ray pov

A song could be heard playing the more they went down into smithery, Ray could feel a connection in his mind to someone close, A voice could be heard singing along with the song it sounded familiar, His body moved faster to get to the voice it must be her He thought, He felt happy yet he felt fear as well to what he would find at the lowest deepest floor it wouldn't be what he expected he knew that.

yet his body said felt otherwise, As they reached the final floor a song could be heard clearly, A white gate was at the end of the hall with golems Ragnarok b charged up a blast and fired at them, They did as well fire back as they shot contumely at each other both were wounded some of Ragnarok b was scorched and burning while the golems could no longer move or fight.

but there was one golem left he charged in try getting even as it shot him, Once he got close he quickly used his claws to destroy it, but before it was destroyed it fired one more blast from its railgun past Ragnarok to ray and jack, Florence quickly changed into its eagle form taking up most of the corridor.

he open wings up protecting ray and jack behind him it hit Florence but it bounced back hitting the rain gun back melting it on the impact it hit the floor with a loud thump, The golem collapsed on itself self turning back into a husk of stone.

Ragnarok eyes start to flicker off and on the flame on its body started to change blue it held onto the wall its claws pricing the metal, It got harder for him to move and to walk, Jack quickly runs over to Ragnarok to check ifs he's ok He inspects the damage the holes from the railgun blast burned deeply into Ragnarok it scorched most of its body.

Ragnarok got on his 2 feet quickly once more before jack looked more at his damage "you shouldn't move just return" jack try to convince him but he shook his head in protest he moved over to the gate and used his claws to pry open the white gate as it open they could see buildings being made stars forming and the world itself changing as they watched.

Ray and jack quickly saw past it and saw a room full furniture ray looked to Florence and ordered him "Florence stay with him ok", They walked through the open path in front them As they did ray visions started to act up they were distorted but he could hear a voice "my little sweet apple pie" he heard in the vision, The gate closed behind them when they entered, The room was filled with music the walls were black and white.

They saw a person up ahead playing the piano she a fox mask with silk clothing covering her body like a dress with one white wing and one black one as well, The anger could felt coming off her the guilt and sadness The regret as she was playing the piano and singing along ray he knew the song she was singing he remembered it clearly and the voice who was singing they walked forward to her.

She suddenly stopped singing and turned to them his vision cleared he saw his aunt face past the mask she wore, As the vision faded she suddenly was close to him putting him into a tight hug ray was surprised but he hugged back jack looked at them for a second and sighed "I go look for some supplies you can stay here ill be back" he said she suddenly appeared in front of him words started to appear in front of him.

"What is it you seek," It said, "We're looking for a resource to repair a train," He said skeptically she thought for a second and pointed to a room that says stay out with big words on it "whatever you looking for should be in there," She wrote he nodded and started to walk over to the room rip open the door as he did he walked in and looked around.

She then turned to ray he looked around to avoid her gaze she walked up to him and dragged him to the furniture he sat down on the couch and looked down she sat in the chair next close to him.

"so um what is this place," Ray asked she started to write, "I don't know my self she wrote I was just coming back to visit your father and check on him when got to the house the door was open so let myself inside I then was suddenly knock out I don't for how tho and woked up here in this clothing I cant really leave tho" I get very unstable.

"Oh," Ray said emotionally "I have a question for you was it you who was contacting me" she tilted her head in confusion, "I have been having visions things that had yet to happen things that had happen when we reached this level I could hear your song I could hear you calling me".

She started writing again "how strange I may have maybe I did it without realizing they did say my song can reach people across the world I took as a joke but I guess it was true she wrote".

"Maybe I did try to contact you im not sure but this place, But to answer your question im not sure I probably did it so I can have freedom im the only one here but the room you asked, In general, It Gives me whatever I want all I have to do is think it, Anyways someone visits but I don't know who I can never see them but I hear and feel the footsteps and there voice it's really strange"

"But lets at that leave at that" What about others are they ok," She asked ray didn't know what to say at this moment he tried to think of something but nothing popped his mind he knew he should tell her the truth he sighed All I know is Ilana is still here well her humanity and I believe my little brother as well the others ones im not sure? she looked confused at him "what do you mean" she wrote".

