Tommy slips into the mass of panic and confusion of an audience, searching for Niki.
"Tommy!" He hears a deep voice from behind him. Tommy turns around to find Eret standing, tears threatening to spill. "Please, Tommy. What can I do?" Tommy looks away, unable to decide if he can trust Eret.
"Help me find Niki. Help us escape," Tommy decides.
"Okay," Eret nervously laughs, "Okay! We can do this! Let's go." The two run towards the stage, where they last saw her. As they grow closer, the hear a scream, pushing them to run faster.
Eret and Tommy find the stage where Schlatt is standing in front of Niki, held by guards.
"You have driven me crazy! You can be so annoying!" Schlatt says before pulling out a dagger and holding it against her throat. "I can end that all right now."
Tommy tries to run to Niki but is pulled back by Eret. "You will just get yourself killed," he tries to reason with Tommy.
"Let go of me! I need to get to her!" Tommy screams. Eret lets go of Tommy's arm, not wanting to cause him anymore pain. Before Tommy can get to the stage, a trident drives through Schlatt's back. His power driven, hungry for death eyes fade as he falls to the ground. Behind him stands a tall man with the face of a pig. Techno slices the guards and frees Niki, before pulling out his trident. Niki and Techno join Tommy and Eret. The four run through the crowd, pushing their way. They make it to the end, only to realize Eret is no longer following. The sounds of explosions at the stage, scare them. The jump around and see Eret waving them off as he stands. The crowd running around him, trying to escape. The explosions get closer, and Techno pushes Niki and Tommy in the direction of Pogtopia, before leaving the group to fight those who try to escape.
"Eret!" Tommy calls through the noise. But Eret does not follow. Instead, he turns around and slowly walks back towards the incoming fire. Niki pulls Tommy into the forest as they watch the newly made Manberg flag, burning in the wind. The fire and explosions grow closer and closer. The two watch in fear and sadness as all those who they love, die. "Wilbur," they whisper in unison as tears stream down their faces.
