☾ . . jealousy.

top!scaramouche x bottom!reader. 0.8k words. warnings include gn afab reader, scara might be ooc, jealously, possessiveness, office sex, a bit of physically rough stuff, crying, degrading terms (dirty and slut), fluff at the end because i'm a whore for tooth rotting sugar sweet shit. sorry

notes: this is short and was written as i went, so the direction is a little weird, i'm very sorry for that. i assume you don't really care that much however if you found this on the smut tag

written by a minor [15]. dni if uncomfortable.

"s-scaramouche?!" you yelped, trying to keep quiet although your face was burning a bright, crimson red. your lover had shoved you against the wall of his office, wrists firmly held over your head.

"listen to me closely." he hissed into your ear. "you're only mine. i don't want you ever even thinking about that scumbag."

what..? all childe had done was accompany you on your way back to scaramouche's office. the situation was moving too fast for you. maybe it was childe hugging you right in front of him once you'd reached the door that had caused this .. you hadn't noticed how scaramouche's eyes had instantly darkened when it happened.

"scara .. it was only a frie-" you were cut off with a sharp gasp as his grip on your wrists tighted.

"you're only mine!" he said, louder now. you took a few deep breaths, averting eye contact. scaramouche noticed and freed one of your wrists to take your chin instead, harshly turning it towards him. "look at me and say it."

tears were now starting to form in your eyes as you gazed into his, and you were just barely holding them in. "i - i'm only yours." you managed you squeak out.

there was a moment of silence, and his eyes softened only slightly. "only who's?" he prompted.

".. scaramouche's." you whispered. he smirked, pushing you from the wall to bent over his desk in a quick motion. almost as quickly as he was off, scaramouche was close to you once again, and this time you could feel his clothed dick against your ass.

"good." he said, and you could practically hear the cruel smile on his lips. "now why don't we let childe know?"

with a vague idea of what the harbinger meant, you gave him a slow, nervous nod. right away you felt your skirt being pulled down, where it fell to the ground around your feet. a lithe finger began prodding at your entrance.

it slipped in, then a second did as well. his thumb brushed quick circles over your clit, and you buried your head in your arms in embarrassment - archons forbid any other harbingers walk in on this.

"so needy - and all for me." he murmured with a short and mean laugh. "i- i- scara!" you whimpered, dripping hole beginning to clench around his fingers as the familiar warm feeling pooled inside you.

you can't say you hadn't expected it, but still let out a disappointed and incoherent mumble as he quickly removed his fingers. there was the sound of more clothing falling to the ground as scaramouche undressed himself.

soon you felt him above you once more, his hands on either side of you. "you're ready now, aren't you?" he asked, although the leaking tip of his dick was already touching your hole made it obvious he knew the answer.

"mhm .. please fuck me, scara." you pleaded quietly. with a scoff, he pushed himself in suddenly and you let out a cry. scaramouche gave you only a brief moment or two to adjust before plowing into you at a fast pace.

your cries soon turned into loud moans, almost screams of pleasure. "you dirty slut!" he laughed, only getting more rough as you got louder. "always such a slut, and only for me - only for me!"

"yes, yes! fuck, i - i'm all yours, scara .. !" you wailed, stumbling over your own words and repeating his name or jumbled promises of devotion and love like prayers.

the only time he stopped was for a short second to flip you over on his desk, sending a few papers fluttering to the floor. "let me see your face. h - hah .. so pretty, and for my eyes alone." he groaned.

your head spun as moans flew out of your mouth without any filter. surely, anyone in teyvat could hear now .. you thought in a daze, although it was soon forgotten as your attention was once again returned to scaramouche's throbbing cock inside of you.

tears were falling fast now. he hit every sweet spot, filled you up perfectly. once again, your stomach felt as though it was twisting itself into knots. "s - scaramouche, i'm g-" you tried to stutter out.

"hold it. not until i do." he commanded. his thrusts were slowing some, and getting sloppier. scaramouche fucked his cock deep into you once more, and with a low groan, his thick cum filled you up. you finally allowed yourself release, fluids mixing with his as you went nearly limp against the desk with exhaustion.

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆

you now sat comfortably in his office chair, skirt back on and huddled with your knees to your chest. "mm, you know," you murmured, gazing at your lover's back in pure adoration as he got redressed. "you should fuck me like that more often."

"oh, really?" he hummed, finishing and turning around to look at you.

"yeah." you said with an absentminded nod, and he walked over to give you a short kiss.

a small smile crossed your face. "i'm glad you're okay." scaramouche added after a pause. ".. tell me if it's ever too much."

a light laugh came from you and you pulled him into a close embrace. "of course. anything for you." you assured him.

I’ve seen some criticism that Belos’ defeat was underwhelming. All of that build up and he just crashed. Do you see that or is there a hole there?

Honestly, even though I completely disagree, and gesture to the whole of Luz becoming a Titan and tearing away at Belos up until he had nothing left as being far from underwhelming, even if we're only looking at the scene where he's melted away by the acid rain and then curb-stomped by Eda, Raine, and King....isn't that what he deserves?

If Belos had gotten this big, over the top anime sequence type of death, with whole crowds attacking him and him fighting tooth and nail and reaching near victory, that'd be exactly what he wanted, isn't it? Any outcome where he looks like a hero, any outcome that made him look like a hero dying in action for the good of the people, is exactly what Belos would've wanted. It would've proven exactly what he's been saying all this time. If Everyone had beaten him to death, he, in his own dying mind, would've been vindicated that the Boiling Isles was full of savages.

But the fact that he succumbs to rain? to nature? There's no heroic way to paint that. It's incredibly pathetic. Everyone on the Isles knows that the rain is acidic and fatal, so even those who may have sympathized with him otherwise would hear that his cause of death was rainfall and thought "god, what an idiot, dying in such an easily preventable way." One of my personal favorite comments on this came from....either a friend on discord or some other tumblr post, I can't remember which, was the comment that pointed out that Belos melting away in the rain plays a really neat little parallel to how evil witches are always defeated in stories in the real world; they're melted away by water, and essentially what happens to Belos is no different; the rain melts him to mush, just as regular human realm rain made of water would melt evil witches of fairytale lore to mush as well.

It's not about getting a big, dramatic death scene. It's about getting it over with. Belos is gone, and that's that. There's no mourning or even any real celebration, outside of Raine commenting that curb-stomping on his melting corpse felt satisfying. It just Is, and now that he's gone, they can work on restoring the Isles like he never existed. It's exactly the kind of ending Belos would be furious about, the kind where he just becomes some pointless little blip in Boiling Isles history. Obviously Luz + co are still trauamatized by the whole ordeal, but I guarantee that even as few as two generations down the line, the name Belos or Philip Whittebane is gonna be nowhere to be found anywhere in the BL records, and he would fucking hate that

Which is why it's such a satisfying way for him to go. Get fucked, old man, you're not even getting the satisfaction of an overdramatic death scene. Get rained on.

Slashers with an s/o who makes and wears bone jewelry

I know this is specific but I made some bone jewelry with some animal bones today and I kept thinking about my bone boys. So I thought this would be a cute little headcannons I hope you enjoy

Warnings: murder, dead animals and bones mentions

Includes: Lester Sinclair, Thomas Hewitt and Bubba Sawyer

Lester Sinclair

When he first met you and he saw the bones on your necklaces rings bracelets earrings etc he fell in love

He’d make some stupid joke like “You’ve got nice bone structure.” Or something dumb like that

Once you start living with him he’ll be eager for you to make more things with his bones, cause I feel like this man just has them laying around.

He’d wear whatever you make him all the time. Necklace with a part of a raccoons jaw? Wearing it right now darlin. Ring with some deer teeth? Oh boy he’s wearing it like a wedding ring.

If you make earrings you might find this fucking himbo trying to pierce his own ears too. Bo is also a himbo dont @ me

He’ll give you whatever supplies you need and even drive into town for them. If Bo comments in a negative way on your jewelry Lester is quick to defend you. “Well you’ve always got that damn tacky ring on but ya don’t see me commentin on it.”

Thomas Hewitt

This man would first see you sitting at the table with whatever bone jewelry you have on. I like to think you’d be wearing a necklace and he’d pick it up while you’re wearing it and look at it.

Once he knows you’d be staying he’ll always be watching your jewelry. He loves how it looks and moves and how at home it makes him feel around you.

He’ll start to give you supplies to make things with like jump rings and pliers and chains. Also well small bones too. He’ll drill holes in them if he has to. He likes the idea of nothing in the house going to waste.

If Hoyt or Monty poke fun at you for it he’ll stick up for you. They mess with him enough but they won’t mess with his s/o.

He’d also probably saw up bigger bones for things and he might start to use the bone marrow in the food.

If you made him anything he’ll wear it but keep it hidden. He adores you so much and he loves that you’d do that for him.

Bubba Sawyer

He would absolutely not kill you when he sees your bone jewelry. He always is trying to show off a feminine side to him because of his genderfluid identity but his brothers are fucking cocks so he can’t really do much. But with you he can have some fun.

He’ll bring you small animal bones and teeth and whatever else you need. He’ll even convince Drayton to get you more supplies if he can find them.

He’ll watch you while you make them. Looking at the process and watching your hands as you work with the wire and chains and bones, making it into art. Kinda like how he turns faces into masks for art.

I feel like if you have Jewelry to Bubba he would never in a million years take it off. He doesn’t care what his brothers say to him he love it so much and the fact it was made by you makes it even better.

He’ll probably ask you to make some for Nubbins too because I feel like he’d be the most supportive brother out of all of them and kinda show support for Bubba with a little tooth bracelet.

Bubba will probably also steal bones from the road kill Chop Top and Nubbins find just for you.

The Lethality of the persona bites

Is this really sensical? No. This is just for me. Moreso than most of my other Ryomina works. Most context I can give, is...I like giving people fangs, and I had fun trying to break down which of the four in my rpverse is the worse.

I mean, it's Ryoji obviously. But, for funsies! Shits and gigs!

GORO AKECHI

Risk of being bitten: Low

Survivability: Medium

Damage: Medium

Akechi has shark-like teeth of uniform length thanks to Loki. And, fittingly for someone as methodical as Akechi, they often come out only when he chooses for them to come out. Though, they also may come out when his negative emotions are high, but with some focus, he can keep that from happening. Which, gives Akechi one of the highest amounts of control over his fangs.

On the topic of his level of control and thought, hee isn’t likely to bite you unless he’s given no other real option. Akechi’s simply more methodical and premeditated with his violence. After all, teeth leave bitemarks that can be traced, and require close quarters that risk the leaving of dna and being hurt. He’s more likely to just wait for an opening and shoot you, or give you a mental shut down. So, his teeth aren’t consistently dangerous, since he isn’t likely to use them.

However, in the case that he doesuse them, his bite is very damaging. Easily capable of biting chunks out of people and leaving someone with a gaping hole and a higher risk of bleeding out on the way to the hospital. Thankfully, though, Akechi doesn’t have any form of venom or powered-up bite force, so nothing is there to complicate being bitten. It’s a pretty simple bite compared to the others.

The main thing that will end you in an encounter where Akechi bites you, is Akechi himself. You can get to a hospital and stop the bleeding of the bite itself, but Akechi may choose to finish you off after the fact. Which is a lot harder of a threat to deal with.

AKIRA KURUSU

Risk of being bitten: Medium

Survivability: Medium

Damage: High

Akira’s fangs are more non-uniform than Akechi’s, though just as sharp. They vary a bit in length thanks to resembling the jagged mouth of Arsene. And, unlike Akechi’s fangs, Akira can’t entirely control when his fangs come out or not. They’re much like the claws of a cat, appearing with pressure to the right spot in his mouth. Aka, the top of his mouth or to his human teeth.

