Since then many Diggers have given up their profession due to how much more dangerous and numerous Reaverbots have become. Others have become criminals and Sky Pirates, growing sick of the increasing cost of Digging Licenses and the worthless systems put in place out of fear to restrict Digging. Despite all that the Diggers still continue to capture the imagination of many young boys and girls, including you.

You are a young man living on a small island in this vast, endless, watery world. This island is called Eden Island for its beauty and fertile land. It is home to farmers, fishermen, and people of the land, those who grow food, raise cattle, and make a living by providing the necessaries of life to those on other islands. Sadly you are not happy in Eden.

You have the spirit of an adventurer and a burning curiosity to see the world and all its wonders. It didn’t help that you grew up hearing tales spun by passing travelers and listening to adventurous Radio Programs, both serving to burrow the urge to have a dangerous and adventurous life deep inside your soul.

Your 18th birthday is almost here and your desire to leave Eden is stronger than ever. Where will you go? What will you do? What kind of person will you be? All those questions and the desire to find burns inside of you like a white hot flame. Now it’s time to find out!

Your eyes bolt open and you glance around the room, immediately regretting it as the light shining through your window practically blinds you. After a few moments of haziness your vision clears and you realize in disappointment you’re still in your bedroom on Eden Island. You’d hope one of these day’s you’d wake up and realize this was all one big flashback or dream and that you’re really a successful Digger looking back on his childhood.

Before you can wallow in your disappointment you hear the voice of your father shout up the stairs.

“Bass? Bass are you awake?”

“Yeah Dad I just woke up.”

You really wished your mother had been around to talk your father out of naming you after a fish, but disappearing shortly after you were born probably made your Dad stupid with grief.

“I’m going out on the sea early today with a couple of rookies to show them the ropes of being a fisherman. Are you sure you don’t want to come?”

“Not today Dad I said I’d help Mr. Beermat at the pub today”

You resist the urge to tell your father that you don’t want to be a fisherman as you lie through your teeth since you just have to pick up your measly wages.

“Alright, I won’t be back till very late, so I won’t hold it against you if you eat dinner before I get back.”

You hear your father leave and sit in silence for a moment mulling over your thoughts. Today is important and you feel you should get something done today. But it’s only 6:30 in the morning; you still have some time to do what you wish.

So Bass, what will you do?

>[A] I should go down and make some breakfast, maybe something good is on the radio.
>[B] I should really review my ‘grand plan’ for becoming a Digger…
>[C] I should just go back to sleep.

>>28657290
> [A] I should go down and make some breakfast, maybe something good is on the radio.
Can't review the Grand Plan on an empty stomach.

>>28657290
>[B] I should really review my ‘grand plan’ for becoming a Digger…

>[A] I should go down and make some breakfast, maybe something good is on the radio.

>>28657290
Dad is going missing, calling it now

>[A] I should go down and make some breakfast, maybe something good is on the radio.

Dad goes missing, and we have to save him from the grips of reaverbots/pirates/sea monsters/no, he was just late, why are you so upset.

>>28657439
Or we end up responsible for whatever horrible happens next.

>>28657341
>>28657389
>>28657439

Your mind immediately goes to your Grand Plan, but the rumbling in your stomach quickly gets the better of you. Getting of of bed you go to your dresser and change out of your pajamas. Your room is small but well furnished thanks to the antiques your father inherited from his family. A dresser, a nightstand, a nice bed frame, and a fancy chest that still holds most of your toys from when you were a kid as well as your valuables.

Throwing on a black t-shirt, some patched up jeans, and some knitted socks you head downstairs. The kitchen is probably the most modern room in your house since your Dad finally had to get a electric refrigerator after the gas one crapped out. It's got a single electric light, a gas stove, and some outlets you've probably only ever used for the electric radio you got for your birthday.

The radio in the living room runs off a small Refractor and is where a TV would be in a regular households. Sadly your island doesn't have a TV station and your not anywhere close enough to pick up anyone elses broadcasts.

Still, the programs you have on your radiostation are nice. Turning on radio you listen to a little jazz as you open the fridge and peer inside.

There's plenty of fish to eat, but your sick of fish and grab some eggs instead. After frying them up and wolfing them down you listen to the news for a little while.

"Reports coming in from the Carrot Isles and the loss of communications from Colli Island suggest at the Red Skull Pirates are pushing further into the farming islands. Police and Militia members are on high alert but many authorities show some confusion as to the pirates sudden interest in a rather poor region. More news later."

>>28657521
Welllp. HERE WE GO.

Oh no. Pirates gon kill momma and poppa

>>28657521
With food in your belly and the realization nothing good is on the radio at this time of day you decide to go over your Grand Plan for becoming a Digger.

>Step one, get a weapon.
>Step two, get money.
>Step three, get a ship.
>Step four, begin exploring ruins and making a name for yourself.

Not the most detailed of plans, but you have the first part figured out.

