As Benetto was shunted up into the Heaven above, he was met with a glorious sight. Glistening architecture. Wonderous fountains. Various and wonderful means of occupying his time for all of eternity. All of them, just distractions. (I can't see how the fight with Realigner Red turned out. The only way I know everybody isn't already dead is that I haven't seen the other members of COSMOS yet. Even if they are alive, there's no guarantee that they've won, making Nova's plan completely pointless if they didn't. And even if everything's gone well, that idiot Articho is probably...arrgh! If this was the perfect resting place, it would have a way for me to get right back to what I need to be doing! Right, well obviously the guardians of this place aren't going to be much help. I'll have to figure out a way to get back, there's nothing saying that it can't happen, so I may as well try. Of course, if I just come back looking like this, there wouldn't be much of a point in it. It feels so weird without having limbs or my ears. So, first and foremost, I find a way to get my body back. Then, I find some sort of secret way out of here. While I can't trust the wardens, there should be plenty of other people here, Red did a fine job of that at least. Considering how I didn't seem to make contact with anything but steel as I passed, I didn't succeed in grabbing Nova, so he's probably dead...I'll be having some words with him once he does, he obviously doesn't know that when you wear the suit, you take on the responsibility, and sacrificing an entire city for a half-hearted shot at winning isn't worth it.)
Benetto continued to pace, or at least float back and forth as the plan came together in his head. (Right, so. I find some allies, I get my body, I get back, and then we work from there. Huh, I just remembered that I made a order for the new pair of shades before the fight. Wait...I was wearing my suit for that fight! And I didn't have my shades! Oh no...ohhh nooo. Well, nobody seemed to pay any attention to you during that fight, even when giving a great speech, so I guess they weren't getting a good look at you either. Let's just hope so, otherwise, my whole secret identity thing's blown out of the water. Either way, I guess Sasha's going to have to pick my order up for me until I get back. Alan always does a good job with those things, can't wait to see what she's concocted this time. Focus, Benetto, focus, first you have to worry about the first steps of this process. Time to think about how I'll go about that...)
Benetto continued floating near the entrance of Heaven as other spirits went about their daily afterlives, focused on his goal far more than any pleasures the land about him might bring.
