Barbara stood patiently at the cliff, and by patiently I mean she was barely holding on without forcefully preventing herself from going Into the woods by herself and face Mr Dark for kidnapping her adopted sisters, but she knew she had to wait for her partner who should be here anytime...In fact he'll be right on time at this rate as Barbara looked around for the time.

And saw a walking clock which she jumped towards. "Hey, you know the time?" Barbara said to the clock as he spoke. "Well sure I do, a time here a time here and ARGHHHHHH STOP!" The clock said as Barbara picked him up to look at the time, her partner really was on time and once she knew that, she threw the clock away and continued to wait for Pac-Man.

Barbara squatted up and down while waiting for Pac-Man as she tried to come up with a rhyme about him.

"Come on, Pac, Mac, Gac, Man."

Woo, this place was quite the walk. This is the likely the farthest he had been from the Life Sphere. He had rumors, that heading out far from the bubble would lead to all kinds of threats, giant monsters and roaming beasts. He tried to stay local for his first few quest but soon he couldn't help but wonder. Maybe it was his old adventurer side kicking in after so many years of staying at home. Besides that though, he had acquired plenty of new toys and trinkets that held all kinds of powers so he felt more ready to venture out. Plus, someone was missing their family. If anybody knew about that, he was surely one of them...

PAC-MAN came running across the starry field, moving as fast as he could without tripping himself up. He spotted a green figure in the distance and continued to pedal forward towards it. His boots skidded across the ground as he made his way up to her, slowing down to halt. She seemed rather jumpy, completely understandable to him. Unsure of what to do really, the yellow man gave her a small pat on the back, trying to get her to loosen up a bit. Pac was ready to roll when she was.

Barbara turned and was surprised to notice Pac-Man had arrived. "Ahh, you arrived, perfect!" Barbara said as she turned towards the woods. "You know those deep wooded jungle over there where nobody can hear you call for help...Or scream." Barbara said as she quickly spoke. "Well that's where my sisters and cousin are, let's go rescue them strange yellow blob!" Barbara said as she slid down the hill stylishly before skydiving Into a swamp.

"Ow...I did expect that." Barbara said as she looked around at the swamp...And soon chomping from the front of her, she looked down to notice alligators chomp towards her as she quickly looked around. "Quick, onto these vines, alligators are allergic to vines, trust me, I saw them and you don't want to go Into the deep end of an alligators tail!" Barbara said as she ran towards the vine to grab on It to avoid the alligators.

(Roll a DEX 12 to grab onto the vine, failure to grab the vine will result In the alligator chomping on you and giving you 15% damage.)

Barbara held onto the vine as she called out to Pac-Man.

"Quick Pac, imagine being chased by an angry ghost with teeth!"1d20+4

Ah, well, that's a pretty picture to paint. Just what our friendly neighborhood arcade man needed to hear- and again with these strange names and shapes for him. Was he really that strange? He thought over it with a tap of a foot.

And there off! She lept up and off before he could finish his thought. He peered over the edge to look down at the swamp below. Gators? Oh this was going to be quite the trip.

wdRf5HQrp_1d20  (Welp.)

He managed to touch the vine but it slipped right out of his grasp as if it butter.  As he knew what was coming, he tensed up and tried to brace himself for what was coming.  One of the swamp beast managed to get a clean set of the teeth on his spherical body.

p_1d20

A sudden jolt of energy caused him to spring up into the air like a firework had been set off.  His hands actually hung on this time.  Whether that be of fear or simply some sudden burst of strength was unknown.  A nervous laugh managed to escape him as he looked down at the swamp beast below.

"You ok?" Barbara said to Pac-Man as the alligators surrounded the two, however there eyes widened when they saw the vines and quickly scampered off so they don't get allergic reactions. "Perfect, vines take us to wherever you go!" Barbara said to the vine as It quickly sent Barbara and Pac-Man up to an inside of the tree, where they accidentally hit someone who was standing at the vine spot.




A Teensie.



"Ow, I saw what Is the meaning of this?" The Teensie who was hit by the vine said as Barbara stood In front of him as four other Teensies appeared and looked at the two as Barbara tried to apologise. "I'm sorry, we had to escape some nasty alligators and...Oh my dip!" Barbara said as she pointed to the centre of the room. "Barbara?" A feminine voice said.



