After inflicting more pain on the two coins, the two stopped in place and started to speak in a distorted language. "ahkDGU28" And "BQWYIEGVTUVEWYQWTVW23682352!" The second coin would say. Eventually the one Twintelle was fighting would join in as well, saying along the lines of. "2317t9fdsghewjke3wgh!" It spoke as Twintelle looked at the three coins just standing in place, confused as to what to do now. "Strange. These coins seem to be glitching like some bug in a video game, like what happened to Blonic. You could say that he also glitched out." Twintelle tried to find something funny in the matter as the three coins quickly crashed into each other to create an ultimate glitch.




"fgkhbadweavhwjfw!" The glitch would say as Twintelle backed away. "We should get out of here. I don't want to end up touching that thing." Twintelle suggested to Ammy and Groose before turning towards the money machine. Where a dollar flew out of the machine and towards the nearby window, what caught Twintelle's eye was that the dollar was of her face. "That dollar. We should follow it outside!" Twintelle ran towards the dollar, grabbed it but fell out from the window. "WAHHH!" 


There was a loud crash heard outside after, almost like something...Gigantic crashed outside. Sure enough, a giant eye looked in from the money room. It was Twintelle, she was now a giant for some reason. "I think there might be something wrong with Li!" Twintelle said from outside the bank.

“Good work boy!” Groose praised Ammy for her help. Checking his pockets for a reward, he came up short. “I…only got Loftwing treats with me, sorry.”

The treats would have to wait, however as the next phase of the boss fight looked about ready to start.
“Some bug in a what?” Groose, being from a simple time before digital technology (despite ancient robots being a thing) didn’t get what she was talking about. “Well someone quickly net these things and put them in jars or something!”

“You don’t have to tell me twice!” Groose agreed to following behind Twintelle’s behind out of the place.
“Noooo!” Groose cried out in slow motion as he was too slow to stop Twintelle from jumping out of the window. Sure ‘Ladies first’ was a thing, but they didn’t know what was out there. Besides, Groose had more experience jumping out of stuff into the unknown. She could hurt herself! Airbag booty and all!

Hesitantly looking out of the window, not ready to see Twintelle’s beautiful broken remains below, Groose instead found a giant eye staring back at him. “Eeek!” he screeched as if Donkey Kong was going to kidnap him. But when she spoke, it turned out it was someone more likely to get kidnapped.

“Twintelle?” Groose gasped, not hesitating to jump out of the window after her. Besides, if she’s giant now, then odds are if he angled his descent juuust riiight…

Well, her attempt was a valiant one but it seemed the coins got off their plan as she failed to do enough damage to render the coin less sentient. The well groomed skyloftian still praised the attempt, a bit of an ego boost going through as she briefly turned her attention upward and gave a pleased wag of her tail; even if there were no food rewards. However, the pair of villainous mintage began jabbering jibberish in a worrying manner. The wolf's attention shot back to their opponents and she pulled her ears back, unsure if she should be listening to it or if it would turn her into a pumpkin or something by some hex. But then it was the coins who changed forms. Crashing together after a clever note from Twintelle the trio dissolved into a static, lanky and jagged with an incomprehensible array of color and speech. The glitch continued to natter its nonsense, Ammy growling in reply.

Her back hair bristled as it made a slow approach, bowing down to return the threat. The glitch was completely unphased, and a thread of panic began spreading through the group. Or at least that was the only reasoning Ammy could come up with for why Twintelle would jump out an unknown window. Last she knew they were on the ground floor of the bank so that wasn't so much a worry as what else could be out there. Groose chased after the movie star, Ammy watching his back and keeping any pressure, albeit empty, on the approaching glitch coins.

When Twintelle's voice boomed from directly behind her she startled. Glancing behind she glimpsed the giant eye gazing at them from outside. What was going on in this bank? Amaterasu watched Groose follow suit, jumping out of the window with a prayer. Her nose twitched. Head returning back to the unsettling glitch drawing ever nearer. While she considered a tingle in her paws rose. The sensation made the decision for her; she didn't want to end up like the coins or Blonic. With a huff she spun around and did as her companions: jumped out the window. Though she aimed to be off to the side so as to not create a tangled dog pile should she and Groose find themselves also enlarged like Twintelle directly out the window.

