-Breaking Balaam's Resolve By Leaving Him-
(Balaam vs Kirell Good)
Day 3
Goal: Balaam's friendship below 10% everyone else accepts you and you send Philio to Balaam
Kirell just couldn't understand this guy. One minute he was fighting as if his life depends on it next he's swearing to be her Prince Charming. She found everything he said either a riddle or just absolutely cringe. Honestly she doesn't know why she stayed this long. Though she did feel guilty about his leg, but he was going to kill people and he doesn't believe in the whole resurrection for all. Maybe he really isn't worth her time.
"That's a scary look in your eyes Kirell..." Balaam looked away, "I'm not sure why but it pisses me off." He admitted, "I'm start to think you actually might want me dead..." Balaam tells her.
"It's not like you believe this whole resurrection thing will work out for us all. And obviously if your against the idea so much than it's not going to work!" Kirell tells him.
"You know you could like at least try to have faith in me once in awhile. Just because I don't like something doesn't mean I won't give it a shot!" Balaam growled.
"How do you expect me to trust you? All you've done up to this point is kill folk! Or try to kill them!" Kirell hissed.
"Than maybe you need your fucking eyes checked! Because obviously your blind as a bat!" Balaam shouted, "Go on Kirell. Get out of here. Before I kill you myself!" Balaam hissed.
"I will! And just so you know. I hate you!" Kirell ran off crying.
Balaam sat down unable to think or feel he just held his sides in pain.
"Balaam... your reason for living... I can feel it twisting in agony inside you. If you can't fight it you will turn undead." Charon warned.
"Fuck it hurts! I don't need Kirell! I just need revenge. I gahhh fuck... Charon... why isn't this working? It hurts." Balaam cried.
"I told you... to find a new reason to live beside revenge for your resurrection... and I'd punish you for wasting my time..." Charon sighed.
"Fuck... fuck... I need to live for something... something besides revenge or your voodoo magic is going to turn me into an undead?!?" Balaam cried in pain.
"Well there's more to it than that... But that's part of it." Charon nodded.
"Than I'll kill. I'll bring you all the souls you could possibly ask for. It doesn't matter who but you could have thousands and billions of successors!" There was a crazy look in Balaam's eyes.
Charon looked away and sighed, "Fine... only because I like you. I'll take you as my successor. It won't be pretty. But I'll deal with the consequences... Perhaps it's pity... Funny how... I can still show compassion and kindness still." Charon was impressed with himself.
Balaam calmed down, "That actually doesn't sound so bad... So what do I do?" Balaam asked.
"Kill everyone in the game even Philio. The last person will be Kirell. She will be your test. If you succeed you'll become my successor. If you fail well... A fate much worse than death awaits you." Charon sighed.
"What kind of test???" Balaam asked.
Charon goes quiet.
Balaam sighed and looks at his gun questioning his life, "Will I have to kill Kirell?" Balaam asked.
Charon just looked sad
"Do I got what it takes to do that??? I don't even know... And I think... that scares me..." Balaam looked worried.
"Think about it tomorrow. It's time for bed." Charon replied.
On day four Kirell tells everyone that she has agreed to kill Balaam. Though as the days go by she feels guilty for leaving Balaam in the state he is. So when they met Philio she sends him to help Balaam. The day than ends for them.
Charon is fighting of the undead horde, but they aren't attacking Balaam.
"Why are these assholes attacking me?!? I can't fucking shoot them if they don't want me dead!" Balaam grabbed a two by four and starts bashing their brains out to help Charon.
"They sense your on the verge of becoming like them. They probably won't attack you for the rest of the game." Charon pointed out.
"Huh. But they are attacking you even with Philip's mask." Balaam pointed out.
"They sense my presence and know who I am now. They are unhappy with me keeping them here so long. Rightfully so. Just so many... so tired." Charon collapse on the ground.
"Holy shit! Hold on!" Balaam stands over Charon and begins protecting him, "Get up Charon!" Balaam ordered.
"I can't move... I think a few of them hit me... This might be where it ends for me..." Charon closes his eyes.
"You can die?!? But your literally a god!!!" Balaam keeps attacking the undead until the zombies stop, "Hey they just stopped." Balaam keeps whacking them away and helps Charon to his feet letting him lean on him.
"Sorry. I haven't had much time to rest. So busy. So tired... so very tired." Charon passed out on Balaam who holds him up.
"Holy shit! He's really out cold!" Balaam shouted.
"Oh dear! What's this!?!" Philio ran over to them looking at them both worriedly, "Dont worry he's just suffering burn out. Hmm??? Your leg. You just be Balaam. Kirell sent me to help you!" Philio replied.
"What!?! Kirell... Kirell sent you to help me???" Balaam looked so shock and he felt so weak and started to cry.
Balaam collapsed into the ground along with Charon.
"Oh dear!!! Are you okay!?! Hold on! I'm a doctor! I will help you!" Philio tells him.
Balaam tried to cover his face as he cried, "She cares... Stupid asshole... I really thought... I wish she'd be a little less colder... I really am sensitive and vulnerable." Balaam calms down, "I'm fine doc. Let's get us all to a place these undead aren't okay?" Balaam asked.
"Not a problem." Philio smiled.
Balaam carries Charon to the church but freezes, "Come inside. Why are you stopping?" Philio asked.
"Oh I just wondered if other gods are allowed into their church. But than I realized this church probably belongs to Charon." Balaam entered the church.
