>After recovering from the hits, you stand up, take Purple into your van, and go to the library
-
2.
>A few minutes later, you two reach the Canterlot Public Library's entrance
-
3.
>It's night time, so you two can't get in through the front door
-
4.
"Well, tell me"
-
5.
>"Tell you what?"
-
6.
"You know this place, so you know how to get in, right?"
-
7.
>"Actually, I don't know how to do that. I always leave at closing time"
-
8.
"Are you kidding me? Ugh"
-
9.
-
10.
>This is a beeeeetch!
-
11.
"Alright, let's check the area. Maybe I can find some door or window around"
-
12.
>You two walk around the big library
-
13.
>A while later, you two find a basement window
-
14.
>It has enough space for you two to get in
-
15.
"Well, let's do this"
-
16.
>You remover your blazer, tie it around your hand, and break the window
-
17.
>"Norman, that's illegal!"
-
18.
"I've been through a lot tonight. It won't hurt or help more charges on me"
-
19.
>You go in
-
20.
"Are you coming or not?"
-
21.
>"No. I told you is illegal"
-
22.
"Purple, I can't do this without you. I need your help"
-
23.
>She looks dubious about this
-
24.
"Tell you what. If you help me with this, I'll help you in whatever shenanigans you can get into"
-
25.
>"Sunset already helps me with that"
-
26.
"Ok, then tell me what you want"
-
27.
>She thinks for a few moments, and then answers
-
28.
>"I want you to get in touch with our friends again. No Lifeinvader relations, no Snapgap short stories. Actual touch: calls and occasional visits"
-
29.
>Goddammit, are you talking with Purple or with Pinkie?
-
30.
"Deal"
-
31.
>She comes down
-
32.
>"Pinkie just told me about her boyfriend Dan. I hope you like him when he comes in a week"
-
33.
"Gee, I can't hardly wait"
-
34.
>You two walk around the basement, and find the door to the library
-
35.
>You open it, and the same feeling of exposure and helpness come to you
-
36.
>In an instintic motion, you hug Purple
-
37.
>"Norman, are you ok?"
-
38.
>You take a deep breath
-
39.
"Purple, I don't feel too brave now. Please don't let go my hand, ok?"
-
40.
>"Huh, ok"
-
41.
"Thank you. I mean it"
-
42.
-
43.
>Well, now that you are inside, you need to know where to go
-
44.
"Can you give me some directions?"
-
45.
>"Sure"
-
46.
"Where would be more likely a hipster to be?"
-
47.
>"Hipster?"
-
48.
"Someone like Scott"
-
49.
>"Oh... Well, a lot of those read at the seats close to the windows. They smoke a lot and leave a funny smell"
-
50.
"Unlikely. Scott was into the EX, he never liked tobacco or pot"
-
51.
>"Ah. The study room? There's an old typewriter there"
-
52.
"It's a good start, let's go"
-
53.
>A few moments later, you are at the study room
-
54.
>Underground and ghost writers are in the shelves, nothing that interesting
-
55.
>There's a small cd-player with a copy of "Neutral Milk Hotel" in there
-
56.
>Scott never liked cds. He said they lost their coolness in the 2000s
-
57.
>Checking the typewriter, there is a paper on. You read "wrong place"
-
58.
"Wrong place?"
-
59.
>A thunder lights up the library
-
60.
>The walls are scratched or with holes, and blood trails point to purple
-
61.
>On top of her it reads "SHE IS NEXT"
-
62.
>The flash is over, and you see Purple still hooked on a book
-
63.
>Better leave this area
-
64.
"Purple, we are moving. He isn't here"
-
65.
>"Aww"
-
66.
"You can keep the book if you want to read it"
-
67.
>"Yay!"
-
68.
-
69.
>After being away from there, you never left Purple's hand for a moment
-
70.
>Why didn't you think of this before? He is most likely to be in the forbidden section!
-
71.
>The door is locked with a card reader
-
72.
"Alright Purple. Give me your library card"
-
73.
>"Um... I can't"
-
74.
"Why not?!"
-
75.
>"you have my hand, and I'm holding my book with the other"
-
76.
"Damn it, leave the book"
-
77.
>"But I don't have a bookmark!"
-
78.
"Read the page number"
-
79.
>"This book doesn't have enumeration"
-
80.
"Fuck!"
-
81.
>Reuniting all the courage you have, you let Purple's hand go
-
82.
"Pass your card quickly"
-
83.
>She does it, and the door opens
-
84.
>Inside the room, there's nothing satanic. Just forbidden books
-
85.
>Cancer's tropic, The Catcher in the Rye, Lolita, Steal this book...
-
86.
"There's nothing here. Let's go Purple"
-
87.
>There's no answer
-
88.
>You turn around
-
89.
