"You can't kill him..." Cole said softly. "We can't die here. Not forever. I've...I've died three times in as many days. Whatever you do, it won't stop him..."

The library

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw, shit, dog!" Rick had leapt back up onto a nearby shelf, where he was watching the confrontation between Dante and Cole with a kind of gleeful interest. "You just got *urp* served!" he shouted down to Dante.

"Wait, what?" Morty's ears perked up when he heard the phrase "dog".

"Not you, Morty." Rick grabbed his flask and unscrewed it with his teeth, lapping up some more alcohol as he watched.

So the city they're in is aptly named 'The City' and it changes according to the themes of each day? ... Not the kind of answer I was expecting, but better than nothing I suppose. "I see..." I spoke, voicing out my slight discontentment.

It was then that I head talks about demons and the likes. I was intrigued, but quite frankly would not like to meet them anytime soon. Just handling one alone in my life is enough for me. No need to deal with more of his kind, if I can help it.

There are also talks about what makes a hero, but I could honestly care less about that sort of conversation. So for now, I merely observe, noting everything that is currently being said...

Outside the Library

Nightwitch frowned as Cole wiggled. Then she nodded in response to his point about the demon.

"People here don't go. Not permanently. And people who meet that-magic-evil demon?-thing feel wrong. Smell wrong."

She then loosened her grip on Cole briefly, before setting him on the brim of her hat.

The library — You say demon, I say daemon

Dante looked at how Cole and Rex tried to talk him out of going alone against Old Feather Beak and started laughing. This guy's ego was off the charts.

The demon-slayer finally conceded them a point and let them explain why this demon was so special. Cole wasted no time poiting out that he was efectively immortal.

"Yeah, I don't know if this is something you usually deal with but the guy can possess people and has his own personal army: The Ruckus. They have their own symbol and everything"

Rex pointed at Tairee's desk. "If you want to keep that attitude of yours, tell the librarian that you want a magic rock. They keep the demon away from your head"

Rex started going back to where Tairee was but stopped midway through to confirm he was on board of kicking the demon's ass.

"And don't think you are going alone, I need to blow off some steam after losing my legs and we need all the help we can get"

Cole squirmed when he was set up on the hat, looking as though he were measuring the height to the ground. "I want onto the ground. I will hurt myself jumping from this height but I want down. I have to go look for Mary. I said I would!"

The library: ...

Dante stared at Cole, his metal visage betraying no emotion. He made no move to look over at the jeering Rick off to his right, nor the cowering Morty or the assenting Nightwitch down below. A slight tilting of helmet hinted at where Dante was looking: the ground. The pauldrons that were his shoulders now began to twitch, and a rattling sound emanated from the demon hunter's chestplate. That rattling began to grow, becoming more and more distinct, turning into a sound that those in the room already knew well enough.

Dante was chuckling.

"You think that's gonna stop me, kid?" he asked, leveling his gaze at the be-hatted bunny once more. "You ain't givin' me enough credit. If I can't die, then I'll just keep comin' back to kick this demon's teeth in again and again, as many times as it takes, 'til I figure out how to keep him down for good. You got that? 'Sides, I've got a rep to keep up. I'm not about to let some immortal demon delegitimize my title as demon hunter."

There was a long pause as a serious mood temporarily settled on the cocky demon hunter...which was immediately dispelled when he threw his hands up in another dismissive gesture. "But alright! Since you guys're so worried, I guess I'll stick around here for a little while longer. Maybe, I dunno, draw up a plan or somethin' instead of chargin' in sword-first like I usually do. If it'll make you feel better."

He then nodded at Rex. "Sure, magic rocks sound good. Never had to deal with demons in my head before, but I'm sure I can manage, and an army? Heh. I can handle an army." He chuckled. "And I'm glad you're on-board, kid. I wouldn't have it any other way."

Be kind.

Pastry shop

Kelsey waddled over and sat next to Mary on her hind legs, looking at the shelf as well. One can only keep a Khorne worshiper to hold still for so long though, and after a little bit she started fidgeting. "Um... What are we waiting for?" Kelsey asked, glancing down at Mary.


Inside the library

"You're welcome" Miss Tairee muttered in response to Zelda as she wandered back over to her desk, spitting out Negi's thermos near him. After Dante called out to her, she glanced over at him. "You can't. No such book ex-... Actually wait, I think there is such a book" she said, and started slowly typing on her computer.