"What I mean is that their bodies are not human anymore there something entirely new and different she has wooden flesh and much shorter and looks close to an animal, Her voice is even distorted and she has an ability as well so those my brother I think I'm not sure what caused it tho even everything in this city is either dead or something else entirely.

Granpa is no longer can be saved I feel it and with his broken body being taking controlled of we can't even leave or escape him he something entirely different and we can't do anything left to keep him at bay anymore the last time we had the advantage now we don't ".

"As she listened she started to write, "I will help you," she wrote "how can you said you can't leave you will be unstable and will die if you do" it's indeed a chance that will happen but I will try you still have a chance of surviving and ending this nightmare so please let me do this"

He looked down at his feet and whispered "ok aunt merauil " as the conversation ended jack ran into back into the room with the supplies in his hands "its time to go" ray nodded sadly and got up and walked up to him.

Ray took one last look at his aunt then turned back to the gate, It opened and merauil walked past them out the room and walked out into the corridor her body glitched unstably yet she continued walking forward "why did she leave anyways" jack responded "she wanted to help us this was her last wish" Jack nodded.

They both followed behind her the sound fighting could be heard ray and jack ran past her they find Ragnarok a&b heavily damaged yet still fighting and Florence pinning the unhinged man down, Florence body was melting its circuits exposed and broken half of its face was gone, Merauil walked forward a light of blue aura surrounding her as she moved forward, The ragnorocks tried to get up but failed.

"Florence, "Ray said brokenly at the sight of him Florence looked to him so did the ragnorocks and spoke in unison in a humanoid voice "go we will keep it busy" as some of Ragnarok a and b turn into nanobots it touches Florence and copies its data ad there data within it and flys to ray and jack and turn into 3 memory chips jack grabbed his 2 while ray took his.

Ray tears start to fall as he hugs the chip close, jack grabbed his hand and dragged him away, And ran out of the smithery going higher up the level until they reach the entrance they run out and see the carnage that happens between Ragnarok and the unhinged man suddenly he feels ray pulling away from him

"We can't leave them"! ray screeched trying to get out of jacks hold jack turned and looked at ray with a stern look "we can't waste the time they used to protect us we must go," He said with authority ray went silent and stopped trying to get out of jacks hold, Jack then turned around and started to run dragging ray with him.

the air was crispt with smoke the smell of fire the feeling shockwaves moving through the structure violently a melody could be heard ray knew this song the waltz of the end, Florence and the ragnorocks used all there remaining strength to keep the unhinged man down.

But he broke free and tore through Florence with many hands but Florence did not yield he slammed the unhinged man down once more his circuits started to attach themselves to him and shocked him with 1000 bolts of steam energy the air was sucked into Florence as he did this replenishing him as he shocked him, Ragnarok a&b charged up a blast chronetome energy and there cores heated up to point of boiling.

Florence core glowed brightly with them, Merauil continued to sing everything around them was being littered with music notes the unhinged man screeched in anger as the whole area covered in a white light their cores explode causing a chain reaction that melted the area down to molecular level the explosion rose to the clouds bypassing it with extreme force.

They kept running never looking back they knew if did there sacrifice would be in vain the song ended with a beautiful tune, Flowers bloomed from the carnage fruit and vegetables erupted from the earth were the smithery once was, The flowers flew past them making a path to safety, The base was close they could see the barrier lifting jack ran faster with ray behind him they got to the base then barrier closed, the explosion kept expanding upwards yet never reached them.

Words in the sky could be seen as the explosion stopped "may you find the dance along your way" it said before it vanished ray cried harder as he saw it and jack hugged him close as it turned to night.

When the end comes where do you go from here how far will you reach and how will you reach that heaven, a song is extensions of oneself so to you reader what is your steps for that great ending of yours.