"Purple?"
-
90.
-
91.
>You are completely alone
-
92.
>If the feel of exposure and loneliness was big already, now it's gargantuan
-
93.
>You walk back until your back hits the bookcase
-
94.
>A few books fall, but one caught your eye
-
95.
>Steal this book
-
96.
>You take it, and read some of it to remove your fears
-
97.
>So far, it's a 70s extreme left book about a hippie giving the finger to the system by telling how to rob, how to make bombs, how to live in communes, and even how to get a free buffalo without too much hassle or so much needed IDs or bureaucracy in the middle
-
98.
>Most techniques are obsolete thanks to the technology booming of the 80s and 90s, but the index caught your eye
-
99.
>Survive, Fight, and Free: the three sections that will grant you success
-
100.
>And right now, you have to survive the night, fight Scott, and free Purple!
-
101.
>You steal the book, and use your phone's light to see your way
-
102.
>Whatever made Purple dissapear, it made the library darker too. You can barely see what is in front of you
-
103.
>A few feet later, you find a good hiding spot, so you hide and start screaming
-
104.
"Hey! My hands are better than your hooves!"
-
105.
>No answer
-
106.
"If alicorns are so smart, why are they keeping making mistakes?"
-
107.
>Still no answer
-
108.
"Goddammit purple!"
-
109.
>Nothing
-
110.
>You leave the place
-
111.
"Purple, where are you?"
-
112.
*PLAF*
-
113.
>The eco made something sound loud
-
114.
-
115.
>Ok, this is getting real
-
116.
>You walk around the corridors, getting more darker and darker
-
117.
>You can barely register if you are even walking on something, but it must be the right direction
-
118.
"Purple, are you there?"
-
119.
>The lack of answers doesn't help your self-esteem
-
120.
>An insane idea comes to your head
-
121.
"Go fuck yourself Scott"
-
122.
>...
-
123.
"Oh, so now you are some sort of Interdimentional God. There are shitload of those in the Lovecraft Mythos. And you know how popular they are!"
-
124.
>...
-
125.
"Let alone having a cult to call you. You know how many Chtulu cults are in this state alone?"
-
126.
>Some rumbling is heard from afar
-
127.
"Aha! And who does extasis in a library? The studio can't be used as a club and rape date area. You forgot the strobelights, you clubbing fan"
-
128.
>*PLAFF* *PLAFF* *PLAFF*
-
129.
>Some books falled
-
130.
>You walk a few steps before hitting a book
-
131.
>You look down, and it's only a light novel
-
132.
>You check your surroundings, and see another fallen book
-
133.
>You take it, and see another book in front
-
134.
-
135.
"Ohhhh, spooky books. Fuck you Scott, any postergeist would have done that a lot of times"
-
136.
>The rumbling gets closer
-
137.
>You drop the book and go back to the front desk
-
138.
>Checking the desk, there are a couple of scissors
-
139.
>You take the big one, and look at the corridors
-
140.
>Even though the windows are open, the library is really dark
-
141.
"Come on Scott, a dark filter wasn't cool in the fotography class, and it isn't cool now"
-
142.
>The rumbling gets noisy in the back of the library
-
143.
"If that's how you want to play"
-
144.
>You go all the way to the back of the library
-
145.
>The books are all over the floor, except for one in a pedestal
-
146.
>It has a purple cover
-
147.
>You go all the way to it, and read the title
-
148.
"Help me?"
-
149.
>A giant spark lights the place up, and you are standing in a graveyard
-
150.
>Someone grabs you by the back, and starts slamming your body against the tombstones
-
151.
>Another spark happens, and you can see the tombs of your friends
-
152.
"NO!"
-
153.
>You get rid of the grapping of the strange man: it's the another you
-
154.
>You punch back, but whatever the place you are, it's his domain
-
155.
>He bounces all your hits, and punches your chest
-
156.
>You fly away to some tombstones, and he points somewhere
-
157.
>Purple is chained to some sort of cruxifix
-
158.
>He makes a "death" sign, and walks towards her direction
-
159.
>You have to do something!
-
160.
-
161.
>You pick yourself quickly, and drag fast to the other you
-
162.
>You grab the scissors, and stab him in the ass
-
163.
"I been told I am a pain in the ass, asshole!"
-
164.
>He just flaps you away, and you fly a few steps back
-
165.
>You stand up
-
166.
"Hey retard!"
-
167.
>He turns around annoyed
-
168.
>You take your gun out, and shoot him in the eyesocket
-
169.
>He recoils in pain
-
170.
"I think you can see the point I'm trying to make now"
-
171.
>You walk to Purple and check the chains
-
172.
"Hey Purple, wake up"
-
173.
"... Ugh, Norman?"
-
174.
