You are Solo Single-- a middle student and to be honest, you're kind of a loser.

It's the weekend and you don't really have any plans and you were just going to watch TV all day.

It takes a lot of effort to pull yourself out of the bed. You didn't realize that the blanket was still wrapped around your feet, and you end up falling face-first into a pile of magazines.

Lifting your face up, you notice that your room's a mess.

Magazines, tissues and food wrappers pretty much cover the entire floor. You think that you should probably clean up.

The door rings and you practically trip over yourself just to get dressed. You've probably made whoever's been ringing the doorbell waiting for about five minutes.

The rest of the house, in contrast to your room, is very clean. Your mom keeps everything neat, unlike you, but she doesn't go into your room out of respect for your privacy.

Opening the door, you see your friends-- your only two friends, really-- standing and looking impatient.

The male friend, Damon, was dressed in all black-- a black shirt and black jeans. A red X was emblazoned on his shirt. His black tail lazily swished from side to side.

The female friend, Angela, was dressed in a white sundress with gold accessories. A golden halo floated behind her head.

"C'mon, Solo. Aren't you ready to go yet?" Damon asks.

> Y-yeah. Let's go out.
> I haven't even taken a bath yet...
> S-sorry, I just woke up.

You scratch the back of your head. "S-sorry... I just woke up. I still need to take a bath, and have breakfast, and clean my room and..."

You list off more of the things that you have to do today, but Angela interrupts you. "I don't want to agree with Damon, but really. We've been planning this for a week! You're a boy, right? Just buy some Axe at the mall, or something."

Damon goes a bit silent, side-eying Angela. You expect him to start something like he usually does, but thankfully, he doesn't.

You start to close the door a bit so you can get started on the long list of things that you have to do today, but Damon grabs you by the wrist. "Move it, faggot!"

Angela looks appalled, but chases after the two of you. She starts going on a long rant, calling Damon a long list of things ending in '-ist'. It's really hard to get her to stop once she gets going like this.

Where were we going again?
> Sneaking into the old school building (Closer to the center of the city)

A week ago, the group had decided-- and by group, really, it was mostly Angela and Damon-- had decided to make a base of operations in the dangerous area of town.

They led you to this abandoned warehouse that they found. In a way, it reminds you a lot of your room-- it's extremely messy. You'd take a liking to it if it weren't for the smell.

"Eww, what is that?" you ask.

"Rat shit. There's also probably a dead hobo here somewhere," Damon jokes. Angela elbows him in the ribs. "Stop trying to scare Solo."

She walks over to the far left, retrieving a trio of brooms. She tosses one to both you and Damon, keeping one for herself. "Start sweeping, boys."

Damon just starts sweeping from side to side, staying in the middle, while Angela starts from the corners. You suppose you should clean too, and you start from the far back.

After clearing out all of the trash and assorted debris, quite frankly the place still smells like rat sh-- poop, and also probably rat piss. Angela starts pouring buckets of water everywhere. Looks like she fished a mop out from somewhere in the warehouse. Either that or the two of them brought the cleaning materials here some time during the last week without telling you.

Damon looks like he's working on the walls, using his tail to hold up the cloth he's using to clean up.

And with that, I'm going to bed. Goodnight OP.

Helping Damon it is then. Writing.
>>
"H-hey, Damon. Can I help you out?" You fiddle with your hands and he tosses you the washcloth. You dodge, and it falls past you, so you have to bend over to pick it up.

"Hah, Solo you loser. Come here." He barely gives you warning before he lifts you up on his shoulders. "Get to the spots I can't reach if you really wanna help."

You start scrubbing, reaching up and trying to get as high as you can. The walls are really gross with all the dust, and even just wiping them with water changes them from a grimy gray to a much, much lighter white.

You go over all the walls twice, just to be sure. All this wall scrubbing left you sore, so Damon who was carrying you the whole time probably feels much worse than you do.

It was about that time that an old hobo wanders into your warehouse. Angela tries to fend him off, but gets swatted aside.

"Solo, you should transform!" Damon barks it out more like a command than a request.

> I-I don't want to.
> W-what are you talking about?

Looks like we have consensus.

Also two dubs in a row. Nice.
>>
"I-I don't want to!" You shake your head, pulling your hands close to your chest. Damon grabs you by the shoulders and shakes you a bit. "Dammit, Angela's going to get stabraped by that geezer or something."

You shake your head a bit more-- you really don't want to transform. "Dammit, fine. I'll handle this." He stabs his hand into the X-mark on his shirt, and it goes in. His form ripples a bit, like water, as he pulls something out from the X.

