《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 8: Two Planetoids And An Orbiton
Advertisement
Corrupted Krader stopped in his tracks to get a good look at Zorch. Seismo blinked twice, turning his pupil from an X back into an O. Seismo got up, and saw Zorch holding a coconapple in his hand.
"...I have a really bad feeling about this." Said Naut.
"So do I." Agreed S.
Krader suddenly started to charge after Zorch. Nurp-Naut and Rokit gasped, and then they flew towards Krader in an attempt to stop him from corrupting Zorch and Seismo.
"Hey, what happen?" Asked Seismo.
"..I.. I think Krader wants somethin' from me, I don't know." Assumed Zorch.
Corrupted Krader leapt and attempted to grab Zorch and Seismo mid-air, but Rokit and Nurp-Naut pushed the two mixels out of the way, causing Krader to land face-first onto the ground. Seismo and Zorch fell onto the ground due to Rokit and Nurp-Naut pushing them out of the way, with them both falling on their backs. Teslo and S sighed in relief, Teslo because the two mixels were safe, and S because she didn't want to see anymore people getting corrupted.
"What the heck was THAT!?" Shouted Zorch as he got off the ground.
The two Orbitons looked behind themselves, only they didn't have enough reaction time for Nurp-Naut to dodge Corrupted Krader's grasp.
"GAH, NURP-NAUT!" Shouted Rokit.
Rokit flew over Corrupted Krader and shot him with various lasers, but using the Darkness on himself, Corrupted Krader formed a forcefield, covering him and Nurp-Naut.
"LET ME GO YOU ROCKY PLANETOID!" Shouted Naut.
"Whý §h0úłđ Į¿ Īť'ś ņø-õ-óţ ł!ķə ýôűŕ çāń ďő @ńýţhíņğ." Questioned Corrupted Krader.
Nurp-Naut gasped in shock.
"YOU TAKE THAT BACK ABOUT ROKIT-" Nurp-Naut immediately switched to Nurp.
"YOU BIG BULLY!" Shouted Nurp.
Cut to outside of the forcefield, where we see Seismo and Zorch watch in shock as Rokit attempted to break the forcefield made of The Darkness.
"..Should we help him?" Asked Seismo.
"Well, duh! Of course we should!" Zorch told Seismo.
Zorch pulled out a rainbow cubit and ran to the side of the forcefield made of The Darkness, with Seismo following along.
"YO GREEN GUY, I GOTS A CUBIT!" Called Zorch, in an attempt to catch Rokit's attempt.
Rokit turned around, only to spot Zorch and Seismo calling for someone to mix with.
"Oh, finally!" Said Rokit.
Rokit flew over to Zorch, and then he, Zorch, and Seismo all held onto the rainbow cubit, triggering the cubits illusion. The three mixels turned into pictures of themselves on a yellow blanket on an ironing table. A giant iron flew over to the blanket and ironed the blanket really fast, to the point where both the blanket and the iron turned into the word "MIX".
"MIX!" Shouted Rokit, Zorch, and Seismo.
The mix flew over to the forcefield, various laser-covered rocks being shot from his guns. However, the mix was careful enough (not to mention smart enough) to not go through the forcefield and risk getting corrupted. The rocks went through the forcefield, but the forcefield didn't break. This was when the mix knew lasers weren't enough, so he flew down to the ground and stomped to hard, it made the ground shake, along with the forcefield.
Finally, the forcefield melted, revealing Corrupted Krader with Corrupted Nurp-Naut in his grasp. The mix gasped in horror as he saw Nurp-Naut corrupted and mind-controlled by The Darkness. Teslo watched in horror as he saw the two corrupted mixels, but he knew he had to do something, but he just wasn't brave like Flain.

"Okay, S, T.. w-we need cubits, so you got some, right?" Stuttered Teslo.
"Uh..." Said S.
"Okay, you know what?" Said Teslo.
