(Somewhere above the clouds, in a floating white fortress with a green misty glow to it.) Jay: *wakes up in a rocky prison cell that has one window and tries to move his arms and feet*. "Ugh! What happened??" Artemis: *unconscious*. "...." False: *unconscious*. "...." Jay: *looks to Artemis and False with worry*. "No......wait, I think I remember." (5 hours before Disciple woke up from his rest, Jay, Artemis and False agreed to check a little ways outside of the bunker, when suddenly, they were snatched up.) Jay: *excessive blinking*. "A Snatcher? I thought those were only in the dungeon...." (The door to the jail cell swings open, waking up both False and Artemis.) Artemis: *looks to the door entrance*. "What the?!" (A tall creature that is a mix between human and eel stands in the doorway, looking towards Jay. The creature wears spiked green metal armor with tubes connected throughout its body. No weapons are noticable on its body) ???: *green liquid dripping from its mouth*. "Sleep well?" Jay: *tensing up*. "You're an eel?" ???: "my name is Elik. My body might be some form of human but my head is all eel." Artemis: "Um, did you capture us?" Elik: *spits green acid at Artemis's feet*. "Of course I did! You 3 aren't supposed to have gotten this far....." Jay: "this far?" Elik: *slowly getting more irritable in his voice*. "subjects were supposed to die after the game was over, however, the game has been destroyed!! And I want to find out who caused it!" Artemis: *hurries over towards Jay*. "We didn't do whatever you are talking about!" Elik: "no? Someone killed Armityle, someone destroyed the bonfire! Fine, maybe it wasn't any of you, maybe it was the others that haven't been caught. Either way, they'll all be brought to this very cell." False: *clears his throat*. "Why don't you kill us if we didn't cause the collapse?" Elik: "kill you? Hah! You'll die, eventually, just not now, we aren't hungry." (Elik exits the cell and locks the door behind him.) Jay: *looks to False*. "Shit." False: *grabs Jay's shoulder*. "Don't panic." Artemis: *looking for her equipment*. "Of course they took our stuff, sigh...." False: *deep breath*. "We'll find a way out, let's just observe what we know okay?" (Artemis and Jay nod at False in agreement.) ---------------------------------------------------------- (In the streets of the Dark City after the battle between Disciple and Xenon has settled.) Disciple: *laying on his back in a pile of blood next to Xenon's body*. "So this is how it ends huh? No help in sight, me bleeding out, at least the others might be safer now....." (Disciple holds his hand over his chest wound as it continues to bleed out.) Disciple: *coughs*. "Damn lightning bolt....." (Rain from the dark storm above the clouds begins to fall down on the city.) Disciple: *pulls himself up to a sitting position*. "The sun looks nice.......no, I must be seeing things..." (As Disciple has lost a ton of blood, he shuts his tired eyes, waiting to die.) ------------------------------------------------------------ (BatPug and Saitonia have finally reached the city that they saw in the distance many miles from where they exited out.) Saitonia: *quickly looking around the streets at the entrance*. "I could've sworn I felt someone's presence nearby." BatPug: "are you sure? I don't feel anything." Saitonia: "tsk, that's cause you aren't like me dude. It was here at first but then faded away suddenly." BatPug: *silent as he looks at Saitonia*. "...." (Saitonia and BatPug walk up to a 4 way intersection of the city.) Saitonia: *looks to his right down a narrow road and notices two bodies lying in the street*. "There!" (Saitonia runs to the two bodies with quick haste, BatPug follows at a distance.) Saitonia: *looks down at the bodies*. "Disciple??" (Saitonia checks for a pulse on Disciple's body, nothing.) BatPug: *examines the other body*. "This is Xenon, what's left of him." Saitonia: *deep breath*. "We were too late......" BatPug: "...." Saitonia: *hangs his head*. "Damnit..." BatPug: *notices a small store with dim lights on*. "Looks like that's an armory building, we should check that out." Saitonia: "go ahead Bat, I'll catch up with you." BatPug: *stands up*. "Don't linger here for too long with your guard down, this place could get dangerous any minute." Saitonia: "....." (End)
