Chapter 3 by Zebra Zebra

What's next?

Onwards...

You lost track of the number of times you jumped, each time it was different places… different times… although you did notice the same faces from time to time… And each time your big 44. saved the day, at times you even thought you saw gratitude on the faces of the people you saved.

As you came back to your senses once again, you found yourself in yet another unfamiliar place. The music that echoed through your arrives familiar and comforting by now. You looked down at your trusted 44. Magnum, a sense of familiarity giving you some comfort amidst the unknown.

At a distance, you spotted a man, his face etched with worry, trying to protect a group of children from a monstrous creature. Recognizing the sense of helplessness in the man's eyes, a spark of determination ignited within you. Without hesitation, you lifted your weapon and fired, saving the children and sending the beast fleeing into the darkness.

Strangely this time perhaps the billionth time you don't vanish instantly, pulled back to that terrible moment that the world ended. Gravely, the man approached you, his eyes filled with thankfulness. "You… you saved us all," he breathed, his voice choked with emotion. "Who are you?"

You hesitated, torn between revealing your secret and maintaining anonymity. You finally settled for a simple response, "Just a traveler," You responded, your gaze fixed on the endless horizon.

Overwhelmed by curiosity, the man probed you with a series of questions about your gun, about where you've been, and how you have always been there when things were dire. With each question, you realized that the man was trying to make sense of the whirlwind of events that had unfolded before him, just like you.

As the hard-earned sun dipped below the horizon, casting a beautiful, melancholic sky, you felt the familiar pull. Closing your eyes, you steeled yourself, preparing for the next journey into the unknown.

As you vanished into the ether once more, you couldn't help but wonder about the interconnected thread that bound you, the man, the children, and all the souls you had encountered along your journey.

And even as your mind reeled under the weight of the endless possibilities, one thing was certain - in a world torn apart by chaos and destruction, a silver lining flickered in the form of a magnum-wielding guardian angel. And through it all, the power of hope held steadfast, fueling your journey through time and space.

With each disappearance, the question of your purpose and the true nature of your journey lingered, creating a sense of enigma shrouding your persona, much like the veil of mystery that surrounds a comic book character with superpowers.

You continued on, a silent spectacle, with your trusted 44. Magnum in one hand, and the future of countless survivors in the other. The unraveling narrative of your own existence urged you forward, each disappearance and reappearance taking you closer to the secret at the core of your existence.Your heart echoed with the haunting tunes of the past, present, and future, weaving an intricate and enchanting tale, only you could narrate

Escaping the loop...
