Volume 1: Chapter 2
The Beast Part 1
At dawn, Grimm Island was still ominous and frightening, Grimm can still be seen roaming and wandering throughout the island; some are hidden, while others are out in the open. But, they all have one thing in common: they're waiting for the right moment, to flee Grimm Island without attracting the attention of the other camps of Lake Lilac. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, Jasper appears and begins to float around them; the Grimm are aware of his presence but ignore him.
"RROOAARRRRR!"
A thunderous roar can be heard deep in the forest, and a pack of Creeps, bipedal Grimm that look like lizard-bird hybrids arrive. Displaying immense hostility towards Jasper. They try to assault him, but their attacks phase through him.
"You guys must be new, huh?"
The Creeps are still attacking him, so Jasper sighs and continues to float around while the new Creeps fight him. He hopes that they will realize that their attacks are ineffective against him, but since they are still juvenile, he hopes that their attempt to kill him will only last a few hours. He's become accustomed to new Grimm attempting to murder him, and as he's become more acclimated to them, he's even begun speaking with them, simply to keep himself sane.
"I hope Davey and Gwen are okay. Do you guys think they remember me?"
The Grimm continue to attack him, and after a few seconds, Japer's eyes and mouth begin to pour out a blue-green mist, which begins to envelop the Creeps that are assaulting him. The majority of the Grimm notices this and flees, leaving those who are unaware of their fate. The Creeps' bodies start to shred, sounds of flesh tearing apart can be heard, and their bodies start to contort, until they ultimately flatten to the ground.
"That's enough for today."
It was a beautiful morning in Camp Campbell, and what better way to begin the day than by learning about animals.
"Greetings, Campers! Or at least some of you. Today we'll discuss how animals in Remnant manage to live despite the presence of monstrous Grimm in their surroundings. Gwen won't be with us today because she's still recuperating from the battle a few days ago."
David then brings the children to a special animal, one that has been at Camp Campbell for many years.
"Alright campers, say good morning to Camp Campbell's mascot, Larry the Hamster!" he says as he gestures to a small hamster inside a cage.
"Now, everyone knows this, but I'd want to explain it to those who don't." Every living creature, including humans, Faunus, and animals, possesses an aura. We all have this energy within us; it acts as an invisible barrier, protecting us from strikes that would normally be fatal."
Spacekid jumps into the conversation.
"They aren't just for protection."
"You're right, Spacekid; our auras can be manipulated or projected in a certain fashion, which we call Semblance."
"Weren't you talking about animals?" Neil reminding David.
"Sorry, I got a little carried away there, didn't I? Now, the reason animals can exist in nature is because of their aura, which allows them to defend themselves; not only that, the Grimm appears to have no ill intent towards them, only towards us humans and Faunus, but when it comes to territory and proximity, conflicts between animals and Grimm may be seen."
Nikki raises her hand.
"Yes, Nikki."
"Can animals have Semblances?"
"That's a good question Nikki, but I don't know, maybe?"
"What do you mean?" Nikki questioned.
"There are tamed and trained animals that have battled alongside their owners, utilizing their auras to protect and save humans and so on. But I've never seen an animal have a special ability; if animals can have a semblance, it'll be utter chaos; imagine monkeys that can teleport, dogs who can fly, cats that can manipulate the weather; it might be an even greater problem than the Grimm, in my opinion anyway."
"Do you think Larry has a Semblance?" Dolph asked.
"If he has a Semblance, he's quite good at keeping it hidden; I've been looking after him for the summers, and I haven't noticed him doing anything extraordinary."
David opens the cage and gently grabs him, showing him to the campers.
"He's been in Camp Campbell for who knows how long, and that's where he will always be forever."
As David continues to tell stories about him and Larry, three sets of footsteps can be heard approaching the group, it was the other campers, the ones that manage to escape from the morning tour. Ered, Preston, and Max, they finally joined them.
"Hey Preston, Max, Ered~," Nikki said.
"MAX!?" David screamed.
David quickly covers Larry, hiding him from Max.
"What are you guys doing?" Max says.
"David is just showing us, Larry," Neil says.
"The hamster, where is he?"
The campers stare at David, perplexed as to why he's now terrified; David realizes this and stops concealing Larry to explain why.
