As Veronica and Faith Go through the Doorway, they see the rope. The rope that once connected John and his Friends, had snapped and fell all the way to the ground at the bottom of the cliff, as if the Moments that were happening now, and the moment that had already happened with John's Death and Veronica Witnessing it, had been split through Time and Space. Then, as Veronica moves down the "so called sturdy" shelf stairway, she notices that the rope that John had been tied to was still moving, slowly inch by inch but still, it was moving one way or another. That only way could mean...
"Jooooohhnnnn‼️‼️‼️"
Veronica then yells out into the forest ahead where John's rope follows into. "Jooohhhnn!!!" She cries out as she passes by Faith as Faith almost falls off the ledge of the stairway. "Hey wait, Why are you running all of a sudden!!", Shouts Faith concerned for Veronica's safety in this new/strange ecosystem.
"I'm going to look for my Friend before he gets snapped in half like a human cracker and I have to witness his parts flying through the air all over again!!" Veronica shouts in worryingly confidence as Faith yells understandingly, "Okay, I get it! But can you at least wait for this slowpoke Goverment Lady over hereee!!"
But within seconds, Veronica had already rushed off the stairs, and headed into the forest.
Meanwhile as Veronica rushes into the forest, the still in tact John Wonders about around the bottom of the tall, masculine alien Trees, looking at the strange insects and bio-life on this new, but strange, and still beautiful planet.
"Man I really wish Veronica and Luce Could Have come with me, they would have been like:
"Wow John yooouu weeerree toottaallyy riiigghhtt, this was really worth tagging along with yoou instead of staying behind and groaning our butts off while looking at old paint dry on the wall""
"Jooohhn!"
John then turns around towards the way he came and squints to try to see who's calling him from so far away.
"Joooooooooohhhhhnnn!!"
"Oh hey!! Veronica! How'd you get down here?? Did you finally decide to have fun and put Luce on watch duty" John cheerfully yells to Veronica as his fate slowly starts to close in...
"NO JOHN, LOOK BEHIND YOU‼️‼️‼️" Veronica screams while still rushing to John.
Then, out of the blue, John hears what will probably also be the last thing he sees... forever.
*crunch*
*C R A C K L E*
The medium sized branch behind him made an overly loud crunch sound to the point where John said what he thought would be, his true final words...
This one Phrase, echoed in John's Mind, and it wouldn't be the last time he murmured or thought this exact phrase:
"Yup... I'm definitely . . . D e a d ."
John swallowed those words, about to accept his sudden fate, when jus before the C r e a t u r e
Behind him could get a grasp of him...
*woooooosh*
Faith quickly runs into the scene that could've been bloody, but ended up grabbing John and saving his life.
"Are you okay kiddo?" Faith asks John.
"Not really, nope", John replies as he gasps for air in his sentence.
Then The Strange Monster with its geometrical/symmetrical shards on its legs, tosses a few of the shards off its legs as they float into the air and start flying toward Faith and John, and Veronica.
"Quickly, Run behind those Trees!", Faith shouts to the two teens as they're still dashing for their dear life.
"Alright! Trees, Got it." Veronica says while running to the back of some trees as John just scardily nods towards the command from Faith and also runs behind the trees.
As they run and take cover behind the purple colored trees, the shards that were heading towards them hit the trees instead of them as the shards make a glass sounding "*boyee yooing yooiinngg*" sound.
Then Faith preaches a plan to Veronica and John, "alright if we run as fast as we can from these trees here, all the way back to the doorway... I think we can make it. "
*Distant Monstrous Roaring Intensifies*
"Alr let's go before it eats us or somethin, shall we!" Faith chants as she, John And Veronica try to run more out of the forest, of course until more of the Huge Humanoid, Sharded Creatures decent from the sky with big giant Jet Pack looking Equipment on their backs and surround them within the forest.
"Yup, now we're all dead..." John sorrows as the Big Advanced Creatures hovering over them form a Friggin Gun out of Shards and point the now formed space guns, into the trios faces.
Right Until out of the darkness of the forest, a monkey like silhouette throws a black ball with a spark on the top in the middle of the Huge Creatures and our Trio of Humans in which the Large Creatures just start shooting at the black ball to see what happens and after the creatures first shot at the black orb, it turns out to be a smoke bomb because in the blink of an eye, the creatures had no vision and were fumbling around in confusion.
Then The Alien Monkey, who was first hiding from the shadows, appears in front of our Human Trio with the beauty of its alien look (of course due to its naturally alien environment that was waaay different from earth) and pulls out two strange crystals from its lil leather sack that Veronica and John sees it's carrying on its side.
The Monkey then, without hesitation, quickly grinds and rubs the two large chunks of blue-ish purple crystals together, (almost like starting a campfire) and after the third spark at the fourth, a portal like blip appears around Faith, Veronica, John, and the Monkey. And as the Blip appears for a faint second, it also disappears, with them in it as they suddenly teleport to a whole other location on this strange, But Big and very, very very, Beautiful World, all behind...
