《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 18: Nixel, Nixel, Go Away
Advertisement
Cut to a medium shot of the orange nixels on the skyscraper.
"Hey, what's with those guys?" Questioned a katana-wielding orange mixel.
"Hmm. They call themselves Nixels." Said a snake-like orange mixel.
"Nixels? That name sounds familiar." The humanoid orange mixel said to himself.
The humanoid orange mixel forms an aura ball, which spreads out into the air. Various pictures of Nixels are shown as he slides through them.
"Ah, here it is, nixels. It seems we have met before." Said the humanoid orange mixel.
He stops at a picture of the Nindjas Max against King Nixel.
"King Nixel. Now what brings you to Mixopolis?" Said the humanoid orange mixel.
Cut back to a medium shot of the Glowkies, where we see Globert was attempting to listen onto the orange mixels.
"..They know King Nixel!" Gasped Globert.
"..Somehow."
The other two Glowkies now seem confused since Globert literally had no point in mentioning that the orange mixels knew King Nixel.
"What does that have to do with those guys?" Asked Vampos.
"Well, who knows King Nixel best? A nixel. Either that or someone working for a nixel." Guessed Globert.
"But if those orange nixels worked for King Nixel, then that could only mean they're.." Globert gasped again as he thought he solved his own theory.
"QUICK! WE HAVE TO STOP THOSE MIXELS BEFORE THEY DESTROY THIS PLACE!" Shouted Globert.
And now, Vampos and Boogly were even more confused. Weren't mixels usually good, not evil? Boogly suggested Globert that he should calm down, but Globert tells his tribemates that this is an emergency, and that the orange mixels are about to destroy the unknown city if the Glowkies don't do anything.
"Now come on, we have to go!" Said Globert.
Before the other two Glowkies could tell Globert that his theory is not actually true, Globert already headed off, so then the two decided to follow Globert since Globert was the leader of the Glowkies. However, when they got to the top of the skyscraper, Globert shouted five words first.

"Not so fast, traitor boys!" Warned Globert.
"You dare work for King Nixel just to destroy this CITY?"
The orange mixels turned towards the Glowkies upon hearing Globert's demanding question.
"Excuse me?" Asked the snake-like orange mixel.
"I'm Vampos." Interrupted Vampos.
"Eh- I'm Boogly!" Introduced Boogly.
"Puh-lease! I was having a dramatic moment!" Complained Globert.
"And I'm Globert."
(A/N: This is a callback to when the Glowkies met the Orbitons and Infernite Cousins in Mixel Moon Madness.)
"..Globert, what did you hear to think of us that way?" Asked the humanoid orange mixel.
In response, he told the orange mixels his theory about why he thinks the orange mixels work for King Nixel in great detail, which made the snake-like orange mixel burst laughing at the fact that Globert would believe such a thing just because a group of nixels know about a villian.
"Not gonna lie, I think you heard it wrong." The katana-wielding orange mixel told Globert.
"We're trying to save Mixopolis from King Nixel, not help him destroy it."
"That's the phrase all traitors say, 'we're trying to do something good, not help the villian'! It's really cliche, even." Protested Globert.
"..Boogly suggest we go, this is getting awkward." Said Boogly.
"Uh, yeah. Do you even know if they're telling the truth or not?" Vampos asked Globert.
The humanoid orange mixel agreed with Vampos, and turned towards Globert, disappointment in the Glowkie leader visible in his face, but the humanoid orange mixel knew to not judge him for what he thought about the orange mixels.
"Now if you'll excuse us, we have to keep track of what the enemy is doing." Said the humanoid orange mixel.
The orange mixels then went back to watching King Nixel in the black skyscraper. Globert still didn't believe that the orange mixels were good, but Vampos and Boogly really wanted Globert to stop believing his theory that he just came up with.

