At World's End Entry 102
(Leah’s POV)Is this what you had in mind, Jerry?Is this why you didn’t want to tell any of us where you were going to?Is this why you disbanded the coalition and begged for no-one to follow you?You already planned to sacrifice yourself like this?How can you make such a decision without first consulting us?Did you really think we’d act as a drawback?That we won’t be able to help out?Is that why you did all this?How could you?... How could you be so selfish!I gritted my teeth as I realized just how much Jerry has had to carry on his back for so long.How long did it take for him to make the decision to go through with this plan?There’s no way he was able to figure it out on day 1.Which means he used each day to temper himself for this exact moment.Just how much suffering did he endure alone?I always knew him to be different but to such an extent?... Should I be happy?Of course it wasn’t difficult for that question to be answered as a teardrop slid down my cheek and droppe

(Leah’s POV)The tar monsters charged at us while roaring incomprehensible bullshit.It was quite annoying hearing them make such noise but it’s not like they’d stop if we asked them.Right now, I was pissed.Pissed that the man that made me hope that not all men are bad decided to do something bad.He decided to take all our problems and make it his own, forgetting that we are still together in this.It’s so freaking annoying!I’ve never felt so upset before.Make sure you come back alive, Jerry or I swear I’m going to mutilate your corpse!…Wow, did I just say that?Darn it, keep your head in the game.Let’s deal with this first.Closing my eyes to stabilize my thoughts, I spread out my arms and then performed the act of pulling out a staff.By the time I opened my eyes, it was in my hands.I glanced to my side to find that the others were prepared to fight as well.Without further Ado, we charged forward.Honestly, this is complete madness!***(Isabella’s POV)Am I upset?I’m not

(Jerry POV)“Uwaaagh!” I screamed out as I was tossed across the white room like a punching bag.My body fell to the ground awkwardly and I could have sworn I heard something go pop somewhere on my body.My body hurt and my bones ached and my muscles were mostly torn.I was in a state where it was crazy how I was still conscious.It felt so painful, so freaking painful but I didn’t black out just yet.No, I can’t.If I do so, then Philip would realize what’s happening and prepare for the others.I have to stay awake till they get into the maze and make their way across.That’s what I owe everyone out there for my mistakes.Yeah, that was my plan.I considered it after realizing that Dr. Philip and the Dreamer were working in tandem to suppress and devour us from the girl that managed to survive returning to the valley.Someone with the brilliance of Dr. Philip, even though I hate to admit it, would be able to outsmart us no matter how much we try to fight back.That’s a fact that can’

(Dr. Philip’s POV)I watched the tentacles of the Dreamer wrap around the boy and at that moment, I wanted to rip him apart and I could, with only a mere thought.Without a need to lift my finger, I could rip the child apart and end this once and for all but the Dreamer would expel me as a result.For some reason, it decided that no matter what, it just have the boy.I don’t know why.I have asked and questioned it repeatedly but it didn’t bother to give me an answer for why it chose this boy over me.Me!The same person that had heeded it’s call and had tended to it for so long.The one that had helped it loosen it’s shackles, allowing it to regain it’s powers slowly.The one that brought 200 minds for it to feed on.200 subconscious minds!I was the one that understood it best.When the others saw the Otherworldly as mere monsters to be killed and destroyed, I saw them as a natural process.I was the one that wanted to merge the human subconscious with the body of an Otherworldly!B

(Richard’s POV)It was complete chaos as I watched from my position.I hasn’t expected it to get to such a degree but it happened.Thinking back now, I realize that maybe I hadn’t expected a lot of things.Several things had happened outside of my expectations, completely subverting my understanding of the world.First it hard to do with the girl that dared to talk back to me even when I actively tried to suppress her with my innate talent.It was a first.I would have never expected such a thing yet it happened before my eyes.Then I was confused but thinking back now, I was also quite… excited.I had been searching for so long.Looking for those that would see me for who I am and stand on equal footing with me.I saw such a spirit in Jerry and his group of ragtag friends which was why I joined then even though they clearly showed suspicion toward me.And I was right to have done so.Because of them, I have experienced something that I never thought I would have.Next on my list of u

(Dr. Philip’s POV)Look at them.Pathetic little insects struggling to survive.Struggling to escape their inevitable fate.Oh so pathetic.If only they understood what was in store for them… of course, it’s not like I haven’t given them an inkling.But that’s just how humans are.Even when it looks like there is no hope, they still find some unlikely place to seek hope.Isn’t that how and why the tower was able to stand in it’s position today?Because humanity just couldn’t accept that it was it’s time to fall and decided to carry out a pointless struggle against the natural order of the world.But of course, a hundred years later and they should have realized by now… there was no stopping it.Humanity was doomed and yet… they still fought.Annoying cockroaches!These ones here would only add to the number of insects struggling against providence.It would be an honor to take them out and feed them to my new form.So I descended down, using the sun as a means to project myself into t

(Jerry’s POV)I stared at the squirming flesh of the gigantic brain that was as large as half the academy.It no longer caused me pain, even though there was still a slight headache but at least it was bearable.I pursed my lips and instinctively kept my breathing at a measured pace.Since I was going to die, at least die with some dignity.It’s messed up though… I really didn’t think it would end like this.You… you are a shard.I blinked at the strange way the Otherworldly spoke.Shard?What was it talking about?Contemplating whether I should ask or keep to myself, my curiosity won me over in the end.Since I was going to die, might as well sate my curiosity… I think.“What are you talking about?”Do you not know?“Know what?”Of your special identity“I don’t understand what you are saying.”Ah… I see. You haven’t awakened yet. No wonder you are so weak.“What…” I was left dumbfounded as well as speechless.Unlike my previous conversations with Otherworldly which as basically only

(Richard’s POV)I didn’t know what came over me.All I knew was that I saw the sun seek to destroy us and I shot at it.No, wasn’t it just at Leah?I could have turned and fled immediately, after all, it was a sun!I still recall what was said about the sun.It was a fiery ball of gases that exuded heat encompassing an entire space larger than even the Earth.That was already quite fearsome.Even though this was a fake sun, it didn’t mean that I could just face it head on.So running was the right choice but to where exactly?I couldn’t figure it out.Of course it’s not like shooting it would help.It was a sun!How could a mere gun borne out if the figment of my imagination hope to face off against such a celestial body.But I did it regardless and now as it stared at me, I didn’t know what to do.I was terrified, even more than when I stood before my father otherwise known as the Stark family head.Was it because this time the aura was directed towards me in the form of killing inte