Which, means that when Akira bites, his fangs are brought out. Which, wouldn’t be too much of an issue, if not for Akira having violent impulses that crop up when his temper wears thin. Which, he has a fairly good control of. But, it also means his temper is like a game of russian roulette, 5 out of 6 times, nothing too bad will happen, but that sixth time is often horrible in exchange.

On the bright side, that unpredictable nature is the only real complication to factor into a confrontation, as Akira, like Akechi doesn’t have any venom and his bite force is that of a human’s. But, in exchange, his damage is a lot higher than Akechi’s, as his uneven bite pattern lends itself less to cleanly cutting, and far more to tearing. So, the damage he can do in a single bite is worse than Akechi’s bite due to shredding through muscle and skin rather than taking out a clean chunk and causing trauma at a less predictable depth. Though, thanks to the uneven length of his fangs, blood loss is a slightly lessened threat than it is in Akechi’s situation, as not every tooth is likely to go deep enough to hit an artery, or at least won’t puncture an artery as many times. So, the primary risk of Akira’s bite is the damage done to your skin in a struggle and potential for infection.

EIKICHI MISHINA

Risk of being bitten: Low

Survivability: High

Damage: Low

Unlike the two discussed before him, Eikichi’s fangs don’t come from his shadow, but a rumor spread around his school that he was a vampire. So, he only has two fangs instead of a mouth full. So, already, despite his two fangs being more like needles, you’ve got a better chance of surviving. Helped in part by the low risk Eikichi actually poses to you.

Granted, when Eikichi doesbite, it’s fairly dangerous. After all, he does have two needles for fangs, and will instinctively go for an artery to feed as much as possible, which instantly raises the likelihood of bloodloss. Added to by the fact that, unlike the previous specimens, Eikichi’s jaw is capable of locking into place on his prey. So, escaping his bite is a challenge unless you can apply enough pressure to both sides of his jaw to force them open.

However, the danger of a bite is mitigated by simply how low the chances of it happening is. Since, as a passive vegetarian, Eikichi has no real interest in causing harm or feeding on other people. He’s, instead, a bit of a passifist. So, you would have to almost actively ignore his warnings and get very close to him to be bitten in the first place.

Though, again, unlike the previously discussed pair, Eikichi’s bite doescome with a complication in the form of him having venom. A venom that is meant to disarm the person he bites and puts them into a sort of drug-addled trance that makes them less likely to fight him. But, that’s not the only complication he comes with, as his jaw actually isa bit stronger than a human’s, and is capable of locking so that it’s harder for his prey to pull free. So, all around, Eikichi isn’t the most dangerous or deadly, but he’s noteworthy.

RYOJI MOCHIZUKI

Risk of being bitten: Depends

survivability: You’re fucked

Damage: You’re fucked

Ryoji Mochizuki is. A special case on the topic of his fangs and his bite. For one, his fangs aren’t very commonly seen. They’re kept to his shadow form, and he’s not likely to bare them at someone since he’s surprisingly pretty nonviolently. But, he’s also insanely capable of violence and harm. He’s literally a creature born from the worst parts of humanity, a child of Nyx who’s sole purpose is to apprise the fall and end humanity as a whole. He’s built to kill. Yet, despite that, the only real way to be bitten is to force his hand.

Of course, in the early years, when he was little beyond an apex predator bent on harvesting souls to feed his trapped mother, that low chance of being bitten would’ve been insanely high. As, if you were in his cross-hairs, you weren’t surviving.

Which, is why his survivability is so low. Because, where his bite lacks in consistent risk level, it makes up for with its kill rate. Mostly thanks to his skill in hunting humanity, but the fact that Ryoji’s venom gives you Apathy syndrom, you have no real way to survive being bitten by him. Because, if his jaw strength and razor-blades-for-teeth don’t kill you, the induced apathy syndrome will drive you to take your life similarly to how a komodo dragon’s spit is so diseased that it’ll kill you afterwards.

So, it shouldn’t be a surprise that the god of death has the lowest chance of survival despite arguably having the lowest risk of being bitten.

Amberline

Part II

Disclaimer: It's not good or proofread. This fic will have mature content, it will not stay sut free for long...

♡♡♡♥︎♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♥︎♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♥︎

I was hiding from Gretchen.

Okay, that's not true.

I was hiding from Gretchen and her friends Sonia and Jerrica. I wasn't in the mood to answer questions about why I wear my hair like Morticia Addams according to Jerrica, or listening to Sonia obsess over Kyle's angst and why she would be good for him.

Sonia is very off, whenever she sees Kyle with another girl, she acts like a jealous girlfriend. Sometimes she'll give him the cold shoulder, and naturally he won't even notice. That one week when he was with Kayla Kendall, Sonia sobbed in the girl's bathroom, wrote Kayla Kendall has herpes on the bathroom wall, ripped up her diary which apparently consisted only of Kyle and attempted to flush the pages down the toilet which only caused a flood.

She now has a week of detention.

I like them though. I think Gretchen is nice to talk to, I opened up about my old friends ignoring me and told her it felt nice to be included. Last week we had a sleepover at Jerrica's. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the girls like scary movies too, and they let me pick the movies since I work at Blockbusters and get the discount. We watched Scream, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Slumber Party Massacre II, and Donnie Darko. We had pizza hut and of course talked about Kyle. They can't stop talking about how he approached me at morning mass that day, but I reminded them that he hasn't approached me since. He was probably just intrigued because I was a girl he hadn't seen before.

I hated how that made me feel sad and insignificant, because I couldn't stop thinking about him. And when he wasn't paying any attention to me, which was often, I would watch him. I'm writing a story about a serial killer who has fallen obsessed and in love with this girl who feels all alone. The killer is an actor and no one suspects his crimes, I based him off of Kyle. Down to those loose, satin curls of his.

I think about him so often, I even made a CD of songs that remind me of him.

I'd never admit that out loud, how I would die of embarrassment if I was another girl obsessing over the mad, bad, and dangerous to know Kyle Scheible.

But yes, I was hiding from my new friends. It's very hard reading around them, and lately I've been enthralled by Flowers in the Attic, a book that the school and most schools have banned. It had lies, murder, incest, everything horrid and written like poetry.

I was hiding beneath a tree on the school property, headphones on and listening to Hole's Live Through This, album to set the mood right.

It was a hot September day, I had two buttons undone on my school shirt and my socks scrunched down, one leg laying down as the other was hitched up. My hair was piled up on top of my head and held together by a tortoise shell banana clip, a myriad of my raven strands fell from the clasp. But it was off my neck and that was what's important.

I swallowed the words on the pages with greed until I felt someone beside me. I froze when I saw long pale fingers, a disproportionate thumb resting on the page, teasing its hem. I smelled laundry detergent, cigarettes, and a spicy cologne smell as I felt someone against me.

I pushed my headphones down to rest around my neck and looked up to find Kyle reading the words on the page of my book with intensity.

Instead of demanding what his problem was, I found myself studying his perfect profile. His prominent Adam's apple I wanted to suck on, the razor sharp jawline and his aquiline nose. His eyes look greener today, like marble green. His hair fell in his face and I had the strongest desire to brush it away, but the breeze did that for me and I envied that breeze for doing so.

"“Around us, below us, this huge house seemed a monster, holding us in its sharp-toothed mouth. If we moved, whispered, breathed heavily, we’d be swallowed and digested.” You really are little Miss-Scare-All, aren't you Amberline?" He finally took his eyes off of the page after reading that excerpt, to stare intimidatingly into my eyes.

I swallowed, my chest rose and fell from my hammering heart, his eyes briefly dropped down to my heaving breasts like some dirty romance novel. We were so close, I could almost taste his neck. I could bite his collarbone if I wanted.

"How do you know my name?"

His eyes remained dead but a silver of a smirk decorated his lips. "I asked your friend, Gretchen. She nearly uh…had a heart attack though." He chuckled breathily. "You're a little hard to track down Amberline Frasier, someone said you were in the art room and you weren't. You take the bus to whoever or wherever knows where, and you work at Blockbusters but I never see you there."

He was looking for me? I was speechless, there was nothing special about me, I'm not pretty or interesting or social. I have no interest in climbing up the high school social ladder.

He brushed his fingers against my naked thigh, I didn't stop him or feel offense, I just wanted him to never stop touching.

"Everyone is calling you a witch." He smirked.

"Oh…that's okay…"

His smirk almost formed into a smile and he leaned in closer, slipping something into my bag. "Your lack of care for what your peers think of you, is intriguing." He then stood up. How someone could rise from the grass so smoothly, I'll never know.

But he was gone as quick as he arrived. I looked at what he slipped into my backpack, finding a copy of The Crucible, I opened the book to the bookmarked page, and there highlighted the quote "‘— a death-ridden woman, haunted by dreams.’".

Then a ripped piece of paper was paperclipped to the page in messy handwriting, reading, "meet me after school in the parking lot, tell me what haunts you. I want to know about the witch of Immaculate Heart." - Kyle

Papa orb.. and Mama orb???

fun fact in my kirby au kirby has a biological mother!!!

Her name is Wafer, her proper title being Dame Wafer Knight. She and Meta met in NME, and had Kirby around the same time as their escape!! Sadly Wafer ended up kidnapped well into knighthood, and Meta hasn’t seen her until recent years. It also meant she didn’t really get to see Kirby grow, but both her husband and child are just glad that she was able to be rescued in the end.

also meta and wafer are T4T <3

She has a talent for making realistic pastries, which in turn means she’s a master at baking-based pranks. She also just likes baking overall, and has a midwest accent to boot! She’s overall pretty sweet, even when causing a bit of tomfoolery.

her fear of machines is due to Nightmare having used her to power his backup base, which took a massive toll on her physical and mental health.

image description below!!

Image description: The first image is of Meta Knight wearing a pink sleeping mask with darker frills rather than his usual mask. He is loafed up next to a paler newborn Kirby. To the right of them both is Wafer Knight, who has one of her wings draped over them both

second image is a reference sheet for Wafer Knight. The text at the top reads ’WAFER KNIGHT’ and ‘“Soft-Swirled Dame”‘ respectively.

To the far left of the ref is a reference of Wafer’s armored and unarmored body. Her body is mint colored, with varying brown accents on her legs, wings, and horns. She also has five freckles on her face that are also a dark shade of brown. Her eyes are lime green. The top reference showed Wafer with sabatons the same color of her legs and a light brown mask with two eye holes. down the center of the mask is a line and bolts showing where the mask’s two sides were welded together. She is also wearing pale blue gloves. The bottom ref Shows her without her armor, showing off her face and pawpads, the largest one in her palm being the shape of a heart.

Besides main body references is a ref for her cape, which has white swirls at the top like whipped cream or ice-cream, and a base of plain brown that resembles a wafer cone. Text next to the reference reads ‘cape =D’.

next to the cape reference is four deceptions of Wafer with different expressions. The top left shows her smiling happily, revealing a sharp tooth. The top right shows Wafer appearing to be annoyed or put off, with lines being used to show a darker shading spot between her eyes. The eyes in questioned are furrowed in suspicion. The bottom left shows Wafer crying, one of her eyes barely open and streaming tears. The other eye is closed and her mouth is wide open but wobbly, indicating loud sobs. The bottom right shows a slightly flustered expression, with Wafer’s eyes drooped and her smile wobbly. She is also faintly blushing. All four expressions are looking off to the side.