*Commercial Break*
Suddenly, the orange mixels noticed four colored dots in an alleyway from afar. Those colored dots were four mixels who were making a nixel disguise.
"It appears the Nixels are behind this I-Cubit mystery." The humanoid orange mixel said to himself.
Cut to the Nixels swarming the streets, with the Nindjas looking down.
"Man, they're poised to take control of the city." Noted the snake-like orange mixel.
"Not if we have anything to say about it! What next, Mysto?" Asked the katana-wielding orange mixel.
"That structure is where they seem to be headquartered. That is where we shall make our move." Noted the humanoid orange mixel as he pointed at the black skyscraper.
The Nindjas theme song plays as the humanoid orange mixel throws a grappling hook at the building, and the three zipline to the roof, with the main Glowkies following them, only the Glowkies were flying instead of ziplining.
"You really must be caught up in your theory about us." The humanoid orange mixel said to Globert.
"I'm not falling for your tricks for your information." Globert told the humanoid orange mixel.
"For the first and hopefully last time, he and his tribe are not evil, Globert." Groaned Vampos.
"Well, you don't know that for sure!" Globert told Vampos.
The orange mixels climb up the decoration (meanwhile, the Glowkies fly up the decoration) and then both tribes slip through the window, landing on the ground. However, both of the tribes found something quite surprising. Cut to a large group of Nixels staring them down and encircling them.
"I haven't found this many nixels in my entire life!" Worried Globert.
"Sorry, fellas. But I'm afraid we can't allow you to unmix Mixopolis." The katana-wielding orange mixel told the Nixels.
"Though you are great in number, you are no match for the Nindjas!" The humanoid orange mixel warned the Nixels.
The Nixels combine into a large robotic composite, letting out a roar. Cut back to the orange mixels and the Glowkies.
"Time to max!" Shouted the humanoid orange mixel as he threw an orange and black cubit in the air.
The orange mixels shouted "MAX!", and then the Max of the orange mixels is formed, brandishing his katanas towards the Nixel beast. He then charges at the beast afterwards.
"NINDJA-A-A!" Yelled the orange mixel Max.
The max sliced the nixels off of the Nixel beast, but the Nixels kept climbing back onto the Nixel beast.
"..That's their tribe name?" Globert asked himself.
The Glowkies pause before maxing as well, and then they joined the fight against the Nixel beast. The beast falls into a pile, scooping the Max up in a Nixel tidal wave, causing the Nindjas to land on the ground as Nixels rain down on him. The Nindjas Max and the Glowkies Max continue to slice at the Nixels, but they eventually engulfed entirely by the nixels, until the Glowkies Max split and Boogly managed to escape the black skyscraper, even if he did get two nixels hanging on his back legs without him knowing. Even though only one of the main Glowkies prevented himself from getting nixed, that didn't mean he wouldn't face a bigger threat.

Tartarus Online
“The new is built upon the old. This is true across all realities, and even the gods themselves cannot escape this fact. Welcome to Tartarus Online, a VRMMOG (Vi-Mog) that offers far more than your usual roleplaying game fare. It is a whole new reality, with a completely level playing field. Gone are the choices of Classes and Archetypes, starting kits and pay-for features. In the bowels of Tartarus, only your effort matters. Once more I welcome you to Tartarus Online. We are going to have a Hells’ of a time.” These were the words that really caught Riley Culman’s attention while watching the promotional video the two guys in nicely tailored suits had brought to him. The two men had come with an invitation, and an offer; which sounded more like a deal with a devil, but was seriously on the up-and-up.

Explore a brand new world. Sleep away his chair-bound life while testing the latest in long term virtual reality immersion technology. And maybe, just maybe regain the mobility robbed from him by an accident as a child. It really sounded all too good to be true to Riley, thus the feeling of making a deal with a devil. But it was what he wanted, more than anything. Welcome to Tartarus Online indeed. Even if the Hells’ are only a step away. [I will also be hosting this story on Scribble Hub, thank you.]

Ereborus
(I'm taking some time off to rewrite certain scenes and improve the quality of my writing. I'll restart updating the fiction once done it.) Update: at the moment, I don't feel like continuing this story. I'm working on another one in my free time, thus I don't know if I will ever come back to Ereborus. A mercenary has recently arrived at the festive city of Soldra in search of a job, but little do they know that a catastrophe will soon strike the city, causing multiple deaths. The mercenary is among the victims of the disaster. Or maybe not. They wake up again in a dilapidated Soldra where strange creatures now roam around freely. Will they survive in this post-catastrophic scenery and understand what really happened? Disclaimer/Trigger Warning: In future, there will be scenes with gore, graphic deaths and animal cruelty. Moreover, considering that the mc is a non-binary mercenary, cases of PTSD and misgendering may be included. If you are too sensitive to these topics, this story isn't for you. ━━━━━━━━━▲━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━▲━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━▲━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━▲━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Hello dear visitors!

Legacy: A wolf's tale
Follow Akascha as she goes from a beast of burden to a lovely (well more like a slightly belligerent) young woman! Note.This is a shory story (about 25.000 words) I wrote a while back in high school. Therefore, the range and depth of the story might be a bit lacking, but I wanted to share it with you anyway now that I discovered RR. Although I would love comments or constructive criticisme (as one can always learn), be aware that I have - at this point in time - no plans of rewriting this story. Thank you and I hope you enjoy! Oh and before I forget! The first chapter is rather short, but the rest of the chapters will make up for it.
