Meanwhile, back in reality, on the Eighth Earth, there was trouble.
Vinegar had just had her limbs cut off. Her hands and legs were gone.
The pain that came with losing one's limbs was incredible. However, lady vinegar did not scream. The reason was because she having certain troubles of her own.
At the moment, within her head, Vine and Gar, although injured, were having an argument in front of a seal door. This door had the image of another woman. This woman had the same image, just like Vine and Gar, but was sealed.
"We should merge and get it over with!" Vine suggested, "We are not strong enough apart. But once we merge, we will be able to enter the Great Demon rank and bring hell to them!"
"No!" Gar immediately disagreed. "We have talked about this before, Vine. If we merge, we will both lose our sense of self and become another person. What if what we become does not love Lenny. This is a risk I do not want to take."
