FOURTH TRIAL

[bathymetric]

[ Well! That's sure something, isn't it? There may or may not be a lot of you excited to get down to business, but Jones does eventually move to collect you all and bring you to the theatre. It's a familiar routine by now, perhaps even comfortingly so given the irregularities of this particular killing.

Two of you gone this week. The elevator is started to feel downright spacious, don't you think?

A shanty, as usual, echoes from the crew of the Dutchman as you enter. The room is the same as it has ever been before you as the elevator settles into position. ]

To yer positions, passengers. Chins up.

[ Three more podiums claimed by the rust and wear.

You have your evidence, and you're going to need it before long. The music outside dies down.

Welcome to your fourth trial. ]

[yeah he's fucking gone, he's had it. Zero's yanking off his helmet the second he's able, left eye glowing red.]

Jack, let me use my power one time unless you only care to win a game that's rigged!

[heroantagonist]

[Jack's face blinks onto the monitors.]

Hey, you want to be disappointed? By all means, knock yourself out.

[Though, try as he might, his power will not work.]

[jibunwo]

If we live through this, I hope you know I'm going to kill you myself. Just as an aside.

[ Not until he gets a good slice in, you're not. ]

[A mirthless chuckle.]

Sure, cupcake.
