LV 05 - YEN 88
Ow, ow, ow, ow... It still hurts. Oh, you're probably wondering who is this... It's me, Michele! Make sure to follow me!
But anyways, if you are more worried about why I seem like I'm in pain, that's because of the recent fight we just had. I don't know why, but it's a bit too realistic... So, Buzz Buzz decided to disappear, but the others won't tell me what was it all about, instead being sympathetic about that... They do seem unusually optimistic that he'll be back, so I guess I'll hold on to that unill then.
Jacob suddenly left because it turns out that we still don't agree about him using... force, or whichever that is called. I don't know what was that all about, but Chiara seemed really angry about her. And, well, from what Mikaru told me... Makota was attacked, while she was on her way to regroup with the others. Thanksfully she's fine, but that was really worrying if you ask me.
We then tried to find clues. Ness got hurt because he wanted to go to see the mayor, and the rude policeman decided to shove him down the stairs, whichever that is. I have no idea how does it really feels, but Ness didn't seem to like that one bit.
For us, we found out that Paula might possess some magical powers. I have no idea if it's the PSI one... the same as what I suspect Ness to have, but if Paula really does have that, we might get help regarding the bomb. Which, speaking of, we are still chasing after right now...
Then Mikaru said she got a baseball hat from someone, and she just couldn't refuse it. Sounds very romantic, if you ask me.~ I wanted to wear it myself, but figured Ness should wear it.
So afterwards, we found the hideout for where the leader, Frank, was in. Which, ironically, is the arcade room. I don't get why the thugs were in that room or something, but there's no time for asking about the strangeness. So, we tried to fight against Frank. He was tough with that dagger of his. And then he ent his tank out, so we tried to evade but Mikaru lost concentration and was afraid of the tank, so I attempted to have her move aside, but that resulted in me being hurted...
I don't remember what happened afterwards, but according to Tidio, my... sister, was really upset about that. I guess she does somewhat care about me, but we will see about that. Sera then made him apologize and promise not to continue that ever again, I guess girls are really cute when they're in a bad temper... Oops, did I just say bad temper? I mean it really, when I said it!
I am still slightly worried about Jacob who wasn't present with us... But for now, I guess we will continue for the moment being. And with that, scene out!
Onett
After returning to Onett, the group decided to take a look around. "So, what is our next route now?"
Mikaru looked at Tidio, giving the question some ponderation. "Well, if I recall right... We got our first melody piece for Ness' Sound Stone. Although it was Ness who was doing most of the work, so we didn't get much experience in the end..."
Ness rubbed the back of his head, flustered about what Mikaru said. "Ehehehe, you don't have to compliment me.. I mean, if I wanna save the world, I have to follow the propechy, right?"
"Don't forget about the bomb," Chiara reminded, which caused Makota to shiver again, glaring at her. "No... No! D-Don't remind me about that again!"
"Relax Makota, we have some time before it explodes," Sera tried to reassure her, but then she frowned. "The problem is where is the bomb is... Could it be in one of the different town? What if it's hidden in a country?"
"It... shouldn't be hidden too far. I know for sure." Mikaru said, with a smile and fixing her own cyan hair. Michele looked at her a little confused. "But how do you know about that?"
"Instincts," she replied again with a chuckle, but the rest of the group just sweatdropped. "Really...? And what if that's wrong...?"
"Guys, we should calm down, at the very least. I know you're a bit nervous, but we should be calm. I don't think rushing will help." Tidio reassured the others; after some moments of consideration, Mikaru nodded, as so did the rest of the group. Surprisingly, Shino made a really slight nod, as well.
"I suppose you're right... Okay then," Mikaru then grabbed her own white ribbon, and activated the system within it, looking at the cyberspace message.
Next: Go south to Twoson Town.
"...And that's it. Hmm, it does say we should go to that town..."
"Oh!" Ness remembered something about that town. "It is really close to Onett, so with little effort I'm sure we can reach that in a matter of minutes." (Shino: Minutes? Hours?)
"Minutes? I thought it was going to be some hours..." Sera said, in slight surprise. Considering that they were in the, uh, "game", she kind of expected the trip to take some hours so the thing taking minutes kind of surprised them. Makota looked a bit more relaxed upon hearing that as well.
"Well, we shouldn't stick around by here too long," Chiara said, then continued, "We should really be getting going by now."
"Alright, then let's go!" Some moments later.
...
...
...
"...What do you mean the way is blocked?!"
"I'm sorry but unless you get permission from the Chief Strong, you cannot enter the Twoson Town. And don't even think about getting past the roadblocks. Onett is famous for its roadblocks!"
"I hope this is a joke..." Michele frowned, and sighed while looking at the person that was carrying his wheelchair, Chiara. She was a bit angry at the policeman, and in the meanwhile, Ness had gone to the mayor to try and tell him about that.
"Well, we can't fight the policeman now, can't we...?" Sera sweatdropped, staring at the other members, but Mikaru shook her head. "No, we can't, otherwise we might get in trouble."
"I agree with Mikaru. We should contemplate what to do for now." Tidio comments to himself, but suddenly turns his head as he heard Ness' footsteps coming over. It seems he has news to report about that.
"I tried to ask the mayor about this, but it seems he can't do anything about that, and thinks the problem is within the police themselves, so you have to go to the police station!" (Mikaru: I... don't get it.)
"W-What?!" Makota stuttered, a bit horrified at the news. "W-We... have to go there?!"
"But I thought the mayor could do anything!"
"I'm sorry, Makota, Michele!" The boy bowed down, frowning at the reaction of the two, but Sera went toward him, and gave his head a pat. "It's fine. Thanks you for the report. Now we should go there... Shall we deal with it?" Sera smirked, then pumped her fists together.
"Then let's go!" Michele said, and then hurriedly pushed his own wheelchair forward, Chiara chasing after him. "Wait...!"
Episode 5: The Bounded Ending!
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap...
That was what Jacob only hear as he was running ahead and forward, trying to at least locate where was Paula imprisoned. He wasn't sure why, nor have he even failed to notice about that, but somehow, he was able to go in the correct direction to the zone where she was. Right now, he was in the oak territory, which meant that he might encounter trees at any time.
Regardless, he tried to not let them touch him, and instead skipped ahead with his skills, especially as a gunner. Maybe he was marching in the unknown territory, so it was getting dangerous staying by himself, but all he cared for was that girl. He had no regard for any other peoples of the group though.
"Paula... Please be safe!" was all he said.
