(WARNING, THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS RELIGIOUS THEMES, MENTIONS OF MASS DEATH AND MENTIONS OF DEMONS)
the forest winds were calm.
the birds chirped happily.
and at last, wally along with his beasts have found a new paradise to call home.
due to the massacre that the R.O.Bs had done in order to kill the heretics that were running around them, they had all become exhausted and tired, and as such, they were truly glad to have all found and gathered in a large forest clearing where a large pool of natural water sat.
wally found himself sitting cross-legged near the water with the R.O.Bs beside him as he smiled to himself and closed his eyes.
"my beasts..we have done amazingly" wally started speaking.
"we have survived through so much terror..from our isle burning into the sea to us being caged by demons..the fact we have managed to reach this point simply means we are all powerful and amazing, especially when we work together" wally kept speaking.
"thanks to our efforts here..we have managed to find a brand new home, one that we can explore and make as our own.." wally said.
"sure, we all know more threats may occur in this new world we've found ourselves in, but I believe that if we managed to fight and survive up to this point..it also means we can beat whatever these unknown lands try to throw at us" wally said.
"here, in this world we have wandered into..we are truly the strongest beasts across these lands"
after wally spoke, he breathed in deeply..
..then started speaking in a more harmonic fashion.
he was singing a prayer for both himself and the beasts around him.
a prayer of hope and power.
"this world we're in, may seem unknown to us"
"but despite our fear, our strength is what we'll trust"
"these are our lands now, they're not for anyone else"
"this place is all for ourselves.."
"we shall explore, every corner of these lands"
"so that we can learn, so we can understand"
"it's the best way, for us to know"
"all about our new home.."
"new terrors may arise, ready to sink in their teeth"
"but we shall stay strong, in order to stay freed"
"we won't be caged again, we won't be behind bars"
"for we shall explore and fight far.."
"long as we stay close, we can always fight back"
"against anything, who dares to come attack"
"we lost so much in the past, but forward we must go"
"for we have found our new home.."
the R.O.Bs around wally listened deeply to the prayer he was singing as his wooden hand grasped around his normal one gently.
wally believed that his divine song was only being heard by his beasts and nobody else..
..unaware of the fact that someone he had no knowledge about was listening in.
meanwhile..
in a small, nearby city that was by the edge of the forest, there sat a tall set of apartment buildings.
most of the people living within the apartments weren't that active currently..except for one specific woman.
Melissa.
Melissa was a quiet and peaceful girl, who never really cared about anything aside from her phone that she uses to record short, dumb videos of herself and post them onto Vine, she would always hope to gain some sort of fame from atleast one of her videos, but most of them never really gained any actual attention of any kind.
atleast..not until today of course.
Melissa at one point quickly went over to her nearby open window and began to record.
she was planning to show off her new, cyan-tinted hair (well, it wasn't really new, she actually dyed it a few weeks ago) and hope that some people would atleast like to see her pretty, shiny hair.
"heya, everyone! uh- check out what I've done with my hair!-"
a faint voice from the far-away forest made Melissa stop speaking.
"this world we're in, may seem unknown to us.."
"but despite our fear, our strength is what we'll trust.."
Melissa was completely silent as she listened to the unknown voice that was singing.
"these are our lands now, they're not for anyone else.."
"this place is all for ourselves.."
Melissa kept listening while recording at the same time, her face looked star-struck.
for some reason..this unknown voice and the way it sang..it made her heart flutter.
it was so beautiful, so soothing to listen to, that voice..
a faint blush went over her face without her even noticing.
by the time the song had stopped, she was silent.
after Melissa quickly posted the video seemingly on instinct, she turned off her phone for the first time in a while before looking out of the window and staring at the forest from afar while a small smile grew over her soft face.
she put her hand under her chin before speaking to herself again.
"..what was that song?..why was it so..gorgeous?"
"..who even sang it?"
Melissa had never truly fallen in love with someone at any point of her life, all she had were a few silly little soon-to-fade crushes with a couple students she met in her early highschool days.
but that unknown voice that she heard coming from the forest?..something about it just made Melissa's heart flutter like a panicked butterfly.
something in her heart simply wished that she could meet whoever that voice belonged to, if they were even a real person and not just a strange audiovisual hallucination.
but even if they weren't real..she hoped she could atleast hear that voice again.
