Turn 49Location: The Center (Aqua Resort)
Time: Night
Weather: Shadowy
Light: Very little
Turn ActionsAmadeus: Attack the half-shadow-half man-beast.Amadeus pulled back his right arm and charged across the library. He caught up with the hostile shade and
hit it hard with his hammer. The shadow creature was knocked into the air, momentarily freeing Oomph from its assault. Oomph dodged to the side and Amadeus waited for the being to fall to the ground.
The creature was just small enough to fit into the black hole in the middle of the library. It hit the ground near the hole and tumbled backwards into it. Amadeus was uneasy at first, but realized that the battle was won.
Oomph: Cast Protect on Self, fight defensively.Oomph waved his club around, creating a magical field around him. He felt heavily protected from damage."Shadow lady? You down there?" Oomph stared down at the hole. She -
it - was gone.
"Oomph think you look like a pretty lady. Leader-of-the-World, Oomph, could use girlfriend... available?"He focused his eyes at the hole. Two white dots far below appeared to be getting larger with every passing second. What was going on down there?
Joe: Flip your shit. Leave no shit unflipped.Joe flipped his shit. His shit started flipping out so hard that it went all the way around and flipped back in, becoming a horrible variety of
anti-shit.
He decided that the best way to not die was probably to avoid attacks. But it appeared as though the threat was already gone.
Bradley: Loot the room.Bradley floated around the entrance hall a little longer, but
couldn't find anything else of use. It was pretty empty."Sorry!" A voice called out that single word as something rushed past Bradley and to the northeast. It was tall and blue.
Zachary: Brace yourself and rush across the bridge.Zachary heard fighting across the bridge, along with a nasty sounding voice and something buzzing past him in that general direction. He made a run for it, dashing around the northeastern corridor, across the stone bridge and under
one, two, then three Thwomps without taking more than a single point of damage.
He saw a blue-dressed human holding some sort of bow looking around the room, disconcerted. On the other side of the room, Oomph and Amadeus peered into a small hole in the floor. Joe sat himself against a bookshelf.

A rumbling in the ground. That's how trouble starts.
Bradley flew back around to the library. All his teammates - plus one more - were gathered around that one hole in the ground. What were they watching?
The ground shook once more, and the white dots beneath the black hole in the center of the library grew larger and larger until they burst out of the hole with an unrelenting force. Streaks of shadow darted across the room as the shadow creature flew out of the hole with a champion's grip on none other than-
"Ochita!?"Bradley and Oomph dropped their jaws. The shadow creature stepped off of the portal and onto the hard floor of library.
"What is this madness!?" The being threw Ochita's fully living body in Bradley's direction.
"A spy from your world trying to sneak through the Neverwas and find his way to mine? Insolent fool!"
The tall, blue man readied his bow. He aimed for the shadow creature's throat.
"Alright, that's it! I didn't want to have to use this, but if you're not going to tell me what's going on, I might have to!""Silence!" The shadow creature's voice echoed through the room.
"I cannot win this battle, so I must leave. I will be back!"The shadow creature ran through the hole in the northern wall, and the tall, blue man chased after it. After the dust from the chase parted, the Heroes gathered around Ochita, who slowly brought himself to his feet.
This is the ballsiest thing I have done in MKW yet. I'll ask Ochita if he still wants to play. If not, I'll make him an NPC and send him back to the Kingdom to report on what he's seen or something.
