What's to Come: Swan Song
"I got a thing or two to teach you about treasure hunting, but first I got a thing or two to teach you about Swan Lake." the ground began to shake.
"See here," he snapped his fingers and somehow the light dimmed and his voice amplified. "Now, I know this world ain't pretty, but I got something to say! Just take it from me, and you might come out alive today!"
"Are you really about to start sing—" he jumped onto the iron fence and walked along the rail easily as he held up his hand and used magic to cast a spotlight upon himself.
"I don't know where you got your facts, but here's where I'm going, come this way!
Here's where a beast/lies…in wait, O-oo-oo! And perhaps you
think…you/can/negate?"
As he sang I noticed a monster beginning to rise from the pond on the far side. As I stepped out of the alley, that's when my Pip Buck informed me
You have discovered
SWAN LAKE
Capper grabbed a lampost near the fence and swung around it to avoid a pike then continued walking along the fence.
"But here's where you think I'm wrong! Listen to me sing this song!
This is my Swan Song, Swan Song, Swan Song,
This is the Swan's pond, Swan's pond, Swan's pond!
You went on a-wild…goose/chase, O-oo-o! Perhaps you stum-bled on a bad...place?"
He hopped down to the sidewalk beneath the open gate. He began taking the stone steps two at a time as he sang, energized and walking toward the growing danger. When the beast rose up he tossed some orbs he'd prepared and it yelled loudly, definitely sounding like some sort of deformed bird but not exactly looking like one.
"This right here is where it gets nitty and gritty.
Now I know you're a bit confuzzled, take it with a grain of salt. I've left you lost and puzzled, but there's another way out!"
I began shooting at the monster, noticing it was some sort of mutated pony. I'd heard of super ponies before but this was concerning. From what I'd heard they were half the size of this monster. My Pip Buck labelled it as BEHEMOTH: SWAN I continued firing, knowing I had plenty of bullets, but most likely not against this thing. Then Capper did something amazing: he made one large white orb between his two paws, spinning in a circle as he continued the song and sent little pinpricks of light to my flying bullets. I saw the damage on the beast increase tenfold.
"Together you and me, O-oo-o! We'll take charge, don'tcha see?
He's a tough enemy, he's got the raiders running scared, you think I'm wrong?
This is my Swan Song, Swan Song, Swan Song,
But we are strong, yes strong, so strong!
At Swan Lake, you cannot fake, but together, we will…Take…him…dooooooooown, yeah."
He landed on all four paws, back arched, on a piece of debris in the water and was facing the Swan head on, "Now to just avoid his massive hammer thingie!"
