    Selena had absolutely no idea what the heck was going on. There she was, just looking for one of her friends, and she ended up not knowing anybody anymore. She hadn't realized, however, that Terra and Hexa had left.

"We need to do something about her," Hexa explained.

"You're right, we do," Terra replied, "but what?'

"Good question," Hexa answered, and they thought for a while.

"I have an idea! Let's ask Hot Head. She might know what to do!" Hexa exclaimed. "Come on, let's go!" With that being said, Hexa crossed her arms in the form of an "X" and held up three fingers on each hand and chanted:

"Creatos Vortexia, creatos Vortexia, creatos Vortexia!" and cast the spell. A glowing pink and blue hexagon opened up in front of them, creating some sort of portal.

"Are you sure this is safe?" Terra asked, looking cautious.

"It's perfectly safe. I travel this way all the time."

"Well, they're you're portals."

"Vortexes. Now quit stalling and get in!" Hexa dragged Terra in with her, and within seconds, they dissapeared into the hexagon and the Vortex closed up.

When they arrived, Hot Head was working on her little project- the one she called the "Pyrosphere." She reasoned that, "there's a biosphere for earth, a hydrosphere for water, an atmosphere for air, so why isn't there a pyrosphere for fire?!" Hot Head got angry with this, so she decided to make her own.

"Hi, HotHead! We're trying to come up with something to do with Selena. We can't let her know about us," said Terra.

"Ummm... I have no idea what we should do. Let's go ask NONAME. She'll know what to do. And considering NONAME, she probably already has done something about it."

"You're probably right," said Hexa. "Let's go find out!" She re-opened the vortex dragged Terra through with her, and HotHead followed.

They came out in the main room in the IO-HQ, inside IO Mountain.

"I am an Earth-bound creature. Not made for portals," Terra mumbled, looking quite nauseous.

"Vortexes. Other people make portals," Hexa argued.

"I think she's up here!" HotHead said excitedly.

They went up the elevator into the interrogation room. Sure enough, Selena was strapped to a chair while NONAME's eyes had gone completely black like they did when she was erasing someone's memories.

"Welcome to the IO Headquarters," she said in a mesmerizing tone. "You will never see it again. How does it feel to be mind-frozen?"

"It is a very interesting sensation..."  Selena said monotonously, like a robot obeying a command.

Hexa, HotHead, and Terra smiled at this.

A little later, after Selena's memory had been completely wiped, Lydia literally booted Selena out of her house.

"Wait! But Lili--!"

"Ugh! I already told you, my name is not--- oh never mind. If you're going to be that ignorant enough not to listen the first three times, I'm just not going to tell you again.

And with that, Lydia slammed the door shut.
