《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 5: Edutainment Meets A Mixel

"Silly sausages!" Called A.
Like before, S flew towards the group and landed on her feet, thinking there could be silly sausages somewhere around the place.
"Did someone say 'silly sausages'?" Asked S.
M then walked on over to S and T, being hungry due to realizing someone mentioned sausages.
"Mmm!" Exclaimed M.
"Terribly sorry, no sausages." T told S and M.
"A's playing tricks!"
"Ooh!" Said S and M.
Teslo tried to walk towards the Alphablocks once again. However, O was also walking towards the Alphablocks.
"O o o, o o o?" Asked O.
P popped next to M to tell him to have the prank stop.
*Commercial Break*
Cut to A who is seen giggling. O walks over to A and honks her nose, causing him to float next to T and M which in turn caused the five Alphablocks to make the word "Stomp". A giant brown boot stomped into the scene and stomped all over the place, leaving black footprints.
"Stomp, stomp, stomp, what's that? Oh no!" Exclaimed S, T, M, and P.
The giant boot was about to put O on top of itself, but it suddenly paused. Teslo ran towards the boot to examine it more closely, except he hadn't realized the Alphablocks were now seeing him in sight.
"O, o o o? (Hey, who are you?)" O asked Teslo.
Teslo looked behind himself, only to find O looking pretty confused.
"..W-well, I'm Teslo. And you are?" Introduced Teslo.
"He's not 'R', his name's 'O'!" Laughed S.
Suddenly, the giant boot began to glitch. Teslo immediately looked behind himself and backed away, bumping into O.
"O o o o, o o o. (Obviously, this is weird.)" Worried O.
"O o o! (Really weird!)"
"Guys, trust me. You have to get away from this boo-" Teslo was rudely interrupted by the static sounds of the giant boot.
A stopped smiling and then got pretty worried about the situation she and her friends were in. She hadn't planned this, she just wanted the boot to carry O away, not scare everyone! Teslo motioned for the Alphablocks to follow him into the background. The boot stopped pausing itself and carried O like it was about to before.
However, the boot started leaking The Darkness as it stomped and stomped.
"NO, O!" Shouted Teslo.
Teslo turned towards S, T, A, M, and P.
"Quick, can you create something that could get O back from the Darkness?" Teslo frantically asked the five Alphablocks.
But the Electroid leader hadn't realized they weren't the right Alphablocks needed to bring O back. An awkward silence occurred.
"I'll take that as a no!" Said Teslo.
Teslo then ran after the glitchy boot and O, but then N ran towards S, T, A, M, and P.
"Did someone say 'no'?" Asked N.
Cut back to Teslo and the glitchy boot. It was a frantic cat-and-mouse chase, only it's now a mixel-and-boot chase instead. O bounced on top of the boot as it stomped while Teslo barely kept up. O turned towards behind the boot, but then he saw Teslo.
O tried to jump off the boot, but instead he tripped and fell face-first onto the ground, his right leg leaking with The Darkness. Finally, Teslo ran to O, panting from the miles he ran just to catch up with O. O got up on his feet and the orange Alphablock greeted Teslo cheerfully, in his own O language, of course.
"Come on, there's no time to waste!" Teslo told O.

"We've gotta escape before The Darkness takes over your land like it did with mine!"
"O, o o o? (Wait, excuse me?)" O asked Teslo.
"O o o o o o, o o o o o o, o o o o o o o o o o! (I don't know what you are, or what The Darkness is, so maybe you should explain it sometime!)"
Teslo grabbed O's left arm and then they ran off back with the other Alphablocks. Speaking of which, the Darkness which the boot was leaking earlier left some tiny puddles of itself, concerning the six Alphablocks.
"Never attack us, NEVER!" N shouted at the Darkness.
"Tsk, tsk, it's slime! It can't talk, N." T told N.
However, as soon as T said that, Teslo and O ran on-screen.
"Quick, follow me before-" A suddenly interrupted Teslo with a question.
"Actually, I have a question." A told Teslo.
"Go for it!" Said Teslo.
A giggled and said that she already asked the question and then she honked her nose.
"There's no time for pranks, we've got evil slime to deal with!" Complained N.
