<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: The rotted, sleep deprived tied up dragon is still hunged on a pole in Tao, after being given trial by their leader which he is at last free to go..but with a penalty of not being welcomed by all of Tao.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: On his adventures to find his arm, he eventually found Fei perched upon a gigantic rock across a river. Three other stones near her, and a giant tree. Malem was downright terrified, but eventually gained the courage to cross the river with the use of the trusty bridge. His little jelly body shaking half to death, but he eventually went to grab at Fei, who unfurled her wings and fluttered off towards Tao, leaving the little Ditto to faceplant against the rocks. He whined and pulled his rubbery face from the rock, his face flat like a Persian cat from the impact, but he eventually got his usual round shape back in his face. With his ears pinned back and fist clenched to his side, this little ditto was off on an adventure to retrieve the  princess  his arm back from the horrible  dragon  Fei who had taken it from him. Now, he's facing rocks and across the river is Fei with Mal's wiggling detached arm in her mouth. And this time it wasn't a bridge to cross, it was a lot of rocks, a lot of water, and all of this was nope on a nope sandwich for this terrified little ditto. He screamed at the top of his lungs, complete obscenities and incoherent babble to her as he shook his fist and flailed about throwing a miniature tantrum.


<MissSporkbutt>:thumb137275020: Momoko | Berry Punch!! | She was on guard duty at this hour, her armor-covered body resting against the poles that rose from the front entrance of Tao's camp. She was alone for the day, which was her favorite time to do her job -- nobody could catch her dozing off. She was sound asleep, snoring up a storm, when a sudden shriek brought her from her slumber. "Kyaa!" She screeched, getting up in a hurry and grabbing her wooden stick, holding it out in front of her defensively. "Who is theeeere~?:music:" She chimed, her eyes darting around looking for the culprit. "HELOOOOOO??!" She yelled out once again, wanting to make sure they were gone so she could get back to sleeping.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He's just hanging there where he was...can't really do much till someone can cut him down from here. Though he did heard some noises which he weakly looks up. ".....?"


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: His cheeks flushed a bright purple as the eye of the tiger somehow started to play softly in the background completely out of context, but let's just say the directors of this movie wanted an incredibly serious moment to happen for this actor. He glared in the direction and at the first leap, he landed on the first rock to head across the water. Though the music stopped on a sour note and he then grabbed hold of the rock like a cat not wanting bath time. Screaming like a small 6 year old little girl in horror at the water. "KEL! NO NO KEL KEL KEL!" That was the only thing he could muster out of himself as his voice cracked and now he started to cry with fear. His whole body trembling. Across the river, Fei spat out Malem's arm, now falling over and onto her back as she quacked and laughed in her general bird-like mannerisms

<MissSporkbutt>:thumb137275020: Momoko | Berry Punch!! | She stopped yelling for a moment and listened; her ears twitched at the sound of more screams, that didn't seem so far away as she thought. She smiled and looked in the direction the sounds were coming from, before setting down her stick and berry pouch for safe keeping. Then she took off in that general direction, completely forgetting about her job and letting her curiosity get the better of her. After a few minutes of walking, she made it to the river of Ceremonial Island, and took a glance around. "Anybody--" She saw Malem on the rocks, clutching to them for dear life. "Hello there!" Her sense of urgency nonexistent.


<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: Well..since those yelling are gone, he just went back to looking down..all tired and looked like he may pass out.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Malem had already forced himself to cross a good four rocks, whimpering and shaking like a little bowl full of jelly as he went along, making pathetic little mewls and whimpers, and trying to avoid the evil wetness as much as he can. When Fei overheard someone coming her way, her feathers ruffled and she unfurled her wings, fluttering away, and accidentally forgetting about Mal's detached arm. Malem's ears perked up at the sound of a voice, at first assuming he'd see Kel there to hop to his rescue like always, he saw someone completely different, a stranger, who's purple. His eyes lit up as he scrambled across the rest of the rocks as best as he could. In the process of his scrambling, Mal's detached arm on the ground decided it wanted to latch onto Momo's ankle for dear life, thinking that it was finally Malem who's beside it.


