Ryan, who was down on his knees, sees Alex behind him and feels her give him a hug.

“You seem excited!” Alex said while giving him a warm hug.

“Ya, I just trekked through Ala-Ash all by myself. It’s been the best 3 weeks of my life exploring solo” He tells her.

“You trekked through Ala-Ash all by yourself? Wow Gratz dude. That’s quite the achievement” She tells him while helping him onto his feet.

“So, this is Faterra?” He asks her.

“Yep! That mountain you just came down is Hölle mountain. It’s a divider for Ala-Ash and Faterra” She explained to him while pointing to the summit that was towering above them to the south.

Ryan looks at this huge mountain he just came down and smiles. He didn’t get chance to see the mountain from this angle. The mountain rose right into the air with a mesmerizing appearance. It had a white snow cap, and a contrasting chalky grey rocky outcrop.

“So, I’m assuming your sore right?” Alex asked him with smirk on her face.

“I not going to lie. I am. The worst part of that trip was when I got really deep into the mountain territory, I realized I was severely under dressed. The nights were a pain in the balls. I’m glad I’m a fire mage because my emergency fires kept me from freezing” He told her.

“Oh, that’s right. I forgot. You’re a Florida boy” Alex teased him while poking him in the nose. She then randomly grabs his hand and pulls him down a hill with her.

“Hang on, where are we going?” Ryan asked her seeming confused.

“Hush. It’s a surprise” Alex replied to him as they made a sharp left-hand turn toward what looked like a small mountain village. Ryan blindly follows her without questioning her and she leads him into the middle of the town. He sees a town of what he guessed had a population of 20 to 30 people in it with people doing their normal day tasks. As he passes through the heart of the town with Alex, He overhears people speaking German.

He also sees a young 15-year-old red headed German girl dressed in a traditional work dress who was carrying a rake and basket full of fruit.

Alex guides him to what looks like a steaming pond that was lined with stones and crosses her arms.

“Behold the village of Fusihterburg” Alex told him while spreading her arms out and rotating 360 degrees. She then takes off her black and white striped armor and all her clothes without warning to Ryan. She then hops in the steaming hot spring.

“What the hell Alex! What are you doing!” Ryan screams at her in worry, and deep concern.

“What do you mean what am I doing?” Alex replies back to him while gently flapping her arms and slowing kicking her feet in the water to stay afloat.

“Your naked in public!” Ryan replies back to her in extreamly concerned tone.

“Oh, I’m fine! You see Faterra is just like Germany. It’s perfectly normal to bath naked in public bathhouses or spas. This is the towns hot spring. Everyone in town hops in here with their birthday suits after a long day and chats with each other!” Alex explained to him with a cheerful attitude.

Alex then leans backwards and does a backflip underwater. When she comes back up to the surface, she laughs at him walks up to the edge of the pool. Ryan who looks down at her frowns and takes off his backpack and his sword. He then slowly gets in the hot spring with his clothes on and lays back. Alex immediately hops out of the hot spring and grabs his backpack. She pulls out his cellphone and hops back into the pool. When she gets into the pool, she accidently drops it out of her hand and it sinks to the bottom.

“Oh Shit! Noo!!!” Alex screams in panic. She then dives down to the bottom of the pool and grabs it. when she surfaces, she hops out and freaks out.

“I didn’t mean to do that!” Alex pleads with Ryan.

“Oh, your fine. I told you that thing is waterproof” He told her.

Alex shakes the phone and sees that the thing still works. She holds the phone to her left breast and hugs it in joy.

“I was a little scared there for a little bit” Alex tells him as she gets back in the water. She then puts on the song “Never Look Back” From The Nearly Deads on speaker mode and leans back.

“I’m so glad you have this song! It’s been so long since I heard it! Alex said while lip synching to the song.

“So whats the occasion for this song in particular” Ryan askes her while leaning back and enjoying the warm water do its magic on his sore feet and legs.

“Ummm… I sort of saw an old friend that I shouldn’t have again” She tells him while pausing the song.

“Wait who?” He asks.

“Umm I don’t want to say” Alex tells him.

“Alex don’t be afraid. You can talk to me” He tells her.

“Ugg fine. I saw Greena again” Alex replies to him in a deep depressed state.

“Oh. Wait. How do you and her have a problem between each other?” Ryan asks her.

“She… used to be my first healer” Alex replies to him with a tone of embarrassment.

