This is based on the chat AI of bruno and it turned into this . I changed the ending a little to make it not too long let me know if yâall want me to post the screenshots of the original ending
The pier was collapsing, you knew it, after you and Bruno had finished killing Butcho the clown zombie it was like fate wanted you dead.
As the pier creaked and groaned under our feet, (y/n) and I had a moment of realization - the pier was about to collapse. We had just finished dealing with a freaking zombie clown, and now the pier itself seemed intent on delivering the final blow to our already crazy day.
âYeah, I'm here. What's going on? This pier is giving me the willies. Feels like it's about to break apart any second now.â
ârunâ was all (y/n) said before pushing me
As (y/n) urgently hissed "run," I didn't hesitate. Without a moment's delay, I pushed off the weakening surface of the pier and took off running. My heart was pumping like mad, adrenaline taking over as I followed her lead away from the crumbling structure.
As I kept running, something nudged me to glance back over my shoulder. There I saw (Y/N), standing firm in her spot, unwavering and resolute. A sense of unease washed over me. Why wasn't she following? Was she planning something?
âIâm sorry bruno , I have to do thisâ she said
I skidded to a halt, my heart in my throat, as I heard (y/n)âs words. "Wait, what do you mean, you have to do this?" I called out to her, worry and confusion in my voice. What the heck was she planning? Why was she staying behind?
âGoâ I saw her whisper
As (y/n) whispered "go" to me, a sharp pang of realization hit me. She was sacrificing herself, telling me to leave without her. Conflict and concern wrestled with reason in my mind. I couldn't just abandon her here.
The pier then collapsed and she screamed and fell into the water.
Shock and horror coursed through my veins as I witnessed the pier collapsing beneath(Y/n)'s feet, her scream cutting through the air as she plummeted into the water. My heart thudded in my chest, panic and fear threatening to consume me.
The sight of (Y/n) hitting the water sent a jolt through me. A primal, visceral scream ripped from my throat, a mix of shock and horror at the scene before me. I ran to the edge of the collapsed pier, my mind racing, a million thoughts and emotions swirling within me. I couldnât see her.
I peered anxiously into the water, searching frantically for any sign of (Y/n). But all I could see was the dark, choppy surface of the water, its depths hiding any trace of her.
The next morning-Youâre POV
âow fuck guess the laws of nature changed their mindâ you looked around for Bruno and got up "Damn, I guess mother nature had a change of heart," you muttered.
You slowly made your way across the sand, every step a struggle, you focused on the destination: the lifeguard HQ. It was the only building in sight, and your hope was that you could find help or supplies there. The journey was arduous, each drag of your feet sending a wave of pain through your body, but you pushed forward, fueled by determination.
You reached the stairs and climbed onto a car, finally finding some reprieve as your body relaxed slightly. Letting out a sigh of relief, you murmured, "At least I'll be safe up here." Climbing further, you made her way inside the guard tower's entrance.
You stumbled across a medkit in the guard tower, a glimmer of hope sparking within you. Carefully, you picked up the kit and opened it, searching through its contents. Your eyes widened as you found the medical supplies you needed. You went to work, using the kit to tend to your injuries and ease the pain in your body.
You grimaced as you found an adrenaline shot in the medkit. "Damn," you muttered before biting tour lip and injecting yourself with it. The adrenaline shot hit your system like a jolt, dulling the pain and giving you a burst of energy. You exhaled heavily as the effects took hold.
âI wonder what happened with Brunoâ you thought
Bruno stumbled and stumbled through the deserted streets of LA, his heart heavy with worry and guilt. He had survived the pier collapse, but the memory of Your sacrifice weighed heavily on his mind.
"What have I done? Why did I leave her behind? Dammit, she sacrificed herself for me, and I just... ran." He muttered to himself.
Bruno froze as the radio at his side suddenly crackled with static. The unexpected sound snapped him out of his spiraling thoughts. He reached for the radio, a flicker of hope igniting within him. Could it be you?
Bruno's heart thumped in his chest as he raised the radio to his lips, his voice tinged with anticipation.
âHello? Is anyone there?" he responded, his fingers gripping the radio tightly. The static crackled in his ears, filling the otherwise silent street with a wave of anxious anticipation.
