Alright writing

"Alright" Lyra says under her breath, keeping her head down so her top hat covers her eyes in its shadow "If we can get him away for a few seconds I think I can come up with something new, we just need to"

She says it quickly and my now clear head comes up with an answer nearly insantly as a smirk passes on my lips. My helmet's little pointer things light up, locking onto the giant humanoid cat flying towards me, the world seeming to slow as lift up my shield arm and nod.

"Alright then, we'll work one out if I don't get my brains fried again" I say as my massive shield twists around to cover my arm as I take a step and rush the monster that's charging me draped in a thunderstorm and more than a few mewling cats.

"Wait don't do that again! your spear conducts!" Lyra yells, before she just yells and swings her whip. To stop me? stop the monster?don't know. The monster yowls as I raise up my spear and

"STONE FIST!" Juniper yells, as the ground shakes under me, and she rises up out of it, pushing a massive fist of stone against my feet, lifting me and tossing me through the air.

I flail my feet, coming down quickly as the count throws his claws out, laughing wickedly as his cape flows behind him.

Thrusting forward, his laugh cuts off into a pained shriek. He grabs onto my spear and I toss it, the effort hurting my aching arm as he flies back as a ball of light and cats.

The ground cracks under me as I hit it, landing on my feet somehow

"Hoooows that for a punch eh?" Juniper says, giving a thumbs down and she lopes over to my side, grinning and wagging her tail

"I..I" Lyra stutters "I'm sorry I said anything, shouldn't have doubted you now, listen I think I have an idea"

Juniper begins to walk away, so I grab her by the back of her....oh right no shirt. I turn around and grab her shoulder as she tries to run after the just plain unnatural noises the crimson count is making right now.

"Wait" I say softly as she pouts and squats next to me, crouching down as Lyra stabs her cane into the ground and grins under her scarf

"But he's right there" Juniper says, pouting and whining as Lyra clears her throat and demands attention

"Alright, we need to find a source of water, a pond or river would do but the sea would be better' She says quickly, her eyes glowing brightly as she takes a quick breath "He'll think he'll have the advantage with his electric magic, but with Verdant's magic we can nullify that nearly insantly which should give us a bit of a surprise, more so if Atomic poisons the water as I think he'd try to use it as a shield and to get us to rush into it now....also if I stole his magic on the way there or while you two distracted him we might be able to put him in a world of hurt....if he stays in the water long enough, now me and you verdant will need to summon up some back up to distract him so you can lead us to"

"I AM GOING TO RIP YOUR HEART OUT ATOMIC!" the crimson count shrieks "AND I AM GOING TO CHAR IT SO IT TURNS BLACKER THAN YOUR FORTUNE, I WILL RUIN YOU FOR THIS INCOLENCE"

"Oh, he's here" I say dully as Lyra shrieks and Juniper leaps up in surprise

We need to keep the momentum

"FUSING SLAM!" I shout, my shield switching back around as I punch my arm towards the ground. The metal on its edge boils and begins to steam and hiss as it mixes into the dirt and rocks under my feet. A second later there's a loud bang. My shield shakes and begins to spark and glow as the crimson count lands on top of it, snarling at me as he starts trying to melt away the wall I've just put in front of us.

"OH BACK OFF!" Juniper yells as she digs her hands into the ground "Ground Sh"

A moment later a cat made of blood pounces on her, and she just bats it away with the back of her hand as the count raises one of his hands from my shield, keeping one slicing through it by slowly melting it.

"Away you mongrel of a pest" He says coldly as I hold my hand out, the bits of my shield flaking off turning into the same sickly green light of my magic, reforming in my hand as my spear....warming my palm as Juniper raises her hand again with a snarl

"MUD"

"RUN!" Lyra yells, stabbing her cane forward, it turns into a whip and wraps it around the cat man's neck

"BALL!" Juniper yells, throwing a ball of mud the size of her head at the monster.