"Huh. I guess it's a bit odd for a church to be here in a world of undead... yeah it's probably Charon's. Or Hadus! Or some other god of the underworld or netherworld!" Philio tells him, "But what point is religion here?" Philio laughed.
"Well I don't know. How about the fact there's a literal god of death watching over us." Balaam pointed out.
Philio thinks about it, "Huh. Yeah I guess your right." He smiled and looks Ron over, "Hmmmm... He has a pretty nasty cut here. Imma try and fix it." Philio bandaged Charon up, "Hmmm... I don't think I like your task." Philio pointed out, "But I will help you." He decided.
"What are you Charon's basterd child?" Balaam asked.
"No... I don't think so... I'm human just like you." Philio pointed out.
"Than how would you know what my task is?" Balaam hissed.
"I don't. It's the vibe you're giving... It makes me nervous." Philio admitted.
"Sorry this just who I am I guess." Balaam shrugged.
"Well. Reguardless. Your friend asked me to help you so I'm going to try." Philio explains.
"Cool you stay here with Charon while I pick off these undead." Balaam ordered and goes killing undead.
Argo shoots the undead in front of Balaam and they begin fighting. Hilde and Kirell enter the building where Philio is hiding and talk about what Kirell is going to do after Balaam dies. After deciding Philio will be next they go to help Argo. Kirell sees an opening, but doesn't take it.
Hilde tried to bash Balaam in the head with a pipe, but he dodged. He points the gun at Hilde and shoots her leg.
"Gah!" Hilde cried.
"Just do you know I could of killed you right there." Balaam picks up Hilde bridal style making her let go of the pipe as he dodges Argo's gun, "Your my last hope for resurrection..." Balaam runs off with Hilde who had passed out from pain.
"HILDE!" Kirell cried.
"I'm sorry Kirell it's to dangerous!" Argo tried to stop her, but Kirell runs from him.
"I have to save Hilde!" Kirell screamed.
Philio follows them wanting to help. Balaam throws Hilde to the floor and quickly boards the door with a dresser.
"Fuck the monk isn't here?!? Dam it I don't have time for traitors!" Balaam lays Hilde on a couch and begins treating her wounds.
Charon wakes up and sees Balaam with Hilde, "So... you've found hope it seems. Will she be your new resolve?" Charon asked amused.
"That's what I'm hoping on." Balaam groaned
Kirell slams into the door, but it won't open, "Hilde! Hilde!" She goes around back.
Argo decided to try and shoot the door down, "Your cornered Balaam give up Hilde now!" Argo shouted.
"As if you'd let me walk away from this basterd." Balaam hissed.
Hilde wakes up and screams, "Calm down. I'm not going to hurt you if you don't hurt me. Please I need your help?" Balaam begged.
"As if I'd ever help a murder like you!" Hilde hissed and Balaam our the gun to her head.
"I don't think your in a position to say that. I don't have much time." Balaam can hear Kirell trying to climb up the window, "Hey Argo you can hear me right?!? Even over your gunshots?" Balaam shouted.
Argo is trying to move the dresser using the hole he made, "Your just lucky I can't get a clear shot of you yet." Argo shouted.
"Okay fine. I guess I might as well start my confessions." Balaam took a deep breath, "I think my life went wrong when that piece of shit drunk basterd tried to hurt mom again. I was so angry. I was tired of the pain. I snapped. So I killed him naturally." Balaam explains, "But... I didn't realize what a stupid mistake that was." Balaam sighed.
"To protect me. My mom turned herself in as the murder and went to jail on my behalf. It should of been me. After that I ran away having nowhere else to go. I found myself getting picked up by this shady organization... They take kids like me all the time. They would strap bombs to their chests and send them to their death to kill the enemy." Balaam sighed.
"I should of died like them. But this old man saw something in me. Something worth protecting I guess. And he took me under his wing. Taught me to fight to kill. To survive. I hated it. I hated killing. But when I started to think maybe they deserved it like that drunk basterd did. It made it easier. Less painful. I knew I was lying to myself. I didn't care. If you ask me. He was asking to much of me to kill anyone." Balaam sighed.
Kirell opens the window and starts crawling inside as Argo stopped to listen and Hilde looked at Balaam in tears.
"He didn't like it. He didn't like me making excuses. I don't know what he wanted from me... Does just want me to kill everyone heartlessly? Does he want me to suffer and feel guilty? All I know is that making an excuse for killing people like a sense of justice. You know justifying their deaths. It was wrong. And somehow that's worse than actually killing folk??? Maybe he was just trying to protect me in his own way. Trying to keep myself from desensitizing myself so I don't forget my humanity." Balaam admitted.
"But he took away that safety net. That shield to protect my heart. I could no longer face what I was doing. It was too much pain and angony to bear. I thought about killing myself a few times but I had a best friend. She made all the pain and agony vanish. When I was with her. Nothing else mattered. She died in a car accident though. Leaving me alone with the cruel world around me and my own sins." Balaam held back tears.
Kirell had entered the room, but hesitated herself, "That dream! No way! That's my dream. All those memories are mine! But I never told him about the friend in a car accident!" Kirell thinks horrified.
"I was split. Between the guilt and continuing my work. If I continue my work I could be with that old man who I thought of as my dad. I could be something he'd be proud of. And even if I hated killing. I could have a good life out of it. I also wanted to leave though. It's too much. I was desperately trying to escape my pain without resorting to killing myself. I thought maybe mom can help..." Balaam paused.