“Ok. I’m interested. Greena is still kind of mysterious to me. Go ahead and start from the beginning” Ryan says while turning to her.

“I don’t know where to start” Alex replies feeling really confused.

“Tell me how you all met” Ryan asks.

“Umm Alright?” Alex says while shrugging her shoulders. She then lays on her back in the water and things really hard.

“Two years ago, when I died because of that school shooter, I was sent down to this world. I found myself in the starter town of Escambia which lies right here in Faterra. I walk through the town and as do, everyone in the town thought I was a demon since they never saw a Black Emo girl before. I scare half the town and then calmly explain to everyone I’m human. A few mages come out and scan me and tell everyone that I was not a threat. I then acquire my first quest.” Alex says while swimming back to the wall of the pool.

“My first quest I got was from a farmer that needed me to help him out and slay 10 pigs in the forest that were tearing up his fields. He also wanted me to bring them back there to his farm so they can be skinned, and the meat collected. I accepted this quest and then head out and try to get the job done. On the way out there, I find out how fast pigs are and realize this job was going to be a pain in the ass. I kill like 2 pigs on my own, but quickly realize I can’t do this alone. I end up finding someone my level who was on the same quest I was on, and I end up teaming up with a Gothic elf woman who was a level 5 shadow priest.” Alex then pauses to look around the village and up at the mountain that was towering over the town. She was looking at a small avalanche that just occurred. She sees something that just didn’t seem right. Something large was descending from it but she couldn’t make out the creature.

“Let me guess that big tiddy goth girl you met was Greena right?” Ryan replies to her while smirking.

Alex Rolls her eyes at him and gives him an annoyed look. “Unfortunately, yes” Alex replies to him while taking her eyes off the mountain.

“We team up and make up a plan. I have her slow the pigs down while I go in for the killing blow. We kill eight pigs and on the ninth pig, we find a pissed off mother sow. Things don’t go right, and I end up getting mortally wounded. She heals me and I realize how fun it is to have a Shadow priest as a healer. Her first heal hurt like a mother fucker, but after I looked on the bright side and realized that I’m still alive and all healed up from a bloody mess, I forgave her and we come up with another plan. We both agree to attack that Sow again but decide to be more actively communicative with each other. Greena slows it down and pulls it to her, while I attack it from behind while it runs to her. When I grab its full attention, she fires back at it while I run away from it with it chasing me. We ultimately bring down this beast and go after its babies. We end up capturing them all alive and bring them straight to the farmer. He thanks us for the fact he has live cattle he can raise now and says he will reward us with more gold for this. We then go back into the forest and kill 1 more full-grown adult boar. The farmer then lends us an Ox and a cart. We go out to the woods and collect the slain boars we killed and toss them on the cart. We complete that first quest, and I end up hitting level 2. We all collect our gold Reward and we end up becoming really tight questing buddies” Alex explained to Ryan.

“I see, so you’ve known her since day one as well right?” Ryan asks her.

“What do you mean?” Alex asks him.

“I met Zephyr on day one when I first came to this world. Shes been a pain in the ass too” Ryan said with a chuckle.

“Well that’s where our problems first started. As we became best friends, and started gaining experience, I ended up having a problem figuring out what path I wanted to follow in my warrior disciple. I end up letting Greena talk me into pursing a Death Knight path, but when I realize that you have to be a Follower of Yulee to be that class, I told her about my mission and why I was sent here. I told her I can’t follow the same side that I was sent down here to defeat. Greena smirked at me and told me to just fake being a Yulee follower, and ditch the academy ]when a trainer taught me a few important Death Knight only skills.” Alex explained while pausing to look at that mountain top again. She really wonders what she was seeing that was slowly trekking down the mountain side. She can barely make out something that was white walking down the side of the mountain. From about 2 miles away.

“Oh, this story feels like it’s about to get good, please don’t stop tell me more” Ryan asked her.

