Obvious solution to this problem: Break dance fight your way out

[TableSalt]

Taste your finger.
If it tastes disgusting, beat the stuff out of everything.

[The Murderous Cop]

shoot the flare to scare off the ghosts, everybody knows ghosts are afraid of the light
also check the truck's glove box

This and shoot the giant bearthing because clearly it needs to be set on fire
If you refuse that, attempt to befriend it with nearby food if there is any

[KristoB]

shoot one flare at giant thing
one in air for signals

[Space1255]

Get in a defensive stance
Prepare to learn street aikido, boy.

slap a ghost because you couldn't slap a zombie

Joshua tries to slap a ghost. His hand phases through the ghosts.

Taste your finger.
If it tastes disgusting, beat the stuff out of everything.

Joshua can't taste anything on his fingers. Does he even have taste buds anymore? Did the ghosts take them?

Obvious solution to this problem: Break dance fight your way out

Joshua tries to breakdance-disco-spinning-jumpkick Koschei in the face, but once again, Koschei dodges the attack.


(The flare causes the black and white to go away since it's lighting up the night you know)

shoot the flare to scare off the ghosts, everybody knows ghosts are afraid of the light
also check the truck's glove box

Joshua shoots the flare gun at the ghosts, causing them to run away!

Ghosts: "NOOOOO! NOOOOT THE LIIGGGHT, JOOSSSHUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGG GGGGGGGH!"



The flare continues flying into Joshua's house, where the zombies finally finish shuffling downstairs and manage to get ten steps out the front door!



....Right into the path of the flare, too. The zombies all light on fire and start screaming as they burn to death, which obviously isn't pretty. Joshua makes a run for the glove box and finds a newspaper article about Donald Annoying Orange being the new president of good ol 'Murica.



Koschei: "No! My ghosts are scared off and the zombies of my comrades are dead for the last time! My pet from hell will deal with you, Capitalist Swine!"

shoot one flare at giant thing

This and shoot the giant bearthing because clearly it needs to be set on fire

Joshua shoots a flare at the giant bear thingy, setting it on fire! (4 flares left)
Joshua reloads his flare gun and shoots another flare into the air, signalling for help! (3 flares left)
Giant Bear-Thingy is still alive and undeterred by being set on fire!
Joshua: "OH SHI---"



Giant Bear-Thingy rushes towards Joshua and backflip-kicks him WHILE STILL ON FIRE, sending him flying into the air!



Joshua makes a hard landing on the snow, smacking the back of his head onto it. Somehow, he isn't instantly killed. Only nearly killed, once again.



Joshua is too stunned from the pain to even get up or move his head slightly. The flaming bear-thingy slowly stomps towards him, shaking the ground with every step!



Joshua is kicked into the air once again, this time being set on fire!



Oh, and the giant manbear-thing is also jumping who knows how many feet into the air after Joshua so it can kick him down into the snow again. That's nice.



Joshua is slammed into the snow once again. The giant man-bear thingy makes a terrible landing on it's feet, spraining them. The giant bear-size-thingy lets out a high pitched roar, turns around, and starts running for the nearest ocean so it can put the fire out!

Sheer desperation has given Joshua the strength to stop, drop, and roll before the flames finish him off!



Now that the fire is out, all the light(and color) fades from the world. Joshua barely picks himself up off the ground, hollers in pain, and begins weeping softly.



Koschei the Deathless: "Useless! I'll have to finish you off myself, then!"



Joshua shoots Koschei in the face with the flaregun, setting him on fire!

Koschei: "MOTHER OF STALIN! IT BURNS! IT BURNS, YOU DECADENT CAPITALIST! I'LL BE BACK!"

Koschei flies off to the nearest ocean to douse himself out, giving Joshua time to recover before he strikes again!

Get in a defensive stance
Prepare to learn street aikido, boy.

Joshua is too injured to learn street aikido. The strength leaks out of his arms, and he collapses in the snow.

Holy hell how are you doing that

Joshua can't devour the spirits since he scared them away, by the way.

Joshua hears police sirens in the distance.

Use the newspaper you found to cover up the bleeding (Thanks, Annoying Orange!)

Scream in pain

[KristoB]

go to sirens and tell them you need an ambulance

[tber123]

Use the newspaper you found to cover up the bleeding (Thanks, Annoying Orange!)

Joshua crawls over to the newspaper and uses it to slow down the bleeding. He's now bleeding juust a little, instead of having the blood pour out like a waterfall.

Scream in pain

shuffle near the road for the po po to save you

go to sirens and tell them you need an ambulance

Screaming in pain, and slowly blacking out, Joshua crawls towards the sirens. The cops stop the car to avoid running Joshua over and start shouting into a radio for an ambulance to pick up Joshua.



Joshua blacks out.



Joshua wakes up in the hospital, where a nurse approaches him.

Nurse: "I was going to ask for your internal organs so your poor ass can pay for the price of health care, but it seems a mysterious benefactor has paid off the entire hospital bill. I'll have to ask the next poor starfish for HIS internal organs....... Anyways, you're free to go."



Joshua walks outside into the early light. He's been unconscious for who knows how long and it's still dark. A taxicab is waiting outside the hospital, also paid for by the mysterious benefactor. Joshua is dropped off at his house. The lead researcher for the MindHive Project begins to speak to Joshua.

BY THE WAY, JOSHUA? WE WERE THE MYSTERIOUS BENEFACTORS. DO YOU KNOW HOW HIGH YOUR HOSPITAL BILL WAS? WE HAD TO PAY THEM 2.5 MILLION JUST TO PATCH UP YOUR FLESH WOUNDS.



Home, sweet home. Joshua's hungry, he never bought groceries, the stores aren't open yet, he never got his family christmas presents, he forgot to get his mom the birthday present...

It is 5:00 AM on Thursday, December 22. On January 1, Joshua will be released from MindHive. Assuming Augmented Horizon's isn't lying.
Joshua is Healthy and wants to:

• Get something to eat because he's starving(Needs to buy groceries, too, but the stores aren't open yet)
• Buy his family christmas presents
• Get his mom a birthday present
• Get rid of Subject 6024's corpse (His rotting corpse is still there from when Koschei killed him, and the sight of a dead body is a bit suspicious, too!)

VendOS is GONE(STILL too busy building a wall on the Mexican Border)
Subject 6024 is STILL DEAD(Right in Joshua's living room!)
