Because of the news of Technoblade's passing, I was not able to write this chapter. He was supposed to be an integral part, but after I kept putting it off, I'm not in the mental state to write about Technoblade and his character. I will post this chapter, with 0 editing, and it will sadly be incomplete. I had a lot of hopes in the beginning that I'm just not able to pull off. This book was very terribly done, extremely rushed, and just doesn't show what I can do in terms of writing. I apologise because it wasn't able to be completed, let alone made better. We all miss you Technoblade, and I know you'll win against God in heaven.
Techno POV-
I don't think I've ever gotten ready for a long trip so fast before. I had to get ready for anything but that hardly mattered, nothing really did. Not in that moment. As I put as many potions in my bag as possible, I went over the options of what could've happened that Tubbo would message me. I knew whatever it was wouldn't be good, what with the message consisting of nothing but 'Need help next to L'Manhole' I knew that I'd probably be fucked over if I didn't arrive soon. The emergency at hand was desperate, that was all I knew, but even that was a powerful motivator for the packing.
But powerful motivators didn't help me go as fast as I wanted. I started to fear for the worst, but I kept on, determined to make it to my goal.
As I rode through the now grassy terrain, I heard a collective scream come from a group of people not too far away. I knew I would have to go faster, but doubt spread through me, making me more nervous than before. As crucial as it was, I wasn't sure it was possible. But as a figure crashed through the trees, I knew I wouldn't need to go closer. It was ironic, here I was, thinking that someone else would need help. Yet here I was, needing to get to a safe place, but failing to keep both me and Carl unharmed.
The earth shattering voice spoke before I could get too far, and as I turned around, it spoke again. "Despite coming from a world of evil, I am still shocked at the destructive forces of man's nature. But I will persist in my goal to cover the world in darkness, and that can't be stopped. Not even by you, Blood god." And that's the very moment my hope shattered. As much as I wished it was not true, it was here. The very day I had been dreading had crept up on me with no hesitation. And I had no way to keep it at bay.
Ranboo POV-
The only word to describe my situation was trapped. Trapped in my own mind, own body. Forced to look at what my body was doing. I wanted to stop it, but I couldn't. I knew it and I hated knowing that I was powerless against the thing that was taking me hostage in my own soul.
Even against my worst enemy, I could not wish that punishment upon. That dread, pain, guilt for what you have been made to do. Inconvincing, hurting, killing, the people you are close to. It hurts you. Hurts all of your body. No matter what someone has done, they will not face this. They should never have to. The worst man will never have to face the same fate I did in that moment. And I was too powerless to stop the destruction I was causing
Man this book was awful, I didn't have a plan in the beginning and it fell apart from there. Well, I hope everyone has a nice day, and to please forget this ever existed as its probably the worst thing I've ever created.
