《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 17: Congregation

Cut to Krog and Snoof.
"Sorry I doubted you, little buddy." Apologized Krog.
"Aww, that's okay Krog." Assured Snoof.
Krog scooped up Snoof, and then he gave him a noogie.
"Noogie!" Shouted Krog with a great, big smile.
Cut back to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"But first, you must perform a quest!" Continued the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut back to Krog and Snoof, with Krog still carrying Snoof.
"A quest?" Asked Snoof.
Now becoming furious with disbelief, Krog began to shake Snoof and drop him almost immediately.
"NOW LOOK WHAT YOUR DELUSIONS GOT US INTO, DOOFUS!" Barked Krog.
Cut back to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"You must undertake a search for fantastic riches; the long-lost Mixamajig!" Announced the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut to a pan of the Mixels staring in awe, with the Munchos eating, as the Maximum Mixel continued to speak.
"To its possessor, the Mixamajig shall grant all of their wildest mixing hopes and dreams!" Continued the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut back to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"The question is, which of you is special enough to be chosen as the keybearer?" Asked the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut to the Munchos. Snax is still eating popcorn while Berp is juggling.
"Oh, I could use zome vunderfulness! Maybe I could be ze chosen one!" Exclaimed Vaka.
"First, you gotta be worthy! It's just one big juggling act." Explained Berp.
Berp then swallowed the fruit he juggled and winked at Vaka-Waka. Cut to the Glorp Corp Cousins.
"I think maybe I should be the chosen one, it's in the blood!" Assumed Gurggle.
"Please! I am the essence of worthiness!" Bragged Dribbal.
Dribbal then snorted, causing his snot to fall to the ground. Cut to the Frosticousins.
"No chance here!" Shouted Krog.
Chilbo then laughed nervously while Snoof crossed his fingers in hopes of being the chosen one.
"Pretty, pretty please, choose me, choose me!" Muttered Snoof.
A glow forms around his hands as the Mixamajig key materializes in them, and then a spotlight shown over him.
"Oh worthy one, take this key; never let it out of your sight." The Maximum Mixel puppet told Snoof.
"I'm the chosen one!" Exclaimed Snoof.
Snoof then laughed and stomped his foot happily.
Cut to the Glorp Corp Cousins.
"Hey, come on, why does he get the key?" Questioned Gurggle.
"Yeah, why?" Asked Dribbal.
Cut to the Nixels working the puppet. Suddenly, the puppet began to glitch, making the nixels slightly nervous. Cut to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"Remember, chosen one, the k-k-key will show you the wa-a-ay. That's all for now, toodle-loo!" Reminded the Maximum Mixel puppet, which was beginning to glitch slightly.
The light then glitched out once more and the puppet dissapeared, but then the light now started showing a half-second of a Peg + Cat intro, a full second of a CatDog intro, and then a fight where the Nindjas Max was going up against Corrupted Nurp-Naut, Corrupted Booger, Corrupted Rigby, and Corrupted Mordecai. The Nindjas Max attempted to slice the corrupted cartoons, but when he sliced them, The Darkness came out. However, it was hard to tell what was going on since the fight looked extremely low-res and it kept glitching out.
"What the heck is this now?" Complained Krog.
"Eh, it's probably vat happens if we didn't know about ze Mixamajig." Assumed Vaka.
"..I don't get it. Seriously, if this is the future, how come it's so glitched out?" Questioned Berp.
Before anyone could say anything, the fight suddenly glitched out and turned into an extremely heavily glitched out Adult Swim bumper, only the white text somehow withstood all of the chaotic glitching inside the bumper.