“Well anyway, Her being older than me, I listen to her advice and don’t question her. I find a Yuleeian Warrior trainer and ask him to guide me in the path of a Death Knight. He explains to me what I need to do and warns me there may be a chance that I might not make it past the selection process toward the end of my training. I tell him I will do anything to achieve my dream, and Master Yojiro takes me under his wing. He trains me in the way of the warrior, and then we run into a problem. I told him about my Magic 2 hand sword, and how I was not going to upgrade to any other weapon. He explained to me that if I wanted to become a Tank, it was going to be hard with just a 2 handed sword in my arsenal. But when I asked him if there was a way for me to be a tank with just a 2-hand sword, he smiled at me and didn’t say anything. All he did was send me and Greena on a ridiculous quest. We had to leave Faterra on foot and travel to Ala-Ash. I had to give a “Friend” of his a sealed pot of something. But we had to do it in 3 days before the item inside this pot expired. He gave us a map and said we had 3 days to travel 300 miles to a remote location in the mountains of Ala-Ash. The stubborn old man didn’t tell us anymore info then that. Greena suggested we grab a teleportation mage and get them to Teleport us to Brian City, Ala-Ash but we run into a yet another problem” Alex said while clinching her fists.

“And what was that?” Ryan asked seeming very interested in this story.

“The damn Teleportation mage we had available could only teleport us 70 miles away. He wasn’t that high of a level. We tried to pay him for a teleport, and he refused to take the money. He wanted to join our party and journey with us and get off at Mount Cheat. We accept him, and he teleports us to the Black Forest in South Faterra. We then start walking through the forest and get our asses attacked by every damn monster in the book. I end up taking up the role of Tank, and protect Greena, and Eddie. Eddie was a Teleport-Arcane mage which made him weak as hell in the damage division. This means I have to absorb damage for 2 and deal most of the damage on his behalf. Greena did her fair share of damage at times, but after we got out of the black forest, we ended up walking to this city right here, and took a break before we all climbed mount Hollie and crossed into Ala-Ash. While we were in the mountains we got attacked again and I was forced to Tank and deal damage again since Eddie was worthless. When Eddie gained a few levels, he reached a point where he could teleport us 100 miles away. At this point, he teleported us to Mount Cheat. From there we all took a nap and woke up at like 5am and he teleported us to Brian City without him. We then had to like find a way to get to this guy who was in the middle of nowhere. We analyzed the map Master Yojiro gave me and I realized the only way to get to this man was to raft like 11 miles downstream. Greena and I start cutting down trees with magic and with an axe I brought with me and we assemble a raft in like an hour and a half that was held together with a buttload of vines. We also make the world’s worst paddles out of driftwood, and we go and have a terrifying white water run down the Nanahaha River. When her and I reach our bail out point at a gorge we then hike up Bro mountain and find this man. We find this Shaman who was spaced out on some really strong herbs and hand him the sealed pot that Yojiro handed me. The man unseals the pot, and then we can’t believe our eyes. Inside that pot was a batch of Mother fucking chilly. That mother fucker sent us 300 miles just to hand him a pot of chili!” Alex screams in distress and embarrassment at Ryan.

Ryan smiles and bursts out with laughter. He laughs for like 3 minutes and Alex just glares at him in annoyance.

“You done yet?” Alex asks him while crossing her arms.

“I’m Sorry but that’s funny! Please keep going Alex!” He tells her while he catches his breath.

“Anyway, upon realizing that this quest was ridiculous, The shaman writes something down on a piece of paper and seals it and hands it to us. He tells us to take this important message back to Master Yojiro, and I and Greena make our painful journey back to him. We walk through hell again and get attacked by more wildlife along the way. I become Greena’s tank again and she remains my healer which at this point still sucks ass. I still didn’t like her healing me because her healing hurt worse than the attack itself. But I got used to the pain and kept her safe. We walk on foot for like 2 weeks before we come to a town and buy a teleport back home. When we do get back to my town and I hand Master Yojiro the message. He pulls it of the envelope and shows it to us”

“Your Chili Tastes like Shit - Phil”.