Who was revealed to be one of the Nymphs, Susie, who was trapped In a very small cage. "Barb, there you are, could you get these Teensies to let me out, Mr Dark did this!" Susie said as Barbara looked confused. "Wait, why would Mr Dark give you to the Teensies, I thought he hated everything." Barbara said as one of the Teensies spoke. "We thought so too, he just gave Susie to us, the king will let her out for you of course." The Teensie said as Barbara was still confused.

"So...Who's the king?"

"Me!"

"No, me!"

"It's me!"

"No Me you idiot!"

"I'm the king!"

"WHO'S THE KING!?"

The five teensies stopped and gave the crown to one of them before pushing said newly crowned king In front of Barbara. "Uhh, I cant help you, you actually have to open the cage yourself by bashing Into It." The King said pointing towards the cage Susie was In, Barbara smirked.

"No problem!"

i_BNz7Cip_1d20+4(She failed.)

But tripped as Susie sighed.

(To free Susie, roll a 15 In Strength to open the cage.)

Stepping off of the vine spot, he was bit uneasy.  Had those gators really gone away?  He rubbed the fang spot on his head as he followed Barbara towards the small creatures.  A neutral expression crossed him as he watched them bumble around, trying to pass the crown off to the other.  The fairy in the cage told of the situation in which he looked down at the blue things, still fumbling the gold headpiece, before back at the cage.  Yeah, he wasn't quite sure how they could accomplish the task as they struggled to establish a leadership amongst themselves.  He didn't question, not that he even could, and listened.  Suddenly shouting threw him a little off guard and made him coil back a bit.  At least they had decided on their leader.

He watched as the viking made her way up to the cage, determined to open it, only to fall flat on the ground.

PAC-MAN stepped up to the cage and looked over it.  It looked doable.  He revved back his boot and gave it a good kick, just enough force he need too.

Pac-Man managed to successfully break Susie out of her cramped prison and she laughed upon being released before looking down at the group. "Thank's for saving me guys, I knew I can count on you Barb to get some help!" Susie said as Barbara looked up and rubbed the back of her head. "Aww, twet nothing sis." Barbara said as Susie giggled while the Teensie King clapped his hand. "This sister reunion Is rather sweet, but I think you three should leave now as were doing a party ceremony...However be sure to look for yellow lum's during your time In this forest." Teensie King said as Barbara looked confused.

"There's lums here?" Barbara said as the Teensie King nodded. "Why of course, most of us beings were transported In this odd world upon that mysterious earthquake happening In our own world, yellow lums are sure to be around here, come back here with five of them and maybe we'll give you a surpri---It's a secret realm full of obstacles!" The Teensie interrupted the king as he facepalmed. "Yes, It's an obstacle course!" The Teensie King said as Barbara nodded. "Right, we'll be sure to find the lums when we have a chance, right Pac?" Barbara said to Pac as she and Susie left the treehouse.

"Thank's for saving me again sis...Now If you excuse me, I'm going to check out this odd mysterious meadow, goodluck with your rescue!" Susie said as she teleported away upon leaving the Teensie's new lair. As Barabara started to walk on the very large branch she was now on...She noticed that the setting was getting...Darker.

"What's going on now?"

Just then...He appeared.





"Mr Dark..."

He remained silent and prepared to attack the duo.

Keep an eye out for Lums, gotcha.  Other than that they were yellow, he wasn't exactly sure what to look out for.  Barbara knew what they were so that would make it easier.  For all of them being gathered, he would receive an obstacle course?  He wasn't sure how to react to that.  It was a rather strange gift.  He nodded to Barbara in response to her question.

With the fairy gone, he was unsure where to go now.  He supposed he would have to do an old fashioned search.  A meadow shouldn't be too hard to search.  Pac looked down from the tree at the ground below.  Probably be best to get down on the ground and walk from there as jumping from tree to tree sounded a bit dangerous unless it was clear for them.  Not his go-to strategy.  His look-around continued until he heard the words of Barbara.  In confusion, he looked up.  No memory of it being that dark before had crossed him.  It couldn't have been night.  At least, he didn't believe so.  He backed away from the edge of the platform and continued to look at the darkening horizon. 