"I don't remember what happen. I do know. That at some point I returned to my job. I'm sure I must of asked the man who took me under his wing to help me... but... Instead. He shot me dead. He ended my life... I hated him for it. How could he? Why would he? I trusted him!!! But I guess that just goes to show you can't trust anyone in this world." Balaam let Hilde go.
"This life isn't even mine to live. It's Kirell's life. I'm only the part of her she hated most. Despite that... I want to live too. I want a life to call my own. I want to live. But I don't have a reason to anymore. Kirell has abandoned me. She doesn't believe in my resurrection. So I have no point of continuing." Balaam looked at everyone.
Kirell was starting to cry, "Balaam is me???"
"So... Hilde... Can I ask you this. Is it you or Philio who's the friend that died in that car accident?" Balaam asked.
"It was me." Hilde cried.
"Will you accept me? Will you give me my purpose of living? I want to protect someone who's dear to me. To watch over them as I used to and support them. Kirell has given up on me. So... Can I count on you instead to be that person?" Balaam begged.
Hilde pauses unsure, "I'm sorry. I mean I know you're Kirell as well, but I just don't know you well enough..." Hilde tells him.
"Charon tells me. I'm becoming an undead. I have two options now. I can try and figure out his task for me that won't get me revived, but will keep me from not having to die or... I can just end it here and now." Balaam puts the gun to his head, "I'm sure this will work. If I want to kill myself my gun will work on me." Balaam replied.
Argo tried to get into the room, "Balaam wait." Kirell ran over to him in panick, "What's the other task... maybe it won't be so bad..." Kirell offered.
"I have to kill everyone. Leaving you last." Balaam tells her.
"Oh... yeah that's bad. Never mind." Kirell backed off.
Balaam looks really sad, "I don't think I can ever hurt you Kirell not after knowing the truth about us. But if I die... That means Argo is going to have to kill Kirell." Balaam paused.
Argo is in the room now, "Don't do it. Don't shoot yourself!" Argo shouted.
Balaam points his gun at Argo, "I can't... I won't. Let you hurt us again. But I don't want to kill you either!" Balaam was crying.
Argo hugged Balaam, "Put down the gun Balaam. It's going to be okay." Argo swore.
Balaam dropped the gun giving up, "I... I'm sorry." Balaam cried.
"No I'm sorry. I should of never hurt you and Kirell. I was wrong to shoot you guys. I thought I was ending your suffering and giving you peace, but all I did was take away your right to live. The lesson I tried to teach you... I ended up failing to see on my end." Argo held Balaam tightly.
"Dad... please. You have to kill me to go back. I won't let you hurt Kirell. I can't!" Balaam tells him his gun reappearing in his hand.
"Than let's go back together Balaam. This time. I swear. To be a better dad to you and Kirell." Argo pointed his gun at Balaam.
"Thank you... I promise... From now on. Your the one I want to protect most in the world." Balaam smiled happily.
"Hilde if you'd please?" Argo asked.
"Right!" Hilde nodded.
"Wait!" Kirell panicked, "Balaam. . . I'm sorry for not believing in you and for abandoning you. I just want you to know. I don't hate you. And I hope we can be friends when you get your own body." Kirell cried.
"Sure. If you don't hate my guts by than. I'll happily be your friend. Thanks Kirell." Balaam cried.
"On the count of three shoot!" Hilde shouted, "One two three shoot Argo." Hilde shouted.
Balaam and Argo shoot each other in the heart and fade away. Charon smiles looking relieved.
"I was almost sure that he had lost his way. Thanks to Argo he found his way back. I couldn't be more happier with these results." Charon smiles.
The game continues until everyone is resurrected once again.
The End
"Breaking Balaam's Resolve By Leaving Him-
(Balaam vs Kirell Netural)
Goal: Balaam friendship below 10% but above 0% everyone accepts you, but you didn't send Philio to Balaam
It all began when Hilde has jumped in to attack Balaam. He was sure by now that Kirell didn't care if he died, so why should he care if he killed any of them. So he shot her.
He than escape to find Philio was missing and only Charon was there with him.
"So... you are going to try becoming my successor?" Charon asked.
"What other reason do I have to live for?" Balaam was very gloomy.
"Very well. Philio is next." Charon replied.
"He freaks me out." Balaam awnsered.
"I'm sure if you ask him to die we will." Charon replied.
"The problem is I can only shoot him if he wants to kill me." Balaam groaned.
"And the moment you shoot Argo you condemn him to no rebirth." Charon pointed out.
"Is that your way of saying to find a way to get everyone resurrected and become your successor? God that's like impossible!" Balaam declared.
"Do you want to be my successor or not. If not you could always die." Charon pointed out.
"Fuck you. Nah. I'll figure it out." Balaam thinks about it.
Kirell is pissed about Balaam killing Hilde, but the next day when she tried to stop Balaam, Argo knocked her out to fight him alone.
She can see Balaam is winning against Argo when she wakes up so she runs to save Argo. He throws his gun to her and Argo gets it back.
Argo fires and Charon takes the hit for Balaam.
"HOLY SHIT CHARON!" Balaam jumped in panick.
"I'll be fine isn't the first time I've died. Go find Philio." Charon ordered.
"Oh my god Ron!" Wait Charon???" Kirell was really confused but Balaam managed to escape as Ron turns to dust becoming the wind.
"What just happened?" Argo blinked confused.
"Hey there monk. I need your help. I need you to kill me." Balaam sneaks up Philio.
"I can't kill I can only die." Philio explained.
