Link to the last part: A Weirder Route pt 5
"You have a school project to do? Okay, that's it! As prince, I demand you two go work on your school project!" Ralsei said.
"Okay, fine." Susie rolled her eyes. "Come on, Echo."
"I will also accompany you! With the power of friendship, we will prevail!" Lancer said.
*Lancer was added to your ITEMS!
"And I shall joineth you as well!" Rouxls said.
"Um, we're good, thanks..." Susie said. "You really don't have to..."
"NONSENSE! The Great Rouxls Kaard shall accompanyeth you!'
*Rouxls Kaard was added to your items... even though nobody wanted that...
In the Light World...
The library was empty. Susie looked around, confused, then turned back to Echo.
"Hey, where is everyone?" Susie said. She looked at the door to the lab. "You don't think... Dark World?"
"Dark World." Echo nodded.
Susie opened the door. Darkness seeped out of the doorway, filling the room with cold air.
"Definitely dark fountain. So... we gotta seal it, right? Well... it's more interesting than studying, I guess." Susie said. "Let's go, Echo!"
Susie and Echo leapt through the doorway and fell together down into the dark.
They landed in a cyberpunk-looking green place, with faint techno music humming in the distance.
"Well this is new..." Susie said.
The duo kept walking, past several Plugboys who were all trembling in fear. Echo knelt down and checked to see if they were okay.
"She... the others... they...." the plugboy mumbled.
Echo stood up. "They're okay... we should keep going, though."
They rounded a corner and saw Noelle, who was wearing a white robe, sitting there on the ground, visibly distressed, and Kris was kneeling next to her, trying to comfort her. Susie ran towards her.
"S- Susie?" Noelle looked up.
"Noelle!" Susie said. "Ugh, this is going to be hard to explain...."
Suddenly, a UFO-looking cage came over and lowered down bars around Noelle, trapping her. Another one did the same for Kris. Noelle yelped in fear, while Kris rattled the bars of their cage in anger.
"She- she found me! You two, get out of here, before she-" Noelle tried to say, but was cut off, as the UFO cage picked her up and levitated her away.
"Wha- hey!" Susie said. "Get back here! Echo, what are you doing standing there? Shouldn't we be going after her?"
Suddenly, they both heard a laugh. Susie raised her axe and Echo laid a hand on the hilt of their daggers in preparation.
"Ohhhohohohoo! Lightners And Possible Future Peons! Welcome... To My City!!"
