------------------------------(Last time...)--------------------------------------------
'Junpei, Clover, and Lotus leapt out of the laboratory, slamming the
door shut behind them. All 3 collapsed against the wall, breathing
heavily. Junpei's heart was pounding in his chest, and his whole body
felt weak. He inhaled gulps of clear air, and with each one, he could
feel his body begin to calm down.'
Junpei: All right, let's go.
---(And now, we continue.)---
'They nodded to each over, and started off down the hallway. Before long, they found a few new doors, but all of them were locked.'
(Well, that's of no use to us.)
'Soon, they had tried all of the doors but one. The final door sat in a corner of the hallway. Junpei grabbed the door handle, and was about to pull it open, when-- A voice cried out behind him. It was neither Clover, nor Lotus, but he recognized it...'
June? (Seven?) (I'm not playing this silly little guessing game.)
'There was no doubt, the voice belonged to--'
June: Jumpy!
Ah ha! I win! (I may be a demon, but I don't know everything.)
'He spun around. There, at the other end of the hall, Junpei saw human figures running toward him. 3 of them. June, Santa, and Seven. They stopped short in front of Junpei and his companions, gasping for air.'
Santa: Hey! What're you guys doing here?!
Junpei: What...? But...we didn't...
'Before he could finish, Clover spoke.'
Clover: Um, guys, could you come over here?
'She was standing near the end of a small hallway that branched off to the right. The rest of them ran over to her, curious as to what she'd found.'
A partridge in a pear tree? (That...was more random than usual.)
'There was something on the wall at the end of the hallway...'
Junpei: A map of the ship's interior...
(Again?) Yes, "again"...
'It said [C Deck] in the upper left corner. Most likely, they assumed, it was a map for the floor they were on. Door [7] and... Door [8]... The map confirmed what they already knew: Both doors eventually led to the hallway where they had found themselves. In fact...'
Seven: Yeah, isn't that what I said? 'Till we find that [9] door, Zero ain't gonna split us up.
(Well, for long anyway.)
Seven: We might get separated for a little while, but we'll see each other again. Otherwise, we can't open door [9]. That's how the Nonary Game works.
'Junpei looked at the map of the ship's interior again. As he looked more closely, his surprise and excitement gave way to weariness. One by one, the others saw what he'd seen. As one, they all moved back toward the door Junpei had only a moment ago been ready to open. He pulled the [map of the ship's interior] off the wall, put it in his pocket, and followed the others.'
([sarcasm] Okay, so we've got another map. I'm so excited. [/sarcasm])
'The 6 of them stood in front of the door, arrayed in a semi-circle. Santa stepped forward. He took hold of the door and spoke, without looking back at the other 5.'
Santa: Ready...? I'm gonna open it.
'They nodded their silent assent. With a deep breath, Santa threw open the door. They poured through the doorway, and into the room. Even without looking around, each one of them knew where they were.'
Welcome, welcome everybody back to... (The hospital room. [sarcasm] Great, we get to be around Daemon again... [/sarcasm])
'They were just where the map had said they would be... The same room they'd been in not so very long ago... The tremendous central hospital room, with empty beds from wall to wall.'
*facepalm*
'...'
(Why did I have to be right.)
'...'
Ace: I see.
Hey, Ace and I woke up while you were gone. What did you find? (Dude! I know you have horrible things planned for Shimohi...)
Ace: I believe I understand what you're saying...
And what is this plan, I ask? (Obviously you know what your own plan is. It's to kill Shimohi and make the Pansy and I join your harem. Obviously, that won't work. Because if Shimohi really dies, then we die as well.)
Ace: The 6 of you split into 2 teams, and went through doors [7] and [8]. You solved the puzzles in the [operating room] and the [laboratory] and then met one another in the hallway after opening your respective locked doors.
'He looked like anyone might, after only just waking up, but it seemed that his brain was working as well as ever.'
I didn't have anything to do, except maybe talk at him. So Ace and I
pretty much lazed about waiting for you guys to come back. Besides, why
would I plot to kill Shimohi? I had just met the three of you just
recently. ([sarcasm] Right... [/sarcasm] *lightbulb* I wonder if your sweat would taste sweet...) (What!?) Akurei, I know you don't have Bruno Buccellati's Ho Yay lie detecting ability. (Oh really?) Yeah really. (No way! But seriously, why did I join in on a version of that stupid meme done with proper grammar? And did you seriously have to mention Jojo's Bizzare Adventure again?) What do you think? (Of course...)
'He had managed to grasp, summarize, and understand each team's report.'
Ace: At any rate... I feel a bit silly for my little show of altruism. "I'm sure you'll be back for me."
We were still right, after all. (Yeah, that's because you saw what happened last time like we did.)
Ace: I did hope you would come back, but I confess I didn't think you'd be back so soon.
'Ace shook his head with a rueful smile.'
Seven: Well, we saw each other again, and we ain't dead, so I say that's good enough.
'Seven smiled.'
Yay!
Seven: Anyway, I say we get outta this creepy old place. We found the key we need.
Junpei: The key?
Seven: Ain't that what I just said? I'm talking about the [Jupiter key]. We found it in the operating room.
Oh yeah, we did find a key like that in the first playthrough...
Seven: Here.
'Seven tossed something small and metallic toward Junpei. He caught it, and found that the object was a key. On it, someone had engraved a symbol very similar to a (4).'
That's the astrological symbol for Jupiter. No need to show off or anything like that.
'He looked over at June, who nodded back. It had to be the Jupiter symbol.'
Yay! I was right! What did I just say, nerd! Is it just me or did you intend for the word "nerd" to sound like an insult?
Seven: I'm gonna let you hold onto that, all right?
Junpei: Yeah, got it.
'Junpei tucked the new key into his pocket. As a group, they now had 3 keys that had not been used: * The [Earth key], which had been found in the laboratory. * The [Saturn key card], which had been found in the kitchen. * The [Jupiter key], which Seven had just handed to Junpei. Junpei tucked the new keys into his pocket. June spoke up.'
June: The [Jupiter key] is supposed to be for the door at the end of that long, straight hallway, right?
Seven: Yeah. If the map's right, then it connects to the central staircase. Then next tot he stairs--
Are the elevators. (And once we reach there, that strange voice will be back again...) What "strange voice"? (Dude, we're not talking to you!)
Clover: Wait.
