A direct sequel to the events of Fractured and Matchmaker where Alistair and Isabelle infiltrate the DSC headquarters to retrieve the last of Alistair's shards he lost when he was blown up in the desert. 
===== Part 1 =====
Alistair joins Isabelle in her bedroom and creates a construct body to fuse his crystalline form into. He knows the DSC will recognize his body is a construct, but he has Isabelle use blood magic to let him make the body appear as real flesh and blood temporarily. He then transforms his construct body into his female persona Alice Frostburn. She then explains to Isabelle her plan for the DSC. Isabelle will be transformed into a statue form like him but without the part that prevents her from transforming back. Alice will bring her in as a captured rouge construct and once in the holding areas Isabelle will cause a diversion and Alice will retrieve her missing pieces. Alice also reveals that she has a contact by the code name of Vanguard who has hacked the DSC systems and made a key card for her. As the two are getting ready Chris arrives with a gift for Isabelle but she's forced to break things off and send him and her mother away claiming Alice is a friend there for a sleep over. Isabelle also dawns her specially crafted Rune Armor Alistair made for her. and takes Song Killer the Rune Weapon he gave her at the end of fractured. 
Alice arrives at the DSC headquarters claiming to have an emergency construct that needs put into containment. The agents let her through with her fake Key Card and check her out as she walks by. The pair have made it inside and plan to begin the next step of the plan. 
===== Part 2 =====
Alice brings Isabelle to the containment wing and places her statue body in a cell left unlocked. Isabelle sees a Dragon locked in the larger cage at the end of the room and is in awe. She plans to free it and use its escape as the distraction for Alice. Alice leaves and finds her shards in a lab near the control room but she is confronted by Director Zephis head of the DSC who wants to know what's really going on with her and an imagined emergency. Meanwhile Isabelle does her part and frees the dragon causing the distraction needed for Alice to get her shards back and fully restore her crystal body. Isabelle watches the fight between the agents and the dragon just as Alice gives the signal to get free. 
Outside the building Isabelle is about to teleport away just as Vanguard gives the signal that the teleport barrier is down. However, just as she is about to warp away Zephis blasts her in the back and knocks her off her feet long enough for the barrier to be restored. Isabelle fights off Zephis as best she can but Zephis' skills in combat and illusion magics give her an advantage and Isabelle calls for help from Alice. Zephis manages to dodge a strike by Song Killer and stab Isabelle in the back with an arcane dagger. Just as Zephis is about to finish things Alice appears with two conjured constructs ready to fight. 
===== Part 3 =====
Alice appear and forces Zephis away from Isabelle. They both fight head on, but Alice has the advantage siting she is a Tier 10 sorcerer and Zephis is only a Tier 8, but Zephis is in disbelief as there hasn't been a Tier 10 in years. Alice subdues Zephis but her back up arrives soon after. Isabelle thinks it may be best to surrender but Alice has other plans. She sheds her construct body revealing his true self witch Zephis immediately recognizes in fear. The dragon Isabelle freed earlier appears behind them and seems to be obeying Alistair to some degree. Alistair forces Zephis to order her agents to stand down and return to securing the containment areas. Alistair tells Zephis she brought this on herself by blowing him up and taking his last shards. Forced to comply to avoid losing any agents Zephis lets them go and lets the Dragon fly away. The pair teleport away but Zephis calls over her headset that there are drones tracking their teleport signatures. 
Back at the Island, the fully restored Alistair thanks Isabelle for her help and reveals his other contact to her. Vanguard is in reality Isabelle's best friend Claire Dupont who Alistair recruited for her technical skills. The friends are shocked at the realization, but both admire how the others performed their part. In exchange for her help Alistair gives Claire a tome on advanced Gold Magics and presents her with a resurrected form of her recently deceased dog, Raven. Isabelle questions Alistair on it and he admits he used Necromancy to revive Ravens body and make her back into a puppy. Since a dog's soul is less complex than a human, he duplicated another dog's soul to place into the resurrected puppy as its impossible to resurrect a soul that's fully passed on. Clair thanks Alistair and Izzy and agrees to keep in touch and do a few odd jobs here and there in exchange for a few lessons in advanced magics. Claire leaves with Raven and Alistair thanks Isabelle for her devotion and effort in helping him be restored. 
== Trivia ==
* Claire's dog, Raven, appears in Swap Poker after being resurrected.
* The DSC Headquarters are also seen in the one-shot "Babe Out Of Hell".
*This animation introduces Dragons as a canon creature in the SF universe. 
*Several other magic based creatures can be seen in the background of the DSC containment areas such as what appear to be gnomes, a phoenix, and several strange demon-like creatures. 
*When transformed Isabelle's statue form is a Sapphire Rabit, which suggests the curse transforms its victim into their spirit animal or one significant to them in some fashion. 
*During the Fight Scene in Part 2 a sapphire blood sorcerer can be seen with Fairy like wings fighting the dragon, likely an example of the Sapphire Blood Master spell, Arcane Wings.