As soon as Groose fell out of the window he would land on the soft ground...Which was very soft, so soft in fact that Groose wouldn't of gotten hurt when he fell. It would feel like he would of fell on a bed or pillow. If he looked around he would see a crack on the ground which if he messed around with it, could cause something to happen.

(To make the crack bigger, roll a Strength 15.)

Meanwhile Amaterasu would grow the same size as Twintelle, who was currently looking down at the Life Sphere for someone, anyone to help her and the sun goddess with the size problem, only to find out that too her shock, there was nobody in the Life Sphere like the bank. Twintelle, Ammy and Groose were now the only residents left in the Life Sphere. "Hello, anyone, anyone at all!?" Twintelle bend down at Brightwing Lane to see if anyone was in there apartments, there wasn't anyone there either as Twintelle turned back to her partner, as she couldn't see Groose due to her size. Fortunately she wasn't going to move in her spot in fear of stepping on him.




"And what is this strange music playing?"



Uh oh...

"This is strange, everyone's gone. what do you think happen---Ow!" Twintelle was hit at the side of her head by a giant letter, it was a giant...

T

Twintelle grabbed the giant T and looked up, she gasped as she saw something in the sky. "Look, isn't that the mission sign ups I posted awhile ago?" Twintelle said to Amaterasu, pointing up to the giant piece of paper at the sky of the mission to the bank. Twintelle tried to remove the paper from the sky using her hair, but only resulted in her hitting the sub objective instead.

And causing the words "BLOCK" to fall towards her and Amaterasu. "Lookout!" Twintelle warned Ammy as she tried to move out of the way, punching and breaking the sun on Li and quickly turning the nice day at the Life Sphere into night. Groose should also be careful as well as he could easily be crushed by the giant letters.

"Whoops."

(Roll a 13 in DEX to dodge the falling words from the mission page, failure will result in 13% damage!)

|Ez1CriSp_1d20+1(Ouch!)

Twintelle was hit by every single word that fell on her as she and Amaterasu would shrink down to normal size near Groose and be in front of the bank. Twintelle looked around at the now darkened streets of the empty Life Sphere as she soon saw someone phasing from the ground. "Look, there's someone coming out of the ground. Maybe she can tell us where everyone is!" Twintelle pointed to the girl who revealed herself to be...



A confused Shizuka.

"What? How am I?" Shizuka wanted answers as to where she is...Wasn't she...Somewhere else before? Her memory was a blank as Twintelle walked towards her, ignoring the crack on the ground.

(The Sub Objective is now revealed, go onto the sign up page to see what it is!)

Especially with all the other chaos that was going on, Groose was not sure what awaited him when he jumped out the window in reckless endeavour to save Twintelle. He closed his eyes and braced, preparing at least for the most sensible consequence of jumping out a window.
But much to his surprise, Groose didn’t land on hard ground. But very soft ground. Unfamiliarly soft ground. The likes of which he never landed on before. And living in the sky, he’s landed a lot of things in his time. Not having the sense to just open his eyes yet, he felt around the ground to see if he could indeed recognize the texture of the floor he just landed on. Surely enough, his exploration lead him to a crack.
And instead of doing the sensible thing and avoiding cracks on the ground…

She sighed with relief. Everyone seemed okay and no one was squished when her four paws padded down onto the concrete streets of Li. Though, there was something else wrong. Twintelle had noticed as well that outside of the bank was quiet and empty; no one else in sight. Oblivious to the curiosities of Groose's discovery, Ammy carefully dipped her head down around one of the other buildings to try and get a better look at the ground but still nothing. She eyed some windows of the structures, each one seeming like a toy model of the Li they knew, but there was no sign of any other living person around. The wolf grumbled, quickly ceasing when she heard the echo throughout the sphere and thinking about their smaller companion. The sun goddess turned her attention down to the striking red man, now just an ant to herself and Twintelle. Why hadn't he enlarged with them?

