Chibi A/N: Ok... Just to be sure. Is the reader gonna feature in this?

A/N: Uh... Yeah. I'm gonna feature him promptly here.

Chibi A/N: You're not gonna cut away and add any other Characters leading to a massive roster to keep track of?

A/N: *Shakes his head a Little* Mmmm. No. I do plan on making Characters, but they're related to the story and only one is gonna be a part of the "Fun Times". The rest are side characters. However, you and I both know how that is.

Chibi A/N: Yeah, I kinda figured we were going down that route when the Bunny Sniper Gal showed up. Still, what is this chapter about?

A/N: Stay tuned in to find out!

Chibi A/N: Really?

A/N: Na I'm just fuckin with ya! It's a confrontation between Y/N and Cruelty. Now let's quit yapping and start the chapter already.

As You and Pari continued to travel down this insanely long hallway... Seriously you've been walking a hot minute down this path. The Sniper Bun could tell they were being stalled on purpose by the one who rules this place. Probably due to her presence if she had to guess. Though she wondered why the ruler of this realm hadn't just separated them already.

Y/N: *Annoyed Grunt* What did this dude like taking long walks!? *Sigh* Least Friskie is safe. I bet if she was here, she would be complaining... Or getting into trouble.

Pari's ear twitched a little after hearing Friskie's name. It seems that topic piqued her interest a bit from the way her face perked up a bit.

Pari: Who is Friskie? Is she the other person that fell down with you?

Oh boy... I'm sure you've already heard just how chaotic Friskie can be so I'll spare you another explanation.

Y/N: Well... Think of the most Chaotic Horny Klutz in existence and you'll more or less have Friskie. Oh and when I meant Horny, I mean she is... Uh... Into me doing other girls. Preferably while she is watching... Although she'll settle for me taking pic's if she can't physical be there.

Ah, Pari's eyes widened a bit in surprise. You said that so casually as if it were an everyday thing. That and is didn't expect this version of Frisk to be so... Well That. Yes I know, you've got many questions. I hope to at least answer Some of them in due time.

Pari: O-oh... Uh... Wow. That's... Interesting... H-how many women has she allowed you to... Have Relations with?

She said with a slight blush on her face as she was wondering if this was a recent thing or that you had a line of hookups just waiting for you back on the surface. The answer is kinda complicated... I mean not really, but you get the picture.

Y/N: Well I only had two hookups so far since I fell down here. I only started to have Relations with other women After dropping into the underground. Above Ground is an interesting story as most of it was Friskie writing fan fiction about Me and Various women she found attractive. Let's see... She wrote one about a teacher, a nerdy gal, a popular gal, and the local stoner gal. That last one was pretty much the Collage Bicycle if you know what I mean.

Wow... That uh... That last one is giving me SR2 Shaundi vibes there. If you know, you know. But yeah, you're life above ground is weird and Very different from the norm that she experiences. Then again everything about this universe is weird seeing as a lot of people are gender-bent. It's not like hers, but that's to be expected... Unfortunately, her universe isn't around anymore... But she wasn't gonna dwell on that, it's not something she wanted to think about.

Pari: I see... Your life on the surface is a strange one.

She stated pretty much hitting the nail on the head. But then again it would be pretty boring if it wasn't as strange as it is. In a sense, you wouldn't have it any other way you guess. Maybe Pari will be able to participate in those wacky activities.

Y/N: *Chuckle* You can say that again. Maybe you can hang out with us sometime!

Pari crossed her arms a bit while raising one of her eyebrows with a slight smile on her face. You can already tell that she was gonna ask a question, one you've already been trying to solve yourself.

Pari: In order to do that you'd have to break the Barrier and not just pass through it. How do you plan on doing that? So far the only way to do it is to attack it with Seven Human SOULS.

She had a point. So far a lot of evidence is pointing towards that as the only solution, yet you feel that there must be some way to break it without having to sacrifice more human lives. You don't exactly know what it is yet, but you're Determined to find out.

Y/N: I don't rightly know yet. But I'm going to find a way to save everyone and let them see the sky again. They deserve that much after what's been done to them.

You stated with a hint of remorse as you knew all too well how Humanity likes to destroy things they don't like. Whether that be openly like how it was back then, or in a purposely confusing and roundabout way as it is now... Which if you don't know is Cancel Culture in my eyes at least. Doesn't mean that we still don't use the direct way today, but that's an entirely different topic... A dark one at that.

Pari: I see...

She stopped for a moment which you soon noticed as you stopped as well and looked at her with a curious gaze. She was deep in thought as if contemplating something. There was a question lurking in her mind and the words were dancing at the edge of her lips. After a few moments, she finally asked something that seemed a tad bit disturbing in your opinion.

Pari: Let me ask you this... If you had to Kill to keep that promise... Would you be able to? Would you end someone's life with just one human to save a mountain full of strangers?

Your smile dimmed to a slight frown after hearing that. While blunt it was a serious question, one that's hard to answer. While I could sit here and debate which is right and wrong, they're won't be a black and white answer. Still, you try to answer positively to the best of your ability.

Y/N: In all honesty. I don't want it to come to that. I Want to save everyone I can while not spilling a drop of innocent blood while doing it. I know that's a bit selfish, but I have to try at least.

After stating this somewhat confidently as you hadn't exactly planned on harming anyone... Mainly because the people down here are more or less Goobers trying to make the most of a bad situation, but also because it wouldn't feel right after what was done to them. It's a bit like rubbing salt in the wound after that... However, Pari threw a bit of a curve ball at you. With a serious stare level with your vision, she asked you another question.

Pari: And if the blood split wasn't Innocent? Would you still kill them?

This question feels like just the first of many. While you don't want to be rude, you also don't feel like playing twenty questions. So you decided to get to the heart of her curiosity with a question of your own.

Y/N: What are you getting at? If you're trying to tell me something, just tell me rather than beat around the bush.

You rather bluntly ask as these prodding questions were putting you on edge here... Even more so than being in a madman's personal realm. For a moment there was a tense pause between you two before the silence was broken.

Pari: There was a person I knew back when I was a normal human. They promised much the same as you, but they were constantly running into dead end after dead end. They didn't have the power needed to break the barrier on their own and they were getting increasingly desperate.

The Bunny Sniper lowered her head as she recounted a rather dark part of her past. Though not for the reasons most would think of when discussing the events of one's own death.

Pari: At this time I was captured by the Royal Guard and taken to the place... It was there that I met my end at the hands of the ruler of the Underground. I remember looking at the pretty yellow flowers after playing with them before everything went black.

She took a moment to collect herself as she looked to the side. Clearly what she was recounting was a bit... Traumatic.

Pari: When I Awoke I was in a glass prison of sorts. It was designed to house SOULS and prevent them from escaping. The ruler of the Underground had this saddened look on their face as they apologized before leaving me there. I was scared as my prison sunk into the ground. My vision was shrouded by darkness once more. I couldn't breathe, blink, or even move. It felt like I was trapped in a void with no sort of comfort. But... Nothing could have prepared me for what happened when I could see again.

She paused for a moment once more as she looked at her ribbon. As she did so she couldn't help but think of the time she got it. It was from someone very special in her life... Someone she failed to mention before.

Pari: The one who gave me this Ribbon... Was my older Brother. His name was Orion and he was looking after me while I was playing in the woods. He also fell into the hole with me when he tried to catch me... He was also the man who made the same vow you did.

Oh... Yeah, you're starting to connect the dots here and it's not looking pretty. I'm pretty sure you all know what happens when someone that desperate suddenly loses something they loved... Or a least have some idea of what I'm getting at.

