Beastfire: Hey, here's chapter 39! Sorry it took so long, but it was fun to write...ENJOY!

As the ham sandwich rained down upon the group of Sprx, Otto, Ivy, and Frus, the green monkey...I mean green-haired human plucked it out of the air and ate it. Puck suddenly appeared, laughing.

"You shouldn't have eaten that sandwich!" he smiled.

"Why not?" Otto asked stupidly.

"It's a diarrhertic."

"CRAP!"

"Exactly!"

Otto felt a disturbance in his bowels and ran off.

"Heehee...it's activated by the word 'crap'!" cheered Puck.

"Really...?" Ivy asked, interested.

"Hey, little lady...lookin' good!" he teased, as she turned redder than Sprx and tried to cover herself up.

He laughed and disappeared. Frus got a good look at Ivy's armor.

"Okay, I don't get it. Is that supposed to provide any protection whatsoever?" he asked.

"Doesn't feel like it..." she sighed in slight annoyance.

She felt someone grab her butt and she turned to see Sprx, a rather lecherous grin on his face. Casually, Ivy smashed him over the head with her staff. It was her turn to grin.

"This thing's kinda fun...I like to hit things..."

Otto soon caught up to them, and they continued on. They soon found themselves in a taiga-like area. Needless to say, Ivy was shivering immensely. Frus wished he could help, but knew he couldn't do much. The mutant suddenly tripped over her own feet and fell in the snow. Frus found, hanging from a tree, an oversized coat. He reached up, pulled it down, helped Ivy up, and draped it around her shoulders.

Just then, Sprx fell over, having tripped over...a lizard? It wasn't any ordinary lizard, for it was a killer snow lizard. It soon became several of them. Otto suddenly had an axe and Sprx had a bow and several arrows. Otto, Sprx, and Frus began fighting these lizards, as a humanoid one stepped toward Ivy. She cast off the coat and stood ready to fight, brandishing her staff menacingly.

"Tell me," she threatened, "do you value your kneecaps?"

He laughed, expecting nothing. Ivy smashed the guy in the kneecaps, over and over. He fell over in pain and called his minions over. The other lizards left their fights and swarmed in on Ivy. She was suddenly hit by an idea. She plunged the staff into the ground, creating an energy shield around herself.

Frus, Sprx, and Otto rushed over and began fighting them. Frus and Otto hacked away at the lizards while Sprx was shooting arrows. Ivy was using her staff to fight the leader. Finally, the lizards' HP ran out, and the group got 20 exp this time. Now, a figure appeared. It was tall, shadowy, and had a mythical quality.

"You get to make a wish," it told them.

"I'd like to win this," said Frus.

"I wanna go home," said Otto.

"I miss Nova," said Sprx.

"I want some clothes!" Ivy exclaimed.

"Well...GOOD LUCK!" Puck's voice shrieked in their ears.

The figure turned into Puck and he was laughing. They'd all had just about enough of him, but Ivy was past her breaking point. She tried to attack him, but was restrained by Frus.

"Lemmie go!" she yelled, squirming to no avail.

"Sorry, Ivy, but if you kill him, he won't help us," he explained.

She stopped and sulked in disappointment. A flask suddenly came flying at her head, but Frus caught it before it could hurt her. They were soon on their way again.

Meanwhile, Ygrene, Maria, Vrust, and Saga were in the same place that the others were previously in. Before this they were...nowhere, really. No, really! They were in a void. Ygrene and Vrust were trying to get used to being human. Vrust, even as a human, looked very much like Frus, but even stronger. Ygrene was still the biggest, muscles bulging against the armor. His hair was blue and his eyes teal. His skin was more of a tannish color. The puffballs came out again, and they were all armed with various weapons.

Beastfire: And that's chapter 39. Hope you enjoyed and that you review! Emec, update soon!
