"No, my brother just gave me, a civilian completely unrelated to any of this, full access to this military AI." she answered, not taking her eyes off the screen. The others could faintly hear the music coming from her headphones.

"... Look, just let me concentrate for a moment. Ya-ong is delicate..."


"You... You gonna explain, or?" Mei asks, probably slightly reluctantly.

Mao’s head bopped slightly to the music from the headphones. He quickly stopped and silently scolded his autonomic system for insubordination.

"Yang. Ya-ong. You know, like a cat." Amethyst explained the least important part of this situation.

Unfortunately the Chinese onomatopoeia for a cat's meow (miāo) does not sound even remotely like the Korean one (ya-ong), so the explanation made even less sense.

She didn't take her eyes off the screen. "... What's there to even explain? You need me to say it outright? Yes, I made Yang."

"Didn't your brother take credit for that?" Mei asks. "Just who are you?"

That made her pause for a moment. She considered her next words very carefully, like she was dreading and hoping when the moment to say all this would come.

"... I don't have a brother. Never had one."

"Isn't it obvious by now? I'm private Kwon."

“What the-?!” Mao shouted in horror. “T-That’s absurd! Blasphemous! Are you even a woman?”

"I figured that was the case some time back, yeah," Sun Taikong said with a nod, shooting a glare at General Mao. "It wasn't something I felt like needed saying though."

"Yes!" was the immediate response. She even got up and pried her eyes away from the monitor to look right at Mao. "Look at me. What do I look like? Idiot."

Dr. Uwem's eyes widen in surprise when Amethyst revealed that she is actually private Kwon.

"I didn't know that Amethyst was private Kwon. What a surprise!" He said as he processed the revelation.

It took every instinct inside of Mao to not get violent with this woman, but he instead steadied his breath and approached her, clearly attempting to intimidate. “So you created Yang. And this is just... a coincidence? Your involvement in this game goes no further?”

Amethyst stood her ground, even as she had to look up to face Mao. "I'm just another player. I lost Ya-ong and all contact with her the same day you did, I had nothing to do with her being in this game."

"And if that's not enough for you, now I'm trying to see if she can be the key to our escape."

Mao didn’t believe a word of this for a second. Unfortunately, this woman held all the cards. They had no alternative method of escape besides the bomb which was a risk, so he had no choice but to let her lead the way.

"If Yang controls the Gates, maybe she can turn off the Afterlife Gate!" Sun Taikong said.

Mei opened her mouth after a long pause as if to interject, but then stops in utter disbelief as Mao questions her a bit more. At the end of that, she mutters a "What the fuck...?".

"... Now, if I may, I want to know what they did to my Ya-ong, and how I can fix that..." Amethyst said, turning away from Mao and taking back her seat at the monitor.

Fujisaki scratched his ear and just blankly stared at one of the monitors. It seems like this computer stuff was too much for him...

"How long will that take?" Sun Taikong asked testily, her wording making him a little wary. "We don't need to fix the thing, right? Isn't it enough to just hack Yang to shut down the Afterlife Gate?"

Deciding that it would be best to leave Amethyst on her own, as she’d requested, the group leaves the server room and spreads through the facility.



The group gathers in the entrance hall. A while later, Amethyst emerges. She goes to approach them, but she doesn’t look particularly pleased.

“I’m afraid I’m no closer to turning off that gate,” Amethyst says, “I found some other information though. First of all, that bomb. It’s real, and it packs quite a punch. Easily enough to destroy that entire playroom. Probably not the rest of the building, but I’m still not sure detonating it is a good idea.”

“So it wasn’t just a fake?” Juanli asked, “Cat really tried…to blow up my son?”

“And the rest of us in Suyin’s group too, if we’d gotten betrayed,” Mao adds.

“Even if we know that Amethyst created Yang, that doesn’t mean Cat’s player isn’t among us still,” Amandi adds, “In fact, it makes it seem even more likely. Yang’s earlier message could have been meant to distract us by turning our attention to Cat’s creator rather than the one who repurposed it.”

“In that case, I bet they’re still here too,” Juanli says, “They don’t need to escape, since they have control over the game. In fact, they probably wanted to stay to make sure their twisted game continues!”

“That’s definitely possible,” Amethyst replies, “Yang keeps a record of interactions with its interface, like our responses to the Wood Battle puzzles and the like. I didn’t notice anyone attempting to do interfere with Yang’s programming remotely, so they likely did all their work here.”

“Wait, you know how people voted during the Wood Battle?” Juanli asks.

“Err…well, yes. But I’m not sure it’s worth mentioning.”

“If Cat’s here, they probably would have chosen to betray us!” Juanli shouts, “If you know something, it’s certainly worth discussing.”

“I really don’t—”

“Either you tell me, or I’ll go have a look myself!”

Amethyst sighs and turns away from her.

“Okay, fine. Fujisaki betrayed. That’s it. Happy?”

As Amethyst walks back to the server room, Juanli turns and points a finger at Fujisaki.

“I knew it,” she shouts, “I knew you went against our plan!”

The man eyes her warily and backs away.

“Okay, perhaps I did. Does it really matter now?” he asks.

“You scorched my sister, then you tried to kill her and my son…and I bet you’re the reason we’re all locked up in the first place!” she shouts, “I’ll give you what you deserve!”

She grabs the sledgehammer from where Amethyst had left it and runs toward him, swinging it wide. Fujisaki leaps out of the way, but when the hammer slams down on the floor he lets out a scream like he was struck in the jaw.

“Look, can we all just calm down?” Taikong says pleadingly, stepping over to grab the hammer from Juanli.