Below the face references is a reference for Wafer’s wings. The top shows the front view of her wings, which are a pale yellowish color. The bottom shows the back view of her wings, which are segmented into a gradient that goes from the off-yellow to a more brownish tone.

next to the wing references is a reference for Wafer’s main weapon, which is a spiked ball and chain. the base of the handle and ball are a dark blue, while the chain connecting the two is a much lighter blue and the spikes on the ball are a light green.

next to the weapon reference is Wafer’s color palette.

next to the color palette are two pride flags. The top one is the transgender flag, and the bottom one is the bisexual flag.

below the pride flags is an image of Wafer baking, she is kneading dough while wearing a chef hat. The cheff had has an image of a rat on it with the anagram ‘K.T.C’ below. The anagram stands for “Kiss The Cook”.

Below the baking doodle is an image of Wafer in her armor and sitting happily behind a desk of sorts. Text below reads ‘retail worker in current day’.

below the retail doodle is an image of Wafer fearfully looking away from a wrench, her face dark and with sweat running down it. Her wings are also puffed up in alarm. Text besides the image reads ‘Has a massive fear of large machines’.

End of description.

I'm so terrified I don't know what to do

My mother was kicked off of disability for getting "too much money" She was on old age pension and disability. Every single cent went into bills, rent and food and medication for a household of 4. Along with the money I get every 3 months, the money my siblings make off of their freelance careers. All of it went into living expenses.

But we STILL never had enough for a full 4 weeks of groceries, we scraped by on 2 - 3weeks of groceries. We STILL never had enough for our disability diets for mom and I so we ate the least. And we dont have enough never had enough for all the medications we need like my vitamins and supplements for my deficiencies or the medicine for my stomach issues, or mom's thyroid medicine.

Never been able to afford asthma medicine or seizure medicine. Even if it wasn't for her paying for us to live too. It STILL isn't enough to cover just her medications or food. Majority of it goes into bills and rent. Very little is left over for food or medicine which is why I and my siblings chip in to try to help.

But its still "Too much money"? Even when if she was alone she STILL couldn't live off of it? We live in the cheapest house in the area, thats including among other neighbouring towns. We eat UNDER the calorie limit we should be, we never throw a single bit of food out unless its unuseable. We eat like mice nibbling on everything we eat and trying to fill more space with water so we don't eat as much every meal.

So mom was kicked off, and we don't know what we're going to do. Theres no jobs in my town, we cant drive or afford a license much less a car. We cant pay for a daily bus pass for interviews we have no garuntee in passing and getting a job from, out of town and back.

We don't have the ability to save up to do so either and mom and I are disabled we can't work we physically are unable to. My eldest sibling has a screwed up knee, we all have PTSD bc the system failed us when I was younger and left my family stuck in an abusive situation to protect me from being r*ped when I was a m!nor bc its all we could do. We went through years of court cases, and s*xual and physical abuse until I was 14 when the monster died. Then years of stalking and attempted break ins, harassment, by the a**holes family until I was 19 with no one in my town helping not even law enforcement. So we have PTSD, things like ambulances, sirens from cop cars, sirens from fire trucks cause us to have panic attacks. We struggle to be separated bc for survival we never could be. We have flashbacks out of our control. No amount of therapy fixes it. We can't afford therapy anymore either. Yet its being decided we are "Able enough to work" and we make too much money by having just enough to barely scrape by or survive?

The system is so broken, cold hearted and cruel and it NEEDS to change it NEEDS to be fixed. Just because our disabilities are invisible like PTSD and Epilepsy or inconsistant where some days the pain isn't as bad as others or is sporradic like tourettes doesn't mean we aren't disabled.

and my older sibling and I still have dental work to get done. The only place in town that takes people with anxiety is going to charge around 2.5k to do both mine and my sibling's teeth. plus we have to get mom's top dentures fixed and my other sibling needs a tooth fixed. So thats even more. But my one sibling and I can't wait until free dental is in for us in 2025. The dental plan will take too long for us. Our teeth can't wait that long, their's has active decay and mine is in severe pain and worn down from bruxism from tourettes. My whole family needs new glasses but we cant even afford an appointment to get a prescription for them much less afford a pair of glasses from any local shops. What are we going to do? I feel helpless and scared. I'm watching my whole family destroy themselves in depression over the news because they lost all hope in seconds because we CANT get back on disability and theres no hope in this town. Its so painful. All I can do now is try to act like everything is normal and keep myself distracted so I can stay the strong one for them. But im terrified. I'm really terrified. Its hard to even afford pads in my town its so expensive just for a bag of pads. When we have to buy more it means less food. What will I do now? I can't use any alternatives bc of medical reasons, pads are my only option among feminine products. Even if no one can help us, can I please ask everyone regardless of your religion to keep us in your prayers? Just incase it might help. I like to keep hope and believe it would. And even if you aren't religious please send us your good thoughts and energy. I believe the universe will get it to us still anyways. Maybe im being a bit silly but right now I need anything to believe in to get through this. Yknow?

I like how we are now being forced to carry fetuses and raise babies. When:

a majority of our generation is either still too young, broke and focusing on college/education.

Or tired, over worked, under paid middle aged people who can barely pay a fraction of basic living costs.

And let's also not forget a literal FUCKING BABY FOOD/FORMULA SHORTAGE. AND BABY ESSATIAL ITEMS COST TOO MUCH.

Crime in general among our society has increased horrendously. Especially towards minorities and children. (COUGH COUGH: WOMEN, CHILDREN, POC)

School shootings/shoot out every other fucking week. (I know this should be linked and fall under crime part up top. But honestly this is a separate and deeper rooted issue. JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS HELL HOLE OF A COUNTRY)

This government better not be surprised when mortality rates of women or children/babies go up. No one can afford even feeding themselves, let alone a baby/children at this point.

For the first time in a while my family can barely afford stocking our fridge from the inflation that has been going on. All the government is doing is starving their people and children economically, socially, and so much more Running us through the mill and to bend us over backwards. For a constitution and flag. Written and made for the rich, white, and old wrinkly husks we call law makers.

And to top if off they bring religion into it as if they think everyone in this country still believes in some singular righteous God. What the fuck ever happened to separation of church and state? As we speak they are just plucking away our rights like feathers. So if you STILL have rights of any sort left. Please do everyone else a favour and fight tooth and nail too keep them. Cause you never know when someone might take them.

"Well, well... When you imagine two women fighting over you, I bet this wasn't what you had in mind." Resting the barrel of her rifle upright against her shoulder, she sneered, watching her prey roll to the bottom of a ravine after she shot him in the leg. The man, now a former client of hers, was still clinging to life, howling in pain as he clutched the gaping hole in his thigh. Whether he bled out or he received another bullet to the brain was mute; he was dead either way.

As long as she collected her dues before his soul passed on into the ether, she didn't care what happened to his remains. But apparently during the chase, they had stumbled onto some other woman's property... And now they stood face to face, contending on who had more rights over the kill.

"I'll admit, I wasn't aware anyone held claim over these woods. I do apologize for the intrusion, but even so my claim to him supersedes something as flimsy as land ownership. Unless we're after the same thing, I think we can come to a mutual understanding..."

In the past, Mich was a woman to be feared. To be respected but watched out for. Back in the day, she was a true menace to her city, and a genuine threat in her state. The land she owns would fold beneath each step she took and the people would either hide or make sure they remained on her good side. A woman with conflicting morals and an aura that could cause trembles for miles. Unstoppable, unbeatable, nearly a god-like figure in the eyes of those who have known about her for a long time. Stories would be passed down through generations, about her iron mercy and her reddened tyranny. This woman states her rules and expects them to be followed by those beneath her. Here lies a man who did anything but that... And will atone for what he's done. And here comes that very woman...

"Gh.. HAAH... JESUS... CHRIST THESE HILLS... Who... thought it was a good idea... NNNGH, to start a fucking CHASE... In the WOODS..."

That very woman...

Was clawing her way up the hill. Exhaustively. It was almost pathetic to watch...

"Couldn't have just RAN through the GOD DAMN STREETS?! This guy really... Fuckin' SUCKS... Maybe I'm GLAD 'm gonna fuckin'... Kill'm..."

With a heavy exhale, almost mixed with a victorious groan, she made her way to the top of the hill and collapsed onto her back. Her arm draped over her forehead as she caught her breath, muttering petty things about the travel under her breath.

She held a finger up to the other woman, signalling her to give Mich a moment. After a good minute or so, she finally rolled over and took her time to push herself off the ground and back onto her feet. Stumbling a bit, she manages to catch herself before she falls back down the hill she fought tooth and nail to climb up.

"Jesus I'm outta shape... Maybe a vacation is a good idea."

Less out of shape, more... Lazy. Rusty might be the best term.

"Y'know..." She spoke, still breathing heavily. "I really do hate competition. But honestly? After that bullshit? I'll make you a deal. We have a moment to talk, yeah?"

The redhead glances down the ravine, seeing the man pretty much disabled with agony and the uh... Bullet to the leg.

"What are you here for?"

Taking a good look at the woman, Mich finally caught wind of her aura. Her 'scent', if you will. Mich's head fell back in irritation before hanging for a moment, bringing it back up at an angle to look back at the other woman.

"Hellbound. I could take a good guess."

"Yeah, this is my property-"

Another finger as she bends over, exhaling heavily yet again and giving herself another moment to compose herself and regain her last breath she'd need for decent recovery before speaking again.

"Yeah, this is my property. In fact, beyond these woods? It's all mine. You ain't from here, I can only assume, so you must've traveled far for this one. I'm only here for the kill. The kill is my payment that I'm owed. That I've been owed for a while now. You let me put a bullet between his eyes, you take whatever you fuckin' need..."

A snarl forms faintly upon her upper lip.

"Then you personally get the fuck out of here, yeah?"

#[[pull the trigger]];; ic #[[gun powder]];; mich #this took so fucking long I'm so sorry but here eat up #foods ready

Chapter 1: Preparing for a normal show (Muppet!Various x GN reader)

A/n: Ah! Hello reader! This is one of my first fics so I apologize if it's not that great lol! Anyways this will be a reader x various fic so multiple muppets will be into you, it won't a big part of the story tho-

I want to make this into a longer, full story/ fic but I'm not sure, so for now this will just stay as a lil onshot/ pilot chapter to get to know people :)

(Also, Himko Toga from MHA exists in here for some reason, mainly because I love Toga and will include her in anything and everything haha)

Anyways, enough with my ranting, let's get on to the story! I hope you enjoy! :)

Y/n POV

BANG!

I shot up from my chair due to the loud noise that nearly gave me a heart attack. I realized I fell asleep in my dressing room Kermit gave me. I get up and exit my room, going to investigate what that noise was.

“GONZO WHAT DID YOU DO?!”

“I DON'T KNOW KERMIT I WAS TRYING TO THROW THE BOWLING BALL BUT IT GOT STUCK!”

I hear a bunch of yelling so I hurry over to where the source of this all was. After reaching the source of the commotion- which turned out to be backstage, I quickly looked over the room to make sure nothing was broken or on fire. My eyes then landed on a hole in the wall and Kermit and Gonzo seemingly panic-arguing.

“What in the world happened here?!”

The two muppets stop their frantic selves and looked over to me in the doorway.

“Y/n! There you are! I was practicing an act I was gonna do on the show later tonight, but the bowling ball got stuck in my fingers. Eventually it shot itself into a wall…” Gonzo struck a wavy smile, scratching the back of his head in embarrassment.

“...”

I gave them this wide-eyed stare in disbelief of what I was hearing. I know these muppets can cause trouble a lot of the time, but sheesh did these guys need to learn to chill out.

“It's fine I suppose, I'll just call in some guys to fix the wall later. You should really be more careful though, someone could've gotten hurt”.