PAC-MAN didn't feel very threatened by Mr Dark.  He looked the same as one of the Teensies behind him except for the dark attire.  They looked too big for the small blue creature and made the yellow man display an awkward smile.  The idea of something tiny like that being dangerous made him start to laugh.  It was silent but his spherical body pulsed with each chuckle he made.  Probably not the wisest thing to do in this situation but he couldn't help it.  Alright, alright.  He stopped for the most part and clapped his hands together.  Let's get this over with.

[Deleted]

Mr Dark began his descent into attacking the duo as he flew into the darkened area. "There he goes...But where did he go?" Barbara said to Pac-Man, unaware Mr Dark was watching them in his own vision, he took out a dagger and slowly advance towards the two, preparing to stab them each with his dagger in the darkness while they wander aimlessly around the area trying to find him.

Q0cXtXxlp_1d20-4(She couldn't see in the dark.)

p_1d20+4(But she was quickly enough to stop the dagger!)

Barbara was blind in the dark, but quickly saw the dagger being risen above her and quickly kicked it off from Mr Dark's hand. Barbara watched as the dagger flew over Pac-Man and was stabbed in the ground in front of him, Mr Dark groaned and flew towards the dagger as Barbara called towards her partner.

"GET THAT DAGGER!"

(Roll a Strength 12 to reach the dagger on time, if you do then you can deal 20% damage to Mr Dark.)

PAC-MAN watched as the Mr Dark vanished into the surrounding darkness. This was going to be tricky. His eyes narrowed as he squinted into the dark, trying to find the man hiding within. No, not there. He spun around on his heels. No luck here...

The sound of a blade shook him and made him turn around to the source of the noise. The slight silver glimmer made it out to him as he realized what it was. The idea of being stabbed didn't sit well with him. He shuddered a bit from the thought of it.

sNIRWOAep_1d20

Barbara's words shook him and made him jolt into action.  He ran at the blade as fast as he could, managing to snag it before the shadow man could get to it.  He stepped back and waited for him to close in before taking the blade and tossing it at him.

Mr Dark reached for his dark dagger...But slipped and slid into the darkness he created, groaning feminely in the process as Pac-Man succeeded in getting the dagger first. "Great job Pac, now find Dark and stick it into him!" Barbara said as Mr Dark came out from behind her and fired dark pillars at her, Barbara turned and gasped.

"Sneak attack!"

Meanwhile Mr Dark was...Laughing evily to himself and when he finished...He did it again.

Come out, come out, Mr Dark. PAC-MAN has got a surprise for you. He held the dagger tightly in his hand as he looked around in the darkness, searching for the dark wizard. When the dark pillars began to spring from the ground, Pac knew this would be his chance. He watched the beams rise from seemingly nowhere. She was launched down beside him. He nodded before spotting the dark wizard... laughing evilly. Why did they always feel the need to do that?

BjFt9|9Kp_1d20(Dagger Slash!)

PAC-MAN ran up to the laughing foe and slashed the knife at him.  Laughing in the face of danger didn't seem like the best idea.  He kept the blade on hand, assuming it was still of use, and held up his other hand.  A bright burst of yellow pixels sprang forth from his hand as he summoned up a key.  A electronic chime was emitted as it was created.  He then closed his palm back, the key now vanishing into nothing, kept safe by Pac's arcade abilities.

Mr Dark was still laughing to himself when Pac-Man managed to slash him with the dagger, causing him to yelp as he spoke. "Ow!" Mr Dark said, sounding like a girl, when he realised he spoke and was hit by his own dagger, he quickly vanished from the duo as the area was back to normal once more before the two ran into Mr Dark, Barbara got up and patted Pac-Man triumphantly. "Nice job Pac, but I got a feeling that Mr Dark will probably come back to us soon, we should get moving and find my other six sisters and my cousin Ly." Barbara said as she prepared to move out further in the large woods.