After Rex's question and then telling her not to answer yet, she rolled her eyes and kept typing. Right after Rick's outburst, a book flew down from the top floor and over towards Dante. "Good luck with that" Miss Tairee told him and then returned to her typing as the book stopped in mid air in front of the demon slayer. It was a small book, plain and brown; the title was in elvish, but thanks to the nature of the city Dante could read it just fine anyway, as "work diary #5183".

The text inside though, was a much different story. It wasn't two dimensional like this text, or three dimensional like Dante himself; it was ten dimensional, and unlike other text, the city was not translating it for him. Suffice to say it was eldritch beyond any description could sufficiently give justice to, and just looking at it would give Dante a headache. Nobody in the city could possibly read it, except for Miss Tairee.

Meanwhile, Lieutenant Wells looked down at Aigis. "Your desire to act before risking people getting hurt is commendable, but this man was innocent. Furthermore if he was not skilled enough to block your shots you likely would have killed him; this is not an acceptable risk if we are to become accepted as defenders of the populous. We confirm threats first, and then you can attack with overwhelming firepower" Lieutenant Wells said to the robot. "Now, on your feet; it sounds like there may be engagements happening soon, and we would be poor protectors of the citizens if we were to remain here while that occurs" he ordered her, and watched to see where the conversation between Dante and Rex was going.

Library - no wonder cats are lazy

After Zelda was gone to deal with Sadness, Sans spend precious minutes trying in vain to use a cellphone from the bag with his paws and it got to the point where he decided to just stop and try again later. He figured Caro wouldn't even be able to pick up the phone properly anyway so all in all it was just a waste of time to try.

He then looked at the stuff that was happening around him, it looked like Cole was busy dealing with one new guy who was now some kind of suit of armor, either way it was probably better to not get involved in that mess. Instead, he simply pushed the two bags Zelda brought into a corner and went to join the wolf girl and the sad fish.

"it's probably gonna take a lot more effort to call caro than i'm willing to make. plus i dunno if she'd even be able to pick up her phone anyway," he told them as he walked over, then looking at Sadness "guess you're gonna be stranded there all day, carrying you around would be kinda hard when most of us can't even hold a phone properly and coming into contact with you is just bad all around, looks like the boss really wanted you out of the picture for today."

Kowloon Walled City Apartments - Painful Interruption

Caro suddenly heard a crash coming from her group's room. She went back in as fast as she could currently manage on four legs. She quickly noticed the source of the noise: Karkat had fallen from bed and ended up laying on his bed, desperately trying to right himself up.

" Karkat! Are you OK? I'm afraid I can't help you to get up all that much, without hands or even fingers but ... " She turned to face Fried and asked, " Fried, could you give us a hand over here? "

Fried walked up to them, so that he was standing over Karkat. He then attempted to pick him up. If Karkat allowed it, he would then carefully flip him over and then hold him over the floor until he could support himself on his eight legs.

Outside the Library

Having stopped crying enough for rational thought, Shiara walked slowly back to the group outside the library.

Hi guys.

There was Dante, a robot she recognised as Rex, a rabbit with a very iconic hat (Cole?), sitting atop the brim of a nine-year old girl that seemed rather familiar.

What's going on?Have any of you seen Nightwitch?

At the sound of her name, Nightwitch perked, and ran towards Shiara at speed.

"Mine!"

She then bent to pick Shiara up (a move which Shiara neatly dodged), giving Cole a chance to jump off the hat.

Cole wasn't one to miss his spot. As soon as the ground was within a range that felt safe, he bounded off and onto the ground, running off a short distance to maintain a good headstart should the cat-turned-girl turned her attention to him again. "I am going looking..." he said softly. "To see what I can find, what I can do. I can sense where they are, and I will figure out how to fight."

Karkat - Apartments - Hooray for Friendship, or Should I Say...FRIE Dship?

Karkat felt Fried pick his weird body up, turn it over (which was somewhat nauseating) and put him over the floor. He touched the ground, and thankfully he managed to stay right side up. THANKS. NOW WHAT TH ERR FUCK ARE WE STANDING HERE FOR? LET'S GET MOVING! And with that, he clumsily scuttled out of the room.