Pari: Once he discovered what had happened to me... He... Snapped. He took a Bow and some Arrows he found in a hidden away place and began hunting down every Monster he could find. Young and Old, Guilty and Innocent... It didn't matter what or who they were, he killed them just the same and soon... They were all gone. In the end, the ruler of the Underground wasn't even able to get a swing off before several arrows were embedded into them, killing them almost instantly. Before my brother could take my SOUL back to the surface, the universe we resided in started to collapse in on itself shortly after that and everything went black once more. When I woke up once more, I was already in another body with my brother nowhere to be seen. After what he did... I don't think I want to see him again.

Damn... You kinda guessed that she was from another world like Dess was, but you didn't expect that it would be completely destroyed... And by her own brother no less. At least that's what you are piecing together in your head at the moment.

Y/N: I see... So you're telling me this now because I remind you of him, don't I?

You asked a bit hesitantly. Mainly because you wondered what would have happened if Friskie had met the same fate if you had done the same as he did. Pretty troubling to dwell on if you were gonna be honest.

Pari: A bit. You two have some similarities but enough differences as well. For starters, he was as Active as you were. Nor was he as powerful. You're clash with the Harvester proved that much.

That was a bit Anime Protag, wasn't it? The truth was you were following your instincts... Kinda like the first time you meet Justice and he sent his monsters on Friskie. As for the "Active" part... Well, let's just say Hentai Protag is also a title you hold as well, and leave it that for now.

Y/N: Yeah, I'm pretty sure I wanted to run a Clinic, not a Morgue that specializes in making autopsies on corpses that are still breathing...

You stated in a bit of a joking tone. To which Pari giggled a bit finding your attempt at Gallows Humor amusing. However just as you two were about to head out once more, a series of chains separated You and Pari damn near instantaneously! As you try to yank some of the Chains keeping you and Pari separated, you hear a booming voice laughing in the distance.

Cruelty: Oh what a splendid inspiration! And from that Traitor's former SOUL Battery no less!

Yeah, you and Pari are gonna pin on that hole SOUL Battery thing for later. Right now you two are more worried about what he meant by "Inspiration".

Y/N: The hell are you on about you fuckin psycho!?

You shouted in a pretty disgruntled voice if I was to put it Mildly. However, this Madman was all too happy to share his plans if it meant insight more anger from you.

Cruelty: Oh I am so very glad you asked! You see that Traitor's sister gave me an idea. What if I captured someone you loved so dearly and slowly tortured them until their untimely demise right in front of your eyes? *Sinister Laughter* My! That might just be enough to get you going, wouldn't it!?

The Deranged Lunatic continued to laugh as you gritted your teeth and balled your fists. However, before you reply with hateful words, Pari stops you.

Pari: *Whisper* Don't let him get to you. That's what he wants. Besides he can't do so. Not while he has you trapped here.

Soon after she whispered that the hallway began to change as something in the distance on the other end started getting closer... You think it might be a door of some sort. Pari still had more to say before the realm shifted once more, most likely separating you two.

Pari: *Whisper* He'll probably split us up. Don't let him get into your head. I'll try to meet up with you as soon as possible, but you might be on your own for a bit. Be careful and don't-!

Before she could finish more chains shot up and completely sealed you off from Pari! Cruelty laughed as you turned around to see an odd-looking door. It opened by sliding upwards and led into a strange gray room.

Cruelty: *Wicked Laugh* Finally! Now that the third wheel is gone, it is time for the real fun to begin! *Sinister Chuckle* Go on! Enter.

Well... Not like you can give him the middle finger and leave, so you guess you'll have to comply even though you don't want to. You entered this rather dull gray room and you immediately noticed another door similar to the door you just went through. Not only that but there is a table with what looks like some gloves and a gun... Not looking good so far, I'm not gonna lie.

Cruelty: Oh do take the equipment from the table! You'll find it very helpful for what I have in store for you!

You narrowed your eyes a bit as you wondered what type of dumbass gives his opponent a loaded gun and some gloves. Even if you didn't want to, you had a feeling that this insane wack job wouldn't let you leave until you did as he demanded. So you walked over to the table and examined the equipment he gave you.

(I don't own these. I just googled "Fingerless Gloves" and found that.)

Y/N: What? Are you giving me a gun so I can give you a lethal high-speed lobotomy?

You asked with a Hint of aggression as the whole Dead Kid Body Piles was still fresh in your mind. The revolver is a Snub Nose .38 Special with six rounds, probably a Smith & Wesson given its appearance. If you're wondering how you know that... Well you were studying at college to be a doctor, but that alone obviously doesn't exactly imply you would learn how to patch up bullet wounds since being a doctor could mean any number of things. No, you learned how to patch up a Gunshot from a fellow classmate who had to do it in a quick pinch after a relative got shot. That and you watch GunTubers on YouTube when you're studying so you know a little bit about firearms. Though you wouldn't call yourself a professional in them when you haven't fired a single bullet... Well until today you guess.

Cruelty: *Chuckle* Perhaps, but I'm pretty sure you'll be using it relatively soon. After all, this is a once in several lifetime opportunity for me to do this! It's not every day someone of your caliber comes around, so I wanted to reminisce about something I used to enjoy before I became what I am!

That doesn't sound good... Wonder what horrible things he's got cooked up in that twisted mind of his? I could ask, but I'd rather not find out. You on the other hand were far more direct and braver than me in asking that question.

Y/N: What? You enjoy kicking puppies you fucking Psychopath?

The Mad Man's booming voice lets out a slight chuckle upon you labeling him as a Psychopath. This only fueled your desire to put a bullet in this sicko's brain.

Cruelty: *Amused Chuckle* I would call myself more of a Sociopath the a Psychopath. After all, I'm not an emotionless husk-like Most of my minions! No, I can process emotions just fine back then. In fact, I'm sure my past self would be absolutely horrified by what I've become! But why focus on things that will never happen? Instead, let's focus on the here and now! That's where the action is, no?

After his disembodied voice said this the next door opened up to the next room, which was another dull gray room, though it was notably bigger and had some sort of Machinery... What? You're a medical student, not an Engineer.

Cruelty: Speaking of action, I wonder if you'll even recognize what's up ahead!

What? Boring ass gray rooms that are sectioned off by automated steel doors and... Wait a minute... Is it what I think it is? You entered the room and looked around to see some crates as well. As soon as the door closed behind you, the door on the other side opened up as two strange pale creatures entered the room. What's odd is their face is totally featureless besides a... Cross... On... Their... Face... Oh my god.

Y/N(Internal): Did this jackass just send me to Madness Combat Universe!?

It's either that or he changed his realm heavily to resemble it. Honestly, you don't know which is worse in that case, that fact this bastard sent your ass to Nevada or that he made his own realm look like a Madness Combat animation for his own amusement. You're just gonna shake that thought out of your head as these faceless Grunts quickly started attacking you. Not surprisingly they don't exactly pose much of a threat if you know anything about Madness Combat as you easily dodged their flimsy punches and retaliated with your own. Why not talk them down you may ask? Come on, you've seen madness combat(I hope) you know these guys don't negotiate. They attack anyone they don't know or know shouldn't be there in sight.

*SMACK!!!* *WHAM!!!*

Aaaaand they're down already. Honestly, you expected a bit more of a fight from these two grunts, I know they're cannon fodder but they both went down in a single punch. However, that wasn't the end of them as five more came out of the door, this time with melee weapons. Most of them had improvised weapons, mainly pipes, and bottles, but one had a crude iron dagger. Three grunts with the Improvised weapons try to rush you.

