A forgotten broadcast is all it takes to make me a wanted man. It sent a message to god knows how many people, a message declaring that I will end the world. If that’s not strange enough, no one remembers what exactly the broadcast said or showed.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpfWPidVRl
But it didn’t matter.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhHbegNfta
For whatever reason, everyone believed it. Something primal told us it was true, demanded you to accept this inevitability. So here I am, hunted by everyone including my twin brother. 2 weeks in the wilderness searching for salvation.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4l5RcUYRj7
It’s out here, I know it. The one thing that I remember from the broadcast is the image of a ruined church. A once beautiful church I remember visiting in my childhood. I could never forget it or the area surrounding it. I know it better than the creators themselves.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVy31984p0
Maybe there I can find some answers and learn why the world has gone mad. But, if I don’t make it back and the mob takes me, I want to leave this.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68qEIffYJn
If anyone finds this journal, know that I wasn’t a monster. I would never destroy the world. I love it too much.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO6YrtJ5Xe
Krita bagged his journal and brushed off the snowy leaves. He breathed into his hands for warmth while looking into the darkness of the forest. With only the winter clothes on his back and a small bag with scraps of food, he takes the first step toward his destiny.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBJApL4aYD
“Here we go, no turning back.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOwA2VMREI
He walks forward into darkness but doesn’t fear whatever evil that may lurk inside. He needs answers and this won’t stop him.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7Rt6jdubS
For 15 minutes straight, his bruised feet trudged through the snow and dirt. Ever determined and faithful that this wasn’t the end. Despite the depressing winter chill that cuts into his exposed skin and throat.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYNN0AerDD
He navigated the twisting maze of the wilderness as if it was his home. But even he will get surprised by something.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa30lPFk2TF
“The heck?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOERyDG20M
A few steps ahead of him, awkwardly buried beneath the snow, is cans of preserved food.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWimPh6MtD
“Yeah, I’m not falling for that.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WK0626B8Z
“I don’t need you to.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2fgpwKoqE
Before Krita could react, a shadowy figure slithered out of the darkness and struck him on the head with something heavy.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvPJHhAnKy
“I can’t believe you’re not out yet.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIllDR6eNOU
“It takes more than that.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGerr4B8Tju
“You’re right, I shouldn’t play with my food. Your corpse will do for tonight.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl069MsNW7
The man pulls out a handgun but before he could fire, Krita lunged.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBTFgRdWOT
*BANG*
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyN3DL2pPW
Right on time, Krita diverted the shot but that’s only half the problem.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw7g8Sl0xa
“Let go!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV48BJDK8g1
The two struggled with the gun. The sounds of rough kicks and grunts filled the frigid air. But that’s not the only thing that ripped through the atmosphere.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0kUQXTdFA
*BANG*
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OIvZFyaes
*BANG*
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7u3kGgBZsb
Close calls followed by further struggle. Something had to change. There’s no way those gunshots didn’t draw more people. Thankfully, something did change when Krita decided to use his head.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipezMwpgH1
*Bang*
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu55W1R9Vz
“Fuck!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4pTLmsxBC
After that brutal headbutt, Krita quickly ripped the gun out of the stranger’s grasp. With shaky hands, he points the muzzle at the downed man.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrQDdxHGW3
“Do you even know why you’re chasing me?!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKBM3E307Q
“You know why.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVm74jNEtP
“No, I don’t! Why listen to some random worldwide broadcast that no one even remembers the contents of.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ860aEMQ84i
“…”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhPSKcA3tT
“The silent treatment? Really?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aoBggu9n3
“Just kill me already, I have nothing else to say to you.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhHoIccuXe
“Don’t tempt me.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DgUKi8hrb
“I rather die than to even be around you. End it.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2P0rrBT1n
Krita’s hands begin to shake further. The stress from all of this madness begins to finally bear down on him. The exhaustion, pain, and lost friends. The cold air sinks deeper into his skin but instead of freezing him, it only nurtures his building rage.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTL49tYwpBP
All the pain, betrayal, and sleepless nights. All because of people like this that just won’t leave him alone. It can all end if he pulls the trigger. One less person to deal with and an excellent way to relieve stress.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYBDtxFEuX
Voices like these whisper sweet relief into his mind. Only if he would pull the trigger and send this soul off to hell. It teases his conscious, edging him closer to the edge of the cliff.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYPKMZJru7
But there is another voice at the back of his mind. It says not to be like them. Don’t pull the trigger or bloody your hands.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRiemoEv58
These voices grind and clash inside his soul. Only one could win and there was only a second to decide.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4H1EjICAz
“No.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQHCFXeQvg
“What?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ORddGdOAX
“I won’t shoot you. That will only give you all fuel for the fire of insanity. I’m not going to play that game. Besides…”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Mwh3nRcTe
Krita uses the butt of the gun to knock the man out cold.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZf3saIKWF
“You’re judgment won’t be now. After all of this is over and resolved, all of you are going to jail for a long time.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONaJj7GOCO