"Well, the first time I met Max, he almost murdered Larry two summers ago. It's been two years, and I believe Max has grown to the point where he no longer has to express himself by injuring animals or creating contraptions that rocket innocent creatures hundreds of meters away."
"In my defense, I was aiming for your head, and I don't have to do all of that anymore if I wanted to get rid of a single hamster."
"What do you mean?"
Max points at David's hand, Larry is gone.
"Looks like he remembered me."
"Goddammit."
Gwen is currently resting in the counselor's cabin, clutching a book in one hand and reading it. While she's using her other hand in practicing her Semblance, by creating miniature Grimm creatures on her palm.
"I hope the kids are doing okay."
She says this as ashy hands with purple outlines pour her a cup of tea; she puts down his real hand, which is making little Grimm creatures, and grabs the cup of tea, taking a long sip.
"That is some good tea."
She then tries to stand up again, but to no avail, she's still tired and her body is still exhausted from the last battle. Gwen being bored decides to do something that she hasn't done in a while. She conjures these ephemeral hands once more, and they open a nearby shelf and take something, handing it to Gwen.
"My journal is still here, just where I left it, so where were we?"
Gwen has been trying to find answers to questions concerning Grimm Island since she arrived at Camp Campbell, and she has theories over how Grimm Island came to be.
"Understanding how Grimm Island came to be is one of Sleepy Peak's, or maybe even one of Remnant's greatest mysteries. If I figure out how the Grimm are created on that Island, maybe we'll be able to finally get rid of it, and kids won't have to come here to their death."
She takes a drink of her tea while she continues to ramble to herself, and as she presses her lips to the cup, she hears something break. She looks at the cup and sees a little crack has formed.
"Now that's not a good sign."
"All right campers, our mascot appears to have decided to leave and never return; let us try to find and capture him. Better yet, if you come across a far more capable animal for us to handle, feel free to tame it and adopt it as our new mascot. Do all of you have any questions?"
Nikki responded, "Can our new mascot have claws, fangs, and maybe even some venom?"
"Nikki, we need a cute mascot, not a pet-sized Grimm," David replied.
David was suddenly bombarded with similar questions from the other campers, some of which had nothing to do with their new task for today. Max, on the other hand, does not ask a question and instead comes up with a plan to get out of this chore, which he then gets advice from Neil and Nikki on.
"Why don't you come with us this time, maybe you can help us find a badass animal."
"Nikki, I've already help David with that two summers ago, scratch that, I think I managed to avoid helping him with that. I was busy doing other stuff back then with somebody… anyway, any ideas to ditch this shit."
"I agree with Max on this one, like why do we need the hamster for," Neil says.
Nikki responded, "It's a mascot and David's only friend he had since he was a kid."
"C'mon Nikki… no maybe your right, that explains why—"
While Neil and Nikki were originally trying to help Max, they got distracted and started chatting about David's social life. Max decides to come up with an answer on his own, but then notices someone dragging a blood-soaked sack. It was Quartermaster and his arrival gave Max a great idea.
"Hey, David, I think some of us should split up, and what better way to find Larry or any other animal than to bring Quartermaster along this time?"
"That's a great idea, Max. Those who wish to learn about the forest and animals from Quartermaster's perspective, please step forward."
Everyone immediately takes a step back, except for Max that is.
"Aww, you are such a camper today Max," David says as he tussles Max's hair, Max swats David's hand away.
"Everyone else is now on David's team. And I don't think I need to tell you that if you participate in this activity, you'll be awarded points, which you can use to enroll in a prestigious Huntsmen Academy, and if you get in, you'll be able to graduate and formally become a huntsman or huntress."
David finally walks away as he starts to prepare in searching for a mascot with the campers, every camper now goes in their familiar groups preparing with each other, while others are just planning to go solo.
Max begins to walk away with Quartermaster, he waves his hand and says to his two friends.
"I'm fine with Quartermaster; I'm sure he won't kill me, right? Apart from that, I need a day away from David; his positive energy is killing me, and good luck with the mascot problem."
Max and Quartermaster simply walk into the woods, leaving Nikki and Neil worried.
"Do you think Max's is going to be okay?" Nikki asked.
"He'll be fine," Preston says to the two.
