"No, I must go."
The land is shrouded in eternal darkness, and she watched the Agels drop asleep one by one.
Sai and Wilma... they don't believe my words about Maxrage, and this serves them right! Inori's thought flashed by before disappearing.
Inori was supposed to be expecting this!
I knew it, it should be Maxrage! He comes to kick the gobbess out! she wanted to think. But no, Inori's fear quickly surpassed her faith. That black moving blob of something was not what Maxrage would create...
Inori has read accounts of Maxrage devastating her homeland Rapyuta, how the moon turned into blood and dripped, how the sea was an endless black void and the sky blinding crimson, not the other way around. Here it was just all dark. And black. She remembered cuddling with her siblings Zeta and Moe as the royal teachers read this story to her, and how Ino the youngest sibling was the only one brave enough to stand up and shout "I love that!"
Now, faced with this catastrophe... Inori isn't so sure anymore.
But there was nobody she cared about here, right? Moe was already safe, in Rapyuta... Moe didn't come to the goobie world for this goovolution, and Inori realized that was the safest outcome. What about her older brother Zeta who did come? Inori glanced around and didn't catch a glimpse of him. Maybe he's already safe.
There, there. Nothing to worry about. Inori took off as fast as she could, her hair billowing in the wind, her paws not resting for one bit. She felt her necklace with the crest of Rapyuta - the crest of Maxrage - beating against her chest.
Save me, Maxrage, she muttered to herself again and again, not turning back to watch. Looking back consumes both time and sanity.

Zeta was in the other direction, taking a walk with Wilma (another goobie from Rapyuta). His up-to-nothing-good little sister Inori must be looking for Maxrage elsewhere... that girl has such a weird obssession.
"It's pretty nice up here, isn't it?" Wilma hopped up to him (they're a bunny goob so they can hop). "I mean, it's... dark and peaceful and... wahhh what happened to them?" Wilma suddenly jumped as high as the sky - and the skies are really high!
Zeta, puzzled, looked in the direction Wilma pointed. There was
the agel he just talked to this morning. He remembered her pale lilac fur, her blue halo and wings... she looked like a fairy. He forgot what her name was, Silva or Sapphire or something. And judging from Wilma's words, they didn't remember it either. The Agel was fighting something, her paws clawing at the sky, though her eyes were closed. Was she trapped in a nightmare? Zeta and Wilma quickly approached her.
"Hey, are you...ok?" Wilma patted the Agel's back, but as soon as they touched her she fell, flopped to the ground, and started twitching hysterically.
"Oh no she - you -" Zeta nearly screamed.
"No, she's alive, she'll wake up..." Wilma pawed at the agel and looked up. "Look-"
Zeta also looked up.
The sky and earth were melting into one, all dripping into black tar. A huge pillar - was it hate? was it poison? was it just a giant goo? was forming at the horizon. And it was growing.
"No," Zeta muttered under his breath the name of the one he didn't make sure was safe. "Inori."
The ground underneath them was shaking, the earth cracking, and black tar was quick to fill the cracks.
"Wilma!" Zeta turned around to his friend. Their eyelids are half-shut, and they wobbled while trying to run. "No, no, no," Zeta ran, but Wilma was lagging behind, they didn't see another figure rising behind them.
"RUN!"
Zeta couldn't believe it.
It was that fallen goob, that Agel, doing everything, her eyes closed, her head shaking, to get up on her feet, raise her paws, and push Wilma towards him.
Wilma traced a perfect parabola and landed right in front of Zeta. While the goob who pushed them fell... and never got up.
"WILMA!"
Zeta wanted to shout the unknown savior's name, but he couldn't.
Zeta saw more shapes running beside him, some frantic, some dragging something behind, some looking back. They all had glimmering goo tails and horns. Whatever that thing is, it seems to be affecting all the Agels, while the diabs are all fine. He saw a small maroon figure with white hair way ahead of him.
Inori... the sight of his sister being fine calmed him down.
It was too late to save anyone else, and now even Wilma was falling asleep. But that goob pushed Wilma towards him, which means she wanted him to...
Zeta bit onto Wilma's tail and began dragging them away.
He kept his eyes on the shape in front of him.
Inori... don't wait, I'll come to you.[517 words]
