Becca's POV
Today, things are going a lot smoother. It's also going to be different because I had promised Yuri that I would help her save Natsuki. Carmilla had given us all earpieces so that she and Laura could contact us if they needed to and give us vital information. As Jack, Bella, Alex, Monika, Maria, Sayori, Ella and I walk into the redesigned prison cell that is being used as one of the "therapy" rooms, we're assigned seats. To my (and Ob's) surprise, I'm seated next to Natsuki!
"That's her!" Ob exclaims.
"Somethin's not right," I reply.
"What do ya mean?" she asks.
Before I can answer, the "therapist" clears his throat.
"Welcome, everyone!" he says in a voice so cheerful that would've made me smile had I not known who he was working for. "As you can see, you are all paired up in groups of two. Now, for today's activity, you are going to get to know the person sitting next to you at your table."
Natsuki turns towards me, and I hear Ob gasp in surprise.
"Her eyes!" she exclaims. I grit my teeth, realizing that my oldest enemy had survived. Bill Cipher, who had disguised himself as Natsuki, got up and floated towards the front of the room. Suddenly, he changes to the form that I hate the most: the form he took when he murdered Will. Of course, he had also added several of his own touches, such as the triangular eyepatch over his left eye.
"I thought ya had ta have a host in order fer ya ta exist outside of yer dimension," I said, completely puzzled.
"YEAH, WELL, EACH HOST HAS MADE ME STRONGER, AND NOW, I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT!" Bill says, laughing maniacally. He raises his arms, and a platform - with Natsuki chained to it - raises up until it is level with the floor. "ANYWAYS, I'VE GOT PLACES TO BE! THINGS TO DO! SO HAVE FUN TRYING TO SAVE YOUR FRIEND!" Bill floats off, and I immediately begin working to free Natsuki.
"What are you doing?!" the "therapist" asks, turning me to face him, which is when I finally see his face.
"Natemare!" Ob and I say in unison, though hers comes out as more of a snarl.
"Missed me?" he asks, smiling viciously.
"Hardly!" I snap. "And besides, I've never met you, but I've heard stories."
"Oh?" he asks. "Like what?"
"Like..." I begin as Ob takes over.
Ob's POV
"...the fact that you enjoy terrorizin' these poor children!" I exclaim as I rush at Natemare, my eyes glowing completely blue with my power. Suddenly, Alex tackles Natemare, holding him down.
"I GOT THIS!" she exclaims. "GO SAVE YOUR FRIEND!" I rush back to Natsuki, using a small amount of my power to break the cuffs around her wrists, ankles and neck. She stands up, and begins to massage her sore wrists. Out of the corner of my eyes, I see Natemare turning into a cloud of indigo smoke, floating out of the room.
"Thanks, I guess," the pink-haired girl says as I separate myself from Becca.
"Well, it's the least I could do," I reply.
"Come on, let's get ta lunch," Jack says. We follow him, and I phase back into Becca's body. Time to execute the plan.

Lyrics:
It's easy to set a young heart on the run
To see it crashing out the sky falling one by oneWalking alone on the coldest nights
There's nothing I could ever say to change your mind
I gotta live without your love, we've said goodbye
There's nothing I could ever say
To change your...To change your mind
To change your...
Live without goodbye
To change your mind
To change your...
To change your mind
To change your...
Live without goodbye
To change your mind
To change your...Defeated by the dreams and the memories we've made
To see it crashing out the skies like a tidal wave down on meWalking alone on the coldest nights
There's nothing I could ever say to change your mind
I gotta live without your love, we've said goodbye
There's nothing I could ever say
To change your...To change your mind
To change your...
Live without goodbye
To change your mind
To change your...
To change your mind
To change your...
Live without goodbye
To change your mind
To change your...Walking alone on the coldest nights
To change your mind
To change your...
There's nothing I could ever say
To change your mind
To change your...
I gotta live without your love, we've said goodbye
To change your mind
To change your...
There's nothing I could ever say
To change your mind
To change your...