<MissSporkbutt>:thumb137275020: Momoko | Berry Punch!! | She stood there, just grinning at him. Watching quietly as he climbed to her side of the river. Stepping on her toes in excitement. "HI THERE!" She said, loudly. A new friend! Finally! Her whole day had been so boring so far.. she needed a bit more fun today~ "Momoko is super pleased to meet you! What is jelly man's name??" She said as she walked over to him, looking him up and down. She began circling around him. She'd never heard, nor seen this person before-- "Jelly is not from Tao?" She noted the missing arm. "...The jelly is missing a body part, too!" She continued asking him questions as she scanned him. "Does the jelly know the bird~? Where is he from? What is --" She poked his face. "--The skin made from?" Finally she stopped and sniffed him, before leaning her head close to him and looking at him in the eyes.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: He went to go latch onto her but stopped when she started pelting him with questions. Gazing at her with wide eyes as his smile slowly grew larger and larger the more and more she spoke. Drool dribbling down from the corner of his mouth as he fixated onto her. "Hi! Momomomomo!" He chimed out. "Mal is Em is Malem is Mal yes? YES! " he squeaked, not knowing what a Tao is, personally he doesn't even know what an Eon is but he lives there and just thinks it's name is Tribe. Nodding his head about Fei. "Bird Fei she nice." His gummy grin going even wider as he gazed up at her, eventually his gaze turning down to admire the rest of her attire until he saw his arm latched onto Momo's ankle for dear life. He squeaked with excitement as he bent down, grabbing his arm from her ankle, just popping it back on with a grin. Wiggling his fingers as he rubbed his shoulder.

<MissSporkbutt>
:thumb137275020: Momoko | Berry Punch!! | She was grinning ear to ear the whole time he talked, barely understanding what he was saying. But that was okay. " The big bad bird is just a pet of jelly's...nothing for momo to be afraid of, yes? And Jelly's name is Mal-em?" She moved her tongue and mouth again to form the word "Malem" -- she liked the sound of jelly better, though. She only stopped looking at him for a moment when she felt the hand grab her leg. "Hi there Jelly arm!" She watched him put it back. "WOAH! Jelly man can do that? Just like that?" She snapped as she said so. "Okay whatever! Momo doesn't care! What momo does care about is--" She spun around in her place. "Why was mister Jelly Malem man screaming so loud about the water??~" She chimed, before stopping dead. "Was there something in the water!!? DID IT HURT MALEM--!!"


<Nigrecent>
:thumb464602032: Malem: Nodding his head, as he slowly his behind Momo. "...There's a boy in the water." He said in a clear tone, unbroken, and his expression blank as he said this. Staring at the water with a frown. "...He's trying to get me." He said just as blank and eerie. Eventually he snapped out of it, shaking his head side to side before beaming up at her, trying to tug her away so they could get away from the water and this dreadful place. "Yeees! Mal arm does pop yes. It pop.. Mal not know why." He giggled and then started to skip ahead, happy to have made a new friend. "Why momomomo purple, yes?" cocking his head to the side.

<MissSporkbutt>:thumb137275020: Momoko | Berry Punch!! | She was taken back a bit by his response, but shook it off as quickly as he did. She ran up to catch up with him. "Momoko is purple because momo is an.." She stopped for a moment, then caught up to him again. "Momo doesn't remember what she is! But momo has purple feet and purple back-hands~" She brought them up in front of her and high-fived them as she walked. "Jelly and Momoko are going back to Tao Camp~?" She asked him, turning to him. "Jelly might not like it there. Everyone is very boring--" She shrugged. "Oh, and there is also red scary dragon tied up in the middle." She whispered loudly. "Dragon has been a veerrry bad boy.." She hissed, as they walked into the campgrounds. She forgot to ask him what tribe he was. Maybe he was just a Tao person she'd never met. And Momoko can trust friends, right? And Tao can count on MOmoko. So Tao will trust Jelly man. "That's him! But don't get too close. Dragon smells funny." She pointed a finger in Spike's direction.

<InfernoNick>
:thumb460955842: Spike: After a while of looking down, he hearded some people which he weakly looked up and sees about..two people. Course the monkey woman seems to be a guard here so thats common..but the jelly boy...he's never seen him before, which is new.