Speaking of "evil slime", the puddles of The Darkness began to move towards each other, and then they merged into a pile of itself. A tall pile of itself, to be more specific.
"I-i'm ssscared!" Worried S.
"Just follow me and we'll be fi-" Once again, Teslo got interrupted, only it was by the glitchy boot doing a loud roar this time.
Teslo ran into the background and told S, T, A, M, N, and P to catch up, even though Teslo was still holding onto O's arm as he ran. The Electroid leader and the seven Alphablocks were racing against time into the background so they could get away from The Darkness. O started to slightly glitch, but his alphaling glitched the most. The group hadn't felt something blocking their run, which meant that they weren't close enough, according to Teslo.
"Come on guys, faster!" Worried Teslo.
"We're sprinting as swiftly as we can!" S told Teslo.
Meanwhile, Peg & Cat were in an underwater town full of walking and talking fish, also known as Bikini Bottom. The duo looked around in confusion as they eyed the underwater town and then they got up on their feet. A rumbling noise was heard, and it grew louder and closer by the minute. When Peg & Cat looked to their right, they saw a giant pile of growing meat with a bunch of fish running away from it while screaming.
"What the..?" Peg asked herself.
"Yes, YEEEES! COME TO PAPA!" Shouted a tiny green speck that was running after the giant pile of meat.
The green speck slammed itself onto the meat, letting it suck itself into it. Peg gasped, grabbed Cat, and ran away from the meat.
"What kind of world is this?" Peg asked herself.
"I don't know, but I want out of here!" Worried Cat.
The duo kept running and running, but the giant meat just kept growing. All of a sudden, they were now on a miniature racetrack which was being moved on a truck, away from the growing meat.
"..Phew." Sighed Peg and Cat in relief.
"Now where are we going?" Cat asked Prg.
"Hopefully away from here." Said Peg.
Meanwhile, back with Major Nixel, he was now sitting on the ground in his forcefield. Static noises were heard and when Major Nixel looked to his left, he saw O, Flurr, and Flain each in three new forcefields.

"Aw, COME ON!" Shouted Major Nixel.
"Just when this place was only annoying, it just got WORSE!"
"..Major Nixel?" Flain asked Major Nixel.
*Commercial Break*
Hold on, what in the.. just.. what are you doing here?" Stuttered Flain.
"Trust me, I've only been in here for 2 minutes straight." Spat Major Nixel.
"Now what do you want?"
"..Nothing right now, I guess." Said Flain.
"Wait, you know this guy?" Jewel asked Flain.
"Yeah, Major Nixel's the bad guy back in our world." Admitted Flurr.
"He nixed two of our Mixel Festivals, tried to steal our cubits, all of that."
Jewel Sparkles tilted her head in confusion due to having only minor conflict in her world.
"Excuse me? Are you saying he did all that?" Questioned Jewel, pointing to Major Nixel.
"Well, it's not like you did anything, your servants must've done it all!" Major Nixel told Jewel.
"Oh, or maybe since you look like some sugary princess, you ORDERED your citizens to do it all."
"I don't have servants!" Shouted Jewel.
"And for your information, I'm not a real princess, I just happened to look like one!"
Major Nixel groaned and then he turned his back to Jewel, and Jewel turned her back to Major Nixel. Clearly they had problems with each other. Meanwhile, Flamzer and Burnard had fallen onto a Family Feud stage.
"Name something a burglar would not wanna see when he breaks into a house." Said Steve Harvey.
The two men immediately pressed the red button on their podiums, which made a telephone ringing noise. Steve turned to the man to his left.
"NEKKID GRAMMAW!" Shouted Rod.
"Nekkid- HUH?" Blurted Steve.
Both the audience and Burnard started to laugh and cheer at the answer Rod gave out.
"THAT'S DISGUSTING!" Shouted Flamzer.
Steve Harvey looked at Flamzer and Burnard in confusion.
"Okay, who invited these red aliens on stage?" Asked Steve Harvey.
"Who are these little aliens and why are they here? And I'm pretty sure one of them's a red fire shrimp."
Burnard and the audience suddenly burst out laughing at Flamzer being called a scorpion.
"...I'll just go." Said Flamzer, sweating in nervousness.
