The chapter starts with a cannibal monster killing a man as it claims his soul eating it getting stronger as it spots a kid watching the kid runs quickly but the demon caught it faster before it could slash it yurto and Suzume shows up standing at the steps the cannibal demon sticks it's tounge out yurto:now let's end this together. She nods as they both attack together Suzume pulls his sword swinging it in circles as yurto gets ready to fight as the demon is about to attack yurto fights it first and throws a powerful punch sending it against the walls hard but makes yurto's hand bleed yurto:Damm it! I man oh shucks golly! Suzume steps in fighting the monster as it creates dark tentacles to attack as she slashes it cutting it as she slahes it as yurto grabs the soul letting it go yurto:may God guide you. They both call Tek Tek; what's up? How's it going pals? Yurto:we just finished collecting the evil souls. And let the innocent souls free. Tek :good to know. However your next mission coming up will not bad as easy you think. So be wise and be as careful as possible. Suzume: what's the problem? Tek:if you fail to defeat this one and fail to collect her soul as well as freeing the lives that have been taken away all the souls you collected so far will be lost. And have to start over from scratch again. Yurto:ok. I understand. Tek;great! Now come home. They both then obey Suzume:I actually enjoy fighting. Been a while since I had that much fun. Yurto:yeah? Well I'm just glad that you're happy. He starts reading his book of his life Suzume: your always into none tech related stuff. Yurto:eh. I only use a phone for texting and calls for emergencys. I just hope what I'm trying to do will work. Suzume: it will. Trust me babe. I know it won't be as easy as you hope but it'll take time of course. Now let's go. Tek also wanted to show us something. Then shows commercial that Tek made talking in the commercial Tek:hey you! Yes I'm talking to you the moron Wearing shoulder pads that's watching this screen. Are you into violence and theft and getting handsy? Of course you do! But what if I tell you that there's a place you can go where there's none of that? And you won't feel uneasy or worried? Then step right up to the happy school the Christian school and our pal yurto Reyes and we have everything you need it even our own Bible study classroom then shows zora falling asleep on the table and the classroom is destroyed and very crooked then shows everyone arguing and fighting even cussing but adds the (beep) sound Tek: isn't it just wonderful? Even the cafeteria. It then shows hiria using a hot pan to hit zora as they continue fighting each other as Asher and haggai tries to pull them both away as hiria quickly finds a rotisserie basket and splashes it on them as they continue fighting showing Asher the only one that's normal on his knees praying to God in the background Tek:call now for the Christain school the happy school! Then shows a text that says Call now!! Or don't! I don't care! We still don't have a working phone! No refunds Tek turns off the tv Tek;so what do you think? Suzume: I'm sorry but what the fuck was that? Yurto: language! And Tek. I really appreciate what you doing. Really, I am.. but um.. the tone is a bit off a little. The whole point of this is to make people want to go at the school, and also it was violent and not my favorite. And as for the commercial well it's uh.... Suzume;A disaster! You didn't explain what were doing for the sake of redemption, which is the whole fucking point. Yurto; she's right. It should be positive and more friendly that makes people want to be here. And we should be nice. Zora:I know! Suzume : what? Zora;why not we say something like if you come here you'll be famous and have a harem and other fun stuff like that. Suzume: we're not making a any weird fan service commercial! Zora;why? Sexy women sells don't it? Just have one sexy women in the screen and you'll see people going crazy enough to join this joint. Hiria scrolls his phone talking behind him hiria:the whole point of this school is to have people here learn about how to seek forgiveness from Jesus and how to cut ties with your sins and redeeming yourself. Not to get freaky with different types of women. Plus not very Christiany at all. Zora: come on! No one will care unless we add some spices to the mix! Hiria argues back hiria:that so called spice to the mix is the only thing that'll make sinners care about women sexy shit and it'll be their only reason for wanting to stay at the school. We're trying to redeem people and repent not to have their lust even worst. Aj:if I may why not force them? Hyde:I believe that's not how it works. They have to choose to do this. That's the whole point. Suzume:thank you Hyde. See? Even they understand. Zora:fine! Can we at least watch anime? Hiria:if it's so you can lust at anime characters no thanks. Zora: but you do! Hiria; only because of the fight scenes and plot. Not for the fan service and shit. Yurto: I've got a good feeling that this will work. I believe it. Suzume:yes honey of course. Yurto starts singing as he goes outside to sing all around the chaos city titled follow the light YURTO]
(With a wide, toothy grin)
Look around at the faces, so heavy and gray
Like they're trapped in a storm that won't go away!
But I've got the spark, and I've got the light
To turn every "maybe" to "everything's right!"
With a little bit of faith and a heart open wide
We can bring all these souls to the Savior's side!