I walked closer to the two as I lightly scolded Gonzo for what he did, but didn't say much else hoping he got the gist without a long lecture like a parent would give to their child. Kermit soon pipes up in the conversation, as I had momentarily forgotten he was there.

“Alright, well putting that aside, the show isn’t gonna start until later tonight, so hopefully everythings ready by then. Y/n, you got everything ready? You made sure we have everything prepared?”

Kermit looks over to me, anticipating my answer. After all, working in showbizz isn't as easy as it seems.

“Aye aye, captain! All the props and lines should be in order and everyone's working tooth and nail to make this performance goes right for once.”

I salute Kermit, flashing a smile with my remaining hand on my hip.

“Well, that's good. Why don't you check in on everyone one more time to make sure they're doing alright?”

“On it!” I say, turning to head over to the door to find the others as Kermit asked me to do.

No POV

Walking through the streets, we see 3 girls, walking and talking, having fun on their day out together.

“Man! I can't believe Mei said that to you, she's crazy I'm telling you.” Said Himiko Toga, a blonde teenager wearing a schoolgirl uniform, with her hair up in strange buns that realistically shouldn't be holding themselves in place.

“Aw c'mon Himiko! She's not that kooky I'm telling you!” Elaina- our second girl reassured Himiko with a soft smile. Elaina had a bit darker skin than the other two, with half of her head shaved, a black tank top/crop top torn at the top and bottom, a purple-plaid skirt and black leggings, with one of the legs being fishnet stockings instead.

The two were talking about their school and the crazy fiascos that occur on the daily. While the two were talking, the third girl, Botan, walked beside them. She had a small smile paired with a dead look in her eyes, many would find her facial expressions creepy and get naturally scared of her. But she couldn't care less of those people's thoughts. It wasn't their fault after all.

Botan was wearing a mandarin colored kimono, with white tracing the edges of the kimono. Botan had extremely pale skin, almost making her look like a ghost. She had white hair and a pixie cut with the front of her hair being a decent amount longer than the rest.

Her bangs looked like any regular bangs, aside from the slight uneven choppy look at the end, but somehow her hair looked good despite the weird haircut she had.

Finally, Botan decided to speak up, as she does not talk much.

“I've observed Hatsume Mei before. While her personality is a bit strange, she’s not crazy and has a good heart.” Botan gave a look to the two, keeping her gaze on Himiko for a bit longer, as the message was slightly aimed more towards her. Himiko gave a ‘are you kidding me’ look to Botan, slightly lowering her posture, she jokingly gave herself duck lips due to the fact she was the only one with her opinion.

“Aw, you guys never let me have my conspiracy theories, do you? One day, you'll all see she's as crazy as can be”

Himiko flipped her hair– well, more so her bangs and pieces of hair that weren't tied up in buns, and speed walked ahead of the other two.

“says you.” Botan deadpanned; knowing Himiko was far more crazy than Mei.

Himiko abruptly stopped walking and peered over her shoulder to Botan, giving her an offenced glare, despite knowing it was true what she implied.

“How about let's not argue for now, eh?” Elaina tried to save the conversation while holding a nervous smile with a sweat drop rolling down her face.

“I agree. I shan't contribute to a petty thing such as this.” Botan agreed with Elaina, quickly shutting down the tension that was once there for a moment. Himiko decided to let it go as well and slowed down so the other two could catch up with her.

As they were walking with each other once again, Elaina noticed a poster on a promotional brick wall, filled with advertisements put up by multiple companies, shops or anything of the sort. Elaina stopped walking as the others soon stopped as well to see what had caught Elaina’s attention.

“Hm? Whatcha lookin’ at?” Himiko stood beside Elaina as she gazed at the poster Elaina was staring at.

“Muppet Show. Purchase tickets now at Saint Mary's theater on 34th street. Show starts at 8pm and ends at 8:30 pm on Thursday, November 10th.” Himiko read what the poster was saying out loud to the other two. After she was done reading, she looked over the others to see their takes on what they were seeing.

Everything was silent for a minute.

“Himiko, I apologize in advance but are you blind?” Botan said to Himiko, breaking the short silence.

“WHAT?! What do you mean “am I blind?” Of course not!” Himiko retorted to Botan, clearly salty about what Botan had just said to her.

“Look at the imagery, y/n's on it.” Botan then pointed to a familiar h/c person.

“Oh-” Himiko said bluntly, embarrassed she didn't notice sooner.

“Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go buy some tickets to the show now!” Elaina said, eager to see their friend again at such a sudden notice. You could practically see the stars in her eyes paired with her wide closed-lip smile.

“Alright! Let's roll!” Himiko jumped up in joy and put a fist to the air in determination.

“The show is later tonight so let's hope we can make it in time, or that the tickets haven't sold out.” Botan said, her previously ‘creepy’ smile on her face being replaced with a warmer, softer smile.

A/n: ah! Did you actually read this silly lil thing?! I'm so happy! I really hope you enjoyed it, reader! :)

Goodbye!~

The Howling Past pt 3

If there was one thing Zaun never lacked was crime, and Vi knew exactly where to search.

The secret was to stay away from the light, whatever type of light. Sunlight, lampposts, neon store signs, any light was already too much, for the darkness had to conceal the evil deeds, and no place was better to stay away from the light than the Sump. So many times had Vi hidden in the darkness to escape some pursuers after she stole from others, whether it was food, clothes or some values from people who deserved to be robbed.

So she went there to find trouble, and find trouble she did!

There were two guys robbing a woman, holding her on a wall with a knife pointed at her. Vi stepped in.

-Guys, guys! I don’t think that’s the best way to conquer her heart.

No one of the robbers recognized the enforcer, which was strange considering that she was the only pink-haired woman with enormous gloves. She almost got offended.

-Piss off!- said the bald one of the two. The other man with the goatee, after looking at her, stopped what he was doing.

-Wait… do I know you, sister?

-Pete! Let’s not waste time!

-Shut up, Owen, I think I know this chick.- he got closer staring Vi in the face - Did I see you at the brothel, by any chance?-

-Oh, yeah! You enjoyed how I used my hands. Let me remind you!- Vi punched the guy faster than he could react. He lost a tooth or two but he was alive. The bald guy, witnessing the one-hit-ko his friend got, hurried off.

-FREEZE! Or don’t… I don’t care!

Vi started the chase. She has always been amazing in the art of parkour, and despite her gauntlets were indeed slowing her down a little, she did not lose him one bit, nor she looked fatigued at all. But the pursuit had to come to an end, so Vi charged her left gauntlet and jumped on a wall, she kicked it and released the power of her hextech weapon. With this, she reached easily the fugitive, hitting him “softly” but still with enough force to knock him out.

-Thank you for the little jog, Owen,- she then sent a message to the enforcers with the location where to find the robbers. She then moved on.

Not far from her position, she heard gunshots.

These led her to a fight between two groups of people, rival gangs. They were fighting in a square and Vi did not recognize any of the gang logos. Must be new. Seven people in total, three against four and the small group was the one with the guns. The three armed goons had forced the other four to cover behind some crates. They were the only ones there, everyone must have fled after hearing the shots.

Vi was watching them from behind a corner, smirking. -They’ll never know what hit’em.-

The three goons were walking toward the other four, keeping the pressure high so they wouldn’t escape in order to gun them down for good.

-Are you ready to die, scumbags?!

-We’re coming for you…

-You first, then the rest of your gang!

*They’re still kids, it’s just a game to them, but the gunshots and the holes they make are real. Gotta go easy on them*

Vi removed her gauntlets and put them on her back via magnets. This was a small but very appreciated upgrade: she could wear them like a backpack when not in need.

She didn’t rush them like she usually does, so she played it smart. She used the shadows like she used to do as a child and managed to sneak behind the three kids. The closest one, who could have had 15 years tops, was on the back compared to the other two and was reloading his gun, and Vi quickly grappled him in a hold that made him sleep after some pressure on the throat. He didn’t feel anything, he would just sleep for thirty minutes or so.

The second one was a little trickier. He was embracing his rifle and firing it as if he was at a shooting gallery. Going for his throat like the previous one would have caused him to retaliate, so disarming him was mandatory. This would have been done by a complicated grip, more like a wrestling move.

She could have done this, or…

The kid was shooting, as happy as if it was his birthday. He reloaded the gun, ready to finally see the scarlet blood of his enemy. Someone tapped his shoulder. He turned in that direction. He didn’t even know who or what was that hit him in the face.

*So much for going easy on them…* thought Vi on the brink of laughing.

-Ok, guys, now we strike them down!- said the last kid, but he got no answers from his friends -Guys?- he turned to see why his friends didn’t reply. He saw a woman, looking at him with a smile.

-Hi!- she punched him, knocking him out easily -Well, problem solved. You can come out, now!-

The four kids cautiously got out of their hideout. As soon as they saw their enemies unconscious, they ran towards Vi, relieved.

-Wow! Thanks a lot, bird!

*Bird?*

-Did the boss sent’ya, love?- they thought she was their backup.

-You can say that. What happened?

-Eramis’s dogs pinned us down, you saved our ass. How can we pay you back, love?- this little scoundrel was looking at Vi far too much for her tastes. She back slapped him.

-Alright, let’s make it clear: I’m no “bird” nor “love”, and if you look at me like that again I’ll break your fucking bones!- if there was one thing Vi hated was to be sexually objectified. Unless allowed to, of course.

-Shit! I know who she is! She’s that pink enforcer, the traitor!

-...what did you just call me?- she never heard someone call her a traitor before.

-Oh, Petrok will cover us in gold!- said the one who got slapped while taking out a knife.

-Yeah, we outnumber you, ginch! We’ll gut you!- this was the first one to attack. He also had a knife, and threw himself towards Vi with all his weight, attempting to stab her, only to see her stepping on his right, grabbing his arm and punching him hard, knocking him out.

Despite being still three, the kids were scared of facing her. Maybe it was her reputation, the giant gauntlets on her back that she could have worn at any minute, or the fact that she had no problems hitting 16 years old kids.

They surrounded her, all with knives in their hands.

-This is where you beg for your life, bitch!

Vi looked around her. She has found herself in a similar situation many times before and in far worse situations.

-So…- she smacked a fist into her other hand, -who needs a beatdown?-

The three fell into the provocation and attacked at the same time. Seeing the one in front of her plunging to stab her, Vi got herself out of that situation by dashing between two of the scoundrels and then pushing one of them towards the others.

She put some distance between them. -Come on! Make me beg!- she said while assuming a guarding stance.

They attacked all at once, from the front. Vi stepped back a couple of times to avoid the blades. This made one of them lose balance and be easily hit by the enforcer, breaking his nose. He would stay down, holding the wound in tears. The other two stopped to look at their friend’s blood, finally understanding that she was not messing around and that they would have never won that fight.

The one Vi slapped was approached by the other. -Jack, we need to get the hell out of here…- he whispered.

-You’re right…- and he pushed his “friend” to the “love”, as he called her minutes ago.

-YOU PIECE OF SH- Vi grappled him and slammed him to the ground. The little traitor started running as if his life depended on it, but Vi caught him pretty easily.

-So, “love”, how is Petrok Grime been doing lately?- she had him on the ground, knee on the chest and right hand on the neck, without putting pressure on it.

-Bite me!

-Bite you? Oh, that’s not my style…- she brought her left arm behind the back and wore the gauntlet, making it steam in front of his face. -I’m more of a punching type.-

The kid was terrified, but still wouldn’t talk.

-What, you shy?- Vi brought a closed fist back and the kid close his eyes in fear. He heard a heavy thud on his right and dust was in the air. He opened his eyes and saw the enormous hextech hand several centimetres deep into the ground.

