《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.

The Perks of Immortality
This story will no longer be updated. After living decades and dying hundreds of times, Kegan has learned that he has finally passed some test that the cruel spirit had given him. Now, Kegan has the ability to gain “perks” that can make his life much easier. He is looking forward to finally having an easy life with the new perks he has earned. Rules to keep me honest for the perk system: Spoiler: Spoiler 1. The purpose of perks is to help the MC live longer and do new things each life. 2. The perks can be unlocked by getting hurt or killed. 3. The perks can be unlocked by putting in a lot of effort that isn’t easily duplicated in a new life. 4. Perks are generally beneficial enhancements to the MC’s body. 5. Perk costs can be lowered with more impressive achievements to unlock them. 6. Perk costs can be lowered by repeated death or injury from something the perk protects against. 7. Perk costs are increased for quality of life improvements that don’t benefit survival. I want to avoid one of the pitfalls I see for other LitRPG stories where the game elements barely relate to the story, or offer very little information. If people are skipping over and not reading the perks then I'm doing things wrong. So I promise to try and make the perks interesting, sometimes humorous, informative, and relevant to the story.Cover art by http://dertypaws.com/

Demon Hunters
Far in the future, the last two viable cities in the western hemisphere – Technoburbia and New Baravia – struggle for control over a vast and largely desolate land. Officially they are at war. In practice, the war has been a stalemate for a generation, the disputed frontier between the two city-states never moving. In the city of New Baravia itself, a vast circular concrete wall keeps its inhabitants in, and its refugees out. For its citizens, life is monotonous and unequal, with enormous wealth in the hands of nobles, criminal gangs, and entertainment bosses. It is the last of these that control the hit entertainment show, “Demon Hunters”. A chance, perhaps, for the ordinary man or woman to rise up, and change their fate... This LitRPG novella is based around a futuristic battle-royale situation, partly set in VR, and partly in a post-apocalyptic city. The story features combat and action, some strong language, and lots of great characters that will stick with you! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