While Amaterasu pondered the mysteries of the situation Twintelle was assaulted by the letter T. The sudden strike brought the lupine to attention, body going rigid as she scanned the area for the culprit. Surely a letter couldn't just fly out of nowhere. Although, coins weren't usually animate objects either. Ears back, the wolf followed the movie star's indication upward to spot the array of words above them. That certainly wasn't the sky... had they been put into some sort of dream world? Nothing was making any sense, and this certainly wouldn't be the first time she'd found herself at the mercy of someone's subconscious during a mission. Had Blonic done something to them? That smell from earlier, it refreshed in her nostrils as she remembered walking into the bank.

Dodge: i5vqHhRHp_1d20+2
Just as she was considering upping her caution proceeding through this bizarre alternate world the sky began falling. With half a gasp she returned her attention to the ground, fussing over how to dodge whilst avoiding trampling over Groose in the process. There was only one way: take to the rooftops. With a swift hop Amaterasu paced along the various flat topped buildings like stepping stones in a pond. Being so large it wasn't too hard to cover a large distance and avoid the falling letters, however, there then posed a new problem: she started shrinking! Having dodged a ways out of the way when she noticed her height diminishing she made a quick turn back toward her allies so as to not be streets away when she shrunk back to normal size. Thankfully her lunge back toward the group put her just down the road in sight of the other two, leaving it to a simple mad dash to be back by their side. As she approached though it seemed Twintelle and Groose had managed to find someone else in this empty Li.

The first thing she did upon trotting up to the group was investigate this newcomer. The last sentient things they'd encountered had been odd and threatening, so it stood to reason that they shouldn't just trust this girl willy nilly. She didn't look suspicious though, if anything she appeared just as confused as the party was, and her scent was calm though laced with something spicy. There weren't any immediate red flags. Ammy flared her nose and gave a couple uncertain barks, watching Shizuka carefully.

Twintelle walked up to Shizuka in the dark streets. "Uhh, hello, do you know where everyone is!?" She said happily to Shizuka, who slowly turned and looked at her and Ammy. Since Groose was still busy focusing on the mysterious crack on the ground, Shizuka looked at the two confused. "Wait..." She put her heads together...Before realising. "I'm not supposed to be here...Where's Pronteo? and Rosalyn...I need to warn her, something bad is going to happen to her!" Shizuka said emotionless. She bent down to pet Ammy. "Pronteo? Maybe this Pronteo guy is with everyone else on LI, wherever they are. Were trying to find them, can you help u---Huh?" Twintelle noticed something on Shizuka's arm...It was a cut. A green cut on Shizuka's arm for some reason, maybe if Amaterasu poked around with it something might happen to the scar...And Shizuka.

As for the crack on the ground, upon inspecting it. Groose would find the hole cracking open some more, revealing the inside of it. And inside...Was...Well.




Something.

The crack began to open some more and the words and numbers from the cracked hole began to move out into the life sphere, with everything it touched glitching up. The odd thing was slowly moving towards Groose, intending to grab him so he can be glitched too. While Twintelle, Shizuka and Ammy were a bit far from the cracked open hole...The glitched entity will eventually come to them as well, however it is best for Groose to...

Run.

Groose figured he dug far enough to warrant a peek at what he was digging into. He screamed, but not for the reasons he was hoping to.
“That is Not the kind of crack I was expecting!” Groose freaked as he scooted back away from crack. “What’s with all the Math?” He blubbered completely confused as if never having seen anything like it before. Especially not the glitch he saw in the bank less than a minute ago.

He may as well have forgotten it because this was clearly math times worse. This time it was reaching out to grab him.
“No! I got into the Knight Academy to get away from you!” Groose hollered as he did what knights do best: Run Away!

Keen onyx eyes scanned the school girl up and down. More intently so when she made a move. Arm reaching down to pet the wolf with calculated motions. Ammy held back a suspicious grumble as she observed and waited. Then she noticed it. The green cut slashed across Shizuka's arm. Amaterasu immediately slunk away from the incoming pet, mouth curling back to bare fangs as she recalled a similar thing happening in a pigmask facility. A parasitic doppelganger had taken the form of Paula, playing off of memories until it had gained strength enough to get rid of useless connections. The wolf snarled, hoping to draw the entity's attention away from Twintelle, and as she did she maneuvered the hovering disk on her back forward.

