[ #7 : The Journey Above ] : iBella

While Ping is just standing there, Bella held his hand. "Hey... you there?" She inquired with a worried tone, causing the leaf boy to become startled. He turned to her and just gestured a thinking emoji (🤔 hmm). Bella understood quickly. "Well, would you mind climbing up now?" She invited him with a gentle smile, one that is warm enough to melt vulnerable people. Kreek just stood there, waiting for his friend's reply. He then used a thumbs up to indicate that he's going to join them on their conquest to climb up.

The new trio went up on their journey, each of their steps on varying paces. Kreek is the slowest while Ping is the fastest. Meanwhile, Bella is looking above, analyzing anyone from above that could sabotage their way up to the top, running at average speed. As they make their way up, every other players they saw are falling while dying, and the others scream as they drop their way down. What they also didn't realize is that there's a timer.

Five Minutes Left.

There's five hundred feet to go up over all, and they're only at two hundred and sixty three.

Bella slipped up due to focusing too much on possible enemies, but a hand reached for her. It was Ping's. A presence made distanced by his speed and inability to speak, but to say that he caught her eye is an understatement. So far, he seems like the friendliest. Someone she could help. Maybe she could help him regain his voice if he's okay with it?

Anyway, he helped her up, and it was just in time before another disappearance of stairs came by. They continued climbing, and going up as they speak. "Enemy at six o' clock!" He declared, but immediately changed his mind. "Nevermind, ENEMIES above and below!"

Bella, Kreek and Ping quickly made a run above the stairs, each one having their quirks to survive the sabotage.

Bella attempted to steer away from the red bullets. She jumped, ran, and dodge every shot against her. And after a few tries and a close encounter with the gun, she managed to tackle one of them, taking the weapon and shooting the assassin with it. In a flash, their body turned red and disappeared in the air, never to be seen again.

Kreek dodged a bomb from above, then another, and more. He proceeded to throw one back to the thrower, which exploded to Roblox pieces. Every single hit he encountered during this procedure made his very soul hurt, and his avatar was showing pixels that represented the damage he endured. Every. Single. One.

Both of them struggled with the enemies while Ping... just tried his best to overcome his own obstacle. He ran from the sword wielder, the one that killed him earlier. With a panicked face, he earned faster steps and heavier breaths as both he and his murderer were both running for his life. Then.. he stepped on a red platform.

Ping was able to reach the top, but was that enough? All he got was a sword! But then he tackled the player on the winner's area, then stabbed him in the chest, his succeeding vengeance subtly traced in the fingerprints stained in his weapon. He proceeded to drop below, on the right track to save Kreek and Bella from more enemies.

Kreek is fine, but Bella is struggling with another gunner. With the new victor finally getting a clear target, she heard a stab from behind, only for her to see Ping with a sword, smiling for her. He then pointed up, so she made her journey to the top alongside a newfound determination stemming from the heart of hers.

Before she met the two, the winners punched, charged, attacked and tried to murder her willpower, but now, her motivation to win just skyrocketed, almost like she could feel the skies cheering for every fiber of her being. Kreek followed suit, and the three of them got to run to the red checkpoint. Bella first, then Kreek, then Ping is last, ready to throw a sword when needed.

It wasn't done there though, the winners are pissed that someone somehow managed to surpass their wrath. From the get-go, people surrounded the trio, seemingly wanting to push the three off to the ground after the stabbing deeds that one of them had done.

"YOU DARE HELP THE PATHETIC CLIMBERS!?" The player who was holding a laser shouted condescendingly, invoking fear to everyone around them. "You.. defied the rules of the winners. This is supposedly for the best of the best, not for anyone that got pitied and helped by equally pitiful b*tches!" screamed the insolent brat that they are, at least according to Bella. But the unexpected happened— their leader lit up their laser, changed the color to a sickening blue and flung Ping outside the edge of the map. He's about to fall into an infinite roblox hole, only because of spite.

He didn't deserve this...
"no no no, NO!" Bella called for him. "PING!" She swiftly realized that since she's a winner, she can reactivate whatever is disabled of her before. She spread out her wings and flew down immediately, leaving Kreek to the spiteful winners.

Ping was just numbly falling — everything and nothing hurts at the same time. Every problem he tried to face, he gave up on it on this very moment. With his consciousness slowly coming to a close, he unwillingly closed his eyes in order to perish at least a bit more peacefully.

As for Bella, her struggles for saving him were becoming clearer and clearer as he fell faster and faster into the void, but she didn't give up. Reaching out with a hand, she held his with great power as she floated back up alongside an unconscious Ren. She was so relieved that she was able to make it.

Seeming to miss some action, she observed that Kreekcraft was fighting with another laser, dodging every gun, sword, and laser as he is throwing off each and every winner in the deep end except for him. And after he flung everyone else, a portal opens, leaving up white sparks. She decided to drop down after this, and she spoke: "shall I go with you?"

"PING! IS HE ALIVE? DID HE GET KI— Okay, you can, I guess? Just carry him... okay?" He worriedly expressed his concern and Bella immediately understood.

"Yeah he's alive, no he isn't killed, YAY! let's go!" She let go of many replies in one message.

And as they step into the portal, history marks a trio that managed to beat the Stairs of Rage... and somebody else isn't happy about it.