".- ... ... .. -- .. .-.. .- - ." Read the text in the bumper.
A half-second later, the text in the bumper switched to another line of Morse code.
".-.. . - / .. - / - .- -.- . / --- ...- . .-." Read the new text in the bumper.
Another full second later, the text suddenly changed once again.
"- .... . / -.. .- .-. -.- -. . ... ... / .. ... / -.-. --- -- .. -. --. .-.-.-" Read the newer text in the bumper.
The text then glitched out as it switched from "THE DARKNESS IS COMING." to its Morse code variant and back, but then the light completely started to glitch out extremely heavily. Cut to the nixels who were trying to turn off the light projector. One cat-eared nixel was kicking the projector while the cube-eared nixel was looking for a lever on the back of the projector that turned it off. Suddenly, the projector turned off before the cube-eared nixel could find the lever, but then the projector started to ooze out The Darkness, forming a black, glitchy hand that grabbed the cat-eared nixel and threw it onto the ground next to the cube-eared nixel.
Cut back to the mixels who had witnessed the chaos the projector had created.
"Well, that was something." Muttered Waka.
"Vait, vas zat Morse code?" Asked Vaka.
"Well, yeah, but what could it mean?" Replied Dribbal.
"Hm, we could try to decode it, but it's going to take a while." Said Chilbo.
"Yeah, there's that. At least we won't have to do the quest!" Shrugged Krog.
"Aw, come on! If we're gonna get all the wonderful stuff, we got to do the quest!" Reminded Snoof.
"We'll do the quest when we're done decoding, GOT IT!?" Shouted Krog.
"..Okay, fine, but only because it might tell us more about the Mixamajig." Said Snoof.
Meanwhile, the crater started to rumble, and soon it began to fill up with The Darkness.
"Huh?" Said the Mixels.
"Now this is really strange." Said Berp.
The mixels began to back away, but then The Darkness yanked Vaka-Waka into it, and then Dribbal, and then Chilbo. This had caused the mixels to run away, screaming in horror and fear, but then The Darkness suddenly grabbed Snax by the leg and pulled him into itself similar to Burnard's fate. The surviving mixels ran and ran and ran up the hill in an attempt to escape the chaos, but The Darkness never slowed down on its way towards its victims.
"RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!" Shouted Berp.
"GANG WAY EVERYBODY!" Yelled Krog.
Snoof, Slusho, Krog, Berp, and Gurggle ran through the crowd of Munchos, but then The Darkness had caught the attention of said Munchos, and then they ran along with the surviving mixels.
"Hehe, guess I'm in danger!" Lolliclawp nervously remarked.
(A/N: This line is a reference to Ralph Wiggum's famous line from The Simpsons, also known as "Hehe, I'm in danger!".)
Lolliclawp then sat down and fell on his side, accepting his traumating fate, and then The Darkness ate him right up. Meanwhile, due to Snoof's ability of super speed, the other survivors couldn't keep up with the speedy Frosticousin.
"HEY DOOFUS, GO SLOWER SO WE CAN CATCH UP!" Yelled Krog.
Just when the five mixels thought it couldn't get any worse, they were suddenly teleported to a dark forest with a crater inside. They ran through the crater (with Snoof having a watch latch onto his arm in the process) and continued to run. However, it seemed that The Darkness stopped chasing them once they were in the crater, and it even ran backwards into the forest the mixels got themselves into.

