backs up before fainting from the process. I take out the spare suit in the sub and hand it to Walter. "Hey. Once this is all done and we get to the agency, we can show everyone what we can do."
Walter looks up at me, surprised. "We?" He asks. I nod and sit on the counter. "I know they didn't treat you right, but here you are, saving their life. You're a rare find, and I wanna keep you on the job. I've admired your work from the first experiment the director showed me. Not only that, but you've also been treating me as my being. I feel like a normal person around you, and I'm glad you have an actual conversation with me." I stop myself from continuing. "Sorry, I'm rambling," I say and look out to the water.
Silence fills the air until Walter bursts out "I wanna take you on a date!' My head snaps over him, and my eyes widen. Walter's face goes into a state of panic. "I'm sorry! I just never met someone like you, and you make me feel like someone, too! I like how talented you are, but how your care for pigeons too. I wanna thank you for everything by taking you out for a date." Walter explains.
I chuckle a little and put a hand on his shoulder. "Walter, you don't owe me anything," I say. Walter's face begins to fall as he thinks I'm rejecting him. "But I would love to go on a date with you. How about a rerun of Hearts in Seoul? I've been wanting to do that." Walter's face lights up and he nods. "Yeah!" He speaks.
We hear groaning and look to see Lance beginning to wake up. I look away and cover my eyes. "Lance?" Walter calls out. Lance groans and opens his eyes. Lance yells in accomplishment before he points out that he's naked. "Y/n found your spare suit," Walter says and I lift my thumbs.
"Thanks, Princess," Lance says. After a bit, I feel myself being lifted. I open my eyes and see Lance hugging me tightly. "Hahaha! I can hug my sister!" He laughs and hugs me tighter. The sub surfaces and takes us to a scary island. We reach the shore. "Robo hand is a mile to the west," Walter says and readies his watch. "So, what's the plan, team?" Walter asks and lists off the stuff he got. I get my helmet on and start getting off the sub until Lance firmly says "No."
The two of us stop in our tracks and look up at Lance. "No what?" Walter asks. "I'm taking it from here, Walter, y/n," Lance tells us. "You're kidding, right?" Walter asks, and Lance turns to show us his serious face. "Lance, don't you dare." I firmly say, but he ignores me. "Look, lives are on the line. I got this now." Lance says. "You've got this? But we're a team. You've said so yourself." Walter argues. "And you did your job. You un-birded me. Now it's time to do things my way." Lance says and activates his suit. "End this fool."
"This is wrong," I say. "Look, I've got everything that we-" Lance interrupts Walter. "This is not the place for your weird gadgets." Walter's face then twists into a look of heartbrokenness. "Weird?" He asks. I glare at Lance. "They're pacifists! They're a better option than killing. If we kill this guy, we're doing what he's planning to do. Kill people." I argue. "Go home. And take y/n somewhere safe." Lance orders. "No," Walter says and we both turn around to collect everything. "We can do this-" Walter stops as the two of us feel a pinch on our necks. I pull out a tiny vial and collapse on top of Walter. Walter tries his best to wrap a limp arm around me.
"I can't lose any more good people. And there's no way I'm putting either of you in danger." Lance says as he puts coordinates on the sub. The sub goes down as I once again fall unconscious, head resting on Walter's shoulder.
