[Moments after the fight, Hydro sat down and rested, exhausted from the fight. All the Decorations were fine, but the rail ones were ruined. The Mitchell Family ran onto Hydro, seeing him sitting on the floor. They finally approached Hydro.]

ELECTROMAN: Hydro, [heavy breathing] are you okay?

HYDRO: Yeah... I'm... fine.

ELECTROMAN: Where's the other guy?

HYDRO: I stopped him.

ELECTROMAN: Did he get away?

[S.H.I.R.O responded in the worst moment.]

S.H.I.R.O: Hydro! There's an enemy nearby to your party! You've got to stop him! He's at the forest right now and you gotta go!

HYDRO: IN THE WORST MOMENT?!

ELECTROMAN: Uhm, who's that?

HYDRO: Oh uh, I don't know. Look, I gotta roll, I got company.

[Hydro stood up and ran to the forest. Rick is saying some sort of hunting thing.]

ELECTROMAN: Man he's such a one man show...

THE FOREST - ARRIVAL

[With quick reflexes, he disarms the assailant, but a new threat emerges in the form of a samurai wielding a red katana. This samurai, named Sam, boasts ultramodern military armor and cyborg enhancements. As Sam swiftly unsheathes his sword, a confrontation ensues between him and Hydro.]

SAM: Care if I join the party?

HYDRO: [startled] JETSTREAM Sam... you-

SAM: Hush...

HYDRO (INNER DIALOGUE): A character from a game is taking me on? What's with that strange aura?

S.H.I.R.O: Hydro, this is problematic. We've just encountered Samuel Rodriguez from Metal Gear Rising: REVENGEANCE, a fictional character. However, there's an unusual aura around him, invisible to regular observers. I've analyzed his words and actions, but I can't determine his motives.

SAM: Nice to see you. An E-Rank hunter eh?

HYDRO: Hunter? You're aware of it?

SAM: [chuckles] Well, not if you put it that way.

HYDRO (INNER DIALOGUE): The moment I don't have free time... Fun, enjoyment, and nothing but just fights. If this can be the last one, I will be at peace.

[Hydro... quickly goes backwards, when he encounters Sam. Onto his right eye, Hydro cannot believe Sam had a strange aura, The Necronomicon Corpse. Apparently ancient human remains; the Corpse Parts are first described as belonging to a saint, miraculously self-preserving, and disposed to imparting miraculous powers, in the style of certain evil relics. Although never confirmed as such, they're heavily implied to belong to The Book.]

SAM: The Necronomicon Corpse, and the war is the ultimate reward! On Earth, Desperados become vessels for The Necronomicon Corpse. If they resist, well, we either eliminate them or make them hosts. Listen, Golden Child, you have a choice. Join us, or join them. We can lead a life hunting demons. How about it? Now, hand over that thing or savor the sweetest crimson treat.
