The Ancients Return

Part 5: The Frame and the Battery

When Agent 3 finally gets back up from that encounter with Frye, she is instantly met with a hug from Agent 1, who is excited and happy that not only did she survive with little damage, but also left like a boss...this is just normal behavior for Agent 1 for Agent 3.

Agent 2 however wanted her to bring the frame back to the main island for a possible future use, if they really need to. Agent 1 agrees with this, still very hyper about her win.

Agent 1: "Come on Champ! Let's go back to Captain 3 and show her this!"

Agent 2: "Quiet down would you Agent 1? My ears are ringing from your constant yelling and I don't like it."

Agent 1: "Oh uh, s-sorry, heh heh!"

She rubs the back of her head, while Agent 3 was lucky enough to somehow not go deaf by her, currently dazed, but shakening it off to focus on the task ahead.

Agent 3: "So...how do we get these things over there? It seems too big to fit."

Agent 1: "I'm sure They'll be fine, here, let me show you!"

She then takes the frame off of Agent 3's hands, skipping towards the pipe without noticing the sounds that it is making, making Agents 2 & 3 have miniature heart attacks when it leans too close to the ground.

Agent 2: "Agent 1! Slow down, you might break it!"

Agent 1: "Calm down 2! I'm sure this is fine!"

Agent 2 rolls her eyes at this new nickname, not knowing that Agent 3 went to go find where her Small Fry went. As Agent 1 still skips towards the pipe, she sees a bit of ice on the ground, and panics, running towards her.

Agent 2: "W-wait, Agent 1! Look down!"

Her words fall on deaf ears though, and watches as Agent 1 trips and fall on her back, the frame getting thrown forward and creating a loud sound on contact, making her jump, then turning into annoyance at Agent 1.

Agent 2: "Agent 1! Why would you keep going after I said stop?! Are you deaf?!"

Agent 1: "Hey, I heard you, I just couldn't stop in time!"

She starts to fight back, but Agent 2 is not stupid, recalling back to when even when she said the warning, Agent 1 didn't listen and kept going.

Agent 2: "Sure, you totally heard me and definitely tried to stop when I told you to."

Agent 1 groans in annoyance, going to grab the frame again, but noticing that something is off.

Agent 1: "Uh, where is that green, battery thingy?"

This instantly gets Agent 2's attention, now turning into curiosity after her moment with Agent 1 rather quickly.

Agent 2: "Oh uh, oh, found i-AH, IT'S HEADED TO THE WATER!"

Agent 1 jumps a little bit, before looking back to where Agent 2 is looking at, and seeing the battery rolling towards the water, and unfortunately, not a single barrier there to stop it.

Agent 1: "I GOT IT, I GOT IT!"

Agent 1 runs over towards the battery, only to completely forget she's on ice, tripping and hitting her head on the battery pretty hard, luckily not cutting herself on some of the sharp-looking pieces.

Agent 1: "Ow, ow, ow!"

Agent 2 instantly becomes worried for her, but decided to use her body to slide across the ice, approaching the battery.

Agent 2: "Sorry Agent 1, but I'll have to use you for this!"

Agent 1: "H-hey! The ice is cold, and you're hurting my back!"

Agent 2: "Just shut up and get the battery! I'll steer us around!"

Agent 1 was going to rebel against this idea, until she saw the battery reaching the end of the ice, which can fall straight into the water.

Seeing this, Agent 2 steers her to the battery, as Agent 1 holds her hand out, prepared to grab it as they get closer.

Agent 1: "Almost there...geez, my head."

Agent 2: "No time to be thinking about your injury as harsh as it sounds, we need ge the battery back! We could find a use for it, so don't mess this up!"

Agent 1 reaches for the battery, and as Agent 2 rides past it, she grabs the battery, although only able to hold it with a few fingers for now.

Agent 1: "GOT IT!"

Agent 2 looks down, feeling relieved, until ramming into a container, sending Agent 2 into the ground, while Agent 1 somehow shrugged off ramming head first into the container, only for her to reveal that a pile of snow lessened the severity of the impact.

Agent 2 gets up, and grabs the battery from Agent 1's hand, holding out her other hand to pick up Agent 1 from the ground.

Agent 2: "Okay, I'm holding the battery this time, you get the frame, and DON'T slip this time!"

Agent 1: "Okay, okay! I won't, I swear!"

She walks over to the frame, picking it up and walking over to the pipe one more, heading back towards the pipe, with Agent 2 following close behind, hearing the distant sounds of Agent 3 headed towards them after gettin a ton of power eggs from her Small Fry, as Agent 1 looks over at Agent 2.

Agent 1: "You think she'll notice?"

Agent 2: "Nah, I don't think she will, besides...

...I'm sure she's currently busy about a certain machine over there."
