After a few more minutes of walking through empty and cold halls, I finally reached my final and probably last memory in my selection.

I knocked slowly on the door, and before the person had opened the door, I heard the Tsaritsa, who was still here, mutter, "Really...? Out of all the people....!"

The door swung open after a few moments of silence, and the ever familiar figure, gasped at my appearance, "Oh. My. God!!! How you dare to make me so worried and how you just appear here so casually!! The audacity!"

I chuckled at her reaction, giving her a wide hug, "Missed you too Sandrone!"

She just glared at me, only to loose her confidence when she spotted the Cryo Archon behind us.

"...You..!" she snarled at Veronica/the Tsaritsa.

Veronica just smirked back, "Yes, Sandrone?"

That only made Sandrone more hostile than ever, "You dare to toy with all my experiments to only fuel your emotions onto somebody else who does not replicate them!"

I stared at her in amazement, "Eh.... Hold up. What are you guys arguing about? Cause I cannot understand a single word you guys are saying! Especially you Sandrone!"

Sandrone's eyes pierced into my soul, sending shivers down my spine, "So tell me my Lady, did the reset work like you had hoped?"

I heard lots of sarcasm and mockery in her voice.

Oh and that made the Tsaritsa only more ticked off, "Don't you dare 'my Lady' me! I know you ticked off the system before Y/n had left. You knew this was going to happen, right?!"

Sandrone only hummed in response, reaching out for a vial, but stopped immediately, after being frozen to the spot. Not by ice, but by invisible strings, that I couldn't see or touch.

"Now Sandrone, don't let me remind you that you are a mere puppet, and that I can make you do everything I want you to do. But since our dear Y/n is here, and I don't want them to witness the.... process, let me ask you kindly again," the Tsaritsa says, walking slow, menacing steps towards Sandrone, "Will you reset the system so it allows me to aid my needs!?"

This time, Sandrone seemed more defiant than ever, "No. That will be my finale answer. And plus, I know by heart that Y/n is more than ready!"

Veronica rolled her eyes, "Of course you do. You think that they've been through enough gore and fighting to endure seeing you in pain."

Sandrone, who now could move freely again, commanded her robot to take steps forward, so herself and Veronica were face to face, only inches away from each other.

"Was the only reason for your order because of your love for Y/n?!" Sandrone snapped, clearly mocking the other again.

This time, the Tsaritsa who had risen to her full height had said, "What do you think? Some people may not be as heartless as you!"

I think that was over the line once I had saw Sandrone's eyes widen.

And I was still partially confused about the part about Veronica, or known as the Tsaritsa more officially, loving me.

At this point, there is no 'real' or 'fake' name anymore for her. Let's just call this godly figure, Tart.

I took a few steps toward them and as if I were a movie director, I put a hand in front of both of them, commanding, "I think you should stop. And by that, I mean truly stop bickering. I'm getting tired of it!!!"
