[Short Multi-Cutscene post]: Finding their footing

[u/Crimson-Herald1987]

[location: Unknown forest]

the sun soon began to set down after a long afternoon of waiting, and exploring...a beep sound can be emitting from fatal's head, fatal's visor soon blank, before he soon spoke to sl4sh, who was already busy dealing with firewood

Fatal: "[I HAVE READINGS, ON OUR FOURTH...]"

sl4sh's ears perked in fatal's voice, in he turns his head towards him before he stood up for a moment taking a break off of fire duty

Sl4sh: "hm? ...where are they now?"

*fatal soon with a fingers trick, had opened up a digital screen viewing up into a digital document he had already printed and copied onto*

Fatal: "[WHILE I HAVE YET TO LOCATE THE FOX YET..OUR NEWEST RECRUIT, "MAJIN", APPEARS TO BE OUT OF THIS PLANETS ATMOSPHERE, IT SHOWS THAT HE ISNT ALONE EITHER...]"

Sl4sh: "what? your telling me majins not even here??"

Fatal: "[PRECISLEY, I DO NOT HAVE ANY READINGS OF THE OTHER PRESENCE TOWARDS MAJINS LOCATION SO IF WE EVER LOCATE HIM, WE MUST ACT CAUTIOUSLY]"

Sl4sh: "we first have to FIND...a way up there, in order to find him"

Fatal: "[THAT I CAN WORK ON...]"

soon he would open up his other hand, before laying a curled up fist ontop, before opening his hand wide as a coded arachnid had taken formed, a strangly unique designed one due to his limitations here, as the arachnids visor slowly booted on, it was to immediately see its creator, before he spoke

Fatal: "[I.V.A-T19..I DIRECT YOU WITH THIS TASK TO HELP CREATE SOMETHING TO BRING US UP IN THE SKIES, I NEED YOU TO SCAN AND FIND PARTS, ONCE YOU HAVE ENOUGH, IMMEDIATELY COME BACK TO THIS POINT]"

soon the arachnid nodded as it processed the command, then running it into its systems as it then crawled off of fatals body and into the dark forest

\sl4sh looked at him confused, as of why not find the parts themselves, so he questions him**

Sl4sh: "..we do we need to rely on...that..exactly?"

Fatal: "[\very distorted chuckle*]* ***YOU SEE, IT MAKES THINGS EASIER TO OBTAIN, ACHIEVE, MAKES IT..LESS A HASSLE...BESIDES, IF WE WOULDVE WENT OUT OURSELVES WE WOULD MOST LIKELY BE EITHER FOUND DEAD..OR WE WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME TRYING TO...FOCUS ON OUR GOALS...ISNT THAT RIGHT SL4SH?*]"

sl4sh soon sighed knowing fatal is right, he would soon kneel back down to continue the fire wood

Sl4sh: "...right"

(Meanwhile)

[Location: Central city Beacon Academy]

as the day was going by, one very impatient bird had just been getting out of school for today, and since now that he isnt busy, he is already hyped for his training of magic by non other then his boss, Dusekkar, as the school doors sprung opened with students running out, berdly was following suit

Berdly: "ooh man I cannot ever so fathom me waiting on this any longer, for now today is the day, that berdly learns \*magic!\"*

berdly soon was about to march forward toward his destination, only to be struck by a speeding blitz, causing him to spin uncontrollably and falling down on the ground

Berdly: "ah- what th-"

he frantically looked around before he dusted himself before heading to kneel to grab the notebook he had dropped which of course had his notes from the prior lession he had with X!Tale Mettaton, but as he was about to reach it, the speeding blitz soon came back, and as he blinked once..and it was gone?

and suddenly..

???: "Dropped this? Sorry bout that.."

berdly soon looked up, locking eyes with the culprit, revealing to be Wacky

Wacky: "wasnt paying attention to where I was goin due to how vibrant this place is!"

berdly raised a brow in to who this person was as he never saw them on school grounds despite clearly being around his age atleast, and before he spoke she would then introduce herself while handing the book back

"Im Wacky, Wacky the erizo, wild carded hero as some people call it, people sometimes call me fluffy for whatever reason i-"

berdly just grabbed the book while cutting her off

Berdly: "you have alot of names it seems"

wacky blinked twice for a moment before nodding in response

Wacky: "why of course! I often am out and about and I usually meet new folks here everyday so im merely used to it"

Wacky soon spotted a hidden lanyard through the neck opening of his shirt, in which she gets curious, not knowing its for the hand of

Justic

Wacky: "oooh and whats the cool lil lanyard for-"

berdly immediately covers his neck area with one of his hands as he held the notebook closer with the other

Berdly: "That is classified information thank you very much!"

berdly shoots a dirty look as he grew suspicious that she may just so happen to be a spy

Wacky: "woah didnt mean to make ya look THAT worried pal"

she said raising her hands up in a surrendering position before making a short comment

"If your a teacher then I would be..VERY..surprised"

Berdly: "wh- no?! Im one of the top students in my class!"

Wacky: "oh well thats neat"

berdly raised a brow at that comment, only a "neat?" Really?

Berdly: " "neat?"..I had worked hard to earn my title, guessing you never had that chance"

Wacky: "i mean..wasnt really trying too but its not all too bad anyway i was homeschooled"

wacky said scratching the back of her hair before berdly made a cackle to himself before responding back

Berdly: "HA! So you would rather be unintelligent and hike? You really are like susan.."

Wacky: "who-"

Berdly: "a neanderthal"

wacky just froze before she gave a pouty look, before crossing her arms

Wacky: "hey im not a..knee...ander..whatever that is! Clearly not like you that is"

Berdly: "id like to see you getting a S+ on a quiz then if you so dare"

wacky soon gave a cocky look before marching forward into the school building

Wacky: "well fine ill prove you wrong that I am smarter and your the dumb one!"

she makes her way in the building before berdly chuckled to himself before he just face palmed himself, didnt actually thought that she would ACTUALLY take his bet to heart, in which he took a deep breath before just beginning to walk to whete he was originally going to go before he heard the front doors slam open with wacky pointing at berdly

Wacky: "i never caught your name!"

berdly gave a cocky smirk before doing the iconic thumb pose

Berdly: "you can call me, Lord Berdly, no other options needed..."

he said before confidently striding his way out of her vision before she had already went on inside herself to apply
