《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 24: From Protagonist to Antagonist
Advertisement
Cut to King Nixel, who is still laughing and crying at the same time.
"Top of the world, ma!" Shouted King Nixel.
Suddenly, a sign that said "MALFUNCTION" on one of the monitor screens started to flash, grabbing King Nixel's attention.
"Huh, What? What's happening?" Questioned King Nixel.
Cut to the rocket, which suddenly explodes. Cut back to King Nixel.
"NOOOOOOOO!" Yelled King Nixel.
Cut back to the explosion site. Cubit essence suddenly starts to pour out from it, scattering in the town. It slowly spreads onto the buildings, bringing color back to them.
"We’re saved!" Exclaimed the Frosticon Parent.
Cut to three Nixels taunting Boldurr and Combustor, who are still nixed. Suddenly, a blast of color hits them, returning them and the scenery back to normal.
"Hey, what happened?" Asked Combustor.
"We’re back! Time to get Mixel!" Exclaimed Boldurr and Combustor.
The two split up and chase the Nixels off. Cut to the color spreading again. Cut to nixed Thornee, Hurtz, and Voltz, who is holding an I-Cubit while three Nixels stand in front of them. A blast of color flies past them, returning them and the scenery back to normal, along with the Cubit.
The three of them Max, shooting electric beams from their hands at the Nixels, who run off. Cut to the stadium, where the Airship is still hovering. A beam of color spreads over it, landing in the stadium and spilling out, returning it back to normal. Inside, the nixed Mixels are returned back to normal, looking around in confusion, and then they start to cheer.
"We’re back!" Exclaimed the Mixels.
Nixels are heard as they all turn towards three Nixels walking down the stairs, one with a paper hat and holding a popcorn tray, another holding a drink and a hot dog. They run off in fear when the Mixels see them.
"Let’s get’ em!" Shouted the Mixels as they started running after the Nixels.

Cut to the remainder of the stadium being filled with color. Cubits pop into the hands of Mixels and they cheer. Cut to the inside of the Airship, where Major Nixel and the Nixel look on in shock.
"I don’t know about you, but I think we got a couple of weeks’ vacation comin’." Major Nixel told the Nixel.
Cut to the Airship, which flies off.
"Next stop, Rancho Cucamonga!" Said Major Nixel off-screen.
Cut to the Sea Dawg rolling through the streets, chasing a hoard of Nixels while its front cannon goes off. Sharx and Skulzy are on board.
"Avast there, ye scurvy dogs!" Shouted Skulzy.
Cut to King Nixel.
"No, no! All of my glorious plans are crumbling to-" Shouted King Nixel, who got interrupted by a wave of color hitting him and two of the Nixels.
They slowly turn rainbow colored.
"What?! No! No! Aaaugh!" Shouted King Nixel.
The three start to dance uncontrollably.
"Holy Nixels, I’ve been... Mixellized!" Exclaimed King Nixel.
Cut to the back of King Nixel’s head. A hatch is kicked out of the back of his head, and his true form, still in black and white, steps out and onto the shoulders of his fake self.
"That's it, I’m out of here!" Shouted King Nixel, who is now high-pitched.
King Nixel laughed as he jumps off of the shoulders onto the ground, where a micro spaceship is waiting for him. He jumps into it, as the engine stalls.
"Come on, come on!" Complained King Nixel.
A blast of flames shoots out of the back and it zooms off.
"I know I said this once before, but really, really, you haven’t seen the last of me!" Yelled King Nixel.
Cut to a bug zapper-like Mix hanging in the base. The ship crashes into it, disentigrating.
"Okay, maybe you have..." Said King Nixel, pained.

