As Octopus Man looked up at the massive tower, he turned his gaze back to the Triune and asked, "What if we just attack you directly and ignore the tower?"
"Nuh uh. You can't defeat us because our existence is on a stasis between each and every floor of the tower. To get to us, you have to destroy it and there is no other way around that." the green figure explained.
"Why are you telling us the way to defeat you?" Floran asked. The blue figure then spoke up, saying, "Because no one has ever gotten to us before, so we might as well give you a fair shot, although, you'll lose regardless."
Brazilian Bug Boy closed his eyes and harnessed all of his fully unrestricted power and was funneling it to his sword. "STAND BACK EVERYONE!" he yelled.
The group looked at him, surprised he was taking this into his own hands. They all stepped back a bit on the platform and Brazilian Bug Boy swung his sword forward. The shockwave from the slash collided with the tower. The force was strong enough to destroy several sections.
The group covered their eyes as the power emanating from the sword was quite bright. Brazilian Bug Boy lowered his sword, only to see that the shockwave had not even left a scratch on the tower.
"HAHA! IT'S ALL USELESS!" The yellow figure shouted.
"Oh my god. I'm quitting." Floran said, throwing her arms up in anger. "NOT NOW FLORAN! WE'RE SO CLOSE!" Emberlyn shouted.
"I DON'T CARE ANYMORE OKAY!" Floran shouted back at Emberlyn, causing her to back away in fear.
"I know I made a huge deal about wanting to defeat the Triune, but our every move is being dictated by something... or someone. WE CAN'T WIN!" Floran explained.
"Don't worry Floran, I'm here!" Cutecumber said with a bright smile on her face. "I'd literally rather hear that from Malum than I would from you." Floran remarked.
"HOW RUDE!" Cutecumber yelled, offended by Floran's statement.
"Hey guys. The tower grew guns." Kookakoo said, munching on a biscuit. Floran turned to see that the tower did indeed grow guns and was aimed directly at them.
"TIME TO DIE HAHAHA!" The blue figure laughed.
As the guns fired, the group started screaming in fear, but Octopus Man reached out his hand and created a magical barrier around them, which deflected all of the bullets.
"I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD DO THAT!" Cutecumber shouted in surprise. "I barely know you guys, and even I shouldn't expect any consistency from Octopus Man." Nalay stated.
"See, Nalay gets it." Lusha said.
Goose Man got on his knees and shoved Malum who was still unconscious. "Hey, wake up." he said, nudging her slightly. Malum opened her eyes weakly. 'Huh? What happened?" she asked weakly.
"We're going to die." Goose Man said in a calm tone. Malum immediately passed out again.
Kookakoo got a microphone and said, "Boomerang, what do you have to say about this predicament?"

Boomerang lowered his neck and spoke into the microphone, saying, "Well Kookakoo, I am quite horrified, and frankly, I'd rather be anywhere else right now."
"How long can you keep up this barrier Octopus Man?" Brazilian Bug Boy asked, looking up in fear at the bullets bouncing off of it. "Oh, maybe another second or two." Octopus Man replied. "WHAT?" Brazilian Bug Boy screamed.
The barrier then disappeared, and Octopus Man was shot by the bullets many times, before he collapsed, and the guns stopped firing. The Triune continued laughing in the distance. "ARE YOU DEAD?" Kookakoo asked, running up to Octopus Man.
"Yes." Octopus Man replied, laying on the ground.
"HOW DARE YOU KILL OCTOPUS MAN!" Kookakoo yelled. She took a deep breath and yelled, "(ℶω1 +ℵω2 )κ⋅2j(κ) "Damn you Kookakoo, you killed the narrator!" Floran shouted. "I just got really good at math. It's not my fault!" Kookakoo responded. "The narrator is still narrating guys." Brazilian Bug Boy stated. "Well duh, they have 9 lives remember?" Kookakoo responded. "Well, it didn't matter because the tower took absolutely no damage at all." Nalay said, pointing to the tower. "Yup! Like we said, it's totally useless." the green figure remarked. Octopus Man got up and shouted, "KOOKAKOO! PASS ME THE CHAIN!" Kookakoo perked up and said, "You don't mean?" "I DO MEAN!" Octopus Man shouted. Kookakoo got excited and pulled a chain out of her pocket and tossed it to Octopus Man. "This is the chain of causality. If I break it, I can destroy the past and future without repercussions." he stated before ripping the chain apart. "Uh yeah, that won't work, you breaking that chain was in the future, so it's technically contained within the second tower. Sorry not sorry." The blue figure stated. "They have defeated me." Octopus Man said, looking at the ground sadly. Mr. Fluffypants, Rit, and The Number 7 continue walking down the manor and once they reach the end of the hallway, they see the Floran shaped hole in the wall. "That figure reminds me of something scary." Mr. Fluffypants said, shaking a bit. "Shut it. Let's just go." Rit said, walking through the hole before falling into avoid. "WHAT THE...!" she screamed, but she stopped falling. She looked up to see that Mr. Fluffypants held on to her arm before she fell completely. Mr. Fluffypants used all of his strength the pull her back up, and when he successfully did so, she was shaken from the near-death experience. Rit stood up and sighed before turning back around to see the hole she almost fell into. "What even is this?" she rhetorically asked herself. 7 simply hovered through the hole and Mr. Fluffypants yelled, "NO 7! DON'T!" but as soon as 7 did, a flash appeared through the void, and it disappeared. Mr. Fluffypants and Rit looked at each other in confusion. Rit held on to the wall and cautiously stepped into the void, and she also disappeared. "WHAT DID 7 DO TO THIS HOLE?" Mr. Fluffypants yelled to himself. He looked around and he was trembling violently. He also clutched the wall and stepped his trembling foot into the void, and also disappeared. He closed his eyes and screamed, and when he opened his eyes, he was in the same world Octopus Man's group was in. He was on a third floating platform that was floating farther away. He looked around to see that Rit and 7 were also on the floating platform he was on. "YOU GUYS SURVIVED!" Mr. Fluffypants shouted in happiness. "I WAS NOT SCARED!" Rit yelled. Mr. Fluffypants backed away and said, "I... I never said you were." Mr. Fluffypants then ran up to 7 and said, "What happened? What is this place?" 7 stood still, not uttering a word like usual. "Oh that makes sense." Mr. Fluffypants replied. "What? What did it say?" Rit asked in confusion. "It said this place was an endless looping world, similar to the one we were trapped in, but Floran destroyed it." Mr. Fluffypants replied. "IT SAID ALL THAT?" Rit yelled. "AND HOW DID IT EVEN KNOW THAT?" she screamed. Octopus Man pointed over to the new floating platform and said, "Hey look, it's those guys." Floran stared at the platform and gritted her teeth. "That bastard is over there." she said, fuming with rage. Mr. Fluffypants pointed over to their platform and said, "Hey look, it's those guys. AH! AND THE SCARY ANGEL!" Rit rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "You can't go 10 minutes without crying about something." she muttered. "Hey, enough focusing on other people. Stay on track." the yellow figure said, snapping its fingers to get everyone's attention.
