[ The room is BRIGHT YELLOW, as all the rooms you will enter are. Black tiles make up the floor, changing to your unit's color when pressure is placed on them. There is a button in the very center of the room standing on a podium; it's slightly smaller than palm-sized.]

Wanted to know if you wanted to fight for it. If so...

[The tonfa catches her glasses, knocking into her temple and skidding them off her face, and the momentum knocks her to the side as well. She catches herself, crouching low, and just stares up at him--past him. Lunges forward-- Stays low, nicking his leg for 1, but attempting to duck under and past him--she might be outclassed, but that doesn't mean she can't go for the button]

WIN: Nemesis
[ With the button pressed, the unit color-lit floor opens up to swallow the loser whole before the tile swings back up, as if a cartoonish trap door. The door unlocks with a click, sliding open for you.
After about thirty seconds, if the winner does not proceed to the next room, the floor tiles will start moving up one row of tiles at a time, starting from the back wall - they tilt to a steep angle that rounds at the edges, even gaining a slippery quality to ensure that none may be able to get a grip on the tiles or move backwards. The winner will eventually be pushed out of the room and into the next one. (To be unlocked when the next round unlocks.) ]
Hallucinations - Skylark, cw body horror, plant horror
But that bastard is clever, tricky, and when you catch him it's near Tokyo-F's amusement park, the most dangerous place of all—for the whole location's outskirts are lined with cherry blossom trees, the perfect place to go blossom viewing when it's in season.
But they're not in season, and you aren't afraid of a few dead trees. You brandish your tonfa, ready to fight—
Something pink catches your eye and you feel your knees buckle underneath your weight. He laughs, that obnoxious laugh of his that has your blood boiling, but you can't afford him any focus right now. Right now, the only thing you can do is stare at the largest tree in the area—the singular tree that's in full bloom in the middle of winter. It's impossible—this must be a trick, an illusion, but even so, you feel your body's control slipping away. You're left on your knees—humiliating—as the man comes over to kick you down and step on your back. Once again, you've been made a fool—once again, this bastard has incurred your wrath—but you can do nothing about it, as he kicks your body around until you're bloody.
When first blood finally spills, it seems a neighboring tree's grown closer; the roots twist up and out of the ground, the very branches itself reaching out as though to embrace you, a moth to a flame or perhaps a circling shark, and they pull you closer to its trunk. The embrace is tight, painful, as though they mean to squeeze the blood out of you. The branches are impatient though, and one pierces through your throat, smaller branches working through your veins and up and out of your mouth; you watch as new leaves spring to life, buds sprouting and blossoming into more sakura. Other roots follow suit, tendrils piercing into you to suck out your blood, and you're dragged into the hollow trunk—
The last thing you see is a little yellow bird flying in the sky. Ah—the bird will worry about you, you know?
