Two Makes Peace With Herself

As the last vestiges of rage left me, so did my strength. I held onto the door, but I could not force it down anymore, not without Caboose and Hercules's help. Even if I wanted to vault through, my arms simply could not support me anymore. "I'm sorry, Caboose, but... I don't think I'll be coming." I said regretfully, feeling my fingers beginning to loosen their grip.

"Make sure everyone's safe, okay?" I didn't want to die yet again. There was nothing fun in dying, especially dying alone and in pain. Alas, this seemed to be the fate the city and the malicious Thing Below had stored for me. "You and Hercules both. Make sure... no one else gets hurt. I'll... I'll see you soon."

I let go and slumped down without strength, only managing enough to rest my back against the closing door, sitting there with heavy, bated breaths. My arms were gone, and they hurt. It felt like I just had two giant stumps instead of limbs, just hanging by my sides limply, uselessly. I'd be able to stand up, but that wouldn't do much. At best it could give me a more dignified position to be in before I expire.

...still, denying the Thing Below its wicked pleasure felt gratifying, at the very least. And so, the last thing I could do is laugh, and shift around to sit on my knees, awaiting the sweet release.

"No, that's perfect! Everything is fine now" Rex quickly said, trying his best to hide the embarrassment of Silanea accidentally listening on his relationship problems. "Could you keep this between us? Please?"

"Anything," nodded Rick as he held up a pair of sparking wires and soldered them together. "There we go - EMP bomb." Rick hefted the thing up under his arm as he connected the last wire; the contraption began clicking like an out-of-control Geiger counter.

He looked around.

"So, uh, who here has a good throwing arm?" He looked at the intimidating shape of Brother Marcus, looming behind the group like a gigantic blue monolith. "Ben, y-y*urp*you got an alien that knows how t-to shotput?"

"Oh, like keeping your better pokemon in reserve rather than tiring them out on the first few pokemon your opponent sends out. I get it" Louie said, punching one fist into his other hand, then glanced over as Rick called out for attention. "I've got good practice from throwing tons of pokeballs. Is this thing pretty heavy?" the trainer suggested, walking over and inspecting the device.

"I have a strong arm" Darturien added in.

"I could fly in there and drop it while flying fast" Blue suggested as well.


Bunker lift

"I'm so sorry" Bergree said absentmindedly, standing there in front of the closing door and looking away.

"I'll do my best to keep them safe, I promise" Wells said towards Two, in absolute seriousness as he stood straight and made a salute. "Thank you for your sacrifice; if we meet again on a calmer day, I'll try to make it up to you" the lieutenant added, then put his hands back to his rifle, and turned to the rest of the group.

"That thing controlling the door can just open it again once it has hostile forces ready to pour through against us. We should move" Wells informed them all.

Silanea tilted her head a little. "You mean... Keep it secret? That was a metaphor, right?" Silanea asked for confirmation.

Tunnels — Female perspective

"Yes. This is a personal thing. Please, I don't want anyone else to know about it" Rex begged "It's embarrassing"

Rex reconsidered the situation. Silanea wasn't going to forget about this mess but she was probably the last person in the city that could judge anyone when it came down to love matters. Maybe this was a blessing in disguise after all.

"Buuut since you already know about this..." he glanced around everywhere but at Silanea's eyes in an effort to build up enough confidence to ask her a question "What do girls like? In terms of presents, I mean"

Ben perked up when Rick called for someone with a strong arm. He looked at the watch and smirked.

"I've got an alien with a strong arm," Ben told him. "I've got an alien with four strong arms! Just say the word and Four Arms is on the job! And once those robots are messed up it's time to break stuff!"

Lewis, "Tu stesso ti fai grosso col falso imaginar, sì che non vedi ciò che vedresti se l'avessi scosso"

The image was hard to miss, considering it took a third of the page for some damn reason. On top of being kinda gross, I didn't see what the random discolored hand was for. It was a thin thing, with a conspicuous wristband, and something about it was nagging me that felt very wrong. Maybe it was the background very clearly being that stupid pit, but the whole thing felt offputting in a way I couldn't place...

...only had to deal with that hunk of metal for a whole day...but why would...?

I combed over the rest of the page, more thorough than I'd been with the previous section, spurred by this sudden need to have an explanation for this thing despite the mounting sense of unease the image was exerting.

"Among the small but significant number of true encounters by the gang...like many entities of its caliber, it is drawn to troubled humans...evicted by Mystery for its efforts, but by then the damage was done..."

W...what?

