The last stand
“Hmm… what am I going to do… Should I retreat?”
I swapped places with Ricard to defend the Catacomb area, but this is too much even for me…
A swarm of fairies is assaulting our dungeon. Even if the narrow corridors and low ceiling shut up their flying advantage, we can’t hold them back. The skeletons are ok as ranged units, but they aren’t strong enough to fend off so many fairies, and every time we clash, more of our units die.
I could ask for reinforcements, and maybe Ricard could send here Andreu’s stitched… but they will only serve as meatshields in this situation and achieve nothing at all.
“I’ll retreat and join Baldy in our last stand.”
I turn around and go back in our dungeon core’s direction, but when I turn around the corner, I see something unexpected.
“Hey! Where are you going, succubus? Won’t you stay with us and play a little longer?”
In front of me, one of the two enemy players is blocking the passage.
“How did you get here!?”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk! If you want to know, you must first beat me! He, he, he!”
I don’t have time for this, the other player going to get here soon! But how could she be blocking my way when she was behind me not too long ago!?
No, Laura, don’t forget we put a secret tunnel to facilitate the movement through the dungeon. She must’ve found and used it. But how!? In this maze of identical passages, how could they find the secret tunnel!?
“I found you! He, he, he!” From behind, an identical fairy appears and flies closer to my position. She looks at me with her eyebrows furrowed, puffing out her chest, and her hands on her hips, trying to look imposing. “Were you trying to run away? You’re a bad kid, you know!?”
These two are the enemy players. They use identical fairy champions and their speech patterns and behavior are the same too.
The only differences between them are the place they wear the hair ornament, which they do on opposite sides, and the skills they have: one can use heavy single-target skills and the other has wide-area attacks. I fought with them several times, and I still don’t know which is which because they like to swap and pretend to be one another. They’re so annoying!
“Oh, no…”
This is it. There’s nothing more I can do.
I turn right and enter one random passage. I’m going to make them waste some time, while I look for something.
“Here it is!”
I quickly pull the hidden lever and the black bulb turns on. The red bulb is used to signal everybody to go back to the core to defend, but the black bulb has a more sinister meaning: to tell everybody you’re done for. And what better color for this than black?
It’s fun that black light, which doesn’t exist in real life, can be used here.
I’m sorry Andreu, I couldn’t follow your orders. I never expected to get cornered like this! Now that I was finally getting recognized by him, I had to screw this up! I hope he doesn’t get angry.
Ricard, please, defend the core until the end! We need to resist until Andreu destroys the enemy team’s dungeon core!
“Sofia, she’s here! Hello! You’re not running? Did you get tired?”
“What are you saying, Andrea!? Look at her face! She got tired of playing tag and now wants to play another game! Which game we’ll play next, lady? Squashing bugs is funny, right Andrea? He, he, he!”
“Yes! Let’s squash some bugs! He, he, he!”
The two players chuckle and look at one another, hiding their evil smiles with their hands.
“Oh, sure, let’s play. I just had some work to do, but now, we can play for as long as you want! I must warn you, the games I play are a little different and sometimes, the other players get hurt, you know?”
I lick my lips seductively as I grip my whip and make a few test swings. If I’m going to die anyway, let’s enjoy this as much as possible.
