"Prisoner, out of the cell right now. You're being bailed."

Sai looks up at the guard, "Ah... About time." She gets up, being escorted by the guards as she had the handcuffs on her wrist. She walks through the concrete halls. German text that Sai couldn't even tell what they said were displayed across the walls, before being finally tooken to the room which she would have her belongings returned.

She changed back into the same clothes that she had gotten into before coming to the prison in, and she steps outside. Outside were all the others waiting for her, most notably is the change in Clairo's hands. Her hands were now made into mechanized hands that would work now thanks to eh help of Chico and herself.

"Two months without her, had to get money from ruins y'know?" Postal says.

"Took you all two months to get to me.. perfect. Saw tons of crazy things in that place. The whole world lives crazy y'know." Sai says.

"Never thought you'd see us again, did you?"  Clairo says.

Sai sees Clairo, she smiles, "Are you... Doing okay?" She asks.

"I'm perfectly fine! Cmon now!" Clairo hugs Sai, the two exchanging a tight hug.

"So.. where now?" Sai says.

"You must know than, about Japan. Place got turned... Everyone there now is a beast. And when world is just sweeping it under the rug while the common populace lives with that reality now." Araki says.

"And it's not right!" Johan angrily says, everyone turning to him, "We could've done something... Couldn't we?"

"There was nothing we could do. We did our best, we saved everyone else at least." Brick says.

"But.. than- than everyone. They're all just beast now. Wondering aimlessly over there. The... Children. Babies- gone just like that. Could I of-"

"You don't know what could've been Johan. You don't know the extent of your power, none of us do." Araki says.

"That's why... We could've fixed it and we never even tried."

Hono looks afar, staring blankly at the distant poster on the wall, "What's up Hono?" Reiki asks.

"Seeing that too? World's strongest man?" Hono chuckles, "Oh please... Mark Gruel? What kind of name is that. Must be a real freak show to get that strong. And probably nowhere near as strong as us, right Reiki?" Hono says.

"That amount of strength, I've heard people say the newest competitors this year are something else. They're still hosting that Mr Olympia, right? And over here too? First time it's ever been outside the US." Reiki responds.

"What was it like in prison? What happen? And why'd they put you there?" Clairo asks.

"Well, thing is. When I was dropped allt he was over here, I just so happened to be dropped straight into jail. Has guns pointed at me, for locked up instantly for breaking in. They've never seen a case like this, called it unnatural and I pled- well that I was dropped there. Told them the full story and they didn't believe it, didn't even believe I was from Japan even though clearly I look like it, don't I?" Sai looks up at them.

"So not Japanese enough, that it?" Johan says.

"Clearly not. Anyways I've seen tons of messed up things go on in there. Only reason I made it was.. my ability. I just stayed out of trouble. At nights sometimes I'd go out the prison, a portal outside of it and I'd just walk around the night. The city is wonderful, calming to see it. But- I'll never forget... A man in the prison. He- he was a guard. Deranged, crazy, a power freak... So evil he was. I saw him once- he went into a room with a woman. At this point I had been stalking him, I wanted to beat the bastard myself! But.. the man came out the room, he came out with only ice cream on hand. It's strange enough that the room had no ice cream in it before... But stranger was that the woman he went in there with, she was gone!"