Eventually, whenever it was by sheer luck or not, he would arrive in another part of the town, though the atmosphere was stranger. Although there were peoples around the zone, there was this recurring theme of making things blue, so the houses were blue, the walls were blues... Most of the things that were built, were of the blue colour.
Even peoples who he'd approached or interacted talked really weirdly. Quite a bit of them said that they believe in that man called Carpainter and detailed good things about him, which kind of made things even more sketchy than it was supposed to. Someone even asked him for a small donation...
"Go away, get lost! Don't ask me about that thing!" he screamed, which caused the girl who asked him, to run away in fear. He didn't even show any remorse for that, he instead ran around in the town, dashing forward and past the buildings and the shop, unill he started to hear a faint, but girly voice which he kind of knew.
He'd tried to retract the path, trying to figure out just where she could possibly be... then his eyes gazed upon a suspicious-looking cave. He entered the cave, already quickly making it to the other end from how fast he was running.
From the other side he could see a house, and as he approached it, the voice he kept hearing got a bit louder which confirmed to him that she was in there, and he decided to bust the door open, being greeted with a... jail?
Wait, there is a jail here? Jacob thought, really confused about where this is going... Behind the jail, or at least the interior, he could make but just her gorgerous... yellow, long hair... and her beautiful attire...
She then turned around, opening her eyes as she noticed that someone had entered. "...Who?...Are you Ness... Oh, Ness, I'm glad..." But as she took a further look at Jacob's appearance, who looked... less formal than Ness' clothes, she noticed that the person she was talking to was not the person she was expecting. "Oh..."
"I heard your voice, so I came to help you..." Jacob tried to reassure a bit, but for some reason... His heart seemed to flutter a little, and he was a little fliustered. What was going on in the head of his?
"Oh...! Well... I suppose you might do, seeing as you did come this far as well..." Paula thought to herself while saying this, and then she nodded after a little. "See, you have to get the key from Carpainter, as you can't break the door open- it's really sturdy. I think he's in the other part of the village, but I have no way to know for sure..."
She was twiddling her fingers nervously, which Jacob took note of and raises an eyebrow, but then she looked up to his face with a slight nod. "Won't you please... Help me?"
Jacob looked at her, then considering it for a moment, he nodded... at least, a bit hastily. Which wasn't usual of him, but he was needed to save a girl who was in danger "Okay fine, I will help you...!" He sighed... then, all of a suddden, he began smiling a little, although... The smile of his was really awkward. Wait, why am I saying this so hastily?
"Really!? Thanks you! Not even my psychic abilities can break the sturdy door down!" she said, but then she noticed that Jacob was about to leave as she bangs on the jail cells. "Wait a minute! I was going to give you a badge!"
He looks back at her a bit questionably, then approached her again as she gives out a kind of badge to him- it had a kind of thunder symbol on it. "I hear that he can control the lightning, so I'm giving this Franklin badge. Hopefully it should help you against him."
He looked at the badge, inspecting it. Normally he didn't really want to wear anything, he thought with his current skill he could defeat the enemy, so he sighed and put it in his pockets for now. "...I'll think about it."
Franklin Badge: A kind of badge that, for some reason, seems to be strong against the lightning effect. It could be helpful against Carpainter... Under normal circumstances, increases Resist against Thunder element by 10%. DEF 2
Paula began to hold her hands against her own chest, with a slight sigh. "I know that it might help you with the battle, but still...Be careful, and don't be too overconfident." she advised and looked at Jacob... a little seriously, that caused him to nod. "Ugh, fine! I'll be going!"
He stormed off for the moment being, as Paula looked at him. For some reason, he seemed to be flustered... Paula thought maybe it's because he didn't speak much to girls, or... She wonders if it's due to his attitude... but she didn't know, nor would she anticipate the next part that would happen...
As Jacob exited the house, he saw a strange-looking man... no, kid... with glasses, and blonde hai-
"Wait a minute... You?! Why are you here?!" Jacob retorted, pointing his fingers at Porky aggressively after recognizing him. How come he was here in that land? He never thought the fool would get this far as his eyes narrowed quite a bit. "I thought you were a coward?!"
"Coward...?" Porky repeated, blinking, before he laughed a bit loudly to himself. (Jacob: "What is it with him?! Can't he just tell me?!") After he was done laughing, he looks at Jacob.
"Jacob... I know you're an ally to Ness. That's why I'm here, but not only... You can call me Master Porky, because I know you're just here to bother me..."
"Bother you? You're the one who's bothering me in the first place!" Jacob's temper was going off fast, as he went to him, shoving him aside. "Get lost! I have no obligation to..." he stopped as he looked up to some peoples that he didn't recognize.
"Oh, these are my servants. Mr. Carpainter made me into an important person for this town. Don't you think it's exciting news?" he smiles a bit, albeit cheekily and not losing his temper, but Jacob had enough of that and made his pose, transforming into a Gunner as he readied his guns. "I'm glad I joined... But I won't be fighting you right away," he smirks.
"These goons will be fighting you. I hope you do realize the odds you're stacked against." Jacob didn't appear to understand this immediately and instead pointed the guns at them. Before he could stop Porky from suddenly running though, they lunged forward at him and he had no choice but to dodge the attacks, as he went off. "Later, potato..." (Jacob: "Potato?! Why you little...!")
But right now, he couldn't chase after Porky, even after he was gone because he was surrounded by the enemy and his steps were moving backwards. Oh no, how annoying. They don't look easy to defeat, as a group... I must find a way, in order to get them moved away, or else... His eyes were widening, no, shaking, in annoyance, as he was stepping away, aiming the gun at them cautiously.
Twoson Town
"Uff...argh..."
"Argh! What training were the policeman doing?! They were so tough to knock some sense into them!" Interrupting Michele, Sera's voice seemed to roar a bit loudly, even going as far as to stomp her feet, while Tidio looked at her surprised. He didn't often see her in that state... even Ness was frightened by that.
"Wow Sera, you seem to be furious toward these peoples you decided to investigate." Mikaru chided in, though she eventually sighed. "Although, you've got a point. They were tough, after all..."
"You think they were tough?" Chiara interrupted, still somewhat annoyed from the earlier fight. "Tough, yes, but talk about the way they talked! One of them even dared called me a small fry! The nerve of that guy..." She tapped her feet, almost like she was really impatient and about to stomp her feet.
