"W-Wha… but how…" Acaya muttered in shock, not wanting to believe the people who were supposed to be their allies had sabotaged them.
"It's simple," Iris continued, picking up where Qi Ling left off. "They passed through this path before us, so they knew those Ghosts were going to emerge out of the ground and start attacking. Because of that, they barricaded the exit on purpose in the hopes of getting us killed."
"I… I can't believe it…" Acaya groaned, crouching down and rubbing his forehead. "Why would… why would they do that…"
"U-Um, maybe they were trying to use the barricade to prevent the Phantoms from getting inside, like we just were…?" Iyesha suggested.
"Stop being delusional," Finn said harshly. "One, setting up this barricade takes time, and two, they could have simply removed it after the Ghosts all retreated — but they didn't. Why do you think that is?"
