《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 33: Confrontation
Advertisement
Cut to Krog and Snoof.
"Sorry I doubted you, little buddy." Apologized Krog.
"Aww, that's okay, Krog." Assured Snoof.
Krog scooped up Snoof, and then he gave him a noogie.
"Noogie!" Said Krog.
Cut back to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"But first, you must perform a quest!" Continued the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut back to Krog and Snoof, with Krog still carrying Snoof.
"A quest?" Asked Snoof.
Now becoming furious with disbelief, Krog began to shake Snoof and drop him almost immediately.
"NOW LOOK WHAT YOUR DELUSIONS GOT US INTO, DOOFUS!" Barked Krog.
Cut back to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"You must undertake a search for fantastic riches; the long-lost Mixamajig!" Announced the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut to a pan of the Mixels staring in awe, with the Munchos eating, as the Maximum Mixel continued to speak.
"To its possessor, the Mixamajig shall grant all of their wildest Mixing hopes and dreams!" Continued the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut back to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"The question is, which of you is special enough to be chosen as the keybearer?" Asked the Maximum Mixel puppet.
Cut to the Munchos. Snax is still eating popcorn while Berp is juggling.
"Oh, I could use some vonderfulness! Maybe I could be the chosen one!" Exclaimed Vaka.
"First, you gotta be worthy! It's just one big juggling act." Explained Berp.
Berp then swallowed the fruit he juggled and winked. Cut to the Glorp Corp.
"I think maybe I should be the chosen one, it's in the blood!" Assumed Gurggle.
"Please! I am the essence of worthiness!" Bragged Dribbal.
Dribbal then snorted, causing his snot to fall to the ground.
Cut to the Frosticousins.
"No chance here!" Shouted Krog.
Chilbo then laughed nervously while Snoof crossed his fingers in hopes of being the chosen one.
"Pretty, pretty please, choose me, choose me!" Muttered Snoof.
A glow forms around his hands as the Mixamajig key materializes in them, and then a spotlight shown over him.

"Oh worthy one, take this key; never let it out of your sight." The Maximum Mixel puppet told Snoof.
"I'm the chosen one!" Exclaimed Snoof.
Snoof then laughed and stomped his foot happily.
Cut to the Glorp Corp Cousins.
"Hey, come on, why does he get the key?" Questioned Gurggle.
"Yeah, why?" Asked Dribbal.
Cut to the Nixels working the puppet. Suddenly, the puppet began to glitch, making the nixels slightly nervous. Cut to the Maximum Mixel puppet.
"Remember, chosen one, the key will show you the way. That's all for now, toodle-loo!" Reminded the Maximum Mixel puppet.
The light then glitched out once more and the puppet dissapeared, but then the light now started showing a half-second of a Peg + Cat introduced, a full second of a CatDog intro, and then a fight where the Nindjas Max was going up against Corrupted Nurp-Naut, Corrupted Booger, Corrupted Rigby, and Corrupted Mordecai. The Nindjas Max attempted to slice the corrupted cartoons, but when he sliced them, The Darkness came out. However, it was hard to tell what was going on since the fight looked extremely low-res and it kept glitching out.
"What the heck is this now?" Complained Krog.
"Eh, it's probably vat happens if we didn't know about ze Mixamajig." Assumed Vaka.
"..I don't get it. Seriously, if this is the future, how come it's so glitched out?" Questioned Berp.
Before anyone could say anything, the fight suddenly glitched out and turned into an extremely heavily glitched out adult swim bumper, only the white text somehow withstood all of the chaotic glitching inside the bumper.
".- ... ... .. -- .. .-.. .- - ." Read the text in the bumper.
A half-second later, the text in the bumper switched to another line of Morse code.
".-.. . - / .. - / - .- -.- . / --- ...- . .-." Read the new text in the bumper.
Another full second later, the text suddenly changed once again.

"- .... . / -.. .- .-. -.- -. . ... ... / .. ... / -.-. --- -- .. -. --. .-.-.-" Read the newer text in the bumper.
The text then glitched out as it switched from "THE DARKNESS IS COMING." to its Morse code variant and back, but then the light completely started to glitch out extremely heavily. Cut to the nixels who were trying to turn off the light projector. One cat-eared nixel was kicking the projector while the cube-eared nixel was looking for a lever on the back of the projector that turned it off. Suddenly, the projector turned off before the cube-eared nixel could find the lever, but then the projector started to ooze out The Darkness, forming a black, glitchy hand that grabbed the cat-eared nixel and threw it onto the ground, next to the cube-eared nixel.
Cut back to the mixels who had witnessed the chaos the projector had created.
"Well, that was something." Muttered Waka.
"Vait, vas zat Morse code?" Asked Vaka.
"Well, yeah, but what could it mean?" Replied Dribbal.
"Hm, we could try to decode it, but it's going to take a while." Said Chilbo.
"Yeah, there's that. At least we won't have to do the quest!" Shrugged Krog.
"Aw, come on! If we're gonna get all the wonderful stuff, we got to do the quest!" Reminded Snoof.
"We'll do the quest when we're done decoding, GOT IT!?" Shouted Krog.
"..Okay, fine, but only because it might tell us more about the Mixamajig." Said Snoof.
Meanwhile, the crater started to rumble, and soon it began to fill up with The Darkness.
"Huh?" Said the Mixels.
"Now this is really strange." Said Berp.
The mixels began to back away, but then The Darkness yanked Vaka-Waka into it, and then Dribbal, and then Chilbo. This had caused the mixels to run away, screaming in horror and fear, but then The Darkness suddenly grabbed Snax by the leg and pulled him into itself similar to Burnard's fate. The surviving mixels ran and ran and ran up the hill in an attempt to escape the chaos, but The Darkness never slowed down on its way towards its victims.
"RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!" Shouted Berp.
"GANG WAY EVERYBODY!" Yelled Krog.
Snoof, Slusho, Krog, Berp, and Gurggle ran through the crowd of Munchos, but then The Darkness had caught the attention of said Munchos, and then they ran along with the surviving mixels.
"Hehe, guess I'm in danger!" Lolliclawp nervously remarked.
(A/N: This line is a reference to Ralph Wiggum's famous line from The Simpsons, also known as "Hehe, I'm in danger!".)
Lolliclawp then sat down and fell on his side, accepting his traumating fate, and then The Darkness ate him right up. Meanwhile, due to Snoof's ability of super speed, the other survivors couldn't keep up with the speedy Frosticousin.
"HEY DOOFUS, GO SLOWER SO WE CAN CATCH UP!" Yelled Krog.
Just when the five mixels thought it couldn't get any worse, they were suddenly teleported to a dark forest with a crater inside. They ran through the crater (with Snoof having a specific watch latch onto his arm) and continued to run. However, it seemed that The Darkness stopped chasing them once they were in the crater, and it even ran back.
"..I'm never going to sleep after that nightmare fuel." Blurted Berp.
"Yeah, I second that." Agreed Snoof as he rubbed his head.
But then Snoof felt something poke his head, almost as if there was something on his right arm. He looked at the right arm, and he saw that on it was a gray watch with a black circle that had a green symbol where the clock should be.
