BTS [TTEOTS] - Butterfly (ON HOLD)

Zero - 01 - GE

(You won't understand the beginning if you haven't finished the prolouge of the game.)

Are you serious!?" Zero shouted, surprise clearly shown on his face.

"You guys fell deep," Mags a.k.a the Magician said, only agitating Zero more.

Me, on the otherhand, said nothing, along with Six. We simply stood there, watching the scene in front of us unfold. The others had walked in afterwards, remaining calm. I hear Four call out to Zero in my ear, "Composure, Zero. Tame it. You're stronger than that." It seemed like Four was also a bit shaken, but he covered it up well with his voice. He nodded to himself, letting a drop of sweat stream from his forehead.

'Stay strong, Zero.' I saw Nine eye me from where he was standing, probably giving me a look of worry sense I'm only still getting used to Olympia. "Maybe we can talk this out," Nine said aloud, one hand in his pocket, and the other putting on his sunglasses. "There isn't anything to talk about."

"Are you sure?" Five and Eight said in perfect unison. "Your little 'trick' isn't gonna work on me, so don't even try." She responded in full confidence, leaving the two of them to sigh. Six looked over to me, and saw my troubled expression. "I.. don't know what to do." Four said, humiliated of himself. "What if," I whispered, low enough for Six to only be able to hear me, and maybe Four, along with everyone else who listened to the earpiece.

"We plan a strategy. Or maybe let them guide us, but later take action..?" I looked over to Nine, who looked back and nodded. 'Good, they heard me.' I saw Zero breathe in and out, regaining his composure. He whispered under his breath, "Okay..."

"I know you guys are whispering to eachother. May you tell me what you're discussing?" Nine stepped forward, "We decided to let you guys do whatever you want with us." Though I couldn't see her expression, as she was wearing the mask, and looking towards Nine. "Have you finally given up?" She said as she laughed, which made me glare at her from behind.

"Well, as long as you won't do anything, I'll offer you all a room, sense I'm assuming you aren't able to go back at the moment." She said, proudly. We all shot looks to Five and Eight, who only looked away from our gazes. 'Did their "effect" wear off or something?' I thought, looking at the pair in wonder and confusion. "Lead the way," Three said, "Lead the way," Which Mags nodded to, "Follow me, then." We followed her out to the hall, and eventually had to split up into two rooms.

"Seven," I looked behind me to see Nine walking up to me. "Yeah?" The rest stopped in their tracks to listen in. "Um, are you okay with being with.. only guys?" I shrugged and said bluntly, "As long as no one's gonna try anything, I'm fine with it." He, relieved, said, "Surely no one is going to do anything, so you have nothing to worry about. If anything, they're just going to stay up late to talk." A smile appeared on his face as he took off his sunglasses.

"But before we settle, we have to decide who's going to stay in what room." He eyed Zero and I, "I think you two are okay to be with eachother - sense you both are a team." I nodded, then side-glancing to Zero, who had an unreadable expression on his face. "I'll stay with you two as well. Are you guys fine with being in a room all together?" Six nodded, a wide grin on his face, and the rest nodded in agreement. "Alright, see you guys tomorrow, then." Nine made the two of us follow after him and into the room.

The room had white walls with a dark blue colored carpet, but with no decorations, or really anything else. Zero closed the door behind us. "This is.. rather plain." I said, standing in the middle of the room. "Tell me about it," Four said from the earpiece. "Nine, if Four was here, would he be with us?" He nodded in return, "Yeah, sense the others already have 4 in their small group." "Ah, okay," I said in understanding.

"Why don't you have a seat and rest? Today was a long day." He said, caringly. I nodded and sat down in the corner. A short while after, Zero sat next to me. "Are you tired?" He asked me, to which I responded in a weak voice, "Quite, actually." I chuckled a bit, noticing my tone and how soft it sounds. "If you want to," Nine said, stretching, "You two can head to sleep."

"Oh, thank god." I sighed, feeling my eye lids get heavy after hearing the word 'sleep.' "Is that okay?" Zero had asked, to which Nine turned his head to look at him, "Of course. You and Six have already hacked the doors, so they can't be opened without you two."

"That's convient, then." I said in return, offering Zero a smile. "I'll turn off the lights." I hummed, listening for the click of the small switch. When the light deceased, and there was only darkness, there were pretty lights coming from the ceiling, like yellow and bright roots or vines connect to eachother carved into the top of the room. I awed, "Pretty," was muttered under my breath.

From the dimness of those lights, it made me even more tired than I was before, and before I knew it, I was already in my dream state-of-mind.
