I Wish Love was as Easy as 123

8 was slumped against a wall, unmoving. There was an 8-shaped hole a few feet above him, he hadn't gone all the way through but the dint was pretty deep.

"8?" 27 picked him off the floor. "Octoblock?" Her voice cracked, he didn't respond.

26 ran after 64, who had carried 13 away. 15 was on his back. They didn't look back on the cubes they'd left in the other room. "Where is that thing going with my baby brother?" He hissed.

64 took a left turn, still holding the struggling 13. His head hit the side of a wall, knocking him out.

15 whimpered, 26 could feel that in his left side. It made sense, 13 was a part of him. 64 took another turn and entered a room, the door locking behind them.15's Office.

27 was still shaking 8, trying to wake him up, but with no results. Maybe... maybe... maybe he was...

"8!" 27 cried, her voice high and shaky, "Octoblock, please, just wake up!" Tears were falling down her cheeks, "Please!"

He stirred, "6?" He yelled him pain as he tried to move one of his limbs, "What are you doing here, 6, go home, baby."

"8," She hugged him tightly, "Thank god you're OK, but 6 is at home."

8 tapped her shoulder, "27, not so hard on my shattered ribs, thanks."

27 loosened her grip, she often forgot her own strength. She picked 8 up off the floor and sprinted after 15 and 26.

15 leant against 26 as she tapped in the access code. DENIED.

"That son of a bitch reset it. I'd have to call 32 to get it open cause she set up the entire system."

26 kicked the door, realising that it was a bad idea a few seconds too late. His foot hit the solid steel and he few backwards, taking 15 with him. "Motherfu-"

"26!" She hissed, "Quiet." She pressed her head against the door and listened.

"I got him, boss, but 15 and 26 are after him."
"You had one job, 64. Take out 26."
"He's a wily one, but I don't understand why you want him rather than 15 or his brother."
"15 is here to get him back, as long as I have him, she will do anything I want."

"That sick bastard! He's using him."

"And he wants me dead..." 26 turned around when he heard 27 and 8.

8 wheezed and limped to 26, "Octonaughty is behind that door isn't he?"

"Octoblock, he'll kill you!" 27 went over to the keypad. "What's the code, 15?"

"It's been changed."

She punched the keypad, shattering it.

26 slapped the back of her head, "THAT WAS OUR ONLY WAY OF GETTING 13 BACK!!"

15 heard a click and the office door swung open. Octonaughty and 64, still holding 13, looked at them, 15 turned to the others.

"What are you planning to do with 13, Octonaughty?"

"You'll find out in time. 64, do your job."

"Yes master."
