《The Misadventures of a Young Dark Magician》Episode 16 (Part 2)

Bridget, Midoricha, and Gurenji made it to a part of the region where the green had resided. They went through the odd forest in search of the antidote.
“There’s so much green in this place, too much of it!” Gurenji said in a disgusted tone.
“There’s also a lot of bugs around here too,” Midoricha added.
“Well, yeah. There are a bunch of crazy and different worlds out there. You never know what happens in each of them...”
“Huh.”
Just then, a familiar female voice called out to them.
“Guys, can you hear me?”
“Was that Saki I just heard?” Bridget asked.
“I think I heard it too,” Gurenji replied.
“Please, listen to me.” The Princess pleaded. “You must leave this place at once.”
“But why?” Bridget questioned.
“Yeah, why?” Gurenji and Midoricha added in unison.
“It’s dangerous; more enemies have invaded the world. If you don’t make it out of there—”
“But what about your mom?” Gurenji asked, “Weren’t we going to—?”
“I know, but...”
“No, we’ll take our chances.” Bridget interrupted. “We promised to get the antidote for you, right, Saki?”
“Yeah, we won’t give up!” Gurenji agreed.
“Well, ok, I trust you guys,” Murasakiiro replied.
“All right, let’s get going, then!” Bridget declared.
“Yeah!” Midorichi and Gurenji nodded in agreement before heading off once again.
“You know, that’s the first time I’ve heard you agree with me on something.” Bridget pointed out.
“Well, of course,” Gurenji responded proudly. “What you said was 101% correct.”
“I, also, agree,” Midoricha added.
“You’ve been quiet lately, Midoricha...” Bridget commented.
“Well, I didn’t want to get yelled at by Gurenji again.”
“Look, about that...” Gurenji began. “What I meant by that is you shouldn’t state the obvious all the time.”

“Oh, now I get it.”
A rustle in the bushes got the group’s attention. Bridget turned and watched as a strange creature jumped out from the bushes. It had heads and limbs attached to one giant flabby blob with red eyes, purple arms, and a black swarming torso.
As it walked towards them in an unsettling way, Bridget, Midoricha, and Gurenji all made a break for it and sprinted away.
They ran for their lives, trying not to trip and get caught by the strange creature until they came across a cliff. Stuck in a tight spot, with little time to think of a way out of their mess, the blobs inched closer to them. The Pilkons could probably float away, but what would that leave Bridget?
“What should we do now?” Gurenji asked.
“Jump!” Bridget yelled.
“What? Are you out of your mind?” Gurenji doubled back in shock.
“That's a fantastic idea; let’s do it!” Midoricha exclaimed.
Without looking back, Bridget leaped off the cliff, with the other two Pilkon following right behind her. Gurenji and Midoricha grabbed on to Bridget’s feet so she could float down safely onto the ground.
After separating from her feet, the three looked up as the creatures didn’t follow them. Then again, considering how steep the cliff was, they couldn’t be sure if it wasn’t following them.
“Man, that was a close one.” Bridget sighed in relief.
“My head hurts,” Gurenji complained.
“And that’s a long way up from here,” Midoricha commented. “Guess there’s no turning back now.”
“Tell me about it,” Gurenji muttered bitterly.
“Let’s get going then. Hopefully, we should be almost there...” Bridget proclaimed.
She continued to walk the path in front of her, with the Pilkons not too far behind.

Luster
Growing up with her recently deceased mother’s addiction and her own struggles with gender identity, June Fujiwara was not a nice person. Gaining powers from nearly being murdered didn’t change that, and neither did becoming a mercenary to fund her transition. It took horrific manipulation, the resulting trauma, and the family that helped her through it all. Luster is a derivative work based on Worm by Wildbow (John C. McCrae) that begins prior to Worm and although it doesn't show straight away, the story is very AU.