When Nikki and Neil turn around, they see Preston. "I believe Max is capable of fighting Grimm alone, and I know he is capable of handling an elderly man. Anyway, I haven't fully introduced myself; my name is Preston Sun, and my two colleagues who are currently bickering behind me are Nerris Heath and Harrison Sahara. Max appears to have abandoned you two; would you like to join us for a while?"
"I guess we can go with you guys for a while, how about you Nikki, you good with that?"
"I mean we need to find a new mascot, joining you guys won't be so bad."
Preston interjects, "We're not planning to look for a mascot."
"What?" both Nikki and Neil said.
Harrison stops arguing with Nerris and explains to the two, "Remember how Nerris fought the Nevermore at the Grimm attack the other day, Preston and I want to help Nerris control her new weapon and her recently evolved Semblance.
"Evolved Semblance?"
Preston says, "Yes and Evolved Semblance, a person's Semblance can evolve or improve in a certain way that can benefit the user even more, similar to how Nerris's Semblance can now redirect any Dust attack. I'd like for her to get used to it, so she can fight with us side by side against some Grimm."
"How are you guys going to help her?" Neil said.
"By fighting some Grimm of course," Harrison replied.
"You guys aren't planning to go on Grimm Island, are you?" Nikki said.
Nerris corrects Nikki, "Nononono, that place is far too dangerous for me, besides I'm still training with this Semblance of mine remember. There are stray Grimm near the camps of Lake Lilac, including ours, since we're going to find Larry or a new mascot, were going to encounter a few Grimm in the area, you guys can help us fight with them if you want."
"Safety in numbers, I like it," Neil says.
"So, what are we waiting for let's go!" Nikki yells ecstatically.
For the time being, Nikki and Neil join Preston's crew. Unbeknownst to them, Nikki and Neil will awaken and face a deadly beast that will change Lake Lilac, just as the previous generation had experienced.
As Max and Quartermaster progress farther into the woods, clouds begin to form and the trees begin to look creepy and eerie.
"I have never been here in this part of the woods before," Max says "Its atmosphere is kinda like Grimm Island."
"Ssshhhhhh."
"Did you just shhhhhh me?"
"Sssshhhhhh, listen."
No sound can be heard at first, but then.
*twig crack*
Quartermaster quickly launches his hook hand towards the source of the sound, along with a chain attached to it, as it begins to pour out of his arm. The hook hand finally stops and hits something, Quartermaster reels it back. His hook hand has reattached to his arm with a click, and his hook seems to have caught something, a mask.
"Cool mask," Max says.
"Do you recognize it?" Quartermaster said.
"No, but it seems familiar in a way, but I can't seem to put my finger on it."
"Damn, I was hoping for some answers from you kids."
"Why us?"
"Because you kids brag a lot about knowing everything and everyone all of the time."
"Look, old man, I'm going to ignore that comment. So you better tell what's this mask is about or I'm just going to be even more annoying for every second we hang out."
"Alright, spare me. Look don't tell the other campers this but, something is going on in Lake Lilac."
"There's always something going on in Lake Lilac, our founder is a conman. The Flower Scouts has an alcoholic Garden Mother, and the Wood Scouts has a fucking man-child acting as their leader, tell me what's no going in this place."
"Well let me be more specific, Grimm Island is a place where Grimm can spawn, don't you kids think that a certain powerful group that doesn't have any empathy towards others, will want to take it and use it for their benefit at some point, boy."
Max gulps.
"Listen, jade eyes, this is just something I've been thinking about for the past several decades; if someone decided not to take Grimm Island for themselves at this point, it means one thing. They either simply lacked power or were cowards. And if they do take it today or in the future, that means they have the power and would die trying to take that island."
Quartermaster keeps the mask under his vest, he walks away from Max and gestures him to follow him. Max follows and walks beside him.
"Kid, you know something ain't right this summer, and you being a Faunus you have a powerful sense for these kinds of things. I can smell it in the air, don't you? Something is coming, and this mask I got must be from someone whose up to no good, and what puts me on edge is what happening in the town."
"The town?"
"Yup a small town, just a couple of hours away from Lake Lilac. We usually get some supplies there but, there have been people stealing from stores. What they stole were for survival. Tents, food supplies, clean water, and some Dust were even stolen."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I don't know, David and Gwen see potential in you including, him. I'm curious to see what you'll do with the information I've given you, so don't waste it; put it to good use."