"I do think it was unkind of them..." Makota gulped a bit. "And... they were indeed tough. Especially the police chiefman. His submission hold was strong that it actually hurt a little. And he didn't seem surprised when we got into our positions, it was like he was prepared for everything..."
"I'm more concerned about Michele," Tidio admitted, looking at him in his wheelchair, who blinked blankly for some moments, before smiling. "Oh, I'm fine-" he suddenly ached, clutching his right shoulder gently as Chiara frowned. "M-Michele! Are you alright?"
"I'm fine..." he muttered out, but Makota, the one who was worried, still expressed doubt, and sighed. "You know... I think the Japanese police would've been more... well, hostile?"
"What do you mean?" Chiara was intruged, and Sera answered before Makota could say anything. "They're usually not going to attack or be hostile, but I hear that if they have to open fire, they will do it without hesitation. Overall, they're trained in their abilities and job. Carefully. They undergo a rigorous training session, just like with fire fighters."
Ness actually did not understand these terms that these kids were talking about, so he started to express some suspicions about them probably not being from around the zone he lived, but he chose to remain silent, still listening in for now.
Her whole sentence seems to send shiver down most of the peoples here. Tidio sweatdropped, Shino tilted his head while Chiara gulped a little. "Hey, let's forget about it! Jacob wouldn't be scared of that... that's unpleasant to hear about this! I... I don't know what do they exactly train!" (Makota: Hold on. Chiara is scared...?)
"Oh, speaking of Jacob... Do you think he might be searching for Paula?" Michele replied, but was greeted by disgust from his sister. "Oh come on, Michele! Only you would think such a thing. I bet he's just wasting his precious boo-hoo time himself! That's why he left us, right?!"
"You're kinda at the fault too, Chiara..." Mikaru whispered. Fortunately, Chiara did not hear it well or it wouldn't have ended well, though Makota still looked anxious. "What if Jacob... Jacob... finds himself in a situation, a-and then, he..." Oh dear, the usual Makota panicking.
"Makota, I'm sure everything will be alright," reassured Sera, putting a hand on her shoulder. "Maybe he isn't wasting his time, but we will find him, alright? It won't be too long anyways. I just know that he's somewhere near, and he has to help us." she said, looking at Makota and she stared back for a long time, before relenting on her fears and calming down.
"Well, then." Tidio tried to attract the attention of mostly everyone. "If I had to make a guess, I think we would need to go across that road, the one after the bus station or something." As they walked, he pointed to that road which led to the right. Mikaru looked at Tidio. "And why is that?"
Tidio froze for a moment at the question, trying to think up of a coherent reply, but in the end, he shrugged, being unsure about it. "Uh... I don't know, I just... had a hunch too, like Sera..."
"Really? That's all you can come up? Oh poor you, brother." Sera joked around, which caused Tidio to turn to her with a slight flustered blush. "H-Hey!" Ness chuckled a bit at that. "Well, that was like really nice..." Ness mutters to himself.
"...Fine. We'll try what this oh-so-leader says," Chiara rolled her eyes, looking at that road as Tidio felt like an arrow had hit his head, looking over at Chiara with a slight glare while Makota tried to reassure her. They decided to follow ahead to that road, which was leading into the forest.
For an odd reason, Shino suddenly stopped for a moment, looking behind. He couldn't even communicate very properly or think for himself, but he felt like it was odd. It was almost like a sort of premontion, continuing to blink while looking around the forest, not really walking fast to catch up with them, unill Mikaru had tried to call him. "Shino, where are you going? Come on now!" the call caused him to look back at the group, but didn't catch up quickly to them, just walking at a slightly faster pace.
Ness kept thinking to himself in regards to the discussion made just now, and he seems to be constantly more curious about them. Although they were like his age, they seemed to be really mysterious, and he did not know their background. Perhaps he could try to find out something about that... No, it wasn't right for him, and even if he could, he wasn't strong enough to read their minds in a fuller sense. He continued to go with them.

Short Bio: Mikaru is a mysterious girl, who claims to have come from the future, though the claim she made is kind of questionable. However, there is no denying that she can be a good tactician at times when the group is in a bind.
Fun Fact: Unknown. She has a lot of things to tell the Smashers, but she is not sure of how accurate they are, or if it will overwhelm them.
After some time, the group has arrived at the small cave, and it was really simple. So far, nothing had attacked them, which was a really good thing but it felt out of ordinary and was making certain peoples uncomfortable, like Sera, who was the first person to speak up for how uncomfortable it felt. "Nobody is attacking us..."
Ness could chime in finally at this time, and questioned, "Doesn't this seem weird? It's almost like someone may be planning to attack us... I've read about this in a book." (Michele: Ness actually reads book?)
"What book? No matter... It does seem odd, but I don't think it's due to something," Michele pointed out, looking around in the wheelchair as his eyes were shining up in excitement. "Wow! So this is what a cave looks like! I've never seen one before, actually!"
"Wait, you haven't seen a cave before?" Mikaru questioned him, and he shook his head. "Nu huh! I never ever knew that it was this nice looking at least!" he said with a really high optimism in his voice, causing the group to sweatdrop a bit. (Makota: Where... does he finds the entusiasm for this?/Tidio: I don't think this place looks good, but I'm glad to see he's trying to raise the morale up for us, at least.)
Halfway through the path though, Mikaru stopped for a moment, and so did Tidio and Chiara, the most latter causing Michele to almost fall. "What was that for?!" Michele said, surprised about that gesture. He glanced around now, wondering what could it be, before he heard it too.
Tidio looked at the ground for a moment, then turned to others, worried. "I thought I heard a slight shaking, or at the very least a vibration..." He murmurs, almost like he felt something suspicious.
"V-Vibrations? That can't be..." Makota bit her lips nervously, Shino looking around too without fear. Sera started to tense up due to the sudden situation, looking around too and shaking a little, like a leaf. "You don't... don't think... there are ghosts?!" Makota screamed, and Ness gulped at that sound of it, being somewhat afraid of it somehow. It was going to be an inconvenience at such a time like this.
"What ghosts?" Michele questioned her, then scoffed a little afterwards with a smile. "I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as that. They don't look real, and besides, it's still daytime last we entered... How can there be ghosts in the daytime?"
Shino suddenly looked ahead, to forward a bit carefully, as if he thought he sensed something, then beginning to move a little forward, but was quickly stopped by Makota. "Shino! S-Stay here, at least!" she urged, not wanting to imagine what danger he would fall into, if they should lose hold of him. "What's going on into you? Why are you doing such things? Is there something—!"
