This was a nightmare. Everything around me was chaos. I couldn't recognize the place I once called home. Everything I knew was being taken away. My companions and I tried to run, but that monster had caught up to us. We knew we needed to get away, and the destruction caused by Karito and those other supervillains had opened up a small opportunity for escape. But, in the end, it was futile. Just when we thought we were safe, a maniacal laugh would surround us. The first one to start losing his mind was Claggor; he would hold his head as if having an intense migraine. I tried to help, but he pushed me away.

(Claggor) "HAAAA!!!!" Falls to his knees "RUN! It's too late for me now! I can feel him invading my-! NHAAAAA!!!" 

(Vi) "No! Claggor! Come on we need to-!

(Claggor) "JUST FUCKING GO! HAAAA!!" Starts to convulse on the floor

(Powder) "What the hell is going on?!" Tears stream down her cheeks

(Mylo) "G-Guys! W-We need to go! NOW!" Afraid 

(Vi) "But Claggor is-!"

(Mylo) Grabs Vi's shoulders "Can't you see that we lost him?! His mind was invaded first and then we are gonna be next! We got to run!"

(Vi) "Fuck... FUCK!"

I didn't want to leave Claggor, but judging by the looks of it, as Mylo said, he was the first victim. With no other choice, we continued running. The fight between Karito and those monsters didn't fade away; it's as if they were moving with such speed that they were all across the battlefield. This... I don't even know what the hell this fight is. My mind can't even process what's going on, and I'm sure that's the case with the others as well.

After minutes of running, we stopped in a destroyed home. We saw too many casualties from this fight. So much violence and gore littered everywhere. I lost count of how many times I almost hurled, but because of the desperation to survive, none of us did.

We hid, our breathing heavy and our adrenaline on max output. We could still hear the fighting, even if we were a few miles away from it at this point. Just how exactly powerful are these people?

Crack! 

(Mylo) "HAAA! NOOO! FUCK! FUCK!"

(Vi) "Mylo!"

(Powder) "HAAAAAAAA!" Panics

The wall where Mylo was turning his back to, a hand suddenly pierced it and his chest. At first, Mylo started to panic, but then he just shut down after realizing what just happened. In succession, the Red Goblin had gone through the wall, still holding Mylo in his hand. His demonic smile reached from ear to ear as he looked at us as nothing but prey.

I knew what this meant. I didn't want to admit it because it would be too much for me, and if Powder heard, she would probably end up worse because of how sensitive she is.

But... Vander.

Is dead.

(Dark Red Goblin) "I found you~"