"Yeah but in order for you to die you need to want to kill me. Do it now before it's too late." Balaam ordered.
"Kirell! Philio!" Argo ran to save him.
"Dam it Balaam your not getting away with this!" Kirell shouted.
"Your task is to help people than help me!" Balaam shouted.
"I guess my death would help you and Kirell. Very well Balaam I'm going to try killing you. Please shoot me before I can." Philio picked up a rock and Balaam shots him in the face.
"PHILIO!!!" Kirell screamed in tears.
"Don't worry. I've finished my task too. Good luck with yours." Philio fades away.
Kirell's eyes turn red, "BALAAM!" She screeched.
"Oh yeah. I feel your hate. Is it weird how I like it..." Balaam's eyes turn red, "COME ON KIRELL HAYE ME MORE!!! Hahaha! I fucking love it! Hate me! Hate me!" Balaam shouted crazily.
Argo cocks his gun at Balaam, "No! I won't let you shoot him he's mine!" Kirell screamed.
"I can't you!" Argo shouted, "You need to calm down!" He begged.
"It's not going to work daddy. She's gone. You feel it too. That bloodlust!?! That anger! God the feeling it's amazing! I feel great! Come Kirell come at me! I got a lot of shit I want to say to your dumb face!" Balaam shouted.
Kirell runs toward him trying to swing a two by four as Balaam dodges laughing. Argo grabbed Kirell and holds her back.
"IM GOING TO KILL YOU BALAAM NOTHING IS GOING TO STOP ME!!! NOTHING!!!" Kirell screamed.
"God I think I getting a boner. Come on Kirell hate me even more! I fucking loving it right now!" Balaam laughed.
"I'm not your daddy Balaam." Argo tells him.
"But you are daddy. You and Kirell and me were family! What a twisted fucked up family we are though!" Balaam laughed.
"I'm like Kirell big brother trying to always protect her from herself. Like a good little dumb ass I am! I take all her pain and all the bad things away as best as I can and keep her from killing herself and this is the thanks I get. Only bitter cold hatred." Balaam laughed.
"I DONT HAVE A BROTHER!" Kirell shouted.
"Haha true! True! So true! Kirell. Sweet Kirell. Partner!!!" Balaam smiled creepily, "You recently dreamt of your life as a contract killer no? And the day you left me you had a bad dream about your best friend being in a car wreck, but you no tell me oh no. You rather suffer alone in agony! But not me! You looking at honest Balaam here. I not going to bleed for you no more!" Balaam laughed.
"You're me!?!" Kirell realized going pale as she stopped fighting.
"Ring a ding a dong this girl gets a victory song." Balaam laughed.
"I see. You're Kirell worse part of herself. Kirell you just need to give me permission to shoot him." Argo tells her, "You don't have to face him alone." He begged.
Balaam reloads his gun and points at Kirell, "Go right ahead partder I'm ready to kill." Balaam warned.
"But if your me. Isn't it counter productive to kill well some???" Kirell's eyes had turned to normal.
"Nah... Because I'm not getting revived like the rest of you. I'm going to stay here forever with Charon. There's nothing out there for me in the real world to go back to." Balaam admitted.
Kirell paused to think about this, "Than why haven't you shot me?" She asked, "Are you worried Argo will shoot you?" Kirell asked.
"Why... why is the hate I felt from you fading? Why don't you hate me!" Balaam countered.
"Maybe because. If you're me. That means... you've suffered along side of me. You were there with me and I didn't realize it. You said you'd try to take away my pain and protect me... And maybe that's why you always forgave me when I did things to hurt you... Balaam... how can I hate you?" Kirell started to cry.
"I killed your best friend! I killed Philio! You do realize I've fucked up your chances of being revived right?" Balaam asked shaking his eyes turning back to normal.
"It's okay. Maybe it's time I just let things end. But stop the suffering. Just go in peace." Kirell admitted.
"NO DONT SAY THAT! You have your mom waiting for you! You have to live!" Balaam cried.
"But there's no way for me to be revived." Kirell awnsered.
"No... there's a way." Balaam walked over to them and hands Kirell his gun, "It's my gun as much as it's yours. Take my task Kirell. Fight as if your life depends on it. Both you and Argo must shoot me. Than you'll both be okay." Balaam tells her.
"But you will disappear!" Kirell cried.
"I fucked up your resurrection by killing Philio... you were suppose to kill him and accept your a murder. I'll be okay. Maybe Charon will let me return with you anyways this way." Balaam replied.
"Balaam..." Kirell cried, "I'm sorry." She tells him point the gun at Balaam, "Argo on the count of three we shoot him together." Kirell tells him.
"One. Two. Three. Shoot." Balaam softly smiled and Kirell and Argo both shoot Balaam.
"Balaam... good bye for now I guess." Kirell cried as she and Argo faded away.
Charon reappeared materializing next to Balaam and looked at him, "Well. You almost did it. Becoming my successor, but not quite. Hilde never got to give her letter to Kirell. So I guess Hilde isn't getting reborn, but I'll deliver her letter anyways so she can rest in peace so Imma send you to Kirell's mind with the letter. Off you go." Charon tapped Balaam with his foot making Balaam fade away.
The End
-Balaam Snaps By Kirell Breaking His Resolve-
(Balaam vs Kirell Netural Ending)
Goal: Balaam friendship at 0% and you don't send Philio to him everyone accepts you
Even as Kirell listened to Balaam she felt like puking. He was her? She was him? No way in no how! He's obviously gone crazy! She'll admit hearing about him having the same dreams as her freaked her out! But he killed Hilde and Philio she wasn't about to let him get away with that.