The library: Reading? Screw that, man.

Oh, hey, how about that! She was the librarian, after all, and she'd given Dante a book. Not exactly the reaction he was expecting, honestly; he expected vehement refusal or terrified dismissal of his request due to some scary overseer who would put her down if she stepped out of line. But neither of those things happened; she just gave him the book he was looking for, which happened to be some weird diary written in a script he both knew how to read and didn't recognize at all at the same time. Dante watched as the diary opened up and —

"The...hell?" Dante found himself staring at the eldritch text for a few seconds, transfixed, his demon blood staving off the impending headache for just long enough for the young demon hunter to realize he probably shouldn't be looking at this. He pushed it down out of his vision, shaking his head. "Right. Forgot. I hate reading," he grumbled, rubbing his helmet with his right "hand." "Eh, thanks for that, bookworm. Don't s'pose you could give me a summary, huh?" He paused as he remembered something. "Oh, yeah. Got any of them demon rocks spare? I'd rather not get my head examined by a hellbeast."

And then Colerabbit started to make his way out again. "Hooold on, kid. Are you really gonna go out there by yourself? If you guys think I can't handle them lookin' like this, then what're you gonna do? But," Dante acceded, shrugging his shoulders, "it's not my life to live, I guess. If you figure out how to kill these things, don't leave me in the dark, alright? I'm itchin' to kick some demon tail."

Be kind.

Mary (Pastry Shop) - Nothing Happened

"Hmmm..." Mary's pondered, her voice sounding somewhat concerned even though she still looked like she was grinning. "I don't get it... I did it just fine just a bit ago... maybe I need to practice it some more...?" She then turned her head towards her big sister, and added, "Sorry, big sis. I guess I'll show it to you once I can do it better."

Aigis-Library

Aigis rose to her paws, nodding in understanding. "Understood. I will change my tactics accordingly Rest assured, this will not happen again."

Then she saw Cole unwisely attempting to go running off again. She quickly dashed forward, running in front of the small bunny-cole.

"Cole-San." She said sternly. " I must object. Do you not remember what happened the last time you were alone? I will not allow you to put yourself in danger like that again. You will wait for the rest of our friends to finish preparing, they should not take much longer." From Aigis's tone, not unlike that of a lecturing parent, it was clear this was not up for negotiation.

The Library — Preparation is key

A weird fox entered the building which made Nightwitch run to hug her. Cole, who was still on her hat took the opportunity to flee and mentioned trying to find a way to kill the demon.

He was stopped by Dante and Aigis, both pointing out that it was suicidal. The latter especially mentioned that last time he had gone up against the Ruckus the results weren't pretty.

"Yeah, Aigis is right. Just give me a sec to ge ready"

Rex rolled closer to Tairee and signaled her to continue their conversation

"You can answer now"

Seeing Viola discontent, Negi quickly grabbed onto a silver lining about their situation. "Please do not worry too much, Miss. At the very least, no one can truly die in the City during our tenure here so that is a boon to counteract the negative points. Still, it would behoove you to be careful here even with this addendum, since there are some things that are worse than dying." On that cheery note given by the clueless boy who went through such things, the ermine than swiveled his head to see a saliva covered thermos being spat out nearby. "Oh dear. Thank you for returning my thermos, Miss Librarian. Ras tel Ma Scir Magister... Vente." A small localized wind gust whistled about before sweeping the saliva off the waterproof container's surface, leaving behind a much drier thermos that was then thrown through the air to be caught by his Familiar in the distance.

Hearing about the others going on about saving a girl from a demon, the boy then turned back to regard the fearsome looking alien creature with big round eyes full of DETERMINATION. "Miss Librarian, might I have two of these demonic mental influence inhibiting stones as well? It behooves me to try to investigate a situation such as this, such as it were. Demons, though not all of such could be considered 'evil', are still rather fearsome beings when put in an antagonistic role. I fear much for what would happen should this girl fall to his whispered temptations." The boy was speaking from experience, and for just the briefest of moments his voice had turned harder than diamond. Inside his mind, dark emotions roiled about as he thought of his past... thoughts that were much darker than a boy his age had any right to be.

