Episode 14: not so spooky
The night sky is lit up by the moonlight. The dark silhouette of a dog like Mixel stands on top of a rock. He sits on the ground and raises his head high. "Awwoooooo!" It pans down to Flain's house. Inside shows Magnifo and Vulk siting on the couch together. "Awwoooooo!" Vulk looks unamused and sighs. "Does Wiswuz always have to do this at this time of the year?" Magnifo pulls Vulk close with a one handed hug. "It's about the spirit of the season, Vulk. Let him do his thing. Unless you're telling me the howls make you scaaaaared?" Vulk rolls his eyes and scoff. "Oh please. I've been through worse. Like seeing the food I want have the expiration date be literally the next day." Magnifo's eyes were wide in shock. "O-oh... That is bad..." "Yo, dudes!" Flain walks in with Fraze and Pam Pam holding Trick-or-Mix bags. "I'll be taking the little dudes out for Trick-or-Mixing." Magnifo looks back at Flain, and has playful tears in his eyes. "B-but movie night..." "It's cool, man. Zorch will come by to watch some stuff... Uh maybe?" Magnifo whimpers a little. That's when Vulk holds onto Magnifo's claws. "Well, we can watch them... Just the two of us... Unless you're scaaaaared?" "W-wha? I'm not! We'll watch ALL of the scary stuff!" Flain chuckles to himself, then looks at his kids. "Good to know that they'll fine by themselves. Anything you two wanna say before we head out?" “We’ll still be there to watch movies it’ll just be later. I think?” -of course! But I bet I can get more candy than you Fraze!- “not this time.” -you’re on!!- Flain smiles and puts his arms around both of our shoulders. “Haha little dudes this isn’t a competition. Besides I totally would get the most.” The 3 of us pause till Pam and I squint our eyes at dad then in unison “you’re on!” “That so? Beat you outside!” Dad dashes outside with us trying to keep up from behind with our tiny legs trying too. “Uh should we go with them hun?” Vulk looks over with unexpected smile. “No let them have their bond time they really need it now more than ever.” Cutting away our way outside but it seemed mostly quiet. “Is me or I haven’t really been seeing much mixels around recently?” “Maybe they’re in their houses?” A voice calls out from behind Flurr flies over land down next to us. “Flurr? Why are you here?” “Just to make sure you guys go to the right houses…” “right houses?” “Uh Flain there’s something I need to talk to you about. But later. The kids and you deserve a really good night!” “I did have good time dude with Trisiti yesterday haha.” Flurr looks down “I wish were me” Flain looks at Flurr with a confused expression. "What do you mean by that? Geez you're acting weirder than usual, dude." "Ooooh, don't worry about that! I'll just make sure to make things as good as I can for you!" "Uh, right. Sure dude." Flain just shrugs and lets Flurr lead the way. Meanwhile... Zorch watches the group in the distance. "Hehehehh. This is gonna be so perfect!" "Whaaaat would beeee?" Lunk stands next to him, with an innocent smile. "Oh nothing, hun... Except for some high adrenaline, heart stopping, self wetting, scary fun!" "Yeaaaah. I do like getting candy." "No dum- Errr, Lunk! I'm talking actual scary, man! Just imagine their funny scared look. And how embarrassing it'll be to make them wet themselves in fear, heheheh!" Lunk slightly tilts his head, in confusion. "But I thought you like wetting tho?" "N-no! I mean I do. But this is for a different purpose!" Lunk holds on to Zorch's claws. "Do you really think bringing fear to someone will give them, or you happiness?" Zorch takes a moment to think about it. He looks at Lunk, seeming like he was really learning something. "Yeah!" He dashes off. Leaving Lunk there with an unamused expression. Zorch runs behind a rock, and sees Flain's group walking toward his direction. "Heheh. They're completely unaware. This is almost too easy.” Just when Zorch was about to jump out, he feels something slimy hold onto his shoulders. He twitches then turns around to see Torts’ slimy arms on him. "I like hiding behind rocks too." "EEEYYAAAAAA!!" Flain stops after hearing someone yell. "Who was that?" Flurr shrugs. "Oh who knows. It is the scary time of the year. So of course there will be screams to fit the mood!" Flain closes his eyes to think. Then he also shrugs. "Eh, sounds legit to me." They continue on like nothing happened. Looking around to try to see where the noise came from. “Sreams sorta seem unnecessary though. “ -well I think it’s cool.