The count goes quiet as the ball hits his head, and the whip wraps around his neck. Moving his hand to it, his palm begins to spark

"RUN!" Lyra yells again, dropping her whip as it begins to fade away into lilac light

It's alright HM, take all the time you need

Nearly ripping my hand away from my rapidly melting shield, I turn around and begin to run as fast as I can in my clanking armor, until it begins to move and shift around, the heavier parts of it disintegrating into the green smoke and fire in came from as the mask in front of my helmet rises up and I see the world as it is once again. No more green tint or signs pointing out everything around me....and no tiny my cackling like a mad woman

"AH so the dog will go first then?" the count yells as Juniper growls furiously. I don't turn around.

"She can handle herself for a minute or two, just keep running!" Lyra says, trying her best to sound panicked even though the glint in her eyes tells an entirely different story"we NEED your MAGIC for my PLAN!"

"You know I've eaten cats before right? You're just more to chew up" Juniper roars, stomping on the ground hard enough to make it shake and nearly make me trip "Come on and have a go you over grown furball"

"I CAN SAY THE SAME TO YOU, NOW TASTE THE STAINED STORM" The count says, the air starting to get tingly again

"SHAKING STOMP" Juniper yells as the ground begins to shudder even as far as I've ran

"RUN RUN RUN!" my locket yells out "BURN YOUR SOLES AND THE GROUND UNDER THEM"

.....I hope Lyra is right. I mean Juniper is made of hardier stuff than either of us just because of what she is....Not sure how much more durable my magic has made me, but I know Monsters like her can take a beating. Still it doesn't feel right just to leave her behind like this, I mean I've gone and done that once before and.

I shake the bad thoughts of my head and begin to slow down as my more resonably size shield reforms in my hand, burning and steaming as I jog past a bolder....Oh this would be perfect! I can still help her at least in a small way. I just hope its enough.

Running my hand over the mossy stone, I place my shield on the end of it. Lyra slows down her run as I pull my arm back and yell "EXPLOSIVE SLAM"
-
VERDANT BRAWLAH....Juniper
-
"EXPLOSIVE SLAM!" carol yells, sounding not close at all. I turn, seeing why she isn't helping me rip up this guy.Instead I see a lot of smoke and dust and a big old rock flying towards.

Feeling claws and that lightning digging into my face, I kick off the overfed cat, smelling my fur burning...doesn't smell good at all! It makes me feel sick!

Oh and by jumping off of him I've leaped into the rocks way, huh. Well good thing I have magic now or this would be pretty bad for me. I'd turn into a furry pancake!

"Ca...Atomic?" I asks, falling through the giant stone and sitting on it once it lands and bounces once before sliding to a stop

Hmmm...nowhere? Not here? Oh. Well that's not good, ah well more for me then! guess she listened to the scaredy cat and whatever she was saying earlier.

I'll have to bite her ears for that later....kinda hard to do though since

"AH!" I yell, pushing myself up as a lighting bolt flies past my arm

"Pups" I say, rolling back onto my legs and sitting crouched on my haunches as the count walks up to me and begins to bleed more of those cats...the ones actually made of blood with teeth like mine. Those ones are a pain, but go down pretty easy. Hmm well I should make this even then shouldn't I? It'd only be fair! "COME ON!"

I dig my claws into the rock, the brown magic digging into it and make it crack and glow as it begins to cut itself up into some lovely little puppies to help me here.

I grin widely, licking my chops as the stone dogs come to life and rush the cats as the count thing just crosses his arms and watches.

"MISTAKE!" I bark as I barrel past them, dragging my hands over the ground as it turns into thick, wet mud "MUD SLIDE"

"WAIT WHAT?!" He yells as the pups move away from the pools of blood they're lapping up as I slide into his feet, barreling into him as they rush him and start biting into him as I slip and slide back around. Running on my hands and feet I rush to go join in mauling him when

Ah, he's starting to get all lightninging again

I tilt my head back and Howl

"RUN WILD!" the me in the locket howls with me "CHASE THE PREY, RIP AND TEAR IT UP, RUN RUN RUN! WILD RUNNER"

My pants tear up and rip away, as the bandages run down to cover me up, bits of teeth and bone forming on my wrists and ankles to make a nice jangling noise as I stand back up and leap into the air.

Bits of wood form over my hands, wrapped with bits of vine and set in place with stone. Two Stone claws push out of the new gloves as my hair flows behind me.