It didn't add up. It couldn't. I knew what I'd seen better than some stupid book, no magic wall of text could fool me on a whim damnit. I would...know by now...I wasn't such a flake as to just assume...

I frantically scanned the other sections, in case I'd misunderstood, but the whole thing was consistent about this. Was this a cosmic troll move? None of these things had lied before, as far as anyone knew, I'd brought that up yesterday when Two was having her episode. Shit, that. I needed to not flip my shit. That wouldn't end well, would it? Maybe I was more tired than I thought. It'd be an impressive feat considering I was already feeling pretty terrible. The knife? Some kind of fumes from something around here? I didn't smell anything, but then CO was odorless. Yeah, I remembered my kitchen hazards, how could I not, that shit was as...ingrained...as...the gang was...

I set the book aside, rising mechanically to a standing position. "...Morty, I need to borrow the grenade launcher."

Eve looked at Cole again. If he didn't want help, could she force it on him? Did she have the right to do that to him? Was it her place? She didn't know what to do. "What do you want, Cole?" she replied, quietly, gently.

Yuna Yuki (Drama Cave) - Top Secret

"I... guess I'll come with you, then," Yuna decided as she continued to go with Rean, Eve and Cole. "I'm sure Makoto, Rex and Silanea are gonna be fine. They're smart, so I'm sure they'll figure something out, just like we will!"

Speaking of which, neither of the actual children seemed to be doing too well. Seirwuosuhr looked upset for some reason, and the mushroom boy Eve was holding didn't sound like he was okay, either. Nor did Eve, actually. Maybe they could use a bit of support.

So, of course, she finally let go of Gyuki with her other hand, and started patting the little girl's head while the cow faery flew around the group.

"Hey, hey, it's all gonna be fine," the red-haired girl assured her young companion with a smile. "Say, would you like to help me out with a little something?"

Drama tunnel the first, with Rex

"Well, if you want me to, alright... But, what about your promise? Do you want me to help you keep it, or were you just lying to Makoto?" Silanea asked, shelving away Rex's other question for now.


Off the rock bridge

Lil' Sunny looked at the book curiously when Lewis put it down, then she poked it with one of her 'hands'. With that, she looked up at Lewis and Morty and gave a couple of mildly confused chirps, trying to ask what they were going to do next.


Drama tunnel the second, with those others

When Yuna started patting Seirwuosuhr's head, a certain discovery might make its way through the aspiring hero's addled mind. Seirwuosuhr had two little, dull horn stubs on her head; they weren't visible, but Yuna could feel them. Seirwuosuhr cringed a little reflexively on being touched up there, but seemed to decide to let it go. "I just didn't like the loud noises and the yelling" Seirwuosuhr muttered, and glanced around the tunnel, "plus it's dark, and there's monsters out there..."

"Okay, well, the word is now." Rick connected the last wire, tapped it appraisingly with his knuckle, and took a celebratory swig. "When I flick this switch you have ten seconds to lob it in there." He jabbed his thumb at the portal.

Morty looked at the grenade launcher. "Um." he said. "I mean... uh, w-what are you going to do with it?" He unconsciously clenched it tighter in his hands, as though Lewis were going to rip it out of his grasp and turn him into teen puree.

Tunnels With Rex and Silanea- Semi-Lucid

Within a few minutes of fainting and being carried, Makoto was very briefly awake. She was still too tired to move much, but she could hear bits of a conversation. Before she could piece things together though, she nodded off again with a quiet groan.


She blinked, and she was suddenly in the driver's seat of a very familiar black and yellow van, heading down the twisting tracks that marked the paths of Mementos. The tunnels were dark, but Morgana’s headlights were enough to navigate without issue.

“You okay?” Makoto's grip tightened on the wheel as she jumped, accidentally hitting the gas a little too hard.

“Sorry! Sorry…” She slowed down as some of the group in the middle and back rows complained. “I just...zoned out for a moment,” she said, glancing at the teenager in the front passenger seat. Ren, as usual, was barely affected by the small mishap. He gave her a long look before he let it slide, however.

“If you say so. We have a few more requests to take care of today…” Ren said, adjusting his black coat.

“Yeah, like that screwed up store manager runnin’ his workers into the dirt!” Ryuuji said from behind her. ”And that crazy hitman guy! Hey Mona, we getting close yet?”

“I just told you ten minutes ago that the targets are further down, geez! Have some patience.” Morgana’s voice came in through the van’s radio.

”Uh, hey guys? There’s something up ahead!” Futaba called from the very back of the van.

