Me: "If you're wondering about when the next chapter for Pink Slime comes out, it'll come. I still am not entirely going well with the Pac x Pinky stuff. Enough of that stuff, let's get down to business here. Here's Chapter 12, being done after I just post Chapter 11. Enjoy. Also, I had just realized this story hit 1,000+ views. WOOHOO! I'll be making a lot of chapters for this now, since I know people like/love my story. Here's the chapter. Thank you so much for staying, reading this story. It really puts joy inside me with you all reading this."


Chapter 12: Deliver Hope

The Roundhouse. 68 hours before certain doom.

Everyone had arrived at the Roundhouse, hoping the Tree of Life didn't die. President Spheros opened the door inside, led Pac and his friends to the door where the Tree of Life was hiding behind, and opened that door, and led Pac and his buddies inside. Spheros closed the door, and stared at the Tree of Life. It was indeed rotting, and not many berries were left.

There were only two Power Berries that haven't rotted yet.

Pac and Cyli looked at each other, and then the remaining berries.

"Well, don't just stand there! Get those remaining berries!" Blinky yelled.

Pac ran up the already dying tree, did a backflip, and snatched the two remaining berries from the tree.

"Whoa, where did you learn to do that?" Pinky said.

"Eh, blame the virtual world me and some of my friends got stuck in." Pac replied with a smirk that melted Pinky on the inside and made her into goo again.

"It's super effective!" Inky said, jokingly.

"Pinky, stop doing that…" Blinky said.

"Yeah, it's getting more disgusting every time you do that." Inky said.

"I think Pac did it to get her off his back." Clyde said.

Pinky was stuttering. "W-well… it's not w-w-working." Pinky said, before melting into goo again.

"What is with her and her obsession with Pac?" Blinky said.

"Well, at least this isn't the universe where Pac and Pinky are…" Clyde said, before getting smashed by a hammer into the wall.

"Whoops, sorry. I forgot I installed that in here to smash Betrayus when he gets in the convient spot." Sir C said with a laugh. Clyde was a pile of goo on the wall. Clyde the Goo Splatter then slid down the wall and reformed back to his ghostly form, faster than Pinky can reform herself.

"How come Clyde is faster to reform himself after getting splattered?" Blinky said.

"Because I don't melt. I guess." Clyde replied.

"… seems legit." Inky said.

"Come on, let's get you to the portal to the Netherworld to stop that bomb from going off. You may have to bring it back to me so I can de-fuse it. I'm always one step ahead, you know." Sir C said.

"I'll be giving information about the enemy and their bombs to Sir C so he can defuse it more quickly." Dylan said.

"Someone's being a show-off…" Pinky said, rolling her eyes.

"Well EXCUUUUSE ME princess, but you're not the one fighting the enemy, are you?" Dylan yelled at Pinky in the face.

"Someone's got anger issues." Pinky said in a tone that sounded emotionless.

Dylan just punched her in the face, beheading Pinky.

"OH, SNAP!" Inky yelled.

Pinky's head appeared on her beheaded torso and she turned towards Dylan, and backhanded his face.

"You son of a…" Dylan started, then beheaded Pinky again, grabbed her beheaded torso, and chucked her into the swing of the security hammer that Sir C installed, splattering Pinky's torso.

"Now THAT'S how you splatter a ghost without the need of Ghostbusters." Dylan said with a smirk.

The ghosts that were not splattered hid when Dylan mentioned 'Ghostbusters'.

"Let's just go already! We're wasting too much time when we should be in the Netherworld by now to get that bomb back over here!" Pac said.

"But you only have two berries, none of us can go with you." Pinky said.

"Me and Cyli will go into the Netherworld, find the bomb, and bring it back here before the remaining hours are all up." Pac said.

"Well, here's a map to the Netherworld." Blinky said, handing a map to Pac.

"Where did you even get a map of the Netherworld?" Cyli said.

"Let's just say Betrayus got eaten by Clyde and then vomited out, but the map stayed inside. He's been looking for it for ages…" Blinky said.

Cyli gave a disgusted face and handed the map to Pac, who didn't seem to mind that the map was in Clyde's mouth.

"Alright, the Paccerchini is outside, ready to go." Sir C said.

"Why do we need the Paccerchini to get to the Netherworld portal?" Cyli said.

"It's the only thing fast enough to get you to the Netherworld in time, to the center of the Netherworld, and back to PacWorld so we can defuse it or send it to space." Sir C said.

"Why send it to space?" Pac said.

"That's plan B in case something goes wrong and you lose the Paccerchini in the Netherworld but still make it back in time." Sir C said.

"Let's go then. Onto the Netherworld!" Pac yelled, running out the door with Cyli.

"… I hate that Cyli girl." Pinky said with a groan. "She gets all the glory." Pinky finished.

Path to the Netherworld Portal. 63 hours before boom-boom.

Pac, Cyli, and Sir C were in the Paccerchini, flying towards the Maze where one of the Netherworld portals were. Hopefully, that portal hasn't been closed up by the PacWorld army yet.