'They were the first words anyone had heard out of Clover in quite some time. Her face suggested they weren't going to be very happy words.'
Clover: What about door [3]?
Seven: Look... You saw the map, right? It's the same as [7] and [8]. It'd just lead us back to the big hospital room. There's no point to seeing what's on the other side of that door.
(Besides, we already know what's on the other side of door three. The shower room and a dead body.) (Monster!) Exactly!? Why's a young lady like yourself talking about dead bodies without any hint of disgust? (For one thing; I'm a demon, not a lady. Second of all, I freely admit that my awesome...) And awful smelling. (...nacho dip is pretty much blood and chunks of "long pork" if you catch my drift.) ..."Monster" is a pretty fitting nickname after all. (I know, right!?)
Clover: There is a point. At least there is for me...
'There were tears in her eyes, but she glared at Seven as hard as she could, just the same. She looked very much like a frightened puppy. There wasn't a man alive who could have resisted those eyes.'
(I can, but then again, I'm neither human or male.)
'Seven looked everywhere in the room except at Clover, and muttered and coughed apologies under his breath.'
Seven: Yeah, you're right, I'm sorry... Snake might be on the other side of door [3]...
'Clover nodded once. The next person to speak was Ace.'
Ace: Very well. I'll be coming with you, then. I've had a nice, long rest. I think it's time I was up and about again. So, Seven... You'll help me, won't you?
Seven: Huh...? Me?
'Junpei did the calculations, quickly, in his head.'
...! (Might as well let Junpei do it this time.)
'4 + 1 + 7 = 12 [insert arrow here] 1 + 2 = 3'
'It looked like Seven was doing them too. At last, he gave up.'
Seven: Damn. Well, I guess that's how it's gotta be... So I'm goin' with you, huh?
Ace: Yes, you are.
Seven: All right, let's get moving...
'And so it was decided that Clover, Ace, and Seven would discover what lay beyond door [3].'
Seven: Okay, we're headin' out.
Lotus: Be careful.
Take care.
Seven: Whoa. Didn't think I'd be hearin' that from you, Lotus.
Lotus: Don't let it go to your head. I'd be in trouble if the 3 of you bought it. The rest of us can't open the [9] door.
Seven: Aaaah. The truth comes out.
'Seven nodded, as if this answer made much more sense, and pulled the lever on the RED.'
Well, it does make sense...
Ace: Okay! Let's go!
'The door opened, and Ace, Clover, and Seven jumped through it. 6... 7... 8... After exactly 9 seconds, the door closed noisily.'
Lotus: All right. We should get moving too.
Junpei: Huh?
June: Get moving?
Santa: Where are we going?
'Everyone except Lotus seemed rather confused.'
(Of course, even the narrator doesn't really acknowledge our existence.)
Lotus: Well, it would be a waste of time to just sit around, wouldn't it? Let me explain...
'...'
(*yawn*)
'...'
And with that bit of glossed over exposition over...
June: I get it. We're gonna see if we can get anywhere interesting with the [Jupiter key].
Lotus: Yes. If we're lucky, we might find Snake.
(Not this time.) (Huh? What do you... Oh, right, the dead body...)
'They were at the end of the hallway lined by individual hospital rooms. The Jupiter symbol was engraved on the keyhole.'
Lotus: All right, Junpei. Open it, if you please.
Junpei: Yeah, on it.
'Junpei pulled the [Jupiter key] out of his pocket and slid it into the keyhole. He twisted. With a nice, sharp click, he felt the door unlock.'
Junpei: All right. Ready, guys?
'Junpei's companions nodded. He nodded back, then slowly and quietly opened the door. Inside was exactly what he expected to see, from the map of the ship's interior. They were in a tremendous hall, almost like a ballroom, with a massive central staircase.'
Santa: Great, back to the beginning. You sure this is a good idea?
Junpei: What do you mean...?
Santa: Well, we already searched every inch of this room, didn't we? I'm asking you if there's any reason we came back here.
-Of course there's a reason.-
-No idea.-
I know we picked this option before but, of course's we have a reason!
Junpei: Of course there's a reason. Man, sometimes I can't tell if you're smart or just lucky...
Santa: ...Huh?
Junpei: This.
'Junpei pulled 2 things out of his pockets. The [Saturn key card]...And the [Earth key]. Santa cocked his head to one side, like an inquisitive bird, and looked at them. After several long moments, during which it became apparent that Santa had no idea what the cards meant, June took pity on him.'
June: Don't you remember, Santa? On C Deck, where we are now, there was a big elevator behind the stairs, remember? And next to the elevator, where was a card reader with the Saturn symbol on it. And on A Deck, on the door to the left... There was a keyhole with the Earth symbol on it. ...I think. So, the 2 keys that Jumpy has--
Santa: Should let us use the elevator and the door on A Deck... Huh.
June: Yes. That's right.
'June smiled, pleased with herself. So did Santa.'
Santa: All right, I got it. Let's get started, then. Wadda you say we split into 2 teams? Lotus and I will search the [Earth] one, so you 2 can search [Saturn], all right?
At least I we don't have a Uranus key, card or other wise. (*snicker*) ([sarcasm] Yeah, real mature there. [/sarcasm])
Junpei: Sounds good.
'Junpei handed the [Earth key] to Santa. They decided that their initial search should be brief--only 10 minutes. They'd meet back near the staircase once they were done. Junpei and June headed for the elevators.'
Here we go!
'Sure enough, there was a card reader bolted to the wall next to the left elevator. He lined up the [Saturn key card] and swiped it through the reader. A light on the upper left corner blinked to life.'
Junpei: Great. Looks like it's working now.
June: All right, now how do I call the elevator...
'There was a single button to the right of the elevator door. On the button was the upside-down triangle--the universal symbol for "down". There didn't appear to be an "up" button. Junpei pushed it. He didn't have much of a choice.'
June: It...it opened! Look, Jumpy!
'June's voice was excited, but Junpei could hear a tinge of anxiety.'
Junpei: Sweet, it opened. Let's get going.
'He grinned at June, and stepped toward the open door. As he was about to set foot in it, he felt a hand on his arm.'
June: W-W-W-Wait...
Junpei: What...?
June: I-I-I-I'm not really...uh... I just... Oh gosh...
'Junpei was at something of a loss. What could she possibly be so frightened of?'
