Chapter 18: Domain of Wrath
Two hours later...
Bell: "(exhausted) Great..."
The group has sat down at the edge of a large workbench.
Nia: "(exhausted) And we... still can't leave..."
They've kept trying to escape, but they're like prisoners here.
Marcel: "(exhausted) We just need a minute."
They begin to fall asleep, one by one.
Meanwhile...
Verse: "Aw man! My connection won't do anything for that..."
Verse begins to smile.
Verse: "At least not that connection."
Meanwhile...
Grace: "(groggy) What's that?"
The entire area begins to shake.
Ethan: "(groggy) I think Verse wants us to keep going."
They get up as the rumbling stops.
Amanda: "(groggy) Anyone else want to give Verse the middle finger when we see him?"
Everyone raises their hands.
Ike: "(shaking it off) I wish I could."
They stumble into the lab area, the only place they haven't been.
Samuel: "(hating himself) Can we make this quick?"
They step into a large testing area.
???: "I'm only here to see if you're good enough."
A woman walks towards them from the other side of the room.
Alexis: "(sleepy) Wrath."
Wrath pulls out her chainsaw.
Wrath: "Show me how much you can do, even when you're on your last legs."
Shoma: "(exhausted) Verse's orders?"
Wrath revs up her chainsaw.
Wrath: "Yes."
Wrath digs her weapon to the ground before riding it like a skateboard.
Chloe: "(awkwardly) At least she's creative."
Shoma digs his sword into the ground as magma pours from the blade.
Lucas: "Ike!"
Ike freezes the magma as it approaches Nia, the target of Wrath's attack.
Nia: "Thanks!"
It halts Wrath's progress as Grace and Amanda sends some bullets and arrows into her sides.
Faith: "Now!"
Nia tosses her chakrams as Alexis and Marcel approach from behind.
Wrath: "Not bad, but is it good enough?"
Wrath yanks out her chainsaw as she locks blades with Alexis.
Alexis: "Guys!"
The chakrams lodge themselves into Wrath's back as Marcel gets behind Wrath, kicks his ball, and causes them to go deeper.
Marcel: "Goal!"
Wrath: "(in pain) Is this good enough, Master Verse?"
Meanwhile...
Verse: "(thinking) Eh, just a little more will do."
Meanwhile...
Wrath: "As you-"
Shoma and Ike pincer attack into her sides.
Meanwhile...
Verse: "Okay, now you're good."
Meanwhile...
Wrath: "(shedding a tear) My purpose is complete."
Grace and Amanda land the fatal blow.
Alexis: "Alright!"
A Soul Coin forms from her remains.
Tyler: "Can we go now?!"
The group finally exits Zero Fiction, only to find it to be nighttime.
Marcel: "Uh..."
Bell: "Tomorrow?"
Ethan: "Tomorrow sounds good."
Everyone slowly returns home for the night...