A wooden mask covers up my eyes painted up to look like my old face before the rainbow lady gave me my humanish one.

"I...am tired of playing around in the dirt with you! stand still so I can put you under it!" He hisses as he rips two of my four puppies to pieces with his hands, and points his finger at me. His claw begins to glow

"Oh shut it" I say, with a grin "you're out of your depth! these woods have been my home for years! You ain't ever even tasted meat before! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TALK TO ME YOU TAMED BITCH!"

"Die" he says, his eyes turning into those of a predator....well prey pretending to be one!. And the little arrows and me are pointing at where his excuse for a heart is!

I twist my body around, like I'm trying to not get pinned while fighting. Heh, and pinky said my old life wouldn't help me now. A beam of pure red light flies past me and begins to turn as the cat man thing starts yelling and cursing at me to sit still like he has been but the fire in my heart can't be quenched! I need to fight fight fight! Bite chew and maul! come on come on! play play!

I see his eyes go wide with fright as he bashes away my other puppies, breaking the head of one and the leg of another and that makes me mad! they may not be real but

"THEY'RE MY PUPPIES!" I scream, all the arrows in front of my face point for his chest.

He swings his clawed hand out, as I ball mine into fist and drive the stone claws into his chest.

I laugh and howl as my mind clears up, just like it used to be. Thinkings hard, so just follow my instincts I say

"You aren't like the other two" he says slowly as I tilt my head and flip over him as he turns to blood and flows under me

"Oh really?!" I say sticking out my tongue, panting as smoke pours out of my mouth

"Not in abilities, but outlook, they have more than empty skulls on their shoulders you see" He says calmly "but you smell oh so much like"

"Blah blah blah!" I say, doing the insult hand thing Carol showed me when we watched ourselves on the tv

".....Really are you sure chaos did not spawn you?" He says as I slouch and begin to stalk around him

Why give him an answer? its obviously no!

He misses me for a second, and with a growling yap I rush him, kicking off the ground with enough force to fly up into the air almost as high as birds fly. Falling back down just as quickly as I went up, I can't help but lick my teeth in antici....whatever that word is! This is going to be fun to wipe that smug smile off his face with my claws, real and stone. But first, with all the burrying he's been mentioning why don't I burry him? the ground is all muddy under him already so it shouldn't be hard to sink him into it with a bit of magic right?

He keeps his hands under his coat, which is stained with mud just like his real coat. His furs gotten so messy and I am going to make it even dirtier! HA. My claws dig into him easily as I push him to the ground. He looks up at me as the ground ripples like a puddle and

"Idiot" He says as I twist my claws, feeling dread in the back of my mind as he howls in pain "YOU....gah!"

He's moving his hand up, and its lightningy again!

Smoke and blood, I can see and taste it at once after the brief moment of nothing. I don't know how but I'm now sitting against a tree, with black smoke pouring out of my lips. My head stops being foggy after a second, and I start to stand up. My head is burning again I think, and now I'm sure I hate this guy and his magic. And to make me angrier, he's starting to pull himself out of the mud I pushed him into a under. And he's sparking, guess he's starting to get serious with me here

"Alright, I've been mistaken to treat you as a non threat, blunt instruments like you are easily underestimated' He says, pushing his fur back as he tries to get his arm out of the mud "But I suppose a sledge hammer does more damage than a scalple"

Omake: Future Sheep I

"No, I wasn't... made. I just evolved." Tha sheep woman says with some annoyance to the younger sheep girls.

"Wow, so you are a monster?" One of the smaller sheep girls asks.

"Yes. I used to be... just a smart sheep. Maybe my father or mother was a monster? I have no idea."

"Is that why you are so tall?" the older of the sheep girls asked her, her name sounds like a pun of Barbara and sheep noises or something.

"No... that's from... passing a few magic tests. A ritual to become a shaman, and yes my teacher doesn't know why that made me grow." The sheep woman then pets a really big female hare."This girl is named Selena, she is my companion and you can play with her if you are careful."

"Yay!"

"She is so cute!"

As the two younger sheep girls go to play with the bunny, the older one stays to talk with the sheep woman some more.

"What's like being a shaman?'

