Warning

Sera and the others just finished looking through the bunker. They found no monsters, also the bunker was empty when the Apocalypse hit and no one in Havel made it down here.

That was kind of sad, but at least the whole bunker was fully stocked. It could house 1000s of people, has enough food that could last them a year and a huge armory, full of the eras highest millitary equipment. It wasn't the best by todays standards but still better then nothing.

Clockwork will stay here with Killshot, Will and 10 soldiers. The rest will go back and began the moving process.

Sera and the others were talking at the entrance to make sure everything was ready.

"So when do we bring them, a week?" Asked Sera.

"It should be sooner than that, they are already packed and ready to leave anytime." Answered Bea.

"Hmm... Lucy you know the city the best. What do you think?"

"My Lady, it will take nearly a full day to move that many people all at once. Of course, if there aren't any setbacks throughout the journey. Also, moving in smaller portions is not an option, we don't know when Nightmare will retaliate. And we can't move during night, unless we want to make light and die."

She took a deep breath before continuing.

"Our best option is moving everyone at once, with the fastest possible route. There is a high chance of people dying, but this is our best option."

Bea was about to speak when something weird happened. The soldier name Faith seemed to have a small seizure, then she got up and headed staright for them. She stopped a few meters away and spoke in a mechanical voice.

"Hello... Bea... and... Sera..."

It became clear pretty fast that the thing speaking wasn't Faith. Everyone went on high alert and pointed their weapons at it.

"Identify yourself!" Said Bea.

"I'm... a prisoner... in Lord Nightmare's... custody..."

Her voice started to become normal, but was still weird.

"What's your name?" Asked Sera, still not lowering her sword made of light.

"I don't know... he calls me Freak... I don't remember my previous name..."

Everyone went silent, until Sera thought of something and with a lot of worry asked.

"How... How old are you?"

"I just turned 8... or was it months ago...?"

'It... just turned 8... and it is a prisoner...? I'm going to kill that fucker!'

Everyone seemed to feel the same way, especially Bea. The only person who didn't look outraged was Lucy. She for some reason, just looked sad and disappointed. But Sera let it go since they had bigger issues.

"8 years old... and I assume he tortures you since you are his prisoner?" Asked Lucy.

"Yes... but only physically... and not like the other girls..."

"Just physically. That fucking bastard." Lucy whispered not daring to look at the puppet.

"Are you an Evolved?" Asked the Witchdoctor.

"Yes... my power makes it possible to move my soul outside of my body... I have been using it to watch all of you..."

"Well, that is kind of creepy." Muttered Sera. The girl turned toward her and smiled. It was the saddest smile Sera had ever seen.

"Sorry... I'm locked in a dark room, my body haven't seen sunlight since they placed me here... the only thing that kept me sane is that I could explore the city with my soul..."

She took a deep breath before continuing.

"But even with that, I wanted to kill myself... I'm in chains in my room, but there are monsters able to destroy souls and they could kill me... but when I was about to give up, I found a colony of humans who were happy..."

Her smile turned less sad and her speech finally resembled how Faith speaks.

"Then I learned of their brave leader Bea and all her friends. Then she found a partner in leading and in life. You two and every people under you kept me going. But Nightmare found out about it and used me as a spy. Torturing every information out of me regarding you."

She looked very ashamed as she continued.

"It was my fault Deathbringer knew of your plan, Nightmare also knows about the bunker and that you cleared it already. That's why I came, to warn you. I didn't know if this was possible or not, but I had to try. You should go back to the station and bring everyone over immediately. If you wait for a bit longer, he will be ready with an ambush."

Everyone was stunned by the avalanche of information. Her life was so sad that they didn't know what to say to any of it. Luckily their leaders were really competent, and in the face of danger they focused on the last part the girl said.

"How do you know his plans?" Asked Bea with reined in anger.

"I of course, spied on him. I have to go back, but please keep this person close. I don't know what the criteria is for my possesing ability but it doesn't work on everyone. If I learn anything, I will come."

"Okay, her name is Faith by the way." Said Sera.

"Faith... Please tell her to forgive me for this. And also thank you all, for not letting me lose hope. Please hurry with that rescue plan, there are a lot of people suffering more than me."

With that she was gone. Faith was about to fall to the ground but Sera caught her. And in a couple of seconds she was fine but really confused.

"Do you remember what happened?" Asked Sera with concern.

"Yes, My Lady. It was just really weird, that's all. Also it felt like I could fight her for control, but when I figured that out, she already told you enough to trust her. At least I trusted her, because I could feel what she felt."

"What did she feel?"

"Pure terror... and a miniscule amount of hope..."

Sera sighed loudly then promoted Faith.

"Congratulations Faith. You are now my personal assistant. You will only take commands from me or Bea. You can refuse of course but you are still needed to be close by at all times..."

Sera couldn't even finish her sentence because Faith was kneeling in front of her.

"Saint Seraphine, you are too kind. I will do anything you ask of me, I will provide help whenever I can and will do everything in my power and beyond to make your life easier! I swear it!"

Sera was feeling uncomfortable but also weirdly enough, satisfied.

'Maybe my ego is growing bigger, but I don't have to worry, Bea will keep it in check.'

"Rise now, Faith!"

A cheer went up as Faith rose from the ground, there was a beautiful bright smile on her face. Like she had finally reached her life's goal.