“Hm?” Morgana’s headlights fell on multiple figures off in the distance, and as they drove closer, Makoto’s blood ran cold. Those weren’t Shadows… The van was empty now, except for her, and the engine cut off abruptly. “Mona…?” She got no response, as if the cat-like creature was frozen in time. The figures outside came closer, and then began pulling at the doors of the van.

“You try to kill all your friends when you’re mad?” A very warped version of Kelsey-as Hermione asked. She was holding her strange chainsaw weapon in one hand as she tried to get to Makoto. Another person banged on the window. Yael, blood all over the inside of his mask, stared at her.

“Should have killed me faster…” he hissed through his filter. His omnitool dragged across the glass, making a horrible scraping noise. Where Ren had been sitting moments before, Two was next to her now, though she was clearly unresponsive. A bullet hole marked the center of her friend’s forehead. Behind her was Rex, chest riddled with gunshot wounds. An elven woman, her face bloodied and dented to the point where Makoto felt sick to her stomach, stumbled into view from outside the van. Something wet dripped off her own hand, and she lifted it to see that her weapon was once again bloody.

Other voices echoed as the almost zombie like creatures converged on her stationary position.

“...chose that murderer over me…”

“...I love your choice in backup. Real impartial. Real grateful. Would love to have her watching my back…”

"I'm sorry to see that you couldn't handle the strain..."

"What the fuck is wrong with you? Actually fuck it, never mind. Just fuck you."

A few other past experiences echoed in Mementos, just as piercing as the ones before them. The van was being shaken violently now as shadowed figures shoved against it. Makoto was curled up in the front seat, close to the point of crying as the voices increased in volume. And then there was silence.


Makoto snapped awake and sat up...in her own bed. Her breathing slowed as she took in her surroundings. The packed bookshelves, the computer desk, the low table with the panda themed cushions. The stuffed Buchimaru-kun that she’d had for a few years stared at her from across the bed, and she hesitated before picking it up. It felt real enough. Was she...back?

“Makoto!” Sae called from the other side of her closed bedroom door. “Shouldn’t you be getting ready for school by now?”

“U-uh, I’ll be out in a minute!” she called back, still disoriented as she stood up. The clock nearby said that it was 6:30 AM. Was this actually real?

“Just don’t be late for the train, okay? I should be back this evening...” She could hear Sae open the front door as she left for work, and then the apartment was quiet once more.

“...What the hell is going on?” Makoto said, before someone touched her shoulder.

”My apologies for taking so long to reach you.” Makoto pulled away with a yelp and turned to find… herself. A perfect twin except for the harsh yellow eyes. The copy waited patiently as she calmed down again.

“Oh! Oh… It’s you.”

“Well, I’m pleased that you recognized me. We’ll be here for a while, or at least until someone bothers to get you medical help,” Anat said to her, looking annoyed as she sat at the table. “Or until we get something to eat that won’t be burned off a few minutes afterward...” She sighed. Makoto, having nothing better to do, went to sit across from her.

"What a great first dream to have in an alternate dimensional city..." Makoto said under her breath, clutching her stuffed animal.

Tunnels — From a certain point of view

"I wasn't lying!" Rex clarified "It's just that..." he dreaded what he was about to say but maybe verbalizing his feelings would make them clearer "I don't know if I can actually keep my word. I said I was going to—and I'm definitely gonna try—but you know me, I can't seem to keep my mouth shut for five minutes. And all the people in the city that tolerate me are right here" he said, lifting Makoto a bit and looking back at Silanea.

"I don't want to lose her just yet. Is that too selfish?"

Maybe it was lying after all.

Lewis, bridge of unpleasant realizations

Hey, didn't I get suspicious of this kid over something stupid or another? Wasn't that dumb in hindsight. I didn't give much heed to the chirping beneath me, not really fully registering it. "It's simple. If we blow a hole in the ceiling, maybe we'll hit air and can climb out of this deathtrap. No one's proved there isn't an above ground, and the air here's probably bad, so it's worth a shot." I reached for the launcher. "I can trust you to do me a solid, can't I? Give it here." Yes, that had to be it. We just needed to get out of here, and fast. That was what it was, wasn't it, it's not like I'm delusional or anything.

"I think the flying man doing it would be our best option for the moment" Valentina commented.

"If it really matters to you, then you'll just have to try harder. I will try to help" Silanea said simply, glancing at Makoto. "Now, you wanted to know about what girls like? Um, I don't really know what human girls like" the lamia pointed out, bringing back that topic.

