The scene changed back to outside the building that Anton and Tess were inside. Axel slowly but surely began collapsing the building and surrounded it with lava.

R: Hahaha! Now that's what I call a fine roast!

Axel: Rüdiger finally gave me an excuse to get rid of that dumb Australian brat.

Z: Say has anyone ever thought what happened to A?

R: I don't know maybe she's like eating the corpses of those two... or maybe she's d-

Z: DON'T. You dare finish that sentence pal.

R: Or what? You gon-

Axel: Enough, even if she lost her spark as one of the many possibilities, she did it for the mission. We salute on her. But right now I'm busy, so you two keep you guards up before the Absolute Solvers and the traitors come.

He stomped on the ground more as the building's condition worsened.

Meanwhile inside Tessa untied Anton from his chair and got up.

Anton: We don't have much time-

Then a debris from the ceiling fell down and it was gonna hit Tessa, Anton pushed her away and the debris hurt his left foot.

Anton: Ahhhhh!!!!! *pushed the debris away and hold foot*

Tessa: Oh shit!

She went to check on him.

Tessa: Come on, I'll help.

She put his arm over shoulder and helped Anton hop and supported him.

They made it out of the room and were going downstairs.

Anton: I can't believe they'd do this, imagine working with them just to betray you.

Tessa: My guess is that Rüdiger gave them the signal to turn their back on me..

They then saw the end down the staircase is blocked by rubble.

Tessa: Fuck go back-

The building kept shaking as they both fell down the stairs and held on to the stair rails.

Anton slowly began climbing up but looked down at Tessa to see behind her lava slowly began rising.

Anton: Tessa grab my hand! *reaches hand out*

Tessa grabbed her hand as Anton pulled her and began climbing out of the stairs with his free hand while pulling the Aussie.

Tessa: This is ridiculous!

She helped Anton get up.

Anton: I don't know what that Rüdiger guy wants from Uzi and Doll but I know it's not something pleasent, we have to do something about it.

Tessa: Agreed, I trust you that you'll earn your free right?

Anton: I will but what about you?

Tessa: I'll see what I can do, I'll probably teach the three stooges a lesson.

Anton: That's literally suicide.

They noticed the lava rising up.

Anton: Listen, join us Tessa, we can-

Tessa: No Anton, they won't trust me they literally saw me kidnap and drag you along to this mess. It's all my fault....

Anton: Listen Tessa we may not have much time but don't blame yourself for it, you never knew they'd turn on you, and plus on this fight now you know you're not alone.

He raised his fist up.

Anton: If you need any assistance...I'm willing to offer myself for it..

Tessa was both surprised and delighted to hear that, she smiled.

Tessa: Now I know not killing you was a good choice, at least I have someone to rely on.

Then they heard clashing from outside.

Uzi and the others arrived to confront Tessa's former allies.

Uzi: There they are!

V: *spawns buzzsaw hands* Where is Anton?!

R: Inside getting melted haha.

V felt rage overcome her as she lunged herself at Axel and tackled him down, stopping him from using his powers.

This made the building stop collapsing and for the lava to come to a halt, Anton and Tessa didn't have to worry.

Anton: It stopped?

Tessa: Something must've happened.

R and Z spawned their rail guns from their hands and began firing at the gang.

Uzi formed a shield to protect herself Thad and N.

Doll's left eye glowed as she used her own powers to pick up Z.

Z: Hey!

She was going to split Z apart too but then a rocket was launched down from above and caused an explosion between them which cause a smoke.

Anton: There was an explosion!

Tessa then grabbed Anton and they both were at the edge of the window and they jumped out and avoided the lava down below.

They landed on a safe spot where there was just ice and snow.

Tessa: You ok?

Anton: Yeah I'm-

He stopped what he was going to say and saw an airship from above, it was grey and had yellow logos of JcJensen imprinted on them.

Tessa: *shocked* Rüdiger...

Meanwhile back at the fight, everyone coughed.

V paid no attention and was going to slice Axel but he pushed her away.

Then 3 chains dropped down from the airship.

R, Z and Axel who got up grabbed the chains as the airship turned around slowly, meaning they were leaving.

Thad: They're getting away!

N, V and J were angry as they flew up ready to stop them.

J: We have to get the key!

N: On it J-

A laser was fired, they looked to see a man and three more Disassembley Drones as one of the ship's hatches opened to reavel them.

