Hello, Sabrina here. Have I already done this before? Meh, whatever, I'm doing this anyway.
So, I have been pretty much relaxing all this time... and that's about it.
I would tell you what Star, Marco, Janna, Hope and Brittney were doing, but I honestly have no idea of what are they doing right now.
However, I do know what I'm doing right now: You see, I got a note from some stranger calling himself "Ed Hood", I guess that's supposed to be a parody of something. Anyway, it told me to go for Alfonzo and go to the lake near the pixie kingdom. Apparently, there's something important there and Alfonzo and I have to get it first.
It doesn't even say why we need to get it, it just ends there. Well, I think moving my butt for a moment won't hurt, and besides I need to make some progress in this game, so yeah I'm searching for Alfonzo right now. Wish me good luck!
Episode 11: Sabrina & Alfonzo's Amazingly Awesome Aquatic Brawl
(Up in the skies)
Sabrina flew in her broom and looked around for the pixie kingdom. She eventually saw a kingdom that looked rather small for a human being, and immediately decided to fly over there. However, the instant she was stopped, a pixie shot a net at her, which made her crash on the kingdom and fall unconscious.
(Pixie Kingdom)
After a while, Sabrina woke up and looked around. The first thing she noticed was that she was laying face-down on the floor, but her attention quickly changed when she noticed that she was in the pixie kingdom.
"Alfonzo, are you here?" Sabrina exclaimed.
She got no response, and when she tried to get up, she was restrained by something. She then looked at her body and saw she was restrained by hundreds of ropes, with a couple of them getting tighter near her butt.
"Oh no, I recognize this trap! It was from some boring book in the library!" Sabrina thought. "The next thing that happened was that the guy met the mini-people, tinysmallians I think, and then something else happened! But I don't think the pixies are as nice as the tinysmallians, after all they put me in the wrong position."
An then she was approached by a couple of pixies, some which stared at the girl with angry frowns. "Okay, here is the human girl." The one female pixie uttered.
"Oh no, what kind of horrible thing are these pixies going to do to me?!"
Immediately afterwards, the female pixie built a stand as the rest of the pixies got on a line and waited. Once the pixie woman finished, she went in the stand and accepted the first pixie in the line's money. With that done, the pixie went to Sabrina's butt, and the girl closed her eyes and waited for whatever horrors were coming... only for the miniature creature to start bouncing in it.
"Human trampoline, only 5 bucks a pixie!" The pixie woman shouted.
"Wait, you're using my butt as a trampoline?!" Sabrina complained.
"Yeah, the other girl broke free and escaped some days ago, so we needed a new replacement." The female pixie stated. "Anyway, you got nothing to worry about, the instant we find another big bouncy thing, you're free to go..."
"I protest! I want to see your empress!"
"She won't help you at all, she has her own trampoline."
"Then get me the emperor instead!"
Exasperated at the witch's response, the pixie woman quickly went to the palace and brought with her Alfonzo and the empress, the latter which was bouncing on the former's hair. "Oh hi, Sabrina, how are you doing?" Alfonzo greeted, oblivious to the girl's situation.
"I'm being used as a trampoline by magical tinysmallians, I'm not doing good!" Sabrina responded. "Anyway, could you help me with something? I got a note that tells me you and I have to go to the lake for something."
When he heard that, Alfonzo ordered the pixies to release Sabrina, and they sadly obeyed and released her. After that, she got up, took out the note and handed it to Alfonzo, who read it on his head as the empress stopped bouncing and looked at the letter as well.
"It doesn't say why we need to go together." Alfonzo uttered before handing the note back to the girl. "Don't you find that a bit suspicious?"
"Hmm, it does seem odd, but I'm sure it'll make sense once we get to the lake." Sabrina replied as she put the not back to her pocket. "So what do you say, wanna come with me?"
Before Alfonzo could respond, the pixie empress hissed and started attacking Sabrina's face. The girl screamed as she tried to take the pixie off, and it took Alfonzo grabbing and restraining the empress with his hands before Sabrina could catch her breath.
"Sorry, I should've warned you that the empress is pretty jealous." Alfonzo apologized.
"Yeah, no shit!"
Alfonzo then made the empress face him, and she immediately calmed down as he told her, "Look, honey, this could be something extremely important. I need to go with Sabrina for the moment, but when I get the chance to come back here, I'll return. I promise."
It took a while before the empress responded, but when she did, she blushed and nodded, "Okay, my dear, I understand."