With a bright flash of green light, Ben transformed into Four Arms, jumping into position and reaching one of his four hands backwards towards Rick.

"Now pass it to me and I'll lob it in! Then we go in and clean house!" he said, looking primed for action. As soon as Rick would hand it over, he would toss the primed EMP bomb into the opening.

Bunker Lift

Caboose stared at the closed door. He stared at it for a good long while, processing exactly what had just happened. "Is... Is she gone?" he asked, his voice sounding unsteady and kind of upset.

"Affirmative, Captain Caboose. No heat signature detected," Freckles informed the soldier, relaying the sudden lack of heat caused by Two's crushed corpse vanishing.

"Oh..." the moron said quietly. That wasn't right... Why did she keep doing this? It was always someone else getting themselves hurt to help him, never the other way around, and he was beginning to hate it!

A more natural anger bubbled up inside of Caboose as he stepped back towards the door and just started punching it. They were made of sturdy metal and he was still exhausted from his efforts to open it earlier so he probably didn't do much, but that wasn't the point. He was angry without anything he could take it out on in front of him, so this was simple venting.

After pounding at the door for a few seconds, Caboose turned around and faced the group of militiamen and civilians. "Let's go, then!" he exclaimed, sounding a lot more like his normal dopey self. A bit of venting did wonders for him to bounce back effortlessly from his distress. He'd find Two again, and Yuna, and everyone else!

"Freckles, tell me if you see any heat thingies that look like Two or Yuna!" he commanded his gun.

"Affirmative, Captain."

Two Returns To Life In A Drama Tunnel

I didn't actually experience being crushed by the mechanism. Before that came to be, I decided to turn my blade on myself and spare myself the excruciating pain. Naturally, with my arms being rendered useless, I couldn't simply cut my head off, so there was a lot of trial-and-error involved.

Perhaps simply being crushed would hurt less in the long run. That didn't matter anymore. I was back in the caves, good as new. Or was I? The inklings of the sensation were still haunting me and I found myself collapsing on my knees, struggling to breathe and feeling the abominable convulsions rocking my body. No vomit came out, but I was still floored, on my arms and knees, trying to gather my bearings. Cold sweat grew all over me and, against my better judgment, I crawled forward.

Before I collapsed in a soaked, hyperventilating heap, my eyes managed to see a few familiar faces. Rex, Silanea. Makoto? She was unconscious? What happened? Were they okay? Did something ambush them? My mind could process things clearly as I fell and then rolled on my back, trying and failing to calm myself. I tried to call to them, but only a garbled groan came out.

"I mean... uh, alright?" Morty shrugged and relinquished his grip on the grenade launcher - it seemed easier than trying to have to negotiate with an increasingly unstable looking-and-sounding person.

"Just, uh, just let me get out of the blast radius first." He ducked behind a nearby stalactite. "And, uh, you sure you're not going cause a cave-in or... a, landslide, or something by doing this?"

"But I'm fine" Blue protested idly, stepping back as Ben transformed.

Valentina let out a sigh. "So be it then, we'll follow in" Valentina muttered, raising her staff and casting her defensive orb around herself. "Cleric, blessing on our ranger" the sorceress instructed Darturien.

"Right" Darturien answered simply with a nod, then raised his two handed mace and did a short chant, and a yellow aura appeared around himself and Amelia.

The bomb went in, and they waited a short bit. "Alright, now?" Blue asked simply after counting the seconds.

If they went through the portal, they'd find themselves in a large, open factory floor type of area, with conveyor belts and machines strewn about that were, up until a few moments ago, chugging along for unclear purposes. (Probably making more robots to fuel AM's army.) There was also a bunch of T-800s and geth units using those machines and conveyor belts as cover who were, likewise, no longer functioning; the geth units however weren't going to stay down for long.

The only combatant in there still up was a humanoid figure in white colored armor, who was taking cover behind a large machine a decent distance away from the portal, straight forward out of it. He would immediately begin firing on the first person to come through the portal.

Deep Facility— Hard to Get Something Out of a Guy Who's Barely Conscious

Riley blinked in surprise when Four Arms suddenly started yelling, pulling himself out of a trance. Right, they were about to get into a fight. He didn't need to even ask Lucario if he was ready to fight yet.

Weakly, Riley stood up and pretty much collapsed against the nearby wall. "Metagross... use Bullet Punch against whatever attacks you in there," he ordered, pointing at the portal.

Metagross took the vague order in stride, walking through the portal and shifting on its side to start rolling towards the robot as soon as it started shooting.