Flamzer grabbed Burnard and slowly walked back into the portal he and Burnard made when they fell onto the stage. After they went back into the dark blue hallway of portals, Flamzer held his head in embarrassment. Suddenly, someone with a surfer accent said "He's been staring at that screen for a while." was heard in the distance.
"I get that he's worried about that goop, but it's been 24 minutes."
The two Infernites looked to their left, only to find a portal that showed three Orbitons. One in the background, and two close up.
"Yeah, I hear ya." Chimed in an elderly voice.
The two Infernites saw the two close up Orbitons floating to the one in the background but then, Flamzer gasped as he knew what the first close up Orbiton meant.
"Oh no, THEY'VE GOT THE DARKNESS ON THEIR HANDS!" Realized Flamzer.
Flamzer ran into the portal, except he forgot his tribemate. However, Burnard didn't jump into the portal along with Flamzer, he just stayed still and watched. Flamzer ran towards the Orbiton in the background and looked at the screen on the DS-like remote's screen. On the screen, it was a massively glitching image of Mixel Moon.
"Hey, what're you doing?" Asked the Orbiton with the screen.
"AGH, SORRY!" Shouted Flamzer.
"My name is Flamzer, and I only came here for an emergency along with Burnard to.. Burnard?"
Flamzer looked behind himself, only to find that he didn't bring Burnard. However, Burnard peeked his head out of the portal.
"Hey Rokit." Greeted Burnard.
"...Is that mixel 'Burnard'?" Asked Rokit.
"Yeah, he's my brother, actually." Said Flamzer.
Suddenly, a crash was heard along with the entire Mixel Moon shaking. As soon as Flamzer tumbled onto the wall next to Burnard, Burnard grabbed Flamzer and held onto him tightly while the Orbitons looked out the window, only to find a corrupted version of their drone had crash-landed onto Mixel Moon, next to the door of the dome of Orbitopia. The astronaut helmet-like Orbiton squinted his eye at the drone.
"Hold on, how did the drone get here?" The astronaut helmet-like Orbiton asked himself.
"How should I know?" Asked the dome-headed Orbiton.
Cut to outside of the dome of Orbitopia, where we see a few corrupted versions of cartoon characters emerge from The Darkness, and then we cut to a close-up on the DS-like remote where we see the exact same scene, only on the remote's screen. Cut to a close-up of the dome-headed Orbiton.
"Oh no, NOT THE DOME!" Shouted the dome-headed Orbiton.
The dome-headed Orbiton instantly flew towards the door of the dome of Orbitopia. The astronaut helmet-like Orbiton flipped his head, causing his elderly, cycloptic face to turn into a bicloptic, childish face.
"Rokit, wait up!" Shouted the astronaut helmet-like Orbiton in a childish voice.
"I wanna save Orbitopia, too!"
Cut to the door of the dome of Orbitopia where we see Corrupted Jewel open the door from behind, but then Rokit flies to the door and pressed a red button on a keypad next to the door, causing the door to close. Jewel opens the door again, and then Rokit yelps and shoots Corrupted Jewel in the face with his laser guns. However, it didn't kill her, it caused a hole to appear, replacing Jewel's face (which poured out The Darkness) to appear.
"..Uh.. CODE BLACK N' WHI-.." Rokit realized that 'Code Black N' White' was for nixels, not for corrupted cartoons.
"I NEED BACK UP OVER HERE!" Shouted Rokit.
"On it, bro!" Said the airplane-like Orbiton.
The airplane-like Orbiton grabbed the astronaut helmet-like Orbiton's right arm and flew towards Rokit. Meanwhile, Rokit tried to keep shooting Jewel and the Darkness (which was behind Jewel Sparkles), but it just didn't harm or kill them. When the two other Orbitons were behind Rokit, the astronaut helmet-like Orbiton flipped his head back to the cycloptic, elderly face.
"Rokit, grab on!" Shouted the astronaut helmet-like Orbiton in his elderly voice, pulling out an Orbiton Cubit from behind his back.
Rokit looked behind himself, and then the three Orbitons floated up and grabbed the cubit while shouting "MIIIX!". From the left and the right of the scene, planets on strings smashed the three Orbitons, causing them to turn into the word "MAX" while yelling "MAAX!".
