Chapter Text
Yuri blinked.
Didn't she...
Die?
That's what that had to be, right?
She was eaten by a swarm of maggots. Her head was cut off.
But how does she know this??
Clearly, looking around, Gregor and his team had already left.
But, they couldn't have expected her to survive.
She heard what sounded like some kinda angel and saw a light. If that isn't a death experience then... What is?
Yuri stands up from lying on the floor... Though not without some difficulty... As she realizes that her own body has... Changed.
Haha... Wow. After she somehow escaped a nightmare, she's thrown into another one.
Her body was... A nightmare itself.
"Was it so wrong that I survived?"
Bones seem to protrude from her body, skin missing, yet it didn't hurt... It was just... Her body.
"I didn't want to die..."
And some of those flesh areas, where the skin was missing... She swore things were living in there.
It was like she was a walking corpse... Something that shouldn't be alive...yet still was.
What is going on here?
Yuri travels back upstairs, easily defeating the rest of the creatures that somehow still survived.
And it's when a... Thought crosses her mind, that's...
She's dealt with intrusive thoughts before, but somehow this was... Different. No... It was more like an... Urge.
Of course, Yuri was not that type of person. She wasn't doing that.
She would be able to do it against an abno, that she wouldn't mind.
But to do it against a human?
...
When did she start viewing herself as... Not human?
She's... Still human in some ways, right?
...
Could it...
Did she...
Distort?
No... that can't be the case, right?
She's still... her. She's still Yuri.
A "nugget" that survived that burial, even if she lost... almost everything.
And now it seems, almost like she's lost the human.
...
Is this how Gregor felt?
Oh lord...
How would she even... survive now?
Not only was she bound to a fallen wing, but she also looks like this now.
She doesn't even know how exactly she looks, she just knows she's changed.
She sits down, outside the door of the old Lobomoty Corp branch, and sighs.