It wasn't an attack per se, as the sun goddess wasn't aiming to bash or strike Shizuka directly. No. She wanted to attend to that strange blemish, and the only way she had to do so simultaneously with testing the oddity was to apply fire. Divine Retribution flared to life, licking the edges of the mirror as Amaterasu made to press the flames against Shizuka's arm as if cauterizing a wound. She didn't expect much good to come of this. Everything else the trio had interacted with had turned into hungry destructive masses; as Groose was continuing to experience. Perhaps this girl would be no different. Perhaps she, too, was just a pawn in this digital game being played.

Shizuka watched as the flames touched her green scar. She gasped before sighing. "You just had to check out my wound didn't you wolf?" She growled at Amaterasu, Twintelle soon noticed the wound. "Is that your wound? It's like some alien wound from a sci-fi movie...Wait are you a humanoid alien?" She asked Shizuka, before noticing that the girl was starting to glitch out upon the flame touching her arm.





Eventually she became so distorted that she was no longer noticeable. "SEVEN SEVEN EIGHT EIGHT ERROR ERROR FORCE SHUTDOWN ON "Shizuka Moroboshi" REQUIRED SHUT DOWN IN 10 SECONDS, 5 SECONDS, FOUR, Three, T---The distorted being was quickly interrupted as Twintelle jumped in the air and stylishly delivered a quick punch towards the being. It was so hard that she was launched out of the Life Sphere as Twintelle landed back down to Amaterasu. "Now she won't turn in a glitched monster and attack us. At least for awhile." Twintelle turned to see Groose running away from...The Life Sphere glitching itself. Twintelle back away. "Groose, what happened!?" She asked the man as a door to the trio's right began to open.



It was to a warehouse.

"Quick, in here, it could protect us from the glitch!" She told Groose and Ammy as she ran into the warehouse for her safety.

As music began to play again, this time it was of the distorted kind.




"I don't like this music." Twintelle said as she ran into the warehouse.

“I GOT NO IDEA!” Groose answered Twintelle’s giant voice “I honestly thought it was-” He began to stumble and that was no good. “-Nevermind.” He dismissed it as he regained his footing, joining Twintelle and Ammy in the safety of the warehouse.
“What’s going on? What was that? What’s that music? What is any of this???” Groose began to panic as the whole world outside the warehouse undid itself at the seams.

Ammy half snorted at the remark, pulling away from the annoyed Shizuka and giving a look as if to say, 'How could I not?'. The lupine wasn't even too surprised as she witnessed the transformation of yet another seemingly normal thing into another terrible glitched creature. Nose twitching, Amaterasu was about to do what Twintelle did to the glitch: a swift kick in the rear to send it flying. Though, with her animal body it'd be a little different but the intended effect ultimately the same. The sun goddess barked in agreement with their movie star, tail swishing a couple times back and forth with her lightened mood. Until she noticed what was behind Groose. She took her eyes off him for one minute and now the entirety of the landscape was morphing into dead pixels and oddities.

There was no time to dwell on the situation though. The white wolf's attention snapping to the loud noise of a door swinging open off to their side. She nearly jumped. Instinctively twisting to face the possible threat. Luckily the only thing her eyes set upon was a darkened, but empty, doorway into shelter. Twintelle urged the group to flee inside, Groose taking not even a second to comply. Ammy hesitated, glancing toward the spreading corruption eating up everything in its path. Could the warehouse really protect them from something like that? She grumbled, and followed suit.

Ominous distorted horror music twanged in the far reaches of the building, echoing over and over like the inside of a warped bell. Her fur immediately stood on end as a cold touched her spine. She sniffed the area, trying to pick up any peculiar scents, flicked her ears forward and sideways, trying to note any pricks of sound signalling the motion of something other than themselves. The music made it difficult. Always an ill sounding tone distracting her focus caused by the lack of reasonable tune. Still, this strange digital Li they'd somehow found themselves in hadn't been a welcoming place so caution was needed even at the risk of taking a moment of time to stop fleeing the glitches eating away at their surroundings. Should she find anything she'd try to give a bark of warning to her allies so they weren't caught by surprise. Hopefully it'd be enough should anything jump out with harmful intent.