- “you think everything is cool.” -no I don’t- “example?” -Lunk being slow.- “fair.” Flurr smiles at the amusement. “First to!.. .. Electroids!” On our way over to the electroids electric building. Dad clears his throat giving a knock. “Yooo trick or mix!” There’s abit of silence until Teslo opens the door with confetti “welcome welcome one and all! Come on in Flain! There’s plenty treats to choose from! But there’s plnty make yourself home Flain. dont take to many.” They all head inside and see bowls filled with different kinds of treats. Pam Pam pretty much pours the whole bowl into his bag. -Heheh, I'm gonna win for sure now.- Just as he was about to walk away, Flain steps in front of him with his arms crossed. The look was all that was needed to make Pam put most of it back. -Bleh, you're no fun.- Volectro walks in with a pile of Rock Pops. "I've got some *zaaaap* taaaasty Rock Pops here!" He hands a few to everyone. Once there's just one left, he stares at it, and looks a bit sad. "I might not be able to make more of these for a while. And all because Shuff... *Zaaap* Shuff he..." Zaptor slides up in front. "My turn, my turn! Have the best treat anyone can hope for!" He dumps a few Hamlogna Sandwiches in everyone's bags. Flain didn't look convinced. "Uh, dude? This is not a treat." Zaptor completely changes his mood. He leans close to Flain, and looks very menacing. "You're lucky You're even getting them from me and being alive. Because any Mixel or Nixel that separates me from my sandwiches, would have their dicks zapped with over 100,000 volts of electricity... *Zaaaap* Ya, so they're tasty~" Flain just takes a few steps back and nods. Teslo walks up to Flain. "It's okay, Flain. That's just Zaptor's way of saying he trusts you. In fact we all do." "Especially me!" Flurr adds in. "Speaking of, we should go to my tribe next! Your friendly neighbor Frosticon Mixel will guide you through thick and thin!" "Sure, lead the way, Flurr." Flurr flies up, beaming with excitement. "Really? You trust me that much!? Oh my gosh yessssss! Go Flurr! Go Flurr!" Flain watched Flurr celebrate in the air, mostly with an unamused look. But also a bit of confusion too. He grabs Flurr's balls, immediately getting his attention. "Dude, chill." "Haha! right, right. This way haha.." Dad let's go of Flurr and he begins to fly out the room with us following behind. Flurr would sometimes lead the way then he would swirl around every so often with the biggest smile having a good look at us filled with joy. But fall has always been my favourite season little more on the chilly side and plants and trees mostly dying. I bet though the only place that hasn't been effected by the weather is the frosticons. with the climate still mostly looking the same. Before we could even knock the door swings open with Slumbo waiting on the inside. "Welcome Flain. Hope you guys been doing alright." "Sup, dude. Yeah, things has been going pretty cool. Oh right, Trick-or-Mix!" Slumbo brings up a plate of Bar-B-Cubes, and Frostanas. He starts giving them out to everyone. Meanwhile... Zorch stands on top of a big hill, looking down at Flain's group. "Heheheh! Now I've got them! I'll roll up a bunch of snow off the ground. Then watch it grow and grow. As soon as they see how big that snow is, and heading straight for them. They'll totally piss themselves! I just need something to help start it up..." Torts walks up next to Zorch. "Hi, friend! You have my slime on you. So now we're bonded." "N-no way man! That wasn't-" Zorch starts to sweat and steps back. He trips and starts to roll down the hill. His body gets fully covered in snow. The snowball grows bigger and bigger. It looks like it's heading straight for Flain's group, with them completely unaware... Then it passes right by them. Everyone looks behind them only after nothing is there. Then they look back forward for