As they were headed to the lab, Axel got a heat signature in his radar.
"Guys, stay sharp, we aren't alone in here."
"How many heat signatures you got rookie?"
"Just one sir, but this one, seems to be the same level of heat with us!"
"Ratchzass, protect rookie there, Chopshock, back-up the Lights, Medic, you're with me, we'll cover professor here."
"SIR, YES, SIR!"
As they were getting near the lab, the heat signature got stronger.
"Wait guys, hold your position."
"Any problem, rookie?"
"Well you see, at first the heat signature was small, but then it's growing larger and stronger!"
"If I heard what I think I just did then stay sharp."
Without any warning, a huge bear-like creature with thick metal skin----no, rather thick nanotech-like skin was building up the creature, leaped in front of the troopers and the Lights.
*RATATATATATATATATAT*
"RATCHZASS!!! HOLD YOUR FIRE! YOU'RE NOT EVEN SCRATCHING THAT HEAP OF NANOTECH!"
"THEN WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO HERE, HERO? SIT DOWN, AND EAT POPCORN?"
"That's why you got us, the Lights."
Tuesday then proceeded onto turning his cap, then his scythe suddenly appeared from thin air.
"HAYAAAAA!!!"
"I'll help you out, Tuesday!"
*RATATATATATAT*
*UWAAAAAA----*
The bear-like creature then was sliced into two.
"That thing, *pant* *pant*, was made of nanotechs!"
"Sure was tough, even my cannon can't take it out!"
"Everybody, QUIET! Somebody's still here!"
"PLEASE, DON'T HURT ME!!!"
"WHO'S THERE?"
*Crying*
"Huh? Wait guys, there's a girl in there."
"Girl or not, small or not, if we don't know who it is, then it's a threat."
"Don't worry now, what's your name?"
"DON'T COME ANY CLOSER!"
With that, the nanotech creature rose up, but now, it seems that it became more fierce and aggresive.
"ROTCHZASS GET OUT OF THE WAY! HAYAAAAA---!"
"Rotchzass, you alright?"
"Yes sir, I am."
"For now, we do what the Lights say, alright?"
"Sir, yes, sir!"
"I think we should just lower our weapons, Tuesday."
"WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I'LL DO THAT, SUNDAY? JUST BECAUSE SHE'S A LITTLE GIRL, DOESN'T MEAN SHE'S NOT A THREAT!"
"THAT'S WHY I'M TELLING YOU TO LOWER YOUR WEAPON! SHE'S JUST A LITTLE GIRL!"
"Okay fine, you win madam, now what?"
"Now, we talk to her."
"Ummm, HEY YOU! THAT'S RIGHT! YOU! ARE YOU THE ONE WHO'S CONTROLING THIS MONSTER?"
"DON'T CALL MY TEDDY BEAR A MONSTER!"
"YOU CALL THAT A TEDDY BEAR? Too much for a kid I think."
*Crying*
"Oh wait, did I say something wrong?"
"You just literally don't know how to talk to little girls, do you?"
"Then why don't you do it? I mean, you are a woman after all."
"That's why nobody likes you, Tuesday."
As they ended their chat, Sunday approached the little girl.
"What's your name?"
"I...uhhh...don't know."
"Wait let me see your tag. Oh, nice name, it says here that you're Annie."
"A...nnie?"
"You got that! Annie, that's your name."
As Sunday said the little girl's name, professor Montonio remembered something.
"Wait, Annie, do you know where you came from?" professor Montonio asked.
"I came from one of those pods."
Annie pointed out onto the pods that used to carry and take care of the Lights.
"DOES THAT MEAN THAT SHE'S ALSO A---"
"That's right Thursday, she's a Light."
"HOW COME? I THOUGHT WE ARE THE REMAINING LIGHTS IN THE PLANET?"
"Apparently, she survived the void of the darkness, which did not surprise me too much for she is a light."
"I guess it can't be helped then."
"What are you doing, Sunday?"
"Isn't it obvious? She's going with us."
"WHAT? WE JUST LOST SOMEBODY, GOT OURSELVES A COUPLE OF TROOPERS, which I am thankful of, of course, BUT A KID? HOW WOULD A KID HELP US IN DEFEATING PENUMBRA AND HIS ARMY?"
"Do not underestimate her, Thursday. She posseses a Persona weapon far more powerful than any of your Persona weapons. Her Persona weapon, are packs of nanotech that can take any form with just her thoughts, like what she did with that bear-like creature."
"How do you know all of these things, professor?"
"That's because I gave her that name!"
"Oh... I forgot professor, about your---"
"Shut it and let's get moving, Thursday. We'll be needing all the time we have. Annie, you're going with us."
"Okay, professor Mon----to---nio?"
"Good girl."
With that, they proceeded with the plan Thursday and professor Montonio planned.
