Jacob slides down the giant crater to see Elizabeth wholly burnt to a crisp.
Jacob: "ELIZABEEEETH!!"
Jacob picks up Elizabeth's now burnt body.
Jacob: "COME ON, COME ON, YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE US LIKE THIS! YOU'RE TOUGHER THAN THIS! YOU CAN'T JUST-"
Elizabeth slowly lifts her arm and puts her hand on Jacob's cheek.
Elizabeth: "You...don't...need...me..."
Banishment runs down the crater to witness the sight of Jacob and Elizabeth.
Jacob continues to have tears drop run down his face.
Elizabeth: "You...can...do...this...you're...tougher...then...you...think...you...are..."
Jacob: "I'm sorry...I'M SO SORRY-"
Elizabeth: "Don't...be...remember.."
Elizabeth gives Jacob a big smile.
Elizabeth: "You...still...owe...me...a...coffee..."
Elizabeth's body cracks and disperses into dust.
Banishment watches the dust crumble into nothing.
Banishment: "Goodbye...friend."
Jacob drops his arms and falls to his knees.
Yuji checks up on Ashlyn and N.
Yuji: "Hey, hey! come on."
Ashlyn slowly wakes up and sits up.
Ashlyn: "Did we win?"
Yuji: "Yeah...you did it!"
Yuji hugs Ashlyn.
Ashlyn looks over to see N waking up.
N: "Everything hurts..."
Everyone else comes out of the rubble and gathers around N and Ashlyn.
Jizzabelle: "Good job, you two!"
Cassandra: "You sure did kick some ass back there you crazy bastards!"
Ashlyn: "Haha...no no it was nothing."
Yuji: "ARE YOU KIDDING?! YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY KICK SOME ASS. THAT WIERD LOOKING SLUSHY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS COMING!"
Everyone chuckles in response.
N: "I'm still in pain."
Cassandra: "OH SUCK IT UP EDGY SPIKE!"
N: "Why do you keep calling me tha-"
Cassandra slaps N's stomach.
N: "AAAAAAAAAAHaaaa...wow."
Tatsuki: "Well...that was a lot...now what?"
Banishment walks out of the crater and stands in front of the group.
Banishment: "Good job Everyone. Now then, let's get you all patched up and celebrate."
Tatsuki: "Will there be beer?"
Banishment: "Are you of age?"
Tatsuki: "Hey, if I'm going out, at least I'm not going out sober."
Cassandra: "How about we get patched up first cause you know...kinda burning up over here"
Yuji: "Yeah! best we should head back so Elizabeth can patch us up in no time!"
Banishment says nothing.
Ashlyn looks over at Banishment with a face of concern.
Ashlyn gets flashbacks of Elizabeth shoving her away.
Ashlyn thinks: "Was I just seeing things or was that-"
Tatsuki: "WELL?! WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?! LET'S FUCKING PARTY WOOO!! ow-arm still in pain."
Banishment opens a rift as everyone slowly enters one by one while N is still lying on the ground.
N: "Welp..."
Cassandra comes out of the rift.
Cassandra: "Sorry about that edgy spike! come on now, let's get out of here."
N: "Thanks, quirky whore-"
Cassandra: "WHAT WAS THAT?!"
N: "Nothing."
N Thinks: "Can't hide from the truth though.."
Cassandra carries N on her back and re-enters the rift.
Jacob is still sitting in the crater created by the goopy omen while looking at his hands.
Jacob falls to all fours and screams at the top of his lungs.
Jacob: "DAMN IT ALL!!!! I CAN'T SAVE ANYONE sniffs FUUUUUCCCK!!!"
??: "It's ok."
Jacob lifts his head up from the sound of such a familiar voice.
A white woman in a simple white dress with blue hair and blue is standing across from Jacob.
Jacob: "A-Ava? how did-"
Ava: "I'm sorry, I really wished I could have told you but sadly I was in a different form than what you love to see haha."

Jacob's eyes widen in shock.
Jacob: "Y-you were the-"
Ava: "I'm afraid that I only have so much time. I really wanted to-"
Suddenly, Jacob runs over to Ava and hugs her.
Jacob: "Drop all the formal shit and just huge me damn it!"
Ava lets a single tear run down her face.
Ava: "What have you done to yourself, you stupid fuck!"
Jacob: "I tried everything, but I'm still slowly losing everything. What do I do?"
Ava: "It's like you said, you can't sugarcoat the apocalypse but that doesn't mean you can just be brutal to everyone! Jesus Jay Jay!"
Jacob: "I thought it would-"
Ava karate chops Jacob's head.
