As the jigglies were en route to Enrika, to play with those lovely angels and power level Erubetie until she reached her peak once again, the sunny blue sky suddenly darkened out, vicious storms brewing out of nowhere, visibility dropped to almost zero, with the only sources of light being the flashes of massive lighting bolts hitting the enraged sea. The jiggly pirates readied themselves for the worse, as each man and monster of the sea remembered the horror stories that began with sudden storms on a sunny day.
ROAR KRAKOOM
"All your prayers for a meeting with the legends of the sea are being answered right now, Roman! I hope you're happy with yourself!" Cervantes screamed with a tinge of horror but above all enthusiasm, as the rumbling got louder and louder.
"Yes! This is what we needed Cervantes! Behold Lime! The ultimate power of the seas will soon show itself to us! HAHAHAHAH this is truly ROMAAAAAANCE!"
Roman maniacally kept playing the massive organ in the captain's cabin, sending blasts of sound as if in challenge to the powers that soon would show themselves to the jigglies, with his performance being helped by the chorus of mermaids and sirens, the configuration of the instrument that once was used just for a hobby changed into a veritable weapon of sonic destruction blasting away a giant wave that threatened to capsize the ship.
(The rule of cool is a must after all.)
"Puru~ Soon Captain Lime will conquer the very seas themselves, fear the Jiggly pirates and bend to my will, yaarrr!" Lime crossed her arms and stared with a challenge at the surfacing titan of the seas, her jiggly hair flowing wildly with the force of the storm hitting her.
"Puru~ my sister will show that oversized eel who truly deserves the title of the ruler of the seas, Her punishment is long due for sinking all those ships!" Erubetie did her best to improve morale as the jigglies who didn't want to be here at all swallowed their fears and began cheering for their captain.
ROAR KRAKOM
Another flash of lightning struck the seas revealing the once-shadowed monster, her giant tail appearing and disappearing under the waves apparently without end. Each segment of her pearly white serpentine tail covered a distance higher than the main mast of our ship, and as her female torso rose from the seas we felt like it could touch the heavens themselves.
KRAKOW
A final blast of lightning fell from the skies, this time hitting the giant horn on the creature's forehead, flashes of electricity ran over her body lighting her up like a blue sun in the seas before being dispersed all around her, a bunch of dead sea life floating upwards right after.
"So you are the tiny upstarts who dare to challenge your betters," the Narwhal girl looked down into our comparably tiny ship and snorted as she saw the crew members.
"A group of arachnids wanting to play sailor, hahaha, and what's that? Two slime weaklings? Mermaids? Sirens and a bunch of humans? Not even a Yoma in sight? I came out here for a challenge and got this bad joke?" The Narwhal groaned before frowning at us, even though already covered by the darkness of this storm, her face somehow got darker, and only the smallest of glints in her eyes could be seen in the void.
"I was having a good time after beating down that pesky manta girl but you just dropped my good mood to the very depths!" Narwhal readied herself to attack the jigglies, but they got the initiative.
"Jigglies! Attack!" The upgraded cannons blasted away at the sea monster with their explosive ammo overcharged with the thunder element, The Narwhal girl couldn't ignore them for long even if it felt like mosquito bites to her, this only served to get the titan angrier.
"You little pieces of sea slug shit, stop that!" the Narwhal breathed in before releasing her roar to knock everyone out, wanting to swallow them, ship and all in one gulp after knocking out their pitiful resistance, but Roman and his choir had other plans.
"You want a musical battle? IT'S ON! Everyone together now!"
SLAM! LA~ LAAAA~ LAAAAAAAAAA~ SKRIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK~BOOOM
The sonic weapon roared boosted by its choir, A cacophony of the worst sounds the world ever heard generated a blast of noise that clashed with the narwhal girl's roar cancelling it out. If it wasn't for Lime protecting them all beforehand by having pieces of herself inside everyone's ear ducts, they would be deaf for life, as their entire auditory system would get obliterated otherwise, sadly for narwhal she didn't have Lime's ear muffs protecting her, so she took the brunt of the soundwave in full getting dazed in the process.
"Gah! What the hell did you do?!" Horn began trashing around with the worst migraine she ever got, her tail making veritable tsunamis all over the battlefield, as she lowered her body enough that the main fighters could jump on her.
"Jigglies, attack!"
