*More black blobs then fly out of the rifts in space and turn into comets with arms*

Ceri: The look is probably just a distraction...

Hiriko: *Walks towards then calmly* I heard the noise. What happened-

Yomi: WATCH OUT-

*The comets then crash into Hiriko's spacecraft and blow it into smithereens as screams from inside the flames can be heard*

Vesta: *Eyes widen* So many gone...

Yomi: I-In such a short time...

Hiriko: W-what-... *She falls down to her knees* D-d-did that just happen... O-o-or am I in a nightmare... T-this can't be happening... N-No...

Yomi: *Quickly composed herself* Everyone! Inside the dungeon! Now!

*As the resting monster girls walk out of the small houses of the villages, they look around*

Boar: W-what happened? Why did you call us so suddenly?

Slime: Yeah... What gives?

Yomi: There's no time, just get into the Sakura Dungeon, NOW!

*A larger blob then falls onto the ground and transforms into a giant KFP Chicken which starts running through the village and crushing several monster girls under it's foot*

Ceri: No, no, no! *Readies her sword and charges forward* Stop that at once!

Yomi: Ceri be careful-!

*The KFP Chicken then simply kicks Ceri away with ease and leaves her heavily wounded and bleeding*

Yomi: *Catches her* Everyone! Please! Get inside now! *Raises her hand and fires a beam of lighting towards the large KFP Chicken*

*The KFP Chicken simply brushes it off as it continues to run rampant*

Yomi: *Her pupils shrink immensely as she screams at the top of her lungs* EVERYONE! GET INSIDE! NOW!

*In a panic, all the monster girls around the area rush back into the dungeon*

Yomi: Ceri, Ceri! Wake up! Come on, we'll get you healed back up.

Ceri: B-but...

Yomi: No buts. Just, please! *Carries her and brings her into the Sakura Dungeon* keep watch of her and her condition. I'll just wait for the rest to come in.

*As everyone panics into the Sakura Dungeon, Hiriko still kneels Infront of her burning spacecraft*

Hiriko: They're all... they're all... they're all gone... A-arent they..?

Vesta: Come on let's go! *Grabs Hiriko and tries to pulls her away*

Hiriko: No... no! No! No! Please no! Let me stay! Let me die with them! I don't want to live without them! They may just be subordinates, but I've been with them long enough to call them family!

Vesta: Your being delusional! Come on! You still have the chance to live!

Hiriko: Please! Please! Please-

Sylvi: *Knocks Hiriko out with a sleeping spell* That should do.

Vesta: *Carries her on her shoulders* Come on, let's go. We need to get in as soon as possible! *Rushes into the Sakura Dungeon*

Sylvi: Right. *Rushes into the Sakura Dungeon with her*

Yomi: Quick, quick, quick!

Sylvi: *Jumps down the stairs and enters the entrance of the Sakura Dungeon* Quickly! Vesta!

Vesta: I know!

*Several Takodachi then notice Vesta and start moving towards her*

Vesta: FRICK! *Starts running as fast as she can* Why do you have to weight so much-

*A black blob appears beside her as it transforms into a deadbeat and grabs one of Vesta's wings before tearing it off*

Vesta: *Vomits out blood and stumbles forward* G-Geez...

Yomi: No! Vesta! Hiriko! *Runs out and grabs Vesta and Hiriko* Your safe with me! I'll make sure no one else gets hurt!

Sylvi: Yomi! You'll get yourself killed!!!

Yomi: Not... Not on my watch!! *Pulls out a Warp Stone from her cleavage*

Sylvi: *Her face turns bright red* WHY DO YOU EVEN HAVE THAT THERE!?

Yomi: *Sighs* Just Incase! Go! Work already!

*A blue light shines as the three of them teleport into the Sakura Dungeon*

Yomi: *Lays both Vesta and Hiriko down* We're all in! Close it! Close it! Now!

*A female monk walks forward and begins chanting*

Monk: Enchanted Seal, Sacred Seal, Eternal Seal, Close the gates and let all intrusion be halted.

*A seal is then engraved into the entrance of the Sakura Dungeon as the gates close*

Vesta: That was... close...

Sylvi: Tell me about it.

Yomi: Holy hell... *Sits down and puts her hands on her hand* What just happened....

Ceri: Y-Yomi..?

Vesta: *Stares at Yoni* Huh? Is... is something wrong..?

Sylvi: Speak to me Yomi, what is the problem!?

Yomi: W-what was that..!? W-why didn't I see that coming!? S-so many of them died...

Ceri: W-we didn't see it coming either! It's not your fault! It's all our fault! Not just you!

Yomi: B-But... s-so many died... I-I couldn't stop that... My magic didn't do anything... I-I was too weak...

Ceri: I couldn't do anything either... It's not just your fault Yomi.

Yomi: *Starts sobbing* N-No... I-it is my fault... I-I let this happen... I-If only I've been more alert, more aware, more powerfu-

Anubis: *Steps forward and puts her hand on Yomi's shoulder* Enough. Friend. Please. Calm yourself, I didn't notice it either. Please, just, please. For everyone else.

Yomi: B-B-but-! I-I failed them! What kind of a-

Ceri: Please, *Sits up* You can't do it alone. Just, please. Calm yourself.

Sylvi: You have us. You can rely on us. *Wipes off some of Yomi's tears*

Yomi: *Sniffles* C-Can I really..?

Anubis: Of course you can. Just like how we relied on you once.

Yomi: *Looks up and wipes her tears off* R-right... W-we have to keep everyone safe! O-o-or mourning will have to wait... We can mourn... a-and cry after this is all over... *Slowly stands up and composes herself* Everyone, we have to evacuate everyone in all levels down. All the way to the abyss.

Anubis: *Tilts her head in surprise* The abyss? Are you sure?

Yomi: *Takes a deep breathe* Yes. I'm sure. I've befriended everyone there. We can trust them. We just have to explain them the situation.

Anubis: If you say so, Yomi.

Yomi: Everyone, let's go. *A fire can be seen in her eyes as she is determined to save as many people as she can, to do better than the start*

*Everyone nods in agreement as they start moving deeper into the Sakura Dungeon*
