Insanity: 09/16/2030, 14:49 - Part 2 ♪ BGM: Psychological Warfare ♫ There were just 15 minutes left until the AD wore off. There was no doubt that everyone underground would be severely injured once that time came. --A heavy silence hung in the air. Kazami soon shattered it with a sad voice. ...Why did things turn out this way...!? We're being chased by our squadmate and people we swore to rescue... and we have no place to run...! We can't save anyone... not even ourselves...! That was the first time Watase had heard her sound so hopeless. So much so that it nearly broke his heart just listening to her. (Goddammit... So there's nothing we can do...!? Would it be better just to give it all up...!?) But just as Watase thought this-- An image flashed through his brain. ♪ BGM: Silence ♫ ???: Watase! You can't give up! You have to keep fighting on and on until the bitter end-- If you wanna die, you can do that later! ♪ BGM: The Truth is Revealed ♫ Watase gasped. (What was that...?) Watase had no idea. It appeared to be one of his old memories-- a scene from his now forgotten past. Those words were nostalgic, sad, and comforting. They gave Watase the strength he needed. Tachibana... don't give up. Watase relayed those words to Kazami. We're still alive... and there's still people we need to save. So fight on until the bitter end... If you wanna give up, you can do that later. Those words brought the silence between them back. All Watase could hear was the sound of Kazami breathing. But when they exited the connecting passageway... Kazami quietly spoke up. ... Yes. Her voice was brimming with the will of someone determined to escape from this despair.