With renewed fervor the cannons began blasting away at the Narwhal, this time The mermaid canons were used, a mind-baffling thing that Roman still couldn't believe was real even after seeing it in use, as the mermaids loaded themselves into the weapon and were fired at their enemy screaming like berserkers as they lodged the harpoons they were carrying deep into Narwhal's flesh, not satisfied with that, they used it as handlebars to begin filleting the flesh around the wounds, making the once pearl white flesh of the titan slowly become red from all the slashes forming on her skin.
"Gyaaaahhh!"
Horn trashed around even more and her tail finally hit the ship, almost capsizing it, but, after all the repairs and reinforcements done to it to try and keep their captain from destroying the ship herself with her shenanigans, the S.S. Jiggly was strong enough to not get instantly blasted into smithereens by the power of the sea serpent, many jigglies onboard still fell to the seas but were promptly rescued by the mermaid squads.
"How dare you, how dare you, how dare you!" Horn's anger at the jigglies was so great, that if she had eye magic she would use it to kill them all at this moment.
"We dare because we want you in our ranks Narwhal!" Lime threw her elemental-charged boomerang dealing massive damage as it exploded at her torso before coming back.
"You're the stuff of legends, your power would make us invincible at the seas!" Roman slammed the keys once again releasing another sound blast toward the monster girl.
BLAM SKREEEEEEAK LAAAAAAA~
Another sonic wave blasted at her body. The headache was nowhere as horrible as the first time, since it didn't have a boost from her roar mixed with it, but she still felt her insides vibrating from the power of the attack, after being hit by Lime's explosive boomerang the power was enough that she lost her proudful straight posture and fell to the seas, with only her torso being above the waters she gazed at the jigglies with a tinge of respect.
"Huff, well, now that's a surprise, you're really greedy aren't you Jiggly Pirates!?" Her anger diminished just a little now that she knew the reasoning behind their actions, "I can't fault you for desiring my power, with me protecting you no one in the seas would ever dare to cross your way and you just showed you don't just bark, but have the bite to challenge me."
The crew was almost ecstatic about the compliment, many of them never thought they had a chance against one of the legends of the sea, but look at them now, not only wounding her but bringing the Narwhal down to eye level, even Cervantes, pessimist that he was, began forming a smile.
"So, will you join us?!" Roman and Lime walked to the beak of the ship and looked at Narwhal straight in the eyes extending their hands, hopeful about the outcome, but Horn would need far more befriending to accept being part of the crew.
"Ahahahahah, if you think just this much can make me be your pet, you didn't see my battles against Manta! Are you screwing with me you fools?! Who do you think I am!"
As she said that the narwhal girl fully dived into the sea as the storms calmed down, the eerie tranquility made Roman remember every sea monster battle he had seen in movies and games, soon he lost any composure he had and screamed to the crew while running towards the center of the ship.
"Get ready, she's going to attack the ship from below!"
And attack the ship she did, body slamming it from below the S.S. Jiggly was thrown high into the skies, a fall like that would be fatal to the jigglies, as the Narwhal waited with a smug expression looking up at them she slowly opened her mouth ready to catch all the delicious treats she would soon be getting.
"Huh, where's my food?" But as time passed the Narwhal became more and more confused with the lack of people falling into her mouth.
"Surely someone should be falling already?! Where are they!" Horn got angrier, and the mermaids at the sea wanting nothing to do with the consequences soon took off with the crewmates they rescued to a safe place while the Narwhal was distracted.
(Please defeat her guys, we won't be able to live in the seas or even past today if you don't) They offered a silent prayer to the ship in the sky as they left.
S.S. Jiggly at the skies
Back at the ship, all the jigglies were grouped in one place as the spiders frantically spun their webs, with their lives on the line, they tied up the crewmates firmly to the ship so they wouldn't be launched overboard, Lime and Erubetie enveloped everyone with their Slime the moment Roman warned about the attack and held for life with their tendrils piercing deep into the ship for extra anchorage.
"What's the plan now!" Cervantes screamed full of adrenaline as he saw the clouds pass by fast with the ship still rising the skies.
(I'm a man of the seas dammit not a bird!)
"Narwhal must be waiting under us like an idiot wanting some tasty treats and very confused with the lack of jiggly snacks not coming to her" Roman began rubbing his chin in thought before a lightbulb formed.
"I propose that those reckless enough jump down with their harpoons and give her a free acupuncture treatment to the face!" Roman's lips formed a psychotic smile.
"You're insane!" Cervantes cried out, but deep down he loved the idea.