<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: He giggled as he sang along, eventually both of them making it into Tao. "Fun. Fun Fun fun~" He chimed enthusiastically, though his ears swiveled to what she explained about some sort of dragon in the center of town. The sad part is; Malem doesn't have a nose but he pretends he can smell others. His eyes lit up as he turned his gaze back to Momo. "Momomo? He no smell. He look silly." He giggled and poked at his mouth as he watched the tied up dragon man, walking closer to him to get a better look. "Rar is pretty like Momomo! Both pretty!" Letting out a little excited squeak as he poked at the ropes. "Why ropes? What game? This game?" He squeaked and glanced back at Momo. "Rope Mal too! Look fun!" He stated enthusiastically, wanting to participate in the tied up to a poll game as well.

<MissSporkbutt>:thumb137275020: Momoko | Berry Punch!! | "This isn't a game, silly Jelly!" She pinched her nose and covered her face with her hands from the smell, and began to untie the ropes with her tails. "Dragon did very bad things and was put here to make sure he did not hurt anyone else." She blinked. "But now dragon has to leave the camp -- why is dragon still here?" She scratched behind her neck. "Dragon should have left many moons ago. Momoko guesses nobody wanted to look at him." She cocked her head at him when the ropes were untied. "Dragon does not look very pretty today, Jelly.."

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Watching as she started to untie the ropes, he faceplanted against them, devouring the other half of the organic matter as quickly as he could. Eventually the dragon man was untied, though he was a little confused. "What do?" confused as to what he had done, only to stare at him as he pursed his lips and giggled. "Still pretty!" He giggled and did a little dance in place, amused at this random dragon creature, giggling as he latched onto the dragons leg in excitement at finding a new friend.

<InfernoNick>
:thumb460955842: Spike: He felt the ropes getting loose and once they're untied, he ploped onto the ground like a rock with a gruntm coughing out and breathing hoarsely. He weakly staggered to sitting up and looked to the boy..who was dancing and then hugged his leg. "...K...Kid...c...can you ge...get me back..in..E...Eon...?" He asked hoarsely.
 

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: He overheard him speak, knitting his brow as he fixated onto this big dragon man. Eon.. Eon Eon Eon.. Maybe he'll try to take him back to his house and they can eat berries together? Letting out an overly enthusiastic squeak as he let go of him, stumbling to a stand and tugging on his arm a bit. "Okay!" He chimed, though the thought of the river hasn't crossed his mind at all which will probably be the biggest downpoint of this quest, along with even trying to help this guy up in the first place.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He faintly smiled a bit and was tugged on the arm, which he tried to stand up but...his legs and body was all wobbly and just fell back down. "Rrgh...d...damn...i can't...stand...."


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Hearing he can't stand, he pressed his palms to his cheeks, squinting his eyes a bit. Kel walked when his head was bleeding with the help of a stick and Mal.. So, he thought harder, looking around for a stick. Eventually "PAH!" He coughed up a flimsy and curled stick due to how acidic Mal's system gets when he digests food. "You need stick.. Mm.." Looking around some more, he needed to find a good walking stick, and then help him move as well. Since the guy is so huge to him, he's not all that strong and knows that trying to support him wouldn't be the greatest since he's mostly gelatin basically. But, he pressed himself against his leg, eventually slowly forming like a pantleg as he moved with most of his might, eventually straightening the leg and getting it to try to be upright. "Nnggg!~" This was strenuous for the little Jelly ditto but either way, with the help of a stick with his other leg and to lean on for support, and hopefully Momo's help as well once she snaps out of her horrible smell coma she's in, it should all turn out well.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He blinked on the stick that was spatted out, which he gulped and looked to the jelly...who's doing whatever he may be doing to him which he gulped. "..Wh...What are..you..doing...?"


<DiryBubble-Tsu> :thumb455946873:Midnight: Midnight was on the border near Tao lands, but not quite on them. It had been weeks since Spike went to the games, and she'd been surveying the situation. In all honesty she was still furious, but she'd had more than enough time to calm down. Any day now someone would be coming to look for Spike's owner, to bring him home. She had to be calm if she was going to deal with this without causing anymore trouble.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: "T-Try move!" He said, still pressed and wrapped around the Dragons leg as best as he can, still forcing it to straighten more to try to get him to stand up straight. Though right now he looks like a strange light blue, opaque and semi-shiny splint against Spike's leg now. Unknowing of anyone else around them, but trying his best to help this guy with this strange game he was thrown into. Giggling a bit to himself in a bit of merryment.


