Changing Gear of Fate

Scenario 1

Mismatched Gold and Dark eyes watched through the screens. Each screen shows different Channels.

He closed off Channel to carriage 3707. He's sick of that carriage.

Jihye seems to be handling the first scenario... okay. Not well, but she survived, and that was what mattered.

Lee Seolhwa... she seems to be managing. For now. It would be later when her fate, either as enemy or ally, is decided.

Anna Croft... nope. He will watch the recording later, when her presence become necessary, but Secretive Plotter is not going to torment himself watching that manipulative bitch.

Now, all that was left was Kim Namwoon and Lee Hyunsung. Though he know how it would go—

"Wait. This is carriage 3807, right?" 222 suddenly asks.

"Yes?" Secretive Plotter replied. "Why?"

"Then why is Yoo Joonghyuk riding that carriage and not the one next door?!"

...huh?

"Where?" 333 shoves 222 off to watch the remaining screen. "Wait you're right. Did he ride the wrong carria—HOLY SHIT IS THAT MIA?!"

Wait. WHAT?!

Alarmed, Secretive Plotter pay utmost attention to the screen. His eyes rounded behind the hood when he saw this Worldline Yoo Joonghyuk (which regression is this?) supporting an admittedly pretty man with Mia sitting next to him.

The (former?) Regressor had to rub his eyes to ensure he didn't hallucinate. The scene stays the same.

"What the fuck?" 81 asked out loud. A sentiment shared among them.

They do not remember any regression where Yoo Joonghyuk and Yoo Mia have stayed together since the very first scenario.

"What's the plan?" Yoo Joonghyuk asked. Paying no attention to the chaotic atmosphere around them.

And they clearly don't remember any regression where Yoo Joonghyuk relies on someone. Certainly not in the very first scenario.

The pretty man frowned. He then took out a hand sanitizer and began to rub it.

"Dokja-ssi, what are you doing?" The OL next to him asked.

"Trying to see if bacteria count as living organisms. Turns out not." The pretty man replied.

"Huh?"

"The mission. It said to kill a living being. It never said we have to kill people. Bacteria is considered as a living thing, but maybe there's some requirement."

The N'Gai forest turns silent.

Then a loud thumping sound can be heard as 38 bashed his head against the throne.

"Why" THUNK "Did" THUNK "I" THUNK "Never" THUNK "Think" THUNK "Of" THUNK "THAT?!"

Yes.

1863 regressions and never did they try to find an alternative method. They mean, sure, the carriage doesn't have any living creatures aside from humans, but shouldn't they at least try instead of jumping on a murder spree?

Lee Hyunsung showed up and tried to instill some order. 41 sighed at his naivety. While he has good intentions, his method is all wrong. Especially when the train goers watch the video conference, huh now that he thinks of it he never knows what the country leader was doing, only to see the Prime Minister get murdered by a pissed-off Dokkaebi.

Murder cotton ball.

The consequences of pissing off Dokkaebi was shortened to 10 minutes only. Ouch.

Then Dokkaebi shows what happens in the other places. Including Lee Jihye's.