He left out a shriek of terror, switching between looking at Vi and the gauntlet.

-Talk.- she was looking at him with a small smirk on her face, knowing that her intimidation was successful.

-O-Ok… H-He’s planning to…

-Hey! Leave that kid alone!

A voice came from behind Vi. She turned and saw it belonged to a girl with green-ish hair, a blue jacket with some tubes and other things attached to it and what looked like a gun like Vi had never seen.

-Your friend?- Vi asked the boy.

-N-No…

-Hey! I’m everyone’s friend!

-Sorry, kiddo, he doesn’t seem to know you. Or maybe he does but is lying. He pushed a “friend” of his into danger to save himself, earlier.- the boy was on the verge of crying. A mix of guilt and fear took him.

-I said, leave him alone!- with this, the girl pointed her fingers at Vi in the shape of a gun.

-Ehm… isn’t your gun on the other hand?- the girl looked at her hand as if something was supposed to happen, -Oh, come on!- and started to snap and move it compulsively.

-Ok… where were we? Oh, yeah, your boss.- Vi redirected her attention to the boy once more, who started to fear for his life once more.

Then… something hit her. It wasn’t a gunshot, she wasn’t in pain nor bleeding, she was… shocked, literally.

Vi stood up and turned around, facing her, -What the hell was that?-

The girl had now a more confident look on her face, and her left hand was sparkling with electricity.

Vi was dazed.

-I’m warning you, kid, you’re interfering with an official police operation!

-Pfff… what police officer would beat up a bunch of kids? You’re just a bully!- for the second time that day, she was called a bully.

-I didn’t make those holes! And they tried to stab me first!

-Only excuses!- the girl pointed her fingers at Vi once again, who could witness the electricity coming out of her.

*A mage? This girl?*

Vi wore her other gauntlet, having a feeling that would not be an easy fight. Needless to say, the boy had already left, along with the rest of his gang.

She assumed her guarding position, ready to activate her shield if needed.

Vi lunged at her and tried a punch, only to attack the air, the girl disappeared.

-Over here!- she said behind Vi before shooting with that curious gun of hers. Vi didn’t even have the time to turn as she was struck by some small balls of light, each of them causing pain and some convulsions.

-I suggest you run away, “policewoman”, Zaun will be better off without you.

Vi didn’t really appreciate those words. After everything she’s done for the Undercity… the jail time, the fight against Silco, the attempts to unite Piltover and Zaun to end all hostilities, all of this when kid was still wearing a diaper.

Time to teach her a lesson.

But how could a boxer hit a girl who moved as fast as lightning?

Vi charged her again, only to see the same situation. She managed to “parry” the light bullets, this time. The inside of the gauntlets were made of some insulating materials for both comfort and protection, which defended her a little, but not entirely. The gauntlets were not made to resist electricity, after all, so she felt that anyway. But this time, Vi did see her. This time, the girl was slower. Vi had only to endure and persist. Would she be able to?

-I was born in Zaun, you know, a long time ago when it was just known as the “Undercity”. Maybe you weren’t even been born yet.

-I was, but I was like 2. Why did I never see you, then?

-Because shit happened. Ever heard of Vander, the hound of the Undercity?

-Yes, the one Silco freed us from his dirty affairs with the enforcers.

-...what?

-Yeah, Silco! He killed Vander who was going to sell us all to the enforcers.

-That’s a lie! Silco was the asshole! He created the shimmer and a lot of people became addicted to it!

-It was Vander who was found dead filled with that stuff, wasn’t he?

Rage like the one that was in Vi’s look at that was rarely seen, usually reserved to when her sister Powder, or Jinx, did something wrong, like blowing up a building. That little brat was throwing dirt on Vander. She would have made her pay, no matter how many times she had to be shocked.

The girl pointed her strange-looking gun at Vi, again. As soon as the enforcer saw her fist movements, she stepped once and clapped her hands, causing steam and dust to scatter around the two. The electric mage was blinded for a second, enough for Vi to reach and grapple her, holding her like she was a bag.

-Hey! Let me go!

-Oh no, kid, I’ve got so many questions for you!

-I said, let me GO!- she yelled, and as a reaction, she emanated a yellow light, before releasing her powers all around. Everything within a radius of a few meters was electrified, including Vi, who released the girl and fell to her knees.

-Now… It’s you who’s going to answer a few questions…- although she was unharmed, the girl looked tired, having stopped sparkling. She started walking on her spot.

-Who are you? What do you want? Are you with the Baroness?

Vi, heavy breathing, started to talk. -My name is Vi…- she lifted a knee, - I’m here to find my father…- the other knee, -and you… are PISSING ME OFF!-

The girl dashed back after seeing a woman who just got electrocuted getting up ready for more, and after Vi started charging her left gauntlet, which was emitting steam and making noises, she pointed her gun at her and yelled -ULTRASHOCK LASER!-

Before this, Vi knew better than to get closer again without a plan. Unusual for her.

She started running towards her and, once the hand was fully charged, she released the energy accumulated. This would usually result in her dashing in that direction, getting pulled by the gauntlet, but that would have meant getting zapped again. She had to become… creative.

She released the locks of the gauntlet, resulting in a sort of “rocket punch” flying in the direction of the green-yellow-haired girl. The laser hit the hand, somehow dissipating the energy and allowing Vi to dash, grapple and slam her opponent against the ground.

She punched her with her naked fist and put her metal hand against her throat.

-Sparkle again and the gauntlet will crush your neck!- Vi didn’t know that, but neither did the girl -It’s over!

The girl was about to cry -...y-yes.-

-Now, who the fuck are you?!

-M-My name is Zeri… I just wanna help…

The Star Warrior Nutcracker Ch. 2: Battle In The Coal Cellar

In the wall was a tiny mouse hole, and from it came an army of mice, small mouse-like creatures that are simple in appearance. Their bodies are shaped similar to that of a tadpole's and they will either be seen colored red, blue, yellow, or green. Their faces are a peach color and they have two shiny eyes and a mouth. They have two large ears on the top of their heads. Squeakers lack limbs, and have small tails. They were just fluffy little mice like creatures that smell of cinnamon. They marched quietly into the cellar and shushed each other whenever the floor creaked. Then a large mouse emerged from the hole, taller as his army

A towering rat with gray fur dressed in a long jagged red cape. Around his neck, he has a gold bell that appears to be holding up his cloak. His face is shaven and has yellow eyes with dark gray circles around them, above them are thick eyebrows. Although he lavishes himself as a mouse, he has rat-like characteristics, such as sharp fangs and round, floating paws with five yellow fingers, and a large black nose. His scent is a blend of cinnamon and coffee. On his head, he wears a red top hat. He carries around a black cane with a gold tip with a ruby on it.

He Was Their King.

His yellow eyes squinted at the sleeping girl. He chuckled when he saw a gleam around her neck. He leaned over to his two commanding officers.

The first officer is a blue, bulky, bipedal mouse-like creature. He wears a red bandana and a red sleeveless shirt, a single tooth extending out of his mouth. Both of his eyes are concealed by the bandana, in addition to the eyepatch he wears on his left eye.

The second officer is a small bluish-white mouse bearing major resemblance to his underlings, suggesting that he might be highly-intelligent. He has large round ears and a large green mustache which takes up the majority of his face. He is piloting a red flying saucer

“There it is, boys,” he whispered, pointing to the girl’s brooch

“You telling us we came all this way for that? The small officer said

The small officer choked as the squeak king gripped him around his neck “that ‘cheap piece of costume jewelry’ is the only thing standing in our way, doc! Now go get it before the girl wakes up!”

The little mouse zoomed in his saucer to the sleeping girl. The saucer pulled out a mechanical arm and reached for the brooch. As the arm touched it, a bolt of electricity shot out of it, sending doc flying backwards and causing him to crash into a coal pile. The squeak king slapped himself on the forehead.

“Imbeciles,” he mumbled. “The squeakers could’ve been more effective and practical than this!” he stomped over to his minions and pushed them to the ground. “Watch and learn, Idiots!”

The squeak king crept to the girl and grinned evilly as his eyes beheld the gold brooch

“Yes,At last,” he chuckled, holding out his gray paws. “Nothing will stand in my way nowAAAAAAH!”

He jumped back as the brooch burned his paws. His yellow eyes were wide with confusion, but he growled in anger. He looked above the girl. He paused as he got a good look at the girl’s face.

The innocence it held was mesmerizing and he found himself running his hand through her soft, black hair.

“Pretty thing,” he mused “almost feel sorry that i have to take your precious brooch away”

But as he touched the silk ribbon, it had the same effect. The squeak king gritted his teeth and clenched his hand into a fist. He cursed the witches for not telling him the brooch was enchanted! Then again, he should’ve guessed as much for something so powerful.

After a moment, he relaxed and smiled down at the girl

“No matter,” he said calmly but intimidating. “If we can’t take the brooch, we’ll just have the girl”

“You shall not touch her, you fiend!”

The squeak king gasped as a blue figure hopped and lashed out a sword the size of a pin. It was the nutcracker

“You!” the squeak king shouted “but...how?”

“Have at thee, Daroach!” the nutcracker challenged. “Leave the girl be and face your demise!”

“Stay out of this, metaknight! I was merciful turning you into wood rather than killing you! Let me go about my business and it will stay that way!”

“Your fight is with me! Leave adeleine Alone!”

“On the contrary, Nut Boy, this has nothing to do with you! I’m here for the girl. Just let me take her, and i’ll be on my way”

“Over my dead body!”

“Why? What’s she to you? Don’t you already have a girlfriend?”

“I would be with her, if it weren’t for you!”

“Oh yes, That’s right”

“The only way you’re going to get this girl is if you kill me!”

daroach rolled his eyes “Fine, if that’s the way you want to play it” he drew out a golden rod with a small box-like item on the end with a star symbol on each side of the cane. “All i want is the girl, but having the pleasure of destroying you is an added bonus”

He swiped the rod at the nutcracker, but he quickly ducked out of his swing.

“This isn’t a fair fight, daroach!” metaknight mocked “pick on somebody your own size!”

daroach ignored his comment and swung at him again, gasping as he nearly cut the girl

“Very well,” he snorted. The nutcracker leapt off and faced his opponent

“Just like old times, old chump,” daroach smirked, the chances of his survival were pretty high

The officers prepare to attack, but their leader raised his hand

“Don’t help, he’s mine!”

Daroach charged forth and there with a loud clang as metaknight blocked his blow.

“Why are you here, you rat?” the nutcracker demanded as he thrust his blade towards his adversary

“I told you,” the squeak king replied as he defended himself. “All i want is the girl”

“Why? What do you want with the girl?”

“That is my business and my business alone! If you had not meddled in my affairs long ago, you wouldn’t be in this mess”

The sounds of the foes fighting was enough to wake adeleine. her eyes fluttered open as she wearily lifted her head to see what was making the noises. She clutched her hand to her chest and realized that her nutcracker was gone

She lifted the thin blanket, but could not find him. Then she heard another clang and spun around to see her nutcracker over by the furnace, fighting, another small soldier she could not identify. She shook her head and closed her eyes

“I must be dreaming”

But when she opened them again, the strange battle was still going on. Surrounding the two foes was an army of little mice. The whole scene was bizarre to the girl.

“Did i just hit my head?” she questioned, putting her hand to her head

She didn’t understand what was going on, but frightened her that this horrifying rat was trying to hurt her nutcracker. The enemies’ weapons were pushing against each other, and the nutcracker was losing the struggle

Determined to save her beloved nutcracker, adeleine raced over to the battle. The squeakers scrambled so they wouldn't be stepped on by the large lady

“Looks like you’ve lost your touch, nut boy,” Daroach sneered

He screamed and dropped his rod as a giant hand snatched him up. adeleine brought the large rat to her furious face

“Leave him alone!” she bellowed

“Damn!” Daroach cursed “i forgot about you”

He was angry at the moment but couldn’t help admiring her enormous brown eyes and her fiery spirit. He smirked at the giant girl

“Now, don’t you think you should pick on someone your own size?”