Alfonzo and the empress nodded in unison and he released her. After that, the emperor gave Sabrina a thumbs up, left the emperor wand went ahead to the lake, upon which the empress flew directly to Sabrina's face and snarled, "You even touch his junk, and I'm going to kick your nipples and bite your ass! Am I clear?!"
"Crystal clear!"
With that said, the empress smiled and allowed the girl to leave. So with their objective set, Alfonzo and Sabrina started to look for the lake mentioned in the note, and as they did, a familiar trio watched from the shadows and decided to follow them.
(Meanwhile, with Jackie)
In the middle of an unknown location, Jackie finished drawing a circle with a six-pointed star in the middle right before her phone started ringing. She took it, saw Jeremy was calling her and answered the call with, "I'm currently busy, brathole, so this better be worth it."
"Sabrina and Alfonzo are coming to your lake." Jeremy replied. "We're following them, but we don't know what to do next."
"Huh, that is worth a little distraction from the summoning." Jackie mused. "Okay, so Alfonzo and Sabrina don't know my ulterior motives, thus they don't know I'm evil. That's good, I can convince them to join my side and help me. However, if they were to find somebody who knows my motives like Hope, they could quickly switch sides. Hmm... what to do, what to do..."
After a few more minutes of thoughts, Jackie told Jeremy, "Keep watching them and call me again when they arrive."
With that said and done, Jackie closed her phone and put it back on her pocket. "Now what was I doing? Oh right."
Jackie turned back to the circle and chanted the next:
"Demoni ex underhome, reply and obey! Summonii, Diabolous Ex Machina!"
With that said, the circle glowed an intense red as a humanoid form with horns materialized from it. A few more seconds later, the circle stopped glowing and the humanoid covered in light revealed himself to be Tom, who looked around for a bit before noticing Jackie. "Are you the one who summoned me?"
"Yes." Jackie stated. "Now, I need your help with something-"
Before she could finish her sentence, Tom slapped Jackie and shook his head, much to Jackie's surprise and annoyance.
After that, the demon gave Jackie a serious stare and stated, "Sorry human, but I'm afraid you forgot that not all demons agree to a deal right away. Some, like me, require to be amused first."
As Jackie tilted her head in confusion, Tom turned to Jackie's bitten breast and grabbed it, making the girl shriek in pain and slap his hand away. After he did that, Tom scratched his chin and thought about something as Jackie grabbed her breast and took a deep breath.
"W-What do you mean by, amusing you?" The angry summoner questioned.
Tom finished thinking shortly afterwards and stated, "Show me some injury you have, and not the bitten breast you're so obviously hiding and which I just so obviously touched."
Upon hearing that, Jackie covered both her breasts and gave the demon a furious look. "If you can make that injury amusing as well, I might consider whatever proposition you have. But until then, you're just a bitch who summoned an asshole."
Remember a peculiar injury of hers, Jackie smiled and de-attached her ripped off arm, which immediately hit the ground. Tom, however, wasn't impressed by this, so Jackie snapped her fingers and gave the demon a smug look as the disembodied arm twitched.
Then, just as Tom noticed this, the arm came to life and started to "dance" in a pretty energetic way. It did spinning, lips and many other tricks before eventually hitting the ground and flipping off the demon.
"That was amusingly hot, I'll give you that." Tom unashamedly blurted as Jackie re-attached her arm. "Okay, girl, you convinced me that this might be worth it after all. However, I need to ask why you summoned me in the first place."
"I need you to deal with...two particular players." Jackie replied. "Have you ever heard of a girl named Star Butterfly?"
The instant that name was uttered, Tom's eyes went wide open as he remembered the blood moon ball. Once the flashback ended, he returned to reality and frowned before uttering, "I'm all ears."
"Look, Star and Marco could very well become a huge thorn in my ass if I don't deal with them, but I need to gain their trust as well before I decide they're no longer worth the trouble." Jackie explained before pulling Tom closer to herself. "This is what you'll do: you wait until I give you the sign, and then, you'll force Star to turn into her ex morphus form so you can rip off her wings. As for Marco... I don't know, beat him up or something."
Tom hummed the plan and smiled. "Straightforward, and It'll let me bend some stress I have against Marco."
"You know what? You got yourself a deal, I'm sold!"
"You were sold the instant I summoned you, bitch." Jackie thought before telling the demon, "Okay, now go hide somewhere else, I'll call you when the time is ready."