As soon as Groose and Ammy made it into the warehouse, Twintelle slammed it's door shut with her hair and looked around for something she could use to block the door in case it glitches out. She noticed some boxes nearby and grabbed them before putting them in front of the door, blocking it as she backed away and sighed, before looking back at Groose, Amaterasu and...Another girl, who was Rosalyn Hollotus.



"It's great that you three are ok." She said cheerfully, Twintelle walked towards Rosalyn, not trusting her in the slightest. "Who are you? And why are we the only four in the Life Sphere right now?" She asked as Rosalyn looked surprised. "What you don't know? There was an invasion and it kidnapped everyone on this planet to be made into slaves, glitch slaves. Including the starvia!" Rosalyn explained. Should anyone look outside they would find that all of LI, was gone...They were now floating in an endless dark void.

But there was a large club seen from a far.



Rosalyn then turned back and walked forward. "Of course, after what you three did to my best friend. I don't think your service here will do quite well. You three need to learn about what you've done." She held out a jar, containing a very glitched Shizuka.

"EVYWUEWU"

She looked at the three in anger but Twintelle tried to defend the group. "It's not our fault that girl outside acted weird because of the strange scar she had!" She pointed at the jar of Shizuka, Rosalyn simply raised her pea gun at the three, looking more angry then before.

As impressive as Twintelle barricading the door with just the power of her hair was, it wasn’t enough to make Groose feel safe. He continued the job of barricading the door with even more boxes, and barrels, and crates, and even rolling crates, and capsuls and even party balloons? W
“There. I think we’re safe now.” Groose panted, finally stopped to catch his breath now that there was nothing left in the room to use. Nothing left but himself, Twintelle, Amaterasu, and…

Groose screamed like a little girl at the sight of the little girl but soon stopped screaming like a little girl when he realized it was just a little girl.
“You startled me there.”
Too bad that wasn’t the last time he’d cower, since the sight of the glitched out Shizuka caused him to reel again, and scream like a little girl again when Rosalyn pulled a weapon on him.

That changed upon getting a better look at the weapon. It was... just a pea shooter. A little girl armed with only a little pea shooter? Groose came out from behind Twintelle and bravely stood up to her.
“Aw look, little peppy’s gonna pop me with a pea!~” Groose cooed condescendingly. “How cute. Did you make it yourself, little lady?”

Ammy resisted growling at the young girl, Groose's screams doing enough to draw attention to their visitor. The other two had seen her fast enough after doing what they could to barricade the door, so the lupine moving into scanning Rosalyn over like she had done Shizuka. Their new friend sounded friendly enough, even provided a bit of insight to their situation. It was disturbing. Amaterasu wasn't sure what to do with the information as she mulled it over. How could it happen without their notice? Or, perhaps they did..? She thought back to entering the bank and the dizziness that had overwhelmed the group just then. Had they blacked out? Was that the abduction?

The wolf's ears laid back against her head as he considered the disturbing possibilities. Was she a glitch too? She didn't feel any different, but how would she know? It seemed unlikely as she had absolutely no task assigned to her that she could think of, and if what Rosalyn said was true then it seemed unlikely their abductors would allow one of their slave workers to simply run amuck.

So far any of their attempts to fight off a glitch slave had failed. Even simply touching them with effectively candle fire ended poorly as the deformed Shizuka proved... So... Perhaps it would be worth the effort to try and keep Rosalyn calm; glitch or not. Unfortunately the sun goddess had little in the way of communicating verbally beyond whines and barks, and her muted restorative powers were unlikely to bring back Rosalyn's friend to 'normal'. Her allies conversed with the young girl, now pointing some sort of weapon at them. Despite Twintelle's attempt at calming the situation Rosalyn continued to squint her face in anger; and Groose wasn't helping. Ammy had to think fast, do something to show that the group meant no irreparable harm and were just confused and in need of help. Thus, following Groose's insult the canine reeled her neck around and nipped his fingers with a gruff rumble of her throat. She then turned back to face Rosalyn and gave her best cutesy puppy dog eyes in hopes of getting across an apology. Whether it was enough she couldn't know, she'd just have to be prepared for the worst.
