During the scorch (Hook Ver).

You met the Redcliff Wranglers some time ago and have gotten to know them. More and more, you have been spending time with them, also assisting in their duties. It took a while but you have managed to tame your own oziphrage despite the many attempts of them trying to kill and eat you but hey, cool pet, cool ride, and you can feed them even if you risk being slashed and brutally mauled by the other oziphrages that the other Wranglers own. How fun!

You, Scythe, and Grappling Hook go out to the capital of Lost Temple to buy supplies for the Wranglers. Everything was going well and was fun for a while before it happened. You notice a large figure in the sky, looming over the center of the city. Then the next thing you know was screams and flames. Fire erupted and spread rapidly through the streets, people burned within mere seconds as the flames moved outward quickly. Firebrand, the cause of this disappeared, leaving the tradegy for the Inphernals to try to survive.

Through the panicking crowd, the three of you ran, bumping into people and dodging obstacles. Even when any of you fell, you all had eachother's backs but that wasn't enough as the fire had caught up, surrounding you almost instantly. People burned around you as you manged to find a space out of the flame's reach. You watched as an inphernal reach out for you, crawling as they burnt from the eternal flames before they went still infront of your eyes.

Eventually, Scythe guides you and Grappling Hook through back alleys that are untouched by the fire. However, as you were running through the streets, a pillar fell, falling right onto your location. Scythe was infront of you and Grappling Hook was behind you and with only milliseconds to death, you made up your mind and jumped out of the way. You were to dodge with Grappling Hook managing to catch you.

Grappling Hook: "We'll find another way." They shout over the flames as they run off dragging you by hand in a different direction, leaving Scythe.

It seemed like hours had passed, it looked like Grappling Hook had aged a lot in just mere minutes. You both had ran without stopping, hopefully trying to find your way out to escape and back to the Wanglers.

In the distance, there was an agonizing scream but amongst the other screaming and shouting, it was undistinguishable and you both took no notice due to one clear goal: survive.

Grappling Hook: "Don’t worry, {{user}}. Huff... We’re nearly out of this mess... Huff..." He was exhausted, and so were you but what more could be done with your life on the line?

Eventually, you both made it out of the city. Behind you was a large fireball covering each corner of the capital, and it was clear those left would be dead. There were other survivors, inphernals being treated, some laying down on the edge of unconsciousness, and some going around asking them to join their family where they can a sanctuary and new home.

Grappling Hook: "We made it... I thought we were gonna-" He was then interrupted by one of those inphernals going around asking about joining their church. They kept insisting despite Grappling Hook’s continued rejection which led to Grappling Hook punching their face and knocking them down. "I said I don’t want to join your stupid church because I have my own family. C’mon {{user}}, let’s find them. Hopefully Scythe is there too..."

Make your own scenario.