The little gold bell around his neck glowed around her and Adeleine dropped the squeak king as he grew bigger. She glanced around and saw that the whole room was getting bigger. No! She was getting smaller! The shrinking stopped when she was half the size of the nutcracker with the cellar now the size of a gigantic cathedral.

“Wha..” she started to say

She looked up as she heard the squeaker chuckle, towering over her. He is so big that she thinks he’s going to swallow her whole and alive!

“Now, my little lady,” he sneered, “you’re mine”

She backed away as he slowly approached her

“Wh-who are you?” she stammered

“Oh yes, how rude of me” he bowed slightly, tipping his hat, Sliding with easy grace to his feet and taking hold of his hat, looking perfectly Etiquette.“my name’s Daroach, but my subjects call me… the squeak king”

Adeleine gasped “the...the squeak king?”

“Ah! You’ve heard of me then? Then you know why i’m here”

“Y-you’re here to hurt my nutcracker!”

“What, Him? He just happened to be here”

adeleine stopped as her back hit the wall. The squeak king smirked as he had her cornered and stuck his cane out at her

��No. i’m here for you, my dear”

She stared up at him in fright “M-me?”

daroach shrieked as metaknight’s sword poked him in the rear, causing him to drop her. He spun around and growled at his foe

“You’ll have to go through me first, You rat!” the nutcracker declared

Daroach narrowed his eyes ”so be it!”

“Mistress adeleine, Run!”

adeleine didn’t hesitate and slipped away from the squeak king

“No!” daroach cried while shielding himself from the nutcracker “squeakers, grab the girl!”

Adeleine squealed as the squeakers chased after her. The nutcracker saw her plight and looked over at the mouse hole. He pulled out his sword shouting “Waddle Dees, Charge!”

Out of the mouse hole were not mice, but strange creatures marched out. They have tan, pear-shaped faces, chestnut-colored eyes and no mouth. They have a round body, honey colored feet, small stubby arms, and rosy cheeks. Many of them brought out their spears. Two other knights, unlike the strange creatures appear to be metaknight’s commanding officers. and charge towards the squeakers

“Attack!”metaknight commanded

This diverted the squeakers’ attention from adeleine and towards the approaching army. Adeleine used their momentary distraction to escape and hid behind the coal pile

She heard a cry and turned to see the squeak king leading her nutcracker towards the fireplace of the furance. A few more steps and he would be burned alive! adeleine gasped as the nutcracker’s sword was pulled out of his grasp. Daroach then pointed his cane at the nutcracker.

“It’s over, you miserable, second-rate hunk of wood” he chuckled

Thinking fast, adeleine removed one of her slippers and threw it at the squeak king. It hit him square in the back of his head

“Ow!” he cried, spinning around. “Who threw that?!”

He growled when he saw Adeleine run from his sight. Meanwhile, metaknight scrambled for his weapon.

“Idiots!” daroach howled “I told you to get her!” he sighed “I have to do everything myself!”

The nutcracker charged him from behind, but daroach managed to turn around just in time. He used his hands to pin the nutcracker to the ground.

“Sorry to cut our battle short, nut boy,” daroach smirked, “but i have a little lady to catch”

“No,” metaknight uttered, attempting to rise

Three squeakers pounced on the nutcracker as the squeak king pursued the girl

As soon as adeleine saw that the squeak king was after her, she searched frantically for a place to hide.She then looked up at an old crate. She ran to the crate and slip through a small hole

daroach chuckled at her action “silly girl, thinking she can hide from me”

He went into the hole after her. He scanned the inside, trying to determine which piece of object the girl was hiding behind

“Where are you, my pretty~?” daroach called in a singsong voice “come out, come out, wherever you are!”

With a swipe of his paw, he turned over the pot and found nothing underneath

“While i do enjoy a fun game of hide-and-seek now and then, i simply haven’t the time right now”

He pushed over a tool box but was again unsuccessful

“I promise i won’t hurt you, lovely. I’ll make sure no harm comes to you, whatsoever”

He kicked a box of matches, but that, too was empty

“you can run, but you can’t hide because i can smell your blood”

Meanwhile, adeleine Was Pressed up against the inside of an old cigar box. The darkness of the small box frightened her, but she was more afraid of the rat lurking outside as she held her breath from the bad smell of tobacco. What did he want with her?

“In fact,” he called, “why don’t you make things easy for us both and just hand over that pretty brooch of yours?”

adeleine puts her hand to her brooch. What did he want of her brooch? Why would he go through all this trouble for that?

“Your choice, my dear”

She held her breath as she heard him stop outside in front of the box

“Very well. If you won’t give yourself up, I’ll just have to hurt your precious nutcracker”

She gasped in fright. She realized her mistake too late to put her hand to her mouth. The box’s lid flung open and the squeak king grinned at the sight of her

“Gotcha!“

adeleine screamed as he snatched her up and flung her over his shoulder

“Let go of me!” she yelled, furiously beating her fists against his back

“My, my, my,” daroach snickered. “You’re a feisty one, playing coy, aren’t you? How charming!”

She did not reply, only continued pounding him

“Shhh, shhh,” he whispered, stroking her back “There there,none of that now. I promise you won’t be hurt”

She didn’t listen and persisted in trying to wrench herself out of grasp as he carried her. Meanwhile, metaknight struggled to fight off the squeakers, as did the waddle dees. They were outnumbered, and the squeaks are stronger. metaknight now had five on top of him

“Help!”

He turned at the sound of Adeleine’s voice and saw the squeak king carrying her towards the mouse hole

“Mistress Adeleine!” metaknight cried

He tried to shake the squeakers off his back, but no avail

“Somebody!” he shouted “save her!”

Daroach yelped as he once again felt something hit the back of his head. He turned around and searched for the culprit

“Ok, Seriously, What’s with all the bloody shoe-throwing?!” he demanded

suddenly, something jumped up from behind and grabbed him by the ears.

“Ow!” he cried out

As his head pulled back and he writhed in pain, he lost his grip on Adeleine, who landed on the floor with a thud. She looked up and saw that it was a pink haired fairy was attacking the fiend. he gasped when a pink circle with red feet came charging at him with a spear.

“Take That You brute!”

daroch shrieked as the pink balll started hitting him with the spear while the fairy was pulling his ears out of his scalp. Once he gotten over the shock, he used his arm to throw the pink ball across the room, reached back and grabbed the fairy by the throat. She screamed as he flung her over his head to bring them face to face

“Why you little brat!” He grunted between his teeth “I never liked fairies or children!”

“Hey!” Adeleine exclaimed “You Leave Her alone!”

daroach turned his head towards the pretty girl, who then she’d done something stupid once again and ran off. The fairy squealed as the squeak king dropped her. He brought out his golden rod and resumed his chase

“This girl is really getting on my nerves,” he growled

Adeleine looked around for a new hiding place. She found herself at the bottom of a pile of clutter.She gazed up at it, intimidated by how tall it now was in comparison to her. She glanced over her shoulder and saw the squeak king right on her tail. There was nowhere to go but up

She climbed onto the handle of a shovel. She ran along it until she reached the trunk. Grunting in annoyance, daroach went up after her. adeleine shrieked as she made her way up climbing. Normally, daroach would’ve high jump her into his arms, but he was too endorsed into the thrill of the chase to bother.

“You may be difficult, my pretty” he shouted up to her, “but you know what they say: the harder they catch, the better they are!”

He caught up to her and adeleine ducked behind a box of light bulbs. She squealed when he pierced his golden rod through the bulb, shattering it. She climbed upwards as fast as she could.

“You can’t run forever!” daroach taunted

adeleine was panting as she climbed faster and faster. Soon, she found herself at the top of the pile of clutter where a wood crate stood. She looked around frantically. Where she go now? There was nothing but open space, now nowhere to hide.

She gasped when she heard a dark chuckle behind her. She spun around and collapsing in fear. The squeak king smiled wickedly as he crept nearer

“You see? He smirked “now there’s nowhere left for you to run. It’s just you and me, my beauty.”

adeleine closed her eyes, preparing for the worst. daroach was taken aback at her sudden look of defeat and lowered his triple star wand.

Yes, a beauty she was. Her eyes were shut in fright, yet her lashes fell gently over them. As she quivered, a strand of her black hair fell over her face. daroach then felt the strange urge to reach out his hand and brush it away

adeleine cautiously opened her eyes, confused by the gray squeaker's unexpected gesture. Her brown eyes met his yellow ones that dilated as they fixated on her. adeleine became even more confused, as he seemed to be looking at her not with malice, but...tenderness

Adeleine’s eyes went wide with surprise and Her cheeks were red as a blooming red rose. At first she was terrified, but the girl gasped and put her hand to her mouth and said "Oh!".

“A beauty indeed…” he murmured. For a shrunken girl, She's Charming Than Any Porcelain Doll And Cuter Than Any Rag Doll.

Neither of them saw that the golden bell around the squeak king’s neck started glowing, as did adeleine’s brooch. They didn’t even notice the two trinkets slowly rising, reaching out to each other, bringing their bearers closer together

Once she realized that their faces were only a few inches away, adeleine snapped herself back into reality and backed away

“Don’t you dare touch me!”

daroach quickly shook off her sensations and regained his malicious composure

“My dear, i fear that might be quite impossible, as I can’t take you without touching you”

“Now, come along, my dear” daroach smirked. He lunged forward and grabbed her arm. As soon as he did, a light, a bright flash, brighter than the sun pulsed from adeleine’s brooch and knocked daroach back with such a great force that released his hold on the girl and fell from the pile to the floor. The squeakers gasped at the sight of their leader falling and some of them rush to his aid in the form of a pile just in time to catch him. His hat was removed as he put his hand to his head.

“Oh, my aching head…” he groaned

His eyes widened when he noticed the waddle dees approaching him

“Retreat!” he bellowed

The squeakers ceased their fighting and rushed into mouse hole

“This isn’t over yet, my pretty!” daroach shouted up to adeleine as the squeakers carried him off

adeleine waited until the last bit of the squeaks has disappeared into the mouse hole before climbing back to the ground

“Goodness…”

“are you alright?”

She gasped and turned sharply towards the nutcracker slowly approaching her, holding her slipper in his hand. She was silent as he gently slid it on her foot. She couldn’t help but think he looked even handsomer at this size, but shook it off when she remembered her situation.

“You’re…” she stammered, “You...and that…”

She looked around at the waddle dees

Her eyes rolled back as her legs gave out beneath her. The nutcracker caught her before she hit the floor

“Wow!” the fairy marveled “she’s even prettier at this size!”

“Poyo” the pink ball nods in agreement

adeleine’s eyes slowly opened and she glanced around to find that her surroundings had not changed

“I’m not dreaming, am I?”

Everyone shook their heads

“I’m afraid this is quite real,” metaknight said as he helped her to her feet

“You’re alive,” adeleine uttered “all of you?"

She yelped as the fairy flung her arms around her waist

“Finally!” the little fairy squealed “Now i get to hug you back!”

“ribbon!” said metaknight “you’ll overwhelm the poor girl!”

“ribbon?” adeleine said in awe

“Yup!” ribbon exclaimed, stepping away. “And that’s kirby”

“Hi!” The little pink ball jumped and waved

metaknight bowed “We are all at your service, my lady”

The commanding officers and the other soldiers did the same; as do kirby and ribbon. adeleine’ face flushed pink

adeleine gazed at the nutcracker in awe.