"Oh, I am basically an intermediarie between spirits and mortals. I also do potions and stuff. I still just an apprentice so I can't do much. And don't expect me to shapechange into anything big."

"You can shapechange? That's awesome!" The smallest of the sheep girls starts to ask her to show off.

In retrospect, maybe turning into a scary wolf wasn't the best idea...

Luckyly that Lazy Cat appeared and played "hero".

then he just stares at me as I lower myself to the ground, looking down the hole in the trees were carol threw that rock at us....guess she was trying to help? Know she ain't dumb enough to play fetch with something that big. Slowly I look back to the count of crimson or whatever he's called, as lightning flows around him and his claws grow as blood drips down them. He doesn't say anything and neither do I. We just watch eachother for a second, and for once I decide to not listen to my instincts. Cause he hurts when he gets his hands on me, and I don't like being electrocuted or whatever the word is for that. It hurts!

But he's slow. I am fast, faster when I'm like this! Free to feel the air on my skin and fur, and the mud running over me without those annoying clothes. I am very fast, fastest thing in the woods besides that apex predator.....then again those dead things are always so fast.

I shake my head and stand up like I'm going to lunge at him, wagging my tail and swaying side to side....Oh the world is swaying not me. He frowns and then smiles the way my brother does when he sees meat.

And I smile back the same way! and then turn around and run as fast as I can, kicking up a wave of mud with a bit of magic.

"OH finally some wits! Self preservation! You have chosen flight! but too late" he yammers on

Oh not like I can do both! He thinks just a dog,but I'm a monster and I used to be a beast! Doing both fighting and fighting is how me and my brother stayed alive.And this magic makes both of those things a lot easier. So thanks for that pinky. I smirk as I run down a path I used to stalk hunters of all kinds down, leaping over a big old rock I once gutted a deer over, as the count just follows after me, insulting me and calling me dumb as he follows me along. Guess he doesn't think I can't be clever like Carol eh?

He's falling right into my trap, and he doesn't even know it. I cackle to myself, laughing and howling as I catch the scent of my friends. Yeah need to bite their ears for leaving me back there to do whatever it was they were doing.

"EARTH PUNCHES" I shout as I flip around to see a new horde of the blood cats, strangely silent unlike they last few times he birth them out. He starts sparking and continues on, crackling with the stuff as big bolts of lightning shoot out of him as several fists of dirt and rock punch him and his little pets. Can't hear what he's saying over all the crackling, snapping and thudding, but i know its something mean. Besides he's got what was coming to him. Giggling, I run through the clearing to one of the deep ponds in the forest....the one with the slimes, I don't like coming here cause those things tried to drown me when I was a pup

Shaking my head, I hear a loud bang as the count crimson breaks my little trap and comes roaring for me.

"Ah!" I gasp as I see Carol and Lyra standing at the edge of the pond. Better not have ran off for a little swim without me!

Important questions.

"Hey what was the plan again?!" I yell as loudly as I can, getting their attention and making them turn to look at me, carol's weird armored skirt flowing like her ponytail does. Oh looks like they ready to fight now"

I yelp, feeling a shock on my back as I'm reminded I need to keep running.

"HELP HELP HELP' I yelp, as more bolts of lightning and cats, both real and made of blood bite into me, drawing blood....maybe that's why people wear clothes? so they don't bleed this easily?!

"NUCLEAR FIRE" Carol says, pointing her glowing sword at me, the piece of scrap burning with steam as the cats on me burst and boil, their blood catching fire before she pulls her hand back "ATOMIC LANCE"

"ATOMIC!" the count roars "You think you're so clever then do"

"NIGHTS BLADE" Lyra says, smacking the count in the face with a massive blade made out of shadows "PUPPET'S MARCH"

"HEY, why'd you leave me huh?" I ask as I lyra drags me up on my feet with her little strings

"We told you what we were doing" She sighs, shaking her head as carol nods and steps forward

"You didn't follow us, and i thought you could handle it" Carol says, sounding a bit guilty "and you did, also we have more important things to worry about"

"I don't like being left behind like that" I say, crossing my arms as Lyra shoots me a weird look

"Can you focus, he's coming to attack us again!" She yells as I huff and look away

"We didn't try to leave you, you left yourself" Carol laughs "But turn around he's"