Kirell charged at Balaam again getting away from Argo to attack Balaam. Balaam laughed as he easily dodged her attacks and decided to run around Argo so Kirell hit Argo herself and kill him.
"Argo!!!" Kirell screamed.
"There maybe you don't think so badly of me huh?" Balaam was desperate and he knew it.
Kirell held Argo crying and Balaam felt guilty, "What am I doing???"
Kirell screamed a blood curling scream and swung her two by four at Balaam who just let her hit him.
Balaam collapsed into the ground and Kirell paused calming down.
"He didn't dodge!" She realized.
Charon materialized besides her, "He decided he didn't want to hurt you still. I just say his resolve to not hurt you is impressive." He explains.
"Balaam!" Kirell starts crying, "I don't understand! Why?!?" Kirell cried.
"Kirell... use my gun... to finish me off... it's the only way... let my task become yours. Fight as if your life depends on it." Balaam suggested, "Go back... you have to..." Balaam hands her his gun weakly.
Kirell is crying as she tasks his gun, "Balaam... but you'll die here." Kirell cried.
"I will always be apart of you... Even if you hate me... please go home Kirell... put this world... behind you... for good." Balaam weakly begged.
Kirell points his gun at him, "No ones getting resurrected cause of you." Kirell cried.
"Your mom... do it... for her..." Balaam tells him.
Kirell nodded slowly, "Thanks Balaam. I'm sorry." Kirell cried loading the gun.
"Me too. I'm sorry too." Balaam just smiled as Kirell shot him.
"I hate this! Why did it have to be like this! I never want to kill again!" Kirell swore as she faded away.
Charon just sighed, "What a mess. I suppose I should punish you for waisting my time but I don't think I will. I think I'm getting to soft. Welp back to my job than." Charon sighed and leaves.
The End
-Balaam Snaps By Kirell Breaking His Resolve-
(Balaam vs Kirell Worst end)
Goal: Make Hilde argue with you when your with her and Philio. Balaam friendship 0%
Philio had asked the worst fucking question at the worse possible time! Hilde was already suspicious of Kirell and was getting nervous though Kirell didn't know why.
Hilde seemed even more on edge when Kirell wasn't open to the discussion about wh to kill next. Seems Hilde felt threatened by Kirell and Argo and thinks they might kill her.
They started yelling at each other and arguing. Balaam showed up in the building.
"What!?! Where's Argo?" Hilde asked.
"I left him with a few bullets in his legs and arms. Still alive but maybe now he can't fight back. Seems I can't shoot him just yet. Like it just feels wrong. But you. I can shoot you." Balaam shots Hilde.
"Hilde!?!" Kirell shouted weakly.
"Please. You were just begging me to kill her. After all. She was looking pretty murderous. She might of even killed you if you weren't careful." Balaam explains.
"Hilde never want to kill me!" Kirell tells him.
"Oh yeah? Because Hilde didn't want me to die when I shot her but you." Balaam replied, "Now if I can only shoot this guy over here..." Balaam's eyes started turning red.
"I don't like those eyes of yours. They are evil." Philio admitted.
Kirell was unsure but jumped in front of Philio, "You won't shoot him." Kirell shooter.
"Don't worry I won't. All three of us are going to follow that compass now." Balaam smiled.
"You can't tell me what to do!" Kirell shouted.
Balaam shoots her foot, "Now... what was that Kirell? Shoot me again Balaam please! Sure I'll make sure you get to feel what it's like to get shot in the leg!" Balaam hissed.
Philio gets in front of Kirell, "Don't worry. I'll protect you!" He stood fearless between them.
"Ahaha! That's fine. Wait here than." Balaam heads out and comes back with Argo dragging him by the hair, "Hey lookie partder I got you a gift! Shall I torment him in front of you?" Balaam asked.
"Argo!!!" Kirell screamed in horror.
"I think it's best you do what I say for a change Kirell or it's going to be a bad day." Balaam shouted.
"Fine! I'll do it! I'm going!" Kirell followed her compass crying she finds a new gun that looks like Balaam's gun.
"Another gun... but why?" Kirell was confused.
"Ah there she is my yin to my yang." Balaam laughed, "Look Kirell we're a matching pair now!" He showed her his gun keeping on Argo's head.
"What the hell?!? Why is this gun just like yours?!?" Kirell cried.
"Still haven't figured out have you?" Balaam sighed, "Let's paint a good picture. About a little girl named Kirell and her inner demon me Balaam." Balaam laughed.
"What the fuck?" Kirell blinked.
Balaam begins telling her the story of how he's her and what they've been through and felt.
"And no matter what old Balaam does he's still a monster." He shrugged.
Kirell points her gun at him and he laughed, "I told you. Your my yin to my yang. Or was it the other way around. You know what it doesn't matter. Because you will never be able to kill me with that gun!" Balaam tells her.
"I want to kill you!" Kirell shouted, "And you want to kill me!" She fires but it doesn't work, "Why isn't working???" She looked confused.
Balaam throws Argo to the floor, "Seems old man stopped wishing to kill me. Now he just wants his pain to end. Why not grant his wish Kirell. I bet your gun will work on him." Balaam tells her.
"I'm not going to shoot Argo!" Kirell shouted.
"It's okay Kirell... I'm no use like this to you. I will die anyways... you can't save me. Please just kill me." Argo begged.