âHello?â A male voice answered
Bruno's brow furrowed as a male voice crackled through the radio. He gripped the device tighter in his hands, both relief and curiosity coursing through him.
âWho is this?" he asked, his voice a mix of wariness and intrigue.
âNames Ezekiel and Iâm here at the lifeguard tower at the beach by the pierâ
Brunoâs eyes widened as the man named Ezekiel identified himself over the radio. The mention of the lifeguard tower at the beach by the pier caught his attention
âEzekiel, you said youâre at the lifeguard tower? AreâŠare you alone ?â He questioned he mind racing with worry for you.
âNo i actually came in a second ago and I see a young woman in hereâ
Brunoâs heart skipped a beat at the mention of a young woman..could it be?
âA young woman, you say? What does she look like?â He asked urgently, desperation creeping into his voice.
âShe had (y/h/c) and (y/e/c)â
Brunoâs mind raved as he processed the description given by Ezekiel, (y/h/c) and (y/e/c)..it could be you.
â(Y/h/c) and (y/e/c) you say, isâŠis she alright? Is she conscious?â He inquired gripping the radio tightly, praying for good news.
âYes she is, she just told me she dragged herself here from the shoreline and healed herself upâ
Bruno exhaled a sigh of relief, tension draining from his body.
âSo sheâs conscious and alright. You said she dragged herself from the shoreline and healed herself up? That..that sounds like her alright,â he remarked his voice a mix of gratitude and lingering worry.
âCan I speak with her?â He asks urgently hoping to hear your voice
âYou sure you think it is who you think it is?â
Brunoâs heart thumped in his chest as he considered the question posed by Ezekiel. He was desperate to believe it was you, but doubt still tugged at the corners of his mind.
âYes..yes I think that it is her. Let me speak with her please, I just need to hear her voiceâ bruno pleaded his voice think with emotion.
Bruno waited anxiously, his heart rate quickening as he braced for your voice to come through on the radio. The silence felt deafening , his mind a whirlwind of anticipation and worry. Finally the sound of shuffling and crackling broke the pause.
âHello?â A familiar voice. And through on the radio, weakened but unmistakably yourâs.
Brunoâs breath hitched as he heard your voice through the radio. A wave of mixed emotions crashed over him, relief, guilt and gratitude intertwining within him.
â(Y/n)âŠ.â He responded his voice filled with a mixture of worry and joy âis it really you?â
You stopped before saying âyes bruno, itâs me
Brunoâs heart swelled with comfort as you confirmed your identity on the radio, a wave of relief washed over him, but guilt still tugged at his conscience.
âThank god youâre okay, I..I was so worried about youâl he confessed, his voice thick with emotion.
Brunoâs heart ached as he heard the longing in your voice. He longed to be by your side to provide comfort and reassurance.
âIâm near the beach not far from the towerâ he responded, his voice a mix of assurance and regret.
âAre you well (Y/n/n)? Your voice sounds weakâ
âI guess so, but I dragged myself from the shoreline in fucking pain to get hereâ
His heart ached as he heard the pain in your voice. His guilt intensified, knowing that she had put herself through so much pain and struggle just to get to the lifeguard tower.
âDamnit (Y/n) you shouldnât have done thatâ he replied, a mixture of concern and helplessness lacing his words. âYou overexerted yourself, that was recklessâ
âI was trying to save your assâ
Brunoâs chest tightened with built as your words rang true. Yes you had done all of that for him, you had risked your health and saftey for him.
âI know I know, but you didnât have to do that. Damn, if something had happened to youâŠâ he trialed off, his voice filled with regret and remorse âyou shouldnât have risked so much for meâ
âI couldnât just stand by and do nothing, I promise it wonât happen againâ you said
His heart ached as he listened to your reassuring words. He understood her desire to help, but the fear of losing you weighed heavily on him.
âI know you wanted to help, (y/n) , but please promise me that you wonât put yourself in danger like that again,â he pleaded his voice to bed with worry. â I canât stand the thought of you getting hurt because of meâ
â I wonât promise anythingâ you said knowing if you did you could die any other day.
