The group had a secret meet up in the clubhouse the next day, wondering what they were going to do next.

"So, any news in the punishment front?" Uzi asked her boyfriend, cousin, and friend.

"Yes. I'm officially grounded from my phone for a month! What am I supposed to do what my hands now? They feel as worthless as human males with their nipples!" Lizzy said, holding her empty hands up, "I can only spray my name on the ceiling so many times before I lose my mind!"

"I am also grounded." Thad said, "And my skateboard has been taken away."

"Вроде как бессмысленно, когда у тебя сейчас есть воздушная обувь. (Kind of pointless when you have air shoes now.)" Doll said, pointing to Thad's new air shoes.

"It's not the same, bra. It's just not the same." Thad said, slumping.

"So, Doll, what about you?" Uzi asked, "Anything happen since yesterday? I learned I've been ingesting oil since infancy."

"What?" Thad and Lizzy asked but were ignored.

"Прошлой ночью я многому научился. Вещи, которые... которые меня пугают. (I learned many things last night. Things that...that scare me.)" Doll said.

Uzi, who received a similar talk, nodded her head.

"... I'm scared." Uzi said, a word that made the other three shocked, "This... Cyn... it's only a matter of time before she shows up."

"Doll nodded in agreement as the twins gazed at each other.

"I'm sure you'll think of something, right? You're always the drone with the plan, Uzi." Lizzy said to her.

"I don't know about this one." Uzi said, "Making weapons is one thing, but I don't know about fighting that thing."

"What about the upgrades you got from that camp? Surely one of them could be useful against this "Cyn" drone." Thad suggested as he shows his flamethrowers.

"Theoretically, but there's no possible way to test that." Uzi said.

"Not even in one of the unused storehouses in the bunker?" Thad asked.

"You guys don't understand." Uzi said, "Cyn isn't just some drone... she's the reason that the core collapsed! We don't have a way to test against something like that!"

"Well, what about Doll's new power? It crushed that robosaur like a tin can. Maybe that could help." Lizzy said, looking at the Russian speaker of the group.

"Lizzy, whatever that thing was, it wouldn't be nearly as strong as Cyn. Not to mention, Doll only has known of these powers for like 2 days, not even that, even with training, it would take years for her to even last a minute against Cyn." Uzi said.

The more Uzi shot down ideas with her logic, the more depressed the group became.

"What if you asked your parents... the murdery ones." Thad said.

"I doubt it but maybe. Their original plan was to make me a worker drone and look how that turned out." Uzi said with a shrug, "Though I will probably have to wait until night to sneak out... as I am VERY grounded. Three months."

"Я тоже, включая тренировку с моей мамой, чтобы лучше контролировать мой Solver и мою жажду масла. (Me too, including training session with my mom to gain better control over my Solver and my oil lust.)" Doll added.

Uzi decided it was time for a less scary subject.

"So, did you get in trouble for the upgrades?" Uzi asked.

"Oh, we didn't say anything about that." Thad said, "They were so mad about us sneaking out for an entire day that we didn't want to push it further."

"Mom would've blown a literal fuse if we told her and dad. They don't even know I wrote on my own ceiling yet." Lizzy said with a shrug.

"Well, I noticed your visors are back to their original color." Uzi said.

"Yeah, we found out how to change them. When we use our upgrades, they will go back to blue and orange." Thad said.

"Which is great for me cuz-"

"Розовый цвет столкнулся с твоей одеждой. Мы знаем. (Pink clashes with your clothes. We know.)" Doll said, rolling her eyes at Lizzy.

"Hey, it's very important that my outfit matches!" Lizzy said.

"If you want, I could make something for when you're using your upgrades." Uzi said.

"Hands free phone!" Lizzy said instantly, making the trio give her blank looks.

"I meant outfits that don't make you clash." Uzi said, "But give me a few days and I'll see what I can do about your... strange addiction."

"Thank you and it's not an addiction." Lizzy said to them.

"Посмотри на свои руки. (Look at your hands.)" Doll said blankly.

Lizzy looked down and saw she was unconsciously tapping the air with her thumbs, almost like she was texting without her phone.

"... This means nothing." Lizzy said.

"Sure it doesn't, Ms. Phone Addict." Thad said, rolling his eyes at his sister.

"Oh, like you can judge me! You wanna do tricks with that stupid piece of wood right now!" Lizzy said, jabbing Thad in the chest.

"Yeah but at least I have self control." Thad said, slapping her hand away.

'Oh boy, here we go again. Another sibling argument.' Uzi thought.

The cousins had to get involved once the upgrades came out.

"Okay, we're not fighting in the clubhouse!" Uzi said, holding Lizzy back.

"Возьми это домой или вынеси на улицу!(Take it home or take it outside!)" doll said, holding Thad back.

'Yep... these are my friends.' Uzi thought, kind of enjoying the small chaotic moment.
