Kepler and everyone else walked the snowy path smashing through the raptures that stood in the way. Kepler walks and walks but with each step it feels like he'll encounter something that was never their before.

"Kepler, are you alright? You look paranoid." Kepler dodges the question with a better counter question

"Do I look paranoid or is my face doing it again?" Kepler asks the Commander

"What do you mean is your face doing it again?" Kepler got him

"When I was human, I use to have a straight forward face where I've look paranoid, mad or maybe even dangerous that sometimes my own kids were scared of me." He said

"Oh I didn't know. Sorry for misunderstanding." The Commander apologizes

"Eh, don't be. We don't know much about each other. It my first time ever saying this to someone so don't sweat it."

"Alright, if you say so then I'll let it be." Kepler smiles at the Commander

'Lesson one: To dodge a question counter it with a question of your own that's also relevant to the question. Example: Hey Kepler how do I talk to women? Is it a women you want or is it a desire to have a women by your side? Now the person will question if they really want a girlfriend or they just need someone by their side or maybe he will stick with the same question and be annoyed after you try to dodge the question. Still don't do this in real life unless you can counter questions.' After Kepler's little lesson

"Anyways, did you ever make a move on one of your Nikkes?" Kepler ask the Commander

"I don't feel the same way the Nikkes feel about me. I just want them to have freedom but if they have an interest in me then I can't do anything but just say 'okay'. Kepler recaps his thought. The Commander is like any other Commander's he's met before. He genuinely cares for the Nikkes inside the Ark and out

"Alright then I hope your dream comes true." Kepler looks forward and sees the visible fortress. Also a building next to it which was weird but he paid no mind to it as he continues to walk forward

Continuing their journey, Kepler heard a soft static. He was confused yo what the noise was but as it kept getting louder. He drew his pistol out

"C....Coma...r" A hologram glitches as it struggles to connect and disappears just like that

"Commander, What's that?" Kepler curious of the hologram not knowing what it was

"It's just a my co worker trying to get a hold of me but the connection from this thing has been bad for a while but I think is from the last mission I did with Grave Digger." The Commander spoke

"Oh I encountered him too. I hate that thing. He moves around to much, it was better for me to just escape from there than just take him on." Kepler said as he saw the buildings door

That when he looks at the building closely and sure enough those were Raptures around it. Everyone took out their weapons

"Powder, let's go" Kepler and Powder ran to get in position

"Commander." He turns to see Ludmilla and Alice ready to battle

"That's alright with me. Just follow my lead" The Counters and Unlimited got in position and waited for command

"Powder you shoot that one on the left and once you do. I'll run towards the middle to catch one off guard, got it?" Kepler told Powder

"Alright" Kepler got in position and looked at Powder who was up in a tree. He signal her to shoot while he was crawling his way to get a little closer