their treats. The only Mixel that saw it was Slumbo, but he just didn't care. Torts watched everything from atop the hill. "Kayo. I'll see you later." He happily skips away. Just then, Slumbo gave the last treat he has. "There you go. That's everything. Can I go now?" "But Slumbo!" Flurr objects. "You gotta keep our land protected when I'm not around!" "Isn't that Slippery's job? He always stays in the Frosticon's Lair." "I mean yeaaaaah. But it would be really nice if you stayed thooo. At least keep my chair warm?" Slumbo looked more interested for once. "Yooo I get to sleep on the leader chair? Alright. You guys have a good one. Oh, and Flain? Tell Lunk he's doing a good thing. Alright, peace." Slumbo heads back inside before anyone could really react. Flurr sighs. "Well not the exact way I wanted that to go, but that still works for me, haha. Let's go to the Spikels! I'm pretty sure they're safe to go to." "Safe?" Flain asks. But Flurr frantically flaps his wings. "D-don't worry about it. Today is just fun stuff!" Flurr once again leads the way over over to the spikels whom just rembering they don’t exactly have a house so how is that going to work with.. oh. Looking over you could see Footi and Hoogi behind a table blinking off sync with rows of candy in front of them with Scorpi resting in the middle of the table. When I got closer Scorpi must have noticed my scent for he instantly woke up scratching at his ears as he made his way over to me now clinging onto me. “Hehe missed you too buddy.” Footi danced and twirled ballerina as was about to pat my head but realised that I had flames on my head “He always tends to do that when you’re around he must rrrrreally love you! Do you plan to marry?” Footi stretches to look like as if he was making a heart shape while Hoogi tries to copy. Flain unimpressed or annoyed of the thought maybe? I’m not really sure what they are talking about “who’s marry?” “It’s nothing little dude. That’s not happening. Not while I’m around. Don’t think I don’t see you Pam. TAKE ONE!” Flain pulls Scorpi off of me as he rushed over to Pam Pam. Snatching some of candy he had. -but dad- “no little dude. Be polite, besides we’ll get more elsewhere” Flurr chimes in. “Ya gotta make sure the other mixels get some too.” Footi still oblivious as always only smiles. “Oh so very protective. But no one can deny love! Speaking of. Fraze Shuff came here by himself earlier today. But he wasn’t wanting candy? Like it seemed like he was looking for something? Oh well la la la” Footi skips off screen as I sat and pondered. Shuff alone?? Why would he be alone? And was looking for something? Should I try to look for it? Or was he looking for someone? I’m pretty confused I should ask dad about it. “Dad. Shuff was-” “ahh would you look at the time! Up next the Wiztastics!” Flurr interrupts. “Oh right. It does get more dangerous later into the night so ya we do need to step up. We’ll talk later Fraze.” “But.-” “Don’t worry I won’t forget ok?” “Ok” They all walk towards the Wiztastic's lair. The night sky turns a bit more purplish, showing this is this lair's natural colour. They reach a big tent with lots of signs pointing towards it. Once they reach the entrance, a puff of smoke fills the air. Once that clears up, Mesmo stands there all by himself. "Hey." Flurr flies around a bit, searching for someone. "Hey uhhh. Isn't there supposed to be a tall guy here? And another dog like Mixel?" "Magnifo's with Flain." Mesmo looks at Flain with just his eyes, then back straight forward. "Oh, Flain's here. But no Magnifo... Maybe he died." That made Fraze and Pam look at bit sad. Flain took notice and hugs the both of them. Then Flain gave Mesmo a mean look. "Dude! He ain't dead! Don't say stuff like that in front of them. Why's that the first thing you guess?" Mesmo just shrugs. "It was just one guess. Knowing that guy he gets himself into a lot of weird things. Like, he could also be trapped in some different dimension due to a magic screw up... True story." That made Flain look more confused. Then he shakes his head. "He's just chilling at my house. Watching movies with Vulk." "Ah, that's good... Anyway Wizwuz is pretending to be a Weremixel. Kinda