Max simply nods and walks alongside him, and the two begin walking through this terrifying part of the forest, devoid of life and light. As they progress deeper into the forest, the trees become more and more beast-like, causing Max to get anxious and frightened, his hands begin to shake. And as they finally get out of the forest, Max falls to the ground sitting, star-struck on what he is seeing. And he begins to faint.
David and the group are now looking for a new mascot or find their old one, Larry the hamster. They continue to look for creatures and critters alike in the trees, under every rock, in the sky, and even beneath Lake Lilac's waters.
Nikki asks, "Hey David, what deadly animals can we find here in Lake Lilac?"
"Well, there aren't any dangerous creatures here; there were a couple of normal bears here a few years ago, but their population just declined over time for some reason. Anyway, Nikki, please find a small and manageable animal to handle."
Nikki walks away and rejoins her temporary group.
"So Nikki, did you tell David that you're searching for an animal to make sure he doesn't come looking for us," Nerris says.
"Yes, I did but, if we're gone for too long won't David get suspicious and try to find us at some point."
"Don't worry I got that covered," Preston said.
Where David and the other campers are currently holding up, a scream can be heard. Nikki and Neil, along with Preston's group, go to check on them; they hide behind a bush and watch the commotion. As a raccoon attacks Spacekid, he panics and yells, but gives a quick and unnoticeable thumbs up to Nikki and the others hiding behind some bushes.
"I asked Spacekid if he could distract David in exchange for some candies," Preston says.
"All right, then, while David is still busy, let's look for some Grimm," Harrison adds.
The crew set out into the forest in search of Grimm, bringing with them a map and other items that could be used as landmarks so that they wouldn't get lost. In less than a minute, they meet their first Grimm, a Creep.
"Okay Nerris, how about some target practice, you just have to strike that Grimm with whatever dust attack you have," Harrison says to Nerris.
"Okay," She says as she grabs her staff from her back and extends it. Nerris points her staff at the Creep in front of her, while the others stand off to the side, keeping a safe distance from her in case her attack fails.
"FIREBOLT!"
A ball of flame erupts from her staff and flies towards the Creep, but it misses. Now that the Grimm is aware of Nerris, it attacks her.
"NERRIS!" Nikki and Neil screamed.
As they start to run towards Nerris, Preston and Harrison stop them.
"Just watch," Preston says.
The Creep sprints and leaps at Nerris, but as it flies through the air, metal twirls and clangs can be heard, and Nerris' staff transforms into a sword. When the Grimm in the air notices this, it tries to fall somewhere else, but it's too late; Nerris grabs her sword and swings it at the Grimm with all her might, and...
*slice*
The Creep's body was sliced in two from its head to its belly, and Nerris takes a deep breath and turns to face her friends.
"I did it!"
As Nerris screamed she is immediately tackled by Nikki.
"You were so cool and calm when you sliced that Grimm in half. Who thought you how to use a sword?"
"Ered taught me a few sword fighting stances, but I wouldn't compare my swordsmanship to hers."
Neil rushes over and picks up Nerris by the shoulder.
"I didn't know your staff could do that, is it true that your dad gave it to you?" Neil asked.
"Yeah, he gave it to me this summer, still can't believe he gave it to me."
"What do you mean?" Neil replied.
"It's an antique, it belonged to my great-great-grandmother, she used it in the War, so I better not break it ha…haha."
Preston and Harrison finally join them, and Preston gives Nerris some reassurance.
"Well, you've had it for a few days and you're already getting the hang of it; it's not going to break. It's gone through a war, so I'm confident it'll be able to handle you."
"I guess so."
Nerris stares at Harrison after the three have exchanged congratulations and reassurance, waiting for his answer on how she battled a Grimm on her own.
"You did great," Harrison says begrudgingly.
Nerris gets a smug expression on her face after he says that.
"Oh, I did great huh, you better watch out before overtaking you in Dust Mastery."
She then chuckles and runs deeper into the forest.
"No fair, you Semblance makes you control Dust, hey do you hear me Nerris! Come back here!"
Harrison goes and looks for her as he begins charging up his Semblance, the power to create portals.
"Those two will never change," Preston says as he smiles.
"By the way Preston, I have a question. They seem to be good friends, so why are there two Dust Camps instead of just one?" Neil said, "It's been on my mind for some time."
Preston takes a seat on the ground and gestures for Neil and Nikki to sit with him.