Or so Pac hoped.

Cyli was staring at everything that they flew by. Everyone worked so hard to create much things for PacWorld, and it was going to be gone in 63 hours. With a giant bang.

"We're almost to the Maze." Sir C said.

"All we need is to…" Pac said, before he was interrupted by a huge explosion noise coming from behind a mountain. He quickly looked to that direction.

He saw a lot of airships, firing giant beams of doom towards the planet. They were burning the planet in an attempt to slow down Pac, Cyli, and Sir C from entering the Netherworld. One of the airships was heading for the Maze.

"We gotta get to the Maze before those airships burn it all!" Cyli yelled.

"There's another way out of the Netherworld, right?" Pac said, turning around towards Sir C.

"I believe the Netherworld has a Portal Chamber that opens up portals to the Netherworld anywhere on PacWorld." Sir C said.

"So if the Maze portal is destroyed, we can still get out anywhere." Cyli said.

"Indeed." Sir C said.

"Then that's great. Why did you tag along, Sir C?" Pac said.

"So I can take the Paccerchini back before those guys incinerate it with their giant laser beams of doom." Sir C said.

"Good thing I brought our hoverboards for this occasion…" Cyli said.

"That's great, Cyli! You're always one step ahead." Pac said.

"Thanks." Cyli said.

Sir C was busy looking at Pac, and then at Cyli, and kept looking at the two for a while before turning around.

A couple of Reverse Mark I fighter jets were chasing after the Paccerchini.

"Uh, do you still remember how to make the cannons on this thing work?!" Sir C yelled, ducking from laser fire.

Pac pressed a button and instead of a laser blaster coming out, a anti-air missile launcher came out where the laser turret should've been.

"I think Dylan installed that, didn't he?" Cyli said.

"Let's just see if it works." Pac said, pressing the same button again.

The missile launcher fired a barrage of missiles towards the chasing Reverse Mark I jets and blew them all up. The missile launcher shrunk down to size and disappeared from view.

"I'm gonna have to do evasive maneuvers if there's more of them." Pac said. He looked towards the incoming airships and decided to make the Paccerchini accelerate faster if he was going to get him and his friends out alive. Pretty soon more Reverse Mark I jets appeared, some turning into a flying sawblade and the rest just firing at the Paccerchini.

"Don't let those guys get to the Maze!" One of the enemy pilots yelled.

A sawblade plane flew towards the Paccerchini and ripped through one of the legs that was holding the seat that was carrying Cyli.

"CYLI!" Pac yelled, trying to grab Cyli before she would plummet to her doom.

He failed.

He could only watch as Cyli plummeted towards the ground.

A friend that Pac truly cared about.

And he was hopeless to save her.

He didn't see if she landed safely. The Paccerchini was going too fast.

"We have to go back!" Pac said.

"Too late, those airships will rip through the only entrance to the Netherworld if we go back for Cyli!" Sir C said.

"But…" Pac said.

"Once you're inside, I'll see if she's okay." Sir C said.

"… fine." Pac said. They approached the Maze and landed where the cave entrance to the Netherworld should've been.

"Take care of yourself, Pac." Sir C said, before flying off with the Paccerchini.

Pac stared at the Paccerchini while it was taking off.

"Deliver hope for us, Pac." Sir C said, before making the Paccerchini boost away.

Pac nodded, and ran into the cave, sliding down walls and running around the cave, finding the entrance to the Netherworld, and eating a Power Berry.

"Here goes nothing…" Pac said, leaping into the portal of the Netherworld.


Limbo. Unknown time. 58 hours before giant boom-boom.

Cyli woke up, but when she looked around, all she found was nothing but darkness. She didn't know where she was. She couldn't speak, either.

'Am I… dead?' Cyli thought.

'How come… I can't speak…?' Cyli thought, again.

She walked around in the darkness, trying to see if she could find anybody inside. She didn't find anyone, but she eventually saw a wreckage of airships from both sides. Lives that were lost were wandering around, nowhere to go. Cyli ran over to the wandering souls.

'Oh, hi.' One of the enemy army soldiers said through his mind.

'Wait, we can talk in telepathy?' Cyli thought.

'Yup. We're in the trip to the afterlife.' One of the allied soldiers said through his mind.

'… the… afterlife?' Cyli thought.

'Yes, unfortunately. For everyone here. This is Limbo.' One of the allied engineers said through his own mind.

'Limbo?' Cyli thought.

'You must be one of Pac's friends. Sorry about that...' An enemy unit said through the mind.

'Why are you sorry?' Cyli thought.

'… you're dead, Cylindria.' An allied pilot said through his mind.


Me: "OH GOD CLIFFHANGER. Anyways, that twist, eh mate? The next chapter's name is Afterlife as Cylindria is stuck in Limbo and has to find a way out to return to PacWorld. You better damn hope she gets out of Limbo. Don't worry… she'll be back before you know it. Don't start hating on me! I felt like being evil today. Muahahahaha. Anyways, see you in the next chapter! -SuperNoobGalaxy
