The teams' response following the Flashbang's explosion was unexpectedly quick. Immediately following the blinding blast, Cloud unleashed a lightning bolt from the cloudless facsimile of the sky and the bird and bear duo rammed into the sun at high speed before ripping the lunar blade from his eye. [color=Magenta][i]Nice touch, though a bit much I think.[/i][/color] Mister Shine screamed in pain, his beam having faded from existence over the course of the battle. Even as he began to disappear as Marx had before him, the Titan had already begun turning on the moon, fully expecting him to do his duty now that the source of his greatest torment was gone.

Instead, he simply allowed them through the next door, informing them that to remain would mean the end of their journey and the failure of their mission, a wave of his hand causing it to appear. At this point, she wasn't sure whether or not to congratulate Frisk for getting one of the two to let them through or berate him for apologizing before they fled through the opening. The Striker didn't even bother commenting on the door them leaving the door open for the moon, who never followed, even as it shut.

Silence reigned as the group gathered themselves and, as she checked the ammo in her weapons except for the Bolt-Caster, Alicia held a silent respect for the moon's reasoning for not coming. He had known that if he came with the group, he would do his job. [color=Magenta][i]Honest, even if he were a villain. May he find rest after this.[/i][/color] Ahead of them the stairway was filled with a golden glow and she readied her Doctrine of Passing, a click sounding through the stairwell as she racked a new round into the auto rifle's chamber. [color=Magenta]"Frisk, there can be no hesitation this time. We go in and we move through. What happened back there was nearly fatal, for all of us."[/color]

At this point, mincing words was only going to be a waste of the groups time, so the Titan cut straight to her point, deciding to make it clear where she stood. [color=Magenta]"We all have been told what the Virus does to it's hosts. Deedeedee won't listen to reason, he'll want to see us all eviscerated so that he can move on to conquering whatever his next target is. You need to accept that this next floor will be much the same, though minus the virus. Remember the whale's words, 'the guys after me aren't going to be willing to just let you past, you'll have to fight.' Can you accept that we will have to take another life?"[/color] Admittedly, she'd given a paraphrasing of the whale's words, but she wasn't anywhere near about to speak like he did. Besides that, their attempting to reason with Mister Bright had nearly gone south and would have gotten the Poppy Bros hurt had they failed to defeat the sun and moon bosses. Within the depths of her mind, Alicia wondered if Frisk could have lived with that knowledge, which was the only reason she hadn't mentioned it.
