[Meanwhile, over here, Chie is alone with Jin, in an area resembling Stonehenge.] [Go ahead and do stuff.] Chie looks over at Jin and sighs. "Okay, fine. Well, if you feel anything remotely resembling an important question, or any sort of question at all, you just let me know." In the meantime... I'm just gonna... try and find my way out of here. Yeah. Would help if I had some sort of idea as to where the hell I'm supposed to be going, though. "Okay. After you do, you need to go back to Kanghua Enterprises. Go down this time. Wait, what? Go back? When? Now? After I get back to the others? "Uh.... I'm not sure." That's what I figured. Well, unless I start dreaming or hallucinating or whatever that I'm back at Kanghua, I'll assume that it's after I get back to the others. "Okay." Now... where the hell *am* I supposed to be going? * Chie begins looking at the stone pillars, hoping to find some sort of sign or indication as to where her path lies. "I'm not sure. * Chie glances back at Jin for a second. "Do you have any idea how you got here, or are you not sure about that, either?" "Oh. I drove." Really? Where's the car? "I don't own one." Then how'd you drive? (So there's a Haruko wandering around in here too? :P) "I'm not sure." Then how do you... forget it. * Chie continues looking for a way out. Or away. "Okay." Lessee... the sun rises in the east, and sets in the west, and moss grows on the south side of trees... or something... dammit. I'm not sure if I'm even really *at* Stonehenge. And I have no clue where it is relative to, well, anything. [Chie finds a door.] Well. How 'bout that? * Chie calls over her shoulder to Jin. "Found somethin'! You coming?" "Nah. I'm going to play hockey." ...right. You go have fun, then! Eat chicken and whatnot. "Okay." * Chie opens the door! [Chie is sucked through!] [Behind the door is a great black round creature with teeny tiny ovals for hands and feet, really small wings, two big eyes and a wide smile.] ( Gimme a mind - videogames roll ^^ ) Waaaaahaaa- oof. (I actually made that. ;p) [It's Fernandez!] Hey. I've seen you before. You're a game character. Fernandez, right? God, my subconscious is screwed up. [The rest of the surroundings are non-existant. It's a sheet of nothingness. Except for a fax machine on a desk to the side of Fernandez, which prints something out.] * Chie cranes her neck to get a better view of the fax machine. "They get fax service in Limbo or whatever this is? I'm impressed." [The letter on the fax machine says: "I'm the last one. I'm filling in for Enma, lord of hell."] Lord of hell? Aww, c'mon, am I really *that* bad? * Chie gives Fernandez her most winning smile, which, considering he's a giant black ball, probably doesn't do much. [Fernandez smiles wider. (I mean, Jeezus, look at that thing)] * Chie grins nervously. "Okay. What do I gotta do here?" [Fernandez makes some nonsense sounds, and the fax machine prints something else out: "I can bring you to your power. Just take my hand." He holds out one of the bits that obviously must mean his hands.] All right. * Chie takes Fernandez's hand-bit-thing. * Chie takes a deep breath. "Lead on." [Chie reaches for Frenandez's hand, and is suddenly pulled back! She watches as he becomes more and more diminished.] Wait!