<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He weakly nodded and tried to stand again, feeling wobbly since he hasn't moved in weeks..after being tied up. Course, with the jelly supporting one leg of his..he just wobbly dragged himself away from the pole. "..G...Got to..g..get...away...from here...."

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: As he moved he adjusted himself and made sure to contort his gooey body to make it a bit stiffer, eventually making it from the middle of Spike's thigh to his hip. Now that he's gotten himself upright, he ensured to help the leg move with ease with every step Spike tried to make the leg take. "Go go go go~ Vroom Vroom Vroom Vroom!~" He sang in a chipper tone as they moved along.


<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He just dragged himself out and along...with the jelly helping till he was out of the Tao lands, but only to cough a bunch which he stopped and wobbly fell to his knee. "...Uugh.."

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Once the man fell over and coughed, he popped himself off from Spike's leg. Eventually re-gaining his form as he searched about for a walking stick that's about the right size for him. Grabbing two of them, one shorter than the other by quite a bit as he dragged them with all of his might towards Spike. Almost popping an arm off in the process. But, he just hopped a bit and pointed down to the sticks. "Stick stick stick stick stick~" He chimed and grinned widely.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He slightly looked to the boy some and the sticks he kinda dragged for him. "..Nnnh...m...may work...i...hope..." He said as he wobbly reached for them and tried to stand again..wobbly.
 

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Seeing as he grabbed the sticks, he went back up to Spike's leg he had held onto before. This time forcing himself once more to be another splint from Spike's shin to his hip. Forcing Spike's leg to stiffen as he tried with all of his might to force his leg to get up more, as he helped him up. "Nng!" He struggled this time, but it's just hard for him to get a right position until he starts moving.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He was kinda now standing, no thanks to those sticks and that the jelly is on his leg again which he wobbly starts moving again..


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Once they started moving again he giggled and started his little moving song. Eventually adjusting himself good enough to help Spike walk along with it bit more ease than as choppy as last time due to slowly getting used to being a little blue leg brace for him.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: While he was dragging himself along, he took a whiff and bleched a bit since he really, really stinks..no thanks to having to go bathroom on himself since those guards refused to get him down and go properly. "Euugh...I really need a bath when we get back to Eon...i smelled like a pile of Bouffalant poo mixed with...being sprayed by a Stunky..." He muttered to himself.


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Thankfully Mal can't smell, but he laughed and chortled at what he said, Helping him as they went along, but they're taking the incredibly round about route compared to the route Mal had taken before. Screw that river, though they're headed right for Gyrados lake.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: While trying to get to Eon was a total pain in the ash since there's so many routes that lead to who knows where, he did notice a lake ahead which his eyes widened a bit and went over to it wobbly. "Ahh...guess my luck's...starting to...to change." He mumbled as he then stopped and looks down to his leg. "Err..y..you're doing...good but c...can you get off...for a bit? I...I need a bath..." He said to him, not knowing this boy doesn't have a nose...at all.


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Once they made it to the lake and he told him to get off. He popped off of Spike, eventually re-forming his shape as he giggled and hopped up towards it, but ensuring to stay a good few feet away from the river due to being too afraid to get close to it like a deer in headlights. Scratching his neck a bit as he watched it closely, just keeping his eyes fixated onto Spike as he smiled his big gummy smile to him.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He blinked a bit when he backed off but only and wobbly sat by the age of it..then starts stripping out of those clothes that may be all dirtied when he was tied up. After that was done, he weakly went into the lake and surfaces as he starts to bathe in it.


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Once he saw him enter the lake, he started to freak out and looked away. Maybe the man just wanted to kill himself? The fool. He scowled and curled up in a little ball, rocking back and forth. Eventually finding a handful of downed leaves to jam into his face so he can eat due to his nervous habit. "No no no no no no no.." Starting to cry now that this man he had just met, is now dead and consumed by that horrible water. Mourning the loss of his very short-lived struggling friend who liked to walk silly and say he smelled bad. He couldn't look at the lake, but his breath hitched as he rubbed his eyes and sobbed.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: While he was still batheing, he did heard some sobs and looks over to the boy..which is the answer of that. He was kinda confused on why he's crying..oh well, he went back to doing what he was doing..which now he's pretty much just removing the excreciated soiling remnants that are in his pants and starts washing them..along with the shirt. Of course, changing to new clothes may be a valid option but for now, he'll have to deal with this. After a while and done, he got out and got his soaked clothes back on..then took the sticks which he wobbly tried to get up. "..H...Hey..kid....are you o...okay...? "He asked, since those sobbings are making him a bit worried..even if its no reason.