*Whooosh!* *Snatch!* *CRUNCH!* *TWACK!*

Well, at least that grunt took two hits before going down, you snatched the pipe he was using as a club and smashed it over his head before coming back with a vicious upswing flipping him onto his back while making a nasty bruise. The Second grunt made the mistake of whiffing his swing completely and stumbling past you as you used this opening to quickly strangle him with the pipe. After you suffocate the guy you throw his body to the side and turn around to see a grunt that tried to take you by surprise while you were choking his buddy to death... I say tried because he tripped over one of his buddies' corpses and bashed his head on a crate. Guess these fellows are drunk, makes sense given the fact they had empty beer bottles. Speaking of which...

*SMASH!!!* *Shatter!*

The last grunt with an improvised weapon bashed the bottle on a nearby crate breaking it to make it far more lethal. Remembering that you have Throwing Knives you quickly threw one towards the grunt's face.

*SHINK!!!* *Thud!*

Damn, that knife went pretty deep into that grunt head. He fell onto the face with that knife in where his eye is supposed to be and now it's poking out the other side. Now the guy with the crude knife is the only one left... And he wisely runs back into the room he just exited out of. You quickly pursue as you swap the pipe to your offhand before drawing your Short Sword. Cuz you're expecting a clusterfuck of grunts in the room and maybe a few Agents, basically upgraded grunts. The moment you entered the room you're eyes widened a bit as the room was completely packed with grunts!

Y/N: Oh Fuck...

Oh Fuck indeed! Looks like a rave was going on in here! Needless to say, it's about to get really messy here in a minute as the grunts quickly begin approaching you with various melee weapons. You didn't have time to count them all so you went in guns blazing! You quickly began hacking and slashing through the room and inching your way across, when you're pipe broke you stabbed it into a grunt's face and grabbed an axe off the ground before continuing your rampage. About halfway through the room, two Agents showed up wondering what the hell was going on. Once they see you cutting your way through the horde of grunts they quickly prepared themselves for a fight as you cleaved a grunt in half with your blade and decapitated another with your axe. Soon you reached the other side as you stabbed the last grunt in the chest leaving a room full of bodies in your wake... Seriously the ground is absolutely soaked in blood after that. The two agents are what you would expect, two guys in a suit with sunglasses. One had a Bowie knife...

*Whooosh!* *SHINK!!!*

Aaaaand he's dead already after you chucked the bloody axe into his face, man you're a role here. The second had a Really long Machete, you know what I'm talking about if you watched Madness Combat. This agent swung at you a bit more accurately than the grunts as you had to block the strike. But that doesn't mean they're hard to kill, far from it.

*SMACK!!!* *Grab!* *WHAM!!!* *Slice!*

To explain the onomatopoeia above, you punched the agent in the face disorienting him before grabbing his weapon and headbutting him. Then you slice his head into three pieces by swinging both blades at the same time. Soon after that, you did that you entered another room and quickly stabbed another agent in the back with that long machete, which you promptly used as a meat shield from another Agent's pistol.

*BAM!BAM!BAM!*

You peeked over your very dead meat shield's shoulder to see five more agents, two with pistols and the rest with melee weapons, one of which was trying to charge at you. So you freed that machete by quickly throwing your meat shield at the agent charging you stunning him for a second.

*Slice!* *Swish!* *Swoosh!* *Slash!*

Which allowed you to use that machete's length to completely bisect both the dead meat shield and the agent at the same time. However, you were quickly rushed by the other two agents who swung at you with a crude-looking sword and a carbon knife. You got a small cut on your forearm, but you did diagonally cut one of them in half.

*BAM!* *Whoosh!* *SHINK!* *Slice!*

One of the agents tried to shoot you, but you managed to dodge the shot and threw the Machete in retaliation. Honestly, you didn't expect it to hit, but you nailed that Agent's head and pinned him to the wall! However, you didn't let that lucky shot distract you from decapitating the last melee agent.

*BAM!BAM!BAM!BAM!* *Flick!* *Bang!*

The last agent tried to shoot you with rapid-fire shots, but you couldn't get closer while you had to dodge so you pulled out the revolver that was given to you and quickly domed the last agent. You're planning to save at least One bullet to put that Sick Freak down with the weapon that he gave you. Kinda because you felt like it would be ironic, but also because you wanted to punish this madman's hubris. Maybe that's what he's counting on, but you were gonna try it anyway. Whatever the case may be, a Semi-Auto pistol would be better than a revolver so you holstered the revolver in your pants, mainly because you didn't have a holster yet. The operative word being Yet here as you are sure there is some sort of locker around here that has one.

Y/N(Internal): Let's see, it's a Glock 17 and he only fired one shot... So it should have sixteen shots left since he only fired once.

You mentally stated hoping that the agent had a fully loaded magazine when he shot at you. Whatever the case may be, you proceed toward the next room which appears to be a locker room of sorts. Thankfully no enemies were there and one of the lockers was wide open. As you looked around to see if there weren't any traps or anything, you noticed a few odd-looking posters. One of them asked a rather odd question... "Why do Navadians have arms and legs now!?!?!?" and "Where is Here? Here is Nowhere or Hell?". But one that particularly interested you was just a Poster of some sort of cookie with a bit of jam in the center of it. It looked a bit out of place since it was so colorful compared to the dull grays and deep reds. It was a Light Brown hue with a dab of Bright Red in the center. Your guess is that it's a Jam Filled Butter Cookie, you actually had some of these before along with Friskie and they were pretty tasty. Friskie in particular absolutely loved them if you recall correctly. You had to learn how to make them because the last time Friskie tried her hand at cooking, she nearly burnt the dorm down with a grease fire.

Y/N(Internal): That's a little... Strange.

You took a mental note of that and examined the open locker. You immediately spot a few things. One was a Belt and... An oddly western-themed holster.

I don't own any of these things in the image

Y/N: What the fuck is this jackass trying to do? Make me look like a Cowboy? *Mutters* Him and that other Asshole are ruining Cowboys for me...

The only reason you're objecting to this is because the guy giving this to you is an Evil Person who likes torturing kids... However, that wasn't all that was in the locker. There were those Jam Filled Butter Cookies and a note. There was also another thing, but as we say, better save the best part for last... Also slightly concerning, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Note: If you're reading this, then you are in a very bad place right now. I wish I could do more for you, but this is all I can do for you. Please, I beg you be kind to him. I know he's too far gone, but if you must do this... Then make it quick. He shouldn't have to suffer like this any more than he already has...

There was a cute green heart at the bottom corner of the page. You wonder who this was seeing as this person felt a lot more Kinder than the guy who loves torture. You eat the cookies seeing as there were only five of them and they were quite small. After you do so you feel invigorated as the pain from that cut earlier faded away while a warm fuzzy feeling fills your body. You check the cut on your arm to see that it has fully healed!

Y/N: W-woah... Those are some awesome cookies.

You stated that you felt like a million bucks after eating those delicious treats! Now for the last thing that is both Awesome and Mildly concerning. A fully loaded Combat Shotgun with yet another note.

Note: Show me what you can Really do. - Twisted Justice.

Yeah, that asshole Twisted Justice just somehow gave you a damn Benelli M4 and pretty much dared you to use it, hell he even Ghost loaded the damn thing. As if trying to kill You and Friskie just to see you in action wasn't enough, this Douche Canoe had the gall to dare you to do something you're not exactly fond of doing despite being alarmingly good at it... Which is Murder, Murder, Murder, with a side of Murder. Obviously, you weren't too happy, but you aren't gonna look a gift horse in the mouth right now.

Y/N: *Sigh* Guess it's time to make a mess...

You stated while getting the belt and holster on and somehow snuggly fit the Snubnose Revolver into said holster. Soon after you grabbed the Shotgun which had a sling on it allowing you to store it on your back. The plan was to use that pistol you grabbed in the last room in tandem with your short sword and wreck shop to the best of your ability before swapping to the shotgun. I'm pretty sure you know what happens after that.

