She guessed the circled house was the one she and Five were in and she saw that the lab they were in was on there too. There were roads and different houses and stores. All the houses were pretty far apart; the map was small on the outer part of it was just forest. She went back to the couch to show Five who was still sitting there. 

"I found a map that has stores on it, we can go get more supplies." Nine said and waved the map in the air 

"Really, let me see." Five got the map from Nine 

"Tomorrow morning we'll go here." Nine said and pointed to the nearest store 

"Ok, keep this map safe." Five said and handed the map back to Nine, Five and Nine started walking down the hallway. They both went into their rooms and Nine put the map on a table next to her bed. Then she fell asleep. She had a dream, she was in a dark cave. There was a fire in the middle and lots of aliens surrounded it. Some were huge, a lot bigger then the one she'd fought earlier some were smaller but all of them were just as ugly there was one at the front the biggest in the cave it looked like it was saying something in a language that wasn't english but somehow she could understand it. It said 

"Five months from tomorrow we will invade the earth with all our warriors. Earth will fall and we will rule." The alien leader was about to say something else but his gaze fixed on her and he charged and she woke up and it was light out. She went to wake up Five and grabbed the map when he woke up they walked into the main room. She decided not to tell Five about the dream because she didn't know what to think of it. 

"Are you ready to go?" Was all she said, 

"Yeah, let's hope we can find more food." Five started to walk to the door 

"Ok, let's go." Nine and Five walked out the door 

"The map says this way but it doesn't have any exact measure of how far away it is. Let's hope it's not too far." Nine said 

"Yeah." Five said back they walked in silence with Nine leading the way with the map for about 15 minutes when Nine stepped and the ground below her sounded hollow. 

"Did you hear that?" Nine asked as she bent down and wiped away the snow to reveal two trapdoors on the ground she was about to open them when she remembered her dream about the cave and all the alien's inside. 

"What's wrong?" Five asked Nine 

"Nothing." Nine responded, she took a chance and opened them. It was dark and she couldn't see anything. She used her fire and saw it was four feet deep and a path that led one way too small for aliens she relaxed. She jumped in and Five followed her and she still lit her arms on fire just in case, she started walking down the path. 

"Stay quiet." Nine whispered to Five 

"Why?" Five whispered back Nine didn't respond; they walked down a long path when they came across a door. Nine opened it slowly to reveal a large room with at least a dozen kids holding up swords. The room was a big forge.
