B2: Chapter 34: "Bringing Them The Horizon" (Mature)

Back in Staug City, Kannell along with Zephyr who at their House were crying and trying to dig a Grave for Noodle. They have been having an emotional breakdown for the past two and a half hours. Zephyr was emotionally broken over Ryan cheating on her and lying to her. Kannell on the other hand was more than emotionally broken. She was shattered and borderline suicidal. The past few days have filled up her up with so much stress. Having her boyfriend killed in front of her because of Ryan’s lies and poor decisions was just too much for her this week. She wants to dig this grave and hop in with Him.

Liz who was just now getting back from her vacation with Misty and Zara sees them in the backyard and runs out to them to see what was wrong. When Zephyr told her what Ryan did, she didn’t know how to respond. But she didn’t get mad at Ryan right from the start. She has been holding onto the same secret that Ryan has been keeping from them. She knew that Bunnell has been his mother this whole time. She knew this because Queen Lake was a devoted follower of her, and she had a few “Private” chats with her to make her Son would “Make It” here on this world.

When Zephyr explained that he also cheated on her, Lindsay had a slightly change of heart. She then takes her for a walk around the Pond in the back yard. She had to explain to her how she felt when Bella kicked her out of her home when Ryan arrived.

Misty on the other hand who was holding Zara in her arms puts her down and sits down next to Kannell who was losing her mind and crying uncontrollably in mourning for Joseph. Misty picks Kannell up off the ground and holds her and makes her talk to her while she comforted her. With her losing her husband because of an accident she knew exactly how Kannell felt right now. She knew she had the life experience to help Kannell right now through this dark time.

Meanwhile in the Disturbia Anarchy Zone

Ryan had his back against a Tree Listening to “Becoming the Bull” From Atreyu and was drinking a bottle of Whisky that Kannell left in the cart before he got fired. He was crying and drinking this thing up hoping that everything would go back to normal. He currently had a war going on inside himself. One side wants to die, and the other side wants help. He feels like he’s been here before. He doesn’t have a motorcycle this time and now he has no friends. He’s in a lawless PVP type zone surrounded by people who could kill him anytime they wanted. He also had that Divine Curse emoji that Arcadia gave him that people could see a mile away and follow back to him. He doesn’t know what do and doesn’t want to feel alone anymore. He drops the bottle and rolls over facedown and starts crying some more. When he comes to his senses, he realizes he is angry at himself more than anything.

He starts to have flashbacks of the Siege of Staug City, and also the Defense of Miseryland. He starts to remember the countless lives that were lost because of those attacks. He remembers holding that woman who had just gotten a note from her kid that was waiting patiently for her to come home. He starts to cry again some more in sadness and then gets up.

He picks up his kite and unrolls it. He then unrolls his lines and walks all the way back and gets ready to launch his kite.

He starts to feel sick and then Throws up in the grass. He was not used to drinking and he just drank a half of bottle of whiskey. He threw up everything that was in his stomach and then decides to launch the kite and get going. He puts on the song: “Busy Bein’ Born” from Middle Class Rut and he just cruises. He just follows the wind to the north east at 25 miles an hour and thinks about his life.

He sails around this rolling hill-like grassland that had red clay visible throughout area. As he sails around the area, he notices this place didn’t have any farmland at all and also had very few trees in it. This zone looked like a dead wasteland for some reason.

He rides for 30 minutes and then stops to throw up again. Him feeling slightly more sober lands the kite and walks over to a tree and sits against and takes a break.

Feeling upset still, He takes his sword and carves: “After your dreams have all died, and morning is in mourning, what are you?” into the side of a Tree. He then walks over to his kite and launches it again.

He sees a camp to the north west from here and decides he still feels worthless right now. But he then realized he’s angry at the same time. He takes his kite and sails toward this small camp while the sun started to go down. He lands his kite outside of the camp and quickly wraps everything up and puts it all away in his backpack. He then straps his board to his back and walks into the camp. He hears the whole camp having a meeting inside a big tent.

He hears everyone chanting “Down with the Siviks!” inside the tent. With everyone unaware that he was here, Ryan smiles and charges up [Void Blast] and lets it loose inside the building. The explosion damages everyone inside the tent and lowers their Spirit. He then lets out a drunk sadistic laugh and fires [Ball Lighting] inside the tent in stun mode. He hears all 20 people inside the tent scream and then he casts [Ball Lighting] again in fire mode and sets the tent on fire. He then Fires [Ball Lightning] at the tree behind the Tent that was now currently on fire and it comes crashing down on all of them. Ryan smiles at this little dark little massacre he just committed on these unsuspecting anarchists. He watches the tent go up in flames and then walks out of the area while he hears everyone inside scream and burn to death.

But before he leaves, he starts pillaging all the tents with fire spell. Before he burns down the last tent in the camp, he walks inside it and sees a huge map inside of it hung on the wall. He walks inside and looks at this map of this anarchy zone. He takes a picture of this map with his phone that showed all the outposts, camps and major cities and everything else that was in the area. He then walks out of the tent and casts [Detonate] on the tent.