Cole drew up slightly at Aigis's interruption, lowering his head a bit to the ground, ears laying back somewhat again. "...I'm not any safer with the group than without..." he finally said, one paw patting at the ground, a new version of his usual nervous tics. "The demon can see into me, he can sense me, he can find me anywhere and any time he wants. If I go with all of you, they will know. I have to go alone. To draw their attention away."

That's dumb. How do you expect to fight against them?

It really was stupid. From what she had read, and what she had heard, this guy had an army, and Cole was a rabbit right now.

Nightwitch attempted to pick Shiara up again, before realising that she was tired, curling up on a couch, and falling asleep.

Ben perked up when people started to leave to search for and fight the Ruckus. "Hey, wait up!" Ben exclaimed, leaping from the chair he was sitting on and waddling towards the door as fast as his little lizard legs could carry him (which isn't very fast).

"Wait for me! Ugh, stupid city and its stupid lizard transformation! What am I supposed to do now?!" he asked incredulously. "Uh, can someone give me a lift??"

Lune just nodded and handed her phone to Fried. Hopefully, he'll keep it safe until the day is over, right?

Just as the group was ready to leave, Karkat fell onto his back. If it weren't for Fried being human, Karkat would have painfully starved to death. Thank goodness, Fried has a kind heart. Lune followed Karkat down the stairs. Given that Lune was now a tiny otter, this was going to take a long time.

As soon the group reached the usual disgusting first floor hallway, Lune took the time to observe the people in the factories and facilities. Although they're handicapped by the fact they're now animals, they weren't going to let that stop their daily routine. There was one chicken making the dough for spring rolls with her wing. It just took much longer since she had no hands. As she passed another room, Lune noticed a group of pigeons arguing and gambling on a group of people running around a track. Guess the humans became the pigeons, and the racing pigeons became the humans.

Miss Tairee paused her typing and looked at Rex. "Oh thank you so much for giving me permission to speak inside my own library" Miss Tairee said to him sarcastically. "Mary is a doll; Kelsey is some small, furred creature from earth called a honey badger. That's the best I can give you" she added, and looked away from him to Dante and Negi.

"That book is notes on how to use universal script to get from one universe to another. Of course, it's written in universal script" Miss Tairee stated to answer Dante's request for a summary on the book. "And there's more wraithbone amulets in that box over there" she told them, pointing with one of her upper limbs to the box on one of the tables.

Ben's eye turned towards Miss Tairee as she curtly answered Dante's question. Since he was not present during her blow-up at Sans and Sawyer, he was understandably baffled. "Wait, what's going on? Why's Miss Tairee so mad?" he asked the others. Then he began to crawl back towards the desk, clambering up on top of it. He looked at the book that Dante had been handed. Oh no, not this stuff again.

He had tried to read it all the way back on Day 1 as Grey Matter, fat load of good it did since even his smartest alien couldn't make heads or tails of the stuff. Perhaps his chameleon eyes could hold off the pain and confusion. He began to try and read the document himself. Nope. Still pain and confusion.

When he shook his head to get his bearings again, he looked at Miss Tairee with one eye. "And what is that Universal Script stuff anyway? The language of the cosmos or something? And how can you read it if you're a human?"

He took another look at Miss Tairee's new vaguely-insectoid form, going silent for a moment. "Were a human."

Kowloon Walled City Apartments -> Library

Thankfully, Karkat managed to stand up right after Fried turned him over. As they left the room, Lune handed her phone to Fried, who took it and place it in his pocket along with Caro's.

The group being their slow descent to the ground floor. Caro found it hard at first to manage move through stairs on four legs and Karkat likely would have it even, what with having to manage it with eight legs. Fried stay close to him, ready to help if he ended stumbling. If he did end up falling, he would offer to carry him down the stairs.

After getting out of the building, they then headed towards the library. This time the city's shifting worked to their advantage. The apartment building was now thankfully close to the library, so even with their laborious pace, they managed to reach it pretty quickly.

After entering, Caro began to look carefully. With the day's peculiar conditions, it would be pretty hard to identify her friends. But then she spotted something. Was that a ... skeletal cat? Well, unless there was a new arrival that happened to be a skeleton as well, there was only one person who that could be.

Caro and Fried walked over to said and the group assemblec around him. Caro then softly spoke to him, " Um ... Excuse me? Sans, is that you? It's me, Caro."
