Ep 23: Coming Together

!!(TW: mentions of rape)!!

Cassandra and Ashlyn are fighting a giant mole with purple spikes coming out of its back.

Cassandra UPPERCUTS the big mole, causing the mole to land on its back.

Cassandra: "Come on, SPIT HER OUT!"

Ashlyn: "I Got it!"

Cassandra: "Ash, wait-"

Ashlyn charges toward the giant mole as it flips itself back onto its feet.

Ashlyn leaps forward and PUNCHES the mole's face as her fist sinks into the mole's face but the mole is still unfazed.

Ashlyn: "Huh?"

The mole WHIPS Ashlyn away using its face, sending Ashlyn to bump into a nearby wall.

Cassandra jumps and lands on the mole's back then places her hand on the mole's back, causing the mole's body to heat up.

The mole starts to sweat until it eventually vomits out a woman wearing a torn and scratched-up dress. The woman rolls along in the vomit until stopping on the solid concrete of the street.

Cassandra: "Okay, now to deal with you!"

Cassandra jumps up, dives, and ELBOWS the mole with her fiery elbow as the mole screams in pain.

Cassandra: "That was for the girl. And this?"

Cassandra front flips and KICKS the mole's face in with the back of her foot.

Cassandra: "That was for Ashlyn! And this-"

Cassandra grabs the mole's face then PUNCHES the mole's face, causing the mole's face to invert and suddenly freeze.

Cassandra: "That was for fun."

The mole's body starts to decay then burst into dust.

Cassandra the woman covered in vomit wearing a torn and scratched-up dress.

The woman wakes up to see Cassandra approaching her.

Cassandra offers her hand to pick the woman up from the ground.

Cassandra: "You alright?"

The woman's eyes widen in fear as she crawls away at first, then runs away.

Cassandra: "...L-look out for yourself out there!"

Cassandra looks at her left hand as it starts to shiver and shake.

Cassandra: (Was it something I did?)

Ashlyn lifts herself up from the rubble and sits up along a wall.

Ashlyn: "Uhhh...that hurt..."

Ashlyn looks at her right hand as she gets flashes of semen on her hand.

Ashlyn: "What?"

multiple obese naked men appear and surround her.

Ashlyn: "N-no...NO! YOU'RE DEAD!",

Man: "Oh come on ashy, don't be such a buzzkill."

the men start to slowly walk toward Ashlyn they slowly start to rip off her clothes.

Ashlyn: "NO GO AWAY! YOU ALL DIED! I SAW IT!!"

Man: "Awww, but didn't you say you love us?"

Ashlyn: "NO...NONONOOOO"

Man: "ash...Ash..."

The men burst into dust as Cassandra shakes Ashlyn back and forth.

Cassandra: "ASHLYN, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SCREAMING ABOUT?!"

Ashlyn: "NO STOP, DON'T TOUCH ME!!!"

Ashlyn SCREAMS at the top of her lungs as purple flames BURST out of her body, sending Cassandra away as she catches herself off of the ground.

The flames extinguish as Ashlyn looks around with tears running down her face.

Cassandra: "The hell is-OW!"

Cassandra looks at her right arm as her skin starts to melt off, revealing flesh and bone.

Ashlyn: "Cass!"

Ashlyn runs over to help Cassandra.

Ashlyn: "W-was this me?"

Cassandra: "Haha...don't worry about it, nothing a little rest in a capsule can't do."

Ashlyn: "Does it hurt?"

Cassandra: "Girl, my skin is melting, I think it hurts quite a bit."

A rift appears behind both Ashlyn and Cassandra as Jacob jumps out of it.

Jacob: "THE FUCK WAS THAT?! I JUST SENSED A FUCK TON OF SYN JUST NOW!"

Cassandra: "Relax chief, just had a little accident is all."

Jacob raises his hand towards Ashlyn and Cassandra.

Jacob: "Teleport."

Ashlyn and Cassandra disappear as They both appear in the infirmary with Cassandra lying inside one of the capsules.

Ashlyn looks at Cassandra as her arm starts to heal.

Ashlyn: (I can't protect anyone, can I?)

Ashlyn hugs the capsule with Cassandra sleeping in it.

Jacob looks around to check for anyone.

Jacob: "fuck!"

Jacob's eyes turn blue.

N, Yuji, and Irina are in a desert.

Yuji's eyes turn blue as he hears Jacob's voice.

Yuji: "Oh, hey Jacob!"

Jacob: "You guys find anything yet?"

Yuji: "Uhhh..."

Yuji looks over to see N buried in a pile of sand with his head sticking out while Irina dances around.

Irina: "NYAHAHAHAAAA!!! I HAVE CAPTURED THE EMO!!"

N: "You are the definition of a mental illness."

Yuji: "No not really, what about Ash or Cass?"

Jacob: "I don't think they found anything either...I'll check with the others...See you."

Jacob: (I could have sworn I saw these hooded bastards around these parts...but how could they have traveled so far across the world? There's only so far that Syn could take you....unless, they might be more batshit crazy than I think..."

Jacob's eyes turn blue.

Banishment, Mallory, and Jizzabelle are in Paris.

Banishment's eye turns blue as he hears Jacob's voice.

Banishment: "You called?"

Jacob: "You guys find anything?"

Banishment: "Sadly no, we haven't been able to look for anything that could lead to them. Other than a couple of victims of omen here and there...but it's strange"

Jacob: "How so?"

Banishment: "They all run away from us like they haven't seen a human before...it's like they've seen something before we arrived...other than the omen of course."

Jacob: "Hmm..."

Mallory and Jizzabelle look up at the destroyed Eiffel Tower.

Mallory: "What do you think it looked like before all of this?"

Jizzabelle: "Are you aware that the internet existed?"

Mallory: "What does that mean?"

Jacob: "Keep searching just in case something pops up, see you in a bit."

Jacob: "I don't understand...first France, then the desert, and now here, and two other places we haven't checked yet...what would that correlate into...wait."

Jacob opens a rift into the cafe and then conjures a world map.

Jacob scratches lines and connects them all.

Jacob: "No...way..."

Jacob walks back to see the lines connected into a giant pentagram with Hestia in the middle of the pentagram.

Jacob: "They're fucking setting something up..."

Jacob points at the Mediterranean sea

Jacob: "And whatever they're planning, it's somewhere in the Mediterranean sea."

Ep 23-End.