Mr. Beermat has been having you clean out the cellar for a while now and while you were down there you found an old Buster Gun. It was probably left over from the previous owners since Mr. Beermat isn't very fond of Diggers and doesn't look like the type to have been one. You don't know much about mechanics or electronics so you haven't been able to give it a proper look over, however you've fired off a couple shots in private and it seems to be functioning despite it's age.

Now the mony part is still an issue. At the moment you don't have a lot. All you have is the necklace your mother left you and 150 Zenny you saved up. You would have saved up more but since you'd been having to pitch in to pay the bills around here and Mr. Beermat doesn't pay you much this is the best you could do, but considering the hours you work it's pretty generous of him.Once you get your wages today you'll have 175 Zenny.

You need at least 1000 Zenny to purchase a ticket to Mull Island which is notorious for the many, many ship wrecks located on and around it as well as the many complex and twisting ruins there. If you can get to Mull Island you'll be able to raise the money to restore, buy, or maybe even build a ship by exploring the ruins for treasure.

However you still need 825Ƶ to get a ticket. Now stowing away crossed your mind, but last you heard they've been shooting stowaways or throwing them overboard. You need a way to make a lot of money fast. There are the ruins near the volcano, but you don't have a Digger's license and even if you did they've been sealed since the Week of Ruin

(Cont)

>>28657675
Still, those ruins are your best bet to get the money you need to get where you need to go and maybe even get started as a Digger.

So what do you want to do Bass?

>[A] "Onward to adventure! Let us explore these ruins for treasure in secret."
>[B] Other (Write int)

>>28657699
> [A] "Onward to adventure! Let us explore these ruins for treasure in secret."
What do we have with us, besides the buster gun? Do we have some adventuring gear?

>>28657699
>>[A] "Onward to adventure! Let us explore these ruins for treasure in secret."

There's even a choice? Here's to doing stupid, stupid things with the best of intentions! (Our own profit!)

>>28657699
Wait, are we still during the week of ruin?

If we enter the ruins during that week, we may suffer the death penalty.

>>28657699
>>[B] At least tell Mr. Beermat you won't be in today if you're going to do that instead of work. The man deserves that much for putting up with your ass.

>>28657767
No way. Your desperate to get of the island, but not that desperate. The Week of Ruin isn't for another couple of months.

>>28657725
You don't have a whole lot of gear besides the Buster Gun, but you've gathered what you could find or buy on the cheap.

Up in your room you have:
>A backpack capable of holding a good 40 pounds of goods.
>50 Feet of rope. Somewhat new and pretty strong, found on an abandon dock peer.
>A battery operated head light with elastic straps. It's somewhat cheap, but it'll light the way for you pretty well
>A folding shovel and a pick
>A couple of home made torches, a lighter, and single magnesium flare you picked up somewhere.

It's not a lot, but it's better then nothing.

>>28657736
Your not thrilled about going into a sealed off ruin where goodness knows what is waiting for you, but there's no other way to make enough money to leave. Sure you could wait and save your money, but Mr. Beermat is having financial issues and is probably going to lay you off. If you wait too long your father will rope you into becoming a fisherman and you'll never leave the island...

>>28657786
You aren't working today, but you are supposed to pick up your wages for the work you did this week. You should probably do that first.

>>28657807
Let pick up our wage, deposit it at home and then go into the ruins.

>>28657834
Sounds like a fair plan.

>>28657807
Depending on how secretive we want to be with this, perhaps mention you're going on a long hike near the volcano today. That way if the unfortunate happens, you or your body could be found. Eventually.

>>28657834
Seconding. Let's get our pay, gather our gear, and go to the ruins.

>>28657834
Deciding to pick up your wages you lock up and head into town. It's a ten minute walk from your house to the edge of town, but your used to it so you make it in 5 with a good running pace.

You pass by the bakery, the police station, Al's General Store, and finally reach the "On the Rocks" Pub run by Mr. Beermat. Entering in the back you go into the main bar and find Mr. Beermat taking down stools.

Mr. Beermat is a chubby, but rather happy looking fellow. The best way you could describe him is like Santa minus the beard. Now that you think about it he actually dressed up once or twice as Santa for the holidays.

He looks up at you and smiles. "Hello Bass, how are you this morning? I'm afraid you don't work today..."

"Oh I know Mr. Beermat I'm just here to pick up my wages..."

"Oh I almost forgot..." He leaves and goes into the backroom, coming out with the 25Ƶ he owes you.

You gratefully take the money and turn to leave, but Mr. Beermat speaks up.

"Um, Bass? I need to talk with you for a minute." The jolly looking man takes a seat at the bar, a frown on his face.

"Now you know that I've always appreciated your help around here. You haven't always been the most diligent of workers, but you have a drive a lot of the fellows around here lack..."

You can already tell Mr. Beermat has to lay you off. What should you do?