"Let me explain how their relationship started: Nerris and Harrison became instant enemies after their argument on whose Dust techniques are better. Nerris prefers to utilize it in its most natural state, in the form of a crystal. Preston prefers to infuse it into his clothes, he can utilize Dust with a snap of his finger and even include it into his illusionist act and huntsman battles. So that's why their Camps are still technically separated. But being separated from each other is possibly one of the reasons why we got to be best friends."
Preston then takes something out of his pocket and shows it to Neil and Nikki, it's a picture. A picture of Preston, Nerris, and Harrison just smiling and having a grand time together, the look on their faces is just brimming with such joy that Nikki and Neil smile as well.
"As soon as I got in between them, everything changed. I helped them in working together; they started as enemies, but after a couple of summers hanging out with them, I turned them into bitter rivals; it's not much of an improvement, but it's progress nonetheless."
After reminiscing, Preston remembered that his two best friends are currently running through the woods without a map.
"Wait a second," Preston says as he quickly stands up.
Preston then uses his Semblance, the ability to make physical constructs to help in planning and tracking.
"Sorry, I just need to find those two."
"Why did we bring a map if your Semblance is basically a huge computer that can take notes and locations?" Neil asked.
"My Semblance is complicated and takes a toll on me if I use it too much."
"How are you gonna find those two?" Nikki questioned.
"My Semblance is unique in that I not only can build a table to discuss plans, but I can also imbue an object with information about its position, much like a GPS."
"Did you ask for their consent?" Nikki said worriedly.
"Yes! Of course, I did. I asked them and they said yes. Now where are they right now… what the….. we need to go now!"
"Where are they? Are their Grimm nearby them?" Neil asked as he starts to run with him.
"They forgot to wear their trackers, we need to go find them or they'll get lost for sure or worse."
"Doesn't Harrison have a Semblance that can make him teleport?" Nikki asked as she runs on all four.
"He does but he can't use it on living things, there's no time to explain let's go!"
As the trio begins to look for them a chorus of screeches can be heard, and after that, a thunderous tremor begins to shake the ground and the air, it becomes louder and louder. Nerris and Harrison can be seen sprinting towards Preston and the others, shouting and waving their arms.
"RUUNNN! Creeps Stampede!"
Out of nowhere dozens of Creeps appear, the stampede is filled with roars and shrieks, Nerris and Harrison grab Preston together with Nikki and Neil. They run and run, while they do so Preston is currently using his Semblance to find a safe path for them.
"I'll find us a way out of here will you guys slow them down, hit them with everything you've got."
The others try to fight off the stampede, Nerris uses her staff and to shoot off one of her Dust attacks, they flimsily rocket off from her staff but still hits the many Creeps. Harrison uses his wand once more to manipulate the Dust on his jacket to create a wall of ice, it slows them down for a bit and many are now dying off. But the Creeps continue on their stampede, and one of them manages to catch up to them and grabs Neil.
"NEIL!" Nikki screams.
"Dammit, we need to split up for now!" Preston yelled.
As Preston said that another Creep catches up and manages to slash Preston's back, as he took that attack, Nerris, and Harrison seething with rage attack the Creep at the same time with their Dust attacks.
*BOOOMM!*
Both of their attacks resulted in a massive explosion, one that caused the stampede to divert in a different direction. Debris and dirt can still be seen in the air, and the campers are no longer visible, but Nikki can be seen rising from a pile of dirt after a few seconds.
"GGGAAassppp….*cough* *cough* is everyone okay? Preston *cough* Harrison and Nerris are you guys alright?"
Just a few meters away from her, two campers stood and are barely standing up while holding each other in their arms as the dirt settles.
"Nikki, thank god you're okay, Harrison and I are fine, have you seen Preston?!"
With the dirt fog gone, everyone feels at ease knowing that there are now Grimm to be seen, but their demeanor quickly changes when they discover Preston lying face down on the ground, motionless.
"Preston!" They all screamed.
Harrison and Nerris rush to help Preston, flipping him over and checking him.
Nerris tries to assess Preston's current condition, but all she can think of right now is how much she blames herself for wounding him, and she's not the only one. Harrison can be seen doing nothing except watching Nerris and blaming himself for Preston's injury as well.