J took a closer look, she then grew paranoid.

She saw Lucius with hands behind his back.

Lucius: Fire!

The three Disassembly Drones turned their hands into miniguns and began firing at them.

Axel, R and Z were raised up by their chains.

N: Oh no you don't!

He flew passed the lasers and charged at Axel and tackled him.

Axel held onto his chain, but the key he stole from Tessa fell off the pocket.

Axel: THE KEY!!!

J caught the key mid-air.

J: Not bad, for once you prooved useful moron bot.

Axel and his cohorts disappeared up in the airship, the hatch also closed down.

They began leaving, meanwhile J and the others came down with the key in possession.

Tessa: They left..

She got up and looked down at Anton and gave him a communicator.

Tessa: We can chat privately with this, if anything alarm happens do not hesitate to text.

Anton: Got it-

Doll saw Anton and Tessa.

Doll: Ты выжил, я впечатлен...(You survived, I'm impressed...)

She started approaching them, they noticed her.

Tessa: Shit, I have to go. Catch a ya later!

She ran off as Doll arrived to Anton.

Doll: Антон, я могу сказать тебе больно, но ты с девушкой избежали верной смерти. (Anton, I can tell your hurt, but you and the girl escaped from certain death)

Anton: Yeah but I'm fine, just hurt my leg a little after jumping off the building.

Doll knelt down to him.

Doll: Я знаю, тебе может быть трудно меня простить, но я прошу прощения за то, что случилось там на выпускном вечере. Мои намерения никогда не состояли в том, чтобы причинить вам вред и- (I know you may find it hard to forgive me, but I apologize for what happened back there at prom night. My intentions were never to harm you and-)

???: Anton!

They turned around to see the others finding them, V arrived first and hugged him.

V: Oh you're alright, what did that dumb bitch do to you?

Anton: Nothing really-

Doll: Он ранен, у него болит нога после падения со здания. (He is hurt, his foot is hurt after the fall from the building)

Uzi and J got worried and checked on his foot.

Uzi: You broke your foot!

J: It was either that or get melted, I say he did the right thing.

N: By the way, where is Tessa?

Anton knew Doll saw everything, but tried to lie to the rest.

Anton: She escaped.

Uzi: Why would she do that? Her lackeys escaped via ship. Nor did we see her.

Anton: She fled once you guys arrived.

Doll had a look of suspicion on him to which the latter noticed her.

V: Hey! What are you looking at! Don't try and act like a victim when you tried to kill him back at prom.

Doll: Опять же, я не собирался причинять Антону боль. Я знаю, что это трудно понять, но я надеюсь, что вы все понимаете, что я имею в виду хорошо. (Again, it was not my intention to hurt Anton. I know it's hard to process but I hope you all understand that I mean well.)

V: Bullshit! You lying purple-

Anton then raised his hands up.

Anton: Calm down V, Doll didn't mean it. I mean she did help you guys to try and take down Axel and the rest and seemed concerned for my health.

Doll looked back at Anton realizing he defended her.

V: Fine...I don't trust her! She wants to kill me-

J: Ok that's enough, I know you two have beef for whatever the reason. But we need you to put your differences aside. Because right now, we almost lost Uzi's key and could've landed in the hands of that....that devil.

Uzi: I hate to admit it but J is right, we can discuss this later but first let's take Anton back he needs rest.

Anton: Wait, you have the key? You stole it from Axel!

N: Yeah, all thanks to me *proud smile*

J: Don't flatter yourself toaster boy.

Anton: Oh come on J, cut him some slack or what not. He did well today.

J rolled her eyes with a smile towards the human.

The scene cuts to back at the bunker where Anton was resting in Uzi's room.

Anton: Are these amount of blankets really necessary?

Uzi tucked him with a third blanket.

Uzi: Yeah, tonight tempatures are dropping really low for you, so get warm, your leg is patched up. I just need to finish a few things before I get here with my human.

She kissed his forehead.

Uzi: Don't forget you have a loving and caring girlfriend~.

Anton: One of us two, and a very angsty one.

Uzi: Bite me! *chuckled* Anyways I have to go, cya in a bit.

She playfully waved goodbye to her boyfriend before leaving, Anton smiled and snuggled up his covers.

But he couldn't help but worry about how Tessa will pick up after her team turned on and tried to kill her.

Anton: I just hope she's alright...

???: Heya!!!

He turned to see V on the door who had a fun smirk.