"I am going to bite both of your ears you little" I growl as Lyra whimpers and shrinks back and Carol has an disapointed alpha look on her face

"Juniper~"She says, pushing past me as she raises up her sword, as she starts pumping magic into it "Please just"

"HEY WATCH THIS!" I shout as I twirl around, nearly knocking off her feet as she yelps "LOOK WHAT'S HAPPENS TO HIS FACE"

I slam my fist into the counts face, sparks flowing down my arm as my knuckle's slam into his snot and the stone claws ontop of them stab into his head.
"Don't mess around so much, and don't just push....ergh" Lyra groans as she raises up the puppets she just made from old drift wood

"Its fine, its fine she didn't mean it and she did a good job" Carol says rubbing her face

ah crap. He's grabbed my wrist

Well ain't that fortunate timing.

So I do what the teacher told me to when strange men grab me, and kick him as hard as I can in the crotch. He freezes up, his magic fizzling out for a moment or two as his eyes bulge out and he glares down at me with a blank stare. A pained groan crawls out of his throat, his eyes filling with tears as he slowly begins to crumple to his knees.

He starts to react as I pull his hand off of mine, and pull my other arm back to punch him again and finish the job. Carol steps next to me and slams her shield into his face.

"EXPLOSIVE SLAM" She shouts, as I pull my arm back further, stones gathering on it as I growl "STONE FIST" and aim for his neck


The stone claws stab into his neck, two kittens crawling out of the hole I made. But then he just grab my wrist and Carols.

"MELTDOWN" She yells, as her sword glows with steam and green fire.

He just throws us both aside, electricity arcing around him as I try to avoid it while Carol holds her shield up to try and avoid it


"And now for the weakest link" He says, appearing in front of Lyra with a red cloud

He grabs her face before she can react and

I begin to move to help her, but then I notice that Carol isn't moving from where she is, but doesn't look much hurt than she already was. She's just watching. and this isn't right, and I know she isn't being controlled so I'm really confused right now. Looking back over at Lyra, I notice she's smiling even though this strong bastard is grabbing onto her face. Oh...oh right. She did have a plan didn't she, but does it involve having the snot beaten out of her? Was that what she and carol were talking about before I got here? Knowing how protective she is I don't think she'd just watch this happen. So this has to be playing into their plans right? I mean I didn't pay attention to it at all, pretty sure I didn't hear "Oh yeah he'll grab my face then die". But I could be wrong and she is pretty fucking clever.

And I know Carol wouldn't watch either of us get hurt if she could do something about it, she's like an alpha or "older sister' in that way I've been told.

Guess I can't argue with a 20.

>>1950789
I bet lurkers are scared of ruining 20s...

>>1950794
We had way too many 1s today.

Wait, they said something about getting him into the water right? then what the hell is she doing!? is she dumb!? Getting herself hurt to just lure him into the water is dumb! its obvious you need to force him in there if you want to get anything done to him!

Running as quick as the lightning the count has been spitting ever since he's ran into us, I leap into the air, holding my arms out as sparks begin to run from his shoulders to his finger tips to fry Lyra's head. I know that hurts! no one deserves having that happen to them!.

She turns to look at me, her eyes going wide, looking surprised and even ofended and angry for some reason. But she gets what's going on, and grabs his hand as she tries to get away from him. But I slam into him a second later and bring lift him off of his feat and drag him deep into the water with a massive splash.

He claws at me and tries to shock me but

Bubbles flow out of his mouth as some slimes grab onto him and try to grab me. All of my thoughts end as I panic and swim back up to the surface as quickly as I can.

I sigh in relief, stabbing my sword into the ground as I watch Juniper clamber back up onto the shore. Well I'm glad she figured out what we were doing here. And I'm even gladder she found a way to make it better, instead of lyra sacrificing her own health so I wouldn't have to lure him into the water. Never seen her look like that though....did something under there scare her? Not like I have to guess what, being shocked under water is a pretty scary thought....but she's never been one to shy away from pain so why does she look so terrified.

I frown, feeling a little sick, since that's what seeing people scared out of their wits does to me.

