"Father!" she cried as she grabbed a torch and rushed over to a cell, when Bentley was. He looked up. "How did you find me?" he asked as Ciel felt his hands. "Your hands are cold." she gasped. "I have to take you home." "Ciel... please... leave..." begged Bentley. "I can't! Not without you!" she argued... before a black, scaly arm pulled her back, causing her to drop the torch in a puddle, bathing the place in darkness, except for a small skylight. "Who are you? Why are you here?" the xenomorph growled from the shadows. "RUN!" cried Bentley. But Ciel (nervously) stood her ground. "First, who are you?" she asked "I am Zero, the master of the castle. You have no right to be here!" the xenomorph (now known as Zero) growled. "I've come for my father." Ciel said simply. "Please let him go. He's sick!" Zero glared. "That's too bad. He should have not trespassed." "But he could die!" Ciel pleaded. "There's nothing you can do for him anymore" Zero responded as he started to walk away. Just then, Proteus, Anne Marie's father, showed up, accompanied by a bunch of Imperial stormtroopers, Klingon warriors, and Romulan officers. Ciel and Anne Marie turned to face them in shock. "Uh-oh!" Ciel gasped. "Daddy!" Anne Marie exclaimed in shock. "I consider myself a reasonable father! I have kept my patience till up to now, Anne Marie! I set certain rules and I expect those rules to be obeyed!" Proteus said angrily. Anne Marie bit her lip and began to explain. "But, Daddy, I--" "Now I am going to ask you once, and I want the truth! Did you or did you not rescue that mortal runaway boy from drowning?" Proteus demanded. "Daddy, I had to!" Anne Marie argued. "I told you not to go near him or anyone else, Anne Marie, and you know that!" Proteus scolded. "But if I didn't do anything, he would have drowned and died!" Anne Marie exclaimed. "Do you think I care? He is a threat to Bad Vader and the Forces of Evil. I forbid you from seeing him!" Proteus said coldly. "You're more of a monster than Mr. Carface! You don't even know David!" Anne Marie snapped angrily. "Know him? I don't have to know him! He is a threat to Bad Vader and the Forces of Evil! I don't care about your feelings for him!" Proteus shouted. That did it for Anne Marie, who couldn't hold it in anymore. "DADDY, I LOVE HIM!" she shouted with tears in her eyes. Upon realizing what she had said, Anne Marie gasped and covered her mouth. Ciel, Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, Mary Test, and the others gasped as well. Proteus looked stunned. "No!" Proteus gasped. His shock turned to anger. "Have you lost your senses completely, Anne Marie? He's a mortal runaway boy! You're an immortal orphan girl!" "It doesn't matter! I don't care!" Anne Marie shouted. One of the Imperial stormtroopers then pushed Ciel and Anne Marie into the dungeon.
