A few minutes later…
After Isamu and her friends, Miyuki, Hikari and Nagi arrived and stopped in front of the chained exit, Haru gasped and widened her eyes in disbelief at the 4 different locks on the exit.
"Wow, so many locks…" said Haru.
"You had told us that we were locked in, but this is so far beyond any standard security measure, it's bizarre…" said Makoto with a slight frustrated look on her face.
"Yeah, some of us had the same reactions like you did when we see it, Makoto." said Rokuro as he nodded to Makoto.
"Yeah, even my picking skills were no match for them. We've been hoping that unlocking them all will get us out of here." said Morgana as he nodded to Makoto.
"Are you truly going to test it out? What if… the worse were to happen?" said Nagi concernly to Isamu.
"If that happens then we'll deal with it. Now, try using that key, Lady Isamu." said Morgana as he glance at Isamu.
"Yeah, I know, Morgana." said Isamu as she nodded to Morgana.
"Bravery like that is just what we'd expect from you, leader." said Goro as he smiled and nodded to Isamu.
Isamu took a deep breath, walked toward the locked entrance, stopped and take out and insert the key into the chain at the bottom to unlock it and right after she do so, the chain began to glowed brightly, which make Isamu quickly closed her eyes with her hand to avoid the light until it dimmed down and when Isamu lowered her hand and opened her eyes, she gasped and widened her eyes in surprise when she see that both the chain and the key are gone.
"…!" gasped Hikari in surprise as well.
"Sweet, it unlocked!" said Ryuji excitedly to the others.
"You did it, Isamu." said Akira as he glance and smiled at Isamu.
"Yeah. One down, 3 more to go." said Isamu with a nod of her head.
"To think, it would truly work!" said Nagi with a surprise look on her face.
"Heheh! You see-just as we suspected!" chuckle Morgana.
"So, does that mean our captor is that being called "Doe", since he had the key?" said Makoto with a pondering look on her face.
"We don't know if he's acting alone or not. But there's no mistake that he's involved in some way." said Goro.
"But then, why would he present us with the key? Plus he look like he was in pain too before he gave the key to us… I'm totally lost here." said Ann as she closed her eyes and shake her head a little.
"Y'know, if he has the keys, couldn't we just force him to spit out the rest of them? Like, why don't we corner Doe and just be all "Give us the keys… or else!" What do you think, Isamu?" suggested Ryuji as he glance at Isamu.
"Hm… I think it's a terrible idea because something tells me that Doe is a dangerous one and we need to be patient in getting the rest of the keys from him, Ryuji." said Isamu as she scowled at Ryuji.
"Oh, come on!" groaned Ryuji (which make Rokuro karate-chop the top of his head with his right hand).
"Stop with the groaning, Ryuji. If Isamu says no then we should listen to her." said Rokuro sternly to Ryuji (who rubbed his head and scowled at him).
"Yeah, I agreed with Isamu too. It wouldn't be smart for any of us to provoke Doe for the keys." said Ann as she nodded in agreement with Isamu.
"Yeah, he might go "Nnghhh" like he did earlier and explode… That'd be game over for all of us." said Futaba.
"That might be true and it'd suck for all of us if it happened. Better not take that chance." thought Isamu concernly in her mind.
"So what're we supposed to do about the other three locks, then?" said Ryuji.
"This is entirely conjecture on my part… But if changing the movie's ending led to Doe producing a key… Perhaps we only need to change 3 more movies? I mean, it seems to follow." said Makoto.
"You may be right again, Makoto." said Rokuro as he nodded to Makoto.
"Are there any other movies being shown in the theater, Nagi-san?" asked Haru as she glance at Nagi.
"There are 3 other ones, but they've not being viewable since the anomaly struck…" replied Nagi.
"Well, the numbers seem to match up, at least. What a conundrum this is. If only we had more intel…" sighed Makoto.
"Don't be so hard on yourself, Makoto. I'm sure we'll find those intel soon enough." said Akira reassuringly to Makoto (who glance and smiled gratefully to him while Hikari look down in silence).
"…Hikari? What's wrong?" asked Futaba as she noticed Hikari look down in silence.
"…Huh?" said Hikari as she glance up in confusion at Futaba.
"Oh-um, well… You looked like you wanted to say something…" said Futaba.
"Um… Here… I don't know if this is a clue or not, but… I've had this with me ever since I woke up here…" said Hikari before she took out and showed Futaba two piece of papers with some words written on the papers.
"Hm-what's this? Is it like the notebook you gave us earlier?" said Futaba curiously to Hikari about the 2 papers.
"An invitation…" said Nagi.
"Invitation?" said Miyuki with a confused look on her face.
