==Story Overview==
This is the second night for the [[Null & Void Event]]. It takes place immediately after the events of [[Outpost 16]], the first night.

After being sentenced to be erased by the [[Rift Walker (Story)|Rift Walker]], the [[Dispatcher]], [[Commander]], [[Minigunner]] and [[Scout]] end up in the [[Banlands]], located in the outer [[Nil Zone]]. There, they find the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]], unaware of their presence, talking to himself.

The [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] arrives, carrying [[Titus]] with him then throwing him to the ground. The [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] lashes out on him, as he believes the [[Children of Exo]] used him just to then let him die when convenient. While preparing an account, the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] starts crying. To help him, [[Left Hand|Lefty]] gives him a tissue.

After turning around, the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] is shocked to see the [[T.D.S. Organization]] there. He similarly lashes out on them, this time for them ruining his career. During this, they are interrupted by [[Titus]] who attempts to take revenge on the [[T.D.S. Organization]] for losing twice to them, though he is quickly gotten rid of by the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] slapping him with [[Left Hand|Lefty]].

After getting rid of the distractions, the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] includes the [[T.D.S. Organization]] to the [[Banlands]] and its main inhabitant, the [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]], an entity tasked with eliminating everything that comes into the realm. He then announces their demise, followed by the [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] telling him his death is next. The [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] tries to calm the situation down, though this leads to nowhere.

The [[T.D.S. Organization]], with [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] unwillingly on their side, fight off the [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] and anything else that attempts to attack them, which eventually leads to the [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] being killed by them. The [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] thanks the audience for their compliments. During this, the [[Minigunner]] begins clapping, which causes the rest of his team to become disappointed in him.

[[Right Hand|Righty]] touches the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]], then points towards the [[T.D.S. Organization]]. This leads to the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] acting surprised that they are not dead. He then mentions that they are lucky that the [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] did not have a fail-safe in his corpse in the case of his death, which shortly is proven to be the case as a portal opens up to an unknown area. This leads to a short argument between the two, which is stopped by them being dragged into the portal.

[[Left Hand|Lefty]] quickly arrives to help by giving him a tissue.

Afterwards, the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] turns around and sees the [[T.D.S. Organization]] who have just arrived in the [[Banlands]].

Organization]], though this is stopped by the [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] slapping him away.

The [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] introduces the [[T.D.S. Organization]] to the [[Banlands]], then also tells them who the [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] is. Shortly after, he announces their death. The [[Null Guardian (Story)|Null Guardian]] agrees with him, but adds in that he will be next. The [[Narrator (Story)|Narrator]] tries to calm down the situation, but this leads nowhere.