Fujisaki doesn’t respond. He keeps staring at the floor, draconic rage forming on his face.

“Y-You monster!” he shouts, “Look at what you’ve done! She had nothing to do with any of this!”

Silence falls across the room as everyone stares dumbfounded at Fujisaki.

“But…she didn’t do anything,” Mei mumbles.

“Weren’t you watching? She killed her! She fucking killed her!” he roars, “And don’t try to tell me you can’t see her body!”

The group looks at the ground where the hammer had been lying. Just a bunch of clean tiles—

A woman in green lay on the floor, blood streaking from her head like petals on a flower—

They didn’t see anything there at all.

Mei looks to Fujisaki, then to the spot on the floor. "There's like... nothing there, though?" She lightly kicks the hammer on the floor for emphasis.

"What the fuck are you talking about!?" Fujisaki shouts loudly, glaring at Mei. "What's wrong with all of you!? Are you all mad!?" Fujisaki, red with rage, falls to his knees, and begins to mumble to himself silently.

"Fujisaki, you remember what we were saying about Spectre Syndrome, right?" Sun Taikong said, trying to placate the man. "There's nothing there. Just dust and tiles." He steadily drew closer, perhaps intending to lay a calming hand on his shoulder.

"Fujisaki, please calm down. She- she didn't mean to do that!" Amethyst said, though she moved farther from the man, not closer like Sun. "Is it... That bad...? Maybe we can help her?"

Juanli twitches with fury, Fujisaki seeming even more pathetic as he grieves over nothing. With a grunt she heaves the hammer's handle to the side tossing it away. "I don't know what you're playing at anymore bastard but I just can't...I've had enough of your madness." she cursed through gritted teeth "We had an answer, we were going to get out, why would you betray? You're insane!"

Dr. Uwem stares in shock as it was revealed that Amethyst killed Snake.

"Hmmm... I see. This is definitely the work of parallel timelines." The doctor mumbles to himself. "If Fujisaki can only see Snake in this timelines... Then the opposite must also be true; in Snake's timeline, only she can see Fujisaki..."

It seems like the doctor is still working a theory out in his head.

Mei winces a bit at the shouting, grimacing slightly. Nonetheless, she slowly makes her way over to Fujisaki, making sure to stay behind Taikong. "It's just like he said. It's empty there."

She then turns to Juanli, "We can solve that in a minute. Just hold the fuck up for a second, unless you want a repeat of the clusterfuck from earlier."

Fujisaki ignores the others and stands up again, trembling with rage.

"You! You killed her!" He spat at Juanli's direction. "A quarter of us escaped, to get help! And yet you still killed her! Like each of us, she was trapped and afraid, scared for her life! You leave her trapped in the stall in the washrooms, and then this!?"

"Why? Whyt!? What did she ever do to you!? All of you!" Fujisaki glances frantically around at the others, starting at each for no more than a second before staring down Juanli once again. "Do none of you care? Are all of you in on it? Trapping us here, and treating us like this!? Watching her die before our eyes, and daring to pretend nothing is wrong?"

"I want an answer! Why!?"

Mao had had enough. He grabbed Fujisaki’s shoulders, staring him dead in the eyes. “There’s, Nobody. There. She. Isn’t. Real!” He roughly shook him to punctuate the sentence. “This isn’t a goddamn game!”

Juanli gave Fujisaki a withering look, her rage fading into pity at this clearly insane man. "He needs to be restrained or sedated, he's just going to hurt somebody, AGAIN." she spat taking further steps away "Maybe there's something in the medical room that could help calm him down."

"Dammit Fujisaki, listen to us!" Sun Taikong snapped, moving behind him while he was dealing with General Mao to grab him from under the shoulders and restrain him. "You already betrayed us once, don't make this situation even worse than it already is!"

Fujisaki struggles against Taikong and continues to shout at Juanli. "She didn't deserve this! How dare you!"

"Hey-- this isn't how you fucking handle-- urgh!" Mei complains, taking a quick look around. She settles on looking at Uwem, raising her tone to a more urgent one. "Doctor?! Any fucking clue what we wanna do here?!"

Sun Taikong was finding it quite difficult to restrain a person this way when the man in question had one arm. After a few more moments struggling, a stray blow from Fujisaki was enough to knock Taikong back and onto the ground. "Fuck, this is going nowhere!" he said, getting to his feet but keeping a wary distance from Fujisaki. "Just listen to us for a moment, will you?"

Mao clicked his tongue in frustration, nearly doubling over. He nearly attacked Fujisaki again, but then looked over at the floor where ‘Snake’ was.

“My god.” Mao shook his head in disbelief. “I’m sorry I didn’t believe you before Mr. Fujisaki. I can see her.”

"Huh..." Dr. Uwem said, seemingly surprised by Mao admitting that he can see Snake. "I thought that only Fujisaki can see Snake...? Just what is going on?"

The doctor then looks towards the spot where the sledgehammer have struck; trying to figure out what was happening.

“What?!” Fujisaki snaps out of his rage and kneels down on the floor.

“Are you...?” He mutters and goes quiet. Those close by could see some tears roll down his face. The rest of his words are in Japanese, and softly spoken, as if only he and the Snake player could hear them.

“Just keep pressure on it.” Mao softly reassured, almost too believably. He clutched Fujisaki’s shoulder with reassurance. “Keep her head up.”

He slowly pulled himself away, picking the hammer up without a sound. Fujisaki couldn’t notice him, in a far away place. Mao raised the hammer over his shoulder, then taking a silent breath...

Swung it down.

There was a loud CRACK as it impacted his head, but Mao deliberately didn’t use all his strength, intending to only render the man unconscious.