(We either defeat the monster, or we become fat in her tits but the ending to our story today will be a legend to be passed down no matter what), The same insane smile began forming on the older man's lips.
"I know!"
"Fufufu, but that would risk killing her, doesn't that defeat the entire point of what we're trying to do my dear?" Hime surprisingly was the voice of reason this time, pulling the men out of their shared adrenaline-fueled insanity.
"Oh... Ok, it's a bad plan!" Roman defused and went back to the rational certainly not clinically insane person he was.
"Puru~ but I like that plan Roman~" The most unexpected girl to agree with something so violent spoke to everyone.
"Lime?"
"But instead let's try to cut off her horn~ it will be a great trophy for my cabin~" The jiggly ball of happiness smile was so innocent no one would believe this idea came from her mouth.
"Puru~ my cute sister is right, Narwhals prize themselves over their horns, she would admit defeat if we found a way of cutting it off~ Let's do it!" Erubetie giggled at the punishment the oversized eel would soon get for hurting S.S. Jiggly.
"When you put it that way..." Roman visualized on it would go and it was reckless, but also cool, and that's what mattered in the end.
"Ok me and Hime will jump down and try to cut her horn off as we pass by her face during the fall, Lime and Erubetie will shield the impact against the water working as our armor," Roman Turned to the once emo, and now childish slime queen.
"Can you do it Erubetie? I hope our differences are past us, for Lime's sake."
The pirate held his hand towards her as she looked down on it, in contemplation, Time was tickling down as the ship reached its apex and began its free fall into the seas, and Narwhal, Erubetie still had some bad will towards the man that offended her so much, but seeing how he and these humans worked so well with monsters and above all how Lime was happy and valued them, she wouldn't let it cloud her judgment towards what needs to be done.
(These people feel like they are tighter as a community than Remina back then.)
"Let us do this" Erubetie held the man's hand firmly and instead of going to Spider Princess, she fused with Roman instead, as it was the first time she enveloped a human without the intent to eat them, Roman's Eru armor looked like a puffed up blob still dripping with slime in places.
"Puru... I wanted to go with Roman..." Lime pouted looking at Erubetie getting her hubby.
"Fufufu this is the moment Erubetie begins to fall for our dear Roman, It will do good for her Lime, and possibly change her views on humanity like I did Fufufu ~" Hime embraced Lime as the pouting girl covered the spider's body becoming an almost skin-tight film of powerful impact resistant jiggly armor.
"Godspeed you reckless insane bastards, the jigglies will be preparing a party when you come back."
Cervantes offered a slap on the back of the soon-to-be heroes, or dead meat, the other crewmates cheered as they too began giving slaps in the back and tapping the shoulders of their leaders before evacuating the ship, either by the Sirens flying off with them, or the spiders making a giant ball of web and cocooning everyone inside.
"Uoooooohhh!" Roman ran towards the beak of the ship and jumped, as he became a meteor of blue gloop during the fall as Erubetie was making the fine changes to her fusion skill, so he wouldn't be impaired at the moment he cut.
"Hyaaahhhh!" For all her bravado, Hime really didn't like flying, considering spiders and water didn't mix and the sea was approaching fast.
"Puru~ this is fun!" Lime was having the time of her life and began thinking about using the sirens in the future to get thrown down from the skies more.
"Weeeeee~" Erubetie also was having a blast, her childish original personality surfacing fully now that the final touches were done to the Eru armor.
As the group kept falling through the clouds, they hoped they wouldn't miss the giant who could just sway to the side and catch them as they hit the sea, once their vision cleared they felt relief seeing they were en route directly to Narwhal's head who now had a horrible expression on her face with the lack of tasty treats falling for her, her tail slamming across the ocean and making tsunamis on a tantrum, before the girl finally noticed them and her face cleared into a joyful and smug expression, seeing that she would finally eat well.
"At last, you took your damn time didn't you!" The Monster assured of her victory opened her arms as if to embrace the soon-to-be dead.
"I promise, you will feel good inside me I'll make sure of it in respect of the challenge you provided my little ones~" The giant woman cooed seductively, in the end, she was still lamia-like and the serpentine sway of her body was a sight for sore eyes.
"Yeah, how about no! We'll be taking that horn and making you a permanent member of our crew!"
"Revenge for our ship!"
"And my piano!"
The group finally reached her head, and time seemingly stopped as a flash of light cut off her horn cleanly! Stunning the Narwhal with the shock from losing her prized horn.