'<<June was probably afraid of...>>'
-Being locked up alone with a boy.-
-They could only go down.-
As amusing as it was, we already know what happens when Junpei... ("Tenmyouji"...) ...Yeah. (The mysterious voice is back again.) Anyway, we're going to pick the actual reason this time.
'She was afraid because the only elevator button pointed down. That meant, of course, that the elevator couldn't go any higher than the floor they were on. As he thought about it, Junpei realized he hadn't seen elevators on the A or B decks near the central staircase. All of which meant that the elevator could only convey them to the lower decks. And the floor below the one they were on--D Deck--should be completely submerged. That meant...'
It's a fear of drowning.
Junpei: Hey, wait a minute. This elevator came up from somewhere under us, right?
June: Um, well... Yes, I guess it did. It didn't open right away, after you pressed the button. There was a motor noise, like it was moving, and then it opened.
Junpei: Yeah, exactly.
June: Yes...
Junpei: So take a look inside.
'Junpei jerked his head toward the interior of the elevator.'
Junpei: It's not wet at all, is it? The walls and even the floor are totally dry.
June: Oh... You're right, they are...
'She looked around the elevator, slightly embarrassed.'
Junpei: Well, let's test it.
June: Test it?
Junpei: Yeah. Watch this.
'Junpei put one foot in the elevator and bent around the corner of the door until he could see the floor buttons. There were only 2: E and C. He pushed the E button and jumped out of the elevator. The door slid shut, and they heard the grinding of the motor as the elevator car moved down.'
(And...)
'A few moments later, they heard the sound of the elevator door grinding open several floors below. Junpei nodded to June, and pressed the elevator button again. A few moments later, the elevator returned. The door slid open, and just as Junpei had expected, there was no water to be found.'
(At least it wasn't some big, fat hermaphrodite with a flock-of-seagulls haircut and only one nostril.) (This time it's a reference to a Weird Al song...)
Junpei: See?
'Junpei couldn't resist puffing out his chest, just a little bit. June, however, still looked confused.'
June: What does that mean? How can the E Deck be safe if the D Deck is full of water?
Junpei: Well, here's what I think... The elevator shaft and E Deck must be water-tight, and separated from wherever the ship's been punctured. Here, let me show you...
'He pulled out his notebook and pen, and sketched out a rough illustration.'
June: I see... So is that why the ship hasn't sunk? The shape of the inside keeps it from all filling with water?
Junpei: Yeah, I think that's what's going on.
'Junpei continued talking as he closed the notebook and slipped it back into his pocket.'
Junpei: So I'm gonna go down and check it out. You stay here, all right?
June: Um...but...
Junpei: C'mon, just do it, all right?
...Why?
'He gave June's shoulder a reassuring squeeze, then hopped onto the elevator. He pushed the E button, and the door began to close... June looked worried, her eyes darting back and forth as if she was trying to make a decision, when suddenly--'
June: I-I'm coming with you!
Junpei: Huh?!
'At the last possible moment, June dashed forward, turning sideways just in time to slip through the gap between the closing doors. Junpei jammed his finger against the "Open" button-- But it was too late. The door had shut, he and June were in the elevator, and it was headed down, to E Deck. He was so surprised by June that he didn't even have time to think about what awaited him on the E Deck. The elevator stopped, and the door slid open.'
(And we're NOT going to see the Dragon Palace.)
'They stepped off, onto the floor outside the elevator. Nothing seemed especially unusual. No fish going about their fishy business, or jellyfish floating lazily through the water. There was, however, a blowfish.'
Wait, what?
'...Or at least something that looked very much like one. June's cheeks were puffed out, and her mouth a tiny, intense frown.'
June... That's not in any way, shape, or form necessary.
June: Mmmm...
Junpei: Oh, knock it off. It's just like I thought... This part isn't flooded. Come on, just look around! There's no water here! June looked around nervously, then...
June: Haah--!
'...Exhaled.'
June: You're right... It's not flooded at all.
Junpei: See?
June: But there's a whole lot of water...
Junpei: Yeah, right on top of us.
June: What's going to happen if the ceiling breaks?
Let's... Just not think about that at the moment. Okay?
'Junpei thought about that for a moment.'
*facepalm*
Junpei: We'd probably die.
Yeah, that's the inevitable conclusion I wanted to avoid saying out loud.
June: O-Oh no... D-Don't be so casual about something like that...
Junpei: At any rate, we should probably go back as soon as we can, once we're done looking around down here. Lotus and Santa might already be back.
June: Okay. Good idea.
'Junpei glanced around the room they'd found themselves in. The first thing he noticed was a set of thick iron bars. They ran the length of the room, separating the left elevator from the right one.'
Junpei: Well, we can't go over there.
June: Right.
'Then perhaps... In the corner of the room that housed the elevators, Junpei found an opening. He walked up to it and stuck his head around the corner.'
And we already see door six... (Well. Between one, two, and six; six is the only door we haven't seen the other side of.) So, that's our target. (It's also there where Clover went axe-crazy on Santa, Seven, and June back in the first playthrough!) Dude! [simultaneous] Did you really have to remind us of that!? (Did you really have to remind us of that!?) [/simultaneous]
'A long, straight hallway stretched out in front of him.'
June: That door at the end of the hallway... There's something written on it.
Junpei: Yeah. Let's go have a look.
'Junpei and June set off down the hallway at a brisk clip, somewhere between a run and a jog. Before long, they found themselves in front of the door. On it was a number written in bright red paint...[6].'
Junpei: I knew it...
So did we.
June: This is a numbered door! And indeed, there was a RED bolted to the wall right next to the door. Of course, with only 2 people, there wasn't much they could do wit it.'
Junpei: All right, let's head back.
June: Yes!
'Junpei and June turned, and headed back to C Deck. On their way back, Junpei noticed a map on the wall. As it turned out, it was a burnt [map of the ship's interior] for E Deck.'
So...
'...'
(It's burnt...)
'...'
Yeah... (Not a good sign there.)
Junpei: Huh... So you guys found door [1]...
'They'd met back up with Santa and Lotus, who had explained what they'd found. Apparently, there was another numbered door on A Deck, just like the one on E Deck, beyond the door that the Earth key opened. According to Santa and Lotus, there was a [1] on the door. All told, they had discovered 2 new doors: The [6] door and the [1] door.'
Lotus: It is interesting that E Deck wasn't flooded...