[SUZUME]
(Sighing, crossing her arms)
Yurto, honey, stop. Look at where we are.
You're reaching for a sun that's a dying star.
They don't want a sermon, they don't want the "Way"
They'll laugh in your face at the end of the day.
It's a beautiful thought, but it's doomed from the start...
[YURTO]
(Spinning her around)
Oh, Suzume! That's just a lack in your heart!
If we sing it out loud, if we show them the love
They'll look past the dirt to the Father above!
We can do this! I know it! Just wait and you'll see!
[HIRIA]
(Leaning against a wall, voice low and cynical)
Little brother, you're living a sheer fantasy.
Do you think they care? Do you think they'll repent?
Their time here is wasted, their spirits are spent.
Nobody's looking for "saving" or "grace"
They'd rather just spit in a holy man's face.
Redemption? A joke. A pipe dream. A lie.
They're happy to rot till the day that they die.
[YURTO]
(Jumping onto a table, undeterred)
But Hiria! That's why we've gotta try harder!
To stoke up the fire and fan every arbor!
One soul at a time, we'll rebuild the foundation
A chorus of joy for the whole of creation!
(Shouting to a passing crowd)
Come on, everyone! He's waiting for you! You gotta follow the light follow the light don't you run from the fight run towards the light come out a follow the light!
[SUZUME]
(To Hiria)
He's gonna get hurt.
[HIRIA]
(To Suzume)
Yeah, what else is new?
[YURTO]
(Grand finale, belting out)
So keep up the tempo! Keep up the cheer!
There isn't a shadow that faith cannot clear!
We can do this!
We'll prove this!
The world's gonna change!
Even if everyone thinks that we're strange!
Heaven is waiting! The door's open wide!
Who's gonna step to the sunny side?!You gotta follow the light follow the light don't you run from the fight run towards the light come out a follow the light!
(Yurto strikes a pose. Suzume puts her face in her hands. Hiria just shakes his head.) Zora tries to find girls to get freaky zora:time for some fun- hiria punches his face as zora gets mad as they continue fighting each other zora:hey! Let me talk to her! Just want her number! Hiria:more like being a pervert! Zora: what? It's good shit! Hiria: your beyond insane. Why are you like this? Haggai grabs him from behind as zora tries to free himself Tek: anyway yurto, Suzume. I got a mission for you. Yurto: what is it? Tek; there's a witch that needs to be stopped after taking away the lives of many innocents. Also is a mage. It's Up to save them especially to end them. I mean show them justice. Yurto:got it. Babe let's go. She nods as follows him yurto;hiria one thing...even though I always let you do your thing, please watch over the school until we come back. Hiria:sure....whatever. they both leave together hiria:look at those two. So annoying. Leaving me in charge. Asher:well your the older brother, you should have responsibility, Anyway. He walks away and he starts drinking Asher: drinking isn't always going to solve problems. Tek: I'm gonna head out. Asher:why? Tek:Been a while since I've been here. Just going out to explore. Meanwhile back at the Kingdom shows herod sitting on a chair spinning around with joy herod:ah. Nothing makes me more happy than having everyone at my mercy even after winning war world 3. I work real hard to rule the world I'm sure my ancestor king herod would be very proud if only he could see how much I succeeded today. I work very hard to get this close and now here I am. He walks around as people and news reporters asks them questions one of them asking what they're going to do about loose power and and has no food and water as he replies that everything is going to be ok and for now on he's going to bring everything back but in his control as he goes inside his large thorne room as he sees one of his partners angry herod: what got you so mad about? Caine: Look! He shows herod a tablet of people starting to visit at the Christian school heros:so they think that they can decide to disobey their God and go full rebellion. Trying to influence my followers to betray me and walk out on me so they can obey ...Jesus! I hate that name. Caine:so do I. Herod:I won't forgive him . He's the reason why my ancestor died! Getting replaced by Jesus! JESUS. and now he has sent my followers to betray me and start this school to teach people to disobey the commandments I, their God made for them so they won't obey! People with worship me not Betray me and worship anygod other than me! I won't let theses gods to replace me. He calms down slowly herod: but you know we shouldn't get so angry. Caine:why? Herod: because it's only like 4 people at the school. No one cares about God and Jesus. They're too busy focusing on me. I shouldn't worry. Because I still have my followers and if they all betray me I'll remind them not to dare do so. Caine:can I kill them? Herod:not yet. But If they become a bigger problem than anticipated then we will show them who their God is. And that I am not a merciful one either. Caine:by the way.. he's not the only one who's our problem. Herod:what? Who else is there? Someone who's rage baiting us? Caine:a angel. And the demon of fear. Herod gets angry gripping his fist ✊ until they bleed as he smiles herod: what did you say? You mean to tell me that a angel and Tek is also at the Christian school and that's not the first FUCKING THING YOU TOLD ME?! He grabs his collar angry he snatches the tablet and sees Tek strolling around the city as he gets angry herod:I still can't believe that asshole is back! This song, titled "Throne of Bone," follows the structure of "Stayed Gone" from Hazbin Hotel. It features Herod, a modern, tyrannical descendant of the biblical king, and Tek, a demon of fear who has returned after a long absence to reclaim his spot as the "big bad."
