Here's chapter 8 of this story. Sit back, relax and enjoy.


Revelations - Doctor Monty's Perfect World.

Nacht Der Untoten.

The final film reel appeared on the ground as they heard Sophia's voice, which was filled with pain.

Richtofen picked up the film reel.

"Yes! We got it. That's it for now. We've collected all of the film reels. Now, we must play the third film reel at origins. This way, my friends." Richtofen said before he went to the portal that took him to Mob of the dead.

Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai followed Richtofen to Mob of the dead to play the final film reel at origins.

Mob of the dead.

"So Richtofen, once all of this is over, what will happen to us?" Dempsey asked.

"What's wrong Dempsey? You say that as if something bad may happen to us." Richtofen said.

"Look, I'm just saying, if something bad does happen, we gotta be prepared for it." Dempsey said.

"Dempsey's right. Who knows what terror lies ahead of us. We must be cautious." Takeo said.

"You better not be leading us into another trap, doctor Richtofen." Nikolai said.

"Do not worry my friends. Once all of this is over, we will be alright. Now, come on, we have work to do." Richtofen said as he went to origins, along with Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai.

Origins.

Once the crew entered origins, they started having flashbacks.

"Alright guys, we gotta get this little girl out of wherever she is...woah...what just came out of my mouth?" Dempsey asked.

"Long ago, we came together as enemies. We've come so very far." Takeo said.

"I've had many dreams within these trenches. I say dreams, but really they were more like visions. Starting with the one where Maxis begged me to remove his brain." Richtofen said.

"The child...Samantha...we did save her, I remember." Nikolai said when suddenly, Samantha started talking to them again.

"Oh yes, you did saved me. It's not like I wanted you fools to come and save me. If you wanted to, you could've just left me to die, just like Richtofen left you three to die at the moon with me!" Samantha said.

Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai looked at Richtofen when she said that.

"Don't listen to her. We have a job to do, we have no time for distractions." Richtofen said.

"Deny all you want Richtofen. You know this is true. It doesn't matter what you do, you're still a monster and that's all you ever will be!" Samantha said as her voice left their heads.

"Do you mind explaining to us, what the heck was all that about, Richtofen?" Dempsey asked.

"I do not remember traveling to the moon with you. That is impossible." Takeo said.

"She said you left us to die in the moon with her. Is this true, Richtofen?" Nikolai asked.

Richtofen was silent, not saying a word. He sighed.

"It doesn't matter what happened in the past. What does matter is what we will do in the future. Let's go." Richtofen said as he went to put the film reel into the player.

"That man is so secretive. He never tells us anything, at all." Nikolai said as he followed Richtofen.

"Has Richtofen really changed for the better? Or for the worst?" Takeo asked.

"At this point, I have no idea what's going on inside that man's head. Let's go." Dempsey said as he and Takeo followed Nikolai.

Richtofen placed the third film reel on the player and pressed play.

The audio was a conversation between two people, just like the second film reel.

"This is doctor Ludvig Maxis. Beginning the preliminary trials, for the S.O.P.H.I.A. Also known as, Sophia." Maxis said as he turned on the machine.

"Oh my god. Maxis. What happened? What's happening?" Sophia asked.

"Don't worry Sophia, everything is alright. How do you feel?" Maxis asked.

"I...I feel...nothing...It's so dark in here...w-what have you done to me?" Sophia asked.

"I'm sorry Sophia, but this was the only way I knew how to save you." Maxis explained.

"Oh Maxis...why...oh my god, why..." Sophia said before the film reel stopped playing.

Then they begin to actually hear her.

"Someone...help...failure...failure...assistance required...Maxis." Sophia said.

"Oh no, it's not the annoying talking machine, is it?" Nikolai asked.

"If you mean Sophia, then yes. She's back. I'm sure Maxis will be happy to see her...it." Richtofen said.

"The machine has returned to us. She asks for assistance. We should help her." Takeo said.

"So, the robot chick is back, huh? Well, this should be interesting." Dempsey said.

"Quickly, if we are to help her, we must use four of the corruption engines to bring her into existence. Everyone spread out and find the corruption engines, now." Richtofen said.

Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai nodded and went to find the corruption engines, while Richtofen did the same.

Nacht Der Untoten.

Later, after using the corruption engines on Sophia, Richtofen, Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai went back to Nacht Der Untoten to bring her back into existence.

Richtofen placed his hand on Sophia and she appeared as a flying metal robot.

"Attempting to locate Maxis. Signal identified. I must go to him, I require your assistance." Sophia said.

"Well, I don't have anything else better to do, so...let's do this." Dempsey said.

"If this Sophia is to help us on our mission, then I accept it." Takeo said.

"I think we should follow her. She seems to know what she's doing." Richtofen said.

"This female talking machine is really selfish. Does she not see that the universe is collapsing?" Nikolai asked.

Richtofen, Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai followed Sophia to the portal that took them to Der Eisendrache.

Samantha's Room. Gate worms. Runes of creations. They are getting close to the end. But what will happen to them once the war is over?

Peace out.
