Misadventures of Melonhead

Chapter 8

Melon woke up the next day and noticed Lemon was cooking something in the makeshift kitchen, the burners worked surprisingly well. Melon yawned, "Good morning, Lemon. Are you feeling any better?" She stood up and stretched. Lemon turned to her for a moment before going back to cooking. "Yeah, I'm better now. I think I hit my head on something on the way down from the portal I can only assume took us here." He grabbed a few plates.

Melon smiled, "That's good, what're you making there?" She asked smelling the air. "To be completely honest, I have no idea. I just hunted a few random animals with Lime and now I am cooking them" Lemon chuckled a little and put the food on the plates.

Melon smelled the food a little, "I mean it smells pretty good, I am gonna go get everyone else, okay?" She asked beginning to walk into the hallway. Lemon nodded and Melon started walking into people's room. She walked into Ivory's room, it smelled like cigarettes, which wasn't surprising to Melon, Ivory was always a smoker. It was also fairly messy compared to the living room.

"Ivory, Lemon made breakfast if you want any," Melon said smiling at her. Ivory sat up and said, "I'll be out there in a little, I need some time to wake myself up."

Melon simply nodded and got everyone else up. After they were done eating breakfast, Melon said, "I think it's about time I face Glitched with no fear, to at least weaken her." She walked towards the door. Knowing the rest couldn't change Melon's mind, all they could do was pray for her.

Melon nervously but confidently walked outside and began searching for Glitched, she wasn't anywhere near the good bunker, but it was almost like Glitched knew what she was planning. 'Okay so now that I'm looking for her, she's not appearing anywhere. How convenient' Melon thought, about to walk around to see if she could find Glitched.

The destruction Glitched caused was astronomical to Melon, she hadn't even seen anything like this in movies. She noticed that some parts looked exactly like Glitched's timeline, which made sense because it's the same areas.

Melon then encountered Cantaloupe again. She wasn't exactly surprised, just caught off guard at the fact. Soon enough he started talking to her, "Look at all of this chaos that happened...simply because you didn't have the guts to kill another version of yourself, Melon." He said trying to guilt trip her.

Melon sighed, "I promise you, this isn't because I didn't end her. She just has way too much hatred for someone to handle." Melon said making herself feel a little better.

Cantaloupe chuckled "But think about it this way, that means you do too. You're just as much of a monster as she is. You two are the same person" He began to grin

Melon was trying not to let herself believe him. "What do you even want from me, Dad?" She asked getting a little bit aggravated. Cantaloupe just grinned more, he didn't say a word. 'Jesus he gets annoying with that. Always have something to say until I ask what he wants.' Melon angrily thought.

Melon tried to walk away and continue looking for Glitched but Cantaloupe used his magic to stop her from moving, "Aww leaving so soon?" He said creepily as Melon tried her best to break free from his magic. "What could you possibly want with me that is so important, you have to stop me from saving millions of lives, father? Enlighten me." Melon said very angrily. This is what Cantaloupe wanted. He wanted to get her to hate him enough that hatred would start running from her eyes, overflowing.

Cantaloupe said, "What's wrong? Don't want to stay with your old man?" He began teasing her. Melon was trying to keep her calm and managed to break free from his magic by teleporting to a random part of the world.

'Great, now I don't know where I am. I doubt Glitched is even over here.' Melon began walking in a seemingly random direction. She began humming to herself. She started to observe the area she was in. It looked like it used to be a snowy area until Glitched came. There were craters in the ground.
