"Where's Rick?" Tammy asked.
"He's still getting ready," Chris replied.
“How'd you guys sleep?" Chris asked as he looked around.
"Not too well..." Sena replied as Abbey let out a yawn.
They then heard the creaking of the porch steps.
“What the hell took you so long?" Chris asked.
"Sorry, sorry," Rick said, scratching his head.
"Maru," Tammy began.
"How are you?"
Maru, who was half asleep, rubbed her eyes.
"I'm really sleepy..."
Tammy giggled.

As they began walking toward the dojo, Abbey momentarily stopped.
"So, what's the game plan, leader?" Abbey asked.

"Are we ready?" Rick questioned, surveying the room. There were several nods. "Great," he paused. "Now, here's the strategy," he began, using a pointer on a projector. "We're going to split up." Whispers were going around. "Don't you think that's dangerous?" Abbey asked. Rick shook his head. "I think it'll get us to our goal quicker." He said. He pointed to the projector. "Keren, Abbey, Sena, and Tammy, you guys will go towards the Eastern wing." "Mikael, Iris Azalea, and I will head toward the Northern wing." He then looked at Norio and Chris.

Chris asked. "Mm," Maru replied. "Good." He smiled. "Why don't you take that thing off for now?" He said as he knelt to take off the blindfold. "Hey, Chris!" A voice called out from behind the door. Chris froze. "Rick...?" Chris whispered, standing up. "What happened to splitting up?" He asked. "Nothing, I changed my mind; I want to take Maru with me." Chris narrowed his eyes. "Open the door, would you?" The voice asked. "...Pr

He said, kneeling.Chris slightly twitched."Listen," Norio huffed."If you care about them, if you truly love my brother, you'll get the hell up and continue fighting!" Norio cried.He then pulled out a tiny bottle labeled 'The Cure.'"Looks like you'll need a bit more than Emersyn did..." He sighed, pouring a little into Chris’s mouth.He narrowed his eye."Swallow." He scolded.Suddenly, Chris started coughing."Damnit, that stuff tastes awful."