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Once he overheard a voice, his ears perked up and he turned to see him perfectly fine, though soaked. But he looked fine. He ate his own mouth, sucking it into his face as he immediately stopped crying, gazing up at him with big kitten eyes as he started to do a little dance in place. Eventually his smile re-formed on his face as he ran up to Spike, hugging him as much as he could in a cheerful manner. "Rarr okay! Okay okay okay! Okay okay! Okay!" Though he was soaked and was getting covered with water, he didn't entirely care and what cared most was he didn't kill himself and overcame his suicidal tendencies to want to drown himself instead. This made him so happy that his friend is still alive and well and this made little Mal the happiest little thing ever. Accidentally coughing up the half-eaten leaves onto the ground though he still stayed latched onto Spike due to his anxiety and relief.

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He flusters a bit on the hugging which he almost fell over, blinking and raising a brow. "...Erm...o...kay...?" He said as he then looks around. "..Uhh...sh...should we be get...back to Eon now?"


<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Nodding his head as he nuzzled against Spike, eventually moving his body back to his leg to help him walk. Strangely the spot he had hugged, is now completely dry due to accidentally absorbing the liquid due to his natural habit of consuming when put under stress. Latching onto Spike's leg, he eventually re-formed himself and then forcefully lead spike along being the leg brace once more. Humming a cheerful little song to himself in merryment, more than enthusiastic that his new friend is alive. "Yes yes yes yes~"

<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He flusters a bit more on the nuzzling, before he looks down and always wondered on this boy's amazing transformation abilities...which he shrugged and just carries on dragging himself...wobbly like with those sticks.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Now as they went along, he had noticed a strange house off in the distance. A little confused by it, he thought that just avoiding it, along with the Origin camp would be the best. As both make it through the woods and through the Origin hunting grounds now. He chimed and sang nonsense songs that made little to no sense, along with mostly saying nothing other than humming and La's.


<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: While they travelled, he looks around and sees the strange house..which he wouldn't bother going to so he carried on. Right now, he's going through the forest and hunting grounds...which he sighs. "..I...I'm starting to...think we're lost.." He said.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: As they went along, he recognized these woods easily. They're pretty close to Eon now. After overhearing Spike he laughed and almost lost his shape. "No no no no no we no lost. Mal know where we go. Almost hommmeee~" He chimed as he then dragged him along more. Humming softly to himself to try to help Spike ease up and calm down.


<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: He blinked as he went along...wherever that ditto drags him off to which he rosed a brow. "..Err...well i...if you...say so.." He hoarsely said, coughing some.

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Eventually the gates of Eon could be seen through the thicket. He squeaked and started to quicken the pace a bit more, making his way closer and closer towards Eon. "Baaa daa daa daa~"

<InfernoNick>
:thumb460955842: Spike: He just walked as his wobbly legs can carry him..and those sticks. He looks around a bit in the process.


<Nigrecent>
:thumb464602032: Malem: And as strange as it sounds, he finally got Spike to the gates of Eon. More than enthusiastic to have brought his friend to his home. "Home~" He squeaked with delight, still holding onto his leg firmly.



<InfernoNick>:thumb460955842: Spike: By then, he looked shocked when they got to Eon's gate. Finally..home at last. "Well...f...finally back wh...where i belong..." He said as he then looks down to his leg. "..You can le...let go of me now..."

<Nigrecent>:thumb464602032: Malem: Once he said he can be let go, he popped off of his leg. Giggling as he grabbed Spike's arm firmly with his hands, pulling him along to bring him to his house. "Friend come nom nom nom.. Friend need nom nom nom~" He chimed excitedly, assuming his friend will stay with him like how Fei stays with him.. He's a strange little bugger who has a weird way of thinking, as if his friends are basically pets to him.

<InfernoNick>
:thumb460955842: Spike: He was grabbed by the arm, which he wobbly followed him. "....Erm...if thats your...way of saying food...o...okay.." He replied.
And so he's finally back home..but this is just the first part.