Damon stops 'rippling'. He doesn't transform at all, but rather, pulls out a metal sword. The sword's edges, however, are blunted, so it's really more like a club. He holds it backhand, the blunted blade against his forearm, and charges Angela's attacker.

"I guess I can understand wanting to be a little selfish sometimes," he mutters. Looks like he thinks you didn't hear him.

He clonks the hobo on the back of the head, but the hobo doesn't get knocked out. He tries agaain, going for the side of the temple this time, and the Hobo's form ripples. "Uh-oh."

> Uh-oh? What's Uh-oh?

>>
Uh-oh? What's Uh-oh? seems to be in the lead. Writing.
>>
"Damon? Uh-oh? What's 'Uh-oh'? What did you dooooo?" You feel like you're probably going to cry. The hobo's form is rippling more violently now, looking like it's made of very rapidly vibrating jelly.

"I didn't do ANYTHING, kid! This guy! He ain't human!"

Angela stops being paralyzed long enough to get on her feet. She taps the middle of her chest and pulls out a... Is that a water gun?

She pulls out a water gun that looks like it's made of gold and ivory-- a contrast to Damon's ebony and ruby blade. She fires the water at the rippling figure, the water turning to ice on contact.

Just when you thought Angela successfuly subdued... whatever it is, the ice breaks, sending tiny bits of ice flying. You transform instinctually, your form rippling. Your orange cover-alls transform into a rather fancy-looking dress once your form settles. A small wand, topped with a pumpkin also materializes in your hands.

This is why you HATE transforming.

"Oh, god, FINALLY," Damon says, side-eying you.

He jumps back-- the former hobo's form stabilizes the same time yours does, turning into a rather crooked looking beast. It was a lot less like a singular creature, but more like a mass of arms crawling all over each other.

Of all the crawling arms, six seem to be the main arms, two being used for walking, and four each holding a cup.

Angela stands by your side, preparing her... you suppose it's a magic water gun. That's hardly the strangest thing you've seen today-- or ever, really.

Fire forms on the tip of your Pumpkin Wand, and you throw it forward, at about the same time Angela shoots the beast. The two of you pummel it with alternating blasts of Fire and Ice. (BLACK TEMPERANCE 8/10)

When it moves to attack, it sweeps one of its large arms, but Damon stops it by blocking it with his sword. It doesn't look like could hold it for long, however-- only enough that you and Angela managed to get out of the way first. Damon himself is thrown against a wall. (DAMON 7/10)

It might take him a bit to get up on his feet.

The beast upends the contents of one of the goblets it carries, but Angela shoots it, freezing it in mid-air.

What do you do?

With Damon down, you take his roll of Melee combatant. You don't ever remember punching very hard when untransformed, but while transformed, your blows knock the monster's arms back inch by inch with each punch. (BLACK TEMPERANCE 7/10)

Damon finally picks himself up and helps you by slashing at the creature. His attacks are much stronger than yours. (BLACK TEMPERANCE 4/10)

Black Temperance manages to knock you both away. While Damon manages to land properly this time, you don't. (DAMON 5/10)(SOLO 7/10)

Angela shoots it with her magical water-gun, but it seems that she's run out of ammo, putting her out. Damon's alone on the field, while Angela refills her gun.

>>
While Angela was refilling her water gun, you run up to the monster, body feeling lighter than before. You jump high in the air, while Damon jumps back.

Magic suspends you in mid-air until you let go, kicking THROUGH the mass of arms. Damon slashes through with his blunted sword at just about the same time. (BLACK TEMPERANCE 0/10)

The monster ripples, then evaporates, like water. When Angela sees that the monster had been defeated, she hides the gun back into her chest, her form rippling to allow it through. Damon putting his weapon away looked a bit more disturbing, since he literally stabs it through his chest.

You touch your chest to make the dress go away, and it gets replaced with your civillian outfit as well.

"I'm going out for a smoke," Damon says, pulling out a packet of cigarettes from his pocket. "Damon! You're fourteen! You shouldn't be smoking!" Angela follows him out.

You follow them too, simply out of not wanting to be alone.

Damon drops his cigarette with his jaw wide open. Angela stares too, in horror.

The sky is bright red.

Ah, I should probably mention in the future.

Pumpkin Kick is a finisher, so if it doesn't destroy the monster, it automatically fails. It does more damage than Pumpkin Punch OR Pumpkin Fire, though. Also, it can only be used once per encounter. So keep this in mind for future threads.
