Fragmented Mayhem 1: MHA

Mini Series: STP III

The Hero and The Princess

*tap*

I Feel My Feet Hit The Floor Where... I Look Up to See a Thick Forest Surrounding Me I Notice What I'm Wearing and Quickly Pat Myself Down Not Finding Anything at All How... I Have Like Twelve Pockets I Also Have No Memories Of How I Got Here I Don't Have Any Memories at All This Is Suspicious... I Notice Beneath Me a Dirt Path

You're On a Path In The Woods and At The End Of That Path Is a Cabin And In The Basement Of That Cabin Is a Princess

Where Is That Voice Coming From!?

You're Here To Slay Her If You Don't It Will Be The End Of The World

Have You Considered That Maybe I Want The World To End?

Of Course Not... Nobody Wants The World To Be Ended Maybe Nihilists Or Very Evil People You're Neither Of Those Right?

No I'm Not a Nihilist Bu I Do Feel a Bit Evil...

Wel-

Your Lucky I Don't Want The World To End... But I Have The Feeling You Aren't Telling Me Everything

Your Success Hinges On You Having Imperfect Information

So If She Doesn't Die The World Ends?

Yes...

I Sigh I Think He's Lying To Me Wait I know He's Lying To Me So I Stretch and Walk Down The Path In Seconds I Find Myself at The Bottom Of a Hill and See That There Is Indeed a Cabin at The Top

Before We Continue She Will Lie She Will Cheat She Will Do Anything In Her Power To Stop You From Killing Her

Let's See If She's Successful...

I Feel Movement On My Shoulder Seeing a Tiny Blue Bird Come To Life

Hero: We Aren't Really Going To kill her Were Supposed To Save Them Not Slay Them

I Shrug 

Ignore Him He Doesn't Know What He's Talking About

I Walk up The Hill and Into The Cabin

The Interior Of The Cabin Is Almost Bare The Air Is Stale And Musty and The Floor and Wall are Painted In a Fine Layer Of Dust The Only Furniture Of Note Is a Plain Wooden Table Perched On That Table Is a Pristine Blade

I Walk To The Table and Pick It up I Feel a Reluctance To Use It Something In My Head Is Telling Me To Not Use It

It Is Your Implement Use It To Slay The Princess

*thwonk*

The Blade Stands Upright In The Table I Won't Take It I Open The Door and Step Down

I Feel That's a Mistake But... This Is an Oppressive place The Air Feels Heavy and Damp a Hint Of Rot Filtering From The Ancient Wood If The Princess Really Lives Here Slaying Her Is Probably Doing Her a Favor

I Think She Heard Me Hit The Steps I Am Wearing Heavy Boots

Her Voice Softly Carries Up The Stairs

H-Hello Is Someone There?

Oh... She Sounds Adorable!

Hero: It's Hypnotizing, It's The Kind Of Voice You Only Need To Hear Once To Remember For The Rest Of Your Life