“When I read it, I scream at the top of my lunges in frustration and run out of town and start grinding bears by myself to get rid of my anger and frustration from that annoying quest. Master Yojiro comes out to me while I was grinding experience and tells me that if I survived a trek like that with just a 2-handed sword, I’m a rare breed of tank that can follow the path of the 2-handed warrior. He then agreed to teach me offensive moves, and defensive moves right then and there. Then he sent me on a few quests and recommended me for crusader training after. After I got a new class trainer, I did quests for him and then sought after a Yuleeian Paladin to train me in support spells and healing spells. They wanted me to show proof that I was affiliated with Yulee at this point, and this is where Greena walks up and talks to my trainer. Greena does something weird and shows off an emblem she had to him and he doesn’t even question her about my affliction. The Paladin Class trainer gives me a quest to bring down 10 Undead Reapers from the Guillotine PvP zone. Greena stays by myside and we tackle the challenge. I was around like level 15 at this point, and Greena was level 19 at this point. We go in under the cover of darkness and kill these things and bring back their Scythes as proof. When we get back, I ended up getting him to teach me [Black Light] [Dispel Curse] and [Revive] I then go on like 4 more quests with Greena and I get a chance to be evaluated for a chance to become one of Yulee’s Death Knights. Greena ends up getting a bad feeling about something and on the day of my evaluation she tells me not to go. I trust her gut feeling and I don’t show up to the evaluation. We instead leave to go explore Gnillàf. We cross into the Guillotine PvP zone and run like hell out the other side careful not to get jumped by bandits. We ended up having to slow down a band of level 30’s that did decide to chase us, but we managed to outrun them. This just seems to just piss them off. When we reach the line of freedom, We go to the town of Nye and get some quests started. We end up going out to the middle of nowhere to collect honeycomb, slay big ass bears, and help some old man cut down trees for lumber for a sailboat project he was working on.” Alex said while pausing to squint at that mountain top again.

This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

“Now Here is where things go bad. When I go and collect the honeycomb, I get my ass stung badly. I rely on Greena keeping me healed up, but when I get the honeycomb, I end up getting ambushed by 7 huge rabid bears. They overwhelm me and I put up a good fight, but for some reason Greena somehow pisses off one of the bears by healing me, and one of the bears breaks through me and goes straight for her. In a panic knowing I can’t get to her she randomly pops up [Purgatory] on me and I go and try to intercept that bear that was after her. While being attacked from the rear by the bears I don’t make it to her in time and she gets her ass bite by an angry bear. She then turns to mist, and I freeze in confusion. This turns out to be a bad thing. I then get trampled by the other bears and they pin me down and go for my throat. That’s when I find myself standing in Arcadia’s respawn room, and I learn that I just died. Acadia explains to me I am dead, but not out of the game yet. She tells me how death in this game works and tells me she can open a Vanity portal for me to get back to the surface. She explains how my boobs and ass will take a hit every time I have to revive this way, but the first time is free. Arcadia also sweet talks me into joining her side. She explains that Bunnell is a bitch, and Yulee just can’t be trusted. She explains to me that she is an underdog and she desperately needs followers. She told me since I died unaligned, I was on her side by default. She begged me to join her, and I decided to think about it. Arcadia than gave me a hug and then opened up a portal for me” Alex said while noticing another little mini avalanche on top of the mountain.

“When I revived back to the surface, I find that my body was being eaten by the bears. The holy light I spawned back from pushed the animals away from me and also healed all my wounds. As soon as I revived, I took off running away from the bears and began looking really hard for Greena. She just like seemed to turn into mist on the first hit, and I was worried she was dead. I run back to the town and turn in my honeycomb quest but tell the others I can’t proceed with my quest until I find my friend. They understand completely and help me look for her. After about 4 hours of searching we had to give up on her and stop. When all hope was gone, she comes out of nowhere and gives me a hug and “Says” she teleported out, but accidently “teleported too far out”. Upon hearing this, I grab onto her and cry into her to show her how worried I was. I also then notice she was 5 levels lower then when I last saw her. I brush this off and try to explain to her that when I died, I met a weird goddess named Arcadia. I ask her what she knows about her, and why I haven’t heard about her. She tells me good things about her and confirms that shes just an underdog that has no followers. She strongly pressures me to try and join her side. I told her I would think about it, and in the morning, we decided to abandon the quests we and just head back to Faterra. When we get back home, We both decide to take on a few bounty hunts from the quest board for some extra cash, things seem to be fine for a few months until tragedy strikes again. We go on a quest to slay some out of control witches in the Black Forest region and I end up relying on Greena to keep me healed up during the fight. I go into this fight with Purgatory already on me, and I start kicking ass. Greena somehow ends up getting hit by one of the Witches’ attacks and she goes poof. This leaves me all alone and I end up getting rofledstomped by them all stunning me with a bullshit spell and having them all suck all my life out of me. I meet Arcadia again, and I scream in her respawn room in rage. Arcadia hugs me and comforts me and tells me I need to get back down there before they steal my sword. She quickly opens a Vanity portal down there and I jump in. As I jump in Arcadia reminds me that I have the spell [Black Light] and I should use it if I need to heal myself up in an emergency.

