"So here's my plan. We fake your death." "What? Why?" Ryoko asked. "That is the ONLY way you get out of here. Just play along if you want to live." She pulled him up and walked him through the hall. "Oh, and you'd BETTER keep your promise. Or I'll tell everyone in all of Octopolis everything that you said." She whispered. He had forgot she was still an Elite and wasn't afraid to kill him, no matter what he said. "Of course." He responded. They walked down the hall. He noticed another Elite walking down the halls. "Hey, where's this Squid going?" "He's a murderer. He told me the whole thing. I'm taking him down to the Burning Pit." The Elite swiftly responded. "Alright. Serves you right, filthy Squid." He was getting a MAJOR sense of Deja Vu now. He decided it would be a good idea to play along. "Noo.. please.. Don't kill me…" Ryoko wailed. "Should've thought of that before you killed all those Octarians." The Elite sneered. "Enough out of you, time to die!" She shouted towards him. While they were walking, he couldn't help but ask. "What's your name? It would be easier if you told me. My name is Ryoko." A long pause. "Mine's Agent 6524531." "I meant like a birth name" he asked. "I don't really remember mine. But my peers call me Arin." "Arin.. I'll call you Arin now." Ryoko started to smell burning.. And Squids. "What's that smell?" He inquired. "The Burning Pit. If you smell Squid, it's all burnt down here. There have been people like you. But they've done worse things, trust me. Like murders." He gulped. "Alright, enough out of you, get in here!" Arin shouted. "Please! Mercy!" He played along. "Quick, throw in your goggles." She demanded. He threw in his goggles, and the lava made a hissing noise. "That should throw them off for a while. Coast's clear. Let's go." They treaded through the hall. "There's the gate. Hurry, get back to Inkopolis. I'll stay here, but come back, GOT IT?" "Okay, I promise." "You'd better, Inkboy."