>[A] Make things easier for this nice man, interrupt him and apologize saying you're quitting to work with your father
>[B] Let the man break the news himself.
>[C] Other (write in).

>>28657986
>>[A] Make things easier for this nice man, interrupt him and apologize saying you're quitting to work with your father

>>28657986
> [A] Make things easier for this nice man, interrupt him and apologize saying you're quitting to work with your father

>>28657986
>>[B] Let the man break the unfortunate news.
Interrupting's rude.

>>28657986
>>[B] Let the man break the news himself.
Besides, we don't know if he is going to lay us off.

>>28657986
>>[B] Let the man break the news himself.

Well, as much as I'd like to hope he's not actually going to lay us off, it's best to let him get it out on his own. Because we're totally fired.

You decide to let Mr. Beermat break the news himself. Maybe he's not laying you off maybe he's-

"...and that's why it pains me to have to let you go."

Laying you off.

"Oh..." You say with a frown, scratching the back of your head awkwardly.

"I apologize if this ruins your day, but I just can't afford to hire anyone here. Everyone around here is suffering money wise. Maybe I'll be able to hire you back on in a year or three, but at the moment I need all the money I can get just to put money on the table. I'm sure you understand." Mr. Beermat looks rather upset as he says this and you try to hide your disappointment to make him feel a bit better.

"It's alright Mr. Beermat. I'm just glad you kept me on as long as you did. If you ever need any help around here, just ask, I don't mind helping a friend for free." You put on a smile and pat the man on the shoulder, hoping that it'll make him feel better.

"I'll see you around Mr. Beermat, thanks for everything." You give a small wave before exiting the pub, walking a half way back home before letting out a sad sigh. Great, now you don't have any choice but to go into the ruin. Staying here your whole life isn't an option.

Going home you stow your money away in your chest along with the necklace your mother left you before she disappeared. You dig out your gear and get it ready for your journey into the ruins.

It's currently 6:50 AM.

You don't have anyone you can talk too. Everyone older then you will probably call the cops on you or outright stop you themselves. And everyone your age...well let's just say you don't have any real friends on the island.

The golden rule of Digging is to always work with someone else. However technically you aren't a Digger yet, so you think you can break this rule this one time. Besides you'll be working during the day, if the late night horror Radio Programs have taught you anything it's that bad stuff happens during the night.

Still, you write up a note and put it on the fridge in case you go missing and anyone comes looking for you. With your gear in your pack you head out the door and begin making your way towards the ruins. It's quite a walk, a good hour and a half going the long way through the grape orchard.

You try to think of all the cool things you might find and not the fact you'll soon be going into the ruins at the base of a dead volcano.

Soon you arrive at the entrance to the ruins. It's built into the side of the volcano and appears almost temple like, with a stone like construction and large pillars holding up the stone and dirt above it. However upon closer examination the stone isn't stone at all, but some kind of metal with odd lines and symbols that run down their entirety and mark every inch of the floor and ceiling.

No monolithic door stands in between you and the entrance thankfully, just some rotted boards thrown up to keep people out that have all long since fallen to the ground and collected into a messy pile at the front of the door. You take a deep breath and reach into your bag, pulling out the grey metal Buster Gun, fitting it over your right arm as you make your way into the ruins...

You walk down a long narrow hallway for quite a bit, the sunlight from the entrance lighting your way till you reach a kind of cross section. Lighting up a torch you discover that the hallway splits up into three directions, forward, left, and right. You don't see any signs or unusual marks, but you do notice a size difference between the three paths.

The path straight ahead of you is a lot bigger then the entrance, with a high ceiling and more space between the walls.

The path to your right seems a bit bigger then the entrance hallway, but not by much. You could easily have two lanes of people move up and down the path without a problem.

The path to your left seems to match the entrance hallway, small and narrow with enough room for one person to walk comfortably down it.

So, where do you want to go? Left, Right, or Straight ahead?
>[A] Straight
>[B] Left
>[C] Right
>[D] Picking a random direction won't do anything. Try looking for anything else that's different about the hallways
>[E] Write in

>>28658689
>>[D] Examine further.
Long as we have the time, let's see what else there is.

>>28658689
> [A] Straight
It's probably something important down there.

>>28658689
>>[B] Left
Let's not go into hallways that can support larger enemies. Any reaverbot is dangerous, but let's try and stick with as little danger as possible.

>>28658798
Fair enough, lets go left.

>>28658689
Left is the safe choice.

>>28658798
>>28658859
>>28658873
You could look around and see if there are any clues or distinctions between the hallways but you decide to pick the left one because it seems the safest. It's smaller so that means larger Reaverbots can't get to you. Immediately you find it's very dust and filled with cobwebs you are quick to burn for fear of having to deal with poisonous spiders.

Walking along you begin to think about all the dust and cobwebs, wading through the darkness with your torch in hand. "Well, there's a lot of dust and cobwebs. That probably means nothing has been down here in a while, including diggers. So ether something really good is down here waiting to be found by me or..." You pause as you hear a grinding noise behind you. It's quite and faint, but it's quickly growing louder and louder.

