Chapter 10: Mindset of Blood
Next weekend...
Lucas: "(exhausted) It just gets worse every day."
Nia shakes them back into reality.
Nia: "Less school, more fighting."
Bell: "You can sleep later!"
They begin to enter Zero Fiction.
Meanwhile...
A girl with braided, red hair, light orange shirt, navy blue jeans, and very pale skin has just set down a large suitcase on a pink bed. A rope is sitting on the windowsill.
Girl: "That's everything."
A ghost of a girl similar in height and age floats behind her.
Ghost: "Grace, shouldn't we go see how the others are doing?"
Grace: "(excited) You're right Faith! Maybe Lucas and Shoma are waiting for us!"
Grace darts out the door.
Faith: "(sarcastically) Great."
Meanwhile...
The heroes have arrived in front of a distorted bar.
Alexis: "Uh oh..."
Samuel: "We're underage!"
They begin to walk inside.
Ethan: "Then don't drink."
They step inside, only to find a maze of countertops, wine bottles, puddles of beer, and even shattered glass.
Amanda: "(nauseous) I think I'm going to be sick."
Soldiers stumble through the maze.
Chloe: "You can puke later!"
They ready for combat...
Meanwhile...
Grace: "They already dived in?"
Camilla: "You can still catch up."
Faith: "Just go!"
Grace: "Zero Fiction!"
Meanwhile...
Ike: "Have we been here already?"
The group feel like they've gone in circles.
Shoma: "Everything looks the same."
Lucas: "And toxic."
Ethan: "Joking at a time like this?"
Samuel: "We've gotta have something in a time like this."
Bell: "Just don't let it get in our way."
They keep going.
Meanwhile...
Grace: "How are we going to find them?"
Grace is holding a light pink bow giving off a strange aura.
Faith: "Just go?"
Grace notices a blood trail.
Grace: "Bingo."
Grace follows the trail.
Two hours later...
Amanda: "I can see the light!"
They have arrive at the center, with a pool of what they hope is red wine.
Chloe: "I'm already starting to feel sick."
???: "(seductively) Are you ready to have some fun?"
Samuel: "Nope!"
A woman wearing very suggestive clothing is standing on top of the tallest wine bottle.
???: "(seductively) I'm going to have... my own kind of fun."
Shoma: "Um... how about no?"
Amanda fires a bullet that grazes her cheek.
Nia: "Judging by your attitude, you must be Lust."
Lust: "Oh yes."
Lust jumps down just behind the lake.
Lust: "Then don't keep me waiting."
Magma drips from Shoma's sword.
Shoma: "We don't keep anyone waiting."
Lust: "(smirking) Good."
The group prepare for a pincer attack.
Lust: "Oh, that won't work."
Mid attack, Lust grabs Ike and Shoma from the right and throws them into the others like bowling pins.
Alexis: "(in pain) Guess you don't need a weapon to be a threat."
They readjust their stances.
Lucas: "We need a better plan!"
Lust picks up some of the liquid from the pond.
Lust: "Enjoy."
Lust tosses it into Shoma's eyes, making him unable to see.
Shoma: "(blinded) That definitely isn't wine!"
Alexis tries to rub it off his eyes, but Lust has already grabbed them both by the necks.
Lust: "I'll break your necks nice and slow."
Lust deflects any attacks with just her left leg.
Lust: "Oh don't be hasty. Everyone gets a turn."
They're nearing the grave.
Alexis: "(weakly) I... can't..."
???: "Lucas!"
A pink arrow strikes Lust in the leg, causing her to let go.
Lust: "Huh?"
Grace is aiming an arrow straight between her eyes.
Grace: "No one hurts Lucas and gets away with it!"
Faith: "(sighing) Oh my fucking god."
Shoma gets the substance out of his eyes.
Lucas: "Aw crap!"
Nia: "Got lost?"
Grace menacingly walks towards Lust.
Faith: "Followed your blood trail."
Lust: "Aw well, guess I'm finished."
Grace holds her bow firmly.
Lust: "Master Verse does say he wants the bond back."
Grace is holding the arrow at point blank.
Grace: "Not going to fight back?"
Lust isn't nearby anyone else by now. Plus, her leg wound won't let her stand up.
Lust: "Just be gentle."
Grace lets go, turning Lust into a kebab.
Grace: "Sayonara, bitch."
The pond erupts with the liquid, devouring the area as Lust leaves her Soul Coin behind.
Alexis: "(grabbing coin) Then let's regroup."
They exit just before being consumed...
