And there it was. The fights were over. Nothing left but the hell that was that hallway and Superbia after this all.
Allowing his weapon to vanish, Revenant looked among those gathered. Shotaro seemed as focused as before to his eye...definitely not one to talk much, but they were at least handling themselves well. Unison looked alright as well, though he hoped she didn't try to push anything with Wicked again. It seemed well-intentioned, but he had no idea if she'd provoke another response. Her disposition had shifted some, but even if she didn't act out, it still might give an unwanted response. And the witch herself... ...he wanted to say something, but didn't know what. God, he couldn't stop himself worrying if she'd stay standing. But he couldn't throw anything in her face. That'd get them nowhere.
"Let us not dally. The leader awaits." Revenant set off toward the television, taking the time offered to think. Hopefully, he'd have something by then.

At the end of it all they were the ones left standing. The witch stood in the middle of the rain of ashes on the scorchmarked tile, shivering and giggling dreamily as she ran a hand over face. "Heeheeheehahaaaa... mmmhmmhmm.. Oh my gaaaa-a-a-awd dude... haaaaaaa~" For the first time all night she felt incredible. With the bandages soaking into her skin her muscles weren't sore, and her head didn't hurt at all. This was the high she'd been looking for all night. With a quivering hand she lit a one of her magic cigarettes to put the finishing touch on that moment, shuddering as she breathed the nostalgic-scented smoke through her nose. THIS... was power. THIS was what it felt like to live. Running full force, no holds barred, nothing could stop her, barely skirting danger. The adrenaline charged powerfully through her veins, the endorphins in her system kicking into maximum overdrive.
The pain wouldn't come back for a while but the moment was over. That was okay. Everything was okay. It was all like... super good right now... y'know? Rusty wanted to move forward and that was fine by her, she was up for whatever. "Hmmhmmhaa, sure! Let's go!~"

As the team got further and further in, in the distance they would notice a television. It was on and had a red screen. It can be entered like the rest...

Wicked seemed pleased. Presumably..."I assume you found the satisfaction you've been seeking?" As much as he wasn't of the same mind as her, at the very least, it would mean good things if she had. Not getting whatever it was she got from this had been doing a number on her.
He spotted the TV, and smiled when he saw the screen. "I think we've found the first screen we've been looking for." Strolling up to the TV, he casually steps into it. Step one.

Unison watched Wicked's reaction to everything, silently, she simply followed along for a time untill the group got to one of the T.V's and there as Revenant went in she called forth a pawn who rushed to Shotaro's side "tend to his wounds..." she said simply as she took out a small gummy candy and chewed on it, the energy it gave her would be useful for the coming fight.
As for the issue she was seeing, it would be dealt with after this was all over, maybe...it all depended if she ever met Wicked at the Playhouse once this was all done with.

Using the hint that they had found at the crossroads, the team decided to try for the obvious and enter each TV in numerical order assigned by its color.

As the group hit the several television sets, they finally passed through the final necessary screen to finally hit their goal. The passage was the same as before and brought them to the same area like the rest. But, someone waited for them here. From what can be seen in their immediate area, they hit the true nexus of this studio. There was a variety of broadcasting and office equipment in this vast expanse of space. In the center of it all was one woman. She was easily recognizable for those who've seen her image in the previous night. The look of her face austere and vain. It was clear she looked down on them. "And so the rats finally scurry towards their prize... I was looking forward to meeting you all. I wondered what you all looked like before I stomped on your insignificant selves."
This was it? If anything, they didn't look all too different from a cosplay group in some nerdy convention that she derided frequently. Psyche-Terrorists were indeed such a lowly bunch. Parading around in their ridiculous get-ups and messing with the generous Order the Queen bestowed on them. Hell, this should be easy. It's a wonder how that degenerate Invidia lost to them. The very idea of it made her want to laugh and perhaps raise a glass in their honor for wiping out such an obstinate rival. At least, until they began to nib at her heels next.