Tom smiled and nodded in agreement. But before he could get out of the place, Jackie remembered something and stopped the demon right on his tracks. "Actually, before you leave, I need to stress this out: Once you break Star's wings and beat up Marco, get. The fuck. Out of there. I'll take care of the rest."
The demon rolled his eyes and simply uttered "fine" before summoning fire around his body, which made Jackie release him. He quickly left as Jackie waved her hand and blew the fire away, and once the fire was blown away, Jackie stared at the way Tom left before groaning and leaving as well.
(Back with Alfonzo and Sabrina)
Sabrina and Alfonzo reached the lake, where there were some sparks flying around for some reason. Alfonzo looked around for a bit as Sabrina took out the note and tried to find instructions on what to do next.
"Okay, here is the lake, but I don't see anything I haven't seen before." Alfonzo remarked before turning to the witch. "What do we do now?"
"Apparently we must go underwater." Sabrina answered before adding, "It doesn't really say we have to do that, It's just a guess."
"Fine, but how are we going to do that?"
The duo started to think about what to do next and then Sabrina got an idea and took out her wand. She waved it and bubbles were made around Sabrina and Alfonzo, and with that done, they jumped into the water while Jeremy and his shadows watched.
After this, Jeremy frowned and called Jackie's phone. "Jackie, they arrived at the lake and went into it."
"Understood, distract Star and Marco while I go after Sabrina and Alfonzo."
After that, Jeremy nodded and closed the phone before turning to the shadows and leaving.
Back with the duo underwater, it didn't take them long before they found what looked like a complex constructed at the deepest part of the lake. Though they were a bit wary about it at first, they quickly went to it and went inside the door.
(Inside the complex)
Upon reaching the inside with breathable air, Sabrina and Alfonzo burst their bubbles and decided to look around the interior of the complex, which amazed them to no end: it looked highly futuristic, and it had a ton paintings and symbols depicting a shadowy figure for some reason. Then, upon seeing some potted plants nearby, Sabrina summoned a camera and took a picture of them.
"What is up with this place?" Sabrina questioned as she put the photo in her pockets.
"Whatever it is, it's probably what we were looking for." Alfonzo replied. "So, does the note say anything else, or can we throw it away?"
"I don't know..." Sabrina uttered before she spotted another note nearby. "Hey look, another note!"
Sabrina and Alfonzo went to the note and the witch grabbed it. However, once she started to read it, Jackie suddenly arrived in the ceiling and smiled before sneaking past them and going into a room.
"Find the mermaid guarded by the shadows."
"What is that supposed to mean?"
Before they could think about what to do, the floor started to shake and it broke apart shortly afterwards. The duo screamed as they fell up until they hit the floor of a room covered entirely in darkness. Just as they noticed this, though, a light opened out of nowhere and shined down a spot closer to them, where Ferguson was stuck inside a cage.
"Ferguson?!" Alfonzo shrieked in horror.
That shriek got the fat teenager's attention, and he looked around before spotting the duo. "Alfonzo? Sabrina?"
"Don't worry, I'll get you out of there!"
"Wait, Alfonzo, don't move!"
The pixie emperor failed to listen, took a single step forward and he immediately fell as the room light up to reveal that outside of Sabrina and Ferguson's platforms, the entire room consisted mostly of water. Seeing this, Sabrina tried to jump to Ferguson's platform and help him get out, only to be confronted by shadow Oskar, who gave the girl a malicious grin.
Inside the body of water, Alfonzo looked around before spotting the shadows of the swimming team and Justin coming towards him. Quickly reacting, Alfonzo took out his wand, summoned a bubble around him and used it to swim back to the surface before the shadows reached him. Once there, he burst the bubble and caught his breath before looking around and seeing Oskar playing his keytar, though Sabrina covered her ears and tried to aim for the shadow.
Just before he could help her, though, Justin suddenly jumped and caught Alfonzo's feet with his teeth, and the emperor tried to release him before being dragged back underwater. Once there, Alfonzo managed to punch Justin away and then managed to use his wand to summon some electricity in the water, which affected not only him, but the shadows who flinched and screamed as the emperor swam back to the platform.
Once there, Sabrina spotted him and helped him get up just before Oskar played his keytar again, which somehow managed to hurt Sabrina and Alfonzo regardless of their defense, but this soon changed once Ferguson moved himself and his prison closer to the mermaid ex aqua and screeched loud enough to make Oskar cover his ears. With the keytar no longer being played, Sabrina took out her wand and shot a fireball at the mermaid, who screamed and jumped into the water...though this only made the pain worse.
