As the three of you walk through the main entrance to The Monument, you see Amy waiting for you right inside the entrance. She speaks to you in a soft and respectful tone with her hands together in front of her as you approach.
" The Monument welcomes you back, Master Guests. Is there anything I may do to assist you before returning to your room? "
" Yes, actually. "
Tom says as he looks behind you at the entrance that the three of you came from.
" Can you get us unrestricted access to the rooms in a club down the street called The Devil's Den? "
Amy nods her head as she responds.
" Of course, Master Guest. I'll see what I can do. Is there anything else? "
Tom leans forward and asks her another question discreetly.
" How were Roary and Mimi while we were gone? Did everything go smoothly? "
Amy nods her head again as she responds.
" Yes. I would say that everything went smoothly. They kept themselves entertained by playing a few games in the penthouse together like hide-and-seek and eye spy. I have footage from our surveillance system if you'd like to see how things went for yourself. Would you like me to show you? "
Tom shakes his head respectfully as he replies.
" No, it's quite alright. We'll be headed up to our room now. "
" Of course, Master Guest. The elevator is ready and waiting to take you up to your suite. If you have any requests, simply ask for me and I'll make my way up there to assist you. "
Amy says as she motions towards the elevator as its doors open.
" Thank you, Amy. "
Tom says before he leads you and Gareth towards the elevator. Once you're inside, you hear a voice shout from out in the lobby.
" I SAID WAIT FOR ME!! "
You turn around to see Reylesh bursting through the main entrance to The Monument and running towards the elevator.
As she runs through the lobby, the security officers immediately take action and shoot her with bolas that wrap around her small legs and torso before electrocuting her. She moans loudly as she falls to the floor, immobilized, and several armed men surround her before grabbing her arm to stand her up and point their rifles in her face. Reylesh taunts them as she knocks her knees and you can see arousal fluid running down her leg from under her dress.
" If you're gonna tie me up and shock me at gunpoint, you boys better at least have a little fun and make me- "
Amy interrupts as she gives orders to the security officers.
" Escort her outside! If she trespasses here again, you have authorization to take her down to the lower level for indoctrination. "
" Hold on. "
Tom says as he reaches out and stops the elevator doors from closing.
" She's with us. "
Reylesh quickly snaps her vision towards Tom and looks at him with mischievous eyes as the security officers let her go and deactivate the bolases around her. Her bindings loosen and drop to the floor before Amy turns to Tom and bows remorsefully.
" My apologies, Master Guest. She wasn't on our roster, so we treated her like an intruder. This seems to have been a misunderstanding, and I would completely understand if you believe the way she was treated was uncalled for. If you wish to punish me, please don't hesitate in giving me orders. I'll perform any act that you believe is justified as compensation for us treating her harshly, if you so desire. "
Reylesh doesn't skip a beat as she immediately runs up to Amy and grabs her tie like it's a leash and gets in her face, barking orders at Amy like she's a dog.
" Yeah, you bitch!! How about you get down on your knees and clean my foot with your mouth!! "
Reylesh yells as she takes her small foot with painted red toenails out of her high heel. Amy obediently gets down on her knees and sits on her legs like a servant before grabbing Reylesh's foot without hesitation and opening her mouth.
" That's enough, Reylesh! Get in the fucking elevator! Amy, you don't have to do that. "
Tom says sternly before both girls look at him and Reylesh lets go of Amy's tie. Reylesh smiles innocently as she puts her shoe back on and happily walks into the elevator joining the three of you. Amy stands up from the floor and speaks to Tom.
" Of course, Master Guest. If you had something else in mind for my punishment, then I'll gladly do whatever you ask of me. "
Amy says as she bows her head again with closed eyes.
" That won't be necessary. You were simply doing your job by protecting The Monument. Thank you for keeping everyone safe, Amy. "
Amy opens her eyes and looks down at the ground with a confused but emotional glare before standing back up straight. You can tell that she doesn't normally receive compassion and forgiveness when she makes a mistake, and by the look on her face, you can tell that she's starting to admire Tom because of the way he treats her. Her eyes begin to water as she responds to Tom in a shaky voice.
" You're welcome, Master Guest… If there's anything else I can do for you… don't hesitate to request my assistance… "
Tom nods his head with a look of content as the elevator doors close and the elevator starts ascending to the 437th floor. The elevator is silent for a moment before Tom speaks up in a serious tone, looking down at Reylesh.
