Elizabeth slept for a full hour before she began to stir, I was still fairly charged from my little 'nap' on the First Lady so I just made sure that no one would come down and try to kill us. Elizabeth opened her eyes and looked around, when she noticed she was hanging onto my shoulder she blushed.

"Morning sleepy head." I said, making her blush even more. "I... wait, what happened?" she asked, realizing that she had blacked out.

"You brought us through that tear where Chen Lin was alive. At least I think so." I said as I helped her up. "Lets head back to his gun shop and get this whole little fetch quest over with." I said as we headed towards the stairs.

...

Ok yeah things where different. For one, all the empty cells that we had passed on the way to cell none where now filled with members of the Vox. "We should help them." Elizabeth said, "They could help."

I nodded, "Good idea." I said walking to the lock, "Okay everyone, call from the governor came," I blasted the lock with my hand cannon, "You all get a free pass. Go nuts." I said as the doors opened, the prisoners cheered and rushed past us.

As the last of them filled up the stairway Elizabeth looked at me, "Did we... just preform a prison break?" she asked with a small bit of excitement in her voice.

"Pretty much. Come on, they probably cleared a path for us. " I said entering the projector room. Passing through the next room, something occurred to me, "Wait, what's stopping us from running into the 'us' of this universe?"

Elizabeth thought of that for a moment, "I think it works like... we become them... at least I think..." she said, not completely understanding the concept. "As long as the universe doesn't implode from us seeing out past selves or whatever."

Elizabeth looked at me questionably, "Never mind, movie reference." I said, opening the door into the next room. At the end of the room where... wait... how the hell?

"I... I killed those two." I said, looking at the two distraught Fink guards, bloody nosed and they where talking nonsense and... they looked like they where vibrating or something.

"They remember." Elizabeth said after hearing them, "What?" I asked. Elizabeth turned to me, a conflicted look on her face, "Being dead."

Ok that sounds terrifying. I didn't want to add to their confusion, or kill them again, so we walked passed them. Passing through the dressing room, we entered the stage as the light shone on us, "What is going on Sansmark! As head of my security, I think you should know how those two got past your people!"

Wait... didn't fink want me for that job? Shaking the thoughts from my head, me and Elizabeth took cover behind the curtains of the stage. The men came in a line towards us, thinking fast, I used bucking bronco to lift them into the air and used my carbine to pick them off one after another.

Two more men tired to run up the stairs on the other side but bucking bronco helped me with that.

When the area was clear Elizabeth noticed something, "(Y/N), that man you just fought. In the other world he was the man strung up on the wall." Looking down at the last man I saw she was right.

"I guess Chen Lin dying isn't the only thing that changed." I said, looking at the man. "Come on, I don't wanna stay here any longer than need be." I said, heading back up the steps to the second floor.

...

Exiting the Good Time club, it turns out that the plaza still looked like crap. And it was added by the dead Vox on the street. "Stop! Police!" Shit, well at least it's not False Shepard.

The right side of the street was sealed off and the left had police on the streets, firing my carbine into the chest of the first man, my shield was damaged from the shots of the man hidden behind a electronic horse. Using bronco, I easily took care of him.