"Don't worry, I'll get you out of here"
-
175.
>"Norman, watch out!"
-
176.
>You turn only to be grabbed by your copycat
-
177.
>He throws you back to the center of the graveyard, and makes a somersault, landing on your body
-
178.
"AHHH!!"
-
179.
>The copy leaves you, and walks towards Purple
-
180.
>"Norman! Help me!"
-
181.
"H-hey, idiot!"
-
182.
>He turns around a little curious now
-
183.
"I'm still standing!"
-
184.
-
185.
>You can barely keep up, but you still have an idea
-
186.
>If he is a copy, maybe he falls for this
-
187.
>Brad always got you with this
-
188.
"Look! Rarity is naked!"
-
189.
>Whatever you did, it was a bad idea
-
190.
>The graveyard scenery dissapears, and only the black void is there
-
191.
>>"... Rarity?"
-
192.
>Tears are coming from him
-
193.
>>"You know Rarity?"
-
194.
>The copy just moves his head erraticaly, searching for the Aryan Beauty
-
195.
>>"Rarity! Rarity! Where are you Rarity?!"
-
196.
>The copy shows you his back
-
197.
>This is your chance!
-
198.
>You go behind, and stab him in the neck
-
199.
>The copy barely acknowledge your attack. He is still looking for her
-
200.
>You make a few twists until the blade gets inserted in his spine, and you cut it
-
201.
>>"Rari-! I.... So-"
-
202.
>The flash appears again, and you are back in the library
-
203.
>Purple is with you, holding your hand
-
204.
>"Norman? Wha- where are we?"
-
205.
"I think we returned to the library"
-
206.
>You look at the pedestal with the book
-
207.
>It reads "Grogar: mythos and legends"
-
208.
"Scott said he stole his powers from this Hellbeast. This book should help us"
-
209.
>You take your jacket off, and wrap the book with it
-
210.
"We should get going. I don't need to return this volume for a while"
-
211.
>You two go back to the basement, and leave through the window
-
212.
>Moments later, you drive back to HQ
-
213.
-
214.
>Back at HQ, you meet everyone and reunite the objects together
-
215.
"Alright, this should be enough"
-
216.
N: But what about Scott? He didn't tell us about the state of our agents
-
217.
SS: Plus, with all this, he can get enough power to probably kill all of us
-
218.
TS: Norman, are you sure this is the only way?
-
219.
"He wanted us to play, and he had his fun. Now we have to make sure he has the other part of our deal"
-
220.
>Everyone enter at the hub. Mr. Smile is on the screen, and the place has been modified for a call ritual
-
221.
>You put a pair of leather gloves, and set the doll in the middle of the room
-
222.
>You tie the scarf around his neck, and put the fedora on his head
-
223.
>You open the book, and find the ritual
-
224.
"Alright, Purple: go to my front, avoid the circle. Nolan: go to my left. Sunset: to my right"
-
225.
>Everyone moves to their assigned spots
-
226.
"Ok. Here goes nothing"
-
227.
>You read the cursed text
-
228.
"Under the dark light, where life and death met, I shall call upon the beast who-shall-not-be-named. I bring thee thy hat, that He would be masked. I bring thee thy scarf, that He would be clothed. I bring thee thy doll, that He would be corporal. I shall tempt his spirit, that He speak with us"
-
229.
>The objects move
-
230.
"Come..."
-
231.
>The rattling increases
-
232.
"Come..."
-
233.
>The doll starts to stand up
-
234.
"Come!"
-
235.
S: Ugh... I hate wood bodies
-
236.
N: No way...
-
237.
SS: He really is here!
-
238.
TS: I can't believe it!
-
239.
S: Enough... Norman, what do you want?
-
240.
"I brought your stuff, now I want answers. Where are Ace and Coffee?"
-
241.
S: They are with me, of course. Or what? CoD plebs finally made you as dumb as a 13-year old?
-
242.
"Stop being such a hipster poser. I want evidence"
-
243.
S: Fine by me
-
244.
>"AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!"
-
245.
>A scream filled the room
-
246.
Mr. S: Agent Klatch!
-
247.
>Drops of blood fall from the roof
-
248.
S: Here is the evidence you needed. Now, you know what to do, right?
-
249.
"The train station"
-
250.
S: That's my pleb! A little slow, but catches on. See you later
-
251.
>The doll falls, and the candles go off
-
252.
>A few moments later, the lights of the room turn on
-
253.
-
254.
Mr. S: Norman, your status as the leader is reinstituted. You know your orders
-
255.
"Contain and destroy Scott, and bring back agents Thruster and Klatch"
-
256.
Mr. S: BOI is counting on you. Mr. Smile - out
-
257.
>The screen turns off
-
258.
"Everyone, to my car. We are ending this now"
