Wretched.

The name burn a large whole within my head, and slowly it expands. Many memories floor through my head, creaking its very own floor boards. It is overwhelming, the memories shook me and crave a trail of cold on my back as more and more memories came back, I am not Blanche. I have a life out of this hell hole, and I am trapped within a game, Animal Jam. Yeah that's right, I am someone else.

But who?

The same unease feeling slowly battle against the warmth of my in coming memories, someone else I am not remembering. It is the same feeling I had when I was battling..who? Oh yeah, Skorm. I still feel like a memory is suppressed when I enter the dark files of Jamaa.

"Blanche, you okay? You seemed, a bit zoned out." Julian turned towards me, and for one second. I forgot what to say, I am suppose to say something? Or just stay quiet. I shot a fast glance at Wretched before fear surge through my body, shocking me frozen in place. A lump formed in my throat as Julian turn towards me, he's facial express was the same, he hasn't found out yet, at least I hope he didn't.

I use my best to stare at him with my best calm self while my insides are swirling in fear, I relax the muscles around my eyes, which soften my gaze. Slowly sitting up straight and then genitally relax my shoulders. Julian stared for a few seconds, then turn away to continue to do whatever he is doing. And in which, I finally found relief slowly creeping pass the layers of fear and danger.

And so the curiosity take over, what is he doing? I quietly, trying to avoid any particular loud noises shifted to my side, trying to have a glance at what Julian is doing. Some...Paper laid out on a simple table, one large sheet of paper. A scroll perhaps, spread out on the ancient table. On it, many symbols that I can not name, big and small layer evenly on the paper and imprinted on it with black ink.

"Let us start." Julian said as he lift up the rusted paper. And with that, Wretched was forced to move forward towards the deep endless hole, the tiger tries to struggle, but it was no use. His once strong legs falls asleep, now as he slowly approaches the pit he didn't put up a fight.

"And now let it begin." Julian stated, "Wretched Jungle. You sinful bastard. Dared to steal from the holy ground." The tiger didn't look, or move. He stood silent in a room echoes Julian's voice.

"You steal the codes from Zios, and now you have to return it." Julian continued, he seems disappointed but at the same time, amused and excited. Something bad is gonna happen, and it's coming very soon.

"You will return the code, and in which your mind will be lost in the world, it is for the greater good."

"For what?!" Wretched rebut, finally looking towards the face of death. "For torturing more people? Zios is long gone, you are just gonna use his power for your foul game!" Wretched's eyes flares up, but he is still weak as a falling leaf in autumn.

"Enough, we now start."

And so, the tiger was forced forward, closer and closer towards the hole. My stomach turns, and ache in fear.

The same fear rushed up in my systems, burning my throat.

"Stop."

The world stops, just for a second. Until it was shattered into chaos. "Spirit, you are back." Julian said with his words coated in poison, I swallow my saliva and cleared my throat. I stood up.

There's must be a way to stop this, and that sudden, I saw something. Codes, codes running through everything, I can see everyone and their weaknesses, including Julian's.

"You have brainwashed me, hurt my friends. Now you are gonna pay." I fire out just like the bravery flares up into a burning flame that is consuming everything. I can do this.

I charged, all of my strength put into it as I speed up, fire grows beneath me and drags along by my paws.

"No...no. No!" Fear finally stuck within Julian's eyes, he wanted to run but he cowards.

Before I reached him, I jump with all my might and reach out for him. And in that split second, everything happened.

The fire has now blew into an uncontrollable monster only follows my instructions, it is as fearsome has a deadly dragon and it flys with me carries me until I reached the brown headed male.

"The end Julian, I will suffer no more!" I shouted as the raging fire hits him, he was shocked as his pupils shrink in fear, he leaned back. But it was too late, as the fire gripped and latched onto him, I can hear him scream. And I enjoyed it.

And in that second, it leads to another thing.

Julian's gone, but where's Wretched.

Oh no.

A sudden inhuman roar ringed from the bottom of the pit as another monstrosity arise.

Wretched. What happen to you.

It was no longer Wretched. It was a monster, high as the sky with teeth like thousands of blades, I can no longer make out were's the eyes, but it was something special about this.

Wretched is now fused with Zios. The god who created Jamaa was as poisoned like Julian...Skorm and Zarfy.

In the end, the boss battle was never Julian.

It was Wretched.
