Let Nanami go immediately! My friends in the real world are waiting for me to return!
Pouting, Nanami swings her chainsaw around, and all the abnormal programs dare not approach her.
Our kind must obtain physical bodies<//AVATAR> before Gestalt<//CAGE> removes us. We will replace the arrogant Constructs' minds and become whole.
And all of us here need you, Nanami<//#%?#%?>... We all want to be your friends<//??SEE??>...
The flocking programs are all speaking nonsense and bowing to Nanami.
Is... is that so? Do you all need Nanami—do you all want to be Nanami's friend...?
Friend<//??SEE??>! Friend<//??SEE??>!
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of the line. Remember to bring your belongings with you, especially the socks! Don't forget the socks!
The hat-wearing program bows to Chrome and points to the square before them. There he finds a large crowd of abnormal programs gathering together, alongside some panicking external consciousnesses.
Why are you helping us?
Why, why... Why is a raven like a writing desk?
I'm sorry—what?
You don't know the answer, which means you aren't mad—that's good! The world doesn't need more madmen. You don't need it, and we don't need it either.
Chrome shakes his head and looks at you, confused.
We should KEEP wasting time and NOT destroy those abnormal programs!
Huh? Oh... right. Our priority should be rescuing Nanami. What's happening right now must be connected to those programs capturing her.
But before you all charge the enemies, you see the abnormal programs parting, and among them is the Queen Program and Nanami walking together slowly, hand in hand.
Did you... did you come here to get Nanami?
Nanami seems to want to run toward you, but the Queen Program puts a hand on her shoulder and holds her back.
Do not hurry. Maybe they<//FLUTE> don't really want you to return to the real world<//NEW WORLD>?
H-how's that possible?!
You have brought them much trouble on this April Fool's Day<//CELEBRATE>. Perhaps they no longer see you as a friend<//??SEE??>...
That's RIGHT! We DO mind! Nanami, we DON'T want you back!
Do... do you hate Nanami that much, Lucia?
YES! We'll ALWAYS hate Nanami! EVERYONE thinks you're annoying! Aargh—
Liv tries to stop talking when she realizes how she sounds, but she is too late.
Lee, Nanami has brought you so much trouble... You must hate Nanami as well...
...
Lee knows he cannot possibly explain himself, so he instead chooses not to say anything. But to Nanami, it seems like Lee is just silently acknowledging what she has said.
It's not like that... Nanami, they are...
Nanami shakes her head and steps back, her expression devastated.
If no one likes Nanami, then maybe Nanami should stay here... At least the programs here said they needed me. They said they wanted to be my friend...
Before your voice reaches Nanami, the massive Queen Program stands in your way.
Of course these people are the enemies who hate Nanami<//#%?#%?>, which means they are our enemies as well... We shall remove you from here...
Remove<//BEHEADED>! Remove<//BEHEADED>!
