Jacob continued holding on to Maria, when suddenly Lidia seemed to fall out in the grass in front of them. She looked up at the two in horror, then took a fighting stance. Jacob could tell there were some dried tears on her face. He didn't know who or what she had to fight, but it clearly took a lot in her to do.
"What the hell. Now I have to fight Maria and Jacob?! They're not real, Lidia. They're not real."
Jacob stood up and raised his hands.
"Wait! We're real, Miss Lidia! We just came back from fighting our trial too! I think it was a test we had to pass! A very cruel one, but a test nonetheless."
Lidia continued holding her stance.
"Yah right. You look nothing like Jacob. You couldn't even copy his nose."
Jacob held up the severed nose and showed it to Lidia. Maria slowly stood up while sniffling and fixed her hair before looking at Lidia.
"It's really us! I just lost this in my fight!"
"Mom. I'm so glad you're okay. Where's everyone else?"