Y/N: Alright... Everything seems to be in order. Time to rock and roll.

You soon head over to the door. Once you mentally prepared yourself for what you're about to do, you went through the door and immediately saw about fourteen different enemies. Five Engineers, Eight Agents, and One Soldat. Looks like things jumped up in difficulty a bit from here as you were expecting only a few engineers. You certainly didn't expect a Soldat to arrive in the third room... Well technically fourth, but that last room didn't count since it didn't have enemies, just supplies and some cookies. *Clear's Throat* Anyways...

*SLICE!SLASH!* *BAM!BAM!BAM!* *Grab!* *Crunch!*

You opened up this fight with a few good slashes immediately taking out two agents, then shooting two more before trying to take a pot shot at the Soldat. The Soldat dodged it and quickly pulled out his pistol along with a bowie knife as you grabbed another Agent and swiftly twisted his head 180 degrees.

*BAM!BAM!BAM!* *Swoosh!* *Slash!* *SMACK!!!*

The Soldat shot at you while advancing towards you as what was left of the Agents backed up. You dodged the shots as the Soldat closed the gap and tried to swing at you with his knife, however, yet again you dodged his attacks and promptly pistol-whipped his skull. After you did that the Soldat was stunned for a moment, but before you could shoot him in the head while you had the chance an Engineer started laying covering fire while the three last remaining Agents tried to rush you down.

*SLASH!SLICE!* *BAM!BAM!*

Tried being the operative word here as you cut one in half, decapitated another, and shot the other right in the face. You even took a potshot at one of the Engineers hitting the hand of the guy who provided covering fire for the Soldat. This caused him to drop his Uzi as two Engineers quickly joined the fray with a Normal-sized Machete and a Wrench.

*BAM!BAM!* *Click!*

Fuck, the magazine was already empty! What!? Did they only have enough pay to buy a few bullets!? *Sigh* At least you took out the two Engineers before the Soldat finally got his bearings as the three Engineers came down to have some fun. Little did they know, you're getting a little tired of this back-and-forth game.

*Whooosh!* *SMACK!* *Swap!* *BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!*

You quickly threw the pistol at the nearest Engineer and pulled out your shotgun. You then quickly took out the Engineers with those three shots, hell one of their heads exploded spattering that yellow blood, which I will forever think is watery mustard, all over his buddies before they got a bunch of lead lodged into their heads as well, only without exploding like a ripe melon. The Soldat was about to charge towards you... But you bet him to the punch.

*SLAM!!!* *SMACK!* *BAM!BAM!BAM!* *CRUNCH!!!*

You quickly pinned him to a nearby wall and punched him square in the... Well, I was gonna say Jaw, but this guy has a gray bean for a face so we'll go with the face for now. The Soldat didn't go down without a fight though as he tried to shoot you in the head as you pinned him to the wall with your shotgun. You quickly ducked down and swiftly crushed the dude's throat... And apparently, his spine is two as he quickly falls limp after that. Wasting no time you stepped to the side and let the Soldat's body drop as you entered the next room, which was a hallway. You see five Victims of varying skill levels...

*BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!"

Correction, there were now four headless corpses and one lone Agent desperately trying to call an elevator by repeatedly pressing the button. You took your time and reloaded your shotgun seeing as the elevator was at the top floor and pretty much stopping on every floor. Needless to say, you're expecting some company as you topped off and ghost-load your shotgun, you grabbed a nearby knife from one of the corpses while continuing to approach the poor Agent who was still tapping that button for dear life.

*TAP!TAP!TAP!TAP!TAP!TAP!TAP!* *SHINK!!!*

And you walked up and stabbed the poor guy in the back of the head. Poor guy, you kinda feel bad for him... Oh well, he would have probably tried to shoot you in the back anyway if you let him live.

*DING!*

Welp, no time for feeling bad here, you got more tangos in coming! You quickly aimed your shotgun at the elevator as the door opened up and started blastin'!

*BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!*

Well, that was pretty damn effective as a bunch of Agents met their end rather quickly... However, not all the passengers were killed as a Huge mother fucker looking like Frankenstein's long-lost cousin stepped out... And he didn't seem too happy as you glanced down at the slight flesh wound that buckshot caused, though it seemed he was madder about his suit being damaged than anything else.

GOL3M: NOT NICE!

*SMACK!!!* *SMASH!!!* *SLAM!!!*

*Cough! Cough!* Oh fuck! Even I felt that... I'm not gonna sugar coat that, you got punched in the gut so hard you smashed into the previous room taking the door with you as you slammed into the other door.

Y/N: *COUGH!COUGH!* Aw fuck...

After you coughed up a bit of blood after having your guts thoroughly tenderized by another man's fist, you looked down to see that your shotgun got a fisting of a lifetime as it was now permanently bent in half upon your lap. As a side note, I'm not letting Aster write again. You take a moment to collect your bearings as you get up from the wreckage of the two doors as you stumble onto your feet. Soon the GOL3M entered the room and received orders from his earpiece.

GOL3M: IT WILL BE DONE.

After the big man said that you immediately knew it was a kill order on ya. How did you know that? Come on, you should already know that Madness Combat doesn't hold back... That and everyone in this building(Besides that one Agent that was pissing his pants at the elevator) is trying to kill you. It's safe to say that this is no different.

*SMASH!!!* *Whoosh!* *SLASH!!!*

GOL3M: OOOOOOOOW!!!

The GOL3M tried to punch you once, however, you dodged as its fist crushed the door! Then you took this opportunity to slash the massive guy's side which as you can see, did not feel too great to the big guy. He quickly swung his mighty fist around while angrily roaring at you! You quickly duck under and stabbed him in the chest! However, this louged the blade in place making it difficult to pull out!

*SMACK!!!* *SLAM!!!*

Y/N: AHHHHH!!! FUCK!

The GOL3M quickly took that advantage and pretty bitch slapped you across the room again... Which hurt a lot obviously. Honestly, you're amazed none of your bones are broken at this point. Though your origins are Definitely bruised to hell and back as your entire body ached with pain. I mean some should probably be ruptured by now, but you currently aren't internally bleeding so that's a good sign. The GOL3M's fist was a bit stuck in the tangled mass of metal that was once two doors and as he attempted to pray his fist loose you stopped the Uzi you shot out of the engineer's hand. Now you know this won't outright kill him, but it'll allow you to create an opening to gravely wound him. Which you Hope is enough to take him out.

Y/N: *Cough!* Here goes nothin'...

As the GOL3M reached you he clasped his hands together and attempted to crush you with a Double Axe Handle strike. While his hands were raised high into the air you pulled out one of your throwing knives and charged it to explode, once the big guy began to bring his clasped fists down you quickly rolled out of the way and picked up the Uzi. You quickly took aim at his face where his eyes were supposed to be and pulled the trigger.

*BAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAM!*

GOL3M: GRRRRR!!! HA-!

*SHINK!*

As you predicted the big guy quickly protected his face with one of his hands. When he growled and tried to speak while raising his other fist to wildly swing at you, you threw the charged throwing knife into the big guy's throat. Now while a knife in the throat would definitely make any normal person quiet for a while, the GOL3M looked more confused than in anything else.

GOL3M: HU-?

*KA-BOOM!* *SPLATTER!!!*

Ok Now he quickly grabbed his throat which had a gaping hole in it. That and his Jaw was completely Gone as the explosion definitely turned it to splinters. How do you know this? While aside from being a medical professional in training, you felt a piece of his tooth bounce off your shoulder as if someone shot you with a B.B. gun. You walked over and wrenched your blade out from his chest as the big guy continued to clutch his throat.