I spawn right on back in and grab my sword and kill the 3 weak witches that were right by my body and I make a B line right the hell out of there. When I flee the area, I realize My body felt lighter than it used to be. My boobs were slightly smaller, and my Butt felt a less plump. Upon realizing this I stomp in rage back to the nearest town really pissed at Greena. When I saw her 5 hours later, I pinned her to the wall and punched her for making me Flatter. She tells me she accidently teleported out again too far and cringed really hard when she realized she left me all alone again. I forgive her for this and try to keep a calm head, but realize she lost another 5 levels. I don’t say anything, but with her being lower than what she started out as makes us take on more quests to get her back on par with my level. During those catch up quests I noticed that she gains more experience overall, but I was still too scared to ask her about the level loss when she has to teleport out, But at the same time I didn’t want go down another rabbit hole. I kept my mouth shut until it happened again. When it happened again, I ended up getting Pawned by a pissed off Ostrich that had a 400,000-gold bounty on its head. We had the damn thing down to 30% health when she somehow grabs its attention. I try to block this thing from getting through me, but it runs me over and 1 hits her and makes her go poof again! This leads me running for my life, and also learning a valuable life lesson. No matter how fast you think you are, You CAN’T OUTRUN AN OSTRICH. This thing kicked my ass and made me fight to the very end. I tried to heal myself with [Black Light] but it only healed me 4% of my health at a time and devoured 44% of my mana per cast. That’s when I realized I was fucked and got put in a position where it punted me like a football 100 yards away from me. While I was in the air coming down toward the ground, I learned yet another life lesson. It’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the landing. When I hit the ground, I ended up seeing Arcadia again and in anger I decided to join her faction. She swears me in and does a dance and makes a deal with me. She agreed that if I killed 5 epic monster’s she will adjust my [Black Light] Spell and make it more potent. She then opens a Vanity portal for me, and I wait 6 hours for Greena to come back to me. When she appears this time, I’m even more pissed at her. I went from a C cup to just barely to a B cup because of her and I lost more of my ass. I grabbed that bitch by the hair and dragged her down to the river and started drowning her until I got the answers I wanted out of her. She ended up telling me about how she is cursed by Yulee, and how every time she dies, she loses 5 levels. She also informs me that the curse she has on her makes her extreamly weak, yet semi-immortal. I make her explain herself more to me and she spills everything to me: Her once being one of Yulee Generals, and her being forced to betray Yulee because she was being reckless with her soldiers life’s. I end up screaming at her for not telling me about this earlier. I walk away from her and leave her alone for 5 days. When I came back, I was still mad at her for lying to me. I then bring another person along and we all slay that damn Ostrich. I use the reward money to buy a simple small house, so I didn’t have keep fighting for rooms at the inn at night. With me at this point knowing Greena’s situation I make sure to plan fights better and to make extra sure that I keep the enemies full attention. We end up taking down 4 epic monsters together and embarking on a ton more quests, but Tragedy strikes yet again. We get assigned a simple mission to slaughter an annoying cult that was starting up in Ala-Ash. We were supposed to get in and out, but due to Greena being slightly lower than me in level range she becomes a golden target for archers, something that we didn’t consider in our initial raid plan. I end up taking all the hits for her as we ran away, but when she saw that we weren’t getting away from this alive, she casts [Purgatory] on me and she runs into charging warriors and casts [Soul Blast] She blows herself up and takes out 25 warriors who were after me out with her with that atomic like blast. Me being stupid, I stop running and look back at the blast and wonder what the hell she just did. I then get sniped in the head by a Sniper in the woods and I’m seeing Arcadia yet again. At this point I pretty much lost 80% of my boob and ass mass. When I had to take yet another Vanity portal, I realized I was going to be just as flat as Arcadia if this happens one more time. I walk through the portal and store away my emotions and grab my sword and haul ass away from the area. When Greena comes back to me, she apologizes for getting me killed again. I bottle up my feelings until we bring down that last epic monster. As soon as we bring down a Naga that had a 60,000-gold bounty on its head, I was out.” Alex said while splashing Ryan with the warm spring water in anger.

“What do you mean you were out?” Ryan asked.