"..I'm never going to sleep after that nightmare fuel." Blurted Berp.
"Yeah, I second that." Agreed Snoof as he rubbed his head.
But then Snoof felt something poke his head, almost as if there was something on his right arm. He looked at the right arm, and he saw that on it was a gray watch with a black circle that had an hourglass-shaped green symbol where the clock should be.
*Commercial Break*
At the sight of the strange watch, Snoof simply looked upon its appearance in awe and amazement.
"Hey, what does that watch do?" Asked Berp.
"I don't know, it just jumped onto my arm." Replied Snoof.
Snoof then tapped on the watch, expecting something interesting to happen, but nothing had happen. He twisted the watch, but then silhouettes of different but unrecognizable creatures began to appear in the green part of the watch.
"Cool, this watch.. actually, I don't know what it's doing." Said Snoof.
Snoof then set down the Mixamajig and twisted the watch a few more times to see the different monsters appear in the watch, and the other four mixels began to walk over to him to watch the monsters in the watch, but then he stopped twisting once he saw a four-armed creature appear in the watch.
"Ooh! Hey Berp, this monster kinda looks like you!" Noticed Snoof.
"Does it only show monsters or will it actually DO something, doofus?" Complained Krog.
"I don't know, I've never even seen this thing before." Shrugged Snoof.
Berp grabbed the watch and looked at it closely.
"Hey, not too shabby! It's pretty good." Complimented Berp.
Berp then tapped on the silhouette, but then Snoof began to transform.. into the monster in the watch? He was now red with four arms, four green eyes, a black square on his chin and the top of his head, the watch's symbol on his stomach, a bright blue jacket with white patches of soft and fuzzy cotton on the edges of the hood and the sleeves, black pants, and white shoes with black squares on the top. Snoof looked at his four hands in horror as he realized, he has became something he was not.
"..Snoof, are you okay?" Asked Berp.
In response, Snoof screamed at his own appearance in horror.
"AAAAAAGH!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!?" Screamed Snoof.
(A/N: This is a reference to a scene from Regular Show.)
"C-calm down, you can probably change back." Assured Berp.
"WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH SNOOF!?" Barked Krog.
"As soon as Krog shuts up, that is." Muttered Gurggle.
"Wait, who are you guys?" Asked a random, boyish yet young voice.
When each of the mixels looked towards where the voice came from, they saw a young boy with brown hair, green eyes, a black shirt paired with a white button-up cardigan, white spike shoes with the bottom of them being black, and baggy pants in a very dark shade of green. Slusho and Gurggle looked at the boy, and then back to each other, and then back at the boy.
"Well, che palle! First there's no explanation as to why Snoof got the key, and then we're-a suddenly stranded in some dark forest, but now there's an alieno standing right-a here! We're clearly set up for trouble." Complained Gurggle.
"Wait, I'm not an alien." Corrected the boy.
"No, no, he's got a point. We did just crash-land onto his tribeland-.. wait, but we didn't have a ufo, and.. okay, I think I'm getting myself into a loophole." Replied Berp.
"Well, if you're not an alien, then who are you?" Questioned Krog.
"Uh.. I'm Ben Tennyson, and I'm a human." Introduced the boy.
"Oh, that's cool! I'm Snoof that's Krog, and.. wait, you didn't introduce me to you guys, didn't you?" Replied Snoof.
"Well, not really now that I think about it." Said Slusho.
*Commercial Break*
Cut to a bird's-eye shot of the six cartoons in the crater.
"So, why did you come here?" Asked Ben.
"We weren't even trying to." Corrected Krog.
"Yeah, we were escaping from this weird slime that ate our tribemates." Replied Slusho.
Cut to Snoof, who is still a four-armed alien.
"And I found this weird watch but then it transformed me into some red.. alien? I mean, I think it's an alien, I guess." Chimed Snoof.
Cut to Ben's cousin, Gwen, and Max, their grandfather making s'mores around a campfire. Gwen was still feeling hatred for Ben while Max was feeling very calm and happy. However, since Ben went into the woods, he hasn't really come back, and Max was starting to get a bit worried, so he decided that he would come unto the woods.
"Hey Gwen, I'm gonna check to see if Ben's okay. Either stay here or stay in the van, I don't want to lose you." Reminded Max.
"Alright, cool." Said Gwen.
So then Max went into the woods, using the same path Ben walked on. Cut back to Ben and the five mixels.
"Alright, so I'm Slusho and this is Gurggle, Snoof, and Krog." Introduced Slusho.
"And I'm Berp!" Chimed Berp.
"How come you didn't introduce Berp?" Ben asked Slusho.
"Well, I didn't know his name is all." Shrugged Slusho.
"Ben! Where are you?" Called Max from afar.
"Schnixel, it's another alieno! SCATTER!" Shouted Gurggle.
So then the mixels attempted to hide themselves from the 'other alien'. Berp tried to hide himself under the dirt and rocks from the crater, Slusho hid in the leaves of the two trees that Krog hid behind, and Gurggle hid behind Krog. Meanwhile, Snoof stood still, knowing that if Ben can be friendly, so can the other alien.
"Snoof, get hiding before you get abducted!" Barked Krog.
"But what if the other alien's friendly like Ben?" Asked Snoof.
Suddenly, the watch's symbol on Snoof's chest began to flicker white and red, and then Snoof started to transform back into himself.
"..Woah, how did you do that?" Blurted Berp, distracted from putting dirt and rocks in himself.
"Do what?" Asked Snoof.
But then Snoof covered his mouth as he realized that no longer did he sound low and gruff, he sounded high and sparky, like he normally would. Snoof then gasped in shock, as he realized.. he was himself again!
"I'm back to normal! I'M MYSELF AGAIN!" Exclaimed Snoof.
Snoof then used his ice boosters and raced around the sides of the crater in excitement.
"HI-DIDDLE-DEE-DOO!" Shouted Snoof.
"SNOOF! STOP SLIDING AND START HIDING!" Shouted Krog.
Gurggle suddenly shushed Krog as he saw that Max was coming closer to Ben, which meant that if the mixels didn't want to be noticed, they would have to stay quiet. Max was walking around the woods, looking for Ben. But then he heard some strange voice cheering out for some reason.
"Ben? Is that you cheering over there?" Called Max.
As soon as he realized his grandfather was coming near, Ben tried to tell Snoof to be quiet, but Snoof couldn't hear him over his own cheers. Ben looked behind himself to see that his grandfather was getting closer so he just decided to wing it and run towards his grandfather.
"Hi, grandpa!" Greeted Ben with a somewhat exaggerated smile.
This sudden move had made Max jump back and yelp.
"Ben, please don't sneak up on my like that." Max told Ben.
"Sorry. Then again, what were you doing here? It looks like you've been here a while." Asked Max.
"Well, I met these weird aliens and one of them had some weird key, and then Snoof suddenly started to slide around the crater." Explained Ben.
It was at that moment when Snoof stopped hollering and stopped sliding around the crater to eavesdrop onto the conversation.

When he gets the opportunity to change all of that, he takes it with both hands. This is a slow burning progression fantasy. Please expect at least two chapters per week.

We're currently doing a lot more of "trying to survive" than rock picking around here! Caelum-Yeah, that is pretty misleading." Ok, screw this, I am out, if nobody read this story it will be your fault. "Zarco-The hell are you talking about, you're the one who wrote this...