jealous, not gonna lie." That only brought more questions to Flain. But, he just went along with it. "Sure, dude. You got any candy?" "Duh. I need a volunteer though." Before Flain could say anything, Flurr steps forward. "I'll do it! Anything to help out however I can!" That moment made something click in Flain's mind. How quick Flurr just goes for that, and his consistent urge to help. Flain nods and smiles. "Okay, dude. Go for it." "Yaaaay!" "If you die though that's on you." "Y-yaay??" Flurr drops to the ground, and stands next to Mesmo. Mesmo waves both of his wings. "As you can see. Nothing in these wings... But if I do this..." Mesmo reaches his wing behind Flurr's dick. "Eeep! T-that tickles!" Mesmo then pulls his wing back, with it now holding a gold coin. He then unwraps it, showing that it's actually a chocoin. This made Fraze start to clap. But Pam wasn't as impressed. -That's just one chocoin though.- "Kay. Watch this." Mesmo puts both wings behind Flurr's dick, and pulls out a pile of chocoins. -Yeah! Now we're talking!- Mesmo starts to give out the candy to the Mixels. Flurr sits down on his butt. "Whew. Those Chocoins coming out like that made it seem like I ca-" Flain's deathly stare interrupts Flurr. He gulps and sweats a lot. "Uuuuh, y'know just used the bathroom a lot. Just a natural part of life, haha... h-haaah... O-okay I think we're done here. Let's go home~ No other tribes to meet, haha." Meanwhile while we were making our way back home Zorch watch us from afar. “Haha this one has to work! When they press down on the button I secretly hide in the grass passed the park far ahead they for sure be in for a shocking surprise by shaking the dummies manneqixel CLAW ! Uh Flain anyway. He would totally kill me bring me back then killer again if I hurt the kids.” Zorch shakes his head then goes back to hiding behind a rock with the most mischievous smile. “Zorrcccch! Where do you keeep going? Can we just-” lunk’s foot presses down on the hidden button activating the prop dummy to show up right in front of him with his arm extending out. “Ahhhhh !.. ooh and claw shake? This is the sweetest thing Zorch has ever done for me don’t mind if I do!” Zorch looks over with his eyes now dilated as he saw his husband about to posssibly get electrocuted. “Lunkkkkk! Wait no!” Zorch rain so fast hitting Lunk hard onto the ground knocking over the dummy right on top of Zorch with the dummies claws landing right on Zorch’s balls electrocuting it *zapppp zapp* “Ahhhhhhh!” “Oh hun! You saveeed me thank you! Can’t touch you tho or I’ll get electrocuted too.” *zapp zappp* “guhhhh ughhh!” We walk by seeing Lunk very happy while Zorch had some dummy ontop of him. -cool dummy- Flurr blushes while Flain covers both our eyes. “Yooo Zorch not here dude! Got a lot nerves trying out your fantasy’s stuff here!” Flain quickly rushes us before we could truly see what happened to brother Zorch. Zorch deeply sighs and gets up. "Y'know what? Fine. I'll just accept this night as just movie night. C'mon, love." "Awww. You're so sweeEEAAAAA" Zorch dashes past everyone with Lunk in his claws. It cuts back to Magnifo and Vulk watching a scary movie. There was a sentient microphone telling very scary stories. So scary that Magnifo needed to hide behind Vulk. Soon enough, Zorch comes into the room. "Sup dudes. The party has arrived." Vulk looks back, very unamused. "Geez, Zorch. I thought you were supposed to be the fast one. We're already near the end of this movie." "Eh, I got busy." Zorch puts Lunk down and sits right in-between Magnifo and Vulk. "Umm, excuse me?" Vulk asks. As he pokes Zorch. "Could you maybe sit in a diff-" "Shhh! I'm trying to catch up with the movie." As he said that, a big slime creature comes on screen. His ooze covering anything he touches. This makes Zorch feel a bit uneasy. "S-slime? Goo? No. NOO! You're not a part of me man!" Zorch wets himself at the sight and runs out the door. Everyone inside looked very confused. Vulk looks back at the tv. "I don't see what's the deal with him. That slime is one of the good guys. Probably the least scary part of the movie..." The slime in the movie wiggles his body. "Be my frieeend~"
Neh Edt