Turning around in the narrow hallway you put your torch forward and see the light reflecting off of something in the dark, your eyes widening in horror as you see a spiked wall rushing towards you from out of the darkness, it's razor sharp spikes glistening in your torch light.

"It's filled with fucking traps!" you shout, turning and sprinting forward as adrenaline rushes through your system. You run and run as the spiked wall blazes down the hallway after you as if eager to skewer you on it'd deadly spikes.

>>28659013
You for quite a distance, sweat pouring down your face and your heart thundering in your chest, your breath hot and smelling of fear as the grinding of the spiked wall chasing you grows every louder in your ear.

You watch and search for some kind of turn off or way to escape, but you realize your trapped in the hallway. You're about to lose hope when you see some kind of drop off in front of you. Immediately upon reaching the edge you leap into the darkness, letting your torch drop from your hand as you get ready to land or cling to something to catch yourself.

The air is almost knocked out of you as you smash into a edge of some kind, grasping it with your free left hand as. You hang there for a moment, gasping and catching your breath before looking back and seeing the spiked wall filling up the small hallway you were previously trapped in. You notice some kind of small red gem like eye in the center of the wall that seems to be...looking at you. The wall immediately begins to slide back into the dark, the red eye staring up until the wall disappears out of your sight.

Looking below you see your torch about 20 feet down, illuminated a metal floor lined with, surprise, razor sharp spikes. Throwing your buster gun onto the ledge, you pull yourself up and lie on your back, catch your breath and resting for a moment.

"OK, mental note. Smaller does not always mean safer. After a few minutes of rest you pull your Buster Gun back on and light up another torch.

You are now on the other side of the bit. The narrow hallway behind you is out of your reach, unless you want to jump over the spike filled pit to give the spiked wall a bit hug of course.

You can go left, or right. To your left you can see that the hallway has many smaller turn offs while the right hallway just goes straight forward. The left seems like there might be something hidden in one of the turn offs, at least you think so, but you have been wrong before...

What do you wish to do?

>>28659268
Go left and check for traps this time

>>28659268
Go left and beware of traps. If you have some rocks or anything nearby, throw them at anything suspicious. Also, pick some rocks or sticks just in case you need them to disable any more traps.

>>28659321
Look good.

>>28659268
Left forever.

You decide to go left, this time being more wary of traps. You check the ceiling for any spike walls that might be waiting to drop down and throw your shovel at anything unusual. After feeling that it was safe to look around you begin exploring the turn offs.

The hallway itself comes to a dead end and most of the turn offs offer nothing but dead ends. However entering the last turn off, you see a large orange chest! Approaching it eagerly you stop, remembering your incident. Taking at your shovel you back up and throw it at the chest. It smacks against it with a metal THWACK and bounces back at you, landing at your feet.

Feeling it's safe you walk up to it, flip open the lid and find...money! You're somewhat surprised but you actually find some money, 800 Zenny! It's old but it should still be good. Putting it into your pack you find a note amongst the money.

It's yellow and aged, but you can still make out what's written on it.

>"Yo Stef, leaving my cash in this empty chest, don't want to drop it down that hole I nearly landed in. Don't take it!"

>~M.Man

That means you're only 25 short of getting a ticket! All you need to do is explore a little more and you'll be in the clear!

(Cont)

Once we start our career proper, we have a long way to go, because we eventually have to prove we are the strongest!

>>28659517
Going down the right hallway you follow it and make another right, giddy with excitement at finding some money, but at the same time being wary of traps. You eventually come to a large, round, well lit room. The ceiling seems to glow an almost organic blue, giving off a faint, but revealing light.

Before you can marvel at the room for too long you see armed men come out from out of the corners of your eyes, encircling you, weapons raised, and faces that don't make them seem all that friendly.

One man out of the group raises his hand and waves the others down, smiling in amusement. He stands around 6,1 with grey hair, a handlebar mustache, and a red arm that is obviously mechanical.

"Calm down boys it's just a kid. Unless the Raverbots have gotten craftier since the last time we were here." The man smiles at you, eyes running up and down you.

"You are you?" You ask.

"Metal. Metalman Jackson and you?"

"Bass." You state.

"I prefer to work in both first and last names son. What's yours?"

Well Bass, what is your last name?

"Nice strong name. Alright boy let me be straight with you. We're not supposed to be here and from what I can see, neither are you. So I'll tell you what, instead of us getting into a fight, or risking messing one another up how about we help one another?" Metalman smiles, but it doesn't make you feel any more comfortable.

"I need another man and you obviously need the money. So I'll tell you what. You join up with me, and I'll pay you 1000 Zenny right now, 9000 when we're finished." Metalman asks, adjusting his belt which has a very, very large revolver holstered on it.

"What's the job? I'm interested so I'm probably game, but I'd like to know what I'm getting into." You state, trying not to look at large gun on Metalman's hip.

