>>5325210Frozen in place by what just transpired, you stand your ground on shaky legs as a familiar set of baggy orange legs emerge from the rift!
“No…” Ly mutters, “I-it can’t be…”
Shaking off some unknown portal residue is a figure clad in a ratty, booze-stained <span class="mu-r">MASCOT SUIT…</span> one that you know all too well!
“Is that-” Art whispers from the corner,
“<span class="mu-i">Cl-Clearwater…</span>” Sybil moans as she watches weakly from the floor, “<span class="mu-i">C-COD..</span>”
https://youtu.be/Ljt5vNK2CpMThe very same. Striding confidently over to you with a <span class="mu-r">TELESCOPING PITCHFORK</span> over their shoulder, the <span class="mu-r">CLEARWATER COD MASCOT</span> stops a few feet away before greeting you with a few twirls of their weapon!
“Dat’s…” Ly remarks as the two of you circle each other like territorial raccoons, “Dat’s da’ one we fought in da’ <span class="mu-g">SCHOOL,</span> ain’t it?!”
Not bothering to respond, you instead give the newcomer a few hollow claps. A fish of guts and honor, you remark in a snide tone, but it’s too bad you work for <span class="mu-r">TIM…</span> right?
Not bothering to respond either, the mascot reaches for the suit’s head and tosses it to the floor!
“Ho-ly <span class="mu-s">CRAP,</span>” Talbot sputters as his jaw practically drops to the floor, “I-it’s <span class="mu-r">ANOTHER STAN!</span>”
He’s not wrong–sporting the same hairstyle you used to have along with the same freckles and goofy tooth, the girl standing in front of you is the spitting image of, well, <span class="mu-i">YOU</span>... save for the black-as-pitch skin, white hair and the glowing red eyes, of course!
Not bothering to let her get the first hit in, you charge forward with <span class="mu-g">BONE CLAWS</span> drawn… and are shocked when they meet resistance!
The <span class="mu-r">DEMON</span> giggles as her own <span class="mu-r">BONE CLAWS</span> interlock with yours! Pushing off of each other, the two of you skid backwards as the rest of your team vacates the battlefield! You’ve got no clue who she is, but one thing’s for sure: she’s <span class="mu-s">BAD NEWS!</span>
What do!?
>SEE IF SHE’S GOT AN EYE LASER! BLAST HER!>THE BONE CLAWS ALMOST WORKED–LET’S TRY THAT AGAIN!>GET YOUR LAZY-ASS FRIENDS IN HERE! YOU DIDN’T TELL THEM TO STOP FIGHTING!>CHUCK SOME OF THOSE ELECTRICAL GOO BOMBS AT HER!>YOU’VE GOT THAT SPRAY BOTTLE FROM THE CHURCH WITH YOU–TRY THAT OUT?>TRY TO COMMUNICATE!