Teslo pulled out a rainbow cubit behind his back and held it in front of S and T. Still confused, S and T held onto the cubit.
"..Seriously?" Asked S.
"...I really hoped this would work on you guys too, and yes, I mentally doubted this would work, but I had to try anyway." Explained Teslo.
The mix flew towards Krader in an attempt to punch him in the face, but then Corrupted Krader out Corrupted Nurp-Naut in front of him, and the mix yelped and flew upwards, avoiding Corrupted Nurp-Naut. Corrupted Krader threw Corrupted Nurp-Naut at the mix, but the mix turned towards the coconapple tree, and Corrupted Nurp-Naut followed suit. The mix flew above the coconapple tree, but Corrupted Nurp-Naut flew to the side of the coconapple tree and continued to follow the mix.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" Shouted the mix in Rokit's voice.
Corrupted Nurp-Naut glitchily giggled.
"Î ķñøw ņ0 řəąşôņ whý Ï šhõųľđ." Said Corrupted Nurp-Naut.
Cut to Niksput, who is on a rocket sitting atop the roof of a blue rocket-powered van. He wakes up and opens his eye, but then he covered his eye with his left pincer due to the adjustment to the sun. He then heard a door open and when Niksput turned to his right, he saw two green people with yellow hair. One was short and round, while the other was tall and skinny.
"Okay, Buhdeuce. Just because a day starts out bad doesn't mean it has to end up bad." The taller person told the smaller person.
"Rodger that!" Said the smaller person.
The taller person then knocked on a door to a rhythm, and the person who answered a door was a giant duck wearing an orange wig, a pearl necklace, and a pink gown.
"Melanie Duckleson, we have your order of Peppernickel Bread." The taller duck told the giant duck.
With a loaf of Peppernickel Bread in hand, Buhdeuce ran up to the giant duck.
"The honor, Melanie, is all mine." Announced Buhdeuce.
However, the pepper from the Peppernickel Bread got into Buhdeuce's face, causing Buhdeuce to sneeze onto the loaf of Peppernickel Bread. However, Niksput was confused by this experience. Why the heck would someone put so much pepper onto a perfectly good loaf of bread? Buhdeuce then sneezed onto Melanie and then he farted, and the fart somehow punched Melanie in the face.
"Ugh. Definitely having a bad day." Noted Buhdeuce.
"Pssh, I can relate." Niksput told himself.
Having heard the Orbiton leader, the two green people's faces turned into shocked expressions and them the two people slowly turned around, only to find an alien latching on top of the top of their rocket van.
"AGH, AN ALIEN WANTS TO KIDNAP US!" Shouted Buhdeuce.
"Hey, Buhdeuce, calm down." The taller person told Buhdeuce.
"Yeah, why the heck do you think I wanna kill you guys?" Asked Niksput.
"..IT TALKS, KILL THE ALIEN! KILL IT!" Shouted Buhdeuce.
"Buhdeuce, chill out! He hasn't even done anything yet!" The taller person told Buhdeuce.
But then all of a sudden, a truck carrying a ramp with Peg and Cat on it rolled onto the scene (the way M and the Honest Brothers went into a commercial).
"AGH, THEY'RE SPREADING! TELL ME THERE'S A WAY TO STOP IT, SWAYSWAY!" Shouted Buhdeuce.
"Woah, slow your roll, bap!" Swaysway told Buhdeuce.

"Let's just introduce ourselves and then we'll get back to our deliveries because it's our DUTY AS A BREADWINNEEEERR!"
"..You just had to pull the 'duty as a Breadwinner' card." Said Buhdeuce.
(Fun Fact: This is a reference to an episode of Breadwinners called "Food Fight Club".)
Buhdeuce then cleared his throat and then he introduced himself and Swaysway, and then Niksput introduced himself afterwards, and then Peg and Cat did the same thing.
"So why did you guys come here?" Asked Swaysway.
