Pixle lowered in pain holding her heart.

"Pixle, what's wrong?" Michael asked.

"Her heart is failing." answered the shadow.

"What happened?" Beauty asked.

"Something's wrong with Pixle!"

Then, Pixle's vision faded to black.

"Get her to the office. Now!" Afton yelled.

Lia and Ash set Pixle on the office desk, and let Afton examine her.

"She's not going to make it if she doesn't get a arch reactor." Afton said.

"Then we'll get one." Lia replied.

"You can't just go out and bye a  arch reactor, you have to build one. And for Pixle, her reactor is going to need a very powerful core."

"Maybe the Entity core could be strong enough. From what I've heard it was made by a Creetling, so it has to be strong enough to save her." Ash replied.

"But the entity core was hidden thousands of years ago." Afton said.

"Some say that it was hidden in the Albino Peaks." Ash replied.

"Even if you did find it, none of you would be able to even hold it because of how strong it is. Plus, you wouldn't make it back in time."

"We have to take this risk. Pixle is far too endangered to let her die. I'm going to get that Entity core even if it's the last thing I do." Michael said.

"If he's going then I'm going. I did this to her so I'm gonna try to fix her." Lia said.

"I'm coming with you. I'm the only one who's ever been to the Albino Peaks. You're gonna need my help." Ash said.

"I'll stay here with Afton, and help him repair Pixle's mechanical parts." Beauty said.

"Alright, and remember we only have so much time. Pixle's gonna have to let the poison control her at times if she's gonna survive." Afton added.

"You heard the purple guy let's get moving!" 

"Right behind you, Ash."

"Don't worry, Pixle. We're gonna get that core and we'll make it back in time, I promise."

"Don't let them see your nightmare, Michael." Beauty said, as she put her hand on Michael's shoulder.

Michael nodded, and ran off to catch up with the others.

"What did you mean by that, Beauty?" Afton asked.

"Remember what he did to Chris? He may be the Hacker but that nightmare is still inside him."

"Well let's hope he uses it for good this time. Because only a nightmare can beat a nightmare." Afton replied.
