Chereads / I Inherited A Dream System / Chapter 21 - Big Papa Bear

Chapter 21 - Big Papa Bear

Toby is trying to find the villain known as Big Papa Bear, by following the smoke caused by a big explosion, which he must have been responsible for. But then the young dreamer receives another message from the system, this one even more unsettling.

Toby Robinson: Okay, now I know that something is definitely wrong here... Release! (Toby said as he releases Browny from his hold)

[Tamed Holding Deactivated]

Browny appears before Toby in a matter of seconds, and the look on his face speaks volumes.

"Low Growl" (Browny sounded in a fearful and worried manner)

Toby Robinson: So you feel it too, right? That means we must be in deep trouble. (Toby tells him, now even more worried about all this)

"Growl!" (Browny responded)

Toby Robinson: Don't worry, I know exactly how to get us out of this. I've read about situations like this a lot, the hero is stuck in a dangerous place, and can't escape until he defeats the one causing all the problems. Which in this case, must be Big Papa Bear. (Toby explains)

"Loud Growl!" (Browny sounded excitedly, ready for this fight)

Toby Robinson: I like your enthusiasm, buddy. But we have to be careful. Big Papa Bear could be a normal grade dream being for all we know, meaning that he's probably more powerful than you. So, you're gonna be my secret weapon. I'll keep you on hold until it's time for a surprise attack! What do you say? (Toby asks)

"Roar!!!" (Browny roars in agreement)

Toby Robinson: Then let's do this! (Toby says as he stretches out his hand)... Tamed Holding! (Toby uses the skill once again)

[Tamed Holding Activated]

After using the tamed holding skill on Browny, the teenager considered the possibility of the good detective being the bad guy he needed to beat, he was acting strange afterall.

But Toby quickly disregarded this train of thought. Detective Hornswoggle couldn't be the big bad because his level is just too low, making him no real threat to Toby and Browny. Big Papa Bear however, seems to be the likely suspect, since he is a pretty strong enemy of Dark Stallion in the comics, maybe he's also a strong dream being, with strange powers that may be stopping him from exiting the dream state.

Toby Robinson: Whoever it is, I'll find them. Even if it means defeating them both. (Toby decided as he ran towards the pillar of smoke, still trying to find Big Papa Bear)

A biker gang drove through the streets of Dark City, but the streets were now empty, not a single person or vehicle in sight. The gang park all their bikes in front of a bank, and their leader is the first to dismount.

Big Papa Bear (Leader Of The Big Papa Bear Gang):Hmmm, It seems this bank is closed boys... Good thing I've got a spare key right here! (The big man said as he picks up his own bike, and then throws it at the bank using all of his strength)

The motorcycle hits the building with enough force to cause a large explosion, and Big Papa Bear isn't even done yet. He then runs towards the building and knocks down the door with a mighty kick.

Big Papa Bear: It's time to plunder boys! (The big man instructed his gang after breaking down the door for them)

In the comics Big Papa Bear is a villain with superhuman levels of strength. He also controls a large gang that has always terrorizing the citizens of Dark City for years, he's an absolute menace to society.

The Big Papa Bear Gang typically wear black leather jackets, with the words Big Papa boldly written at the back. But as their leader his jacket is different, it has the words Big Papa on it, but right below that is the image of a vicious looking bear.

*******

Toby has been running through the empty streets for some time now, slowly making his way towards the pillar of smoke.

Toby Robinson: All the people are gone, and so are all the cars. This reminds me of when I fought the Eews... I have to get out of here quickly. (Toby thought as he ran even faster, having plenty of stamina to do so)

Toby Robinson: That's the third time now. What happens if I can't leave this place, will I be stuck here forever? (Toby thought worriedly)... No! I know what I have to do, and no matter what it takes, I will beat Big Papa Bear! (Toby thought determinately, finally reaching the cause of all the smoke)

The smoke was caused by the destroyed bike which was now on fire, the fire wasn't even an intense one, yet it was producing a large plume of smoke. The strange thing is after Toby arrives at the scene, the burning bike just disappears, becoming new as it repositions itself among all the other parked bikes in front of the bank.

Toby Robinson: Guess I was right. Big Papa Bear is the one I need to take down. (Toby says as he summons his dream sword, waiting for the villain to come out of the bank)

[You Have Encountered Multiple Dream Beings]

[Quest Received: Defeat Big Papa Bear And His Gang]

[Quest Reward: Level Up And More]

[Quest Penalty: Serious Injury]

Toby Robinson: A level up huh? That means he must be a...

Before Toby could finish that train of thought, a large man steps out of the bank. He is a white male with a full beard, and black shades covered his eyes. He is also about seven feet tall, and looks very intimidating in his biker gang outfit.

Big Papa Bear: Who the heck are you?! (The villain asks in a strong and fearless manner)

Toby Robinson: I am Tob... I mean, I am the Dreamer! The hero that will be stopping you today! (Toby declares as he readies his dream sword)

Big Papa Bear: Is that so?... So Dark Stallion decided to send a boy to do a man's job?! (Scoffs) It doesn't even matter, I'll just make sure to send you back to him in a wheel chair! (The villain threatens before stepping forward, carrying big bags that are probably filled with cash)

Toby Robinson: (Deep Breath) I'd like to see you try! (Toby said before summoning his dream shield, now ready to take him on in a fight)