"We were trying to get away from The Darkness which is this glitchy goop that corrupts everyone it touches!" Peg told Swaysway.
The two bread-delivery ducks paused in shock.
"That.. is actually horrifying." Said Swaysway.
"Well, it's the truth, after all. You just can't beat that." Admitted Niksput.
Cut to somewhere else in the city of Pondgea, whereas we see Rambamboo writing a speeding ticket for a duck in a red sports car. When she was done writing the ticket, she slams it onto the windshield and tells the duck to follow the rules or else he'll go to the slammer. After that, the duck in the sports car drove off nonchalantly.
"Heh, still got it." Chuckled Rambamboo as she brushed off her shoulder.
Static was heard in the background, causing Rambamboo to go into a shocked expression and immediately look behind herself. She yelped when she found Corrupted Flain suddenly behind her back, with The Darkness leaking from his head through his prongs, out of his beak, on his legs, and on his pincers.
"Excuse me, you're on the road. GET ON THE SIDEWALK BEFORE YOU GET RUN OVER, LAW-BREAKER!" Shouted Rambamboo.
But Corrupted Flain didn't listen. He walked closer to Rambamboo, and then he snatched her hat and ran into an alley.
"HEY, THAT'S BURGLARY ON A LICENSED COP!" Barled Rambamboo.
Rambamboo used her jetpack and zoomed towards the corrupted Infernite. When he and she finally got to the end of the alley, Rambamboo snatched back her hat, put it on herself, and held Corrupted Flain up. However, large amounts of static began to sound out, and it came from a portal in front of Rambamboo herself. Inside the portal was a dark blue hallway full of portals to millions and millions of cartoons, along with another corrupted Infernite named Meltus.
"..Sir, is this graffiti? I can file you for two rules being broken at once and you do NOT want that!" Rambamboo told Corruped Flain.
"Ţhāť w0ñ'ţ bə ňęćčé§ş@rý." Said Corrupted Flain.
"!'vë ţhė můłť!vêŕşě j-j-j-jûśț țô s-s-šīmpľý ńûļľ øut @łļ óf ťhě ćhåô§ śpřəađ thřôůģhoųț. Wøûlďn'ț ý0ů ł!kę ļīke ťhăț? A wőŕļđ without harm?"
Rambamboo thought about what Corrupted Flain said. Sure he said he wanted to remove chaos from the multiverse, but that didn't mean she couldn't file him for breaking two rules.
"Just because you're doing something good for the multiverse doesn't mean up can't go to jail. YOU BROKE TWO LAWS AND YOU KNOW IT!" Barked Rambamboo as she looked at Corrupted Flain in the eyes.
But Corrupted Flain said nothing. He stared at Rambamboo, and did nothing. Corrupted Meltus walked out of the portal, and ran towards Rambamboo.
"býę!" Exclaimed Corrupted Meltus.
"Okay, DO YOU BOTH WANNA GO TO THE SLAMMER-" Rambamboo suddenly got interrupted by Corrupted Flain blasting The Darkness onto her face from the top of his head.
Rambamboo dropped Flain and attempted to pull The Darkness off her face, but it just wouldn't budge. The two corrupted Infernites walked back into the portal.
*Commercial Break*
Cut to the rocket van in the air with Niksput (with Peg and Cat holding onto him) flying next to said rocket van. One of Scorpi's ears can be seen poking out of the back of the rocket van through the space between the two doors. Niksput told Swaysway and Buhdeuce all about the Darkness just to keep them aware (and safe) so that they could know to protect themselfes from it.
"Wow, this 'Darkness' problem really must've messed you guys up, huh?" Swaysway told Niksput.
"Tell me about it! What's worse is it can travel through universes so even if you leave your home, it'll still take you alive!" Complained Niksput.
"AND I'm pretty sure me and Rokit are now traumatized because of this ever since Nurp-Naut got corrupted."
"..Wow, I bet you must've had even the guts to face all that, huh?" Asked Swaysway.
