Episode 10: What Could Happen
Another day in the Infernites Lair. This time the camera pans down to a big building. Inside there's Vulk, happily walking down a long hallway. That's when Tentro walks by and waves one of his tentacles. "Hiya, Vulk! Be sure to stay on tiiiyaiyaiyaaaime." "Of course. I'm always on time." Seismo walks by, and waves at Vulk. "Good day to you." "Hehee. Good day to you too, Seismo!" Torts runs by, flapping his arms around. "Yay, yaaaay! I love working 20 hours a day!" Torts runs off, leaving Vulk there with a confused look. "O-oh uh... Have fun?" Vulk shrugs and gets back to his happy walk. He heads towards the elevator. Right as the door opens, Chomly runs past Vulk, and steps in the elevator. "Come on, come on! Before the door closes!" Vulk walks in right next to him. "Now, now. There's no need to rush. We'll all get to our jobs in time." Vulk puts one hand on his chest and looks really smug. "Especially me. IIII'm early~" Gobba shows up behind Vulk. "Hi." "Aaaieee!" It surprised Vulk so much that he jumps into Chomly's arms. Gobba continues talking, completely unphased. "What about Balk's birthday party? We can't be late for that! Think of all of the food... Mmmmm~" Gobba drools a little. Chomly's still holding Vulk. He and Vulk look at each other, then back at Gobba. Then Vulk with a concerned look speaks "Gobba. That was 10 years ago." Gobba gives a wide eye stare. As if he just learned a massive fact. Then he goes back to smiling. "Oh. It felt like 10 minutes to me, heheheh." Chomly finally puts Vulk down. Just as things were calming down. They all heard someone yell "Hey, guys! wait for me!" It was Magnifo, dashing towards the elevator. Chomly and Gobba were pretty chill, but Vulk looked surprised, and subtly presses the button to close the door. He presses the button over and over, but the doors just won't shut. Then Magnifo trips on literally nothing, and falls right on top of Vulk. The doors finally close, with Magnifo unintentionally looking like he's got Vulk pinned down. "Oh. Hi buddy!" Vulk was looking very unamused. "Can you get off now?" "Ah! Right, right!" Magnifo helps Vulk up. Then he nudges Vulk's shoulder. "But, hey. That's not the worse thing we've been through, right? Haha!" Vulk looks away, towards the ground. "Y-yeah haha..." The four Mixels stand there, awkwardly waiting for the elevator to start moving. Gobba full of excitement jumps up and down with the amount of mixels that were all around in this elavator all at once "Yes! Yes Yes! More!" Chomly screams "Uh Chomly the elvator is closed." "Oh... Right.. High five?" Before Vulk could even give off a high five Magnifo extends is arms cartoonishly stealing the high five instead. "Ya wahooo Yes yes yes!" Vulk only looked to Magnifo with an unamused look. "WHAT? I thought he was talking to me?" "You're literally the furest away from him Magnifo." The two both stare at each other with Magnifo only looking down at Vulk with only his eyes while Vulk looked up with his frustrion only growing. Chomly oblivous asks "More?" Before Vulk could even get a chance to turn around Magnifo still staying in the same postion and still looking down at Vulk only extending his hand to high five Chomly once again. Starting to sweat. "Uhhh I thought you were busy so I high fived for you." "Busy with WHAT!?" "Dunno that's the vibe I got." "dhdkhkhx whatever." Vulk now paying attention to Gobba jumps tries to stop him from jumping. "Stop you could mess up the elvator by doing that!" Magnifo full of confidence snarks, "Don't worry elevators are very safe and sturdy plus with my magic what could possibly go wrong?" Gobba adds on. "Oh yeah! There were tons of Mixels on this elevator all at once. And it worked just fine!" Just as he says that, the elevator shakes a bit. Everyone hears it power down, and stares at each other. Gobba looks around, really confused. "Oooor was that the other elevator?" "AAAAH!" Chomly screams. "Stuck in an elevator with limited air? It's survival to the fittest!" He leans onto the corner of the elevator "The air over here is mine!" Vulk sits down, curled up into a ball. "The real problem is I might be late for work. My perfect record, gone. Just like that..." Magnifo smirks and does a little pose. "Have you forgotten who you're with? All I need is a quick magic spell and-" "No!" Vulk gets up, looking angry at Magnifo. "The last thing we need is the potential of this situation becoming worse!" Magnifo brushes off that comment with a smile. "Oh, Vulk. You know I've gotten much better than before. Don't you trust me?" "I just... think we should wait before going for something that drastic. Maybe someone will come and fix the elevator." Magnifo closes his eye, and scratches his chin. "Hmm... Fine. We'll see where this'll go. But, remember! You