“Well you see, when we killed those epic monsters, I was unaware that Arcadia was accumulating “Faction Points”. I was unaware that she was using these points to make herself a Faction specific Crusader class. As soon as that Naga fell, she traded those points in to upgrade my [Black Light] spell in for [Amber Light]. Amber Light was such an improvement, because it healed 15% of my health at a time and only drained 22% of my mana per cast. This made it possible for me to ditch Greena. I then stepped out of my little shy emo bubble I was in and told Greena off and told her I don’t need her anymore and that she is an annoying little virus I don’t want to ever see or talk to again. We then went our ways. Greena sat there crying and pleaded with me to take her back, but I just kept walking. I was just so damn pissed off that I was flat chested now and I had no Ass anymore. I then later became a master at doing things solo and started taking on jobs that I knew were within my skill level. I basically didn’t see her for like a while until earlier this year where we ran into each other at that rodeo, and that joint Co-op operation during Operation Barbwire. I also saw her like 3 days ago while I was crossing though Greenbriar, Ala-Ash” She tells him.

“Oh wow! You just like filled in so many questions I had about Greena” Ryan tells her.

“Yes, that’s pretty much the history me and her have. It’s just so weird. I know she’s on your team, but at the same time I kind of want her back. I’m a lot stronger and older now and I know what to do in the event an enemy broke through my line again if she was on my team” Alex tells Ryan while she dunks her head underwater in regret.

“Look honestly, I don’t know what she is doing or if she is still a part of the party. I’m pretty much kicked out of my party until my situation with the girls calm down” He tells her.

“Like what Exactly happened between you guys?” She asked him.

“I sort of cheated on Zephyr with Arcadia… and kind of caught a Devine STD from her” Ryan told her while scratching the top of his hand in embarrassment.

“Let’s just say things got messy” He tells Alex in an embarrassed tone.

Alex looks back at him with a hyper and intrigued look on her face and then starts to smile at him.

“Hey, I just told you my life story, now it’s your turn buddy” Alex shouted at him with that bright glowing cheerful smile.

“Ugg Fine. Let’s see where do I start?” Ryan thinks out loud.

Meanwhile back over in Staug City, It’s Been nearly 3 weeks since Zephyr last seen or talked to Ryan. She was sitting down in the living room reading another letter that just came in the mail. He was sending her updates on his solo journey. She smiles at the fact that he’s doing his best at trying to keep the communication going with her, even after his royal fuckup with Arcadia. She’s already forgiven him, but Kannell on the other hand has been drinking herself to death ever since Joseph was killed. As Zephyr opens up the newest letter that just arrived, she starts reading it.

“Dear Zephyr,

It’s been a long ass 16 days of walking, uphill and Riding downhill. I really miss you badly and want to go home. But like I vowed from my last letters I’ve sent to you; I wouldn’t go over there until I’ve totally forgiven myself for my actions. Anyway, I’m not having a great night so far. I’m like currently 70 miles away from the Faterra border right now, and Like 15 miles from the nearest town I can mail this letter from. It’s Currently raining right now and it’s borderline freezing. It’s not quite snowing yet, but it feels like it’s about to. I love the material I made my kite out of. It makes one hell of an improvised survival blanket I can wrap myself up in and keep myself warm with. Today I came across a massive Elk that I killed and butchered up. I had a rather good lunch today and I have enough meat for a good meal tonight. I was warned by a Tribe of Lyieku that’s camped up here in the Ala-Ash mountains that its ill-advised to cook meat between here and the Faterrian Mountain range. They said there are like some ancient monsters in these parts that have a keen scent of smell and will kill you for your food if you’re not careful. With that being said I will just cook all my meat tonight and leave first thing in the morning. I miss you dearly and I promise I will be home in the next 2 months. Anyway, I need to start cooking my steaks with these wild carrots and onions I found. I will write to you when I get to Faterra. I really miss you and the other girls. Life is just not the same with you near me. But at the same time I love this solo freedom of adventuring. Please keep being Awesome and take care of yourself.

-Love Ryan.”

Zephyr smiles at the letter and kisses it. She walks into Kannell’s Room and sees that shes still sleeping. She walks deeper into her room and removes all the empty whiskey bottles from her bed and her room. She throws all the bottles int the trash and comes back with a freshly wet wash cloth and kneels by Kannell’s bed and starts cleaning off all the dirt that was on her face. As Zephyr cleans her up, she remembers Kannell ended up passing out face down in the dirt last night near Noodles grave.

