Later that night...

Fiola is currently gazing towards that cursed moon with malice.

Fiola: "(pissed) It's your damn fault I'm here."

She reaches towards the moon and clenches her fist.

Fiola: "(pissed) And that woman has every answer I could wish for."

She drops her fist.

Fiola: "When I get my hands on her I'll-"

Then the sounds of metal and stone clanging against each other echoes towards the cemetery.

Fiola: "The cemetery?"

She stands up and readies her arm blades.

Fiola: "Probably some grave robbers at it again."

She heads for the cemetery.

Meanwhile...

Emarah is the only one awake at this time. Rez and Clous are out cold.

Emarah: "But we can work together..."

She leans on her good arm while looking out the window.

Emarah: "Isn't that all you need to work together? We want the same thi-"

Emarah jumps at the sound of clanging stone and metal.

Emarah: "Wh-What's that?!"

She shakes Clous and Rez vigorously.

Emarah: "Wake up! Something's wrong!"

The two start regaining consciousness.

Clous: "(drowsy) Huh?"

Rez: "(drowsy) Emarah?"

Emarah: "There's something going on just outside town! Get up!"

They both stumble out of bed.

Clous: "(stretching) Then let's go check it out."

They all exit the room as they grab their weapons.

Meanwhile...

Fiola arrives at the cemetery to see undead Metalmoras stumbling towards town.

Fiola: "What the hell is going on?!"

Fiola readies an offensive stance.

Fiola: "I can't let these things get into town..."

She punches the skull right off the front runner.

Fiola: "... as much as I hate them."

A shard of black light seeps into Fiola with each enemy she defeats.

A half hour later...

The heroes have almost arrived at the cemetery.

Rez "(in pain) Those sounds are making my eardrums hurt."

Clous: "Oh yeah, sensitive hearing."

Rez is covering his ears to try and avoid the ear-grating sounds.

Rez: "(in pain) I can't stick around! You two go ahead!"

Clous and Emarah look back towards Rez.

Clous: "Alright, you just deal with anything that slips through."

Clous and Emarah go ahead, only to see Fiola fending off against the undead.

Emarah: "F-Fiola?!"

Clous charges up a shot as a name echoes in his mind.

Clous: "Black Bomb!"

Clous saves Fiola from an incoming attack from behind.

Fiola: "Huh?"

Fiola takes notice of the other two as they join in on the fight.

Emarah: "Need a hand?"

Fiola: "What makes you think tha-"

Emarah smashes her axe in the skull of another enemy.

Emarah: "We're experts when it comes to this."

Fiola is absorbing more and more black shards.

Fiola: "... Fine."

Fiola decapitates another.

Fiola: "But don't blame me when I leave you two in the dust."

Clous snipes another.

Clous: "Hey! That's my line!"

Fiola sends one flying straight through Emarah's axe.

Fiola: "Then say it faster next time."

Emarah sends a circle of black light around her that takes care of any enemies ganging up on her.

Fiola: "What the hell was that?!"

Emarah: "I-I'll be honest, I don't know exactly what this is."

Fiola does a backflip to dodge, but uses her arms to send a flying kick straight into the head of her assailant.

Clous: "(dumbfounded) Much like how I won't understand what that was."

Fiola: "Can you stop gawking?"

The final wave is heading straight for them.

Clous: "On it!"

Clous readies his slingshot.

Clous: "Let's see how many we can deal with!"

Clous fires another bomb as Emarah does another AOE attack.

Fiola: "(in head) These two aren't half bad."

She then remembers about Rez as she starts pummeling another group.

Fiola: "Where's your friend?"

Clous: "His ears couldn't handle the noise, so he had to stay behind."

Fiola: "Oh yeah, he's blind with sensitive hearing."

The enemies start to surround them.

Emarah: "Th-There's too many to deal with all at once!"

They're all locked back to back.

Fiola: "This... fucking sucks."

Fiola is stumbling in place.

Clous: "How long were you fighting until we showed up?"

Fiola: "(stumbling) You really want an answer?"

They're getting closer and closer.

Emarah: "Rez!"

???: "Black Scar!"

A wave of black light makes a large opening in the circle, revealing Rez just on the other side.

Clous: "The sounds aren't bothering you anymore?"

Rez: "Yep."

Fiola looks at Rez.

Fiola: "(in head) These people can actually fight with The Night's Taboo?"

Rez fires another wave.

Rez: "You guys get over here with me so we can finish it in one wave!"

They all join up with Rez.

Clous: "And fire!"

Rez and Clous pour all their magic into a final attack, decimating all that stand in their way... mostly.

Emarah: "Alright!"

Rez and Clous turn towards them as the black shards seep into Fiola.

Clous: "You should expect that from us."

However, one more zombie is heading straight for Clous.

Fiola: "Watch out!"

Fiola slugs the last one back into the grave, allowing the final shard to seep into Fiola.

Fiola: "(dazed) Why do I feel so... lightheaded?"

Fiola falls onto her knee.

Emarah: "F-Fiola?"

Fiola passes out...
