ATO: ORDERRUNE - PART 8

—–

(DING!)

⚫️ Hello again, you pitiful fools.

Hey, Ordarius? Do us all a favor and just give up already. You’re starting to give me the creeps.

I’m with Maku on this one. You’re cracking under the pressure.

⚫️ You know, there is actually a Big Run going on outside right now. As such, I thought I would update the Asynchonous Rondo machine to be just as deadly as a Triumverate. They all are, but…this one I made some very nice upgrades to. Ta-ta.

(Ordarius leaves, as the Asynchonous Rondo machine activates. However, it suddenly spits out…a BOOYAH BOMB?!)

MOVE, YOU DUMBASSES.

(Nightflaid suddenly pushes us to the side.)

That was close. Thanks, Nightflaid.

Hiveless, give the order.

Everyone! ATTACK!

(We all begin attacking each layer of the Asynchronous Rondo. One by one, the layers are cut down.)

That was rather fun!

Not for me, it wasn’t.

(However, as soon as we try to grab the item it dropped, it respawns, this time with even more layers!)

⚫️ Did you really think I would let you all win? And this time, you will not be able to punch my face and disable it. Good game, you chaotic fools.

“HYDRO PUMP!”

“SCRATCH!”

(Suddenly, a water blast knocks down the layers lightning-fast, and what appears to be scratches like cat-claws scratch those layers up. Suddenly, two figures jump in.)

TEAM WATERNORM! What are you guys doing here?

“Yeah, it has been a while since you guys saw us, hasn’t it?”

“As for why we’re here: We’re a Rescue Team. It’s what we do.”

You certainly rescued us, alright. I loved how feisty your moves were.

⚫️ Oh for…How many of you are there?!

🃏 There are more than enough of us, Ordarius.

🌸 You mess with one member of the ColorStreak Battalion….

🪄 …you mess with all of us, as well.

⚫️ Grrr…okay, fine, I get your point. I shall be off. Ta-ta for now, you blithering idiots!

(Ordarius vanishes in a glitchy instant.)

🚀 Good to have you two back.

“It’s good to be back, Dystopiac.”

Can we have this reunion in the elevator? I’d rather not stay here.

Good idea.

Let’s get going.

(All of us run into the elevator, now with two familiar friends in tow.)