"OH YEAH!" Shouted the Orbiton Max.
The Orbiton Max fired various lasers at the Darkness and Corrupted Jewel while the camera pans to the right, showing Orbitopia behind him. Cut to Flamzer and Burnard, with Flamzer struggling to break free of Burnard's grasp.
"Come... on.." Struggled Flamzer.
"Hahahaha, why're you trying to get out, scorpion?" Asked Burnard.
"Burnard, don't you get it? The Mixelverse is falling apart and we have to save it!" Shouted Flamzer.
"But Flamzer, it's no use! Your unive-e-è-ê-" The Darkness suddenly poured out of Burnard's mouth.
"Aš Í wä§ śîng, ý0ųr uņ!vərse is đóňe før, ţheře ï-i-iś nö hope." Continued Burnard, who is now corrupted.
"Wait, NO! IT CAN'T END LIKE THIS!" Yelled Flamzer.
"Ö-ő-oh, būt !ţ ānď wįlł!" Teased Corrupted Burnard.
Corrupted Burnard started to giggle, and then he laughed and laughed, which grew more and more maniacal by the second.

The Stars Have Eyes
The universe was a vast, empty, dark, and uncaring place. Then life happened, and the universe was changed forever. Only a teeny-tiny bit, but definitely different. Then again, the universe changes a teeny-tiny bit every second of every day. For instance, if someone were to get off the couch and randomly drink a glass of milk? Bam! One less glass of milk in the universe. Changed forever. Well, excluding any time-travel shenanigans, but anyone who puts a big old hole in the time-space continuum just to un-drink a glass of milk should really reevaluate their priorities. Unless, of course, they were attempting to prevent some massive catastrophe vis-a-vis said glass of milk. Such a scenario is by no means impossible, as one should never underestimate the importance of calcium. Another important tip for any life forms out there is to keep things in perspective. Some look at the vastness of creation in relation to themselves and go, ‘Man, this sucks!’ These people really need to narrow their focus. Sure, they will never affect anything happening on the other end of the galaxy, but so what? That’s way the heck over there, where it doesn’t matter. Therefore, in order to maintain a healthy mindset, it is important to narrow one’s perspective to the things and people that affect them, and that they can affect in turn. But what happens if one is an unfathomable cosmic being from beyond the veil of reality? What happens when such an existence is capable of influencing entire swathes of the universe just by its presence? A creature such as Magh'rathlak the Observer? That particular entity is only about average as far as reality-warping creatures from the dawn of time go, so its influence over the fabric of reality is rather limited. And it still struggles to keep things in perspective. That, among other things, is why it decided to narrow its worldview a bit by compressing the maddening vastness of its being into a single corporeal form. Magh'rathlak had never tried such a feat, but that wasn't about to stop it. After all, how hard could being human possibly be?

Blind As a Bat [1st book complete]
Book 1 He was cast to the edges of his clan. His father could not stand to even look at him. His baby sister probably didn't even know he was her brother... All because he, unlike all other vampire (The correct terminology will be Wanpyrkos; van-peer-coe-s) kind, was born blind. And what do all creatures do to those that are different, those that do not fit society, those that they think should not have been born to this civilized society...? [Book Cover Made by the wonderful THEMIDNIGHTECLIPSE13] - thank you! I'm only introducing the perspective of the main character for the first part. Things change drastically soon after that. [BDSM entries are clearly marked and written so they can be skipped without affecting the story] ***A couple scenes to whet your palate*** 1. "Uh, we heal from pretty much everything and anything. Have you ever tried physically damaging your eyes to see if they would fully heal?" "N-no. No, it doesn't work," I forced out, my voice a little strangled and cracking before hardening. "And stuff like that, isn't that just wrong?! Hurting someone just to 'fix' them." 2. I leaned and he met me, our soft lips touching and moving perfectly on each other's. I felt as his tongue ran the slit of my lips, my tongue coming to graze it as it passed over, knowing doing so was like catnip to him. He leaned closer, and I shivered as his hands ran from low on my hips and grazed along and up my ribs, pulling my chest closer to his so my body arched and rubbed against him. I hummed in appreciation. [warning: so far aggressive or physical bullying and maybe a little kidnappage and sexual themes as well as possible trigger warnings]