"No you need to kill Balaam and be reborn!" Kirell decided, "I lost Hilde but I won't lose you." Kirell decided.
"Actually Hilde has this letter..." Philio replied and Balaam picks up a rock and chucked into Philio's face.
"I don't need my gun to kill any of you." Balaam picked up a two by four.
Kirell backed away scared as she kept trying to shoot at him, "Philio run!" Kirell begged.
"Philio dodged out of the way, "Ohhh!!! I feel it that aura of yours changed. You know how dangerous I am and yet it's as if your above everything! Come on monk boy show me what you got!" Balaam tries killing Philio.
Philio runs around Argo and Balaam knocks him out, "Tsk. Basterds trying to make me complete my task. Find than how's this!" Balaam swings are Kirell and knocks her out.
"Kirell!!!" Philio shouted.
"I'll just let Argo die here. But Kirell and I have a very important date. Toodles." Balaam carries Kirell off.
Philio quickly tends to Argo's wounds, "You have to live. Kirell needs you!" Philio begged.
"Nghhhahh... Balaam... I'm not letting you get away with this." Argo slowly stands up.
It's the fifth day. Balaam has Kirell ties up to the hospital bed when she ways up.
"Morning beautiful." Balaam smiled and keeps shooting Kirell in the legs, "Ahhh I love the sound of people in pain. It make my pain so much lesser in comparison." Balaam admitted.
"Balaam Ahhhhh!" Kirell screamed as he shot her again.
"Listen beautiful. You want Balaam to stop right? You don't want Balaam to hate you. I can be nice to you if your nice." Balaam tells her.
"Fuck you." Kirell spat on him and he shoots her again.
"We're going to be at this for awhile huh. Might as well make myself comfortable." Balaam sits down and continues to torture and treat Kirell.
Thirty minutes pass and Kirell's has enough, "Please kill me. Please." Kirell begged.
"There we go. That's it. That's the feeling of helplessness and despair you made me feel every time you hated me and wanted me dead. But it's okay... I love you. After all. I am you. So how can I hate you??? Even if you hate me?" Balaam smiled putting her hands on her gun.
"Want to know how your gun works Kirell? It kills people who want to die. You want to die right?" Balaam smiled, "Than shoot yourself you cold cunt." He replied hatefully.
Kirell points the gun underneath her chin and cried, but than let's go.
"There there. You understand now don't you. I won't let you kill yourself. Not even here. Not even being separated from you. So Kirell. Take my gun instead. You want Balaam to be your friend again don't you? You want to beg for mercy and forgiveness right. Than all you gotta do is kill the guys that come into this room." Balaam tells her and takes her gun.
"I'll hold onto this for you." Balaam hides in the shadows.
Argo comes in with Philio, "Help!" Kirell begged them, "Balaam's in the room!" Kirell screamed.
Balaam fires at Philio and drops dead, "Ha! Take that you transcended mother fucker! I knew there was a way to beat you!" Balaam than grabs near by items to attack Argo.
Kirell starts firing Balaam's gun and he shoves Argo into the line of fire, "ARGO!!!"
Kirell dropped the gun and it teleports to Balaam, "Now..." he cocks it and points it to Kirell.
"Now I'll get my revenge... on the one person I want it most on." Balaam's eyes are red as Charon appeared behind Balaam and points a gun at his head.
Balaam freezes, "Charon... you seriously going to kill me?" Balaam hissed.
"Only if you kill Kirell. Make your choice." Charon warned.
"If this is the punishment for wasting your time so be it!" Balaam fires at Kirell killing her and Charon kills Balaam before he can become an undead.
"I guess I should punish you for wasting my time." Charon sighed, "You life ends here than Balaam. You will not rejoin with Kirell in any way shape or form. Sleep the eternal sleep in peace." Charon announced leaving.
"Well... this is depressing. I never thought my game would kill literally everyone in my own game. Next time I won't pull any special favors for anyone." Charon decided and leaves.
The End
-Balaam Snaps By Kirell Breaking His Resolve-
(Worst end 2)
Goal: Hilde has to attack you this time. Balaam's friendship 1% or higher
Balaam had tied Kirell to the bed, but it still felt wrong to hurt her like this. Soon Argo and Philio fell. It was her and him. Charon appeared behind Balaam as he aimed his gun at Kirell.
"Only if you kill Kirell. Make your choice." Charon warned.
Kirell was crying and looked hurt. Balaam seemed to calm down as he gave Kirell her gun back.
"Shoot me." Balaam ordered looking sad, "I can see why you hate me. I am nothing more than a monster. I didn't deserve a happy ending. I even tried to kill the one person I wanted to protect when I got back... I don't deserve a happy ending. Just kill me." Balaam sighed.
Kirell took the gun and fired into his heart crying, "Good bye Balaam. If you had one good time... it's your loyalty." Kirell tells him.
Balaam smiled as he fell to the floor dead.
Kirell begins to fade away and Charon looked at the mess.
"I guess I should punish you for wasting my time." Charon sighed, "You life ends here than Balaam. You will not rejoin with Kirell in any way shape or form. Sleep the eternal sleep in peace." Charon announced leaving.
The End
-Break Balaam's Resolve and Spirit by Leaving Him-
(Saddest Ending)
Goal: Balaam 50% or higher but Argo and Hilde don't trust you. Also don't send Philio to Balaam (mostly Argo doesn't need to trust you)
"It's all Argo's fault... And Hilde's..." Balaam cried hiding away with Philio crying, "I hate them! I hate them! I hate them so much!" Balaam cried thinking back to that day.