'Lotus was quiet for a moment, lost in thought.'
Junpei: Well, we don't really know if all of E Deck is safe. We only checked the area around the elevator.
Lotus: Even so. It's still very interesting...
Santa: You said the [6] door was there, right?
June: Yes.
Santa: Then that means Zero planned all this out, even the sinking. That would have meant some pretty serious remodeling of the ship's interior.
(Of course, assuming we're even on a motherfucking boat in the first place...) (Did you just say that to make a reference to a rap song?) (Yeah, let's just go with that.)
Lotus: It's pretty mindblowing, when you think about it.
June: Yeah. I wonder how long it took... I can't even imagine how much it must've cost...
Santa: It would've been a ton, that's for sure.
Or a truck-load, or a boat-load... (Or a fuck-ton.) ...take your pick.
Junpei: Well, that does go along with what Ace was saying. The most reasonable explanation would be that this was done by some organization with access to a whole lot of cash.
Lotus: Yes, it does make sense...
'That thought made them all go quiet for a moment. June bit her lip while Lotus sighed softly to herself and Santa cracked a stiff neck and stared off into the distance at nothing.'
June: Um... I don't think it's a very good idea to stay here.
'June looked up at Junpei with large, pleading eyes.'
Junpei: Yeah, you're right.
(Ah, Junpei...) ("Tenmyouji"...) (...is a sucker for love. ...Yeah, that strange voice is for sure back again.)
Junpei: Ace and his team might be back already.
Lotus: Well, June, Junpei, and I should be able to open door [1].
Uh, no, we're aiming for door six. (Why?) Because it's the one door at this point we haven't seen behind yet. Although, now that you mention it, I haven't even seen the other side of door six even in those two and a half playthroughs I did before this...
Santa: Huh? You guys leaving me behind?
'8 + 6 + 5 = 19 [insert arrow here] 1 + 9 = 10 [insert arrow here] 1 + 0 = 1'
(Although this would be more like "8 + 0 + 5" which equals "13" and "1 + 3" equals "4" so, nope not gonna work. But let's see what happens if we add Santa instead of June... "8 + 5 + 9" ...well, to skip the boring shit; the digital root is still "4".) (Monster... Why are you constantly being confused about Santa and June's bracelet numbers?) (Uh... To mess with ya. *whispers to self* Phew... Saved my nachos.)
Lotus: Just kidding. All right. Let's go.
'Lotus's words were all the impetus they needed. Back to the large hospital room they went.'
So, we're not the only ones to call it that.
'The moment they stepped inside, a tremendous voice echoes across the room.'
(Let me guess, it's Clover morning her brother.)
Seven: Hey! Where the hell did you guys go?!
(Oops.) Yeah, Akurei's not right all the time...
'It was Seven. Ace was right behind him, and Clover was behind Ace, although she seemed to be hanging back. It looked as though there was something...strange about them.'
Saw the dead body? (Saw the dead body...)
'Seven had the look of a man who'd seen a ghost. Ace was just as pale, and Clover looked as though she was only moments from passing out entirely.'
Well, there goes the idea of the Ninth man being the only dead person here. ([sarcasm] Oh please...! [/sarcasm] You saw that in the last playthrough.) ...I have no idea why this lady here is convinced that I have seen this and met you two before. (Liar.)
'For a long moment, they simply stood there, looking at one another. Junpei looked around nervously, waiting for someone else to speak. No one did.'
...Oh yeah, none of the canon characters can hear or see us.
'He looked at Seven.'
Junpei: What...happened?
("Someone set us up the bomb!") (...What?) "Main screen turn on..." (Hold it! You've already done a stupid Zero Wing reference in the previous post!)
Seven: What the hell kind of a question is that?!
'Seven was trying very hard to be angry, but something had shaken him, hard. His shoulders were trembling, and his voice was strained.'
Seven: Snake was... Snake is...
("Exploded" and "Dead".)
'Seven couldn't finish.'
(But I could!) (And you're a Monster for that.) (Why, thank you Pansy.)
'He just looked away, his face twisted by... Junpei wasn't sure what. Instead, Ace spoke. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and spoke.'
Ace: Snake is...dead.
...Yeah, what Ace said.
Ace: He died...just as the 9th Man did.
Junpei: !
(...That's no surprise to us.) I'd hate to say this, but, I agree with Akurei here...
'It was as if all the air had suddenly been sucked out of the room. Junpei felt his heartbeat quicken, and he realized he was having trouble breathing. He could feel cold sweat beading on his forehead and neck. June, Santa, and Lotus looked the way he felt. All 3 were frozen in place, their faces white.'
June: Oh my God... That's not true, is it...?
Junpei: ...
Lotus: We should make sure!
Junpei: Y-Yeah, right, we should...
'They nodded to one another, and headed for the number [3] door--'
Seven: Wait! Not that way.
'They stopped short, and turned to look at Seven.'
(Ah, right, the back entrance...) What "back entrance"? (You know blessed well what I mean by "back entrance"!)
'He was pointing at the [door with no number]...'
Seven: I stuck a screwdriver in there, to keep the door from closing all the way. It's not locked, so you can go in that way.
Junpei: Where is...where is he?
Yeah... Junpei doesn't keep any memories from the previous playthroughs.
Seven: The [shower room], on the left side of the hallway. I put a broom in there too, to keep the door open.
Santa: We can get in without going through the numbered door, right?
Seven: Yeah, that's right.
'Their new destination clear, Junpei and his companions headed for the [door with no number].'
Hopefully not "companion" in that sense of the word. (Now it's a Firefly reference...)
'Once in the hallway, it was easy to spot the metal door on the left wall. It hadn't been open when they'd been through before... But now, just as Seven had said, there was a broom stuck between the door and the frame, keeping it open. They looked at it for a moment, then stepped inside.'
Lotus: Ugh... It smells horrible...
(Well, yeah, the chunky salsa dip in here as kind of aged for a bit long by now...)
'Lotus wrinkled her nose and covered her mouth in disgust. Even Santa pinched his nose shut...'
Santa: Yeah, this is pretty awful... I feel like I'm gonna puke.
'It was just as bad as they said--perhaps worse. A hideous smell filled the air, so thick they could almost taste it. It was sour, and smelled of fish, feces, and burnt meat...'
