AUTHORS NOTE:

The verdict has been decided. Commentation on by the Wattpad and A03 communities, there WILL be a 'worse ending result' for chapter Twenty-Two. This 'Alternative' ending will contain major non-con, bodily harm, and other topics that will be further explored in the warnings within the chapter. However, it will not be posted within the chapters of 'If Only, If Only' on any site. It will be it's own literature post, with proper labels and sincere warnings.

It will also be posted no where else but A03 due to rules and terms of Tumblr, Quotev and Wattpad. Even so, it will be left open for registered and unregistered readers to read, and comment on.

Let's get on with the chapter-

~~

If Azulin were thinking properly, he would have naturally questioned why the bigger bear had such a deep pocket to begin with- considering how easily the larger knife was hidden from him before.

However, he was too rigid and panicked to care about that. All he had was a small razor blade, and this bear over him had almost everything else. Height, weight, experience, and weapons.

Wait...

Yes, he did... he had every ounce of knowledge that he had been trying to shut down since this new world started. He vowed. He swore to himself that he wasn't going to be that way. Never again. If he didn't fight back, he was sure to never have the chance to be that way again- because he would probably end up dead after this.

He can't just sit here and take it. He can't let himself fall to his former self either.

What would he do?

He was snapped out of his panicked frame of mind by a huge slam to his gut, causing him to cough and choke. The slam to his gut left him floored- unable to move or breathe for several seconds. It was as if part of him had ruptured internally. It all throbbed from the aching pain- leaving him wheezing.

Sergeant Scruff found himself laughing at the little blue bear- before slamming his huge foot down on Azulin's left arm- ultimately crushing the blue bears Radius, Ulna and every bone in his hand. Azulin screamed in agony, letting out a feral growl as he went to pull away, only to feel a forceful tug on his neck.

Due to him not having the opportunity to cut every rope off of himself, he didn't notice that the rope around his neck for the 'leash' of sorts that the corrupted sergeant Scruff tied around him. Desperately, he tried to swing at the rope, only to have his now useless arm ground- making some of the pebbles from the dirt path scrape into what little remained of the in-tact nerves.

"Uh oh... it seems that you are caught in quite the situation, doll eyes." Scruff chortled, before pulling up his machete and grinning in such a twisted, evil way, Azulin's heart sunk into the pit of his stomach. He continued to struggle, his only objective was escape.

This amused the bear over him even more.

"Ah ah ah. We can't have a slippery little snake getting away from us now can we. You pesky little reptiles always seemed to find yourselves in the worst of places... don't you think so? How about I alleviate you of your arm there... not like it's of use anymore anyways, right?" Azulin froze, locking eyes with the sergeant bear over himself. The second he went to struggle- his left arm- from the elbow down, was severed from his body without a second to prepare for the fiery pain sent cascading through his whole system.

Azulin screamed again- his voice echoing throughout the forest- sending birds flying from their nests in to the crimson and pink dyed clouds that creeped in from the wavering horizon- fleeing from the inky blackness that called itself the night. Tiny stars aglow from their places in the cosmos flickered- almost as if they were laughing at him.

"Now, don't move a muscle. This will only hurt for a second, not that it matters." Scruff grinned- before flexing his hand- letting his claws come out a bit more. "I surely can't waste all of you. Your eyes are too pretty to destroy." Just as his hand got close enough- Azulin snapped and bit down on the finger closest to him- managing to completely snap one part of it off right at the knuckle.

There wasn't even a yell or a shout of pain from him. The bigger bear simply finished cramming his large fingers in Azulin's eye socket- dragging the eyeball out- albeit a little bit damaged as the small bear writhed below him, tears flowing from their ducts.

Azulin was getting tired, the blood flowing out from his arm, into the grass and dirt. He didn't know how long he could coax himself to stay awake. He continued to struggle, starting to kick despite his limbs trembling. His anger was festering, getting heavier and heavier, as his head was starting to lull to the side.

Just as he was starting to black out, Azulin heard his name being called by the fellow soldiers in his troupe. His eyes directed themselves toward the voices, and he immediately felt a spark of hope. That hope was immediately diminished when the big bear grabbed him by his head, squeezing it to a point where he was starting to get an intense headache.

He barely managed to give in to the wavering surroundings and clouded vision of his- every tense muscle in his body relaxing unintentionally. He let out another shaky breath as he went to move again, but he couldn't do it. He was too exhausted. Too tired and disoriented. What's worse is knowing that, in the end, he could do little to fight back.

He wanted to put this piece of shit in his place... surely knowing know that he had commit several more atrocities beyond this..

He was pathetic...

Useless...

"AZULIN!!"

He couldn't recall the voice... everything felt so far away.

"One more step... and I will drop this short little maggot off this cliff."

Azulin felt his body move, his dull, remaining eye stared at a mass of colors, where the voices were probably coming from. He went to try and take a breath, his entire body heaving as blood came spilling out of his mouth, before his head fell limp again- despite him still being partially conscious.

"Come now, dollface- surely you would love a good look at the fast running current and sharp rocks down there.. wouldn't you..?" The bigger bear laughed hysterically, before grabbing the rope attached to Azulin's neck, and dropping his body several inches- causing the blue bear to gag from the sudden loss of air. More blood pooling from his mouth all the while. It soaked into his tank-top and flowed down the little that remained of his arm.

At this point, he couldn't bother to bring up his good arm to try and pull his heavy body up, even a little bit.

This... this was like dying all over a again.

Everything mixed together in such a beautiful hue and all the distorted noises.

The crashing waves below him... they sounded... beautiful...

All of a sudden, he got the sensation of falling, several screams of his name falling on deaf ears.