Argo had almost shot Balaam with his gun.
"Did Kirell manage to convince Argo?!? Or?" Balaam thinks.
Argo fires again getting Balaam again and Hilde grabbed Kirell to stop her from going to save Balaam.
"Hilde what the hell! BALAAM NO!!! Argo don't shoot DONT!" Kirell screamed bloody murder.
"Fuck... I don't have Charon here to help me. This is were it ends for me... Sorry Kirell. Sorry they forced you to watch this." Balaam thinks crying holding his shoulder.
"Any last words?" Argo tells Balaam.
"Yeah. See you in hell daddy." Balaam spat.
Argo paused, "Shoot him!" Hilde screamed Kirell bites Hilde making her let go.
"Balaam!" Kirell screamed.
"I..." Argo was hesitating but than pointed his gun at Balaam's face, "I guess I'll be seeing you in hell than." Argo fired but Kirell tackles him and gets shot.
"KIRELL NO!!!" Balaam shouted running over to her and points his gun at Argo, but flint chef, "Damit." He picked up Kirell and ran off.
Balaam laid Kirell in a hostipal he found and tried to treat her wounds, but it was no use.
"Fuck this can't be happening! You should of let me die!" Balaam screamed.
"If I did that. I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I love you..." she held his hand watching him cry.
"Dam it Kirell. I have nothing to live for if you don't come with me!" Balaam screamed in tears.
"You... have to... live..." Kirell went limp.
"Ahhhhhhhraghhh!!!" Balaam starts throwing things around.
Philio entered the room dodging a chair that crashed into the window, "Ph dear are you alright? What happened?" Philio asked worriedly.
Balaam howled an inhuman roar that shook the netherworld. His eyes were blood red. He looked at the doctor with killer intent.
Philio gently hugged him, "There there I know it's rough losing a love one, but I sure there's others who need you right now to be strong." He explained.
Balaam calmed down, "Kirell's mom... she'd want want me too..." Balaam realized.
"There there... it's going to be okay. I'm going to help you." Philio tells him and gives Balaam Kirell's compass, "It's yours now." He tells him.
"How... how???" Balaam asked.
"Oh silly Balaam. I've been watching over you and Kirell since the day we met." Philio smiled.
"STALKER!!!" Balaam jumped away and pointed at Philio.
"Honestly I didn't expect that reaction. Uh no! I promise I'm not! It's just Id talk to you Kirell so much that you'd come to the hospital to see me!" Philio explains.
"I... don't remember..." Balaam frowned, "But you must of known us well if you know the truth." Balaam pointed out.
"That you and Kirell are the same coin. Yup! I do! In fact I love Kirell almost as much as you do!" Philio admitted.
"Sounds like you are the boyfriend than. Well this got weird." Balaam admitted.
"It's funny... Charon said I'd remember you both the last day, but as soon as Kirell died. I just remembered." Philio admitted.
"Sounds like Charon's still looking out for me. He's a good friend." Balaam sighed in relief.
"So the question is what are you going to do?" Philio asked.
"You can't expect me to forgive them. But at the same time... I don't want to destroy the faith Kirell had in me to get us a happy ending. I think I just need some time... to properly mourn." Balaam sighed.
"That's understandable." Philio guarded the door.
Balaam held Kirell crying cursing how stupid he was and weak he was letting this happen.
Hilde sees Philio, "I thought I saw you run after Balaam is he in there?" Hilde asked.
"I dunno... why you two ask???" Philio looked at Argo who's hidding.
"Two? It's just me! Unless! Argo I told you not to follow me!" Hilde screamed.
"Fuck. Hilde and Argo is here. I can't face them not like this. Sorry Kirell. I have to leave you." Balaam kisses her lips and climbs out the window running off.
Charon materializes behind Philio tapping his back, "Huh? Oh Hi again!" Philio smiled.
"Balaam bailed. Kirell is inside if you two want to see her. Come in." Charon tells them.
Hilde starts crying and hugged the body, "I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Here. I wrote you a letter... It says. I'm truly sorry for getting you killed. I knew you loved Balaam but I still didn't believe he could change... and I'm a big idiot. Please don't leave me." Hilde cried on the blank paper.
"Hilde..." Argo felt horrible, "I too want to apologize. Seems I underestimated the love you had for him. I should of at least heard him out." Argo cried.
Charon whispers in Philio's war and he runs off, "Kirell left some messages for you both. She said. Please don't kill Balaam." Charon explains.
They look at each other frowning, "I know Kirell loves him but I'm not giving up being revived for him." Hilde explains.
"I wish I could grant her last wish, but Balaam needs to be taken down." Argo explains.
They begin looking for Balaam. Philio reaches Balaam first who's in a lot of pain.
"I have to focus... I have to complete Kirell and mines task. She's depending on me. I won't let her down." Balaam swore.
"Kirell's death should lead you somewhere. Let's go." Philio tells him.
Balaam followed the compass in pain wonder what it could possibly point him to. He opens a drawer to find a cute little doll.
"This... this is a doll that my friend er our friend made before the accident. I see. If I can find out friend... She can help me!" Balaam realizes and wears it around his neck, "Please give me strength right now. I have to save Kirell!" Balaam begged to the doll.
