RoPo's POV:
I barely escaped, I stumbled out of the passage and tired to lock it away. I managed to do so, but I was injured pretty badly, both physically and mentally. I didn't want anyone else to see me covered in blood, so I tired to make my way to the elevator to hide. For some reason, the smell of Cap's blood made me drool. I was creeped out! I walk to the elevator but I took noticed that someone was coming in my direction. I couldn't see anyone, I just smelled them.Yeah, nope! I'm not falling for his control! The elevator is in that direction though, I guess I'll that the stairs. I need to hide anyway. I ran back to the stairs' door and ran inside. I kept running up them, not looking back at all. I stopped when I got up to the 50th floor. I looked behind me and saw a trail of blood, it must have dropped as I ran.
Oh crap! I need to get clean! I'm sure they'll think I'd kill someone! I was panicking, I ran inside my room and immediately locked it behind me. This was in case my .EXE self wanted to take control. I only know where the key is, he won't be able to escape and hurt anyone. That's one problem solved, now... the other. I started to cry, I fell to the floor and pulled my knees close to my face. I put my head down and remembered what just happened.
Cap's... Cap's dead! He not only died, but in front of me! And what was I doing?! Being a helpless piece of shit that's what! Agh, why does she need to get in my way?! I rubbed my hands on my face to dry my tears, then out of nowhere... I started to laugh. Not a sad laugh, more maniacal. I knew it was him who was laughing at my suffering, who else would have the same deep laugh but him?! I'm sure others heard my laugh from downstairs, they'll be coming here to see what the hell is wrong with me.
-Shut up! Can't you choose a more laughable moment that this?!
-It's just so hilarious seeing you crumbled in pain. Oh man, heh, it's just too funny.
-For you. You never liked anyone.
-True, the world is just what I really want. I don't like it in anyway. Just let me take over and it will all be g.
-Hell no! Like I said, go find a different moment to control me!
-That wasn't a choice, RoPo. This dude is a madman, I tired to conquer my fears of him but he just keeps coming. I feel his negative energy coursing through my body. My heart, my soul too. I'm trying desperately to fight him off, but I can't. I'm too weak, it then hit me. He only attacks when I'm at my lowest of lows. If I can't fight back, it makes his job so much easier. I needed to defend myself from his corruption, but his strength only increased the more I struggled. I feel tired, I feel my eyes slowly closing...
Jack's POV:
Why is there so much blood everywhere?! Did some .EXEs manage to get inside the tower? I don't know for sure but all I know is that I heard strange laughing from upstairs. I'm sure the others heard it but there much lower down, I was the closest by a few feet; I took the liberty and went to investigate. I am the myth after all. The laugh was so familiar that I knew exactly who it was."Oh no, be ready Jack," I said to myself. I arrived at the door it was coming from, it was RoPo's bedroom door. It was barricaded up with a golden key. I wonder why. I already had a crowbar, I just needed a golden key.
"If I were RoPo, where would I leave it?" I looked around the hall for a minute and then realized where he may put it, "In the trash!" I got the key and unlocked the door. I was surprised of what I saw. The bedsheets were ripped apart and the window blinds too. I saw blood stains on the floor and I immediately step backwards in fright.
"What happened here?" I asked myself, "RoPo, RoPo are you here?" I didn't get an answer, I just heard loud breathing. I walked slowly to the breathing with crowbar in hand, I was prepared to fight an .EXE, what I wasn't prepared for was this specific one.
"(Laughs) Jack?" Said a voice deep and creepy.
"Yes? RoPo, is that you?"
"Eh, maybe. Why don't you come closer and you'll find out." I walked closer to him, I wasn't expecting much, he wasn't expecting much. I got out my crowbar and whacked RoPo with it on the head. I turned around and ran to the door. Somehow, RoPo managed to make it in front of me.
"How did you do that?!"
"(Laughs) Oh Jack, did you forget that one moment where everything turned south for you?"
"Umm, no."
"It doesn't matter, this will be over soon anyway," he said as his fingers converted into black sharp claws. He struck me on the chest and send me flying to the wall. I couldn't see clearly, but I could tell that RoPo was walking to me.
"L-leave me alone, RoPo!"
"Like I'd do such thing, Jacky-Boy," he then struck me again with his claws, I blacked out shortly after.
RoPo.EXE's POV:
"You really have a memory of a rat, don't you Jacqueline?" I said as I tired him up with chains and braces. He slowly awoke, he groaned and mumbled gibberish."W-what... R-RoPo? Where am I? What happened?" I laughed for a minute at his pain, little did he knew that his negative thoughts gave me more power.
"Oh Jack, you're pathetic, calling yourself 'the myth' and other bull-crap I don't care for. Words can't save you now," I said as I approached his face with a grin. His stench reek of normal human, I knew his blood was something else.
"RoPo, you're not like this. Fight it! You always win in the end!"
"Haha, you're right about one thing Jack, that I always win. No one is going to save you! No one is going to know you're here, do you know why?!" I could see Jack shaking with fear; trying to be fearless won't save him.
"Umm, is it because you moved me into another room somewhere else in the tower? It would be pretty stupid if you kept me in the same room, RoPo."
"Idiot, if I tried to move you without any means of defense, that would be an idiotic move. I did move you, but somewhere no one will find you. If they do, well they'll know what comes to them."
"Where are we anyway?"
"You see those body parts over there," I said with a wide smile, "Those belong to a special someone that another tore apart." Jack's expression was laughable. He went from confident to coward as he turned and looked at the body parts. I turned him back around and made him look at me in the eyes. His face went completely white.
"If you dare make a fatal attempt to escape, I won't be the one to kill you..."
