Elyzia & Valfiel's Story

Herobrine stood up and said "sure, I'll play some music later." Herobrine's arms began to sprout a hard black material that covered his arms. Rosa looked in shock, she questioned 'what exactly is this guy!?'. Herobrine turned his head towards Rosa. Rosa quickly turned her head away from Herobrine and and kept quiet. Herobrine slowly turned his head and looked at the tower, some parts of his arms began to turn into a shade of red.

"H-how unfortunate, I should have paced myself better," she says in disappointment. She descended down into one of the massive windows touching down upon the floor coming to an abrupt stop. The impact, without shock, instead sends out ripples into the floor, warping it as if she had landed upon a puddle. She then looks about at the welcoming committee and lets out a sigh. Another battle, it seems. Her colors begin to shift towards the more purple persuasion, obtaining a more vibrant color palette like Laadan, yet her demeanor remains mostly unchanged, if not slightly more sarcastic and tone becoming less timid and more bold. "Well, I'd rather not judge based on appearances... but I presume talking this it out is out of the question?"

Elsewhere a figure had also made his way into the tower. More stealthy are his methods, through a rip within time and space, a small jester-like being with a strange puppet-like mask with three eye-holes. Subtle, so much so that... the rift closes prematurely, snagging his ragged cloth before he can fully exit, causing him to tumble into a roll and against the tower wall in a most peculiar position. The clownish creature snaps back upright and flees, cowering into a corner, pin spots of eyes deep within darting about in desynchronized directions. The strange clown finds he has drawn no attention, that the guardians of this place have far more pressing issues to attend to.

"Curiouser and curioser," the being mutters in a warped high pitch voice, opting to sneak behind anything and everything as he follows one of the guardians with a presence so unimpressive that he may as well be a mouse an ever so slight jingle with his every step. He then peers out from behind a doorway, watching a rather unusual band of misfits making their grandiose entrance. "And curiouser still."

"Alright lads, you know the drill," Max would yell as the Chosen Ones jumped off Owru. "Let's get to the top of that tower!" The group of heroes would yell their own battle cries.
"Toons of the world, unite!"
"Let loose the pugs of war!"
"Lay down your weapons and no one'll get hurt!"
Jack would run up the dragon's neck and leap from it's head, the banjo still in his hands. He would slam the base of the banjo on a demon's head, stunning it, and would disorientate it further by kicking it somewhere in the pelvic regions.
Fancy would charge at another monster and slash at it diagonal-down. Adam would attempt to behead another with a sideways slash. Finally, Max would attempt an uppercut on a demon which would catapult it through one of the large windows.

"Burn my soul Dandelga, and let us eliminate our foes!" Vargas roared as he ran up the dragons back and jumped off as well, his form was soon earthed in fire and crashed deep behind the monster and demon formations with a big explosion. He soon began to engage every enemy that even dared to get remotely close to him.

Selena sighed as she watched her ally go into the thick of the enemy. "To answer your questions Rosa, Herobrine is a demon that absorbs fallen demons to gain more power. He is also a jerk that plays tricks on people and makes them relive things they don't want..." She glared at Herobrine through her entire explanation before turning to face the new personality that replaced Orwu. "Great to meet you, however let us clear the tower before we know your name." She nodded as he jumped off the dragon and landed in the massive empty clearing Vargas had made to watch his back.


The two sisters both decided to join with the toons leaving the more dangerious battle to the heroes. Witch their scythes in hand(and musical instruments tucked away) they assisted the toons as the monsters began to swarm.

The monsters and demons soon poured from all direction, some flying ones even swooping through windows. They were hell Henry on defending the tower.

Herobrine jumped off the dragon and landed in the clearing. "I said I was sorry, but those weren't your memories they were mine, I can remove them if you want me to" Herobrine suggested.

Rosa jumped off the dragon and landed many meters away from Herobrine (because she is afraid of him) "I'll just be over here" Rosa stated while beginning to sit down.

"No need to be afraid of me, I only pick on people who can fight back" Herobrine gave Rosa a comforting smile. "Oh and hold onto this for me please" Herobrine took off his hoodie and threw it to Rosa.