Charon is staying by Kirell's side waiting, "Balaam is fighting for you Kirell. He's alone. Vulnerable. Scared. But he's desire to be your partner even in the physical world is guiding him on the path of light and hope. Believe in him Kirell. Guide him." Charon tells her.
"There's Argo. I doubt it's him. I think it's Hilde. It's just my gut." Balaam sneaks over to Hilde and grabs her.
Argo cocks his gun, "There you are Balaam." He gets ready to fire.
"Hilde this belongs to my friend they made it to me!" Balaam throws her the doll and jumps out of the way pushing her away.
"Wahh!!" Hilde lands on her face and sees the doll, "This doll... Argo no wait don't shoot!" Hilde screamed running to Balaam who relaxed, "This doll! Where did you get it!" Hilde shouted.
"My partner. She lead me to it. It's our doll given to us by our friend." Balaam tells her.
"How can you use Kirell's compass!?! She's dead!" Hilde was confused.
"I'm her last hope. Kill me and she really will be dead." Balaam tells them.
"That's makes no sense!" Hilde shouted.
"I'm Kirell god dam it! Her other half. I'm everything she hates about herself. You get that?!?" Balaam shouted.
"I see... is that why when I killed Kirell I didn't finish my task. I thought it was her I had to kill, but it actually you." Argo pointed out.
"To be honest. I honestly thought you would just faded by now too. But I guess you were only ever to kill Kirell's worse self me." Balaam sighed, "Because I'm the one who's irredeemable in your eyes." Balaam explains.
"And you still are." Argo cocked his gun.
"I won't let you!" Hilde shouted protecting Balaam.
"He's a murder Hilde." Argo tells her.
"NO HES NOT BECAUSE THAT MEANS KIRELL IS MURDER AND I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THAT!" Hilde shouted in tears, "He's trying to change. I think Kirell changed him. And now he wants to be better for her! They are both changing because of each other! I won't let you hurt him! If you try! I'll kill you!" Hilde cried.
Charon hands Hilde a bat from his book and Argo points his gun at him, "Hilde. You know what to do... Argo. I will give you permission to shoot Hilde." Charon tells him.
"Are you crazy?!?" Argo shouted and Hilde swings at him.
Argo dodged, "I'm going to protect Balaam and Kirell! I'm sorry! I can't let you finish your task!!! Please understand! Your wrong!" Hilde cried swing at Argo.
Argo keeps dodging, "Hilde be careful! He can shoot you at any moment!" Balaam shouted.
Argo tried to shoot Balaam, but Philio gets in the way and smiled.
"Philio!?! Why?" Balaam grabbed him.
"Heh. It's what we do when we love people right Balaam?" Philio faded away.
"I don't even... I know how to react to that!?! Thanks..." Balaam blushed and sighed looking grateful.
"Rah!!! Rahhh!!!" Hilde kept swinging at Argo.
"Hilde! I want to help her but something tells me not to." Balaam thinks.
Hilde corners Argo until he has no choice but to shoot her.
"And you call me a monster." Balaam walls over to Argo.
"Before you go... you both have a message from Hilde." Charon walked over to him.
Argo tried to shoot but found out he couldn't, "I haven't gave you permission to shoot Balaam yet." Charon tells him.
Argo puts his gun down in defeat, "You win..." he sighed.
Balaam sees the compass point toward Argo, "Yeah. I know Kirell. Just one thing." Balaam punched Argo in face.
"NOW WILL YOU FUCKING LISTEN TO ME ASSHOLE!?!" Balaam shouted.
Argo rubbed his face in shock but nodded, "Jesus fucking Christ your so dam stubborn! Today. You killed to innocent people. Are you going to justify their lives like you did taking mine?" Balaam asked.
"No... I see them as tragedies that could of been advoided." Argo explains.
"That's fucking justifying their deaths! You don't want to admit it. But your soft old man. You can't handle hurting folk either. But your on some kind of high and mighty bullshit thinking you can just tell a fucking kid they can't justify their murders to protect themselves from pain!" Balaam shouted, "I want you to feel my pain!!! The pain you forced me to bare!!! Think of Kirell's sad mother who's never going to see her again or Hilde's parents never getting the good bye they needed! I want the pain to hurt you like it hurt me!" Balaam shouted grabbing Argo.
"But you know what. Nothing! NOTHING! Is more painful to me than almost losing my partner cause of you! Instead of her resurrection being what I needed to live. Our getting my own resurrection with her. Now I have to her resurrection count on me! I won't ever get to see her again cause of you! She's going to be taking the backseat when I get back there and that fucking scares me! I don't know if I can find the courage to keep hope like she can!" Balaam cried.
"But I'm not letting her die. And so I have something to tell you dad of mine. I hate you. I hate you with all my heart what you did today and what you did in my life. And despite that. I want you to go back with me and make things right! No taking the easy way out! If I have to suffer you have to suffer with me!" Balaam explains.
Argo sighed and nodded smiling a bit, "Want me to punch that smile off your face old man?" Balaam hissed.
"Hahaha." Argo starts crying, "If it'll help me repent for all I did. Yeah. Go head. Punch and kick me all you want!" Argo tells him.
Balaam hugged Argo digging his gun into his chest, "Let's go home dad. Together." Balaam begged.
Argo agree and on Charon's count they shoot each other and vanished. Charon returns to Kirell and let's her body vanish as well.
"Go on... Be with your friends in your own body. I'm sure you'll definitely surprise Balaam when he sees you." Charon smiles.
"I'm far too soft... I should go back to work. What a crazy day." Charon left.
The End
