the final threshold

[The entirety of the past week (at least you think it's only been a week) has been...odd, even for you dead folks. Seeing between two different timelines, not being able to haunt your friends, seeing your own murder play out before your very eyes, BJ still exists- it's, quite frankly, A Lot.

But today things feel different. There's a stillness to everything, an absolute silence to the Opera House that feels empty and alien. Even if you focus you can't see or hear the living. It's like they're gone completely.

If that's not weird enough you suddenly hear BJ's voice echoing through every inch of the Opera House.]

Guys? HEY, YOU GUYS! YOU MIGHT WANNA GET OUT HERE TO THE CEMETERY!

Now we're talking!

[Angus twirls his hammer around like a baton before setting it to his side. His head stands tall as he watches the five remaining survivors and Evan - The Phantom - Whoever, really. A deep breath, and he invites the other ghosts around him.]

There are survivors, they're coming home.
They float in darkness, they're not alone.
Now here they come, now here we come.
Now they will be received.

[From where Stephen stands, he...takes a deep breath. A glance at Riley, then Evan, and...then forwards.]

No one could outrun the crash
They reduced some hearts to rubble, and others broke to ash
But with a blinding burning light
We stand and fight, to reach you out there

There was no signal from where we are.
All failed contact, no life disturbed.
Hovering above, hovering above gravity's lure

[Claudine grins.]

We have the force to fight
You have our blinding light
We have the will to win
Together, we'll defend~

[Ah, the swell in Spinel's chest. Time to sing.]

Knocking out the sun, with a brand new transmission
A force that can't be heard, coming in louder than words!
Knocking out the sun, with a brand new transmission
A force that can't be heard, coming in louder than words!

We have the force to fight.
You have our blinding light.
Our feelings more than heard,
Coming in louder than words!

[Okay he takes back what he said about helping the Phantom probably, let's just kick his butt.]

There are survivors, we're coming home.
We float in darkness, you're not alone.
Now here we come, now here we come.
You cannot be deceived!
