《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 6: Breaking the 4th Wall
Advertisement
The tribal leaders looked in shock as they realized Flurr sacrificed himself to save the rest of the tribal leaders. Flamzer started to shed a tear, and then he saw down and covered his eye with his two arms.
"Why'd Flain have to go?" Cried Flamzer.
Flamzer then started to cry, and then Teslo sniffed and hugged Flamzer, crying along with him.
"Those two mixels were true heroes, they sacrificed themse-e-elves just to save us." Said Kraw.
Gobba walked over to pat Teslo's back, but then he noticed all of the portals on every space of the walls in the dark blue hallway. Little did they know, they have already shattered the 4th wall.
"Could you please hold onto my special glow-in-the-dark sparkle stone ring?" Asked a blue ballerina girl with purple hair in one portal.
"Heya kids, it's that time again!" Exclaimed a purple fox wearing a red turtleneck sweater in another portal.
"Octo-Block, draw!" Shouted a magenta creature with many tentacles in yet another portal.
"..Where are we now?" Asked Gobba.
Teslo got up and looked around, cautiously. What kind of place is this, and what was that glitchy slime-like substance, anyway? The other three mixels followed, eyeing the various distinctive portals that they saw everywhere they looked.
"A one! A two! A one, two, three, four!" Shouted a childlike voice.
After the childlike voice was heard, guitar music began to play. Kraw looked to his right to see a human in a red beanie and a green dress playing what he thought was the guitar but was actually a ukulele next to a navy-colored cat.
(A/N: Credits to Glitchy Yoshi for helping me remember Peg plays the ukulele, not the guitar.)
"Peg plus cat!" Sang the human.
The cat scatted when the human sang. Kraw crawled closer to the portal, listening to the ukulele music. Meanwhile, the other three decided to stop as Teslo heard Kraw singing along. Gobba looked behind himself and ran towards Kraw.

"Hey, what'cha singing to?" Asked Gobba with a smile.
"AGH, NOTHING!" Shouted Kraw in embarrassment.
Gobba looked at the portal, spotting a human and a navy-colored cat.
"..Oh, this looks cool!" Said Gobba.
"Gobba, focus! We have lives to save." Teslo told Gobba.
"Yeah!" Agreed Flamzer.
Gobba and Kraw looked at Teslo and then the four mixels continued their exploration in this mysterious hallway.
"What was that?" Asked a voice.
Flamzer looked to his right to see a portal that included a blue girl with purple hair (except she wasn't a ballerina) and her friends facing off against the exact same glitchy goop he and many other mixels have faced.
"IT'S COMING! RUN!" Shouted the blue girl.
The other three mixels looked at the portal in curiosity, worry, and shock. Gobba tried to go into the portal, but Teslo was pulling him away due to him not wanting himself and the other mixels falling into the glitchy goop.
"COME ON, WE'VE GOTS TO SAVE THEM!" Shouted Gobba.
"But what if we fall into the glitchy stuff instead? We can't risk that!" Teslo told Gobba.
Flamzer and Kraw also started to pull Gobba away. However, the mixels suddenly heard the red beanie human from earlier yelp, and Gobba and Kraw ran after the portal. In the portal, the human and her cat saw a pile of glitchy goop, almost exactly like in the portal to the blue girl's home.
"AGH, NOT THOSE GUYS!" Shouted Kraw and Gobba.
Before Teslo and Flamzer could try and stop the other two mixels, Kraw and Gobba had already jumped into the portal, causing Teslo and Flamzer to face-palm themselves in unison. Speaking of which, Peg & Cat were backing away from the glitchy goop, a worried feeling stirring ahead. However, Peg & Cat suddenly heard far-away screaming. The screaming grew closer and closer and before the duo knew it, a giant orange crab and a brown who-knows-what grabbed them and jumped somewhere, except it was an invisible portal to a dark blue hallway that had two more creatures Peg & Cat had never met before.

"Hi, everybody!" Greeted Cat.
Gobba and Kraw put Peg & Cat down, but then the two mixels lined up in front of the duo.
"Ahem, I'm Gobba and this is Kraw, Flamzer, and Teslo!" Introduced Gobba.
"No, this ain't our home, we're here right now because ours is infected by the same goop you guys were facing!"
"..Okay. I'm Peg and this is Cat." Said Peg.
"So how did you get to our place?"
Kraw and Gobba suddenly got confused. They thought she would know how she got here from the millions of portals all around the group of kids' show characters.
"Uh, the portals?" Said Cat.
"Yeah, those things! I don't know why, but they're everywhere in here!" Exclaimed Gobba.
"Can I have a chance to talk to it?" Kraw whispered to Gobba.
"Oh, go ahead!" Gobba whispered back.
*Commercial Break*
"I know that you're wondering what we are. It's kinda obvious." Kraw told Peg.
"We're mixels and we-e-e're also kinda not supposed to be here, but we had to go here in order to survive. The glitchy goo-o-o-op took over Tentro, Flain, Flurr, and possibly even almo-o-ost every other mixel!"
Cut to Peg & Cat, looking worried at the things the mixels in front of them have faced due to the glitchy goop.
"I thought it was just evil slime!" Said Cat.
"Yeah, that's what I thought too at first!" Flamzer told Cat.
"However, there's much more to it than just corrupting OUR friends, what if it corrupts everyone in these portals? What if it corrupts the entire GALAXY!?"
Teslo grabbed Flamzer and started to shake him rapidly to try to calm the Infernite down.
"Flamzer, get a grip! That'll happen if we don't do something about it at all!" Teslo told Flamzer.
Cut to a close-up of Teslo.
"Besides, being nixed is similar to being corrupted by that.. glitchy substance." Continued Teslo.
Fade to a white void with a few colored silhouettes of background mixels and recognizable cartoon characters.
"When someone is nixed," Said Teslo, and then the colored silhouettes of background mixels turned gray.
"They're turned into mindless zombies and it can hurt the hearts of anyone who sees that.."
The colored silhouettes of recognizable characters turned black and glitchy.
"And the glitchy substance isn't any different from that characteristic. But with the power of a cubit,"
The gray silhouettes turned into a cubit pattern, and then back to their original colors.
"They can be cured almost instantly, although we don't actually know if it works like that the same way for the glitchy substance."
The scene fades back to a close-up of Teslo.
"It may be a hypothesis, but it's one that we may need in order to survive this apocalypse so we'll need to collect as many cubits as we can just in case." Said Teslo.
Cut back a medium shot of the group of cartoon characters.
"Salutations, sir!" Exclaimed a masculine voice.
The voice appeared so suddenly, it made Peg, Cat, Flamzer, and Gobba jump.
"May I please enter? I have some urgent information to communicate with my pal, Moony." Said the voice again.
