The End

[foundationmods]

After a long trial and a tearful rebirth, it was time to move on to the next journey. But where would they all go? And how would they be able to say 'goodbye' after seven weeks of bonding?

Those answers would not come easily. However, the Pieces did not need to make those decisions alone...🗈

Rest is needed, but it isn't quite time for that yet. No, there are places to go and people to see.

Given that most of the Pieces did want to return to the Foundation, the Witch of Dimensions opted to stop there first and drop them all off. The stragglers can be handled later, when he has rested and regained more of his energy.

But where did he decide to put them? After all, the Foundation knows they have gone missing. To return them right to where he took them from would only put them in danger. So instead, he opts to take them to the people best qualified to offer help with multi-dimensional dealings.

[...Oh. Oh Shadow.

Watanuki is going to summon a yellow canary and send it along with Shadow.]

If you don't make it back in time, he will guide you to me.

[In sharp contrast to the last time Shadow encountered one of these birds, he gently strokes the bird's feathers, then nods]

Two minutes. All I need is two minutes.

[And with that, he vanishes. No inhibitor rings, no way for the Foundation to control him. Breaking into the vault where his things are kept will be a snap.

... he hopes]

[Run like the wind, Shadow. Because they are watching, and they have definitely taken notice.]

[cryosurgeon]

[By the time Erhard notices what's going on, he barely gets the first syllable of Shadow's name out before the hedgehog vanishes. The doctor looks rather distressed.]

Watanuki, will he... will he be alright?

[foundfate]

He'll be alright. There's just something he needs to bring with him.