"Well that depends on a few things. I'm a few men short due to a little tangle a few days ago. I assure you if it was something suicidal I probably would have brought some expendable sap along with me. Tell me, what do you find is your greatest strength?" Metalman asks.

"My Willpower." You state, deciding to be honest. You might not think things through all the way, but once you put your mind to something you sure as will see it finished.

"A strong will is important in a man, but will means nothing if it's not supported by something. What would you say is your second stronger aspect?" Metalman asks.

>>28660363
"My Bravery. I mean I managed to outrun a wall of spikes without shitting myself in terror I think that warrants some semblance of bravery." You state.

"Strong willed and brave. Alright, you'll be my wingman. I'm paying you to stand by my side and make sure nothing happens to me. If I get knocked out or injured and can't get myself out of the way, you'll get me to safety. If you happen to be lying about your will and bravery, I assure you my men will shoot you in the back if you turn tale and run. Am I clear?"

"Crystal clear." You say with a nod.

"Good. Now follow me and stay close, I'm not paying you to run off." Metalman reaches into his coat and hands you a pouch of Zenny, which you quickly stow away.

Metalman and his men begin moving, you stick close to Metalman as they walk out of the large room and head deeper and deeper into ruins.

Do you wish to try and ask Metalman anything Bass

"Wait, we're heading deeper into the ruins?" You ask, looking around nervously as you make sure your Buster Gun is ready to fire.

"Of course, I'm not paying you to walk me out kid." Metalman says with a laugh.

"So, what are we looking for in here?"

"To be honest I don't know exactly."

"That's comforting." You say with a grimace.

"It's a key of some kind. It's important I know that much." Metalman replies.

"How do you know it's important?"

"Because the Red Skulls killed most of my men and sank three of my ships because they were convinced I had it." Metalaman replies.

"The Red Skulls?!" You ask, eyes widening.

"Yep. I've had scrapes with them before, but it was over small stuff, minor finds, territory disputes, the usual stuff Diggers and Pirates get into pissing matches about. I thought I was on good terms with them up till a few days ago. Now I'm out to make sure they don't get whatever they're raging around to find, because whatever the Red Skulls want, just about everyone probably wants."

You, Metalman, and his lackies push deeper into the ruins. Metalman seems to know where he's going, or at least has a good sense for danger since you don't run into anything dangerous for the 10 minutes you're walking.

>>28660844
"So what can we expect to face?" You ask, keeping an eye on the ceilings and floors for anymore of those spiked walls.

"Reaverbots and traps. The thing about Reaverbots is that they tend to be different from place to place. Sometimes they are the same, other times they're totally different. However there tend to be a few that tend to be just about everywhere..." Just as Metalman says that, something dashes around the corner, and just about everyone's guns raise up to fire.

You raise your buster gun, take aim, fire and...

A buster gun is a small scale energy weapon. You don't really know the science or mechanics behind it, but from what you've heard it uses a small refractor to charge up and launch balls of energy. Depending on how the Buster Gun is set up, what refractor it uses, and what parts it has equipped it's strength, speed of fire, penetration, range, and much more can be changed.

It's a popular, but rare weapon that you're very lucky to have found.

You fire several shots in rapid succession. Despite your inexperience with any kind of firearm they fly true and strike the Reaverbot's eye and head, sending it falling on it's back as the other men's machine-gun fire pepper and pierce it's armored body.

The Reaverbot is soon turned into a smoking, eyeless husk.

"You're a good shot for someone who doesn't know what they're doing." Metalman says as you and him walk over to the Reaverbot corpse.

"This little thing is called a Zakobon. It's also known as a Shit-Kicker by some of the more colorful Diggers. These things might not seem like much, but they drop explosives out of their rear end and kick them at you. They're about the size of a baseball and can easily blow a limb off if you're not careful." Metalman raises and flexes his red robotic hand to emphasis the power of the Zakobon's explosives.

Taking note of how dangerous the small Zakobon can be, you continue on with Metalman, pressing ever deeper into the ruins. Time passes oddly and you aren't sure how much time has passed since you began walking with the criminal diggers.

Before you know it you are standing before a large, menacing looking door with the same red eye that the spiked wall had. Metalman stands next to you starting at the door.

"It's in here." Metalman states.

"How can you be so sure?" You ask.

"Once you gain some experience you'll gain a sort of sense for these things." Metalman states with an amused grin.

"So how are we going to open this?" You look over the door, not seeking any kind of key, or switch, or seam to wedge open.

"Well how do you think we're going to open this?" Metalman asks.

Well Bass? Want to take a guess?

"Uh, take out the eye?" You ask, trying to avoid staring at it.

"Good guess, but no."

"Knock?"

"Tried it once or twice, usually what answers isn't very nice."

"Use the key?"

"Normally, yes. See normally you're supposed to find the proper way to open things, find the key, find a switch, and only force the door as a last resort." Metalman explains.