can always count on Magnifo! The spectacular magician!" Vulk doesn't say much back. Gobba starts to bite on the walls, but Vulk quickly grabs him. "Gobba, no! Biting a hole in the elevator would absolutely make things worse!" "Aww. But I wanna snack! Or some meat! Any sort of meat is good for meeee~" Gobba, very obviously looks down at Vulk's crotch. Vulk blushes really hard and covers himself. "G-Gobba!? What's gotten into you?" Chomly, still in his corner speaks up. "Yeaaah, he gets like that whenever he's bored. Or not eating something. He's very respectful though." Gobba jumps towards Vulk, aiming for his nuts. "Gimmie that cock!" Vulk moves away going to different sides of the elevator. The two Mixels run around for a second. Each time they get near Chomly's corner he hisses. "No! Get your own air!" Vulk keeps Gobba pushed back, while leaning against the wall. "Chomly! You said he was respectful!" "Oh, I meant respectful as in pretty good once he gets started. Nah, he's always after our nuts like that." Magnifo steps in between Vulk and Gobba. "Don't worry, buddy. I'll take the hit. You want nuts, small guy? Then have some spectacular ones right here!" Gobba looks to Magnifo's crotch, unamused. "Pass. I want red dick!" Magnifo has a playful crying look on him. "W-wha? Is it not big enough?" This got a good chuckle out of Vulk. Then Vulk has a lightbulb to appear over his head. "Actually, I think I have something that'll help, Gobba." He pulls out a bunch of sticks and gives it to Gobba. "There. You can chew on these to keep you busy. Don't worry that's just a few extra I had from the Festival." Gobba looks at the pile of sticks and nods. "Eh, good enough." He sits down, idly chewing on the sticks. Magnifo sighs. "Well, glad that's taken care of. Good thinking, Vulk!" Vulk has one hand on his hip, and looks unamused. "Well, yeah. It's almost like I can do things myself without needing other Mixels to take the credit." Magnifo blankly stares at Vulk. "A-are you still upset about the high five? I can give you one if you want?" "*sigh.* Never mind." Vulk leans on the wall, while everything goes quiet yet again. Time continues to pass on by with the mixels still well trapped inside, Vulk thought about panicking for reality began to show its ugly dick, but he also knew if he were to fall apart it could scare everyone else or worse, Magnifo being even more full of himself from everyone being in despair. But how could help really come if no one really knows where they are? "Are you sure you don't need my help?" "You've done plenty." "I haven't really gotten to do anything really. you won't really let me." "Because last thing I need is to die in a elevator by YOU!" Everyone in the elevator grow quite and they're eyes go towards Vulk who was clearly filled with frustration. Magnifo sweats and looks confused. "Vulk? I-I thought we were cool. Zammie figured everything out..." Vulk crosses his arms and looks away. "It's not that simple, Magnifo. I do appreciate your help with the kids. But, even then. Your help could make things worse. You're not 100% reliable, Magnifo. Yes, you try your best, but in some situations the chance of failure could lead to someone dying. I... Don't like how easily you're willing to go for something that risky just to help..." As Magnifo listens he gets more and more upset. "Y'know, you're not 100% reliable either. Y'know when Flain called me after calling every other Mixel he knew to take care of his kids. Where were you when he needed you?" "T-that's not... It only happened once! And every other time I made sure to make time for him and his kids!" "Oh yeah. I'm sure you can go and help Flain now while stuck in an elevator." Vulk clenches his fist and stomps his foot on the ground. "Are you not listening? This is a one in million situation I'm in! Any other situation I'd be there for him! You know this doesn't count! You know I, in MOST situations would be the better, and safer option!" Magnifo looks down to the ground. "...Yeah, I know. I know you'd be more consistent. But most doesn't mean always. It's like using a fork or a spoon. Sure, a fork is more useful for multiple types of foods. And a spoon is only really used for one type of food. But, would you still use a fork to eat soup? Or anything mostly liquid? Maybe you could if you really worked with what you got. But the truth of the matter is a spoon would be better to use in that situation." Vulk scoffs. "The only difference is a spoon doesn't have a chance to make everyone's dicks be cut off or something..." Chomly and Gobba looks down at their crotches, thinking about that possibility. Just then a voice could be heard through the speaker in the elevator. "Howdy, howdy, howdy!" Vulk looks up at the speaker. "W-wait. Was that Glurt?" Lots of movement can be