When she saw two lums fly nearby. "A lum, let's catch it to impress those Teensies!" Barbara said as she tried to grab one of the lums.

(To reach the Lum, roll a DEX 15)

Barbara, missed the lum and fell down onto a slide that was leading to a glowing house at the end of it, she began to slide as she cheered herself on. "WOOOOO, jump down Pac!" Barbara called out to Pac-Man as she turned back in front of her, to notice a tree trunk in her way which she was about to hit. "Uh oh." Barbara said as she tried to jump over it.


p_1d20+4(Which she did excellently.)

"Choice!" Barbara said as she jumped over the tree trunk, and crashed into the porch of the glowing house. "That was a nice landing!" Barbara said to herself as the door to the house opened, and someone came fluttering out.




"Oh dear, are you ok young lady, you do know falling could give you bad owies!"

Upon hitting Mr Dark, Pac drew back the dagger and watched as he vanished, taking the darkness with him. His eyes looked over the sky as the dark blanket was taken away. That was rather easy although, he knew that wouldn't be the end of it. A nod was given to Barbara, happily following along.

So, those are the little Lum things... They look like Pac-Dots! Mmm... He hadn't had a good helping of those in a while. Leaping up at the flying bugs, he attempted to snatch them down out of the air.

He was no where near close.  PAC-MAN fell back down and tumbled down the incline.  His round body began to roll down the hill until he went with it, pulling into a Rev Roll as he made his way down. 

p_1d20(I'd say that's good enough.)

Hitting the log, he bounced off of it, giving him a good amount of air time before hitting the ground and continuing down.  The tumble stopped, letting him sprawl out on his belly.  He shook his head before standing up and scratching his head.

After Barbara checked her body, she turned her attention to Tily. "It's fine, me and my partner are fine, although we are searching for my sisters and cousin Ly, do you happen to know where one of them is?" Barbara said to Tily as she thought for a second before clicking her fingers and laughing, sounding annoying in the process.

"Yes, I found a cage in the middle of the room that had a nymph in it, I think her name is Big Mama, well Voodoo Mama and she doesn't seem to trust me for some reason." Tily said as she giggled for some reason. "You don't look evil by any accounts." Barbara said as Tily just floated around her and Pac-Man.




"OF COURSE NOT, I'M TILY THE FAIRY, THE CUTEST FAIRY YOU'LL EVER SEE, HEHE!" Tily said as Barbara groaned, "Now I see why she thought you were annoying." Barbara said as she entered Tily's house and called out to Voodoo Mama. "Big Mama, where are you sis?" Barbara said as she heard a voice from upstairs.

"Barb, up here yo, i'm stuck in this cage!" The voice of Voodoo Mama called out as Barbara ran up to Tily's room, as Tily continued to float around happily from outside her house.

While running however Barbara saw two Lum's float in front of her, she tried to grab one of them.

"Come here you little Lum."

z3JRVtmKp_1d20+4(Nice, she caught it!)

Barbara caught the Lum and placed it in her pocket before continuing to run up the stairs, calling down to Pac-Man while doing so. "Get that other Lum Pac!" Barbara said as she kicked the door to Tily's room open.



To see her sister, Big Mama trapped in a cage in the middle of the room. "Big Mama, your ok!" Barbara said as Big Mama replied. "Heck yeah, but it's Voodoo Mama girl, get your names right girl!" Voodoo Mama said as she spoke again.

"Care to free Voodoo Mama out of this cage because my magic doesn't work on this baby for some reason."


p_1d20+4(And she's free!)




Barbara managed to successfully whack the cage open, freeing her sister who stretched her hands before looking down at Barbara. "Thanks sis, i'm finally free!" Voodoo Mama said as Barbara replied. "Sis, my partner freed Susie earlier, you might want to go looking for her, she's somewhere in this forest." Barbara said as Voodoo Mama looked down at her. "But what about our other five sisters...And Ly!" Voodoo Mama said as Barbara replied. "Dont worry about that, me and Pac-Man will find the others, you just go find Susie, we'll meet up with you two later." Barbara said as Voodoo Mama shrugged.

"If you say so sis!"

And with that Voodoo Mama vanished, happy that shes finally free from that tiny cage.