"So we're going to force the door?" You ask.

"Fuck no, we're going to blow the door we don't have time for that shit. If I can get what the Red Skulls want then that's great, if I end up destroying it, then that just means I can spite the Red Skulls for trying to kill me and everything I've worked towards." Metalman walks back while one of his men begin to wire the door.

You go around the corner with Metalman and a few moments later his man comes back around with a roll of wire with a detonator at the end.

"How much did you use Bomb?" Metalman demands.

"The normal amount..." The man named 'Bomb' replies.

"You did measure it out right?" Metalman asks.

"Oh fuck it, I used it all!" Bomb exclaims before pushing the trigger.

You manage to get your hands to your ears before the explosives go off. Your whole body shakes as dust and bits of metal are thrown from around the corner. As soon as the dust settles and you bring your hands down from your ears, you look to Metalman who's glaring at 'Bomb'.

"Next time you do that I'm leaving you on the ship." Metalman threatens.

"But the ship is at the bottom of the sea..."

"Exactly" Metalman walks forward, ushering Bomb the back as you, him, and the others walk into the previously inexpressible room.

(Cont)

>>28662381
well, guess everyone knows where Bass is now.

>>28662381
The room you enter is almost otherworldly. It's a round room with almost crystalline walls, odd lines of glowing light seem to pulse through the floor, walls, and ceiling as if energy is flowing through the entire room and the air itself.

At the center of the room is a massive crystal, perfectly cut, and of the deepest of purple you've ever seen. It's about 12 feet in length from the floor to about half-way to the ceiling. The crystal is slowly spinning like a top in slow motion and as it does it seems to be emitting light and something else you can feel, but can't describe.

This is the first time you've ever seen a Refractor.

"Holy shit." Metalman states, looking up at the Refractor in awe.

"Is that a Refractor?" You ask.

"If that's not a Refractor ether I'm dead or we're all tripping balls at the moment." Metalman grins and looks around the room, as if wondering how the hell he's going to get the Giant Refractor out.

As he does that, you take a look at the Refractor more closely. It's almost perfect, but there's something odd about it. There's a dark, blob in the middle and as you get closer you realize it's not a smudge or blemish in the crystal but rather there's something inside of it. You can't see clearly and the fact the Crystal is spinning doesn't help, but you can see it's vaguely human shaped...

>>28662739
>>28662740
"Uh, Metalman? I think there might be something inside the Refractor." You say, getting Metalman's attention.

You point it out to him and he frowns. "Well shit, I was hoping the Red Skulls were just being greedy assholes. I smell something fucked up. Regardless I'm not letting them have this. Quick, call back to Flash on the ship, tell him to rev up the drill and get ready to haul up something big."

'Quick' pulls out a large radio and begins to fiddle with it.

As he does that you turn to Metalman. "Listen, I appreciate you not killing me. This has been a real learning experience but I'd really like the money you promised me. That explosion probably caught the attention of everyone in town and I prefer not to become a criminal or a pirate just yet."

Metalman pauses but nods.

"Alright, you've been a good kid. I'll-"

"Metal!" Quick yells, fear on his face.

"What is it?"

"Flash isn't responding."

"Well try again!" Metal demands.

"I did and I got this." Quick unplugs the headphones of the radio and something comes out that chills you to you core.

>"They're probably in the ruins, I doubt we got them while they were on the ship. Ignore the town we're after the Key, not fucking cabbage and fish. Rev up the drills boys, we're going digging!"

Suddenly vibrations begin to flow through the room like a tiny earthquake. The vibrations begin to grow stronger and stronger with every moment as the Red Skulls begin to drill down into the ruins.

"Fucking damn it. Bomb! Do you have any explosives left?" Metal asks as he yanks of the hand of his mechanical arm, deploying a large grey buzzsaw in it's place.

"Uh, I have some firecrackers, a cherry bomb, and some of those black snake things." Bomb says as he dumps out his beg.

"What are we going to do boss?" Quick asks, looking towards the ceiling.

"We're not letting them get this. I don't care what they're bringing down. Anyone got any bright ideas?"

Break open the refractor and get the black thing. At least that should be big enough to carry.

Red Skulls sound like bad news, and we'll never know if they decide to attack the town.

Can a refractor be used to make an explosive trap?

>>28663065
>[A] Decide to stick it out with Metalman and his boys. This is how you make a name for yourself!

Judging from their behavior, they'll probably destroy the town for shits and giggles after they get the refractor anyways.

>>28663151
Refractors are hard as hell, it takes tremendous physical force to shatter one, that's probably why they're easy to salvage after shooting or blowing up Reaverbots. They're not explosive to your knowledge.

"Shoot anything that comes through the ceiling?" You suggest.

"You're not going to run kid? I wouldn't blame you if you ran now." Metalman says as he looks up a the ceiling.