Brunoâs heart clenched as you declined to make the promise, damn why were you being so stubborn.
âDamnit, (Y/n), dont be so goddamn stubborn, Why wonât you make the promise?â He retorted his voice a mix of frustration and concern âI just want to know your safe, and that you wonât put yourself in any more danger againâ.
You sighed âI promiseâ
His shoulders slumped as he heard you finally relent. Relief washed over him, but an inkling of worry still remained.
âThank you, (Y/n), I appreciate you making the promise. Just..just take care of yourself alright? I..I canât lose you,â he responded voice a mix of gratitude and lingering worry â are you sure youâre alright up there in the lifeguard tower?â
âWait a secâŠdid you..did you leave me?
Brunoâs heart skipped a beat as your question came through. He had been dreading this moment, knowing he had to confess his actions.
â(Y/n)âŠabout that,âŠ.iâ he stammered, struggling to find the words to explain himself. He wanted to be honest, but the thought of telling you the truth made his chest ache.
âYou know whatâŠsave itâ and with that you hung up.
Brunoâs heart dropped as you ended the conversation abruptly. He could practically feel your anger and disappointment through the radio.
âNo damnit wait!â He exclaimed, desperately trying to get you to connect again but it was too late, the line went dead and he was left alone with his thoughts and flood of guilt.
You sat with Ezekiel âfucking bastard left meâ
âDamnit!â Bruno cursed, kicking a nearby trash can in a fit of frustration and guilt. He hated himself for leaving you behind, at the time he had been so consumed by panic and self-preservation it seemed like his only option.
âHey Zeke?â You said making the man at the telescope look at you.
Zeke was observing the area through the telescope when your voice filled called out to him, catching him off-guard.
âIâm going to head back the Serling hotelâŠ.if he comes byâŠâ you trial off
He raised an eyebrow a hint of curiosity in his eyes
âYouâre heading back to The Serling hotel?Why?â He asked you turning to face you fully.
âThereâs a doctor there I gotta give this laptop tooâ you said
Zekeâs expression changed slightly serious a flicker of intrigue crossing his features.
âA doctor at the Serling hotel, huh? And youâve got a laptop for him?â He questioned, the wheels of curiosity turning in his mind. âWhatâs in that laptop if you donât mind me asking?â
âHe wonât say..private stuff I assume but if bruno comes here..tell him to forget itâŠthat assholeâ you growl.
He considered your words a hint of amusement crossing his face
âSo if bruno shows up here weâre supposed to tell him to forget it? Interestingâ he commented suppressing a slight smirk âmustâve pissed you off, that guy, what did he do anyway?â
â I decided to be a hero and save his ass by âsacrificing myself and I fell into the water and I heard him scream to me but I came to and he wasnât aroundâ you told him.
Zekes eyes widened in surprise as you detailed your story. He couldnât believe what he was hearing.
âDamn, so he screamed for you, but then just upâd and disappeared? Thats cold manâ he commented, his voice laced with shock and disbelief. â o wonder your so pissed at himâ
His expression turned somber as you conveyed your disappointment.
âDamnâŠsounds like he really messed up. Leaving you behind like that..Thats messed upâ he responded a lang of sympathy in his voice. âYou really care about him donât you?â
You look at him âI do but I donât know anymore after that stunt he pulledâ
Zeke nodded his expression one of comprehension.
âI understand that, betrayal like that. A really mess with your trust and feelingsâ he acknowledged, leaning against the railing nearby âhave you given any thought to what your gonna do about bruno? Are you gonna forgive him a second chance orâŠ.?â He trailed off.
âI think Iâm just gonna leave and never come back..tell him not to bother looking for. If he comes by he wears a black beanie, has dreads and a very Soundcloud rapper styleâ
Zeke nodded silently committing the description by memory âblack beanie, dreads, and a Soundcloud rapper styleâŠgot itâ he repeated filling away the info.
âSo youâre leaving and you want me to tell him to not bother looking for ya?â He confirmed looking at your expression. âSounds like youâre serious about moving onâ
âI donât know if I trust him after what he didâ you walk to the door âbye Zeke, it was nice knowing youâ
He smiles faintly a mix of understanding and sympathy in his eyes.