As he walks away from the burning camp, he sets his kite back up. Ryan then starts sailing north east again for another hour. He then sees something ahead of him sticking out in this flat rolling grass land.

He pulls out his phone and looks at the picture of that map. He sees something written in red that was in his general proximity.

“Metourum” was what he read on the map and it had like 5 skulls drawn around it. But what he saw ahead of him was something even more amazing. There was a sleeping mountain like fire creature that stood over 2000-foot-high in the distance. Him being a little drunk and unsure what that thing was, he pulls out his phone and scans it.

“Metourum” World Boss Creature. Class: Fire Demon. Health: ??? Level: ??? Max Speed: 15 Miles an Hour. Minimum Attack Range: 1/5 of a Mile.

Still depressed and drunk and deciding on if he want to keep living or not decides to flip a coin.

“Heads I go poke it. Tails I got leave it alone” He tells himself with a happy giggly smile.

He flips the coin and it lands on Heads.

With the song “We’ll Sleep When We’re Dead” From Blessthefall on Global mode playing, Ryan decides this is going to be his final march on this world. He puts his kite in the air and starts charging right toward this massive sleeping fire giant that was like a little less than 2 miles away.

He picks up speed he predicts he will be at this thing in about 10 minutes.

As he runs out to this beast so many thoughts flood through his. He starts crying and starts to get scared. As he gets within a mile of this thing, he can feel the heat radiating off of the demon.

He stops within a half a mile from the thing and starts to break down crying. He feels alone and wishes he could just rewind this whole day. He sits down on the ground and just lets his tears run down his face as his hopelessness episode manifests him again.

As he starts Crying, he starts singing the last song he will ever hear before he pulls this “theoretical trigger” on his life.

“All alone is where we been before,

All alone is where we started.

All alone is where we been before,

All alone is where we started”

As he starts to sing this song the Demon wakes up and looks at him. The earth shakes as this massive giant wakes up and roars at him.

Then out of nowhere Ryan hears a screaming voice in his head telling him to be strong and Run. Confused at what to do and what to feel right now he stays motionless. He still had a war waging inside himself. One part him still wants to die, and the other part wants to live and see what life has in store for him. To make matters worse the song “wonderful life” from Bring Me The Horizon starts blasting on global next.

He then hears that screaming voice inside his head strongly screaming at him to run. He then looks up at this monster that was getting on his feet and that getting ready charge at him.

As he listens closely to that voice inside his head again screaming at him to run, he can make out the voice.

It was Arcadia and she was screaming at him to be strong and just run away. As the giant starts to run at him over a half mile away Ryan gets flooded with bi-polar feeling will to live again. He quickly turns around and starts tilting his kite. He then starts running away with this Demon in full pursuit behind him.

The wind was blowing 25 miles to the East, but he decided to start headed due south on a Beam Reach.

Ass He was running away, and this pissed off mountain was shaking the world as it was pursing him with the song “wonderful life” still playing. He takes one hand off the bar and pulls out his phone and cranks the song up to God Mode.

He decided if he’s going to die, he wants to go out loud as possible.

As he runs south the wind starts to shift more to the south which gives him even more speed. He also sees a massive Anarchy settlement ahead of him. He heads right to it. As this beast gets pissed off, he starts glowing red hot and starts shooting lava like mortars at him. As he swerves to avoid the incoming hailstorm he aims right through the camp and the beast follows his same path right behind him a mile away. When he gets far enough from the camp he looks back and sees this beast stomp through it. He then sees another camp another 3 miles ahead.

“If I’m going to go down, I might as well take as much people as I can with me” He tells himself as he picks up more speed.

Ryan then starts to question why the wind was getting stronger and a theory pops up into his head. The heat coming of this thing was heating the air around it and it was causing its own little convection and wind system, just like how a Wildfire creates its own wind. He really starts to crank down on his kite and gets his speed up to 30 miles an hour.

He then starts heading toward that bigger settlement in the distant with a fucked-up smile on his face. He then starts rocking out to this song with this angry mountain in tow.

“‘Alone, getting high on a Saturday night

I’m on the edge of a knife

Nobody cares if I’m dead or alive

Oh, what a wonderful life!”

He starts screaming and singing as he aims right for the center of this settlement.

The people from the camp were outside and staring at his emoji that was coming at them and his kite, they were wondering why ground was shacking. As soon as they see him tear right through the town that’s when they see it coming their way.

45 seconds later it was Game over for everyone else in that camp.

As he keeps out running this demon that kept chasing after him, he starts to remember what this Divine curse does. It’s going to pull this demon to him until it gets him or until he out runs its pull radius. He takes out his phone and looks at more settlements that were in the distance and he sees 5 more and a Huge major Capital city that was 10 miles away.

He smiles at the fact he just can’t stop moving. But at the same time, he’s doing a hell of a lot of damage on this Death march.

As soon as he realizes this, he grabs his bar and agrees that he’s going to lead this bitch to this Anarchy’s capital city. He gauges his distance to the beast and realizes he is almost a mile ahead of it. He then slows down and waits for it to catch up. He also gets his bearings to the nearest camp near him and starts headed that way.