With that said, Sabrina and Alfonzo exchanged surprise looks before jumping to Ferguson's platform and opening his prison. "Ferguson, how did you-"
"Screech loud enough to hurt him? I'm the Siren ex Sirenum scopuli." Ferguson hastily explained before jumping to the other platform and looking around. "Look, I don't have time to explain, just help me!"
"Ferguson, be careful!"
"It's okay guys! As long as we don't hit the water, we're perfectly fi-"
Then suddenly, what looked like a dinosaur whale jumped up and devoured both the platform and Ferguson. It submerged back and began swimming away as Alfonzo and Sabrina stared in shock. "What was that all about!?" Sabrina yelled.
"Whatever, go after the whale!"
Without wasting time, Alfonzo and Sabrina summoned bubbles around themselves and dived into the water. They looked around for a bit for the whale and, once they found it, they moved their bubbles straight for it as the aquatic shadows noticed them and gave chase.
Once the two saw the shadows, they moved their bubbles faster before they attacked. The swimming team simply tried to bite the bubbles to pop them, though their attempts mostly ended in failure as the witch and emperor managed to dodge them.
Oskar then tried to use his keytar to stun them...only for it to do nothing because the sound didn't reach inside the bubbles. Seeing that happen, the shadows tried to swim faster to the duo, only to be swiped away by the dino-whale's tail as they reached the whale's face. However, once they got there, they got stuck there thinking what to do next.
However, before they could reach a conclusion, the whale noticed them and ate them without hesitation. Once inside, they saw the interior of the whale was completely covered in water, not to mention there were other things inside. It didn't take them long before they noticed Ferguson swimming around.
"Ferguson!"
"Oh hey guys!" Ferguson greeted before swimming to his friends. "So, you were eaten by the whale as well?"
"Yeah, but how are you breathing underwater?" Sabrina asked.
"I was confused at first, but I just accepted the idea that as an aquatic player I could breath underwater." Ferguson responded before frowning and asking, "Anyway, did you guys think of a way to get out of here?"
Sabrina and Alfonzo exchanged worried looks and avoided answering the question until everything started to shake violently. It shook so violently, the bubbles burst and the duo held their breath before the trio were shot through the whale's blowhole with so much force they flew high in the sky and fell on the shore near the lake.
With that done, the trio exchanged stunned looks before lifting their arms and shouting in joy. Then, just as they got up and started to dance, they heard some sarcastic clapping nearby that was followed with a statement:
"Congratulations, you survived."
The witch, emperor and siren turned around and saw Jackie walking towards them. "And it looks like you rescued Ferguson too, that's good."
Once she arrived, Alfonzo and Sabrina turned to Ferguson, who shook his head with an angry frown as Jackie gave him a furious look. Once the duo turned back at the girl, they frowned and crossed their arms.
"What do you want, Jackie?" Sabrina inquired.
"I want to form an alliance with you." Jackie answered. "With your abilities, Ferguson and my power, we'll effortlessly win the game."
"How do we know we can trust you?" Alfonzo snarled. "If anything, you probably set all of this up just to get us to think you're trustworthy."
"Besides, you're keeping political prisoners!"
Sabrina took out the picture she took earlier and showed it to Jackie, who gave her a deadpan look in response. "Those are plants."
"Oh... Well, the plants could be politicians!"
"Regardless of Sabrina's theory, you have no reason to believe I have something against you nor that I want to hurt you." Jackie stated as she closed her eyes in smug pride. "Besides, if you join forces with me, not only do you get to keep Ferguson, but you'll have the aid of the closest thing to a god in the game so far. So, what do you say?"
However, the instant Jackie opened her eyes, Alfonzo, Sabrina and Ferguson had already left, and she looked around before she spotted them running away as fast as they could. Though she was highly displeased with this at first, she eventually took a deep breath and calmed down.
"Well, Jeremy's going to distract Star and Marco anyway, so I guess I should focus on that for now." Jackie thought as she scratched her chin.
Then, just before she left, Jackie was hit with an arrow that had a note attached to it. Completely ignoring the arrow, Jackie took it off and grabbed the note as her injury slowly recovered.
The girl read the note and saw it was a threat by the cryptic Ed Hood, who wrote that she either stopped what she was doing, or he would confront her himself. Knowing the figure was just messing with her, Jackie tore the note to pieces and threw them away before looking where the arrow was shot before walking away.
And from the top of the trees in the horizon, Ed Hood watched in disappointment at the girl before leaving.