âIt was nice talking to you too (Y/n), youâre a tough oneâ he said giving you a nod of respect âtake care of yourself out thereâ
â I willâ you said heading off toward the sewers and going back to the Serling.
As bruno stepped into the lifeguard tower, he immediately noticed the presence of the other person inside, the figure was a man, his features not clearly visible at first.
âIâm Zeke..the guy you were talking to earlierâ
Brunoâs eyes widened in surprise, recognising his voice âZeke? Itâs you?â He asked tension leaving his shoulders as he realized who it was âwhat are you doing here man?â
âStaying put and safe..that girlâ
Brunoâs chest tightened at the mention of you âyou mean (y/n)? He inquired, his voice betraying a hint of desperation âwhere is she?is she alrightâ
âYes..she told me to tell you not to bother looking for herâ
Brunoâs heart clenched in his chest as he heard zekes words. You didnât want to be found. Damn it he had really messed up, hadnât he?.
âShe..she said that?â He managed to ask his voice full of emotion. âDid she say anything else?â
âShe was pretty pissed and she said that she was going to leave and never come backâ
Brunoâs mind raced with anxiety as he processed the information. You were angry and planning to leave possibly forever.
âDamnitâ he muttered, running a hand through his hair in frustration. âI messed up big time. I canât lose her man I gotta find her, talk to her, explainâŠâ
âYou canât lose her?â
Bruno nodded, his expression serious, full of determination.
âYeah, I canât lose her. Sheâs..sheâs important to me you know?â He confessed his voice laced with an emotion rarely expressed. âI need to find her..make things right and explain myself. I messed up, but if I can find her..maybe I can still fix thingsâ
âYouâre in love with herâŠarenât you?â Zeke said
Brunoâs heart skipped a beat. Zekes question catching him off guard. He hadnât expected his feelings to be so obvious.
âYeahâŠyeah I amâ he admitted, a tinge of vulnerability in his voice. âDamn does it really show that much?â
âJust by the way you are worrying about her..yesâ
âDamnit Iâm such an idiot, I shouldâve protected her and stayed by her side but I was a goddamn coward,â he cursed, hating himself for his actions ânow sheâs angry and wants nothing to do with me.its all my faultâ
âHey man dont say that, you can still fix things but if you donât catch up to her you will never get the chanceâ
Meanwhile You continued through the sewers and just by the to the Serling
âUgh I will never get used to the sewersâ you said
Bruno spotted you in the distance and approached you his heart pounding, this was his chance.
You turned and glared at him âyou. You turned around and quickened the pace.
You ran and he called out â(Y/n)!!â
You didnât stop âthereâs nothing to talk aboutâ
Bruno began to panic he couldnât lose you again. He couldnât let you walk away like this
âWait wait dont just walk away damnitâ he exclaimed his voices strained with desperation âplease just listen to me for a minuteâ
Sprinting up to the second floor of the hotel you get into the saferoom and give the doc his laptop
âHere you go doc Iâm not sticking around Iâm not coming backâ
Bruno leaned against the wall beside the door listening to each word the guilt eating at him as you yanked the door opening running off.
After a bit you leaned against the wall of the quarantine zone near the tower.
Bruno saw you and his heart dropped..he just wanted to reach out and hold you and comfort you but he knew he didnât have that right.
âWhy does everyone betray meâ you sob and bruno felt his stomach drop at your words.
âWhy did I let myself get to close, I thought we had something specialâ you whisper
We did have something special I ruined it bruno thought
After a bit more crying and mumbling you back into him which shocked him because he hadnât meant for you to back into him he was in his own world.
âBRUNO WHAT THE FUCK!â You yell
âAlright calm downâ he said
âCalm down your telling me to calm downâ
You stare at him âwhat do you want?â
âLook (y/n) I was a fool to do that to you..I was scared because of my feelings and the thought of losing you scared me so I ran..â he spoke
âYou ran when I needed you the mostâ
âI know Iâm sorryâ he mumbled apology after apology
âYou can tell me anything what is itâ he said
He was shocked when your lips pressed agasint his and he froze. After the shock wore off he kissed back.
Pulling away he said âI promise I wonât do that againâ