"Not only that, but this guy saved me and Peg! He's a real hero!" Exclaimed Cat.
Cut to somewhere in the sky. A corrupted Rambamboo slowly flies up into the sky from the bottom of the scene, her mouth hanging wide open and leaking The Darkness from out her mouth. Corrupted Rambamboo flew to the right side of the rocket van and bashed against it, causing the rocket van to bash against Niksput, causing Cat to yelp as he almost fell until he grabbed Peg's green dress. This bash also caused Buhdeuce to fall out of his seat on his left side.
"Ow, bubble nuggets!" Said Buhdeuce.
"What the, how'd you fall?" Swaysway asked Buhdeuce.
As if to answer, Corrupted Rambamboo bashed against the van again, causing Swaysway to yelp. Buhdeuce climbed on top of his seat and looked out the window, only to find that Rambamboo has been corrupted by the Darkness.
"AGH, THE DARKNESS GOT RAMBAMBOO!" Shouted Buhdeuce.
Buhdeuce then generated a fist from his chest to punch the lever down, which caused the rocket van to blast past Niksput, Peg, Cat, and Corrupted Rambamboo.
"But what about us, Buhdeuce?" Called Cat.
Suddenly, before Niksput could blast towards the rocket van, Corrupted Rambamboo bashed against Niksput, causing him, Peg, and Cat to fall. However, all three of them and Corrupted Rambamboo suddenly glitched into Springfield with three of the survivors being on the roof of the Simpsons' house while Corrupted Rambamboo was just hovering over them. Niksput grabbed Peg and Cat and then he flew off towards the left of the Simpsons' house, and then Corrupted Rambamboo chased after him.
*Commercial Break*
Niksput was zigzagging all around the city part of Springfield inder the night sky with Corrupted Rambamboo on his tail, but then he spotted a donut shop nearby, so he flew in there. When he flew into the entrance, Corrupted Rambamboo missed and flew to the right side of the donut shop and slammed onto the concrete ground. Panting of worry, our three survivors were about to decide to settle in this donut shop until a cashier (clearly underage judging by the acne on his face) spoke up to them.
"Excuse me, you're going to have to pay for that French door." The cashier told the three survivors with many voice cracks in his tone.
"..Uh, is it okay if I sing you a song instead?" Asked Peg as she pulled out her ukulele.
She was about to inhale as if to start singing, but she was interrupted with yet another reminder from the cashier.
"Sorry, cash or credit only." Apologized the cashier.

Summoned
“Per aspera ad astra." Death. Mercilessly, it comes for all. But when a young man is given a second chance – a second life – to experience what he never has, what will he do? Leave the burdens of his past behind, improving upon his faults? Or will he collapse back into old sins, wasting the opportunity given to him? Perhaps even he himself does not know. * Join Andre on his journey as he explores a new world – one ripped straight from the pages of a D&D campaign he's never played. He will face monsters. He will face men. And above all, he will face himself. The story’s genre is your standard progression fantasy, isekai: magic, a system, and a level of technology suspiciously underdeveloped. I’ve borrowed tropes from various books I’ve read like “The Second Coming of Gluttony”. The similarities are there (particularly in the beginning), but I assure you the story is my own. It’s in the first-person perspective and has its own quirks, characters, and world for you to become immersed in. The upload schedule for this will be different from the usual fictions on this site: I’ll release chapters in batches rather than so many a week. I’m a college student, so I don’t want another deadline to worry about. Depending on the popularity/demand of the series, I might increase or decrease the rate of releases. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the story! P.S. This is my first fiction so make sure to point out mistakes wherever you see them. I’m doing this, partly, to increase my skill as a writer. However, be kind! I’m fragile, you know? Warning: ***This is far from your happy-go-lucky, feel-good adventure story. There will be content that some of you might not be comfortable with. And if you're already feeling skeptical reading this, click away and don't come back. If you're still here, what are you waiting for?***