Lyra crawls over to the waters edge, her hands sparking as Juniper shakes herself and glares at the water, growling and..........Oh....right! I forgot she was naked going into the water! How can she walk around like that!? ....eh I guess it is kind of natural for her to, but its still a little too much

"You look sexy naked I mean... next time use a swimsuit!"

>>1950833
>[] Ask Holiday if her friends ever had plans like this
Maybe we'll actually not fuck this up for once.

Bah, doesn't matter. Need to make sure she's okay right now, whether or not she's wearing any clothes doesn't matter. Just from here I can tell she's pretty battered up....well a bit more from when I last saw her before she came barreling out of the treeline with the crimson count hot on her tail...literally. Frowning, I walk through the overgrown grass and clover up to her as she shakes her head and tries to dry herself off.

"Hey juniper" I say, as she turns and glares at me, before smiling happily

"Sup?" She says dully "not going to bite your ear if you're worrying bout that"

"No...no" I say shaking my head "not worried at all by that to be honest but....are you okay, you seem pretty shaken up and well scared"

"Hmmph" She says, scratching her ears with her clawed feet.....all that's covering her is bandages and some bone armbands, she really has no shame does she?

"Juniper" I say, kneeling a bit closer to you "do you need anything? could at least tell me what scared you so much?"

"Slimes, nasty things" She says simply "Don't want to talk about it"

"Oh....well alright, sorry if I brought up bad memories" I say with a sweet smile as I see the count rise up in the now electricity filled lake, great arcs of lilac colored lightning burning into him and running over the surface of the water

"He's almost gone, we can go once he's gone" Lyra says coldly her eyes focused on the suffering monster

"Can we celebrate after that? get something to eat?" Juniper asks as I stab my blade into the water and begin to boil it up and make it begin to steam and hiss as the count begins to fall down

"Oh we have to" Lyra says looking to me

"Why are you both looking at me?" I ask with a frown as I look back to the boiling pond "also holiday, did your friends ever have plans like this?"

"Oh sorry I wasn't able to help I was just uh" Holiday says quickly and panicked "Uh....oh wow you've managed to...oh, well some times, most of the time we just sort of did our own thing and it got us through out conflicts and battles pretty easily, then again My older....crimson did have a rather powerful ability that made planning pretty null and void...then again her and charlotte have a talen for"

She looks down and frowns sadly looking like she's about to cry.

"Hey holi are you" I ask, reaching for her before she smiles and looks up

"Oh yes, I was just thinking" She says chipperly "Now lets get that orb and get you all back so you can have some fun, okay?"

"Why are celebrating we still have work to Mmmmph!" I say before Juniper and Lyra cover my mouth.

Good show HM, playing Juniper was super fun. Great to have best doggo on our side.

Wonder what "fun" will entail. Maybe we need to go visit Juniper's brother, and simultaneously solve Lyra's pet need and Juniper's pack need by inadvertently becoming honourary doggos!

Wonder what perks there are to being honourary doggos?

>>1950891
Great thread as always HM, thanks for running. I know this pompous fuck isn't enough for a wish, I'm just glad we're getting up on the food chain so to speak. The return of the Destructive Saviors is nigh! Also SOMEONE is getting a catgirl mode by next thread I swear.

>>1950900
Well, I imagine its similar to the perks of having a puppy, but the puppies are eight foot tall murder machines that are still learning how to people right

Also there was no finishing move cause I thought the plan coming together was the finisher itself

>>1950909
>Juniper chases whoever gets it for the whole day


ALSO
may fit in an extra thread of this this week, will say so on twitter, just fyi

>>1950912
>>Juniper chases whoever gets it for the whole day

YES Or Juniper getting chased around by her own mud puppies and/or brother, that would be fun as hell

And awesome news HM, see you then if it happens. And thanks again for everything, you're an awesome guy

I kinda don't want catgirl mode, that would be too easy.

*The world is your bathroom!*

Law and rules of hygiene say otherwise, you don't want to spread disease or get sick, do you?

*Lying in the grass is so comfy*

Don't do it during cold weather, you will catch a cold.

Be careful with what you lick a lot of people and things are toxic

*SO MANY SMELLLLLSSSS*

Don't try smelling in the industrial zone, you will hate it.
