(This chapter will be very emotional)

2 hours remained until I could finally see Y/N again. I paced back and forth in my office waiting....and waiting. My hands folded behind my back as I thought about the results of this clearly. But before I could get any father than arriving at the Shadow base I lost my focus and trailed on into thoughts about Y/N. The events that had happened at Steamy Stacks made me believe that she was gone and that I had lost her for forever...

Glass was crumbled all over the floor and countless papers and writing utensils had been scattered across my room. I was broken. Who the hell was I at this point? What was I doing? I took another swig of my drink waiting for my senses to be numbed by the alcohol. I was sitting on the floor, my back leaning against the base of my bed. I'm foolish for ever leaving her side, for ever putting her in harms way. Letting the hands of such a filthy man touch her. "Tch" I grinned and tilted my head back, remembering the punch I gave to my shadow self. He damned well deserved more than that, I was going easy. I swished the liquid around in the bottle playfully. Then placed it down on the floor. No. I shouldn't be doing this...I tried to stand up but only fumbled back down again. I let out a hiss of pain as the I felt the gold grow more and more. I needed Y/N...I never thought possible but a tear escaped...

"You have a golden heart" Her voice echoed in my head. I looked down and peeked through my shirt, looking at the scar that the golden bullet had given me. Y/N was the one that had the truest heart of gold...

Y/N's POV:

"You said Midas would be saving me correct?" I asked Jules. Her gloved hand had let go of me as she and I loaded into a Chopper, successfully escaping the facility.

"Uh..yeah..He did say that. But I guess I did most of the help. Typical." I laughed and held tightly as we glided away. In less than a minute we landed and Jules told me to follow her. We stepped down into a bunker and what it had to show me was...

Chaos Agent, Rue, Sorana and Toxin standing peacefully in a small bunker.

"Welcome Y/N! As you see we had to relocate due to your party at Steamy Stacks" Rue spoke. Something about this woman disturbed me. She always had a strange aura following her.

Behind her was a pool of purple liquid and a metal device hovering over it.

"Your not going anywhere until we complete what we trained you for and that is to kill Midas" Sorana smirked evilly. I looked down to avoid her eyes, tears grew in mine.

"You lied to me...you lied to Midas..." I said to Jules. She said nothing in return.

"Its all powered up now" Toxin put on a pair of goggles and pressed a button.

"Since we're having a few difficulties making a copy of you. Well just change you...." Rue grinned. I was suddenly poked with a needle in my arm and I became instantly frozen. I couldn't move my body. Even before that I couldn't I was shocked...

"We have to get to The Grotto as soon as possible" Chaos Agent said.

Before I was pulled and plugged into the machine Jules came up from behind me and whispered.

"Im sorry...please forgive me...." Her voice sounded of tears but with all the lies I've heard, I shouldn't keep my hopes up. I was dragged and pushed into the liquid, multiple needles were inches away from me. I watched as Jules left the bunker.

I closed my eyes, I love you, Midas...I love all of you, agents...thank you for changing my life...all of you...

Midas' POV:

I finished putting together my armor. I retrieved my helmet, resting it in between my side and my arm. Jules should be here any minute to begin powering up the device, the plan was to prepare it for when I return with Y/N, then all hell breaks loose.

"You know what to do agents" I began. "We may be rescuing Agent Y/N, but we are avenging those that couldn't make it here. We are fighting for those that have suffered. We are getting this victory if it's the last thing we do" They all yelled in agreement.

"Move out!" Maya declared. Then we all headed for The Grotto.

"Midas!"I heard Jules behind me. I turned around to see her distressed face.

"Don't tell me it's not working" I said.

"No no! It's Y/N they are trying to turn her INTO a clone! I was stupid- and...an..I-"

I put a hand on her shoulder. "Spit it out Julia"

"I let it happen!" She lifted her head and tears streamed down her face. I pulled her closer to me.

"Then fight for her" I said handing her a pistol. She looked down at it hesitantly. "It'll be fine, she is a strong woman just as you are"

"They are doing this to kill you, like how it was supposed to be..."

I paused for a moment. It hurt imagining her this way. "Have they turned her into this already? Do we have anytime?" I ask.

"They are finishing it completely at The Grotto, they may have already infused her with the fluids..but...w-we might have time" My eyes widened at that comment. That is exactly what we needed.

"Go to The Grotto...I have an Idea..." Jules sprints away towards The Agency.. "Be ready to run at anytime!" She shouts behind her. I nod and latch my helmet into place...

I stayed up late to write this and it was so so so worth it. Its so hard to believe but its true and it's crazy! I just want to say thank you for all of this support on this story. You are all wonderful people and I'm so happy I was able to share this story with all of you and journey with you. New chapter coming soon.

Love you all