Ava: "IT DIDN'T! >:("
Jacob: "I'm still stupid, huh?"
Ava: "You are! but that doesn't mean you can't change...sure it will take a while but it will happen if you put in enough effort!"
Jacob: "You really think I can change."
Ava: "You can! you're a good person, Jacob, you just refuse to fix yourself."
Ava walks over to Jacob and points at his heart.
Ava: "Sometimes you have to think from here. and not-"
Ava moves her finger to point at Jacob's head.
Ava: "Here."
Jacob: "More of the heart than the brain huh?"
Ava: "Also who's this Elizabeth girl? Are you cheating on me? :("
Jacob: "WHAT?! no no no she was...the one who saved us from...whatever explosion you caused."
Ava: "Hmm...I mean hey, she may be gone but at least she'll live in everyone's memory, or rather you and Banishment's memory."
Jacob: "Yeah...but it still hurts a little."
Ava: "Oh, MAN UP you little crybaby haha."
Ava looks at her legs as it begins to fade away.
Ava: "Aw man, I guess I don't have much time left."
Jacob: "W-wait where are you going?"
Ava: "Well, if there's an afterlife out there that's where I'm headed."
Ava's feet start lighting on fire as blue flames start running up her body.
Ava: "Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone, got it?"
Jacob clenches his chest area.
Jacob: "Promise."
Ava: "Haha I hope so...goodbye Jacob, I love you."
Ava disappears with the blue flames then a necklace with a star symbol drops onto the ground.
Jacob slowly picks up the star necklace and wears it.
Jacob: "I loved you too."
??: "Well that was a lot wasn't it?"
Jacob turns around to see Elizabeth sitting on the ground.
Jacob begins to tear up.
Elizabeth: "Don't give me that, come on now. Once this whole thing is over-"
Elizabeth stands and slowly starts to walk toward Jacob.
Elizabeth: "You and everyone else will bring everything back to what it was, save the world, and we're all gonna look at this and laugh and hell! You might just be seen as a hero!"
Elizabeth stands right in front of Jacob.
Jacob: "What if I don't wanna be seen as a hero?"
Elizabeth: "What?"
Jacob: "Nothing."
Elizabeth walks past Jacob as blue flames spread around her body.
Elizabeth: "One more thing, I've left something special for you in the infirmary."
Jacob: "Huh?"
Elizabeth: "Goodbye Jacob, I love you too, I guess! haha."
Elizabeth disappears with the blue flames.
Jacob looks up to see the blue sky.
Jacob: "Ha, So on this day, I've lost 2 loved ones."
Jacob turns around and steps one by one.
Jacob: "I'll change. I promise, Ava...Elizabeth."
Jacob opens a rift and slowly enters it.
N's group arrives at the cafeteria.
Cassandra: "ALRIGHT! it's time for good old grub-umm.."
The group is put to a stop to see a black girl wearing a sweatshirt and oversized pants and goggles on her head with braids eating a plate of mashed potatoes.
Everyone goes silent at the sight.
N lifts his head up from Cassandra's shoulder.
N: "Who's the geek?"
Jacob comes out of the rift to end up in the infirmary and looks around in curiosity.
Jacob: "Now then, what special surprise did you want to show me?"
Jacob finds a rolled-up paper on a desk.
Jacob rolls out the paper and begins to read it.
Dear Jacob, by the time you are reading this, I most likely am dead. I know, very shocking. But while you and Banishment were duking each other out or whatever you boys do (lol) I found out something strange about the omen. While yes, your theory was right about it absorbing Syn and using it against others, I wondered how exactly it could have such an ability, but be able to disperse it out so quickly and easily. So then I realized that the longer the fight would go on, The more Syn that the omen must be consuming and keeping within itself. Then it hit me! this thing must be some kind of ticking bomb just waiting for it to happen at the right time. So assuming that my theory is right, and my ability can act like some kind of counter. Then I'm afraid this might be the last message you will hear from me. It was fun meeting everyone even if it was quite short-lived. OH RIGHT! I left something in my disappearance, cause I already know you will need it haha. Simply take off the cloth.
Jacob looks at the giant cloth then grabs it and removes it revealing several chambers with green fluid running through them.
Jacob looks at the letter and reads it again.
SUPRISE! (assuming you've revealed it.) They're healing chambers that I've created with a lot of old parts I found laying around and a mix of my ability. And I've optimized it for preferably pleasurable seating ;)). Anyway, I'll miss you, Banishment, and everyone else that has helped us get this far.
Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone :)).
Love <3
Elizabeth.