So the story was right, then” she whispered “you are a prince!”

metaknight frowned “I was going to be, anyway, until that fiend daroach cursed me and took my queen”

“queen”

“The fairy queen,” he sighed, gazing off into space “My queen”

“So that was really him? The squeak king?”

“Yes,” the nutcracker growled “I’m not sure how he found me, but apparently wasn’t looking for me”

All eyes were on adeleine and she hid her face behind her hands

“Whatever does he want adeleine for?” ribbon inquired

“Nothing good, that’s for sure!” the sword knight huffed

“That puzzles me as well,” metaknight said, rubbing his chin. “I mean adeleine’s just an ordinary Girl” he looked down at her “No offense. It’s just i don’t understand why he would want you you in particular”

adeleine touched her golden brooch “he...he said he wanted my brooch”

“Really? Ribbon said, taking a closer look at the pendant. “It’s a pretty thing, that’s for sure, but it’s nothing the squeak king would get so worked up about”

“But it did something!” adeleine pointed out “I saw it! It knocked the squeak king senseless!”

“Still I don’t know how it did that! she insisted “He...he touched me and it started glowing and I don't know what happened exactly!”

“Hmm,” metaknight pondered, staring at the necklace. “Maybe it’s not just some cheap piece of costume jewelry after all. I Wonder…”

He reached out and touched the brooch. He retracted his hand with a yelp

“You. there’s certainly some sort of magic in it”

“Did it hurt you?” adeleine asked, taking his hand

“Just a little, but i don’t think anyone can touch it”

“But when i touch it, it does nothing”

“Maybe because you’re wearing it. That would explain why daroach decided to take you instead of just taking the brooch”

“But why? What’s so special about it? You know, besides the strange magic?”

“I’m not sure, but if daroach wants something magical, it must be for something dangerous. Best that you keep that brooch on so he doesn’t get his hands on it”

adeleine froze “You mean he might come after me again?!”

“Most likely, daroach’s a very persistent man. No doubt he regain his bearings, he’ll plan another attack”

Adeleine gulped and glanced at her huge surroundings. “Oh, dear! Everything’s so big! What should happen if my matron wakes up and finds me the size of a mouse?”

metaknight stepped toward the mouse hole and squinted into the darkness

“Daroach and the squeaks came through here. This must be an entrance into the land of dreams”

Adeleine shivered “Do you really think he’ll come back?

“If he does,” sword knight said, drawing out his sword, “We’ll be ready”

“We can’t just sit and wait for him to attack again,” metaknight pointed out. “He might bring more squeakers next time. We barely got out of this battle alive. If we’re going to defeat the squeak king once and for all, we’ll have to attack him when he least expects it”

ribbon peered into the mouse hole “You’re not going in there, are you?”

“I Must,” the nutcracker said, drawing his sword. “He’s holding my queen captive. It is my sworn duty to rescue her! Because I was powerless.... She was locked away in the castle, where she remains now”

“What about me?” adeleine demanded “I mean the squeak king is after me, not to mention i’m now much smaller than him

metaknight lashed his rapier “It’s possible that if the squeak king dies, all of his enchantments, including the one he has on you, will be broken”

The young lady’s eyes widened in horror “You’re not going to kill him, are you?”

It’s the only way,” the nutcracker insisted, “If I am ever to be reunited with the fairy queen and you are ever to be your size again”

“We’ll Join you on your quest” sword knight said, saluting his superior

metaknight shook his head. “No, sword knight. If we bring an army to the land of dreams, daroach will see us coming. I Must go alone and catch the squeak king while he’s off-guard”

“But the squeakers!” Blade knight reminded him “You won’t stand a chance fighting them alone!

“Even if you slay the squeak king,” sword knight said, “No doubt the squeakers will attack you!”

The nutcracker rubbed his chin in thought. “Then wait until you wake again tomorrow night. If this portal takes me to the edge of the land of dreams, it will take at least a day’s journey to get to the castle on foot. Wait twenty-four hours before following me. daroach might be too distracted waiting for my arrival to notice an army approaching. Even if he does notice you coming, he’ll take his focus off of me. Either way, we can use it to our advantage”

The general nodded and saluted again.

Then the fairy noticed that something glittered in pocket of Adeleine's white robe. She asked “What is it?”

Young lady dug in her pocket and took out her paintbrush that shimmered with all the colors of the rainbow. Ribbon squeaked ”You have a magic sign!”

“Wait, What ?” adeleine asked questionly

“Well, this may seem like an abrupt .question, but… do like colors or drawing?”

“Yep, I do love love them both!” Adeleine smiled

“I’ve grown up among all the colors of the rainbow Ever Since i was born”

She looked the brush and realized it might be a wand that brings drawings to popping out and come to life

Maybe she might accompanied the nutcracker on journey to the land of dreams

“Wait,” adeleine said, grabbing the nutcracker’s hand. “I’m coming with you”

“Out of the question!” metaknight exclaimed “It could be dangerous! Besides, the squeak king’s greatest enemy traveling with the wearer of an object he desires will attract even more attention! And if we should get captured…”

“I don’t think he can hurt me,” adeleine claimed, touching her necklace. “I think this brooch and this paintbrush protects me somehow. Besides,i can’t stay here! I won’t freeze like the others in the morning. If my wicked matron finds me, she’ll faint, or if she might step on me!”

“She has a point” said sword knight

“And if we should be attacked, at least you’ll be there to protect me”

metaknight sighed in defeat. “Alright, but don’t say i didn’t warn you”

“We’ll come along too!” ribbon volunteered

“Oh no,” adeleine insisted “I couldn’t ask you to…”

“We’re not as fragile as we look!” ribbon huffed holding kirby like a ball

“Are you certain? metaknight asked the two “the journey’s long and if we are attacked We’ll give those ruffians what-for!”

He sighed. “It’s settled then. adeleine and these two will accompany me, and the rest of you will follow tomorrow night. Any objections?”

Everyone was silent

“Very well.” the nutcracker took Adeleine’s hand “You ready, my lady?”

Iris looked into the darkness of the mouse hole. The path ahead of her frightened her, but she knew she had to be brave. She had to get back to her own size and she had promised herself that she would protect the nutcracker at all costs. Now that shew the story had been true, she could not rest until her nutcracker was reunited with his true love

She took a deep breath and nodded. “I’m Ready”

trying to outrun five monstrous Jaguars will also try to make sure we don't get our legs bitten off by a Jacobs ladder gator monster

Mictecacihuatl was pacing as she saw her husband Mictlantecuhtli and then she saw the rest of the Aztec underworld council all whispering and murmuring to each other there was even some Mayan deities here they are also panicked as well.

she and Mictlantecuhtli were the rulers since the other gods were In need of a rule in order to manage the souls from both Maya and Aztecs they kept flooding in after the foreigners came and ruined everything so they thought that they were two good choices.

"well, where is Xolotl?" asked Xocotl who was sitting next to the Mayan god Acolmiztli who was siting next to Techlotl who was half owl which was a elf owl. they all look to the king who sighs "Thanks to my wife's efforts three demigod people are coming over and he's guiding them here just stand the Fortress till they get here."

well then a I started moving in and they had the optic nerve still attached to them and then soon a lower jaw full of teeth arrived and then slowly as they waited human person arrived it was Remus the kid of Mars who died due to their brother being an absolute weirdo he was half wolf considering his affiliation with them and he could shape shift between human and wolf most the time he was like a satyr instead of a goat and a human it was a wolf and a human.

Remus always looked like and was a 28-year man. who had brown hair with streaks of gray hair his eyes were wild, and his grin even wilder he had a gold tooth on one of his canine teeth he also had a couple tattoos specifically one on his shoulder that was of one of an octopus.

he was wearing a tank top which was cropped around mid-torso and short which around mid-thighs, and he had fish nets on his legs that was in the middle of his legs and around the knees going to area. he was wearing a belt around his waist, and it also had a bunch of pouches on it and also two sheaths for two daggers.

he had wolf features similar their lower half often have goat features.

his wolf tail was grey, he had wolf ears on his human ears. he had some fur on his shoulders and neck, he had some scars on his nose and jaw. he also had a couple rings on his finger and a choker which had a silver squid.

"hello everyone Alright it got a little bit more longer than i thought so I found out what's the problem what's causing the lockdown it is two Titans and about three demigod people that are still followers of Kronos it has been so long since the Kronos war situation and they're still going strong but they're not exactly in the Aztec underworld yet they are still stuck the in between areas of the tunnels leading from the Roman underworld to this underworld we are still fine but still keep it on lockdown." he looked sad and scared.

this causes an uproar of whispers murmurs mutters and growls, and all of their glares were focused on him he raised up his hands in defense and says, "don't blame me don't not shoot the Messenger it took me forever just to get past those people sorry." Mictlantecuhtli and Mictecacihuatl nodded, and she was sitting on her throne, and she spoke "well it is alright Remus."

Mictecacihuatl had a body a skeleton incased in skin of inky black that allowed the bones to seen. she had the Regal aura of Queen that you would expect but her husband did a very powerful dominating or around him even though he was relatively chill he was a very particular on how it's underworld and the souls inside of it was run.

she was wearing cloth which was in two parts one was the coat which was a cloak and shawl. on the top where the neck and head hole was blue, white skulls and she had a skull face, but it stopped around her top lip and there was white swirls and stripe on her jaw and chin. Jason was looking at her with the sun high in the sky which allowed them to see her better.

Her ears had dish which hung off of her ears and there was leave or feather shape hanging off the blueish grey dish there was a messy red dot in the middle of the disks. on her skirts was fringe same with the edges of shawl. The colors of the outfit were green, purple, blue and greyish.

The dress was close fitting but still hung on her form. Her hair was dark brown and down up with strips of blue fabric and on her head was crown with grey silver stones and small rat skulls. The crown was holding the first bubble in her hair and that had feathers on the back in the colors of purple, grey blue and blue.

Her eyes were warm burning amber, on the eyelids was an orange color and there something fluffy on the where the eyebrows would be. she just looked at her husband who finally stopped Pacing around like a warrior war and sat in town finally letting his worried nerves and muscles finally rest and he said Remus "go find some people to stop those people trying to break through."

Remus nodded and then pulled his weird Cheshire cat disappearing act.

Jason was standing on the threshold between the actual space in them to do the challenge and the hallway behind them he thankfully had an unidentified amount of hours of sleep he felt way better even though his head still was kind of sore from getting clawed at and having bandages on it but thankfully it had collaborated enough so the blood wouldn't drain out of him but he still kept the bandages on his head but they had in fact used duct tape in order to keep them on.

his legs are still a lot we're a little bit shakier than usual, but Leo was watching the blood but both of them saw debris that looked an awful lot like the best friends their partners and their very close allies as body parts and heads and then they saw certain logs that reminded them too much of an alligator or a crocodile's snout.

Nico then spoke "so we're gonna have small bags of rocks tied to our ankles and we're supposed to run through that also not trying to die to the Jacob's ladder crocodile Gator Monster underneath the surface of blood ew that is disgusting."

