A/N- WTF?!?!? 500 READS?! This blew up.

Agent 3's POV-

Octolings. I had a call from Callie saying about the problem and why I beat her into the ground, but mostly whining. As I hung up on her, I checked the time, 3AM. Calllllieee, why did you have to wake me? When I began to move, I remembered last night. I checked over and Eight wasn't there.

"Eight?!?!" I shouted

"Yea?!?!" He said with evident panic on his face, as he poked round the corner.

"Oh..." I said, slowly calming down "I had thought that..." I trailed off

"That what?"

"N-nothing"

"You sure?" He asked, still sounding worried

"Y-yea, don't worry about me"

"Okay... Well, I'm guessing you got Callie's message then. What do you think could have happened down there?"

"A lot, if we're being called there"

"Maybe the octolings have broken out of the test chambers''

"That'll be a lot of sanitised Octos then, but still, how hard can it be? You fought against at least twenty of them in one chamber!" I exclaimed

"Yea... but I did have like 17 specials..." Eight said miserably

"Ok Eight, look at me" He did so but still looking towards the floor "My eyes are up here, Eight"

"I'm sorry, I just... don't like splatting my own race" He said, shamefaced

"And you shouldn't unless your playing turf war, but no ones ever been in your shoes, so I can only give moral support" I explained

"Its ok, just give me a minute"

Agent 0's POV (Me!)-

"Why?... Why me?..." Eight sobbed "Why can't others carry this burden and not me?..."

As he was about to unlock his rooms door, his mind was spiked with pain and he shouted out "THREE! Three!... Three..." as he passed out

As soon as he said this, she jumped up and shoulder-barged through the door, subsequently breaking the lock.

"Eight!" she shouted. Being a practical person, she checked his pulse. When she felt it, she breathed a very small sigh of relief, then panic wormed its way back in and so she did. Panic. Fumbling around, she finally got her SquidSung and called, with shaking fingers, Capt' and A4.

That was her weakness. Her panic attacks. They stopped her from thinking straight. It didn't help that she also had anxiety, and all she could do was wait in unsuspended terror and overwhelming thoughts and she herself, passed out.

And that's how Eight disappeared without a trace, carried off in to the night...
