Steve ran towards Percy, he didn't know why.
But he did.
And he shouldn't have.
Because he slipped in Percy's blood and landed on his noggin.
But he was sure he looked cool doing it.
Dazed, Steve got up, adjusted his sunglasses, and marched over to Doomore.
"Hey, girl, hey," he said.
For a second, Steve thought he saw a flash of something in her eyes. Not anger or hatred, this was much more lusty.
But just as fast, it was gone.
Perhaps he had imagined it. Perhaps their alone time earlier in the evening meant nothing.
But it was worth a try.
"Wanna run away together?" he asked.
Doomore laughed.
"HA! HA!"
She wanted to. But she couldn't.
"This ends now," she said. "Join your friends over there."
Steve stared at her for a moment.
Then he cranked his head back and butted Doomore in the face.
"That's for Nene," he said.
Doomore growled before grabbing Steve's neck with both her hands and squeezed.
Steve couldn't breathe. He flapped his wing, trying to free himself, but it was useless.
He could feel himself passing out.
Soon, the struggle was over.
As was Steve's life.
Steve died, y'all. | |

Percy's smile, and his fleeting contentment, faded as he wearily turned his head towards the commotion. He heard some harsh gasping sounds, followed by Steve's lifeless body crumpling to the ground.
The red dress that he had just seen retreating towards the exit regretfully began to emerge back into view. A trio of hunters escorted Carmen, Nene, and Ryan back towards the stage, a gun trained on each of their heads. The sound of three pistols cocking echoed through the room.
Percival tried to yell out, tried to say something--anything--to talk Doomore down from this madness, but all that spilled from his mouth was a sad little spurt of blood.
"Do it. These pesky little birds aren't even worth the trouble of keeping around for phase two." she nodded to the hunters.
*BANG*
*BANG*
*BANG*
Carmen, Nene, and Ryan's lifeless bodies slumped to the ground, just feet away from where Percival laid bleeding out.
A trail of blood leaked from Carmen's shattered skull, which met up with the pool of blood that had formed around Percival. The blood swirled together into one uniform puddle...and that was as close as Percy ever came to knowing Carmen's touch ever again.
Percy then shut his eyes for good. | |

Louis looked around at all the carnage. First Steve, then Percy, Nene, Ryan and Carmen. This couldn't be the end, it just couldn't.
After quickly scanning the room, he summed up the facts: He was on the side of the stage, the crumpled bodies of Nene, Ryan and Carmen nearby. Percy and Steve were down by the evil Doomore. He couldn't do anything to save his friends now, but could he save himself?
The crowd's focus was still concentrated on Percy's dead body but some were beginning to shift their eyes toward the stage. Dr. Doomore was going to lock onto him any second, he could feel it. It was now or never.
Louis took off in flight. He headed up, up, up... toward the skylight in the middle of the room. His goal was to circle around and head toward the doors, head out into the night and keep going... He just needed this roundabout path to distract everyone.
As he flew toward the skylight he heard Doomore's sickening voice.
"THERE!" she screeched, "Another one! Get it!"
The word 'it' rankled. How dare she say --
BANG!!!
The sound deafened Louis for a split second. And then he felt it. His body felt like multiple knives were piercing him. He had seen enough of his friends' untimely deaths to know this was a shotgun blast.
He tried to keep flying. I can make it, he thought.
But he knew he was lying to himself. He felt himself falling, falling, and then he felt a THUD as his body hit the floor. Directly in front of Doomore's feet.
He looked up and saw her smug expression as she stared down at him... and he also noticed a white substance dripping down from her hair onto her forehead and then over her face. She looked very annoyed now.
"Oops, pardon me Doomore, but I guess it's difficult to control your bodily functions when you've been shot and all," Louis managed to whisper.
He didn't hear Doomore's response. The lights in the room began to fade. Louis closed his eyes and all he could see was Clarice. She was smiling, welcoming him.
He saw her waiting by a quaint cottage by the water.
I'm coming, Clarice, Louis told her, as he breathed his last. | |

Date: June 12th, 2022
Time: 9:56 pm
Location: Dr. Doomore's Manor
And so, all together, the six silly geese fell.
Over the next several weeks and months, Dr. Doomore enacted her grand scheme. After mass producing The Babble, Doomore was able to mass control animals across the nation. Nests were robbed. Burrows were sacked. Dens were plundered.
Mikhail Popov and his gang of Russian fighting geese were overtaken effortlessly. The Skein inhabitants forcibly evacuated themselves. Commander Xander Gander and the rest of Project Watering Hole willingly gave up the location of their hideout and marched themselves straight into the nearest city's zoo. Doomore's hatred for furry, feathered, and scaly folk spread far and wide. Forests, swamps, and even the skies grew quiet as Doomore rose in power. Soon, there were no wild animals left standing no matter how hard you looked.
However. As The Squawd lay bleeding out in Doomore's ballroom, Percival's Honkasonic Elite uploaded his final message. Around the world, a final plea recorded by Percival was sent out to any critter that was listening. His warning detailed Doomore's plan, including all the information about The Babble that The Squawd had gathered and how to locate and destroy it.
Though Percival's words seemingly fell on deaf ears as animals were taken away far and wide, it wasn't all for nothing...
For deep down, farrrr underground, there laid another crew. One that would pick up the baton handed to them by the six heroes of The Squawd and carry on their mission. Able to avoid detection and Doomore's control, this group have been hiding, waiting, and scheming.
They have been angry.
They have been eager.
And they have been busy...
Coming...probably never! But that's okay, tbd
Thanks again to the three who stuck with it. Good job! Minus those final rolls. What an ending (:
I thought the beginning was a lot of fun. I loved the brief character creation and the relationship's being fleshed out. And anytime a new story post came through I got v excited, I thought it was great. Then................disaster struck. Obviously killed the vibe and dragged the whole thing out but, what can you do! Glad we finished at least
A shame that people vanished because I was hoping to use this game as a proof of concept of sorts for a different type of online roleplay/TTRPG experience for us. Something less fast paced and less conversation based than ATTWS or Lab and obviously more fanfictiony/classic text RPG. I've been talking to some people here about doing an on site, ongoing dnd campaign similar to this but this was a little uh...disheartening (: . But informative! I would certainly make it so that an individual (or a group of three!) couldn't hold things up or stall the game completely. So some things would have to be reworked for sure, we'll see if it ever happens
Ty to you three and special shoutout to our one audience member, Spin
