It was a beautiful afternoon, as Lucy sat on a hill watching the sunset outside of the headquarters until Volt came. " Hey, you alright?" asked Volt as he sat next to Lucy. " Yeah ...-Oh Gosh-Excuse Me! Sorry, I zoned out for a bit," Replied Lucy in shock, " Oh! No worries. I can leave and give you some time if you want?" said Volt, " No! I mean no please.. I have something to tell you, Volt." said Lucy as they stared into each other's eyes " Thank you." Said Lucy " Oh, For what?" asked Volt, confused. " Just-Thank you for being here with me for these couple of days, I mean I just wasn't prepared and you saved me so many times-I-" " No worries Lucy, I Promise I will always protect you and be by your side even if anything happens." Volt cut in. Lucy sighed with relief and leaned her head on Volt's shoulder, as they watched the sunset together, Volt took both of Lucy's hands and held it near his heart, he really needed to protect her, since he didn't know what Pascal would plan next.


Back inside of the headquarters miniforce was hanging inside a lounge area as Commander Chen was reporting about the circumstances, the room was tense as he spoke, " M0G3 team, after what had happened for the past few days, we have requested you to take no further actions towards the light, so the headquarters can take it from now on." They all stared in shock " What!? We should be helping!" screamed Sammy, " This task has now become way too dangerous for you guys to maintain so we suggest you hide in the headquarters for now." "What?? We can't just hide here-like-forever!" Said Max fuming but deep down scared of the current circumstance. " Well there has to be something we can do?" Lucy asked, looking worried. " No Agent Lucy, I'm sorry but it is far too dangerous but I understand you all want to help, but we cannot risk anyone getting hurt now, You all are excused, and get some rest." They all sighed and said " Yes Commander Chen...." and proceeded to head out of the room, " wait! Lucy. I need to talk with you." Said Commander Chen as Lucy stopped to walk back into the room. " You want to see me Sir?" asked Lucy as she saw the tension in his eyes behind the same thick V-shaped black glasses he always wore. Lucy sat down on the couch next to Commander Chen's and listened in, " Lucy, you are in a potential of real danger, bigger than any danger you have ever experienced before. Now we don't know where Pascal is but he probably knows you and the team are missing by now so he should be on the lookout, his next move probably heading to the headquarters." Lucy looked shocked and struggled to take everything he just said in, " Wait, but when do we know he is coming?" asked Lucy panicking on the inside. " We don't and we won't need to. I have already set up 3000 rangers on guard of the headquarters to protect you and the others, but that's not the point. Now, you can trust me, did you or did you not cause the light?" asked Commander Chen, Lucy sighed and omitted, " I didn't sir." speaking stern and clearly. Commander Chen grabbed Lucy's wrist and yanked her close to him "worthless, lying, little girl!" Before Lucy could react, Commander Chen was no longer Commander Chen but he was Pascal, " You were faking it! You are not Commander Chen but Pascal!" said Lucy flabbergasted as Pascal stood there laughing, but before Lucy could speak again he clicked his fingers and all of the lights went out.


It was all dark, as Volt and the rest of the team got grabbed by zerobots, all hope was lost, Pascal had won. " Ahhhh! Stop! Let me go!" Screamed the team as Pascal's minions grabbed them all with an unknown strength. " Lucy is still with Commander Chen!" Screamed a voice in the darkness as they assumed it was Lina's. " So she must have been safe if she was with him right?" An unknown voice echoed in the room and they took it as Max's voice. " But don't you think it was weird how he said he didn't need help from us anymore? He said that really defiantly, like he knew what was going on." Echoed Sammy's voice. " and he escorted us out really stubbornly and promptly. Do you think he was hiding something?" called out Lina's voice in the darkness. "And he called Lucy in to talk with him individually- I mean if there was any more information he would have told the whole group instead of just Lucy, am I right?" said Sammy's echo, " also he sat awkwardly on a couch, and I know I don't know Commander Chen as much as you guys-like i've only just met him, but I know that he cannot be that informal." Said Jackie's voice in the dark. " That means that it is not Commander Chen but Pascal!" cried Ipas's voice in the pitch black. " So Pascal must have known we escaped and got here before we did and held Commander Chen and the other robot agents captive." The investagation was quickly concluded Ray's voice. " That means Lucy is in danger!" screamed a voice in fury, as the other teammate could tell it was Volt's. Before they could examine the case any further, meanwhile they were talking, the stronger zerobots had already brought them into another darker room where the lights suddenly turned on.


Meanwhile before, after the lights turned off, Lucy was seized into another room with her hands tied behind her back and a damp itchy bag over her helmet making it darker than it already was. The road there was really stumbly as Pascal grabbed her by her right wrist which was tied to her left wrist, which made her tottering backwards bumping into things, until she finally arrived. She was pushed onto the floor on her knees and the bag was removed from her head. Her body was exhausted and she could not see anything, until the lights suddenly turned on.


All of the miniforce members were in a room used for training, as they knew it was because of the 4 big posters with a target on them. On one side of the room with the target posters where the team were all held by the zerobots, on the other side was Lucy on her knees with her hands behind her back and the twin toads behind her as if they where forming a V, and in the middle was Pascal holding his scepter. The room was surrounded by zerobots which made it impossible for anyone to get out. Finally after a silent and long suspense Pascal spoke up, " I have finally done it! I have captured all of Miniforce!" he said with enthusiasm in his voice, He went to grab Lucy and yank her up towards the middle then threw her on the floor again. Volt's heart seized and jumped as he watched Lucy yelp helplessly on the floor. " Now, Do you want to tell us if you actually caused the light or not?" asked Pascal as he kicked Lucy, making her stumble again, " I don't know how many times I have to say this, but I didn't do it! Why wont you just believe me?" confirmed Lucy. Stoked by this answer Pascal walked across the room with his metal shoes echoing in front of Volt, " You seem to care a lot about Lucy, and she seems to care a lot about you Volt." said Pascal as Volt struggled to get out of the zerobot's grasp. " Like when we first met after the light that Lucy definitely caused, the interview, you know? You said you liked Lucy.." The whole room went silent and speechless and Volt's teammates looked shocked. " So what?" Lucy spoke up still on the ground. " Yeah he likes me and I like him too,there is no big surprise, unlike you always failing to destroy the Miniforce team over and over again." said Lucy, " Boom, Roasted!" added Volt, proud of Lucy's reaction to him liking her. Pascal fumed and grabbed Volt " Alright! I've had enough of all your nonsense! Tell me the truth! Did you Lucy or did you not cause the light, or else one blast from my scepter then he is dead!" Volt gulped as Pascal pointed his scepter at his head. Lucy thought for a brief moment, She knew Pascal couldn't take no as an answer so she just lied. "Fine. I did cause the light." said Lucy. Her teammates looked shocked and even Volt did too. They knew Lucy was lying but they didn't know she would lie to assure all of their safety, but after all she is Lucy,what else would they expect? But what was going to happen to her no?