GOL3M: Gu.... Auh... *Death Sigh*

*THUD!*

After the massive mountain of muscle finely dies you let out a sigh of relief as you wiped his own blood on his tuxedo before walking off.

Y/N: *Pant...* *Pant...* Sweet baby Jesus that was difficult... *Pant...* *Pant...* *Chuckles* God help me if I run into an armored one...

You stated as you walked back into the hallway and got into the elevator after stepping over a few corpses. After doing that you checked to see if there was any ammo left in the Uzi... Which there wasn't so you just threw that back into the hall in slight frustration as you pulled out the .38 Revolver from its oversized holster. As you examine the buttons to see that there were about four three floors and a rooftop to this building. Theirs a Basement, the First Floor which you're on right now, a Second Floor, and the Roof Top... That last one had a bunch of signs written in blood saying "Press Me, Doofus!" As well as a bunch of arrows. The Basement Button was broken so you really only had two options. Out of sheer spite, you press the button to the second floor.

Y/N: *Mutter's* Fuck this asshole's script, I'm going my own way.

*DING!*

You leaned over to the opening to see... Oh my fucking god. There was a room entirely filled with More of those Big mother fuckers in what looks like a lounge room... And they were all wearing fucking armor! When they heard the elevator open up they slowly looked towards you and stared at you for a solid minute. After another moment of awkward silence, you logically sensed that this was definitely done on purpose to railroad to the roof... So you begrudgingly press the button to the roof.

Y/N: Sorry... *Clear's throat* Wrong Floor...

Honestly, you were more annoyed than pissed off or fearful here. It's mainly the fact you wanted to try and do something else, but the evil son of a bitch that's currently ruling over this realm pretty pile drove the universe's spine to get you to do what he wants... At least that's how it feels anyway as you're definitely sure a bunch of armored GOL3Ms can be in one place, but that would imply-... *Sigh* Never mind, I'm getting off track again. You reach the roof top and Oh Boy you weren't expecting to be on a floating building!

Y/N: What the hell?

I mean it's par for the course in Madness Combat, but something about these buildings just seems Off to you. Like there was one that's completely upside down along with the area around it, another that was Literally made of flesh and bone, one that was made completely out of razor-sharp spines, and one that uh... Looked like a great hotdog. All of which are hoving in a Red Void with some sort of static filter. It honestly looked like an A.I was told to depict Hell in the most uncanny way possible. You see a ledge with another plate of cookies next to it, which you eagerly eat seeing as you felt like crap after being used as a GOL3M's punching bag either.

Y/N: *Sigh* Thank god... Now let's see what... Oh...

You see a sign with the words written in blood "Jump!" With a smiley face next to it... What a way to be Soooooo Shuttle... But as you turned around to attempt to get to the basement of the building, you saw the Elevator was in use. When the door opened Three Armored GOL3M'S stepped out and began to advance towards you with melee weapons in their hands. Needless to say, you quickly began running in the other direction nearing the edge once more.

Y/N: I AM SO GONNA FUCKIN DOME THAT DERANGED ASSHAT WHEN I FIND HIM!!!

Yeah, I'd be pissed too if someone did that to me. Though I'd be pissed in general seeing as the whole situation is an active risk to your life... *Clear's Throat* I'm gonna stop myself before I get off track again. You quickly leaped off the building and down into the red void below, however, it seems the Armored GOL3Ms were a little short on brain cells that day as they quickly leaped off after you! Either that or they're pretty damn dedicated to their jobs. Honestly, it can go either way with GOL3Ms. Though I'm gonna go with the former sense uh...

GOL3M: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

*Whoooosh!*

They just fell right past you without even getting close. I guess they forgot they weighed close to a hundred tons with all that armor on them. Soon his buddies fell past you as well as they disappeared into the red void, yet when you passed where they disappeared you kept on falling.

Y/N: Well, this isn't gonna be pleasant.

You stated as you fell past more of those buildings and some floating platforms. On one of these platforms, you see a few figures off in the distance fighting more enemies. One of them was wearing a Black Trench Coat while the other was wearing some type of Blue Suit. It was hard to make out since they were pretty far away, but the guy in the trench coat was dealing with something with a sword and shield while the guy in the suit was dealing with... Tactical Ninjas?

Y/N: What is going on over there?

Just after you asked that question you suddenly stopped mid-air and began to float as if some otherworldly force stopped your descent. Suddenly and without warning the void and everything around seemingly glitched as it turned to static for a split second! After that though, you found yourself in a dark laboratory of some sort. You glanced around in the darkness looking for a light source and see a flashlight being illuminated by a screen full of static. Not wanting to stub your toe every which way just trying to move around you walked over and took the flashlight. Just as you did so, a video played on the screen which was seemingly made by a scientist, looking at his name tag his name was Eric.

Eric(Video): Day 1 of testing the new Sleep Walker tech provided to us by our mysterious benefactors. I will be Logging our progress and since the top brass can't do anything about it, I'll also be giving my thoughts about it going forward. *Sighed as he adjusted his glass* We are currently just trying to get the damn thing to work at the moment as we have to decipher some old files, some of which are totally corrupted or just lost to time. This was Way back when Navadia was still its own separate place, hell even the Other Place and the race formerly known as Employers was still around. But that was before the Nowhere became the Somewhere and us Gen 6 Navadian's quite Literally raised from the ashes of our previous versions *Chuckles* I still find it funny that our ancestors didn't even have arms or legs back then. Though I'm not sure I really believe all of it in all honesty... I mean seriously, you expect me to believe that all of this started with a giant marshmallow and a cannon? *Scoff* Yeah right... End of log.

Wait Gen 6 Navadians? You recall something about robots being Gen 5 Navadians and their purpose was to replace the Gen 3 Navadians, also known as GOL3M's. So what's another generation of Navadians doing here and what happened to the Gen 2 and 4 Navadians? Hmm... This guy did mention that they came from the ashes of their Previous Versions... Shot in the dark, but maybe something happened to the world of madness that caused some sort of extinction event.

Y/N: Huh... Interesting.

You quickly move on to the next room and shine the light around to see a bunch of run-down lab equipment... And gaint people-sized vats. There wasn't a static screen to provide some handy exposition so you headed to the next room. Something you've noticed about the rooms are eerily quiet, like you were exploring an abandoned place. Soon you entered some sort of observation room looking into an arena of sorts. You see a static screen and as you approach another video starts to play.

Eric(Video): *Groan of annoyance* Day 7. We got the Sleep Walker tech to work but we were too hasty with our approach. We ended up making our subjects something called Abominations. Apparently, our predecessors encountered the same problem as we reviewed what little flies we could recover. Someone named Jebediah Christoff. He was trying to use this program to counter something called Plan Zed which is literally making Zombies. I don't know how imprinting experiences to one's S3LF would help with the situation they had before, but it was green-lit anyway. Probably for the same reason we're using it now, which is to improve our existing troops' battle prowess and hasten training through imprinting another's experience into them. Either way, we have to tweak our approach a bit here with the Sleep Walker tech. On a side note, we've also replicated the process of making GOL3Ms, which was a pain to do since we needed to wing it with the arms and legs. We're calling them GIAN7s since they're Gen 7 Navadians. They've been really helpful around the cargo bay as they have a similar purpose to GOL3Ms, but they've been enhanced with a denser bone structure to support their massive weight and powerful strength. They also make for great bodyguards as one of them fixed our Abomination problem really fast using his monstrous strength. Man, I'm glad they have such a nice temperament because they can be terrifying when they're pissed... End of log.