(Yum. Not the shit part, but you know what I mean...) [simultaneous] No, we don't! (No, we don't!) [/simultaneous]
'It worked its way through Junpei's nose and down his throat, to pound against the entrance to his stomach. He put his hands over his mouth, and struggled to keep what little was in his stomach where it belonged. They didn't have to wonder where the body was. There was blood everywhere, a few arms of the splatter reaching toward them as they walked in through the door. All one had to do was follow the many radial arms to their source...'
(Well, better upgrade my "Unholy Nachos"...again...)
'The body itself was hidden behind a divider.'
Junpei: June, you should stay here.
June: But...
Junpei: Please, just do me a favor, okay?
Sorry June, but, the last time you saw this you kind of went crazy...
Junpei: All right?
'He didn't give her a chance to say no. He put his hand on her shoulder, as if to shove her into the ground like a tentpole, turned, and walked toward the end of the divider. It felt like it took an eternity for him to get there. Santa and Lotus followed, timid and nervous as a pair of children. Eventually, they reached the divider.'
*facepalm* Akurei... Are you quite done with your "nacho dip" yet?
'They looked at one another and nodded, slowly. Junpei put his hands on the divider and peered around the corner. For a moment, he forgot to breathe.'
(Oh shit! Okay, I'm done! *leaves area of the corpse*)
'He felt his heart collapse in his chest like an empty cigarette carton, and time froze. He knew in that instant that he would take the image before him to the grave.'
(Ah, don't worry you'll join him soon...) [simultaneous] "Circle you! Circle you!" ("Circle you! Circle you!") [/simultaneous] "Can you feel time creeping closer...?" [simultaneous] "Circle you! Circle you!" ("Circle you! Circle you!") [/simultaneous] ("I'm so sorry, your turn's over...") [simultaneous] "'Till we see the rising sun, they take heads from off our shoulders..." ("'Till we see the rising sun, they take heads from off our shoulders...") [/simultaneous] (Okay, that's enough! No more...of these shenanigans!) Aw man...! (I thought we could get the Pansy to make a Monty Python reference!)
'What was left of the body sat in a sea of blood. Chunks of flesh, torn from the body, sat in the blood like tiny islands in a great, red sea. A vast, ragged hole had been torn in the torso, and what remained of his intestines spilled out of it like fresh spaghetti. Smaller chunks of meat had splattered against the wall, and become stuck there as they dried. Globules of yellowish fat had left trails like tiny slugs as gravity pulled them down the wall, even as they dried to it.'
Santa: Just like Ace said...
'Santa's voice was strained. Junpei suspected he was holding down some vomit of his own.'
Santa: Just like the 9th Man. The detonator in his bracelet set off the bomb in his gut.
'It looked as though the explosion had been quite powerful.'
Although, not like a "miniature rose" bomb. If that were the case, the ship would be shrapnel. And, if we survived the initial blast, we'd be dying of poison. (Oh yeah, you did see the end of the "Chimera Ant Arc" of HunterXHunter...)
'His legs were both bent in an odd, unnatural way, and his left arm had split open, exposing the painfully white bone of his ulna.'
(*sigh* *facepalm* If you knew what I know, you'd know that'd be impossible...) (Huh?) Oh... Akurei's just being strange. That's all.
'His bracelet lay next to him. It seemed to have hit the wall hard enough to have shattered the display, which lay on the ground in pieces. Half of his head had simply collapsed. The blood coating almost made it look like raw pizza dough covered in tomato sauce.'
(...First spaghetti and now pizza? Kind of obsessed with the food analogies there.)
'His clothes, too, were covered in blood. The burgundy tie, the white shirt, the jacking with the yellow piping, and the gray slacks... They were all familiar to Junpei.'
Lotus: No mistake about that. It's Snake...
'Lotus's voice was unnaturally deep and strained, and Junpei heard it catch in her throat.'
Wow...
'...'
(I'm just surprised you still have that shocked reaction.)
'...'
Well, I had to say something.
'The squeal of tortured metal made Junpei's teeth curl. It sounded like the noise a ghost would make. No matter how many times he heard it, he never got used to it.' Every time, it put him on edge. It didn't help that there was a girl nearby who looked far more like a ghost than a living human should.'
(Let me...)
'It was Clover.'
(...yeah, figured.)
'She sat on the edge of the bed, her head drooping listlessly onto her chest. Her eyes were blank, and stared across the room at nothing. Her breathing was slow and mechanical. Aside from the rise and fall of her chest, she didn't move. Junpei felt as if even a nudge might cause her to shatter into a thousand pieces.'
Seven: Snake was probably murdered. Chances are he was killed the same way the 9th Man was.
'Seven lowered his voice, likely in an effort to keep Clover from hearing what he had to say. There were 4 other people in the room with Junpei and Seven. Ace, Santa, June, and Lotus. Seven looked at each one of them in turn, and continued.'
Seven: It's pretty straightforward. Not that hard to figure out how they did it. First, the killers got Snake to authenticate on the RED to open the door [3]. Then they shoved him into it, alone...And waited 9 seconds for the door to shut. Once that door shut, it was over for Snake, but he didn't give up. He probably knew it wouldn't do him any good, but he probably ran into the shower room looking for the DEAD. It was a small chance, but it wasn't like he had anything to lose. Unfortunately, it didn't work.
(Of course! Don't you know anything about...!) (No! You're not going to "borrow" another joke from Atop the Fourth Wall!)
Seven: The detonator's only deactivated if everybody who authenticated when they went in uses the DEAD. And then 81 seconds after he was shoved in...
("Boom!" and "Splat!")
Seven: That happened.
Junpei: I see... So that's what you meant by killers, huh. You need at least 3 people to open one of the numbered doors, including Snake. It wouldn't open for Snake and a single killer.
(Unless the killer had the bracelet of someone who's already dead...) *Ji...* (What are you staring at me for!? I'm just saying!) [sarcasm] Right... [/sarcasm]
Seven: Exactly. That means we're looking at multiple perps here.
'Junpei crossed his arms and grunted.'
Junpei: Well, just in case, I wanna make sure. Let's say you're right... When do you think Snake was killed?
Seven: When we all split up to look for the parts for the REDs... I think. Right after that was when we noticed he was gone.
Actually, it was more after the REDs were mysteriously fixed that you guys noticed that Snake was missing.
Junpei: Then that means none of us have alibis. We were all off searching the rooms we'd been assigned, looking for those parts...