Krita took a long look at the gun before deciding to chuck it into the snow. He refuses to use the enemies’ weapons. He will come out of this the same person, uncorrupted by this madness.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPIYLt9Apr
But to do that, he needed to find the church. He picks up the pace and wades further into the murky forest. Praying no one else will follow him.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GYufqKgt0
But that hope is dashed when he hears the sound of horses.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVdny9mppy
“Where did they get horses?!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSu0VoONM0
Krita abandons any notion of walking. He abandons his food bag and takes off running to where he knows the church is.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeAs407CXO
“It’s do or die now.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiZZzkq2Sj
The next 10 minutes threaten to stop Krita’s heart. He wouldn’t dare turn around, lest the horsemen get him. Unlike the last guy, he’s sure these new hunters won’t play games.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyieAM6BsqY
Despite the building fear, Krita didn’t give into despair. His vision may be cloudy but his mind remembers the path.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQmm9cOXtb
He weaves through the chaos like a dancer until the light reenters his vision. He can see it.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hFXJTgZln
“The church, there it is.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsSEzvufhR
A once beautiful testament to the lord, now ruined and broken. But there is still hope within. Krita forces his body into the forest clearing and then inside the building. It wasn’t a good landing though, he practically ripped the doors off trying to get in.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd4Sh6lZUk
But now he’s here. The windows are cracked, the chairs empty but light still beams down on the cross. He starts to take a step towards it before a voice calls for him.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd6pqZ9TEl
“Bro, are you in there?!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpErJhrFAT
“Kali?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUzICfchMS
Krita goes towards the window and sees 4 men on different colored horses. They’re outside as if waiting for something.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r4v6F53AZ
“Let’s just talk this out Krita. We’ve changed our minds. We know you’re not the bringer of the apocalypse.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr41KmvC1br
“Liar!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE0oZwtLTl
“So he finally speaks. At least we know you’re in there.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24igdVlyVj
“Darn it.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCje4F57o96
“Just make it easy on yourself. You can’t seriously think you’re worth more than the whole world.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ9RpGvsIe
“Of course not, but I’m dying because of some strange broadcast. You’re all the crazy ones to believe it .”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5rsauyAN7
“Better safe than sorry.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ4AwC1ght
“I’m your brother!”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02KmGWip39
“And?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZts7Kki3aJ
Krita storms off and starts searching for something, anything to solve this mystery. The floors, under the chairs, the holes, and even the ceiling. All the while trying to ignore the drivel coming from his opposite twin.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRlz3Lr3pc
But nothing is coming up. It’s just a ruined church. If anything is weird, it’s his brother and his lackeys.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl8SOaesWR
“Why aren’t they coming in?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4RPaXKAM9
He’s been searching the place for 10 minutes but they haven’t stormed the place.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9Rre3ODeH
“Why?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgfwGP7Eqf
The answer was revealed when something warm graced his back. He turned around and gazed up at the shining cross. He didn’t know what it meant but he knew he had to go further up.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDByeJXB3tt
So he climbed the steps toward the centerpiece of the church. When he was before the cross, golden lightning struck his mind. Images and memories flood his mind, his eyes flash golden as it all came together.252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehnZ2pJmSY
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbQyaTmxPn
He understood now. He knelt down and wept, now he understood his purpose as his shadow grew angelic wings.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPdxGFCNMh
“I understand now Father. My eyes are open.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eQ0t6ptkO
Krita exits the church and is greeted by a new sight. He sees his brother but there’s…something beneath his face. Something evil. With his resolve strengthened, Krita step forward to confront his destiny.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8Q387ehJv
“Finally, ready to surrender and save our world?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuARfGL3HV
“No, I’m here to confess.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHm9xVHtXR
“Oh really? Go on then.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2NJtkNzhg
“You were right Kali.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OO0OTkHnN
“About what? Go on, tell me how right I was.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdvcjUg011
“I am destined to end the world.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcI64XwWMqS
“Haha, I was-”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtME8Oy4Yx9
“But not in the way you hope, I’m not like you brother. I’ll help cleanse the evil off the kingdom and build it into something beautiful. What it was supposed to be.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYmLKWT469
Krita raises his hand to the sky and a flaming sword emerges from his being.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBEf30oPhn
“What are you doing!?”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzMwkEJrso
The other 3 horsemen try to stop Kirta but it was too late. He uses the sword to slash apart the clouds. Instantly, the sky opens up and holy light descends upon everyone, pushing the darkness back. The snow melts and the trees around are rejuvenated. But more importantly, slowly but surely, the church is rebuilding itself under the healing light.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWCpEaoh6P
In front of such light, the horses buckle in fear and the brother falls to the ground. He gazes up at the sky to see legions of beings beyond mortal comprehension descending down. Their purpose? To follow their king into the final war.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGyJj0ZIVD
“I’m doing what was written. I’m embracing what I am and leading the way for our King.”
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqj4VJkMzS
Krita stares into his foes with eyes of fire. He’s found his purpose. To help cleanse a world filled with evil. To end the world of the wicked. At last, their day has finally ended. A new one begins now.