Suddenly, they heard a kind of loud crash, but it wasn't the usual sound of crashing that one would hear, and then the air felt like it was reduced somewhat, the group looking behind as Chiara went back to try to inspect it, before gasping in horror at what she saw. "No way! The initial entrance has fallen!?"
"Fallen?" Tidio blinked before realizing the implications, approaching as well to inspect the rocks, that were now suddenly present. "Are you saying it's closed off?" he confirmed, now sporting an uneasy look as well.
"No way!" Mikaru shouted, as well, getting really antsy about the fact. "That shouldn't usually happen, at all! They are very durable, so they shouldn't break at all! What the heck is going on?!"
"N-Normally t-t-this shouldn't... be happening..." Makota started to shake like a leaf, Sera coming over to try to give her a hug as she kept shaking her head, feeling helpless, though she has a kind of suspicion about this whole situation. "Something is wrong. As Mikaru said, they usually don't let the entrance close by itself, naturally. It didn't feel natural," she pointed out.
"Are you saying it was most likely done by someone purposefully?!" It didn't ease Chiara's worries too well, but before she can retort the group had heard a familiar-like voice, which was also laughing a bit loudly. "Well done, girls. Too bad your minds are this small enough to not notice it immediately," it was also followed by some loud claps. (Shino: Small...?/Sera: Are you implying we're weak?! Why you...!)
"Hey...!" Tidio readied his Joycon when he saw the familiar figure appear, in front of them. Michele's eyes were shining for a moment, but then stopped when he realized who is that the group was dealing with, and Chiara's patience was running dry, letting go of the wheelchair to point her finger...
...at Wolf! Anime style!
"Not you again! I thought it was over when we fought you back then in the weird room! What did you do to the entrance?! Explain yourself, dog!" While she said her line, she was also stomping her feet angrily, disliking the mere presence of him quite immediately. But he just cackled, liking the struggle of the girl as he readily pointed one of the guns at her.
"I just fired something at the rocks. Something wrong? And to be honest, I am not a dog..." Wolf was really bothered by the girl calling him a dog, despite his species being different.
"Why are we focusing on that part? There is a lot of things wrong with you!" Sera butted in the conversation, then pointed at Shino... "Not only that, but you even tried to harm Shino! There is no way I am letting you retrieve him—"
"Sister! Watch out!"
Bang!
A light, but still strong, green bullet ran out through the cave. Thanks to Tidio's warning, she barely dodged the attack to the right, looking at the laser a bit scared now. It grazed through Michele, but even though it did not hit him, it didn't help Chiara much as she was horrified. "Michele!" He perked his head up, confused, then looked behind, kind of realizing what was going on as he looked back at Wolf. "What...?"
"Well? Now is the good time, if you want to be let go... You just need to give this boy to me." He cackled, his voice rising once again.
"That's what the villains say!" Mikaru did not believe him in the slightest. "You're going to ask us to give over Shino to you, and then once you're done, you'll just kill us, right?" Shino tilted his head confusedly.
"Kill...?!" Knowing the implications of that word as well, Makota shivered, her eyes still a bit wide from that and shaking her head. "No... No way!" Shino repeated that too, but more so in confusion. Not knowing that word.
"This... is a game, right?" Michele asks a little confused. "So what does..."
"Are you kidding me, Michele?!" Sera snapped at him, then leaned her arm. "He is, well, serious! He will do what he said, and then he will shoot our heads!"
"But didn't Tidio say we were transported? So, in theory, if we were to, uh, be 'killed' here, we would be back at reality, right? Is it even possible to have such a thing happen?" Michele still was ignorant about that, but most importantly, he was actually trying to use Tidio's comment as a counterargument to what Sera said, which made Tidio gasp in surprise. "Wait, what?" Tidio just muttered.
'Interesting... conflicting answers, I will have to investigate this when we get back and have more information', Mikaru thought to herself in regards to that.
"How can you be this..." Before Sera can finish, Wolf decided to shoot again at her, forcing her to try to dodge as she groaned loudly. "Ah..." she groaned, grabbing her own blue joycon and holding it up. "Transform!" Suddenly, her clothes shifted to her blue attire, also now donning the wizard hat on her head, although it was still relatively small in comparision to her head. She focused her plastic wand forward. "Blizzard!"
"A Blizzard, huh?" Wolf looked at the small icicle that was forming in front of him. All he had to do was point the gun at it, shooting the laser again. Although the laser dissipated, the blast was enough to shatter the small icicle. "What?!"
"I was honestly expecting a huge icestorm at that mention, but I guess it is pretty disappointing." Sera gritted her teeth at Wolf's words, as the other members were annoyed and on the verge of joining in. Tidio pointed at Wolf. "I'm not going to let you have your way!"
Ness watched all of this scene, expressing diverse emotions to that. In particular, he had taken an intruge to Sera and Tidio, due to how Sera's appearance suddenly changed and how she suddenly gained her ability. Although back then, he could only get a small sneak peek as he was busy with the other policemen, then with the Frank person, now he could see their real potential, against Wolf, and this time, he was trying to study a bit more about them. Especially with what they were doing, looking as Tidio transformed into a Swordsman, he started to feel like their stories made more sense now, whereas previously, he wasn't the one buying into the story too much.
Tidio, like the usual leader, charged forward, and despite how fast he charged forward, Wolf was still dodging the barrage of strikes. Just when Tidio thought he managed to hit him however, he disappeared in front of him, leaving him confused before he was suddenly kicked from behind, knocking him some distance. "Tidio!" Sera calls out, afraid.
"It is better if I join in... besides, I've had it with that creature too!" Chiara then held out her white Joycon and shouted the words, changing her dress to a white-coated fashion, with her usual outfit, and also her headband with a green, four leaf clover on it.
Mikaru looked at them, and sighed a bit heavily, then turned to Ness. "Sorry... Just stay back for now." She then looked at them, before transforming with her Joycon and changing her into the Assassin, the one that we all know and love.
Michele looked around in surprise and sweatdropping at this before nodding to himself. "If... If everyone's gonna be like that, I wanna join too!" he shouted, almost sounding nervous, but also excited, evident by him grabbing from the same wheelchair seat the black Joycon and holding the fist forward, causing the wheelchair to dissipate for convenience as he transformed into the Fighter. Pretty soon enough, even Makota, changing into the Archer, and Shino, who changed into Thief, were joining in on the onslaught against Wolf. One versus eight, the eighth member being Ness. If Jacob was here it'd be nine. But right now, being outnumbered now was interesting. Ness clenched his fists, he wanted to help out with this ordeal, but for now, he listened to what Mikaru said.
