....

* Hello, Retro.

Retro suddenly found himself standing in an empty black void. He blinked, before whirling around, only to be met with a giant screen which displayed only a field of red static.

“What the-!?” he blurted. “Red-Eye!”

* Now now, do not be alarmed. the tyrant said. '''* You are not actually here. I am merely projecting myself into your unconscious mind.'''

“Unconscious mind?” Retro said. “So...this is just a dream?”

* Precisely.

Retro sighed. “Whatever. You’ve already taken me prisoner I assume. What now?”

* Ah yes, about that...I have released you.

“wait what”

* I merely came to inform you that you have been returned to your primitive little ship.

“Tch. Primitive?” Retro folded his arms. “I’ll have you know that my ship is just as advanced as yours, if not a little more.”

'''* Yes. Right.' One could just taste'' the sarcasm hidden behind that calm voice.

“...anyway, why would you send me back?” Retro continued. “I don’t think you’d give me up so easily.” He narrowed his eyes.

* I have made an arrangement with Monika. Red-Eye said, to Retro’s surprise. * In exchange for her help in defeating The Author, I have allowed your freedom.

“Author, huh?” Retro remembered that Red-Eye hated that madman just as much as he did. But still, something wasn’t right. She had to be planning something secret.

'''* Yes. So be grateful that you are free. Otherwise, I could’ve just crushed all of your friends and locked you up forever for your crimes.'''

....

Retro looked downwards in shame.

'''* Now I must depart. You will now wake up.'''

“Wai-“

Suddenly, Retro woke up in the medical bay of his ship with a start. Instantly he headed for the bridge.