heard through the speaker. Then a different voice starts to speak. "Ya, yaa! That was Glurt. But now you're hearing Torts! I wanted my good boy to learn the wonders of work~" Glurt whimpers. Then Magnifo steps up. "Do you think you can get help so that we can get out of here?" "Yaaaa! Just hang tight while some other Mixels come to the rescue." The speaker shuts off, as Chomly shrugs. "Huh... Guess his work ethic was useful after all. I doubt anyone else would notice us for a long while without checking everything at all times." They all sat in silence once again. Magnifo and Vulk trying their best to not look at each other. Eventually the elevator doors gets electrocuted, and opens. Zaptor and Kraw stood on the other side, and Chomly jumps with joy. "Yes, yesssss! fresh air! See ya, losers. I got aaaaall this air to myself, hehehahaha!" Chomly runs off. Vulk wordlessly walks out of the elevator. Magnifo shakes Zaptor's claw. "Thanks so much! I don't know how I could repay you." Zaptor reaches a claw out, as if he's expecting to get something. "Oh you knooooow." Magnifo, with an unamused look, sighs and brings out his wand. He waves it around and makes a huge pile of Hamlogna Sandwiches appear. Zaptor, with hearts in his eyes dives into the pile, and starts eating. Kraw walks next to Magnifo, with a concerned look. "Are we ever going to talk about his addiction oooor?" Magnifo shrugs. "It's not hurting anyone so, I guess it's not that much of a problem? A-anyway I'm gonna... Yeah..." Magnifo walks in the same direction as Vulk. Still not talking with each other, or really acknowledging anything. Kraw watches to two walk off, and crosses his black tentacle like arms. "Guh. I swear. Things has gotten worse and worse. And it feels like I'm the only Mixel brave enough to say something about it..." Gobba, finishing up his last stick, slowly slides next to Kraw, with a wide smile. "Oh I know what'll cheer you up~" "Oh please. This is not the time nor the place to have a casual session." "No, silly. I mean this!" Gobba brings out a cubit with orange and brown colours. Kraw looks unamused. "Gobba. I'm much more sophisticated now. You really think something so simple could make anything better?" "Oh, okay!" Gobba starts walking away. Kraw looks away, trying to look as uninterested as possible. After a few seconds, Kraw has a light bulb above his head. He runs back to Gobba. "Gobba you're a genius!" "I am?" "No. But I'll take what I can get! If things keep changing, why not remind them of how good things were? And you are the key of doing that!" "Okay!" Kraw and Gobba runs up to Vulk and Magnifo, and stops right in front of them. Vulk and Magnifo looked pretty confused, while Kraw raises the cubit up. "It's time for everything to be fixed!" "The mixed kind of fix!" Gobba adds. Kraw and Gobba both touch the cubit. {Visually shows a spotlight above Kraw and Gobba, dancing, claw and tentacle together. They dance with such grace with a serious-ish look on their face. They then start to spin together. They spin so fast that it creates a large tornado} "MIX" As the smoke clears. The mix reveals to have a bunch of fruits on their hat, A long blue fluffy thing they swing around, and one half of a coconut covering their crotch, as a sort of makeshift jockstrap. "Boom chicka boom chicka boom, boom, boom!" The mix thrusts their hips a bit as they dance. Vulk and Magnifo stares at the mix, eyes filled with surprise. Vulk shakes his head, coming back to his senses. "Uh... I'm not sure how-" "Hehahaha! Wowie! Now that's something you don't see everyday." Vulk looks towards Magnifo. "What? You never saw them do this before? They used to do this every once in a while... Though the coconut on the crotch is new." Magnifo brings Vulk in with a one clawed hug. "I see so much potential in this! They'd be great for my magic shows. Or maybe we could try something like this ourselves?" "U-us? Really? Even after... W-well what happened earlier?" Magnifo looks directly at Vulk. "I know we're not... Always on the best of terms. But, that doesn't mean we can't enjoy what we like about each other. I still consider you a friend, Vulk. Even when you're totally jealous of my spectacularness." "Heh. And I still consider you a friend, Magnifo. Even when you make up words. And that you can absolutely ruin something with your magic. And that you could sometimes not catch on to something... And that-" "O-Okay, okay geez. I think we get the point." They both laugh a little then walk off, feeling a bit better with each other. Kraw and Gobba unmix. Kraw looks over to Gobba and sweats. "I'll admit. That went better than I expected." Gobba gets really close to Kraw. "Okay! Can we do the thing now?" "*Siiiiiiigh...* Okay." "Yaay!" Gobba grabs Kraw's tentacle and drags him off screen.
Neh Edt
