...Infected? Oh, your eyes... Sorry. I can lend you my jacket to tie the sleeves around if you want.

It's no loss to me. I've got another one of these.

-Shuffle that off and TEAR the sleeves-

-They then tie the ends together and hold it up for Sayaka-

...Should I wrap it for you uh... What's your name? And your plan?

Upstairs - An unassuming bedroom

-Shattering Time can really take the wind out of a man, so the luminous lad from days prior had wisely chosen to find a bed and have himself a rest-

....Nn...?

-A rest that, evidently, lasted far too long-

-He sat up, rubbing his eyes, and looked out the window at the encroaching wall of Blank White, surrounding the abode, and the chaos below-

.....!?

-Hurriedly, he got out of bed, and ran out into the hallway, looking around in confusion-

What is-...?

- Omnimon is making ice sculptures to kill time, notable ones include a perfect replica of Seraphimon, a statue of a Megidramon fighting a Beelzemon and finally one of the Digimon Trio in their rookie forms playing together -

Many monsters. But fighting them isn't our goal, unfortunately. We're being overrun... and they've already started the end. We've been buying time to get people moving and out of here, and the rest of us should start moving to leave next.

Miki was never a particularly selfless person. Nor, for that matter, a very public person. Wherever she went, wherever she drifted, she thought of only herself, and she did it quietly. The limelight did not belong to her, and she had no real inclination or desire to claim it. Her work was a silent sort, and that suited her just fine.

Miki was not a warrior, and she didn't fancy herself as such. She could fight, to be sure, and she could fight well, but it wasn't her specialty. And, for that matter, she didn't really enjoy it. Subtlety was her art, and she felt it fair to consider herself a master. She was good at it. Damn good at it, in fact.

This had not been the time for subtlety. This was not a struggle where a clever word and a cleverly placed dagger would win the day. This was not even a struggle where they could help. This was the time for brute force, for the overwhelming strength of a hammer blow. And that was not Miki, that was not who she was, so she had stayed in the background. She didn't need to fight. She could subsist in the shadows.

But she had reached the end of that rope, and now there was nowhere left to go. She would not stand with her back against the wall and scream in terror as the horde washed over her. She may not have been a warrior, but she was not a weakling. She would not sit by and wait and leave herself to die. That was the fate of the cowardly, and Miki was not a coward.

It was nearly already over. The ground fell away, the sky crashed into the void, and soon there would be nothing left. Miki didn't want to die. She saw no point sitting around and waiting for the ground around her feet to just give way.

Miki would not die. Not here, and not today. She had more important things to be doing, and some wretched vermin would not stand in her path. She had been content to live off of the efforts of the others, but no longer.

Miki may not have been a coward, but she'd acted like a coward. It was a mark of shame for her, something that even her endlessly self-forgiving nature would not allow. She was duty bound to return the favor that had been given to her.

She gathered her things together. Her books, her bags, her scrolls, her little relics. She put it all away in her satchels and held only two things in her hands. The most sacred scroll in her possession, the litany of the old Atla Demna kings, their noble deeds and most heinous crimes. In her other she held her blade, a personal gift from King Varrinsk himself. It was made from prized steel, and inscriptions ran down its fuller.

Miki calmly walked outside and onto the grass, arms stretched out wide and eyes closed. Holy words were on her lips, incantations from ages past brought back from oblivion to serve her now. Her voice soared, and red and purple mist and light danced in the air around here. It was a spell she had never attempted to use before, but she was not afraid. She had studied it for a long time, made sure she understood it, just in the eventuality that she might one day need it.

This was just such a time.

The vermin tried to strike her down, but Miki would not have any of it. With effortless flicks of her wrist, she slew them before her, cleaving their twisted and unholy bodies into pieces. She'd trained well with her blade, and she whirled and lilted around the battleground like an ethereal dancer, words of power floating through the air, mixing in with the rich rivers of blood she was letting loose.

She was transfixed, locked in a deep, martial trance, not even paying attention to her surroundings any longer. There was only blood and ruin before her, and her only purpose in this moment was to add to it, to contribute to the great panoply of violence and death. She would not, and could not, fail now.

And then, all at once, she had completed her spell. She opened her eyes and planted her sword in the ground, a roiling wave of flame torching the skaven around her, giving her a moment of respite and space to work with. Her body, and everything around it, locked still, the mist and light dissipating. Nothing moved, not even the droplets of blood hanging in the air.

She took a deep breath, and then opened her mouth to speak once more.

By stone and star, be free! Serpent of our ancestors, bearer of life, be shackled no longer! Rise from your slumber, live once again! The Shaper gave you form to be our servants, to be our guardians, and I call upon you now! BE FREE!

The instant she finished speaking, a tremor rocked what was left of the ground. There were a few judders as the earth heaved, and a moment later an unearthly and primal cry rang through the air.