Versus Wolf: Part 2
GET READY
The first thing Chiara did, was scan on Wolf using Libra. "Atta boy!" She screamed as the staff lit up, reading over the canine's information.

Information: Wolf O'Donnell is a notorious criminal, and everyone knows him due to his crimes. He has once been hired by Andross, to destory what is known as the legendary Star Fox. Years later, he gained the respect as the most popular criminal, leading him to also own the biggest bounty, of $3,000,000. At this moment, he wants Shino for himself. Why is that so? (Michele: That's what I wanna know! I don't get it!)
She did not take too much notice at that time when he fought with the Frank person. However, when she took a closer look, although she noticed that the information has somewhat updated, she noticed mostly that there is now the Talent sub stat, after the main stat. "What is that...?"
"What do you mean, Chiara?" Mikaru looked at her confusedly.
"Uh... After the stats, there are also the strange words and numbers, but this time it's Talent... What is a talent? Does it increase their stats?"
"Talent? Oh... Well... I'll explain later!" She replied back, but she admitted that she was intruged. But she had to focus on her mission at hand, so for now she looked at him.
She made the first attack, throwing her plastic stars at Wolf, grazing him and dealing not too bad damage. Michele already prepared to attack him front up and directly, but Wolf retaliated with a sharp kick, pushing him a bit away. Chiara grabbed him, preventing him from being knocked any further.
Tidio suddenly leaped up from behind while Wolf was countering Shino's attacks, this time managing to make him flinch for a moment. Now was the chance. He immediately followed up with a Double Slash, leaning upwards as though to throw him into the air. At that moment, Sera launched the spell, shooting out a small fireball at him and making his fur even more charred than it was.
Wolf furrowed his eyebrows, frustrated about his results. Once again, he executed his Wolf Flash; improving his mobility, thus being able to quickly dodge all the other attacks easily expect for fast attacks, thus he still had to be careful of Shino and Mikaru's attacks
At this moment, Mikaru decided to unleash his skill, starting to repeatedly attack him with the knives. While they didn't hit him fully, some of them did graze, and one easily hit his tail, causing it to swirl around as he howled in pain... He looked at Mikaru as she executed her skill, throwing several knifes once again at him. Unfortunately for her, it worked for him, as he grabbed a device; in that moment, a purple shield surrounded around him. Instead of being nullified, the knifes bounced toward the main party; Mikaru and Shino did dodge all of them, but the other weren't so lucky. Even Ness barely managed to dodge the reflected knife, but others were a little hurt.
"Ow!" Michele winced; he took both of the knife to protect his sister, who was gasping in horror. "Michele!" Despite disliking him, she could not help but be concerned of her well being.
Of course, Sera, Tidio and the others who were hurt were kneeling down. Makota was frail, so she could not look at Wolf anymore, she was looking down and she didn't even manage to use her skill. Michele was gasping a bit from the knife, but he disarmed both of them, getting up slowly, being low on health, while Wolf continued to laugh; making fun of them.
"So what about it? Despite a single knife, just them being reflected has significantly damaged you guys. Are you going to give him up, or not? If you give him up, I can spare your lives..."
"W-We're not giving him up!" Tidio impulsively replied, earning a kick from Wolf; knocking him down and making him lose his transformation, returning to his normal state while his sister screamed in horror. He was still conscious, but he felt weak... he didn't know that such a kick would be this strong...
But before Wolf could quickly shoot him to silence him, he was hit from behind by something sparking. Although it did make him flinch once again, he growled afterwards and looked to the source; Ness who was now frustrated, and having just cast his PK-Fire skill on him. "...What was that, ostinate kid?"
"Who are you to call someone ostinate? My name is Ness! I can't stand still while my friends in front of me are in danger!" (Michele: "Friends? Oh, we really are friends, then!" / Mikaru: "I thought he didn't trust us too well...")
"If you want to attack them any further, you have to get past me! I..." He clenched his teeth in anger, his eyes flaring a bit up. "I won't forgive you! Your ruthless actions! Your intentions! I will never forgive you!" With a growl, he grabbed his baseball bat, charging toward Wolf. The wolf just growled, and prepared a simple attack, but Ness was more nimble this time now, filled with determination. Despite the shoots from the wolf, Ness had more speed than usual, and he jumped over the laser attacks, his baseball whacking the head and making him dizzy. "Ow, ow, ow!"
"Now!" Sera shouted, mustering up just barely enough energy to execute a Thunder attack and make him get a small zap from it, while Shino attempted to pickpocket him with Steal.
Pick pocket attempt . . .
No Yen to steal, however opponent dropped an item from impact! Successfully stole Brown Guns!
Brown Guns: Basic brown gun. Nothing really special to it, though weaker than the wooden gun. Jacob ATK +3
"...You were carrying a brown gun the entire time? Why would you carry it around?" Sera said, in a confused tone on why the enemy would have such a gun. The very though of it even made Michele laugh a bit loudly, pointing at the canine that was fuming.
"Shut up! I didn't have anything better, okay?! This is just tem—argh!" Mikaru had interrupted him with a kick on the head, knocking him back to a wall and making him groan a bit loudly. "Psh! Be a bit more careful when attacking people." She snickered, but not prepared for the next moment, as he now fumed a bit more, as though going into a rage mode, and shooting the bullets repeatedly. At this point Tidio crouched down to try to avoid the shoots, though the rest weren't as lucky and the movement was made more chaotic as a result of it.
"Argh!" Sera got hit by a laser, enough to revert her to her normal form and collapsing to the ground, looking up a bit weakly at her. Even the rest of the group took damage and they slowly began to revert to normal form, expect for Michele and Chiara, though mainly Michele was trying to protect his sister, despite his sister's apathy.
But his survival would be naught in changing the fate as the wolf suddenly jumped up, before starting to do a drop kick, preparing to hit poor Sera. And it looked like her end was approaching fast. "Sera!" Michele moved to try to block it on behalf of her, though Tidio didn't seem too optimistic.
"Sister! No!" Tidio struggled to get up as well, groaning a bit. It seemed like everything was over with Wolf's speed being quick...
...
...
...
Until he was knocked back suddenly by a laser. The group looked surprised at such a feat. Ness also looked genuinely surprised. That looked like a PSI attack to him, in fact it was one of the advanced attack. "Who did this...?" Ness mutters.