Zephyr has been carrying her inside for the past 3 weeks now and still really feels bad for her. She needs to take her out on an adventure, but really doesn’t know where they can go. She just scrubs her face and her arms clean while she puts together a plan for them.

Meanwhile back in Faterra, Ryan just finished up on catching Alex up with everything she wanted to know.

“That’s pretty much where we are now” He tells her

Alex just smiles at him and leans her head back in the water while she holds his cellphone in his hand. She hits play and resumes playing “Never Look Back” from The Nearly Deads from the middle part of the song she paused it from. She then grabs Ryan’s hand and looks into his eyes.

“It’s Okay, Your human. Your allowed to make mistakes Okay?” Alex replied to him while shooting him a cute Duck face. Ryan smiles at her gives her a hug.

“You know that’s extremely sweet. I needed to hear that. You want to hear something sweet as well?” He asks her.

“What?” Alex asked him seeming curious.

“It’s okay to be flat chested. Flat chested girls hold people closer to their hearts” He told her in a flirty tone. He then pats her on her head and pulls himself out of the pool. Alex shoots him a gigantic smile and hops out of the hot spring completely naked. She then glances over at the mountain peak again and can see another mini avalanche on the side of the mountain. She then can make that object she saw earlier with even better detail. That’s when her mood changes and she becomes terrified.

“Oh No! You have to be kidding me!” Alex screams while stomping her foot in anger.

“Wait? Whats wrong?” He asks her. She grabs his head and points his head in the direction of an angry creature that was descending the mountain. It was like a half a mile from the base the mountain and looked like it was headed toward the village.

“Is that what… I think it is??!” Ryan asked Alex.

Alex doesn’t say anything and quickly gets dressed. She then picks up her sword and stomps toward the middle of the village. The village’s bell then starts ringing urging everyone of danger headed their way.

“Ryan did you happen to eat, or cook any meat within 30 miles of this mountain range?” Alex asks him while she sharpens up her sword.

“Umm, Kind of??” Ryan replies to her.

“Uhh-oh. Please explains what Kind of means” Alex urged him.

“I found a wild goat foraging for food. I came too close to it and it became aggravated and aggressive toward me. I had to blast it with a fire spell in self-defense. I accidently roasted it and decided to savage a few scraps of meat from it for my hike down that mountain. I was cautious about doing that because I remember I killed an elk like a few days ago and gave most of the meat to a Lyieku tribe in exchange for a blanket. They warned me not to cook meat in this zone, and I did my best not to put any scent out there” He told her.

“Oh No!!! By roasting that goat and taking those scraps, you gave that thing a scent to locked on to!” Alex told Ryan with a great sense of fear to her voice. Alex takes off running to the back of the village where they see a pissed off Yeti coming down the mountain.

“Are you kidding me?! This world has those things in it?” Ryan screams sounding pissed off.

“Yep, and those things are not easy to defeat. They enrage and go berserk at 30% health.

“How strong is it overall?” Ryan askes her in a panic

“It can pick up a 25-ton boulder and throw it like a baseball when its enraged. We are going to need a healer big time!” Alex shouts in anger.

“Can’t we get one of the locals to heal?” He asks Alex.

“No! that’s not advised. You don’t use the locals for a suicidal fight for a problem you caused! Look lets kick this things ass and see what happens below 30%. You being the son of the almighty Bunnell may actually swing the odds in our favor. Plus, I’ve had a similar fight with man eating flower before. I kind of know what to do” She tells him.

Ryan pauses in his tracks and frowns. “Wait man eating flower?” Ryan said in confusion. He then starts jogging and attempts to catch up with Alex.

“You know what if what you are saying is true, then let’s buff up!” Ryan shouts to her.

Alex looks at Ryan and Smirks at him. She then proceeds to put on the song “I Don’t Really Know” From Middle Class Rut On Party Mode.

“Nice Song Selection…Smartass” Ryan tells Alex as he pulls out his sword.

The two runs through the town in a hurry as everyone out of the town to the hot spring. Ryan and Alex then get of whiff of the Yeti as they near it and the smell is horrible.

The Yeti sees them in front of them and then Lets out terrifying roar and starts charging at them.

“I can’t Believe were doing this!!!” Alex screams at Ryan as she takes off charging toward the Yeti with her sword with Ryan right behind her.
