the hated child

chapter fifty-eight

Previously...


David laughed. "MY TURNNNNN," he sang. "I CAST... FINGER OF DEATH!!!"

Player 3 (David) casts Finger of Death at Player 2 (Mistake).

Mistake winced as she felt NEGATIVE ENERGY course through her bones.

Success! Player 2 (Mistake) takes 62 damage. She is now at 15/100 HP.

Mistake began to cough out blood. "Lucky shot. There won't (or can't) be another one..."

Ebony stepped in. "Well... There will be."


Present Time...

"Ebony, don't even try to be cool. You're going to get yourself killed!" Ronald shouted, grabbing onto Ebony's arm.

"Ummmm, no I won't. I'm COOLER than that."

Mistake yawned, "No one is cooler than death, except me. I've already experienced it because YOU GUYS BETRAYED ME!!!"

Player 2 (Mistake) casts Storm of Vengeance.

"You are all going to regret choosing to be against me in this battle..." she grinned EVILLY. She raised her arms as THUNDER BOOMED and LIGHTNING STRUCK and WIND BLEW.

"Oh no Shed... Why did you do this to us..."

Partial Success! 3 Players take damage.

Player 1 (Ronald) takes 10 damage & is Deafened for the next 5 minutes. She is now at 90/100 HP.

Player 4 (Shed) takes 9 damage and is Deafened for the next 5 minutes. He is now at 78/100 HP.

Player 5 (Ebony) takes 10 damage and is Deafened for the next 5 minutes. She is now at 90/100 HP.

"Oh. That wasn't as much damage as I thought it would be." Mistake sighed, fake disappointed. On the inside, though, she was CACKLING. (you'll see why in a second)

"My turn!" Shed shouted.

Player 4 (Shed) casts Eldritch Blast at Player 2 (Mistake).

A bolt of lightning crackled toward Mistake.

Fail! Player 2 (Mistake) does not take any damage.

"Oh, FRICK FRACK SCHNICK SCHNACK PICK PACK SIX PACK TIC TAC LICK ARMPITS 20 INCH DICK DACK HICKEY HACK TIK TOK RENEGADE RENEGADE RENEGADE!!! *intense TikTok dancing*!!!"

Mistake sighed. "My turn."

"Hey," Ebony shouted, "are you preparing to do a spell? You can't do that!"

"MY TURN," Mistake BOOMED.

David said, "Before anyone says anything, don't worry! Her tactics are fair! Since we're on the same team, it'd only be fair for the amount of turns to be split 50/50!"

Mistake clapped her hands together. "The Storm of Vengeance is about to KILL YOU ALL!!! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"

Player 2 (Mistake) maintains concentration, with contraception, on Storm of Vengeance.

Shed shouted, "IT'S OK GUYS, I KNOW YOU CAN'T HEAR ME BUT LAST TIME IT ONLY DID 10 DAMAGE, A PUNY AMOUNT!!"

Success! 4 Players take damage.

Player 1 (Ronald) takes 6 damage. She is now at 84/100 HP.

Player 3 (David) takes 6 damage. He is now at 94/100 HP.

Player 4 (Shed) takes 2 damage. He is now at 76/100 HP.

Player 5 (Ebony) takes 2 damage. She is now at 88/100 HP.

"HA! She's even WEAKER than before!" exclaimed Ebony, trying to be a main character having an internal monologue during an epic battle scene.

Mistake looked around nervously.

"I CAST-"

"I CAST-"

"I CAST-"

A chorus of voices surrounded her, each of them saying a different spell.

Mistake's eyes widened. "U-uh guys... What happened to the fair 50/50 turn system?? Ehe- Wait... They can't even hear me!"

Luckily, the rule of spellcasting was that if multiple spells are spoken at the same time, none of them work. Obviously.

Mistake waited for the others to stop talking over each other, and by then, the Deafness effect from the original Storm of Vengeance had faded.

"MY TURN!!!!" Ronald screamed.

Player 1 (Ronald) casts Magic Missile.

Three glowing darts appeared in the air and shot towards Mistake.

Fail! Player 2 (Mistake) does not take any damage.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ronald said calmly.
