THOOM!

<What the…?>

The castle trembles violently as frosty rubble falls around us from above.

<Wait, if this keeps up…>

A foreboding thought cuts through my head.

The ticking of my clock was like a reminder of how much time we had left.

<We-we gotta get out of here, now!>

We hurriedly evacuated from the castle.

…Am I seeing this right?

The castle isn't falling apart, it's like…

Indeed, it's most certainly rising to its feet.

Don't look back! Just run!

<*pant* *pant* I, we ran quite a bit, but what now…?>

Footfalls. Not of a human. Rather slow and heavy.

…You could just say that something mammoth is after us!

That may have served better.

D-Dante! Our job here's done, so we can just book it! Cool?

<G-gimme a second! I never considered what we'd do once we got down here - >

Oh, really! Can we worry about that later?!

The bus… Where's the bus?

Quit prattlin' and run! Away from that thumpin'!

That might be the first logical statement I've heard leave your mouth, Heathcliff.

… I'm gonna smash your skull to bits later.
