"Natysh, here; grab hold of the key and clutch it close."
"Back away...…from the prisoner. She got what she deserved. She didn't want to merge, so this is her fate.
Do you want to be in the cell with her?"
"Kain, why are you doing this?"
"What do you mean? You told me yourself to do it. It would help relinquish my love for you, and I would do anything to fulfill that. Now that I have; if you let her go, I will feel I wasn't able to."
"Kain, there are other opportunities for you to show your….."
"STOP IT!!
*Pewwww*
*.....Ting*
Hold still, Elwin."
*Cli….."
"Guardian, why is she shooting at me?"
"Didn't you hear?"
"I know.....but why me? Doesn't he know I am not down here. How do I…."
*PEW*
"Urrrraaaaghhh"
"Elwin, go. I knocked the gun out of his…"
*Phueeeeem*
"You're weak, Natysh.
Come in, Lolli. Can you read me?"
"Loud and clear, Kain."
"We have a situation down here. Natysh is escaping me, and Elwin has lost it."
"Roger that. I'll send down someone to deal with that right away."
"Please send DeathPetal. You know how Elwin is. He is the only one who can't get burned."
"Roger that, Silent Killer. Anything else?"
"It would help for you to at least help me contain Elwin before she…."
"Come on, Natysh. I can't carry you forever, but I will try."
"Wait, where'd they go?"
"Elwin, why are you helping me, after it was you who called the order to wipe me out?"
"I can't talk right now. I told you. You have to…"
"Hey, who are you?"
"Oh crap."
"Elwin?"
"Elwin?"
"Who's the real Elwin? Wait, I'm….."
"Hi, Confused. I am real. Now, in here."
"Kain, I found the imposter. She is obviously a clone of me. Haven't seen a necklace on to verify, but I have her locked in the bathroom. Only a matter of time before she caves."
"Elwin, don't engage. I repeat…..don't…."
*Pow*
"I got you….now!!!!!!!!!"
"Natysh, we jump on three. One...…two….."
"Wait, through the bathroom mirror? Elwin, do you know what you're doing?"
"Impsoter, stop right there before I….."
"JUMP!!!!"
*PEW*
.....Aaaaaaaaaghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
Burr…burr….burrr….bur…..broooool.*
"Have you gotten all the answers you were looking for in there, Elwin?"
"My name's not Elwin.
It's, 'Little Girl!!!!!!!'
And I don't care how small I will have to be to carry others over me. Just as long as I don't stand on top like that."
"Bravo...Bravo!!!!"
"Elwin, what do you mean 'stand on top'? What did you see in there?"
"Darius, oh thank God you are okay."
*Oof*
"I.....am glad you are okay too, but what's wrong?"
"I saw everyone else in my feast, but I didn't see you."
"Oh. I...must have been washing my hands. The Guardian might not have shown you every corner of wherever you were."
"Uhuh."
"How do you think the others are doing?"
"Hopefully not getting shot at."
"Shot at? By who? Elwin, did you…"
"Kain shot me, but missed. Elwin shot me again; and she did not miss."
"Does it hurt? Where's the wound?"
"Wound? Darius, whatever happens in there cannot be taken back with you.
….Wait...…."
"What?"
"...It cannot be taken back with you?"
"Yeah, that is what you said; but why repeat it?"
"GUARDIAN, where's Natysh? I jumped through the Mirror with her? Is she...….did I mess up her...."
"The only person that can leave the Mirror is only the one who FIRST entered. The others merely just are tagalongs."
"So that's why you don't want others in a Mirror with us.
They'd get trapped."
"Not necessarily. They just have to find themselves and convince them that they indeed are not a clone."
"But it's the other person's dream. Why can't they just jump through glass to get to their own?"
"Haaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Elwin, you may be the queen above; deciding the rules; but their are certain places where there domain...…is not yours.
You're gonna have to accept that, and please...…accept it before it's too late."
"Too late? Too late for what?"
"Sorry. I can't discuss other people's futures with you. If their futures don't reflect upon you, then it's not for your ears."