There she was...Superbia. District Leader for this section of Endymion...and since joining, his first target among those who led the government. God, the arrogance bled from her, from the look on her face to the words that she spoke. It practically rolled off from her in waves. She thought she was better than them. For some reason, this fight felt more...enticing. It would be satisfying to prove her wrong. To wipe out a section of the force responsible for so many of the awful, awful things that he just so couldn't stand.
An impassive gaze fixes from Revenant's gaze to Superbia, as his eyes flick over her. "I will admit, I had wondered as well...what it would look like to see you in person. A District Leader, those handpicked to govern...I cannot say I'm impressed." He didn't know where the words came from, but he didn't feel like stopping their flow. "You certainly don't live up to the mythos thus far. No wonder you are so secretive about your appearance. The disappointment would be palpable." He can't help but laugh a little at that. All this worry before...and now here he was, unconcerned and talking to her as if she was nothing. Something was messed up in his head, huh? "I wonder why you were placed here. Were you so desperate to avoid the mockery that would come with others knowing you that you pleaded for the control you needed to remove any chance of your visage reaching the public?"
This was it. This was the moment of truth. He called his weapon to hand, letting the end rest against the floor. "Regardless of anything else, the fact remains...you are an issue that needs addressing." "I think that's the only important thing to be said here."

Finally making it to the end, Gabe would exhale a deep breath as he adjusted his hat. Looking towards the enemy at hand, a small smile would be brought upon Gabe's face at the fact that they manage to make it to the end. They almost had a few shortcomings and could have possibly met their end at the mob of forces that were in their way. However, they still managed to persevere with some look and a lot of teamwork. Gabe gave a lot of the credit of them making it that far towards the fact that they were able to coordinate their assaults and work together.
Was it something that they can keep up when it really counted? Now that they were face to face with the person that created such a twisted domain?
Listening to Knight's response to what she said, Gabe couldn't agree more. However, he didn't want to sound like a broken record player and repeat the same thing. Instead, Gabe decided to bring up another point.
"Regardless of the reason why you chose to hide, you punish those whose curiosity gets the better of them. Even those who chose to write the truth about the government or to even be unbiased about the news in general with the propaganda you continue to spread, they go missing as well. What have you done with them? Or better yet, what have you done with the BODIES? It can't be too farther from the truth when you are immune to your own employee retaliation policies in a democratic media company of all places. I would say that you should feel ashamed of yourself, but perhaps you are incapable of doing so."
Sucking his teeth, Gabe would simply shake his head.
"The only thing that's going to be stomped on is your inflated ego, this is also for all the people you hurt with the possible fabricated articles you created that masks all illegal government activity. "

Unison looked at the place they had walked into, they had managed to get here but she had to wonder at the stability of the two allies they had with them, well three, through out this whole ordeal the one named Zappa hadn't said or done much, but Wicked and Revenant had shown they were...vulnerable..
In the end it honestly wasn't that different to the manner in which Xombie and the other girl acted, so in the end she had to consider the fact that this just may be the type of people they would end up getting. It wasn't like they could actively recruit ether, honestly they needed all the help they could get, however people of such...volatile character...some times could be more problematic them helpful, she would need to talk with them both later.
For now though they stood in front of the person in charge of this district, Unison listened to their words and those of her two companions, and she actually started to chuckle "It figures you would consider yourself cheese in a maze....spoiled...and riddled with rot and germs...far more effort to reach then is needed for the substance of the so called prize....if anything your simply something that was handed power...no work done...no effort done to earn such a place...begging and pleading got you this position where you act like you are in charge. but there are strings that pull you..." she lifted her shot gun and rested it on her shoulder.
"One wonders if you even realize how trapped you are....the strings that bind you to your place...the fear you feal if you would fail...you know no help will come for you...none came for Invidia...none will come for you... she looked at the woman from toe to head.
"then another thing comes to mind...if you had ever been free of those strings....if you have ever had an honest independent thought of your own...or if you have spent your life acting like you have control...when really all you do is the bidding of someone else and pretend that you made the choice..." the mirth had faded from her voice long before this point.
"I pity you....you who have no independence you puppet on a string...who has deluded yourself into thinking you have power and freedom....and I have come to release you...to free your pitiful mind and body from the bonds that hold it...." she looked to Shotaro and nodded a moment before she looked back to the woman.
"Even if I have to drag you...kicking and screaming into the light...."

