Inside the Center Hall near the entrance
"You know, sometimes I wonder why I always become a frontliner. It's like everyone put their trust too much into me", said Collen.
"Didn't you say you are the group leader?" Said Hailey joking.
"Yes, but it's not like this."
This is the second day of defending Center Hall and the sewer systems of District 7. Most of the people were inside Center Hall, while people who could fight scattered around the District to fight off the waves of robots coming down the sewer.
"Mom", Helen tugged Hailey's cloth, "Are you sure with my... "power"? We've only tested it once, didn't we?"
"Helen. Darling, you are already a pro at this", Hailey tried to calm Helen down while lowering herself down and grabbing both of Helen's shoulders.
"Are you scared, Mom?"

Hailey was shocked by Helen's response and Collen said, "Your daughter seems eager to continue her training, Hailey."
Hailey looked back at Collen and gave him a stare.
Collen didn't flinch instead he said, "Don't worry about your duty, I can do it alone", he focused back on the see-through entrance door and then said, "I've said it myself anyway, that I'm the group leader." 

Helen dragged Hailey and Hailey said, "Sorry Collen."
And Collen with a resting face staring at the outside from inside said, "Just like old times, eyy. Just me alone in front trying to protect my beloved one."

Meanwhile on the other side of the sewer.
"This was where I came in when I got chased, there are a lot of gadgets and machines that were abandoned. Should we bring it back?" Fillian asked Makori.
"Wait! We have to scan through all of this. Yesterday, you said that you made a new gadget from these piles too right?" Makori said with passionate energy.
"Yeah, but I didn't use all of them. That's why I was telling you this place."
"This could be dangerous if you weren't careful enough. Come here, show me the gadget you were making."
Fillian gave the disable-ator and hand belt that contained GPS and some other Fillian's hand-made craft, "These are the only things that I made."

Makori skimmed through all of the machines that were there and also Fillian's gadget. He found nothing from all of them.
"Okay we are in the clear, we could bring this back to Gerald or Taki. We struck a goldmine here. I can't believe I've never been here, I've patrolled every side of this sewer system and I've never seen this."
"Well, glad I found it for us, eyy."
"Don't be so cocky, Fillian. We have to barricade this entrance. They could be coming here."
Fillian became moody for a second then she said, "Macky, you know they won't. This is literally an unknown place within the GPS. I was even surprised when I made my own GPS that it was hard to track my exact location."
"Nobody knows that, Fillian. We could still be in danger."
"Alright, fine."
Then they both barricaded the entrance.

Another side of the sewer.
"Let me see your arm, Gerald, seriously!" Linda said loud and clear to Gerald.
"But you have to stop trying to inject me with... KYAAA" Gerald responded with panic.
"I never knew you had such a side of you, Gerald", Leonard said with a big slime while trying to not laugh.
"This is your fault that your robot self lacking oil. Didn't I say don't move too much whenever you try to engage in a fight?"
"How am I supposed to know when to stop when that robot that attacked me yesterday? This junk literally not built for me, I'm a man who loves to work out. Like, what did you expect? How could I do less movement while I'm in my workout mode?" Gerald grunted.

Leonard in the corner watched all that happen and tried to hold his laugh. After a while, he looked through the side window that led to the entrance of the tunnel. The tunnel that led to a construction site.
"Hmm, I think I felt something coming."
Both Linda and Gerald turned their head to Leonard and he continued, "Where did you put the helmet, Gerald?"
Gerald heard Leonard's request and threw the helmet, "Alright let's use this thing again."

Leonard put the helmet on and searched for a robot that coming through the tunnel.
Leonard found one and immediately collapsed and his consciousness transferred into the robot.
Alright! It worked, Leonard thought while checking out his body.
OI! FOCUS! WE ARE HERE TO FIND HIM. NOT PLAYING AROUND. said one of the IC Police.
Leonard mimicked the way they talked and said, "SORRY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME INTO ME."

After every robot that was there overtook his walk, Leonard shot them with all of the equipment that he possessed inside the robots.
"Heck yeah, dude. It never gets old", shouted him inside the robot's body.
One of the robots still awake and said, DAMN YOU TRAITOR.
Leonard responded, "Nobody cares about who side I was in, metal head" Then Leonard stomped the robot into pieces and continued, "You're already dead."

After that, Leonard destroyed their transmitter, including the one that he currently took control of. Then he came in closer to the van to make sure, Linda and Gerald took care of the robot that he currently possessed and got the robots remaining. 
"Good work, Leo", shouted Linda, "We got another group of them. At this pace, they won't be coming at all."
Leonard woke up and said, "Yeah, let's just hope that we can maintain this daily. I already found out the downside of this helmet."
Gerald responded, "Want me to take over the next time a new robot group comes in?"

Leonard looked at the helmet and said, "Yeah, maybe we can switch places."
Gerald with a big smile said, "Aha, finally! I don't need to get myself into injury again and try to be one of those bitchies."
Linda took a glance at Gerald, looked away, and said, "You still have to maintain your routine, Gerald. It's important."
Gerald changed his mood instantly, "I hate to be a half-robot."
