Two men in suits look on this picture of a VirtuoRoom as they stand in the real world. The office is spacious with a large, flat-screen TV that allows people in the real world to view the happenings in the virtual world. The one man adjusts the screen slightly and says, "Well, Sterling, it worked. Sherena was able to neutralize a green demon."

Sterling nods his head and replies, "True,Tyler, but was it worth it? I mean," pointing at the screen, "We just lost another Test Engineer to the Green Demons."

Sterling shakes his head, "But, we will not lose anymore to Green Demon #4. He has seen his last transformation."

Tyler replies softly, "I know, and I realize she was not to be trapped as well, but she seemed to think there was no other way."

"I will have one of the guys move it onto one of the Virtual Gamer Levels. We can make use of its addition to the inVIRTory, so it will not be a loss at all." They know they should say more or do more, but they are not sure what.

The office room grows quiet as they gaze on the statue. They both admire it to the point of Sterling saying, "Well, if I was gonna go...I want to go holding those, am I right?" Holding both hands palms up, Tyler chuckles and nods his agreement.

Is this the end of the reign of terror of the Green Demons???