" I need you to behave yourself when you're in Mimi's presence. She's only a human child, but she's important to Donny. If you do anything to compromise her safety or well-being, I'm sure Donny wouldn't hesitate to tear your physical form to pieces. "
Reylesh looks up at Tom with a smile, then looks over at you and sees that you're giving her a cold stare. Her smile instantly fades into a look of nervousness as she responds to Tom.
" Okay… I was gonna joke about it, but on second thought, I think I shouldn't piss off the guy who has a track record of killing gods to protect little girls. "
You continue to stare at Reylesh coldly as she turns back around. She's obviously referencing the time when you killed those gods in order to get stronger so you could protect Rosie. Now that you think about it, the killing of gods is exactly what you're trying to prevent right now. The monsters that you're trying to stop are doing the exact same thing that you once did after losing Ariel. Does being The Lamenter make you no better than the Valghuli that you're trying to fight against? Were there people just like you now who tried to stop you in the past? If The One hadn't erased your memories, then perhaps you could have a better understanding of what actually happened back then.
The elevator then abruptly stops and the lights in the elevator shut off before dim red emergency lights turn on. Tom looks around, scanning the elevator and the floors outside the elevator with his Trap Sight. Gareth immediately starts inspecting the screen used to choose which floor to go to and Reylesh yawns as if she couldn't care less about what's happening around her.
Suddenly a man's voice begins to talk through the speakers in the elevator.
" Holy fucking fuck!! I'm in this bitch!! Haha!! The Monument's firewall was a pain in the ass but I got it!! Hello?! Can you fuckers hear me!? "
Tom answers the voice as he continues to look around.
" Yeah, these fuckers can hear you. Why'd you stop our elevator? "
" Cause I wanted to talk to you, silly guy!! It's not every day that Otherlanders show up here in Voldoor. Let's just say, I uhhh… require your assistance with something in particular. "
The voice says in a goofy demeanor. Suddenly the screen in the elevator glitches out and shows the location of a building on the outskirts of the city. The voice speaks again.
" Meet me here and we can discuss our terms of business. "
Everyone in the elevator looks at the screen and Tom answers the voice.
" No thanks. We're here on business of our own and we can't afford any distractions. "
" Come on!! I really need you guys!! I don't think there's anyone else that can do this for me!! Not even a Minder!! "
The voice pleads. Tom stands firm in his decision as he answers.
" Sorry. The stuff on our plate right now is too important for us to get sidetracked. "
" Ugh!! What a fucking joke!! Fine!! Guess I'll just have to waste your time anyways then!! Have fun being stuck in that elevator, losers!! "
The voice says in a childish tone.
" It would be wise not to cross us. "
Tom says calmly.
" Fuck you. "
The voice says before the elevator returns to normal and sits stationary. Everyone remains silent for a moment, then Reylesh breaks the silence by throwing herself onto Tom and starts rubbing his chest with her small hands.
" Oh no! It appears that we're stuck on this elevator together! I'm just a poor little lady locked in here with three strong men! It would be soooo terrible if you guys took advantage of me because nobody could come and save me!! "
Tom pushes her off of him and she hits her head on the wall of the elevator before falling to the ground.
" Can you not be a whore for once? Nobody here wants to fuck around with you. "
Reylesh rubs her head as she replies to Tom.
" So you like to be rough with your women, huh, Tom? I like that! Shove me harder!! "
She yells as she gets up and goes for Tom's belt. Tom simply uses his telekinetic power to hold Reylesh and push her into a corner. She tries to break free from his telekinetic grasp but her body is completely frozen still. She bitches and whines as she tries to move her body to no avail.
" Hey! That isn't fair! What is this?! Why can't I move!? Lemme go!! "
Tom then looks at you with an exhausted expression as he speaks to you while she complains in the background.
" I'm starting to understand why you're so rude to her, Donny. "
You shrug your shoulders as you look up at the elevator door and respond with a slight smile.
" Just wait until she pretends to be your dead wife. "
Reylesh continues to bitch and cry in the background.
" Hey?! Are you ignoring me!? Let me go!! "
Gareth leans forward as he talks to Tom quietly.
" So, Tom, what's our next move? "