The PSI boy looked back and to his surprise, he saw that the rocks were already destroyed by that ability. Upon further inspection, it could be inferred that there were two boys standing on the side where the rocks were; a blonde hair with glasses, wo looked like a nerd; and another taller guy with a bald hair expect for an ahogeo, and mostly white clothes that seemed like martial arts costume. None of the group seem to recognize them, not even Ness, though they were glad about their arrivals.
The blonde guy, Jeff, fixed his own glasses which was shimmering for a moment there. "Take that!" And so he put up a large artililery, firing out what appears to be a rocket, homing in on the canine who glared in horror at it. "Nooooo..."
BOOM!
Smoke appeared thanks to the explosion, the room cumbling a little but nothing too severe, however the explosion was enough for everyone to slightly feel it at least. Makota shivered at the explosion, wondering about the damage... which was actually making her feel much more uneasy, and on the verge of passing out. "T-T... That..."
"Don't think it's over yet!"
The same voice came from the wolf, albeit the voice was slightly pained. After the smoke subsided however, all that remained were the crumbs from the explosion. But that left the group wondering on how did they survive the explosion, or even if he might be alive at this point. "Wow... that was surely a big explosion..." He murmured, slowly, before turning to the two newcomers, with a smile. "Thanks for saving us..."
"Don't mention it. I'm Poo." The martial-artist guy replied, with a smile and also a sweatdrop. "This nerd here is Jeff..." Jeff glared at him for that comment, garnering some chuckles from some members.
"Ahem!" Jeff said, sporting a slight blush on his face. "I wasn't originally supposed to come here, but, you know... For some reason that Poo refuses to mention, he wanted me to come along with him. Apparently he has something to say to Ness..." Upon this, the group looked inquisitively at him, making him sweatdrop a bit. "W-what? I don't really know anything else..." He said, a little meek from all this sudden attention.
Poo now sported a serious face, and walked toward Ness, in a calmed manner, as though wanting to ask him something. "It's about time I finally found you. My master spoke of two prophecies, and both of them are related to you. Though, I think the second one is more important to know than the first... not that I care about it."
"What... would it be? Mind telling us?"
"Firstly, I have been told that you would be one of the keys in stopping Lord Giygas..." Ness' expression hardened at that, almost in surprise and yet frustration. But he was also glad that there would be an ally. "And restoring peace to the world. Simple enough, right?" Ness nodded.
"Here's where the second prophecy gets complicated, though..." Poo mutters, leaving out a dragged sigh. Sera looked worried about that. "W-what is it? Please just say it already!" Poo looked at Sera, and sighed again.
"The master didn't seem to tell me much detail, he actually did look afraid somewhat, which was out of character from him... At least that I think. Apparently, it tells of an even greater crisis, and Ness will have to leave for an adventure..."
"By greater crisis you mean these 'Subspace Bomb' that Mikaru talked about before, right?" Chiara said, starting to get up after having rested somewhat from the battle. Poo looked at him confused. "They're the bomb that supposedly would destroy worlds..." Poo and Jeff's face turned to surprise at that. "What?!"
"That sounds like Giygas' doing alright," Ness said with a mutter, though he looked confused when Poo mentioned that prophecy. "Wait, what does it have to do with me? I have to leave? W-what does it mean?" Ness was now suspicious of the group, while Mikaru let out a sigh, as though she was going to tell something she wished she didn't need to.
"Actually Ness... These bombs, it's not from Giygas at all."
"Wait what?! But if so, then what is it?!" Ness lamented, causing once again a sigh from the cyan haired girl.
"These bombs, if I'm not wrong, they were probably made by the mastermind behind the incident I mentioned earlier..." Suspense rose as the others listened to him, though the main group, save Ness, Poo and Jeff, knew what she was trying to say.
"His name, if I'm spelling it right, it's Tabuu. The leader of the Subspace Army." Even though it wasn't the first time they heard it, the group still did feel uneasy by the name just being uttered. Makota once again felt ill, Tidio and Sera had a wary look, Chiara and Michele looked worried, and Shino, well, he was just tilting his head.
Though the more bigger surprise came from Ness himself, as he repeated the name, tilting his head. "Tabuu? I've never heard of him at all, is he a bad person? Is he worse than Giygas?" He asked these questions, as Mikaru struggled to answer, though she looked surprised herself.
"I... uh... well... Wait... You're not meaning to say you've never literally heard of him at all?!" She asked much to the surprise of others.
"Nope, first time hearing it." Poo and Jeff nodded at Ness' statement, while the other looked confused. "Uh... were they supposed to already know right away, Mikaru?" Michele asked, making Mikaru flustered as she shook her head. "No... No... It's nothing!" Strange... I definitely was sure that they would at least remember the events in that time, but maybe... it's not how it works?
"Anyways, we need to find Paula first. Where do you think is she?" Poo asked, as Michele perked up for a moment. "Paula? Oh, that pretty girl! I think I heard someone saying that she was in the Twoson town. We were going there actually... we were thinking that Jacob might be there as well, he didn't really like relying on us so he scampered off..."
"It's more like, he can't stand my presence. The end!" Chiara crossed her arms with a huff, making the other sweatdrop. Though by how much time was passing, Ness was starting to get too suspicious of them and sighed a bit loudly. "Hey, can I ask you a question?"
"Yes, Ness?"
Blue Blue
Jacob was struggling a lot to navigate across this place, mainly because of the inhabitators around here that kept bothering him as he went by. Henoticed the rather odd behavior of these people, they always looked... so depressed, as though they have never ever had a happy moment in their life, and honestly, it kind of scared Jacob somewhat.
Now, Jacob has finally reached the second floor of the building, and in front of him, was the podium, with a guy, who admittedly not only did he look short, he looked pretty old, judging by a part of his head being bald. Jacob pointed the gun at him (after having transformed, of course). "Hey!" he shouted, startling the guy and making him turn around, laughing sheepishly.
"Haha, you found me..." He muttered, guilt as charged. "Well... I was hoping to find another member to join our team..." Jacob raised an eyebrow over that, even though he knew he wasn't going to accept the offer.
"I need your assistance, and help me change the world into blue, and into a happy and peaceful society." He explained, a smile growing on his face. "Will you be my right hand assistant?" That got Jacob thinking for a moment.
