Meanwhile with the crew:

After a few hours of cooling off Three returned to the mess and found Five and Six waiting for him

"So? What are we going to do?" Three asked annoyance dripping from his voice

"Listen guys I'm all ears for a plan, I think we can make this work but it has to be foolproof. That Rook guy isn't scared to call the G.A on us." Six explained 

Five glanced at Six, her expression thoughtful as she considered their options. "We need to approach this strategically," she said, her voice calm but determined. "Rook has the upper hand right now, but that doesn't mean we're out of options."

Six nodded in agreement, his gaze focused as he listened intently. "We know that Two is being held at Dwarf Star Technologies," he continued. "And we know that Rook has some sort of hold over Eric and the security there."

Three leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms as he mulled over their situation. "So, what's the plan?" he asked, his tone gruff with impatience.

"We need to gather intel," Five replied, her brow furrowing in concentration. "We'll start by hacking into the security systems at Dwarf Star. We need to know exactly what we're up against."

Six nodded in agreement. "And we need to find a way to neutralize that neural inhibitor," he added. "If we can disable it, Two will have a fighting chance."

Three's eyes lit up with a glimmer of excitement as he realized the potential of their plan. "Alright, let's do it," he said, a determined edge to his voice. "We'll gather whatever resources we need and make our move. No more waiting around."

"Okay so with the help of the Android we were able to access Dwarf Star Technologies live security footage, take a look." Five said as she walked towards Three and Six handing them the device

"Thats Two.." Six said as he pointed to the device showing Two strapped down onto a surgery chair

"Look at her.. She's filled with bruises and needles, is she even alive..?" Three asked in shock

"Luckily she is but she's just unconscious." Five said reassuringly.

As Three and Six watched the footage, a wave of anger and concern washed over them. Seeing Two in such a vulnerable state filled them with a sense of urgency, fueling their determination to rescue her at any cost.

"We need to move quickly," Three declared, his voice edged with determination. "Every second she spends in there is a second too long."

Six nodded in agreement, his jaw clenched with resolve. "Agreed. We can't afford to waste any more time."

Five's fingers flew over the controls as she accessed the security feeds, her mind racing with possibilities. 

"I'm scanning for any weaknesses in their security systems," she reported, her voice focused and determined. "If we can find a vulnerability, we might be able to exploit it and get inside."

With Two:

Inside the confines of Dwarf Star Technologies, Two stirred from her unconscious state, her head pounding and her body aching with every movement. 

She opened her eyes groggily, blinking against the harsh fluorescent lights that illuminated the sterile room around her.

As her vision cleared, Two realized she was still strapped to the surgery chair, unable to move or break free from her restraints. 

Panic welled up inside her as she struggled against the bindings, her heart racing with fear and desperation.

Alexander stepped inside the room he approached Two's restrained body and gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear as he spoke "I heard you weren't being very cooperative Rebecca." Alexander said in a low yet menacing tone