The Mix breaks apart, revealing Slusho and Tungster, who both laugh. Cut to outside of the I-Cubit building, where tons of Mixels are rushing out, cheering. Piles of Nixels are on the ground, and the groups meet in the park.
"Hooray! Mixopolis is saved!" Exclaimed the Mixels.
The Mixels cheer and celebrate. Cut to Zabo, Blip, and Scrud.
"Well, well, what about Booger?" Worried Scrud.
"He’s gone." Said Blip.
Zabo, Blip, and Scrud start to cry.
"Poor Booger..." Said Zabo.
Pan to the Nindjas.
"Indeed. Poor Booger. He saved us all." Said Mysto.
Cut to the group of Mixels, who are all crying. Cut back to the trio.
"Hey, look. I think that shining star is Booger looking down on us." Realized Scrud as he pointed upwards.
Cut to a glowing star in the sky, which grows bigger. Cut to the crowd of Mixels, who gasp. Cut back to the star, as Booger parachutes down with a rainbow trail and his eye closed.
"No, wait! It’s... it’s Booger!" Exclaimed Scrud off-screen.
Cut to Booger parachuting down, his eye still closed.
"Hooray! Booger! Booger!" Cheered the crowd of Mixels.
Cut to the crowd cheering as Booger lands near his friends.
"You saved Mixopolis!" Exclaimed Blip.
"You made it!" Said Zabo.
His friend group hug him.
"Aww, dude, you’re the Mixel!" Exclaimed Scrud.
The four break their group hug.
"Thanks, guys. I can't thank you enough for my service." Said Booger.
The four laugh. Cut to the Nindjas, where Mysto is seen holding a comic book.
"You have shown much courage, young Booger." Noted Mysto.
Mysto walks up to him and gives Booger the comic book.
"This is our gift for you." Said Mysto.
"Issue thirty-three, “Return of the Nindjas” original edition? I love it." Said Booger.
"With one small addendum!" Said Cobrax.
Booger opens the comic book to the end, which shows panels of him holding a Cubit, an explosion, him zapping a Nixel, and him looking triumphant.
"Whoa! “Booger Saves Mixopolis”!" Exclaimed the kids.
"And always remember the code of the Nindja..." Noted Mysto.
With color…
Diversity…
And mixing!
"It’s the Nindja way, man." Said Spinza.
However, Mysto suddenly got a feeling as he looked at Booger, almost as if Booger may be someone else, maybe even as if Booger.. was an imposter.
*Commercial Break*
Cut to the inside of N, Crumbs, and Gobba's hideout.
"Alright, if I'm gonna be stayin' here, I wanna have some food. I get hungry very fast, trust me." Noted Gobba.
"Well, good news! You're actually in my bakery!" Said Crumbs.
Gobba looked around, only to find that all of the counters are empty, save for some pastel-colored kitchenware.
"..But then where are the sweets at?" Asked Gobba as he shrugged.
"They're in the clos-" Crumbs stopped herself as she realized that N was in the closet, and so were the sweets.
"..Wait, N GOT TO THE SWEET BEFORE ME?" Complained Gobba.
N face-palmed himself, clearly disappointed in Gobba's gluttony. Gobba ran to the closet and ate an entire jar of sugar cookies, along with the jar itself.
"Wait, stop! We have to save those for later!" Shouted Crumbs.
"NO! STOP MUNCHING THE SWEETS! IT'S NOT NECESSARY!" Yelled N.
Suddenly, Gobba stopped himself. Usually, he'd keep going, but his stomach felt... weird, almost like the time he got full eating all those Rock Pops and Bar-B-Cubes. Gobba coughed, but when he coughed, bits of The Darkness were spraying out. N and Crumbs gasped, catching Gobba's attention.
"What? Is there something on my face?" Asked Gobba.

A Virtual Invasion
An invasion from another dimension is shut down by an Empire's traitor and the world has a scant few decades to build the strength to resist a multidimensional Empire. How will the world fair when no one even knows its doom is one barred gate away? Fortunately, the traitor has a plan. Maybe with a bit of luck and planning, he can build a force to defend the world without anyone realizing it. Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel.Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of?The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters.There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak.So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain?So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.
