Cecil: If you wanna be a hero or not?

Mary: ....I don't know.

Cecil: ...Come with me, you can come with us if you want (YN).

Cecil leave the room, as both Mary and (YN) were wondering what Cecil wanted to show them, so Mary got off the bed, changed into her clothes and her and (YN) following Cecil....as they did, they soon arrive with him in a huge room, nothing but white, everything blank...

Cecil: Mary...just wanted to let you know your mother heard everything your father said. So you don't have to go through the trouble explaining it to her.

(YN): Wait what??

Mary: What?! She heard everything?! How can you do that??!

Cecil: Don't you think she deserves the truth?

Mary: Y-Yea but-

Cecil. Your mother knew he killed the guardians, but she was holding out hope for a good reason for it, so was I...better for her to know everything about Nolan.

Mary: *sighs* ...Maybe your right.

(YN): Say old man, where are we?

Cecil: Oh right, lights.

Then, lights turn on and to yet reveal a huge room around them, scientists working on experiments, and yet to see Mm to have Immortal with them, patching his Jody back and up and experimenting his body...

Cecil: That's enough.

Soon the room goes white blank again...

Mary: H-Hey Woah! The hell just happen?!

(YN): Yea, everything went white again, are we ima. Room or what??

Cecil: The water in America drinks so conveniently that their tabs is lasted for their chemical wombs, that inhibit the abilities to certain frequencies of light, and are used in this room.

Mary: So it's all invisible?

(YN): Or holographic?

Cecil: You two, and all around America, did not have the ability to see things through. You'd two be surprised how often we use this.

Mary/(YN): Woah.

Cecil: ...Mary, to answer your question you told (YN)...we'd monitor your father until he left the solar system. He didn't change his projectors so he's going somewhere damn far. Which means....we might need a replacement.

Mary: ....N-No...not now, not yet.

(YN): ...

Cecil: ...Your father never leave me any options Mary. Even if we have (YN)...we may not know if we need you too.

Mary: I know...I'm sorry it's just...too much.

Cecil: I should have never brought this up and have soon....anyways, let's get you and your mother home then.

Cecil walks away, and Mary feeling down for not even thinking about if she even wants to continue being a hero...(YN) feels her, so he cheers her up to hold her hand...Mary softly smiles and blushes as she and him both walked with Cecil.....
