Chapter 45: the Wilting of Cassie.

"Alright, it should definitely be safe to go out now." Ivor's voice sounds in the darkness, he had taken off his mask so they could tell it was him speaking "stand back, diamond pickaxe hacking here."

Outside...

"Hah...! hah...!" Cassie's finally done running around in celebration, (yes, she wasted all her energy running around screaming "YEEEAH!" that whole time), she comes back to the remains of the torture room, hops up a couple blocks, and climbs back in.

"Where are their bodies...!?" she eagerly looks around "where is my new flint and steel!?"

She immediately spots the big block of obsidian.

"..." she stares at it, then narrows her eyes "nooo...!"

"Ah!" Ivor's voice sounds upon breaking one of the blocks and seeing the light of the outside world "here we go, everybody, just one more and we can hop out."

"Uh...! uh...!" Cassie starts trying to decide what to do "I'm all out of TNT, um, I've got more ender pearls, I've got, uh, fish, and string, and...!" she spots her diamond axe laying in the crater that used to be the room.

She bolts for it.

"Hah!" Ivor huffs as the second obsidian block breaks "there we go, you hop out first, Petra, just incase that bitch Cassie is waiting to try to stab the first one of us who goes down there."

"'K." Petra's cool with being the canary in the mineshaft.

Cassie scoops up her diamond axe.

"I can't believe they fucking stuck you up me earlier, or that Petra seriously figured out what we've been doing just from that!" she snarls, more to herself than to the axe.

"Boo-yah!" Petra jumps down, her back to Cassie.

"Boo-YOU!" Cassie leaps at Petra from behind.

Swoosh! Cassie chops her axe down, but Petra just somersaults forward and turns around smoothly, avoiding the blow and now facing Cassie.

"You called it, Ivor!" Petra announces.

Pt-pt-pt! the other three gang members drop to surround Cassie, Petra was still naked because she's lazy, but Jesse, Lukas and Ivor had reequipped their armor/robes.

"Mmm, gonna enjoy fuckin' dis bitch some more." Lukas grins, flirting his eyebrows at Cassie.

"FUCK YOU, LUKAS!" Cassie screams, equipping her ender pearls "SUPER CASSIE TRANSPORT AXE-CHOP FUN TIME!"

Cassie used: bullshit.

Cassie pulls her one pony trick and starts throwing all of her ender pearls willy-nilly around the room, no rhyme or reason to it.

"Here we go again." Jesse shakes her head and rolls her eyes.

Poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof-poof! Cassie appears around the place, hacking her axe at them wildly but rarely ever hitting them, the only benefit to this was that they couldn't seem to hit her, and in fact none of them ever touch her even a single time.

"HA-"-poof!-"HA-"-poof!-"HA, you-"-poof!-"can't-!"-poof!-"WIN!" Cassie taunts as she continues her assault, not making any real progress.

"Ow, fuck!" Jesse grunts against a light strike against her cheek, the strike was essentially a miss, as it only barely grazes her.

"HA-!" Cassie laughs her last laugh, as her body suddenly goes limp and her eyes dead.

Poof-poof-poof-poof-poof! the last five teleports finish, ending with Cassie's corpse falling uselessly at Lukas' feet.

"Ha-HA!" Jesse laughs in realization, "oh my god! the fucking idiot! the dumb bitch used too many pearls at once and killed herself from the damage taken every time she teleported! some final attack!"

"It was certainly... special." Ivor snarks.

"Oh, sweet, Cassie..." Lukas shakes his head "what would I have done with you?"

"I'm gonna pay my final respects." Petra states as she joins Lukas in standing over the corpse "Cassie, I want to thank you for everything you've done for us, it was YOUR vote that brought us to power after all, so I'll pay you back with one small favor: I know you would've wanted to go out... with a bang."

Petra flops down onto the floor and starts fucking Cassie's corpse, "urgh! YEAH, BITCH! how it feel!? you gettin' dis in the afterlife!? hope so, fuckhead! your ass is mine even in death! ugh, hell yeah!"

