Chapter 15
Fight
Bruce and Pneumono stood waiting for the god in front of the gates to heaven. "So… are we in heaven now?" Bruce asked St Peter awkwardly. "No, heaven is through those gates, this is the purgatory." He responded abruptly. Suddenly, a voice boomed through the closed gates, "I heard someone was looking for the god of bananas?" Bruce quickly realized that this was the god of bananas talking so he said, "Yeah, we are!" Then before Bruce could process what was happening, the gates were loudly smashed open. Bruce and Pneumono – who had been quiet for most of the time – went flying backwards as the gates opened and hit them in the faces. When Bruce was sluggishly getting up, a large wall of cloud came out from the floor, encasing the god, Bruce, Pneumono and St Peter in a 20-meter by 20-meter box. Bruce thought he heard a yell from outside, but it could have just been his ringing ears. "Hello, Bruce and Pneumono. I have been waiting for you to find me." The god spoke.
"That is kind of creepy" Pneumono interrupted
"I am a god! I see all that happens on Earth, including you and Bruce's plans to kill me." The god stated.
"So… does that mean you're going to kill us?" Pneumono quarried. "No, it means I will destroy you. I have already killed all the other mortals on Earth. You two just escaped my grasp" the god said before he sprinted towards Pneumono. Pneumono tried to jump out of the way, but it was too late. The god ran full speed into Pneumono. Flying and hitting the wall at the back, Pneumono struggled to get up. Bruce ran at the god with his hand clenched in a tight fist while the god was still distracted. Bruce tried to punch the god with all his might, but the god still managed to step out of the way. Bruce stood upright and moved out of the way because he knew that the god would abuse the opportunity to punch Bruce in the back. Bruce ran over to Pneumono who was lying on the floor in pain. "Are you okay?" Bruce asked.
"Why would I be okay!? I'm pretty sure my leg is broken!" Pneumono exclaimed angrily. Bruce examined Pneumono's leg, Bruce was no doctor, but he knew that legs weren't meant to bend over like that. "Please don't die, or else I will be the only human on Earth that is left alive, but I am unable to fight, you need to kill the god," Pneumono said.
"Okay, I won't let the god get the best of me, unlike last time," Bruce responded as he remembered that he still had the knife hanging by his belt. He drew it like a sword, even though it was just a bloodstained cooking knife. As Bruce walked over to the god holding the knife, he realized that he was trembling with fear. He can't kill a god by himself. Then suddenly, a knife appeared through the clouds from outside the box. I cut a large rectangle of clouds out of the wall. The clouds cut considerably easily considering how hard they were when Bruce walked on them. Possibly because of condensed air. Wait who said that?! When the knife finished cutting, a rectangle of clouds fell out of the wall revealing two humans, one holding a knife.