Of course, while he wasn't exactly a... patient person so to say, with his temper, Jacob really did want to help make other people's lives proud. In fact, that line he just said suddenly made him remember of his mother, who spoke dearly about his father... Jacob shook his head, why was he suddenly thinking about that? He didn't want to remember the moment. After some thought, he declined the offer, stating he wasn't interested in it. The guy sighed, but didn't let his smile fade. "You fool, you fell for my trap!"
And so suddenly, the room flashed a bit, a lot of thunders shooting out toward him, and the Carpenter person expected him to be knocked outside of the building... But in fact, nothing ever happened, even after the thunder attacked him. In fact, the thunders were moving away from him. "How?"
Jacob was a bit confused, before he looked at his own badge. The Franklin badge. "Oh, so that's what it was... Nice gift, Paula!" Jacob smiled a bit, for once. He was again, for once, thankful about someone, since it might've saved his back just in time. Jacob then assumed a more serious position, quickly shooting him and pushing him away a bit.
He tried to follow it up with another combo, but the guy barely dodged it, before attempting to do the crashing boom lightning attack, thunders coming at him. Even though he did have the Franklin badge to reflect the thunders, it still didn't mean that they were fully blocked, and he took damage as a result of that, alongside being slightly Numbed. Oh no!
Numb: The slight tingling may impact your performance in your battle. It also slightly increase Thunder damage taken and Thunder effects.
"Ugh!" He groaned a bit loudly, before expending his SP to unleash his Trigger Happy skill, repeatedly shooting the pistol toward him for good damage. He could hear the guy crying a lot louder from that attack, but he didn't care much right now, and somehow, it wasn't also letting the numbness get to him badly. He attempted to follow with the Accurate Shot, but the numbness forced him to briefly stop giving the carpenter time to use the thunder again, once more dealing quite a bit of damage to the Gunner.
Jacob huffed a bit, kneeling down somewhat due to the damage he took, and he felt like he would pass out any time as he gasped a bit loudly. He thought it was his end...
...
...
Though, the end would never come, for as sudden as it was, a kind of laser would fire out from somewhere, hitting the carpenter. It was so strong that it knocked him out immediately, not even leaving him dazed but straight up unconscious. Jacob looked a little surprised, before looking to the source...
"Jacob!" Sera was a little happy, and yet, worried, for she saw how much damage Jacob had taken. Chiara rushed to his side, healing him up with her Cure skill. The rest of the group came out. "Everyone!"
"Jacob, are you alright?" Michele said, smiling a little while watching his, err, sister, try to help up the injured gunner. After some moment of hesitancy, Jacob just nodded. "Yeah... I think I'm fine... but the hit was kind of rough there..." He murmurs, glancing at Ness, and the two people who were new to him. But that didn't last long as Sera approached him with annoyance in her face.
"Jacob! This is what happens when you try to go alone! Do you not realize how much danger you would be in if not for us?!"
"Well, it's not my fault that you guys decided to try to slack off somewhat before!"
"We weren't slacking off..." Tidio sighed a bit, making Jacob look at him. "I should've tried to understand you better. I don't know what happened, but I want to at least make it up to you. As the leader, I mean..."
"Leader? Hah, as if..." Jacob laughed. Although it was supposed to be a snarky remark, the other did smile at him, relieved to know he's fine. "Anyways... uh... it's on me... I don't know what got on me. I don't really know how to put it, but I guess... I was feeling a bit antsy. About the whole situation, I mean. It's just been a... uh... a lot of stuff for me..." After some consideration, Tidio nodded, putting a hand toward him.
"...Apology accepted. Once we get back, we'll try to get a bit of rest here and there. I should've probably stopped Shino earlier though, so..."
"It's not really your fault, Brother. Some things just happen." Sera shrugged, as everyone relaxed a bit. Poo and Jeff were looking at them and smiling, so far liking their chemistry, though Ness looked a little... Different. Not in appearance, but it was as though he had made up his mind.
"Wait, what about the bomb?" Jacob asked, which caused everyone to get on edge, looking around. Though eventually, Mikaru, with her keen eyes, thought up of where the bomb could be, and she could contribute now. "Hey, everyone, look! I think the statue is a little off!"
"Off?" Tidio looked at the golden statue, which was a little... moved, as though there was an intention to hide something in there.
"Let me try." Poo went up to the statue, and lifted it up easily, moving it aside... There was indeed a hole in there, which left everyone confused. But when Mikaru looked at the hole and the contents inside it, she gasped, and pulled the item out, in alarm.
00:52:23
"Is that... the bomb?" Ness asked, meekly, to which Mikaru nodded, putting it down.
"Uh, can we destroy it-"
"NO!" Everyone screamed at Jacob's suggestion, especially Chiara. "Ugh, this is why you're so behind on times! (Jacob: Behind on time?) I thought I told you that this is the Subspace bomb. If we try to destroy it, then it might lead to an explosion, and it will be game over for us!"
"But how can we get it off, then?" Sera looked worried about the safest way, looking around. Nobody seemed to be the good candidate for that, maybe Mikaru, but she wasn't sure how reliable the 'future' girl was... and her eyes then looked on Jeff, who noticed the look after some seconds. "W-what?"
"Jeff, you know how to do machinery things, right? Can't you uh... try to disable the bomb?"
"You mean defuse it?" Sera was confused about the term, but she nodded anyways. "Uh... I mean... I don't like the sound of it... I don't want to make the bomb go off... What if I mess up?" The thought about such a thing, made him really nervous, sweating in panic. "I don't really know if I want to do this..."
Makota knew the feeling of the blonde boy. She tried to put a hand on the shoulder, as everyone looked at Jeff. "I... I think you will be fine. I don't know why, but I just know that you'll be fine. So... uh... could you try to give it a try, for once? I don't... know if I can help..."
"Yes, you said that you were a genius at machinery, Jeff." Ness chimed in. "Why can't you fix it yourself? Please, just this once?" ...This was one of these small moments where Ness actually said the magic word please, and it even got Jeff thinking for a moment. Everyone in general just had a look of expectation, wishing he'd try.
After a minute, he sighed, with a nod. "O...Okay... but just on one condition... Could you please leave me alone? This is important, right?" Everyone looked at each other, and nodded, trusting the blonde guy. Oh, and they didn't forget about the carpenter guy, as Chiara dragged him away to leave Jeff alone in peace while he began work on the bomb. It was going to be the most anxious moment for the next minutes...
...
...
...
"How long is he going to take?" It had been a little more than thirty minutes, and Chiara was getting worried. Michele frowned at her.