Nerris finally knows his condition, "His breathing is fine, but his aura's low we need to get back to camp."
"What about Neil?" Harrison asked.
Nikki answered, "I'll go find him, you two start helping Preston up and take him to the camp."
Nikki sprints on four to get Neil before they can say anything. She summons her two pink squirrels with her Semblance.
"You two know Neil's scent very well, if you guys even smell a whiff of him, get back to me."
The two squirrels nod and run in the opposite directions to have a higher chance of finding him. Minutes go by, as the search for Neil continues both of her squirrel pals return to her and tell her that they have no leads on his location. However, just as hope was fading, a huge explosion could be heard in the distance. Nikki rushes to the location of the explosion and sees Neil, up on a tree.
"Neil, what are you doing!?"
"I wanted to have a high vantage point while using my fiery Dust pellet to create that explosion you just heard, and also DUCKKK!"
Nikki immediately ducks, dodging from a Creep that was about pin her on the ground, and without missing a beat she punches the Creep and it turns to ashes. Neil sighs and slides down the tree.
"I didn't know you could climb a tree, Neil."
"Me neither, but since these things don't have arms, I had to learn. Now let's get back to camp."
As Neil was about to walk away, screech and wails begin to echo in the forest, as if the danger hasn't disappeared yet.
"Fuck that, let's wait for rescue," Neil says as panic can be heard in his voice.
Nikki responds, "The Grimm will be on us if we don't move."
As Neil was about to weigh the pros and cons of staying here for rescue, she notices something else: a footprint. Nikki nods in agreement with whatever Neil is saying and checks the footprint; it's a bear print. Neil is now aware of this and is becoming concerned.
"Oh no! There's Ursas in the forest, okay we need to find a tall tree, but wait. Ursas have arms and they still have bear-like attributes meaning they can climb good and that means—"
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
As Nikki silenced Neil, she takes a closer look at the bear print and she looks at it in awe as she figures out what it truly was.
"Neil, this isn't an Ursa paw print, it's a normal bear's paw print! And when there are bears, there's a cave. It can be a safe place where we can hide and rest up a bit."
Nikki quickly follows the bear prints, Neil was hesitant at first but changes his mind as he saw a Creep hiding in the bushes, looking at him. They both follow the bear tracks and end up in an entrance of a cave, Nikki goes in without blinking an eye. Neil, however, is still hesitant, he notices some wooden object attached beside the cave, it's a wooden sign covered with dirt and leaves making the text on it unreadable. Neil brushes off the sign and the text reads.
"None shall enter this cave
Unless you are a huntsman brave
Beware what's inside, The Beast
Or else you will be its next feast."
Neil runs in after reading this, looking for Nikki, and as he gets deeper into the cave, he hears Nikki's scream.
Neil called out to her, "Nikki!"
As Neil finds Nikki, he sees her on her knees, he grabs her shoulder and asks what's wrong.
She responded with tears in her eyes, "The bear is gone."
A skeleton of a huge Grizzly bear can be found in the middle of the cave untouched.
"That's weird," Neil says.
"*hic* what's weird?"
"Its bones are still here."
"I mean it's a real bear, not a Grimm."
"No, I mean it died right here, and as its body began to decompose shouldn't other carnivorous animals go after a corpse of a dead animal. Its bones don't even have a scratch on them. Either wolves aren't native in Sleepy Peak or something decided on keeping it."
"Like what?"
"I don't know. Whatever it is we should head out now, I think the Creeps lost track of us. And if you didn't know, there is a Beast here! It said so on an old wooden sign beside the cave."
"Fine, but I'm going to keep the bear's skull."
As her hand was about to touch the animal's skull, something crushes it to dust. Nikki sees small webbed feet crushed the skull, she sees what animal destroyed it, and this is a creature she has never seen before.
"What is that?"
"….A platypus and it just stepped on that skull like it was plastic."
"A strong animal like that will be a perfect mascot for our camp."
The ground tremors as Nikki attempts to grab it. There is an earthquake, rocks and stalactites have begun to fall from the ceiling. She shields herself with her arms from the approaching debris, but the platypus leaps at her and...
*CRUNCCHHH!*
Ending it here, for now, just trying to make them shorter and trying to get everyone to involve in a way. Part 2 of The Beast will be out in a couple of weeks or a month again. Comment and like if you want to read more about this AU.
