CERBERUS PATH: SAMPLE EPISODE
Cerberus' words trail off as he stares right over my shoulder.
I can't help but follow the look right to Cyprin's office.
Cyprin and May are an inch from each other's faces, arguing loudly enough that it carries through the door.
(Cyprin never raises their voice. Ever.)
Cerberus: "We need to go. Now."
Player Character: "What?"
The puppy eyes are gone, replaced with hard determination.
His hand tightens around my arm.
Something cold seizes around my heart in that instant, hairs standing up along the back of my neck.
Through the far glass door, I can see a pair of women quickly approaching the office.
They're average dressed, but something feels off.
The instinct to run suddenly starts to claw at the inside of my skull.
The guards near the elevator don't even blink, gesturing back and forth.
It was like they didn't even see them.
(Security's right there. Why aren't they doing anything?)
Cerberus: "Come on, come on, please! I need you to come with me!"
PC: "We can pull the alarm. Someone will--"
Cerberus: "No, they won't. Trust me, they'll get torn apart!"
***
I hear a bang, and the train car sways.
While I scrabble to keep the files from falling all over the floor, there's a shout.
I look up just in time to see a man up front shove the person next to him.
Man 1: "What's your problem!?"
Man 2: "What's yours, asshole?"
One of them throws a punch and suddenly the fight's a frenzy.
A woman sitting in the opposite seat swings her purse like a bat, clocking the taller man in the back.
Even the girl with the broken leg next to her gets in a hard jab with her crutch.
(For no reason. Just like Cyprin and May.)