"Oh... umm ok" Rosa said quietly as she caught Herobrine's hoodie.

Herobrine charged into Battle attacking every single demon that came into his view.

"Still Owru, I think, just borrowin' strength of will from one my siblings," she responds quickly, her dialect becoming slightly more coarse. She then swings her entire body around swatting multiple monsters and demons with her tail that popped in from the window behind her. "Better that way, she'd be eatin' the tower."

With that she began to bound around the field, somewhat more showy than her normal performance of support. Eyes squinted, she stands up on her legs and folds both her lower arms, goading the guardians of the temple into attacking her, before boxing each of them with her upper arms. Despite her light weight, the strikes carry a powerful force, hurling them through the air.

"I can see why Laadan likes being big, you feel unstoppable," she exclaims, cracking into laughter, cut short as she gets thwacked on the back of the head by a demon. In response the draws back her neck thwacking the demon back. She then holds out her arms and shakes her head. "Well, almost! Ha ha! Ow. Who else wants to play!?"

Swarms of demons were now attempting to surround the toons, with little success. Several defenders were now running around without their heads like chickens, the wounds smoking from the holy zeal of Adam's sword. Demons were limping away from the fight covered in lacerations from the giant pencil that Fancy was now swinging with almost-ballerina grace. Jack was somewhere within the fray, bouncing on several demons' heads and whacking them with his now dismantled banjo. Somewhere else, demons exploded in a circle around Max, whose ground slam sent waves of expended kinetic energy around him.
"Are we gonna stay here and fend of these demons forever or are we heading up?" yelled Adam within the crowd of headless demons.
A guardian was catapulted into a flying demon by Max, knocking them both down. "Make way!" Max said, carving a path to the nearest staircase with force the cave trolls must have used carving the mountains of the primal worlds. "We've got somewhere to go!"

"We are heading up this tower! Now get out of my way monsters!" Vargas began to carve his way to the stairs slashing apart anything that got in his way, Selena right behind him.

The two sisters pushed with the toons. Carefully cutting them down with their scythes.

Hunters of monsters and demons continued to assault them still.

Herobrine quickly noticed that everyone else I heading up the tower, he quickly ran to Rosa and grabbed her arm " we wouldn't want to leave you here to face all of the enemies alone" Herobrine exclaimed as he dragged Rosa with him to the tower. Herobrine quickly caught up with everyone else.

Owru made her way up the stairs, charging through whatever unfriendly got in her way. Just how far were they going to have to go to get to this gate? Wouldn't it have been easier to provide this from the start with minimal drama? Then again, the other gods would likely become suspicious. "At least it won't be dull, I suppose."

As she charges onward, she caught a hint of something from the corner of her mind, an alarm rings from the pit of her being, not noticing the jester-like creature that was hidden in a corner.

"Another outsideUFF," the jester exclaims, puppet-like mouth hinging open as he's trampled underfoot by Owru. "Ow..."

"What," she mutters, looking around to see nothing. "Coulda sworn I heard someone."

The toons would follow the others up the stairs, shaking a few determined demons off their feet. Among the swarm of defenders crowding the stairs, they never noticed the trans-dimensional jester, even when they trampled over it in their effort to head to the top. They did, however, feel something odd when they stepped on a small area of stairs, which felt like congealed air.
"Did you feel something?" said Adam.
"Feel what?" said Fancy.
"... Oh. Thought I stepped on a demon there. What do you think their made of here?"
"Oh, I don't know," snarked Max. "The same stuff the monsters are made of? I mean, they're probably the same thing, just with different names."
"Now you mentioned it," said Jack slowly, as if coming to a worrying conclusion. "I think I did feel thomething down there. Felt kinda thwuithy."
A crowded silence followed as they contemplated this.
"Yeah, that's what I felt," said Adam. "Like if you made clothes out of jelly."
Another silence.
"Do you think there are more than one Outsider out there?" said Fancy. "I mean, Owru can't be the only one-"
"Shut up," said Max.