Patricia was seriously stoked as they bounded from TV to TV, bouncing on her toes with a spring in her step. She was finally gonna get what she came for and put that skank in her place. Patty didn't even care what she was doing, but what she knew was she was a bitch and needed to punched in the fucking nose to teach her she wasn't as good as she thought she was. She'd happily do it to, nothing could satisfy her more than putting her boot to her neck and laughing in her perfect face. She wanted it to be hard and dangerous, Wicked wanted a challenge. And she wanted to tear that challenge to shreds and throw it around like confetti, yo.
When the entered the final TV they'd find themselves with Superbia. Of course she was a freakin' suit, Patty didn't know what she expected. She'd speak immediately with a Yo! What's up, chica? before letting everyone else have their turn. She was sure they had things to say, important stuff, and Patty didn't really have any stake in this. She was just here to knock a stuffy whore down a peg and rub her face in the dirt.
Wicked would roll her eyes as everyone did their whole spiel. Like, the fuck everyone gotta be so opinionated and righteous and shit? Like dude, you could do good stuff and not have a stick up your ass about it, c'mon. Buuuuuut they were freedom fighters, so this meant a lot. They probably meant what they said but like she saw it as pretty pointless. It's not like Ms. Rich Bitch was gonna change her mind. Patricia would do something a little more useful instead and get her pissed the fuck off so she couldn't focus. Ooooooh this was gonna be fuuuuuuuuun...
If it Matters:
—Strength Name: Under Your Skin —Description: Patty is incredibly good at getting in someone's head and loves to play mind games and games of social chicken. She often knows just the right things to say to make someone angry or sad or impressed just by paying attention to their temperament and context clues, an essential skill in living the life she does. Her Persona also applies this sort of analytical mindset and can hammer the gap effectively when needed.
When Patty hits attacks an enemy's Weakness her attack is boosted by 10%. The attack power is boosted, not the damage, meaning this also applies to clashing.
The witch would walk in front of the group a bit, putting a hand to her hip and leaning forward condescendingly. "Game over, bitch. Ya done. Y'know, I gotta agree with Shorty here, you are no prize ahahaha! Yo, how much time does it seriously take you in the morning putting on makeup to look average? Haha, I bet the only thing you step on is a scale with a look of disappointment in your face, I really don't blame you from wanting to hide your appearance from everyone, I wouldn't want anyone to look at me either if I were you." Wicked would stand up straight and tilt her hat back casually, looking her nose down at her. "So like, I'm kinda with them kinda not, y'know? Honestly I'm just here to knock your buck teeth I know you had to have straightened down your throat. I'm not expecting much though, like, your security should really be better fighters than you are because that's kinda the fuckin' point? So like what, you suck dick to get where you are right now 'cause I would looooove to see what kind of freak would let that touch them with any part of their body."
The witch would summon her staff to her hand and begin twirling it in her fingers, ready for a fight. "So like, why don't you make this easy for me and get on your knees? Ahahaha, I'm assuming you hear that a lot, right?"
Character Strengths -Under Your Skin: When Patty attacks an enemy's Weakness her attack is boosted by 10%. The attack power is boosted, not the damage, meaning this also applies to clashing. -Driven: +15% PMstr -Give In To the Urge: Patricia's Persona Overdose lasts for 4 turns instead of 3.
Character Weakness -Can't Take It: When Patty is attacked by one of her Weaknesses the attack power is boosted by 10%. This applies to the attack power, not the damage, meaning that it applies to clashing. -Half Assed: -15% PPstr -It'll Come Back to Haunt You: The backlash from Patricia's Persona Overdose lasts for 4 turns instead of 3.