"Okay, so while Petra let's out her urges of necrophilia on Cassie, what do you guys think we should do now?" Jesse addresses Ivor and Lukas, "I mean, the only reason we were hanging around here was Cassie, right? so now that's she's... come to a conclusion, where should we go with things? did you guys wanna run around outside and see if we can find the others, or did you wanna pack it up and head home, or did you wanna go to town and try to get our stories heard before anyone else's, or did you wanna book it off to somewhere that no one'll ever find us, or what? do you have any preferences?"

"I say we either hunt down the diamond minecart and kill him, or we boot it to another world." Ivor asserts "maybe Lizzie too, we can't have them exposing us when we're still around."

"Ummm, Jesse?" Lukas calls attention.

"Yes?" Jesse turns to him.

Lukas takes off his mask in a 'my god' manner, he was looking downward and to the side, "I think I just found Cassie's flower pot."

"...excuse me?" Jesse doesn't understand, walking over and following his gaze.

Jesse finds that the blocks down from this section of the crater part to reveal a drop into a dark, bloody, underground room, from here she could see what she recognized as TorqueDawg's inventory items just waiting to be picked up, and, much more exciting, two armor stands, both dressed up with full white pumpkin suits, including masks.

"*Gassssssp*...!" Jesse breathes, getting it now, "Ivor! Petra! we can't leave yet!"

"Why not!?" Ivor snaps, walking over to see for himself "...oh."

"Be right back." Lukas promises, he hops down carefully to the hole, and then drops the rest of the distance, he grabs one of the masks, turns back, and uses cheap blocks (dirt, cobblestone, etc.) to stack his way back up, he then approaches Jesse gracefully, bending down on his knees before her as he holds out the prized mask.

"For you, my wonderful leader." Lukas bows his head.

"Oh, thank you so much, Lukasss!" Jesse cheerfully takes the mask and places it over her head, her tiny cut having already stopped bleeding, and her sweet, adorable voice contrasting hilariously against the dark, gritty pumpkin mask version.

"Now that we all have these... wonderful things." Ivor hisses as he lovingly strokes his mask "shall we begin chasing after Dan?"

"The BEST sexslave-fucktoy." Lukas nods.

"Yesss, of courssse." Jesse nods agreement, "are you done, Petra?" she turns to view her sister.

"MMM, soon!" Petra calls "I'm getting off HARD to my fantasy of her feeling this in the afterlife!"

"I hope she does feel it." Jesse remarks, "did the two of you want to put your masks back on in the meantime?"

"Yessssssssssss." Ivor and Lukas comply.

"Now we ALL wear these masks." Lukas remarks.

"Will they be a new symbol of our unity?" Ivor questions.

"They already are." Jesse nods agreement.

"Are we the White Pumpkin Gang then? is that our name?" Lukas inquires.

"Hmm... I do like the masks, but I'm not sure if I want to take the actual name in addition to them..." Jesse's unsure, "do you like the name, Ivor?"

"I am fond of 'Jesse's Gang'." Ivor shrugs.

"That is a lot faster." Jesse concurs, "I also feel like the masks are almost, MORE emphasized without the name, which, I do enjoy." she adds, then turns to call to Petra, "Petra! do you want to change our gang name to 'the White Pumpkin Gang', or just leave it the same as it was before?"

"Taking... the masks... is one thing...!" Petra calls back "it's disrespectful to Cassie, us wearing them and making them our own, but, naming ourselves after them? no! that's giving them too much power, and starts to become RESPECTFUL of dis bitch instead of disrespectful!"

"I agree." Jesse nods, then turns to Lukas, "I think we will leave it the same, Lukas, it was a nice thought, but I really like the masks to appear... almost random, to anyone who encounters us, and we wish to disrespect Cassie as much as humanly possible, so 'Jesse's Gang' it will stay."

"I understand, no problemo." Lukas shrugs.

And that... of all the ways... was how Cassie Rose died.

OH, SUCH TRIUMPH! The one voter got it exactly right! Jesse and her gang were totally unable to touch Cassie, but the fool caused her own death by teleporting more than her body could handle! This was truly, the most 'Cassie' way for her to go.
