Fifteen minutes later, Dark Macc finally did leave, leaving Macc to...

Hey! I sent Cloud through a plot hole, who's narrating now?

I am.

Exdeath? But I thought you were burnt to ash!

I got better.

...will that joke ever die?

Probably not.

In any case, I guess we're off to find Dark Macc...

Okay, I'm ready!

Hey Gil, when did you get back?

Right after Dark Macc left.

Figures. Well, I think it's a good idea to split up, so we'll have a better chance of locating Dark Macc. Gilgamesh, Ultros, you're with me. The rest of you...

Wait wait wait, I'm confused. Why would you take those two losers instead of someone you can count on?

Hey!

Well somebody's got to keep an eye on them. Besides, you should be able to do something on your own, unlike these two.

Hey!!

Alright, I'll head straight to the rooftop and work my way down. You guys search the lower floors first.

Awright, leave it to me!

Don't you mean "us"?

Yeah, sure, whatever. *leaves with Gogo*

Ummm, Macc? Question: How are we gonna get to the rooftop when the elevator's busted?

*points to the stairs*

You've gotta be kidding! It's 40 floors, you expect us to walk all the way up there?

No, I expect you to run! *begins to form an energy ball*

I'm going, I'm going! *runs up the stairs*

No need to threaten me, Macc... I happen to enjoy running. Seeya! *runs after Ultros*

Coming, Kunoichi?

Ooooh, aren't you a cute wittle Pika-Wika? Yes you are!

Chu? *blushes*

...this is just too sweet for my tastes. I liked her better when she was cold-hearted and psychotic. But I know better than to disturb her now... *flies up the stairs*

And so, Macc, Ultros and Gilgamesh reached the top floor of the HQ. Eventually...

Here we are, at the top floor of the HQ.

Why thank you Gilgamesh, we can always count on you to give us the information we need the least.

You're welcome.

Now then, this is the 40th floor, the rooftop, and it seems empty enough out here. Now, since there isn't a 39th floor...

Wait a minute, why isn't there a 39th floor?

Because I don't like that number.

Fair enough.

Anyway, I guess we'll check the 38th floor then... the floor where the talkshow set is.

Hmmm, what a coincidence.

Yeah, imagine that... you know, it's almost like someone's getting less inventive...

Not a word, you two. Not a word.
