...
(Link takes a deep breath, following Hayato's instructions...)
(...only to have made a hiccup and set the timer to 200 seconds.)
(the Guardian is still resting in that same cave, so dormant that one could easily mistake it for a stone statue)
(its position hasn't changed one bit since Plink left it to its own devices)
Should be. Once the timer passes, we can descend the platform all the way down and retrieve the reactors. After that, we're good.
-Twenty Seconds pass-
...Alright, now we just-
-The tempurature begins to spike upward-
....?
-Higher.....and higher.....and higher, at an extremely rapid pace-
....!?
-The once dark void below is very quickly being illuminated in a bright green light-
...What-!?
-Hayato looks at him, horrified-
You did what!?
-The platform begins to glow visibly bright from the increasing heat. The temperature down in the pit has risen to the point that the computers can no longer properly compute it, and the number glitches out-
-Hayato RUSHES over to a large sheet of metal, and grabs hold of it-
We need to plug up that hole NOW.
-The shimmer of green can now be seen growing from the hole itself on the surface...-

-The light begins to pour out of the whole and into the cave proper as they approach-
-The pain is immediate. Link can feel the heat sear and blister his skin, make the air nearly impossible to breathe. He feels as though something is digging deep it into his flesh, trying to stretch it out like taffy. He hears voices, whispering as though just behind him-
Link.
Link.
Link.
Link.
L i n k .
LINK!!

-Better for Link to save his breath, inhaling air this hot would assuredly damage his lungs.-
-If Hayato's bleeding eyes and nose are any indication, he's not faring much better-
Gck-...
-However, he grits his teeth, and motions toward Link to help him seal the hole with the heavy metal slab...!-
-Heaaave....HO-
-KACHUNK-
-The hole is sealed, shutting the green light out of the cave and returning it to a low dimness-
-...It actually seems far dimmer now, in Link's perception, despite having the same level of light-
-Hayato falls to his hands and knees, blood dripping generously from his face, gasping for breath....-

Kitchen (Young Aichi)
-It seems that Aichi is trying to access the fridge by standing on a chair to reach higher shelves. He seems unsteady on the chair...-
"...Um..."
-...As he's looking in the fridge he realizes he has absolutely no idea what to get or what he even can get.-
-...Although if there are some sweets in there he'd definitely go for them. This boy has a monstrous sweet tooth.-
-...Someone might want to get the kid down before he falls and hurts himself.

Yus...
(Link carefully, methodically, takes one of the units...)
