Receipt: SZ-ARDS04
Author: Capgras
Status: Shaka Secret
Subject: Another Debt
Shaka: Bravo, Indrid. I wasn't sure if you had the strength to defy Secret.
Indrid: …
Shaka: But what will we do now? Without Secret around, the possibility of being cured is… low. Near zero, I'd imagine. Only Secret knew the process to turn one Cold, after all.
Indrid: Blood as old and cold-cold-cold as the Universe itself. My blood.
Shaka: Ah—but he's dead. More than dead. Removed. The Secret is—
Indrid: Blood as old-old-old and cold as the Universe itself. Secret's blood. All that was left was a drop-drop-drop of ancient blood.
Shaka: Ah—
Indrid: Beautiful, though, isn't it? Effortlessly, it throbs, burns-burns-burns, and aches, yet it takes so very little to cut one in twain.
Shaka: Dangerous, though, don't you think? Even I can't predict what will become of the malformed heart. You would be risking everything—everyone—Indrid.
Indrid: Hello, my name is Indrid Cold. Evil will bless, and Ice will Burn-burn-burn. Thanatos will roll the stone instead. Blood as old and cold as the Universe itself. Beautiful, though, wasn't it?

Effortlessly, it spun around-around-around, ticked down-down-down, and was wound up-up-up, yet it will take so very little to cut it in twain. An Other debt still needs to be paid.
Shaka: Well, it is now or never, isn't it? You're right. It won't take long for her to find the heart and cut it from the Universe. I suppose we can give it a shot. Though, if it doesn't work… Do you have an alternative plan my ill-fated friend?
Indrid: Well, on the one hand, we don't need-need-need it. We don't need anyone anymore. That's the neat part about killing Secret. Though... we do still need the... well, that's a secret-secret-secret.
Shaka: Ah. The last secret. I don't see the immediate connection, my delusional double.
Indrid: Sun… shine—
Shaka: Sunshine? Ah, you are not too dissimilar, are you? Cut from the same cloth. It's not quite twenty-six steps ahead, but I never have been. All it takes is knowing a few well-kept secrets. It won't be so cold with Sunshine around, will it?
Indrid: Hello, my name is Indrid Cold. Evil will bless, and Ice will Burn-

Shaka: —Might as well give everyone the apocalypse they were promised.