Seven: Yeah... That means anybody could be a killer.
June: W-Wait a minute! What are you talking about?!
'June seemed shocked.'
June: How can you say 1 of us is a killer so casually?!
Seven: Well, not just 1 of us. If I'm right, then at least 2 of us are murderers.
Ace: Why don't you calm down a bit, Seven... What are you going to gain by being so suspicious? That's what Zero wants, you know.
(How about not getting killed by the individual who did it for something to gain from this. Hint-hint... Ace and, by association, Daemon did it!) First claiming we've met before when we clearly haven't, and now insisting that Ace and I killed Snake? Clearly, this is one hateful, hysterical bitch! Okay, that does it! You will NOT talk about my friend, Akurei, in such a manner anymore! (Okay, that does it! *pulls katana from behind back* You're going to die for this!) (*stands between Akurei and Daemon* No! I won't allow you to do this! This is supposed to be a fun experience!)
Seven: What...Zero wants?
Ace: Exactly.
Well, well, well... It's nice to know there's a lady on board who knows her place... *grabs Niyagi, picks her up, and forcibly kisses her* (*struggles out of Daemon's grasp* Wha... But... I...) Hey, did Shimohi even kiss you yet? (...) No?! Well... You thought it was going to be Shimohi who would give you your first kiss. But it was I, Daemon! ...What!? You've got nothing to say about me stealing your woman? *laughing out loud* You've got to be kidding! First of all, Niyagi isn't "my woman", she's a friend not to mention a human being rather than some possession... (Shimohi...)
Ace: This game was set up by Zero, wasn't it?
...But also; you pretty much nearly quoted the most infamous villain on the Internet, Dio Brando from the anime and manga series Jojo's Bizarre Adventure! *continuing to laugh out loud*
Ace: Any game has a winner and loser.
*stops laughing* Except for tabletop role-playing games. Unless you're a munchkin, in which case, you're doing it wrong! Oh... My... GOD...! YOU'RE SUCH A HUGE FREAKING NERD!!! Don't you have any shame or manly pride!? Nope, actually, I'm more proud of being a nerd!
Ace: Whoever makes it through door [9] is a winner, and those who don't are the losers. Zero is trying to make us fight against one another for that victory.
June: Then you're saying that Zero is trying to split us up by making us fight each other?
Ace: Yes. That is why we can't let ourselves fall prey to suspicion. We have to trust one another, and form a strong bond of friendship.
Oh please, Ace, you wouldn't know what friendship is even if I were to sing a song all about it; of course, assuming you could hear me sing that song in the first place!
Ace: Otherwise, we'll end up ensnared by Zero's manipulations.
[sarcasm] Oh right, because being ensnared by your manipulations is sooo much better. [/sarcasm]
Lotus: Then, does that mean that...the person who killed Snake...
Ace: Yes. Almost certainly Zero himself. If there's anyone we should doubt, it should be Zero. He masterminded this game, and kidnapped all of us. Doesn't it seem reasonable that he would have killed Snake as well?
(Nope.) Well, you're just a... *punches Daemon* Okay, this proves it. It's not just your name that's the same. I think Akurei was right all along, you are the same Daemon Spearmeister that we occasionally saw in the previous playthough! (You think you had it bad, I had to hear him the entire time! Like all of us have to now!)
'Junpei hadn't really considered that. If Zero had killed Snake, then Zero was on the ship with them.'
'<<Was Zero still on the ship with them...?>>'
-Junpei wasn't sure.-
-Of course.-
(We all know the answer to that one.)
'Of course he was. That was obvious. Zero was somewhere on the ship, but... Junpei had no idea where. Junpei mumbled to himself, lost in thought.'
Junpei: ...Where could Zero be hiding...?
'Suddenly, everyone went very quiet. The silence was cold and clammy, and Junpei could feel it crawling across his back and around his throat. Again, he heard the ghosting moaning noise. And moments later, a person who looked more ghost than human appeared.'
(Clover.)
'It was Clover.'
(I knew it!) Liar! Women don't... *punch* If you do that again, I'll make sure you regret that with every...single...fibre...of your...BEING! (*laughs* Yeah, heaven, I might even provide the combustable garbage truck for that!) Huh? (*knocks Daemon out with a punch* There now we don't have to deal with him for a while.)
'She looked at the floor as she spoke, and her voice was a cold monotone.'
Clover: I think... I think Zero is...one of us...
'?!'
(Hey, narrator! Why are you surprised at this?)
'Every human body in the room froze. The only sound was the muffled rustling of breath. Eyes darted from face to face. One of those faces was the face of their jailer. ...But who?'
(I already know who that is.) Yeah, we know, that's why I issued that "keep quiet about that or your nachos disappear" ultimatum.
'Junpei...'
'<<Said...>>'
-"Hmm... Well, that's possible."-
-"That's crazy!"-
(Shimohi! I noticed you didn't pick the second option yet.) That's because I know it's incorrect. (Well, we might as well see what happens.) ...Okay, why the hell not?
Junpei: That's crazy!
(Well, let's see where this...) (Crazy train!) (*facepalm* ...takes us...)
Junpei: Isn't this ship going to sink in a few hours?
[This shhip: 11]
Junpei: If Zero was here with us, he'd be putting himself in danger! Why the hell would he do something like that?! There's no motive!
'Clover looked up at Junpei, and her face fell.'
Clover: You...don't believe me...
Junpei: ...
'Her eyes were so pitiful... The moment Junpei's met them, he felt his heart tighten. He didn't think what he said was wrong...But perhaps the way he'd said it had been. He'd been too insensitive. Clover had just lost her brother. His death would have been bad enough, but she'd also seen the blasted wreck of his body. Junpei barely knew him, and the sight had been enough to make him sick. What Clover had felt...he couldn't begin to imagine.'
(And THIS is why you're a Monster. You see the corpse of someone you've known for as long as he had, if not longer if you count those previous playthroughs, and your first thought is "Wow, this would make awesome nacho topping!"!? That's sick, twisted and disgusting in so many ways!) ...You do realize that those sort of "shaming tactics" will just be treated like compliments by someone like Akurei, right?
'In the mental state she must have been in, it was understandable that she would look at those around her with suspicion. She felt everyone was against her. The least Junpei could have done was try to understand what she was feeling. He felt ashamed of what he'd said.'
Wow, didn't anticipate that kind of consequence...