"I think you should have more patience..." Chiara glared at him. "Err, I mean, patience isn't a thing for Jacob!" And now Jacob was glaring at him, then at Chiara. "Did you make him say that?"
"No, I didn't. When would I do such a thing? He's free to say what he likes..."
"Oh? I thought he bothered you. What happened to shushing him?" That caused Chiara's eyebrow to twitch a bit, grunting annoyed at him. The group looked a bit worried, with Makota and Michele trying to calm them down. After a moment, they looked away with a huff.
Jacob, not wanting to deal with the girl, decided to try to focus on Ness. "And you, what did you decide so far?" He was curious. "Are you going to join us or not?"
"I have given it some consideration..." Ness said, crossing his arms with an indifferent face, and then smiled. "After some time, since it seems like this Tabuu guy is really dangerous, even more so than this Giygas thing..."
"...I think I am going to join you in your adventures." That was met with some cheers from the main group, alongside some sound, almost as if one of happiness and of excitement... it was like a dream come true!

"VS mode?" Tidio repeated, as he looked at the notices that suddenly popped up in front of him.
"Oh, it's the mode everyone play, it's like where you fight with a CPU or another player..." Jacob, having played quite a bit of Smash games, mentioned this useful advice. "Perhaps we should train from time to time for some EXP gaining. We gotta be ready for when we fight against their stronger troops..."
"Forget about that!" Sera shouted, looking at her (non existent) clock wearily. "What is Jeff doing..."
Suddenly, the door was opened, and out came Jeff, with the same bomb, obviously making everyone back out. However, they then noticed that the bomb had halted, at exactly 2 minutes and 53 seconds. Jeff smiled a bit. "I did it!"
Once again, group cheers ensued, some of the girls even coming to hug Jeff for having saved the day (and possibly, the world, today), the only one not cheering was Shino who once again tilted his head. What was important was that all was well that ends, for a crisis has been averted...
Twoson Town
After having rescued Paula with the key that they got from the carpenter, it was time for the main group to depart. Initially, they wondered how would they do it, and they even questioned Mikaru repeatedly, which she didn't know how to, until her Joycon suddenly glowed a bit after saving Paula, and then suddenly ointing at an empty land, the joycon shaking with intense power and causing the portal to pop up.
"Here," the blonde girl, Paula, said while handing out the book to Ness. The title read, 'PSI POWER AND THE STUDY ON THEM'. "I don't know why, but it was just lying there on the corner of the cell I was in. I think this might be of help to you. Though, thanks you once again everyone for helping us... Especially you, Jacob." She winked at him, making him blush. Sera nudged him too. (Sera: Wow, can't believe you're a ladies man, Jacob...)
"Stop it... it was nothing. If not for them, I wouldn't have completed my mission..." Jacob muttered, and they shared a laugh. Though it was sad, it was necessary to leave behind this world for a goodbye, and Mikaru wanted the goodbye to be memorable, so she left Ness say goodbye to his two new friends.
"It was nice meeting you, even if just for a brief time. I hope to see you in the future." With a smile, Ness shook Paula's hand, and he did the same for Jeff and Poo... trying to not have to wipe a tear or even cry. The fact that he was going on a longer adventure, it almost made him a little homesick admittedly, but he had to muster up a bit of courage. He felt like he could trust the heroes more, after learning about their... ah, half-truth.
"From now on, let us three try to take care of Giygas. Have a safe travel." Poo said , and Ness nodded in response to that. Afterwards, the group was starting to leave by going through the portal one by one, although Ness briefly stopped when he was called by Paula, and he turned toward her wanting to know what was it...
Suddenly, Ness received a slight smooch on the cheek, causing him to blush a bit. "H-Hey!" He muttered, but she chuckled. "It's just a parting gift. Safe travels." She waved to him, and Ness... With a happy sigh, he let himself shed a tear, wiping it off quickly before nodding. "Okay!"
And thus he went in, returning back to the mansion as the portal closed by itself. After the portal closed hwoever, Paula finally did start to somewhat cry a bit, already starting to miss Ness' presence, and she was holding back her tears, as Jeff and Poo tried to console her, reassuring that she would be fine.
"I'll try my best for you, Ness."

Short Bio: Being Michele's sister, Chiara is also mysterious, in the sense that she does know who really is Michele, but she won't tell the others who he is. Why is she not telling anyone, who is she really? And yet, she dislikes Michele for some reason... what could it be, is it just herpretending or is there ulterior reason?
Funfact!: Chiara actually dislikes meat, so she doesn't really want to eat anything that contains meat. She just prefers to eat vegetables. Oh, and she doesn't really like having friends right now, so her way of talking may be annoying to some people.

"Now what?" Ness mentioned, arriving into the Mansion and looked around, wondering what to do.
"Well, obviously, it's time to rest up, and let everyone think over the past few days!" Tidio called out, but that was met with a boring glare from Ness. "H-hey, it's not like we have anything better to do, okay?!"
"Mmh, but look at the little cutie..." Sera said, holding up a Pichu... wait, a Pichu?! "Isn't he just so cute?" Pichu could only make chirping noises, blushing in embarrassment.
"Wait, what is it doing here?" Popo chimed in suddenly, startling the main group as Nana looked around a bit confused as well.
"Err... Uh... T-That doesn't matter now! What would matter right now is... Welcome to Smash! Uh... So... Want to have a practice session with me?" Michele mentioned. "Anyone want to try the VS mode?"
"VS mode? I don't know what that is, but that sounds interesting. Let's go!" And so, Popo and Nana (well, Nana is unwilling) marched onward with Michele, leaving behind the group.
"I think I'll just go outside. And you need some outside time too, Shino!" Mikaru said, not wanting Shino to try anything funny this time, as she dragged him outside.
"Well, at least we'll have a nice break, right?" The silence seems to answer the question negatively though...
Smash Line: Session Begin!
Michele: And that's a wrap! Our first world done!
Chiara: Albeit with some clichèd moments...
Michele: Oh, don't be like this! You gotta admit it was fun, right?
Makota: I... Uh... Is that really fun, though...?
Jacob: I will admit, it felt pretty good trying to beat up the carpenter alone. Though, once again, if not for...
Tidio: Yes, yes, we got it already, Jacob. No need to apologize...
Sera: Anyways, we hope to see you later in the next episode. Sorry about the delay, and I hope you had fun reading!
Shino: Reading?