"We did it, Roman! Betie!" Hime and Lime were ecstatic as they fell to the seas, but soon they panicked looking around for Roman and Erubetie and not finding them anywhere.
Inside a very comfy fleshy full of liquids undescribed place
"Well shucks, we miscalculated," Instead of passing through Narwhal's horn and cutting it like some anime samurai flick, Roman and Erubetie fell right inside her gullet and now were floating inside her stomach.
"Sorry Roman... it seems my control of our fusion wasn't as perfected as I thought," Erubetie felt bad for flubbing this badly, the childish glee she had during the free fall blinded her to the trajectory and this was the result.
"Well at least you're here with me protecting me from passing out from her stomach juices, Thank you Erubetie, really." Roman tried to make peace with the slime queen after their differences, it would be bad manners to lambast her with insults right now.
"Are you feeling well Erubetie?" Roman looked down concerned at the trembling blob shielding him "I mean you're in full contact with her juices, and stomach juices of monsters disable their victims faster than their pussies, or so I've heard."
"Hmmm~ do you have an interest in feeling what I am right now Roman~ How naughty, wanting that with this oversized eel instead of Lime~" Erubetie giggled, surprising Roman since she never showed this side in any of the games even in the good ending.
"I-I'm just worried about you, silly jelly! and stop touching that this situation is serious!" Roman groaned as Erubetie decided to play around with his naughty bits while inside a stomach of all places.
"Hmph, you're no fun!" Erubetie formed her face close to him while pouting "Even weakened the way I am, I'm still a slime queen! I won't deny Narwhal's juices are strong but I can literally be made of the thing if I wish to."
"Oh right, I forgot about that... Speaking of which, did you have any regrets about the things you did to all your past victims?"
"I won't deny, I am a bad person, Roman, You and Hime felt it firsthand as I tried to kill you, I was too far gone in my crusade before meeting Lime, I even challenged the monster lord back then to have a rule worse than Black Alice" Erubetie appeared thoughtful about the pirate's question
"I can only try to make amends now, in a way it was good that Lime destroyed so much of me together with Alma, those invasive thoughts, the ones demanding revenge or to bring more into their purgatory, the ones filled with scorn at people who still lived happily, even the friends who accepted fusing with me thinking it was the best way..." Erubetie's mood was worsening.
"I wonder where I went wrong, I used to be like Lime once upon a time and now I'm like this..." This was why Erubetie valued Lime so much, as she saw herself in the happy-go-lucky idiot.
"Hmmm, as long as you truly regret it and try to make amends instead of going with some idiotic excuse as I mellowed out, I believe that you can do good you silly little slime" Roman patted Erubetie's head "After all, you did take the first step meeting the queen in Grand Noah."
"If you keep acting like this toward me I'll get the wrong message Roman, ahn~" Erubetie moaned lewdly, It seemed that Narwhal's gastric juices were taking their toll on the slime queen, the headpat she got just now helping it on bypassing her defences.
"Our time seems to be running out, I wonder if Lime defeated her already" as Roman took his hand of Erubetie's head both were surprised when everything around began shaking furiously
RUMBLE
"WOA" Both screamed as a sudden pressure sent both rising up fast the Narwhal's digestive system.
GUSH
"What's happeniiiiiiiing!"
FSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Minutes before with Lime, Horn, and Princess after finding out Roman was eaten
"Give them back! give them back! give them back!"
"Calm down Lime, please!"
"But she ate Roman and Betie!"
Horn admitted defeat once she saw her large horn floating at the seas by Lime and Hime's side, when asked about where the other two went she remembered a nasty feeling passing fast into her mouth before it was swallowed.
"I think they missed their target," Horn rubbed her head with shame looking down at the slime girl who she found out was the wife of the human she just swallowed together with the heavenly knight of water.
"Then vomit them out!" Lime kept attacking Horn, doing little damage as now she was a friend.
"But that's shameful! What if Manta sees me doing that, I would be ridiculed for the rest of my life!" Horn's entire face was red with a strong blush thinking about the bullying she would suffer by that titty fish.
"He was my hubby!" Lime kept attacking as she slowly grew without the other two noticing.
"And the monster lord won't like knowing that her knight was eaten by mistake," Hime added to the side putting pressure on the giant girl.
(If the monster lord finds it out I'm sashimi! dammit!) Horn was between a rock and a hard place now as she debated with herself what she should do, before coming to a decision, she got decked in the face by a giant slime fist!
