I'm amazed I got this chapter to over a thousand words. :P

The dark swirling abyss ended and Brian found himself standing in a colorful world with flowers and butterflies. In front of him was a path that led two different ways with the right side leading to a small bridge over a flowing river. In the middle of the path stood a white post with the second badger tail. He jogged over to take the tail and then investigated the sign that had the name 'Nasty' which pointed to the left and 'Nice' which pointed to the right. He decided to go down the right of the path since it sounded more interesting.

As he neared the bridge, the sound of a crying woman stopped Brian in his tracks. He looked over and saw a gigantic bumblebee circling around a slab of wood with tears flying everywhere. He frowned, suddenly feeling bad for the bee. Now normally Brian is afraid of bees 'cuz they like to fly into his curly hair for no reason and make him scream like a little girl. Freddie and the guys would tell you since they went to a beekeeper farm one time and a swarm of the angry little fuckers went after the poodle heads hair. But enough of that shit 'cuz Brian is a true British gentlemen and felt so bad for the crying bee so he went over to see what was wrong.

"Umm, hello there," he says to her. "You alright?"

The bee turned and shook her head. "Oh those nasty, nasty wasps!" she sobs. "What ever shall we do? My beautiful hive has gone, and I'll never see it again!"

"I could go and find it for you if you'd like?" Brian offers.

"Oh yes, please do!" she cries. "Otherwise, I don't know what we're going to do!"

"Alright, just calm down, there's no need to cry, love," Brian says. "Where is it?"

The bee shook her head. "I don't know where exactly so you'll have to follow the signs."

Brian sighed. "Ok I'll be right back."

Figuring that he'd have to go down the other path, Brian made his way back towards the sign and headed off in the 'Nasty' direction. He passed a barbed wire fence that led to what looked like the entrance to a war zone before coming upon the biggest hive he had even seen in his entire life. The strong smell of honey filled the air as he walked further up the path and that's when he saw it. The crying bees hive sitting at the entrance to the giant hive.

"Seems easy enough," Brian says to himself, picking it up.

He turned to leave when suddenly three big nasty ugly ass looking wasps came flying out of the entrance of the big hive and they looked pissed as hell.

"Hey!" the cigar smoking wasp yells. "Some curly haired wise guy is trying to steal our nice new hive!"

"C'mon boss, let's get his ass!" the skinny wasp yells.

"Yeah, let's get him!" the fat wasp adds in.

Brian took off running down the path, the wasps in hot pursuit as they attempted several times to sting him while throwing a bunch of insults at him. He ran with all his might till eventually he was able to get some distance from the wasps.

"I got it!" he yells out to the bumblebee as he nears her nesting area.

Suddenly he tripped and fell on his face, losing his hold on the hive and it flew through the air, landing right on the wooden slab. The hive then transformed into a gun turret and the bumblebee jumped inside and aimed the turrets straight at the three wasps who soon caught up. They stopped dead in their tracks and the bee open fired at the enemies who turned and took off screaming before being obliterated by the bullets.

Brian cheered and went over to the hive as the bumblebee got out. Her crying was done and she smiled happily at the curly haired guitarist.

"Oh thank you, you're such a wonderful human being!" she says. "How can I ever repay you?"