V: How are you doing?

She waltzed to Anton and sat on the side of his bed.

V: You doing alright there buddy?

She looked down on his foot and lightly tapped it.

Anton: Yeah I'm fine V, what brings you here?

V: I came to see my favorite human, you know...one that's like not actively trying to kill me for turning on the company.

Anton: I understand ya clearly V.

V: Yeah...*serious* I can't believe he almost killed you with lava....

Anton: Yeah, I'm glad that I escaped from his clutches.

V: Yeah....next time when I get him he won't be so lucky.

Anton looked at her as she seemed worried.

Anton: Are you ok V?

V: *smiled* Pft, yeah who says I'm not alright. I'm alright when I'm with someone like you. You totally rock!

She tried to shrug off the question and crossed her legs while directly looking at the human.

V: So....I take it the purple one is ok with J sharing you huh?

Anton: Well um-

V: Yeah I guess she did, after all J always cleans up after her messes. She is the leader of me and N for a reason hehe.

Anton: Yeah, guess you can say that.

V: The narc seems like a selfish type as she wants to keep you for herself.

Anton: Come on V, Uzi's just protecting me that's all.

V: Hmm....Thad did tell you that you're like a angel to her, but question is...are you really angelic at all~?

Anton: Ok what's that supposed to mean?

V: Oh, no reason Anton, no reason *smug*.

She then rested beside him.

V: Say, remember when you saved me from the sun back a while ago?

Anton: Yeah, the one instance where I shielded you from getting burned and found shelter and a drone for you.

V: Mhm, well I returned the favour and knocked down the lava guy to stop the building from destroying itself more, since you were in it.

Anton looked to her in surprise.

Anton: I knew it had to do something with him stopping, thanks.

V: I did it...for you Anton...~

She was silent, not facing Anton.

Anton: I know-......V?

She was poking both her index fingers together, she was silent.

Anton: V....is everything alright?

V: Y-yeah....all is fine Anton...

Anton: I can judge the look on your face that it's not all fine, is something bothering you?

V:....Maybe...Maybe I do feel bothered....

Anton then got up halfway and looked at her.

Anton: Talk to me V, you can tell me everything.

V turned to Anton.

V: You know before....I said stuff like "I feel nothing" and etc.

Anton: Yeah?

V: I'm feeling this.....strange feeling....we'll make it two...

Anton: What are they?

V sighed before looking at him directly in the eyes.

V: Well...the first one is me worrying you might get hurt like in this case and before when we went to that camp and when I almost killed your myself by accident when fighting R...

Anton was silent but smiled.

V: Why are you smiling?

Anton: That feeling is called "care", you seem to worry a lot about me across our adventures together.

V: Yeah....I guess you could say that....it's just....you did a lot for me and the others...you befriended us even when I tried to kill you even tho it was against my code...I just feel bad for almost doing that and without any mercy...

She felt bad about this moment, but Anton hugged her, making the robot girl blush.

Anton: It's ok V, I don't blame you. You were different back then, but you're very different now because this is the present and that was the past. I don't hate you for almost killing me, I never did hold any grudges towards you.

V smiled and hugged him back.

V: Thanks Anton....I feel relieved now that you told me you didn't hate me for that...I promise to make it up to you and keep you safe...

Anton: Not just me, all of us will be safe V. All of us, including you.

He broke the hug from V and looked at her.

Anton: Ok, now what's the second feeling?

V:...This...

She wrapped her tail on her right hand. Anton was surprised, but before he could say anything V pulled him for a kiss on the lips. Shocking the latter of her actions.

V then pinned Anton down and lied ontop of him, still kissing the guy like no tomorrow.

Anton broke the kiss and looked at V who had a sweet and sympathetic smile.

Anton: Second feeling is love, like how Uzi and J do huh?

V: Yeah...is it wrong tho?

Anton: I don't know...Uzi and J might have a say in this...

V: Buuuuuuuuuut....do they have to know?

She leaned closer to his face with a grin, her tail wagged around, her hands pinning down the human's hands on the bed.

V: This can be between us Anton~...

Anton: And if they find out?

V: Eh? Like I'll get yelled at them, big deal. I can take the yelling, but just be with me Anton. Live a little~.

She leaned in for another kiss but then the door would open, breaking up the moment Anton and V had, it was opened by...

To be continued....

OK guys, this was chapter 19.

Peace out!
