《Cubits Can't Save You Now (In Progress)》Chapter 9: Meanwhile, With T-Midi...
Advertisement
I was just sitting in my red chair while drinking a cup of coffee and eating a slice of toast with grape jelly spread on it. I knew I needed a day to relax, so here we are.
"Ahh... now this is relaxation." I sighed as I sipped my coffee.
"Thankfully there hasn't been any trouble for today."
As if to answer and prove me wrong, a crash was heard. I had to set down my toast and coffee, and then I ran outside where I saw the rocket van as it had been CRASHED in front of my HOUSE!
"I take it back. I take it all back." I told himself.
Suddenly, a big (but really cute and very scared) scorpion jumped out of the rocket van through the back doors, and then the scorpion huddled against the right side of the rocket van.
"Scorpi, we know that was a bumpy ride, but please calm down." A spike-headed creature told the scorpion as it peeked through the back doors.
A green creature with slime for arms also climbed out of the back doors.
"Yeah, try thinking happy thoughts!" Exclaimed the green creature.
...What the? What even are those creatures..? I walked towards the van and attempted to climb to the back doors to check for more of those creatures, but the spike-headed creature's feet kept hitting me as I attempted to examine the amounts of Luau Bread in which I saw inside the trunk. Why were there so many of these loaves?
The spike-headed creature and the slime-armed creature both climbed out of the trunk and looked around, clearly ignoring my annoyance with... whatever was going on.
"Swaysway, Buhdeuce, I know you're in there!" I shouted.
"I know you didn't park inside my house and destroy it, but parking it in FRONT of my house isn't any better!"
..Oh, clearly they can't hear me from all of those Luau Bread loaves being inside the trunk, and I'm pretty sure I can tell by how I hear their voices being muffled. Afterwards, I decided to exit the trunk and walk towards the front door, but before I could get to the door, the rocket van suddenly glitched and then dissapeared, leaving the three creatures in its place.
"Oh no, the rocket van's missing!" Said the slime-armed creature.
"C-calm down, Torts. It will be fine long as we just listen to our hearts." Comforted the spike-headed creature.
And then for some reason, he started tap-dancing, with each step making a high-pitched piano note for some reason.
"Yes, we must-.." ..Aaand it saw me.
..Okay, what do I actually do? I'm used to dealing with the Breadwinners literally crashing at my house, but just what in sliced bread are these creatures?
"Sorry, do we know you?" Asked the spike-headed creature.
"..No. Ahem, my name is Talonius C. Midi, but you may call me T-Midi." I told the creature.
So then the spike-headed creature introduced himself as "Footi" and he told me that the names of the other two creatures were "Torts" and "Scorpi". What strange names, and yet I get my bread from ducks named "Swaysway" and "Buhdeuce".
"Well, where exactly did you come from?" I decided to ask Footi.
"Well, Mixel Land, of course!" Said Footi.
"It's the greatest place on Planet Mixel!" Exclaimed Torts.
Cut to the rocket van in Alphaland (Home to the Alphablocks) where we see that it's no longer lodged into the ground, but standing right-side up again. The front doors of the rocket van open and Buhdeuce and Swaysway fall onto the ground out of said front doors. Buhdeuce spits out a loaf of Luau Bread that looks as if someone stuffed it into Buhdeuce's beak.

"I thought we'd never get out of there, Sway!" Said Buhdeuce.
"Yeah, totally. I never wanna experience The Darkness like earlier ever again." Said Swaysway.
As if on cue, The Darkness was heard behind the ducks' rocket van. The camera cuts to the back of the van where we see a pile of The Darkness covering half of the rocket van, and Corrupted A and Corrupted O are pounding on the van. Swaysway squated so Buhdeuce could hear him more clearly.
"Trust me bap, you do not want to make any noise. These glitchy zombies literally in front of us!" Swaysway whispered to Buhdeuce.
"Well, then where can I get some bread from?" Buhdeuce asked Swaysway, also in a whispering tone.
"The van has all of the loaves of Luau Bread and it's being attacked! Bread doesn't grow on trees, Sway!"
Suddenly, Buhdeuce was about to sneeze, so Swaysway grabbed him and put him in his shirt.
"PLEASE DON'T SNEEZE DUDE!" Swaysway told Buhdeuce.
Afterwards, Buhdeuce sneezed on his shirt, but then the two ducks realized that they caught the attention of the two Corrupted Alphablocks.
"Bubble nuggets." Mumbled Buhdeuce.