'Perhaps, he thought, I should apologize. But before that apology could begin--'
Ace: Clover, I understand what you're feeling. You don't feel that you can trust any of us.
'Ace had beaten Junpei to the punch. As he spoke to Clover, his face was calm and friendly.'
Ace: But you have to understand... The more we distrust one another, the further we fall into our true foe's trap. Zero was the one who did those horrible things to your brother. Do you want to let yourself be manipulated by someone who would do such a horrible thing?
(You mean "do such a horrible thing again?") (Huh?) Nevermind...
'Clover didn't answer. She didn't even look at Ace. The whole time, her eyes were on Junpei. He could feel Clover's eyes boring into him. They were the color of a deep winter lake. Junpei saw no suspicion in them...only sadness. Then, in that horrible silence--'
It's that clock again...
'They heard a bell begin to ring. It was the clock at the central staircase.'
Santa: 3 in the morning...
("PM!") Actually, the narration line from a silly home movie that my weird little brother and his equally strange friend made is "Three o'clock, in the morning, PM!" (Either way, that makes absolutely no sense what so ever.)
Lotus: That means we have 3 hours left...
Ace: Then we need to move, now.
Yeah, time to pick our third door to go through.
Ace: Seven, Clover... I know how you feel, but you do understand that, right now, it's important we trust one another, don't you?
'Seven and Clover remained silent. Their eyes were looking at something somewhere else, very far away.'
Ace: We must go! We have very little time left!
'Ace's words put their feet to moving.'
Huh? What did I miss? (Nothing important.) To take a page from your book, [sarcasm] Right... [/sarcasm] (No, seriously, nothing really interesting was... mentioned...) Ah, I see my pretty little lady... Dude, Niyagi is not your property just because you forced a kiss on her!
'They all knew where they were going. Their next destination...was [Mercury].'
Oh shit... That's where door number two is!
'It sat, bolted to the wall near the stairs that lead to the casino and the kitchen, between the 2 elevators. The Mercury card reader. Junpei stood in front of it with the [Mercury key card]... Seven had given him the card.'
Seven: I found it when we were checking out the shower room.
I know, you guys found it in the drain...
'At least, that's what he said. Junpei slid the card through the reader. The light on the reader turned green and made a tiny, electronic noise. Now, they were ready. Junpei and June had been chosen as the investigators. The reason being that they had been to E Deck before, and no one else had.'
Well... Akurei, Niyagi, and I clearly don't count in this. That much is obvious you stupid nerd!
'As before, Junpei sent the elevator ahead, to make sure the floor they were heading to wasn't flooded. As before, the elevator returned as dry as when it had left. Once it had been checked for water, Junpei and June stepped into the elevator.'
Well, at least we don't have to deal with Daemon for a while. (Without resorting to violent head trauma.)
'There were only 2 floor buttons they could push... The "C" and "Bottom" buttons. The rest were destroyed or did nothing when pushed. Junpei hit the "Bottom" button. The door closed. Slowly, the began to move downward. Some time later, Junpei and June stepped off the elevator and onto the [Bottom Deck].'
So we're... "Down below...!" (Don't even get started with that obscure bluegrass song!)
'They stepped off, and saw that the hallway to their right ended somewhere between 20 and 25 feet from them. The hallway in front of them was a dead end... But not a regular dead end.'
It's one that has the number two door.
June: This is a numbered door...
Junpei: This is the 8th one we've found...
'There were 2 numbered doors on B Deck, near the central staircase.'
Numbers four and five.
'They were doors [4] and [5]. There were 3 more numbered doors in the large hospital room...'
Numbers three, seven, and eight.
'Doors [3], [7], and [8]. Junpei and June had found another door on E Deck and Lotus and Santa had fount a 7th on A Deck.'
Numbers six and one, in that order.
'There was a [6] on the door on E Deck... And a [1] on the door on A Deck. [4], [5], [3], [7], [8], [6], [1]... And now, door [2] stood in front of Junpei. There as only one thing it meant.'
After these three doors are cleared, we're going to find door number nine!
June: Do you think...the next door we find...
Junpei: Yeah, I think so. The next one's gonna be door [9].
'Despite himself, Junpei felt excited. There was something about that excitement that frightened him as well. He did his best to put it from his mind, and headed back to C Deck with June. ...'
(We're so sorry Junpei...) (Tenmyouji!) (...but you're going to die at the end of this playthough.)
'...'
Okay, seriously! Do we have any sort of clue about where that voice is coming from? (Sorry, no.) Damn it! Maybe we should listen closely when we mention his name again...
Junpei: All right, let's open these up.
'The pieces of paper they'd folded up lay on the ground next to Junpei's legs. There were 7 of them, all told. They were written on paper pulled from Junpei's notebook, and each one bore a codename and a door. Why had they decided to vote that way? They'd decided it wasn't fair to simply ask everyone at once--that would allow people to force others to go through certain doors. Well, that wasn't the only reason. Junpei had proposed the voting system...And he had a plan.'
Oh, we know what it is. Really!? Tell me, right now! Like hell I will. The one thing I, Shimohi Kagami, like more than anything is
finding people who think they're really hot shit and effectively saying "no" straight to
their faces. (Shimohi... Did you just paraphrase Rohan Kishibe's well known line from part four of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure?) Yeah, I wanted an excuse to say that. NERD!!! Thanks for the complement.
'It wasn't a plan he wanted anyone catching wind of, however, so he did his best to act calm as he began to open and read the pieces of paper. The 1st one read...'
Junpei: Ace requests door [1].
Of course...
Ace: Yes, I do. Would you like me to explain why?
Junpei: No, we don't have the time for that. Sorry.
(Besides, it's practically a meme in this group to go for the doors with the same number as your bracelet.)
Junpei: Let's keep going...
'He opened the second one.'
Junpei: Next is Santa. He wants door [6].
Santa: Yeah, that's what I wrote.
'Junpei continued with the 3rd, 4th, and 5th, pieces of paper.'
Junpei: Clover wants [1]... Lotus wants [2]...and Seven also wants [2].
Lotus: Eh!? W-W-Wait a minute! There's no way I'm going anywhere with the Elephant Man!
Dude, Seven looks nothing like the "Elephant Man"! Lotus is obviously not a dude! (*facepalm* Daemon, when Shimohi's pissed off, he calls everyone a dude...)