"Please come see the movie, no matter what…?" W-Wait, what!? Is that letter supposed to be a threat?" gasped Futaba with a worry look on her face.
"That means Hikari was brought here by someone-or at least asked to come here! Maybe it really is that Doe guy after all!" said Ryuji.
"I-I don't know… I don't know anything… I'm so scared…" said Hikari fearfully to them.
"Hikari-chan. I understand just how uneasy you feel after you woke up and find out that you're alone in this theater… but there's no need for you to be worry and uneasy anymore because you've got Nagi-san and us with you now." said Isamu reassuringly to Hikari.
"She's right. Let's work together and we'll all leave this place, alright?" said Haru.
"A-Ah!" gasped Hikari before she clutched her head with her hands and with a grimace look on her face.
"Wh-What's wrong!? Did you remember something!?" said Futaba concernly to Hikari.
"There's a movie… that I need to watch here…" said Hikari weakly to Futaba before all of them heard a clear buzzing sound coming from somewhere in the theater.
"Hm!? Did you all hear that!?" said Yusuke with a surprised look on his face.
"Yeah, we did, Kitagawa-kun." said Miyuki as she nodded to Yusuke.
"We have an announcement for our customers. A new movie will begin showing in theater 2 momentarily. I repeat…" said a robotic female voice from the theater intercom.
"A new movie-just as we're talking about it? Should we check it out?" said Morgana.
"Yeah! Uh, the announcement said Theater 2, right?" said Ann.
"Yeah, that's what we heard from the theater intercom, Ann." said Akira.
"Allow me to guide you all there, then. Please follow me." said Nagi to Isamu, her friends and Miyuki before both she and Hikari turned around and guide them down the hallway toward Theater 2, arrived, open and went into Theater 2 and they all sat down in the third row seats to watch the new trailer of the new movie.
The new trailer first showed a tall and huge rocky cliff with dozens of trees and bushes on it near the clear, blue ocean before it showed several different scenes of the interior of the island that showed some more exotic trees, bushes, flowers with old and slightly rusted-looking metal gates with dozens of thin white lines on it and huge animal footprints on the ground before the ground start shaking and the animal who caused it reveal itself to be a huge white-skinned, yellow-eyed Tyrannosaurus Rex before the scene change again to reveal the entire island.
"On a remote island in the distant sea… There exists a theme park of living dinosaurs, revived through genetic manipulation by human scientists." said a male narrator's voice.
"Oh? This one has dinosaurs in it." said Yusuke.
"Yeah, you're right, Yusuke. But isn't this like a cheap copy of the old Jurassic Park and the new Jurassic World movies?" said Ann with a displeased look on her face.
"Totally, Ann-chan." said Miyuki as she nodded in agreement with Ann.
"True. But one thing I can't deny is my excitement and love of dinosaurs inside me, whether they're good or cheap copies of the good ones." thought Isamu with a huge smile on her face.
"I'm getting a bad feeling about this, Futaba-chan…" said Haru uneasily to Futaba.
"When the humans left, the island became a natural habitat for the once lost creatures. It was a land ruled by the ferocious carnivores, where the law of the jungle prevailed! Meanwhile, the helpless herbivores struggled to survive in this harsh world."
Dozens of green/feather-skinned, white-eyed, long black and brown-haired herbivores run away in worry and fear down a rocky pathway with trees on both sides of the pathway with the huge T-Rex roaring and chasing after them while dozens of fierce-looking grey-skinned, red-eyed Pteranodon with smirks on their faces flew over them in the sky.
"Desperate and powerless, they formed herds as they struggled to escape the carnivores…"
The herd of herbivores run on until they found and crossed an old wooden bridge together but right after most of them safely crossed the bridge and one of them turned around to glance and wait for the last one, the rope holding the bridge broke apart and caused the bridge to broke apart too but the one who waited for the last one managed to grab hold and saved the last one from falling to it's death.
"At this time, an evil rises from within the ranks: one that can't take a hint and fall in line! No one agrees with her, yet she continues to oppose the herd with her opinions!"
The herbivore who saved the last one from falling to it's death turned around and attempt to talk to her fellow herbivores about her opinion but got rudely ignored and disagreed by them before they all turned and walked away from the herbivore who voiced her opinion to them. When she saw that they turned and walked away from her, she quickly run forward past them and stopped in front of them to try to voiced her opinion to them again and again they ignored and disagreed her opinion, which caused her to weep about it.
"Numbers don't lied! The majority rules! A useless opinion voiced by a lone dissenter is nothing but a nuisance! Will the righteous majority ever be able to silence the evil minority and finally find peace and tranquillity within the "Paradise" of ancient legend!? The greatest, most massive dinosaur movie ever brought to screen: Junessic Land! Now showing!"