Xolotl busted out laughing " So all of the years that the Jacob's Laboratory has been invented never have I heard them being used in such a manner." then Jason said, "where's our weapons?"

then Xolotl looks around and the down "look in front of you and look down at that step before you there should be some weapons there. Leo will get two considering he was given the obsidian and iron knife earlier."

then Leo asked, "what else?" he asked snarkier and more forceful he looked a little bit mad "OH about five multi-headed multi-limbed multi-tail jaguars, courtesy of smoking mirror."

well Nico looks at the blood where water should be and the smell of Warrington dying flush, I was also swarmed by the metallic and iron-like scent of blood it reminded him too much of Tartarus and asphodel. he looks at the other two and they didn't see the bruises and small scrapes on Leo, but the big head wound that Jason had plus more of his bruises and small lacerations and scrapes all over his body were concerning he was scared that both Leon Jason would die he wouldn't let that happen.

well, Xolotl was now Tying these small little bags of stones to each of their ankles, and he looked to Jason and said, "some of your wind powers will be useful but you still can't access most of your godly powers sorry." Jason nodded and accepted his possible fate of death.

Nico felt the weight of the rocks on his ankles. he sighed and spoke "okay... i am ready." then Leo Readjust his tool belt said "well if I die do not forget me!" both Jason and Nico turned her in and said "no one is dying."

then Xolotl spoke "okay you need to follow me by the fire light of the torture I'm holding and when I stop at a certain point you need to get there before you get before you die because this is not like if you were already dead." his voice was low and serious is this like growls of as they just noticed the same Jaguars that he had described earlier those were stone and there's like cracking as if something was waking up.

then Nico took the first few steps into the river of blood Leo followed in suit while Jason grabbed the weapons and gave them to Nico and Leo. Jason got a sword Nico got a club which had spikes of obsidian on them and looked as if he could do some heavy damage and Leo got more knives.

they were running and they were using the rocks as a way to guide them past these semi-strong currents of the blood water and the rocks thankfully were the safest to breed to use on as they saw body parts from all their friends and allies and even lovers they all knows though they all knew most of those were fake delusions but Nico was mostly frozen as he saw bit of will floating in the blood so Jason usually would pick up Nico as they walked slashed waddled through the blood.

"come on where is the--" and there was the squash of blood and when they all looked behind them with anticipation and fear they saw the monstrous Jaguars about 5 of them with teeth so sharp that they could probably cut through the hide of the lion which Hercules wore as clothing. then Nico curses in Italian as they picked up their speed for Jason it was a lot harder and slow for him thanks to the pounding of his heart now as they quickened their pace which did not help his head injury which he still was dealing with.

leo was screaming and starting to cry as he held up the knives and when he threw one at one of the jaguars it actually set their leg on fire which shocked everyone but no more time for that they had to escape they saw the flame of the torch of Xolotl running ahead and then Jason picks of both Nico and Leo thanks to his strength and his stature he was able to hold them underneath his arms as if he was holding a loaf of bread or a cat and he just booked it out of there even though the weight on his ankles thanks to the small rocks did not help anything.

he did not want Nico or Leo to be harmed so then when they got onto a rock which was flatter than the others he then threw them to the next patch of land which immediately as they were being thrown a snout of a Gator mouth joint thing snapped up almost catching Leo thankfully only 1 of the teeth grazed the skies leg where his pants did not cover right above his ankles.

Nico screamed as his ass hit the ground as he caught Leo as well they both turned around as they saw Leo as they saw Jason pull out one of his other swords that he had gotten from the steps and he just started slashing and hitting at 1 of the Monster Jaguars while the one that got hit with a fire knife that was and the knife was somehow back in Leo's hands the monster screaming and tried to put out the fire while the other three were starting to surround Jason.

then Nico screamed "fucking hell no!" then he got his club and then ran over and sprung it on one of the massive paws of the Jaguar which made it lose its balance which got him which gave him the ability to smack the club so hard on the cat's head with these spikes of the obsidian on the club to him squaring the skull and the cracking of bone could be heard from that then Jason finally able to save both him and Nico.

so he grabbed Nico had done the same way he did before the room back on that patch of land and just jump from that stone all the way over he was also nearly killed by that crocodile snout joint thing.

Leo was desperately trying to help them as he collected the other two knifes he got plus the new iron and obsidian one he had gotten from the first challenge and as Jason said panting almost really exhausted he said "all right that's enough let's go let's go just keep running do not look back I will defend your business can Nico and Leo do not look back whatever you don't... do not look back and try to help me OK I will do this myself." the Jason was cut off "but no you--" Leo was cut off by Jason as they were running "You have to listen to me Leo this is a do or die situation!"

and that should up both of them as all three we're now running in the water not caring if they actually snapped on a snout of a crocodile or gator joint mouth thing.

then Leo Had the Superb genius plan made in pure desperation and fear and adrenaline high was to smoke bomb the blood he grabbed him to the smoke bombs lit the dang thing threw it so hard into the water and it actually caused the majority of the joints that had the mouths on them just snap up and annoyance as these stinging smoke probably hit their eyes.

Jason yelled "fucking hell!" the grabs Leo as he is almost killed by one of the mouths as it almost shut down around his leg like a bear trap jason then uses a bit of his wind power to give himself a little bit of a boost as he throws them to the next nearest safe rock as he literally stabs the crocodiles mouth the top of its entire skull and then books it.

they both saw his fear In the set of Jupiter's eyes they both wanted to help but they had one goal surviving they did get bruises and scrapes from being touched and being thrown and running and bumping into debris like wood seaweed which made them trip a little bit but the smell of rotting flesh and iron and metallic like this metallic scent from the blood and the bodies overwhelmed their sense of smell.

"come on Jason!" yelled Leo. Leo was regretting a ever lighting that bomb on fire it was going to doom his best friend to die.

leo was panicking his breath soon picked up but then Leo was smacked by Nico "this is not a time to panic we can panic when we get out of here!" he yelled desperation tears welled up in his eyes as they ran through the blood through the bodies and debris making sure they didn't die to the bear trap mouths of this monster deep underneath the blood Leo then turned him and yelled "but then Jason's gonna die!?" fire was gathering on his palms and neck.

"well you'll die out soon and you are caught panicking!" yelled Nico with fear and anger they both were breathing heavily as they ran they saw the flickering fire of the torch their safety they were halfway there he turned around once and they saw Jason running and stabbing the Jaguars that followed them.

Leo set the blade part of his knives on fire and threw it back onto the Jaguars they hit with relatively accurate mostly sticking to the haunches the back legs and the front legs of these monsters the one that had been set on fire first came back with more ferocity more anger they could hear the snarls the growls and the hissing of these Jaguars.

which was powered their fear and adrenaline more the lakes were getting numb, but they could not stop running as more of these bear trap mouthed joint things continued to go off the more, they had to zip around if they were panic rabbits.

then Nico went back to one of the rocks as grab the hand of Leo as they see other one of these bear trap mouth Snap up almost catching Leo's back parts of his legs it was Achilles tendon. the blood Made small waves which crashed up against this bigger rock and the eyes of that part of the creature blinked with anger so tried to go up more, but Leo said his palm on fire and burnt a handbrake onto the monster which causes it to crash back down into the blood they were both on the rock.

Leo then starts to laugh and cry as he yells "Jason is going to die! and it's all my fault you cope if I hadn't made the smoke bomb we wouldn't have this." he gestures out openly to the monster Cipactli which was trying to kill Jason and the Jaguars are time teaming the monster then Jason yelled stabbing one of the mouths taking out the sword and then running using his wind powers he was still able to use.

he moved himself to the rock with the other two kids were even though they were well adults they were still children crying on a rock because of the monster is trying to kill them.

Jason then grabbed both of them in his arms and started to run and he said we're going to live and then as he jumped onto another flat piece of land which was a safe area for them to catch the rough bed before he collapsed.

they were 2/3 of the way there but then one of the mouths grabbed at Jason's arm the back part thankfully Leo grabbed one of his knives the obsidian and iron one and stabbed it into the snout of this creature.

They got a better look at it looks like a part date or part alligator part fish and there were millions of jaws on every single joint of its body it was huge it was truly a Jacob's ladder crocodile fish gator it made them all sick as they all ran again not caring if they're beating lung if their lungs burned with a lack of oxygen they needed to run.

Nico almost stumbled into the blood but Jason grabbed him by his shirt hoisted him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes as he had Leo underneath his arm and he just ran did not care for his own legs screamed for rest screamed for a break he kept pushing forward and forward he would not let his two best friends who he see who he saw as brothers die he could prevent it even if it costed his own life.

then he spoke "oh please lady Salus please protect us!" he says as they ran and got bruises from the rocks and other debris and Nico continued to panic more finally letting this panic attack settle in as he saw more and more body parts as lover at will he couldn't let that happen and Jason was panting his lungs screamed for air his throat screamed for water and his heart screamed for him to stop his head ached as he felt his heart even beating up there like a war drum.

they finally got to the last leg only a couple more feet of running and they saw one of the Jaguars swipes at the bleeding wound on Jason's arm but instead it got his back on his left side of his ribs on his back.

this causes him to throw the other two and Leo screams as he hits the safe and end of the challenge.

He had several bleeding scrape scrapes and cuts from the rocks debris from his own knives and from the claws and teeth that got him Jason was still out there fighting with 2 bleeding wounds but finally was able to grab him and grab him thankfully they were able to get to safety and when they finally got to the safety where their guide was Jason just collapsed and Leo just sat down his and swaying a little bit as he let his lungs get air Nico just went to a full on panic attack.

"Hey Nico, we did it." spoke Leo who had Several minor averages and a little bit severe wounds and injuries he had a black eye for he landed on one of the rocks he had a bleeding nose several scrapes, cuts and open wounds like that.

Jason looked worse his shirt now staying with blood also parts of his shirt was missing from the Jaguar the clawed atom he looked dazed as he put his head on the ground and rest, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath in and out. Nico was breathing Unevenly and dangerously so Leo held both of his hands and squeezed both of them as Leo was breathing steadily which helped Nico calm down.

Nico was still shaking and panicked he was Still worrying about will think I could die in his body to literally be in that river of blood for all they know but Leo's warm dark slightly broken and scarred hands still squeezed his own as Leo still breathed deeply in and out as an anchor to Nico who was slowly started to feel better but he just let the tears fall he was so tired and this was only challenged too this was challenge two that was concerning this was only challenge number two. Leo looked to Jason who was now passed out which made him panic a little bit then Xolotl check his Heartbeat on his wrist and nap nodded and said Don't worry he isn't dead he's just unconscious.

Leo turned to Nico and said "Will is still at camp half-blood we are safe and sound Xolotl is holding the fire and we have met him with that fire."

Xolotl sighed "oh my chaos... this was the worst way this challenge goes..." he looked so sad and Nico sighs and then he asked Now looking at their blood stained and partially ripped up clothing that's what the clothing situation cause I don't think the rulers of this underworld are going to like us bare without clothing."

"well when we get through the next few hallways we will met Chantico who often leaves clothing and Bandages and stuff like that in the hallways but considering us deities of our pantheon we were always injured in some fashion our clothes were always torn she just never broke the habit and we don't have the heart to tell her to stop thankfully it's good today we still do need the extra bandages and clothing," then he sat down near them and spoke "we usually don't give it out to the mortals cause they're usually dead at this point yeah come on no correction we're gonna wait a little bit for you guys to calm down your breeding hearts cause I can hear them from all the way over here he spoke with his kind but slightly still snarky tone of voice.

"thanks Xolotl." spoke Leo he looked to a tried Nico, and he spoke "rest we don't have to run to the next one yet." he was Smiling calm and warm smile but internally he was panicking he didn't want to die either he just feared that he would fail if he wasn't moral support he was the jokester the one who laughed and cracked jokes and was goofy the moral support not the one who cried and was insecure he was Leo Valdez the very strong child of Hephaestus he wasn't some wimp but a strong tinkerer so he sucked all his negative emotions and bottle them up.

Nico nodded and said "i am fine but you are more wounded than me he said making a wry smile which was pained and forced Leo said "pffft you're wrong I'm the least injured."