The two sisters soon ran up the stairs when they stepped on something that was not exactly a floor. Of course there was still a horde of very angry monsters and demons after them so they did not have the time to look around. "Woah!...that was weird. What was that sis? Did they just leave a cushion inside the stairs?" Valfiel asked as she took a very quick look around.

"It was weird, but let's focus more on not getting killed sis..." Elyzia replied as she ran.

Vargas soon caught up with the others and marched up his stairs thundering on the stairs and eventually stomped on something soft. He did not pay it any mind however. And Selena was right behind him stepping on something soft. She did look behind her to see what it was but returned to running up the stairs.

Herobrine followed everyone up the stairs still dragging Rosa by the arm, even though he stepped on something soft he just kept running.

"Ouch," the jester mutters, trampled underfoot, not once, but several times in mere seconds between. "Next time... ceiling."

With that the Jester pops back into shape from his flattened condition, then bounds upwards like a rocket, passing through each floor, the physical state of each being momentarily disrupted, briefly taking on a rippling effect like gelatin. "May as well see the destination, rather than the path, would be far less... pressing. Haha."

"These guys are incorrigible," Owru exclaims, looking back, shaking off an unwelcome passenger on her tail. She then looks over at Vargas. "Ey, tiger, got any idea how many stairs this thing has? I feel like if it is too far, it'll be worse for you guys with... y'know, lungs."

"Gods, this is boring," muttered Adam. "Why can't Maxwell just, you know, install an elevator or something instead of having us climb stairs?"
"I don't think she's the type to make life easier for others," said Fancy. "She must think this is some sort of test."
"What, climbing a hundred stories of stairs?" said Max. "I don't remember that being a test of someone's heroism. You don't hear tales of how Hrun the Barbarian once climbed up a flight of stairs and got a medal for it."
"You'd never know, would you?" said Jack. "They probably leave that detail out of the legendth. Maketh it more interethting."
In their bickering, they were completely unaware of parts of the tower shuddering as if the entire fabric of matter contained within the tower was disrupted.

"We have one more floor to go! We did enter from pretty high up so watch the air...going to get thin when he get to the roof!" Vargas called out as the remaining wave of monsters guarding the roof of the tower began to stampede their way.

One last wave until they made it!

Herobrine slowed down due to the lack of oxygen, but he still kept running. Rosa passed out due to the lack of oxygen.

"I'll be fine but Rosa is slowing me down a bit, who wants to carry her" Herobrine asked. Herobrine noticed the slight disruption in the walls but he egnored it because he thought Owru was creating it.

"Totally jinxed that, didn't I," Owru mutters, looking back at the first to pass out as she slaps a demon silly and throws it behind her in a wide arc. With a sigh, her tail tip broadens out and curls into a bowl shape, creating a makeshift cradle. She then snaps her fingers and points to Herbrine. "Eyyy, I gotcha covered, Slugger! Just drop 'er in, it'll be like sleepin' on air!"

She catches some glimpses of distortions in the floor and walls then snaps a glance at Vargas.

"Ey, Tiger! Tell me, spacial disruption normal here, cuz that ain't me, ight?"

The Chosen Few staggered a bit when they fully took into account the spacial disruptions rippling across the tower. In their confusion, they thought one of the steps suddenly sunk down and then sprang up again, launching Fancy forward a few steps. This is definitely not normal behaviour for a building. Either Maxwell was having a bit of fun, or something had found it's way in.
Besides that, they noticed that the air was getting rather thin. Being experienced adventurers, they settled for breathing less, in an attempt to preserve oxygen supply. One last floor and they'll be out of here. Max elbowed an attacking demon behind him in the abdominal regions, catapulting it into a crowd of it's comrades.

"Tiger?....What's a tiger?...Wait never mind that! Spacial distruption are not uncommon, but they don't usually happen. Most of the time it's usually more portals bringing in reinforcements, or a mass of energy being produced, or something is bad happening." Vargas called out as he focused more on incinerating the enemy than the strange happening. Selena however noticed this while engaging the enemy. Her guard was much higher now, including the two sisters who felt the strange anomaly.
