Feather's POV

I felt the air get colder around me......

"W-what's Happening??" I stutter. Nobody answers me. Instead, Ki digs through a chest and pulls out a few blue potions.

"Anthony you idiot!" Ki mutters under his breath. Anthony punches him in the shoulder.

"Aww. Come on. Just like old times! Like when I always went by my alias!" Anthony said.

"Shut up, Giraffe" Ki said, pessimistically.

"Can someone tell me what's going on?!?" I shout, yet no reply.

"Dude. Come on! We haven't fought a boss in a while. Plus you promised last time I busted that we would fight a boss together." Anthony huffed.

"Yes! I know! But I didn't know she would be here!" Ki said, motioning his head over towards me.

"Really...... URGH.." Ki sighed, pulling a spell book out of the chest.

"Umm... Excuse me, Human? Can you tell me what's going on?" Smador said, tugging on Ki's sleeve. Ki shrugs him off and started throwing items on his work bench.

The ground began to rumble as Sebastian's eyes went wide.

"Uh oh....." He whimpered.

"Sebastian? What's wrong?! Do you know what's happening??!" I ask, a serious tone in my voice. Anthony snorts.

"Of corse he does. Are you scccaaared?" Anthony leered toward Sebastian.

The ground shook even more.


All of a sudden, I hear a large explosion as the front of the house is torn away, exposing it to a large machine.

Why did this machine look familiar.

"BWAH hah hah! Where are you, puny heroes?!?" A voice roared from the machine. Odd..... It kind of looked like a skeleton. And sounded eerily familiar....

"Great..... I'll have to fix that later..." Ki mumbled.

"Come one dude!" Anthony said, unsheathing a sword.

Ki scowled and grabbed me by the shoulders..

"Look. Stay in here. I guarantee you will be killed if you try to fight that boss with me and Anthony." He said, completely serious. I scoff.

"I can help! I want to help!" I say, hopping up from my chair and slipping into my wood armor.

My body still ached as I grabbed the silver sword resting in my bag.

Anthony chuckled.

And then stated laughing out of control.

"HAHAHA!! Are you serious?! She can't be serious..." Anthony said, eyes darting back from me and Ki.

Ki let out a dry laugh.

I stomped my foot.

"Of corse I'm serious!" I exasperated.

Anthony took a few steps towards me.

"No offense, Sweet heart , but...... You're just not strong enough... A lady like you is too soft and delicate for a beast like that...." Anthony said, smirking.

I narrow my eyes and punch him in the stomach. He grunted in pain.

Ki stifled a laugh.

"Did I ever mention that her name was ironic?" Ki chuckled.

Anthony rolled his eyes.

"BWAH? That was pretty funny....now.... Are you going to fight me or not?" The large machine cackled.

Ki waved his hand towards him.

"Yeah yeah, We'll be out in a minute..." He shrugged.

"C-come on guys, I don't have all night!" The machine whined.

The glowing red eyes seemed to spark a deeper shade.

"Just give us a moment, Skeletron Prime. Feather's being stubborn....... Again." Ki said, clearly agitated.

"Skeletron....... Prime?" I say, sweat forming in my palms.

"Indeed, my dear." Sebastian said, grimly. Skeletron Prime scoffed.

"Feather! Is that you!!? Well..... You failed trying to defeat me last time, let's see if you are equally as bad." Skeletron prime said, trying to intimidate me.

I felt my knees start to wobble.

"Intimidated are you, My Dear?" Skeletron roared with laughter. All of a sudden, I feel a piece of metal pick me up.

"AAAAHHHH" I scream as I'm lifted up into the air.

I hold on to what see's like the blunt side of a saw.

"YOU IDIOTS! GET ME DOWN FROM HERE!" I yell, as the house becomes distant.

"I swear when I get down there, I'm going to murder them." I murmured to myself.

"BWAH HAH HAH! Not if I do it first. Besides, why would they want to rescue a corpse?" Skeletron Prime cackled as he charged a laser beam at me.
