Callisto made her choice. Io wasn't going to hesitate then. Yes, the gun was a bluff, killing her was never going to be a solution to this problem. "Are you sure, Cali?" Io didn't mind if they decided to take the protect Grover route in this final mission. But Callisto wasn't going to budge. "Your sister really needs to learn how to be selfish." Firis said, slightly amused. "Grover, there isn't much time. Look, they're going to get through your defences soon, and your android army isn't ready to fight." There wasn't going to be a big battle, this was going to end here and now. Either be killed by the mob, tried and locked away by the police, or taken away under the military's hands. Metis has the authority. "I see. So this is the way it is, then?"
"If you can promise Hymnos will be protected, then I surrender." But how could they possibly keep Hymnos safe? She was the server itself, connected to all the cables, connected to the supercomputers to keep her running. She even tapped in directly to the power grid of Port Viridi Island itself, it was the only way to keep her functioning given how much power she needed in order to do anything. "Who is Hymnos, anyways? What human was important enough to become the administrator unit?" It had to be one that held a lot of value to Dr. Grover. "My name is Hymnos." Hymnos replied with a soft smile. "My human name is Eliza Grover." Firis quickly scanned her database and memories for the name. "Ah." Firis said quietly. "You're the girl who was run over by a Hovercar and never woke up." She was Grover's own twin sister who never got to live to be an adult.
"I can't be moved, sister." Hymnos told Dr. Grover regretfully. Because of what she was, she had to stay here to the mercy of whoever found her first. "Take her into military custody, please." That was as much permission was Io needed. Grover gave her sister a sad look but knew it was fruitless. "Thank you for letting me live again. Goodbye!" Firis pulled Grover to her and Io activated the Stealth Field again. "Metis, we're taking her back." Io muttered, once again taking to the air. For now it seemed Io was going to have to remain fun-sized, wasn't she?
Once Grover finished last minute preparations they returned to Metis's house.
