Gus Gus, as you go to scramble and kick the mask you unfortunately realize that at this point part of your pants also got stuck in the escalator, and while you are able to free your foot from the shoe the forward motion rips off an entire leg of your pants. You fumble the kick and instead of kicking the mask down below, it goes straight up into the air and defying all odds lands straight on your face as you slip backwards and fall on your back. The woman who initially started screaming passes out.
Sammy, as you are heading down the escalator you see your former BFF Gina scurrying away down on the floor below you with the Victoria's Secret bag that Gino discarded. She rushes past the commotion of people who are assaulting the boy in Gino's jacket who you quickly realize is not Gino as you approach. It's just some crying white kid, and the suits who apprehended him are furiously conversing into their sleeves and looking around frantically. As you go to walk away, however, you recognize the woman who seems to be in charge and calling the shots is the same woman from the picture message you received of Brensen.
Ben, as you go to chase after the Trenchcoat Man, a hand reaches out and grabs your ankle. You come crashing down and through a table, but as you turn to face the person who did it to you, you see an abnormally large man whose face suddenly starts melting away to reveal what appears to be greenish scales and rows upon rows of sharp teeth.The crowd around you starts screaming in terror and fleeing, as the creature let's out a snarl and lifts a table over it's head and throws it at you.
GM: Derek-buddy, I'm gonna catch you up to the current timeline as you were absent for a little bit.
Daisuke, the man raises a fist in anger at you, feeling insulted, but before he can do anything you hear a sound of rushing wind and a loud THWACK, and he falls to the ground unconscious. A small, somewhat familiar looking Japanese man a bit older than you is standing behind him holding what appears to be a wooden katana. He quickly places the weapon in his belt, and bows quickly to you.
"Daisuke-san, we must go, quickly! There is much to discuss! No time for questions, no time!"
He attempts to lead you past a scene of carnage where a young American schoolgirl mercilessly beat some bystanders and find a place of somewhat quiet in the midst of the Black Friday chaos.