Ah so me calling them GOL3M's before was incorrect... Good to know. Also, that would explain why that first GIAN7 hit with the force of a speeding truck and why you're blade got stuck in its chest. You entered the Arena spot as the door was practically ripped open by something Big. Here's hoping that something isn't around anymore. You look around to see it was a large rectangular room with two barrels. There were also four doors. Most were filled with rubble or blocked off by makeshift barricades. On top of this, there was a LOT of dry blood here and one of the barricaded doors was bashed open. Judging by the splatter pattern of the blood it would seem a horde or something ripped a guy to pieces.

Y/N: It Must have been someone's last stand before getting torn to shreds.

After making that astute observation you head towards the broken-down barricade. It was at that moment you realized you hadn't holstered your revolver yet, but given the eerie circumstances that was probably a good thing. You soon enter another room which appeared to be a waiting room of sorts... It didn't exactly look comfortable as the only thing to sit on was a bunch of iron slabs hanging from the wall. Starring down the room towards the next room sends a chill down your spine as you see nothing but darkness in the doorway. Ever since you arrived here it felt like you were being watched... And not by a crazed and self-proclaimed Sociopath. No, this presence felt like it wanted to show you something... Whatever it was, it felt cold and a little sinister. You quickly left the room and entered some sort of sign-in station. A sign reads, "Beat a guy up and earn money!". Judging by the Sleep Walker experiments here it was probably done to make a blueprint for it or something. Since there wasn't another screen to watch you-.

*Scraaaaaaape...*

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!?!? I mean... *Fake Cough!* Y-you heard a noise that sounded like claws scrapping concrete on the other side of the room. Quickly turning around you see... N-nothing? Well, there were HUGE claw marks on the door you were looking at. Before you could fully grasp what happened the door behind you slammed shut and the computer on the front desk suddenly turned on.

Y/N: Oh lovely... How Thoughtful of whatever the hell is here to announce its presence...

You stated clearly as spoked as I was when that scrapping sound made me jump. So you hopped over the desk and soon enough another video played.

Eric(Video): Day 19. Our theory worked. While our predecessors spread the imprinting process across multiple months, we've managed to shorten that to about a week by inducing a coma in the subject while running the Sleep Walker device. We managed to make the process take longer within the subject's mind, that way they can digest the information more easily and aren't absolutely overwhelmed by the rapid influx of data. There were still problems of course, but nothing we can't iron out with a couple more trials. After this, our team is being reassigned to work on a secret project. Whatever it is, it has our foreign friends very interested... While I was warned about voicing my opinions about them I feel the need to express my feelings on them regardless as they're too potent to at least document them. I'm gonna be honest, they freak me out a bit. Upon seeing them the first time my heart skipped a beat upon seeing their faces. They don't have that cross like we have and they have features that make my skin crawl. On top of that, their presence is just... Off, like they're not supposed to be here. *Sigh* But despite that, they pay us to do our jobs so I'll just have to get used to it seeing as they took a copy of our data. Apparently they're trying to adapt the technology to something called a D.D., which I am told stands for Dingo Dogs. But other than that, I have no clue what they're doing with it. End of log.

Something tells you that this guy may have encountered a Human... Or whatever Justice and Cruelty are. But you're not too sure which they met, still, it seems the story isn't done yet as the door with the claw marks slowly opens. While you really didn't want to go through that door, there wasn't anywhere else to go so you walked over and entered it. Once you did the door behind you slammed shut causing you to jump a bit and drop your flashlight. It rolled toward the center of the room and shined upon a lone TV sitting on the edge of the room. You hesitantly walked over and picked up your only source of illumination as the TV turned on playing the next video.

Eric: *Sigh* Day 26. Or work on the substance known as Determination has been... Straining. Our last test made a creature I don't wanna begin to explain. But... I don't get paid until I do so. *Signs as he adjusted his glasses* When we injected the substance into a test subject it made something horrible. The subject began to have a seizure which had been fatal. Wasting a life like that rubs me the wrong way in my personal opinion, even if they're supposedly death row convicts. I have my doubts about that, but saying something to the guards seems to get you... Removed without warning. *Clear's Throat* Soon after the subject expired, his skin began to blacken and crack as if it were made of porcelain turning into a creature unlike we've ever seen before. It was incredibly hostile and even broke out of containment. It killed a few scientists, Guards, and even a GIAN7 before escaping. Despite this, the Brass wanted the experiments to continue. Next week we're supposed to inject the Gen 1 Navadian that were found comatose on one of our expositions into the Somewhere with the same substance. I seriously hope we're getting close to a breakthrough here, morale is low and with each passing day, one of my friends goes missing. I'm scared that one day that missing person will be me at some point. End of log.

Determination? Are they just naming a substance after that or something? Whatever it is, I don't think it's a good thing seeing as it's making monsters... Well Actual Monsters. Not the ones living in the underground, of course, they seem like people you can reason with. But these things are something you're gonna have to keep your eye out for as you continue into another room... With a staircase leading down into complete darkness.

Y/N: Oh I'm not gonna like this...

You stated to nobody, but hearing yourself say that hopefully somehow reinforces your nerves or something... You're honestly doing random stuff because you're wigged out here. Regardless of what your entire body is telling you at the moment, you venture down into the dark staircase... Which was pretty long as you were probably descending for like twenty minutes before reaching the bottom. Which leads to a door with chains on it and a big "Keep Out!" sign... That's not ominous at all.

Y/N: Well there's nothing here... Guess I'll-.

*SCRAAAAAPE!!!*

Before you could continue the door was suddenly ripped open along with the chains leading into a pitch back room. You waited for a solid moment for something to happen... Yet nothing came.

Y/N: *Nervous Laughter* Great... Now I definitely know I'm being led to my doom... *More Nervous Laughter* Fuck my life...

Yeah and after all this, you gotta shake off a murderous fish lady... Honestly, you'd probably prefer that right now seeing as she was easy to dodge and counter so far compared to a fuckin GIAN7. But as you wonder what Undyne looks like under that armor, you look around and see you are in some sort of observation room... And the room it was observing was MASSIVE... God you hope a Mag Agent isn't in there. Soon after that thought another screen turned on showing static for a moment before a video began playing.

Eric(Video): *Sigh of Unease* What is the Brass thinking here after that Gen 1 Navadian disaster!? Sure he didn't turn into a fuckin monster, but he certainly turned into something pretty damn unsettling after we injected that substance into him! From what the Brass told me, he turned into a Human-based Mage. The fuck is a Human!? Do they all look like that!? How did Determination change a Gen 1 Navadian into whatever a Human is!? And what does his being a Mage mean? He seemed to fuckin kill out guards without issues using a goddamn pistol and break out without breaking much of a sweat! I didn't see him cast any damn Fire Ball! *Relenting Sigh* Whatever, let's just get this over with... Day 32. We injected that nightmare substance into a Mag Agent and since we're fully expecting this to go Absoutly sideways, we put him in a large room Far Away from any personnel. We'll be injecting the substance into him remotely by an old Gen 5 Navadian we managed to fix up. Commending the test now... Thomas, you got the go-ahead.

You watched as someone gave off-screen thumbs up to Eric before the test began. So far nothing seems to be happening, but then again you can't really see what they're seeing.

Eric(Video): Everything seems to be going well so far. The subject hasn't changed or hasn't gotten a seizure... Wait... Hold on... It seems like the subject is... Melting?

Soon after he said that you heard something large scream in pain within the background audio of the Video. Eric gave a bit of a disgusted face as he watched the off-screen event unfold... Soon disgust turned to horror as he sees something.

Eric(Video): What the hell is coming out of him!? *Grunt of Desperation* Shit! Shit! Shit! They're tearing through the walls!

He then pulled something on the terminal and you see him get up while other scientists run out of the room. An alarm quickly started to blare across the whole facility.

Eric(Video): Everyone! Get out now! Before-!