The earth itself split open in a catastrophic explosion, sending waves of striated light cascading before her. Miki's heart nearly stopped; she had done it. She almost did not believe it possible.

Before the dust cleared, a massive object began to rise. A vast being, a vast thing began to take shape, its constituent shifting and pulsating before her very eyes. At one instant, it was a great serpent made of water, and the next, made of the very stars themselves. It had no true form, not really, and so it shifted and changed faster and faster, too quickly to discern.

It was a truly colossal thing, and as soon as its entire length had left the ground, it slowly and stupidly oriented itself towards the great rat in the distance. The serpent needed no instruction now. It knew what it must do.

The serpent let out a great, mind splitting cry, cacophonous waves of primeval rage and anguish tinging its fledgling voice. Then, all at once, it leaped forward through the air, sailing towards the rat, its great maw open wide and spewing a colorless, blindingly bright beam of light back and forth, searing countless skaven into oblivion. Then it screamed once more and began flying in a circle, vaporizing almost everything in its path. The serpent had gotten the taste for blood, and now there was no stopping it.

After a short while of indiscriminate slaughter, the serpent turned its focus back to the great horned rat. It screeched, then surged forward and slammed its whole body into the rat, caring not for its own safety, wrapping its mighty coils around its body and squeezing with every ounce of its unimaginable strength. It roared in agony, the rat's malevolent energy tearing at it, but the serpent pressed on, constricting as hard as it could, biting everywhere it could and sending apocalyptic blasts of light out at every opportunity.

Miki stood, motionless, and simply watched her serpent fight. Almost immediately, she knew that it was in vain. She could not stem this tide, not even with her greatest weapon. She could only delay it, something that she was very sure she'd just done. Now there was only one thing left to do. She could not support the serpent; it would fight and die on its own without her.

She collected herself and turned and ran, getting to safety as fast as she could. Her part in this play was over, her moment of bravery spent, but that did not mean she was going to sacrifice herself. She was not a fool.

She stole away quickly and efficiently, carving her way through skaven with heartless, practiced efficacy.

Behind her, the serpent let out scream after scream and roar after roar. It fought on, desperate and furious, while its master quietly saved herself.

And so it was meant to be.

-They shake their head, the subtle look on their face showing their disappointment in the matter as well-

The monsters out there... they're like rats or... moles... but mostly rats.

They dug out what kept this world standing before any of us could do anything about it. If you'd like to fight against what's incoming, there's still a few others out there... but sooner or later, we'll all need to leave. I have my way... I know a few others do too, if there's still time to find them.

...Sorry to give you so much, after just waking up.

Outside

(A cackling, muscular man with long, blonde hair, a flowing red coat and no shirt is running headlong at the Horned Rat, his entire body crackling with electricity.)

(A much heavier-set man of similar hair-color and pale complexion is sending a small army of featureless white... things running for the Horned Rat.)

(And a great deal of commotion, the telltale sounds of slashing, crushing and snapping, echo from afar. Something— or someone is felling a great deal of the skaven, but their features are obscured by the distance, and they make not a sound aside from the din of their bludgeoning weapon.)

(A battered, bloodied and pissed to all hell Zmey Gornych, AKA Zamasu, AKA Comrade Leviathan is latched onto the Horned Rat's leg, chewing it with all his strength.)

But where are we even to go, Compañero Rodriguez...? It... looks as though— GAH! NGH—!

(Simón, small yet strong, fends off the skaven as they try to climb the massive salamander.)

...I feel... We will perish in the glory of battle...

(His posture begins to look a bit somber.

...Finally... As always wanted... Death.


   (A flash and a series of loud cracks and explosions.)   

   Ghhh— ARIA...!   

   (Jilian pants in exhaustion as she dashes for cover behind the barricade. She looks a bit battered... and is covered in rats' blood.)   

   ...I... I've tried to... provide support fire for those escaping bu— hh... so many... I'm... I'm scared... I dunno what t—... hh... My— my brother, he made it to the trolley... took some stragglers with him, that girl in the wheelchair who mentioned you... Roger made it out too, but... hh...   

   (just looks... incredibly grim and unnerved as she sees the vague shape of the Serpent from her cover. Tears well up in her eyes.)   

   ...I don't know... how to save the rest...   


Kitchen

(Ray looks to Solace, signing with trembling paws that he does not have long, but that he must, before he perishes, do something to help save—)

(The only star left in the blank sky meets its inevitable collapse from within, erupting into a massive nova.)

...Wh—what—... Hh, a-a portent...?!

HRK—!

(RayconvulsesinpaingritstheteethinhisfluctuatingskullglowswhitehotashisPresenceebbsentirelyintotheform—)

(Panos' beady little eyes are locked right onto this dude, uhhh)


Upstairs

(A window breaks and a furious, exasperated, Swedish-accented cry follows.)

JÄVLA RÅTTOR—...! GHHH...