Junpei: No. There'd be no point to the voting if we let people change their choices because of stuff like that.
*snickers* What's this nerd laughing about?
Lotus: But--!
Seven: Just give it up, Lotus. It's not like I wanna hang out with some exhibitionist grandma.
Lotus: I'm not an exhibitionist! I'm wearing clothes!
(Clothes that are barely there!)
Seven: Barely.
(What Seven said.)
Lotus: So?! Last I checked, that's not a crime!
Indeed... Or at least it shouldn't be a crime.
Seven: Maybe, but what about common decency? Nobody wants to hafta look at a chick who looks like a half-naked raisin...
"Half-naked raisin"...? Dude, you need to get your eyes checked.
Lotus: RrrrrrrrRRRRGH! I'm going to kill you!
Bad idea! Bad idea! Why? Uh... You'll see someday.
'Lotus's hair flared out like the mane of a angry lion, and she roared with a voice that shook the walls. With some difficulty, Ace managed to restrain her.'
...
Ace: Junpei! Read the rest!
Junpei: U-Uh...right...
'Junpei tore his eyes away and looked down at the 6th piece of paper. He opened it.'
Junpei: June wants door [6]...
Yes!
June: Yes. I don't really have a reason, I just felt like it.
'All of the papers, save Junpei's, had been read. He did some quick calculations in his head. People who requested door [1] = Ace + Clover. (This was the door on [A Deck], near the central staircase.) People who requested door [2] = Seven + Lotus. (This was the door on the [Bottom Deck] and could be reached by taking the elevator to the bottom of the ship.) People who requested door [6] = Santa + June. (This was the door on [E Deck] and could be reached by taking the elevator near the central staircase down.)'
Okay, let's see... 4 + 5 + 1 has a digital root of "1". 7 + 8 + 5 has a digital root of "2". And 3 + 6 + 5 has a digital root of "5"...? (9 + 0 + 5 also has a digital root of "5".) (Why do you keep mentioning that!) (Because I can.)
'It took him less than a second to run the numbers. He opened the 7th piece of paper and spoke.'
Junpei: Okay, the last one is mine. I want to go through...
-Door [1].-
-Door [2].-
-Door [6].-
We've mentioned this before, we're going through...
Junpei: I want to go through...door [6].
'Junpei flipped open the piece of paper. It read "Junpei -- Door [6]". Of course it did. He'd written it, after all.'
Di-Did you actually predect that? Yeah, and here's another one. Do you know your next line? "What!? How the fucking hell are you going to do that!?" That's the one! What!? How the fucking hell are you going to do that!? Wha...?
June: Tha's a problem...
Yeah! That's another line from Jojo I wanted to use! What? The entire stupid prediction!? Not quite, it's a mad libs chatchphrase. Your responses have just become that predictable.
'June spoke barely above a whisper, but they all knew what she'd said.'
June: None of the teams will be able to go through the doors they want.
Ace: Clover and I chose door [1].
Seven: Lotus and I chose door [2].
Ace: That's not enough people to open a numbered door, however.
Seven: The digital root's don't match up either.
Santa: We've got similar problems. June, Junpei and I want to go through door [6]. But our digital root is 5. If we're gonna open that door, we need a (1).
Ah shit!
Lotus: Damn... What are we going to do now?
Junpei: What are we going to do...
'Junpei crossed his arms, and did his best to put his thoughts in order. The others followed suit, but with little result. Eventually Clover broke the silence.'
Clover: Why don't Seven and Lotus go through door [1]...? With me.
'Her face was cold and flat, as was her voice, but her logic was sound. Seven and Lotus looked at each other.
'7 + 8 + 4 = 19 [insert arrow here] 1 + 9 = 10 [insert arrow here] 1 + 0 = 1'
'The first problem resolved, Ace spoke up.'
Ace: What about...me?
Clover: Isn't that obvious?
No! No no no no! I do NOT want to have to be locked in a puzzle room with this asshole! *pointing to Daemon*
Clover: Wasn't one of the teams just complaining that they didn't have a (1)?
(Yes, that is what's going to happen.) Damn it! (I know, I know...)
Ace: You mean... I should join Santa's team?
'Clover nodded, her face still cold and emotionless. Her attitude and posture could not have been more different than the energetic girl of only a few hours before. No one seemed ready to contradict her.'
Including us... Have I already mentioned how much I don't like this? (Yes! Several times!)
'Her response was understandable, given the horrible situation in which she had found herself, but even so...'
Ace: I understand... I will go through door [6], then. If we do as Clover has suggested, we can all pass through a numbered door. No one will be left behind. This seems to be the most reasonable solution.
'3 + 6 + 5 + 1 = 15 [insert arrow here] 1 + 5 = 6'
Junpei: Seven? Lotus? What do you guys think?
Seven: I don't have a problem with it.
Lotus: Me either...
Junpei: All right then, we're good to go.
'...'
(Well, now we're entering unknown territory here...)
'...'
I don't recall ever dealing with the puzzle room behind door six yet...
*slow guitar sounds are heard*
'At last, Junpei and the other 6 had managed to separate themselves into 2 teams. Clover, Seven, and Lotus headed to [A Deck], where door [1] was, near the main staircase. Junpei, June, Ace, and Santa, however, took the elevator to [E Deck]...'
*the aforementioned guitar sounds pick up the pace*
-------------------
("To be continued!") *does an acapello version of the rest of the notes* ("I'll be the roundabout! The words will make...you out and out!") "You spend the day...your way!" ("Call it morning...") "...driving through the sound..." ("...in and out the valley!") (Hey! Why are you singing "Roundabout" now!?) (Check the post title. Anyway, no more interuptions 'till we're done!) "The music dance and sing!" ("They make the children really ring!") "I spend the day...your way! Call it morning..." ("...driving through the sound...") "...in and out the valley!" ("In and around the lake...") "Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there!" ("One mile over we'll be there...") "And we'll see you!" ("Ten true summers we'll be back...") "And laughing too! Twenty four before my love... [simultanious] "You'll see, I'll be there with you!" ("You'll see, I'll be there with you!") [/simultanious] (...Are you quite finished?) Yes. (*looks up* Should I have to impliment a Jojo reference jar as well?) (Heaven no! You're already annoying enough with the Monty Python one!) Besides, I only made two Jojo references in this post and foreshadowed a future one, and next time I might end up firing that Chevoks gun...