"Lime you're huge! Kyaaa!" Spider Princess was thrown off the horn she used as her lifesaver and into the sea.
(Fuck! fuck fuck fuck! I refuse to die humiliated like this after what we just accomplished! Time to see if I can survive underwater like those rare species of spiders do! I'm the Queen of Spiders dammit!) Hime cursed as she sank into the seas.
Lime grew tremendously by absorbing the seawater around her, her status above a Queen-type slime made it so she wouldn't disperse and die with this act that many of her species wouldn't ever consider to begin with.
"Give them back already!" Lime kept decking Horn, and the Sea Serpent attacked back, this was self-defense now, Lime was too far into distress to think clearly.
"Calm down, I'll give them back just let me try it first!" Horn punched Lime's head off but it just reformed with an angry frown before she got a slimey haymaker for her troubles.
The battle of Titans kept going until Horn lost all her breath with the vicious punch to the gut Lime did to the girl, forcing her to vomit her friends out, a shockwave could be seen forming out of her back.
"Guhhh, oh this shucks BLEEAAAGH!"
Horn vomited whatever remained of her breakfast into the seas together with a blue gloopy orb which Lime promptly rescued, not caring about getting her hands inside the vomit to do it.
"Roman! Betie! Oh thank you, thank you, you survived!"
The duo was impressed by what they saw, their Little Lime became Huge Lime.
"Did I just miss a kaiju battle? dammit!" Roman mumbled annoyed to himself before giving a thumbs up to his girl "Just a little stomach acid isn't enough to defeat us Lime! Erubetie protected me the entire time!"
"Puru~ I wouldn't have my bestest sis crying because of us!" Erubetie reformed herself and puffed her chest.
"Thank you Betie~ I'll let you play more with Roman and me as a reward Puru~"
"Hehehe... I can't wait, Puru~"
(Well I'm screwed)
"Oh I feel horrible now, There you have your friends back, you could just have waited and I could have done it myself but nooo, you had to punch me in the gut didn't you captain?" Horn grabbed their attention as she got her horn from the sea and placed it above the stump before it fused back into her head.
"Oh, sorry Horn-chan, but you still ate my hubby!" Lime got defensive of Roman and Erubetie as she squeezed them tight to her bouncy chest.
"Well, they fed themselves to me, it's not my fault they missed their target..." Horn complained before giving her hand to Lime, "I hope you don't disappoint me Jiggly pirates! Let's go and beat the shit out of Manta and get her under our command too!"
"Puru~ Lets~!" Lime firmly shook hands with Horn as a new friendship was made.
"AHOYYY! Narwhal is part of our crew now, Hooray! hooray!" The other crewmates who fell from the skies partied hard on top of the ship wreckage and the spider cocoon, as the mermaids who escaped with the crew came back together with the sirens.
"I don't think the S.S. Jiggly can come back from that..." Roman commented saddened at the loss of his cool sonic weapon.
"We'll have to build a new stronger one, it will take weeks!" The engineering crew was annoyed to no end once the coin dropped about their next job.
"Did anyone see Hime by the way?" As if on cue Hime jumped out of the seas throwing curses all around not caring about keeping her facade of an elegant noblewoman.
"SPIDERS AND THE DEEP SEA DON'T MIX, I'LL NEVER DIVE AGAIN EVEN IF IT KILLS ME!" Hime kept cursing as she skittered up Horn's body placing herself firmly on her shoulders and holding for dear life, making the bigger girl really uncomfortable with how clingy she was being.
"Well, if you want a ship I know one that's been around for a long time, The place is eerie though, every time I get close I feel this compulsion to get away from it" Horn began remembering about that derelict ship around Gold Port which stayed in good condition even after all these years passed.
"Oh, could it be Captain Selene's ship!?" Roman cried out and got the attention of everyone.
"Jigglies, we found our new ship! Everyone, get whatever you can from the wreckage that still has value and get aboard our new friend!"
"Hay hay cap'n!"
"Hey hey hey, this tickles! Ahn~ don't touch that part! It's sensitive!" Horn didn't know what to do, she accepted her loss and would be the jiggly pirate's temporary vessel before they found their new ship, but having a bunch of tinies skittering around her body sent tingles all over it, who would've known that the giant was ticklish?
"ROMANCE!"
The storms parted and the blessings of the sun shone over the legendary pirates as a very ticklish Narwhal moaned the entire way to Gold Port and Selene's ship, Erubetie's power grind at Enrika could wait a little.
