Lost in the Abyss

The End of it All?

Tw! Cussing and... y'all will hate me for this chapter. (Don't judge me, I have something planned for after this.)

(Reddoons POV)

"Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit!" Bow in hand, I dash across the plains. It's hard to breathe when you're getting chased by... I don't even know anymore! A massive tentacled monstrosity sprints ever closer to me. Death does approach on swift wings! I shouldn't have fired that arrow, even if it meant that dragon would die. My life or theirs?

The beast of void lets out a long bellowing roar. Their tentacles spring out at me one by one. I dodge and twist and turn, but it's difficult. The dragon from earlier is nowhere to be seen! Some thanks I get.

"RED! REDDD!" I turn around and spot Ashswag running closer. He's running ahead of the lurker and towards my side. "There's a plan that everyone just went over! I'll tell you..."

(Roxi POV)

I land back onto the ground and watch as a red clad man gets chased down. I silently apologize and turn back to the other humans.

"Alright, I have a plan, but it's gonna take a lot of effort!" I say.

The people all turn to me with wide eyes except for the masked one, I can't see his expression. I doubt he's shocked though; he's already heard me speak before.

"Don't just stand there gawking! We need to lead this lurker into the nether, and somehow free that host human from them!" I shout, not caring about the looks.

A human with a rainbow headband steps forward. "D- did you just talk?"

I narrow my eyes at him. "LISTEN TO WHAT I'M SAYING, DUMBASS! WE NEED TO GET THAT MONSTER INTO THE NETHER! Y'KNOW, THAT PLACE OF FIRE?!"

The human steps back and covers his ears. "Ok, ok, I'm sorry! Don't yell at me!"

My head snaps to look at the other players. "I need two of you to build a nether portal large enough to fit that monstrosity. I need another two of you to lead in there. Also," I dig one of my claws into my shoulder and peel off a scale. Wincing, I breathe onto the thing, and it glows a vibrant purple. Holding out the scale, I add, "can another brave soul use this scale to separate the host from the parasite?"

The humans stare blankly at me, then I realize that they can't understand me too well. The masked human seems to understand though. He turns around to look at the others.

"What the dragon is saying, basically we need five people for this monster to be destroyed. Two of you must build a massive nether portal. Two of you must lead the beast there. Then, I'll take this scale-" He reaches out and grabs it. "-and separate Branzy from that parasite!" The man explains. All of the players nod and begin choosing who will do what.

"You should do the portal..."

"I'll lead the monster..."

"Someone should tell Reddoons, or at least make sure he's still ok."

"Ashswag should do it, he's madly in love with him."

"HEY! I HEARD THAT!"

Snickers can be heard from the crowd. "Yeah, go save your crush!"

The man who supposedly is Ashswag, huffs and turns to run in the lurker's direction. The rest of the humans all put their hands together. Some kind of weird mortal ritual. The pairs of people run after the lurker as well, the masked human in pursuit. I shuffle my wings and lift off, boosting into the sky. My speed matches the humans, and we all approach the monster.