As he starts to climb up a hill and sees the demon catching up. As he reaches the top of the hill, he sees Alex nearby that just killed 6 Anarchy members. She sees him fly past her and waves at him. She also starts jamming out to this song that was blasting through the area. As soon as realized that it was her, he corrects his course to lead it away from her. He turns hard to the left and carries it away from her area.

40 seconds later she remains standing there in confusion. She then feels the ground start shaking and she sees the World Boss climb up the hill and chasing after him. As soon as she sees the beast she runs away screaming.

“Shit! Shit!! Shit!!! What the Fuck Ryan!” She screams as she runs away dodging Lava Mortars that it was launching out of its body.

As soon as the boss passes her, she stops running and sees him heading for a major military camp in the horizon.

“Oh my god. Please tell me he isn’t” Alex screams in jealousy

Ryan picks up speed and heads right through this Military training camp Soldiers who saw him coming a mile take up arms and start trying to shot him with arrows. Ryan Toys with them and swings wide to the right of the camp. He then passes the camp and starts cutting wide left to get back on track. He then looks back and charges up [Ball Lightning] in stun mode and lets it loose at the wall of Archers that were reloading. He detonates the spell and triggers the Area of Effect of the blast on them.

As Metourum comes sprinting up the hill everyone in the town starts losing their shit. They see this world boss coming their way and they try running away. But it was too late. As soon as they entered its AOE range, it was over for them. People got incinerated by the heat blasts coming off its body and it stomped through the settlement chasing after Ryan.

Ryan keeps guiding this Pissed off Emo Seeking Missile through all the camps and then can see a town ahead of him. He looks at his phone and see’s the town ahead name was Desteria.

As he keeps guiding Metourum toward the city the song “Happy Song” From Bring Me The Horizon then comes on.

This makes him smile a little bit. He thinks of how funny this is. He looks up at his Epic Face emoji that is pulling this demon to him, which he is literally “Kiting” toward the city. He then starts laughing at how funny this is and starts singing the song.

“S-P-I-R-I-T Spirit Lets her it! LET’S GO!” He screams while singing along to the song. He then cranks the kite down low and really gets going.

The people of this major city were being riddled with earthquakes and stepped outside saw this flaming red-hot demon coming their way. With the sun going down, they couldn’t make out Ryan’s colorful power kite in the sky, or his 200-foot Bright yellow Awesome Face emoji. All they saw was a pissed off glowing hot demon charging their way.

Suddenly the Air raid sirens start going off around the town Ryan then blasts through the front of the city with Metourum in full pursuit with “Happy Song” blasting on full God Mode Volume. Ryan sets a course to stay away from the buildings and when he looks ahead and sees he’s going into a Wind shadow zone he stops his board. He brings his kite down and quickly wraps it up as he watches Metourum charge right through the city gates with the sirens going off all over the city. He packs up the kite and waits for him to get just a little closer.

When Metourum bursts through the front gate of the town he hops on his board and starts Burning [Ball Lighting] in Fire behind him and starts accelerating like a rocket through the middle of the city.

Over the blasting of the song he can hear carnage and screaming behind him. He decides to not look back. He keeps going and screams to the song that made him feel so great right now. He powers through up to 55 miles an hour and dodges obstacles that were in his path.

As he kept burning this after-burner like spell, his Mana was draining down fast. Which resulted with Ryan starting to get lightheaded. As this pissed off beast stays in pursuit of him, Ryan decides to head right toward the capital building in the middle of the city. Metourum starts shooting lava mortars at him and he starts to quickly adjusts his course to avoid impact of these things. He keeps burning this spell and starts to feel even more weaker and starts getting an even more heaver headache.

As soon as he passes the capital building, he feels happy about himself. He knows he’s going to die in this town with all these assholes, but this was a hell of ride and a hell of a death march. He knows he only has enough mana to make it out the other end of the town. But nothing more after that.

As soon as he blasts out the other end of the town, Metourum keeps after him in a pissed off rage. As soon as he leaves the city’s gates, Ryan completely runs out of mana. He loses focus and collapses off his board going 35 miles an hour with a massive headache. As he rolls along the ground, he comes to a complete stop on the ground laying on his back watching Metourum charge his way.

“It’s been a hell of a Ride, but my moment of reckoning has arrived. Make this painless for me buddy” Ryan said out loud with a despondent tone as he watches the bringer of his fate come his way.

Out of nowhere Arcadia opens up a portal near him and runs out of it. She grabs his arm and pulls him through it just as Metourum was getting ready within attack range on him.

As soon as she pulls him through the portal the demon screams in rage and lets out a hellish Area of Effect flame blast that had a blast radius of an Atomic bomb.

Metourum completely destroys the city and kills everyone that was here after his Atomic blast spell went off. He then knells down on his knees and in a pissed off rage, Teleports away from the city back to his Default boss zone.

Dark Master Oz and Lady Lake who were watching this atomic like blast unfold in the distance from the top of King Joes Castle with binoculars were all at a loss for words.

“See lake? I told you. A bottle of booze plus an unstable life divided by a bad day equals a fun end result” Dark Master Oz tells her jokingly.
