Loba did not spend the night there, although she very much could have, she decided to go back to her own room and figure things out from there.
They didn't have much time, if someone could control the Apex games it meant no news of freedom for them. But could they have taken on this battle by themselves?
They needed the help of the other legends.

The next day, starting early morning, Loba explained her plan both to Crypto and Wattson, who agreed with her idea.
Sure, getting all the legends to team up was going to be hard... But if Loba could tolerate Revenant, so could the others.
Wattson was going to try and convince Life line, who actually eagerly joined. Thanks to that, they were able to easily convince Octane as well... of course only after running behind him for a while. Mirage joined as well but for way different reasons than expected... he wanted in on the drama going on between Loba and Revenant, which she delivered throwing in a bunch of juicy (totally fake) details. The rest was done by passing the word around, and by the evening they pretty much had all of other legends in some way join the team. All except for Revenant.

They knew he was going to ruin it for the others in a way or another, so instead of facing him directly, they decided to leave him in the dark for a bit as they figured more information about this mysterious control room.
Either way, Revenant would still only stay in his room, so maybe it wasn't going to be that difficult to keep him in the dark from everything.

Loba knocked on his door, this time she heard a voice from the other side saying:
"Come in,"
She couldn't recognize his room anymore, it was much neater than the previous day and this once Revenant was mid work-out. It seemed like he was starting to regain himself?
"Your room looks much nicer than it used to be,"
"I cleaned up, it was getting impossible to move around."
"How come? It didn't seem like you cared much last time,"
Revenant kept quiet, not really knowing what to say. Once Loba approached him, he stopped and put away his sport equipment, quickly drying his sweat with a towel nearby.
"So what are you here for?"
"Would you like to go out for a walk?"
He nodded, and shortly after they were outside.

No one was out there, in fact, it was all part of the plan. Crypto was going to host a quick meetup with the other legends so they could discuss some more details, engage in research and talk about what they could do in case the apex games would go on again, all this while Loba was with Revenant and keeping him from knowing anything.

But they certainly didn't expect to find pitch black once they got far enough from the lobby.
She knew that place, she walked there before... yet why was there only black? It was as if the world around them had started breaking down,  and all they could see was a black abyss.

The games were broken and perhaps, instead of a person controlling them... it was actually a natural process of the games to shut themselves down if damaged.
Which meant... that everyone there could be deleted.
What was going to happen to them?