*SHINK!!!*

Eric was seemingly stabbed by something invisible with claws and soon the thing uncloaked to reveal a tall lengthy skeleton with large claws and black bones. You see the bottom half of its jaw open up wide to eat Eric's corpse before the video cuts out... Now you're very fucking worried seeing as now with the context that those skeletons can turn invisible and have definitely overrun the place by now. You count on the fact strange shit has been happening and that these things Eat people... There is a high likelihood that these things have been stalking you all throughout the abandoned facility and leading you into a trap.

Y/N: Fuck...

You quickly glanced up to see a door in the chamber which didn't seem to belong in a run-down dump like this that was illuminated by one light source. Meaning that you're gonna have to go into the belly of the beast to get out.

Y/N: Double Fuck... *Trailing Sigh* Here's hoping my ass comes along for the ride...

Yeah if only you were that lucky. With these man-eating bone wraiths from hell, you're pretty sure that fucking asshole did this on purpose. You are really gonna enjoy putting a bullet in that S.O.B. when you find him! Because dealing with Man Eating Bone Wraiths was Not on your list of things to do today... Among other things, but that's back when you were getting Your bones jumped and not having bones jump at you. For obvious reasons, those are two Very different things. You entered the room by stepping onto some sort of lift and pressing a button. As it slowly lowered down you noticed tall thin figures skittering around the walls of this place like insects scurrying off to hide. While the ruse is up at this point, it's still creepy that they're waiting for something... But for what? No that's the question you... Might not want answered in all fairness. But regardless of your wishes, you soon find out why they were waiting for you to step off the lift and shined your flashlight at the center of the room. There you see something rather revolting... It was a large mound of putrid black flesh which made you finally take notice of the sicking stench of death permeating throughout the room.

Y/N: *Cough!* Aw fuck! That's nasty...

Definitely gonna need to spray some Febreze on your clothes after this... However, that's not the worst of your problems as the black mass started pulsing as you heard tearing sounds emanating from the massive heap. You attempt to make your way to the door, however, your path is blocked by those Bone Wraiths.

Y/N: Oh great, you boney bastards are gonna make me watch... How Lovey...

You were definitely on point there isn't as the black mass of stinking flesh burst open as a massive claw reached out. A creature with a mouth full of jagged teeth and a singular closed eye pulled itself out of the disgusting mass of flesh. It stopped for a brief moment and slowly turned its head towards you before it opened its singular eye to reveal it was completely black, with the sole exception of a single red pupil. It soon licked its teeth as if it was looking at its next meal.

Y/N: Yeah no, fuck this!

Uh-huh, this place can through go to hell. If it's already hell, then it can go to Super Hell. Thinking quickly you dodged its lunge and aimed your revolver at one of the skeleton's skulls.

*Bang!* *Shatter!* *Whooosh!*

Its head quickly shattered into pieces as if it were made of porcelain. While it did not kill it unfortunately as its head began to piece itself back together, it did stun it allowing you to escape and book it toward the door! Soon more of those Bone Wraiths arrived to try and cut you off. However, you quickly slide under one of their legs and roll-out of another reach before smashing another's head with your flashlight.

*SMASH!!!* *Shatter!*

Unfortunately, that broke said flashlight as it wasn't exactly built to double as a club. Seriously some of those flashlights hurt! Probably because they are made of metal and not plastic. But that sacrifice wasn't in vain as you were able to evade another Bone Wraiths grasp before successful running to the door. Just as you reached it an Agent opened the door and quickly pulled out a 1911 to try and shoot you.

*BAM!* *SMACK!* *Snatch!* *Grab!* *Whoosh!*

Agent: OH GOD NO!!!

*Crunch!* *Much!* *Riiiiiiip!!!* *Squelch!*

Oh, that's disgusting... To start off you dodged the Agent's shot, pistol whipped him with the revolver, snatched his gun, and threw him into the room you were just in. The Bone Wraiths immediately began Eating the Agent as soon as he landed there. Made you wonder why they didn't eat you, but you can make an educated guess and say they were trying to feed you to that weird cycloptic monster. For what though? No time to worry about that as you noticed that the door was jammed and more Bone Wraiths are started to swarm into that big ass room.

Y/N: Yep, time to leave!

Without missing a beat you quickly run into the next room and encounter more Agents and a few Engineers all having a drink in what looks like a bar. As the door shut behind you, something made a massive dent in it spooking everyone in the room a bit, but you.

*BAM!BAM!*

Taking this opportunity you took out two agents before they realized what was going on, once they did they quickly got their guns out and attempted to retaliate as you hopped over the bar.

*BAM!BAM!BAM!BAM!BAM!* *Brrrrratatatatatatatata!* *Brrrratatatatatatata!*

*SMASH!SMASH!*

As glass flew everywhere, the Agents and Engineers failed to notice that the door you just entered through was still being broken down by Bone Wraiths. You looked around to see if there was anything that could help you and saw a gun tapped to the underside of the bar... And boy you're really starting to sense a theme here.

Art/Model by Morgan Acosta

Y/N: *Sigh* At least it's something that could be under a bar counter.

You stated as you holstered the snub revolver and sat the 1911 down for a moment to get this 45-70 Lever action a spin. But before you could do that, you heard the door finally break as you heard one of the Bone Wraiths entering the room.

Agent: The Hell is that!?

*SHINK!!!* *Crunch!*

Welp looks like that guy's head was beaten off from the sounds of it. As that happened you got the Lever action free from its duck-tap bindings as soon as the gunshots started again.

Engineer: Shit! It's a man-eater! Shoot it down!

*Brrrrrratatatatatatata!* *BAM!BAM!BAM!BAM!* *SHINK!* *SLASH!* *SLICE!* *CHOMP!* *MUNCH!* *CRUNCH!*

You quickly peeked over the counter to see that two more Bone Wraiths had joined the fray. Seeing a door leading into the back room just by the bar, you picked up the 1911 and quietly made your exit in the chaos. After entering the back room you see a corpse, that of the bartender. It seemed this guy pissed off the Agents somehow and got a raw deal as the Bartender appeared to have been tortured before they put a bullet in his head.

Y/N: Well Karma may be a bitch, but she has a great sense of Irony.

Soon after you said this you heard something scratching at the door you just entered from. You quickly looked around to see a few things to nab before leaving the building through the back door. Most of it was cowboy-themed, but from the look of the owner, it was clear that he just liked the Western look. Aka it wasn't Cruelty's doing This time... You hope anyway.

I don't own anything in this picture

If you're wondering what that is, that's a lever action holster. Which typically is on the back by using a bandoleer or sling. Anyway back to the story!

You quickly put the Ammo Belt on over your normal belt and the Lever Action Rifle holster on your back with a sling. After that, you put the .45-70 ammo into the ammo belt. Honestly, all you're missing is a vest, cowboy hat, and some western-style boots to complete the look at this point, but hey at least you're armed to the teeth right now. However just as you were about to leave through the back door it was blocked off by chains and that overworldly voice returned much to your chagrin...

Cruelty: *Wicked Chuckle* Oh you're not going anywhere just yet~. I Need to see what happens next!

You gritted you're teeth as the scrapping door sounds turning into something trying to smash through said door. You leveled your rifle towards the door before letting your displeasure with Cruelty's actions known.

Y/N: When I find you, I am gonna put a bullet in you, you sick fuck!

The otherworldly voice just laughed as the door started to give way. Soon you can see the eye of that flesh monster you witnessed bursting out of that massive pile of flesh that reeked of decay and death. The creature then ripped the door off and threw it to the side as it entered into the room

Y/N(Internal): Ok... I only got one shot at this... I better make it count.