"This is how you make a name for yourself! Besides I'm too stupid to get another opportunity like this!" You shout, the shaking growing even more intense.

You look at the crystal, wondering about the black thing inside. Is it a person or something else? Regardless you can't allow pirates to get a hold of it. And seeing as how you probably won't be able to destroy it in time, you might as well try to stop the pirates from getting it.

As Metal's men ready their weapons the ceiling begins to crack and eventually it caves in, sending dirt, stone and a lot of other stuff crashing down on top of you and everyone else.

You manage to avoid getting buried under several tons of rock, but the dirt practically blinds you, getting into your shoes, your clothes and every open hole available to it. By the time you've gotten it out of your eyes you see a massive hole in the ceiling and a giant claw arm latched to the crystal, slowly pulling it up towards what you can only assume is one of the Red Skull's pirate ships.

Metalman and his men have already scared up the arm and are firing up at the ship and the many men surrounding the hole. They're being dragged up towards the ship while you're left down in the hole.

Before you can make a move to grab the claw and join the fun, something huge topples into the hole and crashes right in front of you, throwing up more stinking dirt. By the time it clears an eight foot tall robot with drills for arms stands in front of you.

A quick glance around and you realize your alone against this thing with no way to escape due to the entrance to the chamber being buried under several tons of rock.

Your going to have to fight this thing, but how?

You blast away at the Robot's back as it slowly turns to face you. Once again you manage to blast away the covering of the tube, exposing very vulnerable and important wires. Another shot at the front or the back tubes will destroy those wires nice and good.

Before you can line up another shot, the metal plates covering the pods above the robots shoulders fold up. For a moment you're afraid it's going to start firing missiles at you, but you're relieved when it's only a giant pair of flood ligh-

Your head spins, your vision blurs, and you feel like you're going to throw up your own spleen. However you grit your teeth and pull yourself to your feet, slipping your Buster Gun back over your right hand as you stagger towards the Robot, firing into it as it charges at you, drills spinning.

"I. Refuse. To. Be. A. Fucking. FISHERMAN!" You shout as blast away at the Robot, only to be slammed back against the wall. For a moment you think it's all over when you see the drills spinning out of the corners of your eyes, however you soon see that they're winding down and they soon come to a stop.

You look up and see the robot's eyes go dark, the power cables running from it's mouth turned to nothing but patches of molten rubber and copper. The robot falls back and collapses on it's back, allowing you to put your foot up on it and raise your Buster Gun into the air, head spinning from ether the excitement or a concussion.

"WHO'S THE STRONGEST DIGGER OF THEM ALL?" You shout at the top of your lungs, looking up to see the Red Skull's ship dropping like a stone, Refractor and all, right down on top of you.

There's a tremendous crash, the sound of something shattering, and then everything goes dark...

You wake up, eyes bolting open and for once you find you're not in your room on Eden Island. Sadly you aren't in a Captain's Quarters, or any kind of quarters at all. You're hanging from your wrists by a chain in a dimly lit, cold, and rather fowl smelling room. The floor is red with blood, but due to the sides of beef and the pigs hanging from the ceiling around you, you're not sure if the blood is from them...or someone else.

Thinking doesn't come easily since your head is throbbing, but you can still remember most of what happened up till the Red Skull's ship crashed. You scrapped that Robot and while you didn't see any of the fighting, you assumed Metalman and his gang were the ones who crashed the ship. However unless Metalman has a fucked up sense of humor or medical treatment, you don't think they got ahold of you...

As you wonder what's going on, the door opens and a man steps inside before slamming the door behind him. As he comes closer you can see he's dressed in a black rubber suit and is wearing a pair of yellow tinted goggles. Before you can laugh at the man you see he's holding to electrodes connected to a battery on his hip...

You say nothing as the man enters the room and begins to stick the electrodes together, the two sticks repelling one another and throwing off nasty sparks indicating they are pretty high voltage. The two of you just stand there (or in your case hang) for quite a while until the man lunges forward and stick you with one of the electrodes, giving you a horrific electric jolt.

"Who are you?" He demands as he sticks you again, getting a scream out of you as the electricity shoots through your body.

You grit your teeth and stay silent, only for him to stick you again, and again, and again asking "Who are you?" over and over again. Eventually you just have to say something.

"Alright, alright I'll tell you who I am!" You gasp, the man pausing to wait for your answer.

"I'm chicken, these are my friends, pork, and beef. I think you've already met them." You gesture with your head to the side of beer and pork to your right and can't help but laugh, you've been waiting to do that since he ask you your name. The guy with the electrodes doesn't find it very funny though and sticks the electrodes in your chest, holding them and letting the current flow through your body, causing you to writhe in pain...

well, technically, the 1 shouldn't count since it doesn't have the modifiers.

This 1, however, does.

>>28665911
It doesn't have the modifier. Does it still count?

