Chapter 21: Separation
The doors to the stadium and outside are completely blocked, along with a divide between the two halves of the hall.
Jeremy: "(coughing) Guess they didn't finish repairs."
Dawn: "(coughing) Is everyone okay?"
The dust settles, revealing that Connor, Ashley, and Dominic aren't with them.
Jeremy: "That's not a good sign."
Jeremy calls Connor on his phone.
Dawn: "Lured us into a false sense of security before splitting us up when we're vulnerable."
Connor picks up.
Connor: "You guys okay?"
Jeremy: "Dawn and I aren't hurt."
Connor: "(relieved) At least we can confirm no one is six feet under."
They equip their Relay Gear.
Jeremy: "Listen, we're trapped and the only way we're to meet up is the field entrance on the other side of the stadium."
Connor: "Alright, we'll meet up there."
They hang up.
Jeremy: "Let's get going."
Dawn: "Thought you'd never ask."
They take the right passage.
Meanwhile...
Connor: "We're heading for the other stadium entrance."
Dominic: "Alright, let's try to be-"
Two of the players stand in their way, with a black glow in their eyes.
Ashley: "Great. Now the baseball team is after us."
They're tossing baseballs in their hands.
Connor: "Dominic and I need to be careful."
Dominic and Connor cover their-
Ashley: "(sighing) Just hurry and knock them out!"
They send their balls to ricochet across the walls.
Connor: "Quantum Wave!"
Connor weaves his way through before landing a hole in one in their guts, knocking them out.
Dominic: "I'll activate the Artist Wave when we meet up!"
Ashley: "And we'd better not drag our feet!"
They keep going down the left path.
Meanwhile...
Dawn: "What kind of Wave does this?!"
They're fending off two players as well.
Jeremy: "Let's hope it can't work on us!"
Jeremy Focus Waves one to a point of lightly cutting, knocking him out.
Dawn: "My Revolution Wave is useless here!"
Dawn's eyes flash red.
Dawn: "Maybe not this one, Venom Wave!"
One of them is hit with a small, purple arrow. This causes mild poisoning and an inability to move.
Jeremy: "Nice! Do you know when it'll wear off?"
Dawn: "Nope."
Dawn falls onto her knee.
Dawn: "Great."
The poisoned player is unconscious.
Jeremy: "Then let's hope he-"
Jeremy's eyes flash green.
Jeremy: "Nevermind! Vitality Wave!"
Jeremy's hand glows as the poison is removed from the body.
Jeremy: "This'll be handy."
Jeremy stumbles for a bit.
Dawn: "Come on, we've still have a bit."
They keep going.
Meanwhile...
Connor: "Flare Wave!"
Connor has discovered a new Wave as well in another battle, using it to trap another in rubble.
Ashley: "Drain Wave."
Ashley as well, draining energy from another and adding it to her supply.
Dominic: "At this rate, they won't have a chance to blink."
Connor falls onto his knee.
Connor: "Perfect timing."
Dominic helps Connor onto his feet.
Dominic: "Take it easy."
They continue...