Jacob tears up as the tears drop onto the paper.
Jacob stands next to one of the healing chambers and hugs it.
Jacob: "Thank you."
The group is talking with the black girl now.
Cassandra: "So you're one of the people that woke up from the first day?"
??: "Ye."
Yuji: "And your name is...?
??: "Mallory, but you can call me Mal."
Ashlyn sits down next to Mallory and puts her arm around her shoulder.
Ashlyn: "Welcome back, Mallory!"
Mallory: "Hehe thanks!"
Tatsuki: "So what exactly can you do? since you're one of the few people that survived the first day."
Mallory: "Oh, I actually don't have a useful ability or weapon like that."
N: "So you ran away-"
Cassandra coves N's mouth.
N: "oss (gross)"
Mallory: "Well, when my group was out, we were doing well until a giant crab came out and destroyed us. All I could do is run away in fear as I heard my group get slaughtered."
Holly: "So then, what can you do?"
Mallory: "You got anything on you?"
Yuji pulls out a piece of paper and gives it to Mallory.
Mallory hovers her right hand over the piece of paper and summons a hammer with her left.
Mallory: "Ability: Crafting Creation."
Mallory taps the piece of paper with the hammer she summoned. The piece of paper suddenly morphs into a small paper sword.
Yuji: "GAAASP PAPER SWORD!"
Yuji grabs the paper sword and starts swinging it around like a toy.
Mallory looks over at Cassandra in question.
Cassandra: "Kid's in his own world hehe"
Holly: "So you can make weapons essentially?"
Mallory: "Repair? Make? You name them I can make whatever you want...well, with the right materials."
Ashlyn: "Interesting, this could prove really useful since you know, our weapons took quite a beating."
Mallory: "Oh I'm sure it's not that bad-"
Everyone drops their weapons onto the table.
Mallory: "HOLY MALARKY! oh no no no no I gotta get these patched up real quick. You got anywhere I can work?"
Banishment enters the cafeteria.
Banishment: "I can ask Jacob to make some kind of smithy if that is what you require."
Mallory: "Oh! That would work perfectly!...who's this Jacob guy?"
Ashlyn: "Long story..."
Mallory: "Fair enough."
Cassandra: "HEY PATCHY PATCH-"
Cassandra points to Banishment.
Banishment: "Why is that my name?"
Cassandra: "DIDN'T YOU SAY WE WERE GONNA GET SOME GRUB?! COME ON NOW THIS STOMACH AINT GROWLING FOR NOTHING!"
Banishment: "Shouldn't you get some rest first?"
Tatsuki stands on the table.
Tatsuki: "FUCK THAT! BESIDES, ALCOHOL IS A GOOD THING FOR WOUNDS RIGHT?"
Banishment: "Yeah, as in putting it on the skin, not consuming-oh fine, here-"
Banishment snaps his fingers and food appears all over the cafeteria.
Everyone gasps in shock.
Tatsuki: "IT'S A FUCKING BUFFET!!!"
Cassandra: "EVERY STOMACH FOR THEMSELVES."
Everyone but N follows and grabs their food.
N walks over to the side and sits on top of a smaller cafeteria table.
Banishment: "Are you not-"
N: "I'll sit this out."
Banishment: "Very well, just know that there's plenty to go around."
Tatsuki: "WHO WANTS TO SEE ME SWALLOW THIS WHOLE TURKEY?!"
Irina sniffs while sleeping on the floor and suddenly wakes up.
Irina: "I'LL SWALLOW 2 TURKEYS FOR NOBODY CAN STOP YOUR GREAT EMPEROR NYAHAHAAAA"
Banishment runs over to stop the stunt.
N begins to contemplate about the blonde-haired woman.
N: "Who was that? And why was she so familiar?"
Yuji notices that Ashlyn isn't eating much and checks up on her.
Yuji: "You alright, Ash?"
Ashlyn: "Y-yeah, just a little hurt from the fight is all. Plus I'm still wondering what the hell was that thing I used-"
Yuji shoves a chicken breast in Ashlyn's mouth.
Yuji: "ENOUGH SOPPY STUFF AND EAT!!"
Ashlyn: "OK OK HAHA."
Jacob checks around to see if anyone is around.
Jacob opens a rift on the top floor stairwell to reveal a gigantic room with machinery everywhere all connected to a giant circular machine in the middle.
Jacob puts his hand on the circular machine.
Jacob: "I'll get you working...I'll make sure of it."
Ep 15-End.
(Fun Fact: Jacob was originally LGBTQ! But after meeting Ava, she helped confirm that he is bisexual!)