Song: Throne of Bone
(Tempo: Fast, swing-style big band/electro-swing)
[SCENE: HEROD stands in a high-tech throne room, fuming as he watches news reports of TEK's return.]
HEROD:
That coward is back!
I thought I'd buried him under the track!
It's been decades! Two millenniums since my name was law,
And now this... glitch is crawling back with his shadow and claw?
(To his guards)
Things have changed since he slithered away, he starts walking out as Cain smiles evily herod sings again singing
I'm the king of the carnage, I'm the lord of the fray!
I need to remind them who truly holds the crown,
Before this "fear demon" burns my empire down!
(HEROD turns on a massive broadcast system, addressing his kingdom)
HEROD:
Top of the hour! Let's discuss a certain "has-been,"
A shadow in the corner, a relic of sin.
Did anybody miss him? Did anybody care?
Or was it just the stench of rot hanging in the air? Then shows bright light texts that says loser to Tek
He's a loser! A fossil! I don't mean to sound cruel, then shows him eating the movie theaters then shows him holding the cameras as he relaxes then shows him throwing knives at a picture of Tek herod sings again
But the demon of fear is a prick a good for nothing nobody so anyone who watches this don't bother giving a damn about him
You're looking at a dynasty, a bloodline of gold,then shows him kicks a box of stuff trash Tek likes doing even his weapons and Amor as it shows herod grabs a new tv that says demons can suck it! While still singing herod:
He's the bedtime story that's getting quite old! Then shows him walking at a red carpet in a premisenwith people all round him taking pictures of him with two news reporters herod:the world's been better off antichrist. Where has Tek been? He snatches the mic from the news reporter saying herod:who gives a shit?! Then Suddenly, the screens flicker. A static-heavy, distorted voice cuts in.]
TEK:
Salutations!
Good to be back on the stage!
Yes, I know it's been a while since a king felt such rage.
The kingdom is trembling!
HEROD:
(Spoken) What a dated voice!
TEK:
Instead of a tyrant with no real choice!
Is Herod insecure? Pursuing a name?
Clinging to a ghost for a sliver of fame?
HEROD:
(Spoken) Ignore his chirping!
TEK:
Every day he's got a new decree!
But tell me, dear Herod... do you still fear me? Herod:I am a god at high! He's the shit that is trash below hell! As Tek sings a he stand at a old stage with magic trumpets all around him and a piano making music on it's own Tek:
Is Herod as strong as his lineage claims?
Or is he just a coward playing petty games?
HEROD:
(Spoken) Oh, please!
TEK:
And here's the salt on the open wound:
He asked for my help when his father was doomed! He shows then a paper contract 📜 as herod stands trying to hide it but fails
HEROD:
(Spoken) H-hold on!
TEK:
I said no, and now he's pissy!
That's the history!
HEROD:
(Screaming)
You ancient freak! I'll show you true agony!
TEK:
(Laughing)
Uh oh! The crown is slipping, Herod!
HEROD:
I'll destroy you! You little—!
TEK:
(Spoken) I'm afraid you've lost your grip.
(The music shifts into a dark, grand, orchestral reprise, exactly like Alastor's finale.)
TEK:
(Singing with a sinister, filtered echo) As he slowly transformed into a larger demon looking like the creepy Poppy playtime and it's demonic designs
Let's begin...
I'm gonna make you wish...
That I'd stayed gone!
Lock all your doors...
When I'm done... As he sings his voice slowly sounds deep and distorted voice glitching
Your little reign...
Will have reached its dawn!
Oh, this will be... FUN!
(TEK lets out a distorted, demonic laugh as the screens explode into static, leaving HEROD alone in the dark.)
HEROD:
(Whispering)
Fuuuuuuck! IT'S NOT FAIR! meanwhile a woman named Ginna which is a inspired name for gomer even though it doesn't mean that in Japanese looking like Serena from Pokemon sits at a couch watches the new broadcast of herod vs Tek as she sees a whole better commercial of hiria and haggai and AJ Hyde zora and Asher Tek makes a whole better commercial as she sees hiria she instantly remembers him when they were kids Ginna:that boy...no it couldn't be..hiria?
