Today was a strange day. I guess that's an understatement to say, when we woke up pretty sure it'd be the end of the world today, but it's the best way to say it I guess. I can't remember the last time I slept, though I know everyone's been looking out for each other. Usada would tell me when it was, if I asked him. It's been the longest day ever, but almost every minute it's felt like it is going to be the very last. Is that a day that's longer or shorter than it feels?

By the time that it's all almost over, and Jin tells us his plan, I don't really have anything left in me to be sad with. My body knows what to do, how to cry and be upset and scared and angry -- we shouldn't have to give up Jin when all of this is Messiah's fault to start with! But inside, I'm just numb.

We fight. And somehow we win.

Except...things don't go the way they're supposed to. Hiromu and Nick and Ace are in the subdimension with Enter, fighting him. Jin's already doomed. I can't remember what the future we're fighting for is supposed to look like. Some part of me, the part that's kind of Usada's daughter, if you think about it that way, is certain that we're going to lose Hiromu too.

And then he climbs out of the purpley red molasses air, rends a hole between the worlds to climb out. Nick's back to being Nick and he's at his side.

Hiromu and Nick are both carrying bodies?

The subdimension ripples and snaps and shivers and dies. It crumples in on itself, we can see it crushing itself down like it's as squishable as an aluminum can.

And Hiromu and Nick are standing in front of Ryuu-san and J and me, and it doesn't make sense, what I'm seeing.

Nick is holding Jin. Really holding him, and he's staggering because he must have been damaged in the battle and Jin is heavy to hold.

He's heavy!

He's also unconscious, and Gorisaki's running to Nick's side to help him, to cradle Jin's head, hold his spine straight.

I look back at Hiromu, because I looked at him first but it just didn't make sense so I think my brain broke or something.

Yep. He's still holding him. Draped in his arms like he's a child or a princess or one of the civilians we've saved so often.

It's Enter.

He's...somehow, I think he's unconscious, too?

I feel the ground hit my butt really hard. My legs collapsed, I guess.

Ryuu-san runs to Hiromu, takes Enter from him. His face is just as confused as mine but Hiromu's bleeding all over and his eyes are glassy and blank and I think he's unconscious standing up. Ryuu-san's strong enough to hold Enter and even to restrain him when he wakes up.

As soon as he's not holding Enter anymore, Hiromu falls. J's there and catches him. He ran to see Jin and was close enough.

I don't feel very useful right now, but I just can't understand what I'm seeing.

The communicators are crackling and screeching. Commander Kuroki is probably yelling but the magnetic and digital interference are way too strong. Nothing coherent is coming through.

I can hear the blades of my chopper overhead. Usada and the Commander were probably thinking ahead. The chopper can get us all home again, away from this place.

That's good.

That's good, right?