You steady your aim and keep it trained on the creature's eye. It soon slowly crouched down and acted as if it was preparing for a lunging attack. You held your breath to steady your am further as you cleared your mind. The creature's eye began to slowly dilate until it appeared to be nothing but a black void. A tense moment passed as you both remained ready to attack at any moment. As this went on a drop from a leaky pipe began to form, and everything seemed to slow down as the droplet fell down towards a full bucket below. All while the both of you continued to stare at each other with killing intent.

*Bloop!*

???: Š̸̤̜̆̈́C̴̡̮̥̞͊R̸̨̗̱̞̃́E̶̙͗̿͛Ĕ̷̛̖̿Ḙ̸̗̺̼̄͝E̶̳̤̅̇È̴̠͎̖̤́̋̚Ḙ̴̫̓͌̆͝E̵̟̼͊̂̉͂!̴̮͚̃̋͝!̶̜̭̊!̵̡̉!̸̨͍͈̓

*Click!* *Glint!* *BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!*

After the droplet impacted the water bucket, the creature leaped at you with its jaw opened wide and claws outstretched. As you pulled the trigger, a White glint came from your right eye and a bright white flash soon exited the muzzle of your gun. The bullet seemingly amplified by an unknown power completely obliterated the beast as soon as it made contact with the bullet. It was as if it were hit by a rail gun as its entire biomass was completely Atomized into nothing. Not only that, the Bone Wraiths behind it were completely destroyed as well. The sheer force of the projectiles not only shattered them into pieces, it literally burned their shards into nothing but dust that blew away as soon as the draft picked them up. Why was there a draft? Well, there was a Gaint Hole on the other side of the building. As you lower your gun taken aback at just how powerful that shot was, Cruelty begins laughing maniacally.

Cruelty: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! THAT IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!!! Finally! A show of true POWER!!! No wonder why my cohorts are fascinated with you! Your entire being is just Brimming with so much power just waiting to be unleashed at a moment's notice! All we have to do is give you a little nudge. Perhaps that girl you came with? Or perhaps that Goat Lady? Oh, I bet her scream would be SOOOOOO DELIGHTFUL!!!

Oh, that struck a nerve with you as you looked visibly angered by the madman's words. Actually, Anger doesn't cut it here, you were fuckin Livid.

Y/N: You better stay away from them or I'll rip your goddamn heart out.

*Suprised Whistle* Yeah that's definitely a terrifying thing to hear. You were so absolutely mad, but not a frothing-at-the-mouth berserker mad. You were On A Mission mad as you focused and honed your anger to a razor-sharp edge... Something that Cruelty is oddly pleased with.

Cruelty: Oh! And you have such a strong presence when you get all mad! *Gleeful Chuckle* Oh I can't wait to meet you and BREAK THAT STONG WILL OF YOURS!!!

Soon the chains barricading the back door receded and the door opened to what looked like a city. Cruelty chuckled before saying his farewells for now.

Cruelty: *A Concerning amount of Chuckling* Ohoho! I need to calm myself down! You can explore if you wish, but to return back to the Underground, YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH ME!!! *Slight Chuckle* See you soon, Cowboy~.

Ugh... He is definitely making it weird now. You soon exit the building to see a rather crappy city all things considered. There were gangs, some abandoned buildings, and some Drunks getting the shit kicked out of them by Bikers after they pushed their bikes over by bumping into them... Yep, you were definitely in Navadia.

Y/N: What a shit hole...

*Tap!Tap!*

You quickly turned around ready to deck someone in the face as you were still on high alert and they tapped you on the shoulder without warning, but you stopped once you realized it was Pari. She quickly raised her hands a bit in an attempt to calm you down.

Pari: Woah! Calm down! It's just me.

The Bunny Gal had some small wounds on her person. All were grazes and scrapes from some tough fights. You let out a sigh as you lowered your fists and unclenched them.

Y/N: Christ Pari! I nearly punched you! What happened? Do you get sent to Battle Navadian too?

The Bunny Gal tilted her head a bit as she had no idea what Navadians were, but she could hazard a guess as to what you meant.

Pari: Yes? You mean these people with blank faces aside from the crosses on them right?

Ah, she doesn't know about Madness Combat. Fair enough honestly, she doesn't seem like the type of person to be into that stuff. She probably has enough combat in her life as is.

Y/N: Yeah, those guys are Navadian's. They range from harmless to absolutely lethal. Though they weren't what I was on edge about.

Pari seemed interested in that seeing as she had to fight Three Gaint Armored Dudes that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It's where she got most of her scrapes and bruises actually.

Pari: Really? Not even those big guys? I mean they seriously pack a mean punch. Had to use my rifle to put them down...

She stated as she recalled pelting on with an entire magazine's worth of ammo. But you're pretty sure you had her beat in that regard... Even though you know how that feels, to be honest.

Y/N: Yeah those GIAN7's are seriously strong... But tall lengthy Bone Monsters with sharp ass claws and the ability to turn invisible are Way worse. They do spooky shit while trying to feat you to another abomination born from a giant mound of rotting flesh... Oh, and they aren't easy to put down either.

Pari had a look of "WTF?" on her face that I'm sure you can relate to here.

Pari: I'm sorry, but What?

You let out a long sigh as you have a LOT to explain.

Y/N: Come on, I'll explain what happened to me while we try and find this evil bastard hideout.

As you two walk through the streets of Navadia spooking some of the locals a bit, you both don't realize that you two are being watched from the rooftops by the same individuals you were fighting when you were falling into the void.

A/N: Alright, I'm gonna call it here.

Chibi A/N: I have a feeling what "Those Two" people are inspired by...

A/N: Yeah, it's obvious that these two are inspired by the Madness Project Nexus arena protags from both Classic and the 3D one. But only one of them is actually... Or was a Navadian.

Chibi A/N: Which one is it?

A/N: *Chuckles* I'm gonna make them guess, but I would hold off on doing that till more information comes up.

Chibi A/N: Yeah I kinda figured... Also what took so dang long?

A/N: Oh that would be me working on some other books and having my motivation working on them bounce around like a pinball.

Chibi A/N: And how many stories would that be?

A/N: About four if you're counting this one and the Overwhelmed book. One of them I'm thinking about releasing soon... Just after I get three chapters into it.

Chibi A/N: *Sigh* I'll go get the pickling barrel... Fem A/N you take over from here...

Fem A/N: *Poofs into the room* What the fu-? Oh... It's you two. What's going on now?

Chibi A/N: He's planning to release another book, but won't do it until he's three chapters in.

Fem A/N: What!? Don't you already have enough as is you dumbass!?

A/N: Look when I have a really neat idea I have to write it down ok!?

*The two began arguing as Chibi A/N left the room and sighed as he was gonna have to do the outro here.*

Chibi A/N: *Sigh* Alright... We hope you enjoyed with chapter and that it was worth the wait. A/N has a tendency to get motivated to write something else every time he sees a piece of media related to it. But other than that, we hope to see you in the next chapter! Stay Safe out There, and see you next time!

Aster: See you soon lovelies~.

Chibi A/N: There you are! Where were you?

Aster: Working on a project that may or may not be lewd in nature~.

Chibi A/N: Of course you are... Anyway, we'll see you guys later! Bye bye!

(I know the chapter ended already, but I have a bit of a question for you guys. If you know anything about Madness Combat you know that this series has X.5 parts to it. Now I'm not gonna do it right this second obviously or right after this chapter as that would mess with the flow a bit, but would you guys and gals like to have those here as well later on down the line? If you do the first one would be about those two "Interesting" Individuals that Y/N saw fighting in the distance and are currently following our protagonist. Other than that after about two more chapters we will be back in the world of the underground! With that, I bid you farewell, Stay Safe out There!)
