The Rainbow Bridge (Rewritten)

Chapter 38: The Show Must Go On

Jaxon had gotten Dream down the steps nearing the lobby, though ended up stopping to catch his breath. Dream couldn't help but laugh as she collected herself. "Oh my God! That was insane!" Dream said, "I can't believe we survived an encounter with an angel! Granted, that was a bad one, oh who am I kidding that one was a bully! Jax I can't believe you---"

Dream soon stopped as she realized exactly why Jaxon stopped.

She saw that half of his right arm had been gone. He was trying his best to stop the bleeding but his hand had been completely dyed with his own blood.

"...Oh God--!" She said, stunned, "You're arm---!"

"... Don't worry---It's just a flesh wound... I'll be okay." He said with a smirk though he groaned in pain soon after; he ended up collapsing to his knees.

"Jax!" Dream exclaimed as she went over to him, "No, no, no, no, no! What did you do!? What have you done?!"

"I had to do what I needed to---" Jaxon said, "---I couldn't let her take you."

"But you're arm--" She said before she realized something, "---You-Your healing factor! We can just go back and get your arm, so---"

She soon noticed his expression as it seemed to have clicked. "... Oh no, no, no, no, no---" Dream said, "---Jax---I--I'm so sorry! It's my fault that---"

"It's not your fault." Jaxon told her as he gave her a hug with his single arm, "This was my choice. Like it was your choice to come back here. Don't ever think otherwise."

Dream could only cry as she hugged him; Jaxon only patted her head as they didn't mind the blood. "Though downside---I don't think I can fight with my condition." He said.

"Well no duh!" She said as she sniffled, "Your arm is just gone!"

"Okay don't rub it in---" Jaxon said, "---Help me up."

Dream nodded before she helped him to stand; they then started to move again as they could hear the fighting outside. "What are we gonna do now?" She asked.

"Don't worry--" Jaxon replied giving her a reassuring smile, "---I think there's a place we can hide..."

"Right flank, advance! Left flank, watch your six!"

The battle raged on at the front line of the hotel. Though the Cannibal Army had helped push them back; they even went so far as to bite limbs off of their body. They had been getting this kind of thing had been possible with Pentious's guidance.

"Moro! Advance forward 6 o clock!" Sir Pentious said.

Moro laughed as he swung his angle laced chainsaw "YOU GOT IT SNAKE MAN!" he charged in slicing the angels as he said "Let's see Armani-Jackson top tha-"

BOOM--when an exorcist as Decimo rode on his face while crashing into more as he gave a warycry with Ulrica and Weston having his back.

"DAMN IT! HOW DOES IT MAKE IT LOOK COOL!" Moro shouted

"FORGET THE RECORD!" Sir Pentious called out. "DO YOUR DUTY!"

"ALRIGHT FINE!" Moro yelled as he charged.

Sir Pentious looked on his tablet; he soon turned to Vaggie and Charlie, "Ladies! They're more coming up on your right! Vagatha! Get ready for them!"

"Not my name, but got it!" Vaggie said before she went to attack.

Charlie had been blocking the angels attacks with her shield and spraying dust in their faces to keep them off of her.