The two ducks then ran off screaming with the two corrupted Alphablocks and The Darkness coming after them. There was no time to stop, there was no time to waste, they just had to keep running and running for miles and miles. Speaking of which, because of all of the miles and miles the two ducks attempted to run, Swaysway's right leg began to cramp, and then he tripped.
"NO, DON'T GIVE UP SWAY!" Shouted Buhdeuce.
"I can't, my leg cramps!" Swaysway told Buhdeuce.
"JUST RUN IT OFF, WE DON'T GOT TIME FOR WORRYING ABOUT CRAMPS!" Yelled Buhdeuce.
Before Swaysway could say anything else, The Darkness caught up to him, causing Buhdeuce to yelp and continue running, only he was more fearful than he already was due to his best bap being taken by a pile of glitchy slimy stuff. However, Buhdeuce just couldn't outrun The Darkness because it grabbed him before he could get a head-start. Meanwhile, the Glowkies were hurriedly flying towards Planet Mixel, since Mixel Moon was destroyed by The Hideous Vaccum of Space. That meant that they either had to look for a new home or stay still, stranded in space.
However, with a glitch transition, the main Glowkies suddenly teleported atop a giant skyscraper in a city never before seen. The main Glowkies looked down from the skyscraper, only to find various planetoid (their words, not mine) mixels, which clearly meant they were in Planet Mixel, but possibly somewhere on Planet Mixel they've never seen before.
"What is this place?" Globert asked himself.
"Uh, pretty sure it's Planet Mixel." Said Vampos.
"No, not that, I was talking about this city!" Corrected Globert.
"Pssh, it might just be a city in general, I guess." Assumed Vampos.
"Yeah, Boogly agrees." Replied Boogly.
Suddenly, the three Glowkies heard a conversation from far away. When they looked to their left, they saw three orange mixels (who the Glowkies assumed were Flexers) standing on a skyscraper far away and having what seemed to be some sort of conversation. What the orange mixels are actually saying can be heard very faintly.
(Fun Fact: The lines of dialog that the orange mixels are saying are actually from the NNGA episode of Mixels. Also, Glowkies are bat-like, therefore they're able to hear anything from 10 miles away.)
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 Maxes up in a Nixel tidal wave, causing the Nindjas Max & Glowkies Max to land on the ground as Nixels rained down on them. The Nindjas Max and the Glowkies Max continued to slice at the Nixels, but they eventually became engulfed entirely by the nixels until the Glowkies Max split and Boogly managed to escape the black skyscraper, with him getting two nixels hanging on his back legs without him knowing along the way. Even though only one of the main Glowkies prevented himself from getting nixed, that didn't mean he wouldn't face a bigger threat.

Sylph Resurgence
Our protagonist Kai has his mother taken away from him at a young age, an act apparently committed by demons. Now, 7 years on, Kai embarks on a new adventure as he begins the new school year at the esteemed Zion Academy in the kingdom of Nirvania, where adventures await him in a world embroiled in tensions which is full of surprises and mysteries at the same time. A month has passed since Night Wing's incursion on the capital of Nirvania, Nirvana. However, that isn't the end of Nirvania's problems, with war against its warmongering neighbour, Miran looking ever more likely than before. To make matters worse, tensions have been stoked between the Sylph Kingdom and Nirvania by the Chaos Legion, the true enemies hiding in the darkness, opening the possibility to a war on 2 fronts. Kai may only be a 2nd Year student at Zion Academy, but the raging storms of this chaotic era spare no one, especially given his close ties to Adeline, the Sylph Princess. Can Kai circumvent the tides of chaos and live to see the end of what is likely to be a 3rd Holy War? Will Nirvania stand strong against its foes, or crumble and be washed away by the sands of time? 2 years had passed since the conclusion of the 3rd Holy War, which was achieved by the combined efforts of the Nirvanian Army, the 10 Saints and Kai's team, which have been affectionately known thereafter as the Rising 8; a group of rapidly rising youths revered as national heroes for their contributions in putting an end to the 3rd Holy War. Moreover, relations between all 4 Kingdoms on the Central Continent, namely Nirvania, Miran, Cameron and the Sylph Kingdom, have reached unprecedented heights, ushering an age of peace. However, danger lies ever closer, with the Chaos Legion staying low over the past 2 years, awaiting the perfect opportunity to rear its ugly head. Even though Kai had trained hard over the past 2 years to master both his demonic and Sylph ancestry, when the battle has evolved from between mortals to that of the seemingly immortal Chaos Generals, can Kai and his fellow Nirvanians rise above the odds with their allies and vanquish the chaos?