As the electricity flows through your body, you feel an horrific amount of pain but manage to play it off as nothing by continuing to laugh at your shitty pun. You're not sure if it's your muscles reacting to the electricity or you've managed to learn how to laugh int he face of death, regardless the guy electrocuting you immediately stops.

You can't see his face because of the suit and glasses but you can tell he's pretty freaked out by this. He sticks you again but you manage to continue to laugh. It hurts more then anything you've ever felt in your whole life, and you can feel your brain being scrambled by the electricity but you manage to continue to laugh.

The guy eventually drops the electrodes and begins using you as a punching bag. You manage to keep laughing pretty hard, but it's a bit difficult after a couple of shots to the gut. The laughing obviously bugs the shit out of the guy, and he soon leaves.

You're not sure how long you're left hanging there, but the smoke is still rising off your body and your bruises still feel pretty fresh. It's a bit hard to see due to your freshly earned double black eyes, but you can vaguely see the outline of someone enter the room. They don't look at you, they instead go for a side of beef and leave with it thrown over their shoulder.

Moments later they stick their head through the door and a female voice asks. "Are you supposed to be here?"

[A] (Honest) I've ether died and be reincarnated as a side of beef, or I'm being held here for torture.
[B] (Lie) "I'm one of those new age butchers. My sensei said to become one with the meat, but I think I went a little too far. Could you help me down?"
[C] (Stay silent, play dead)...
[D] Other (Write in)

there we go. 4 properly modified rolls and there isn't a single nat one. Now to ride the nat 20 will train.

>>28666174

A

>>28666174
What the hell. A. If anything it could get us out of here. Or at least out of the chains for a bit.

>>28666174
[d]
So, this is the good cop bad cop routine?

>>28666174
Going with A here. Either she can save us or she's a part of the red skulls. Either kinda require honesty right now.

>>28666174
>[B] (Lie) "I'm one of those new age butchers. My sensei said to become one with the meat, but I think I went a little too far. Could you help me down?"

I just like this quip. It's too good to ignore.

"I've ether died and been reincarnated as a side of beef, or I'm being held here for torture." You say honestly, letting out a hard cough and immediately regretting it as you try to focus on the female voice.

"Torture? What did you do?"

"I don't know. I just wanted some money to go to Mull Island. So I went into this ruin, ran into a guy named Metalman, got paid, fought a robot, and had a ship crash on top of me."

"Wait, Robot? What kind of Robot?"

"I had flood lights, drill arms, and tubes coming from it's mouth." You say as the female presence draws closer to you.

"Wait, YOU were the one who trashed the Driller? It's going to take me a week to fix it!" The women lashes out and hits you in the chest, causing you to grunt in pain.

"Oh! I'm sorry, did I hurt you?" She says, sounding honestly concerned.

"No, no, the last guy turned my ribs into broken Popsicle sticks, one more punch isn't going to kill me...I think."

"So what's your name? Mine's Red."

"Bass." You state.

"...That's a pretty awful fake name."

"Listen my Dad was a fisherman and my Mom wasn't around to talk him out of it. Now could you cut me down please? I'd rather not end up looking anymore like the meat in here then I already do."

The female sighs and turns around. She leaves for a few moments and you're worried she's gone for good. However someone enters the room again walks over to you. You hear the sound of metal on metal and drop to the ground like a rock. Thankfully your ass wasn't tenderized like your chest was and you are able to shakily get to your feet, realizing you aren't wearing a shirt as you get a good look at the girl who saved you.

She is missing a crotch plate.

>>28666503
"Listen, I'm not really supposed to be doing this but I don't think you really deserve to be tortured. I'm just going to go ahead and leave now, I'll pretend I didn't see anything. Oh and whatever you do, don't go up if you're looking to escape, my Dad can smell blood." The girl says before heading out the door. leaving you cold, beaten, shirtless, but free and with a pair of bolt cutters in a locker full of meat.

This is the start of a really bizarre adventure, or maybe even a legend. You hope this is going to be a legend, because in the end...

>LEGENDS NEVER DIE

NEXT TIME ON DIGGER QUEST!

Pirates! Pirate Families. Sexy Pirate Girls. The Great Ocean. Falls from Great Heights and young Bass's escape attempt from a dreaded Red Skull Airship!

Thanks OP! Really enjoyed it.

>>28666604
First, get our weapons back, and loot the best shit we can find.

We can't leave with only our shit, it not going to end well.

Just take the most valuables stuff.

And our buster, that shit is rare and USEFUL.

How we got it with our shitty salarey?

We need a boat and a map, a parachute and then go to mull island.

>>28666692
You found the Buster Gun in the basement of Mr. Beermat's Pub.

I'm probably going to run Part 2 this Friday, I'll push back my other quest to Saturday.

>>28666604
Even now, there is still hope left in man. Great quest, can't wait for friday. Can't wait to see if Bass can become the strongest... and if somehow he has a grandfather on his mother's side with an einstein haircut, a nice stache, a bald spot and a love for skull shaped housing.
