OCTale: Pacifist [Editing]

6) THE GREAT CASTELLAR! [Edited]

I walk up to the next puzzle, hands on my hips.

"The sign at the side says you have to turn all the Xs into Os. Like tic-tac-toe, right?" Luke reads, and I look over at him, smiling.

"Thanks! I couldn't read Castellar's handwriting. This should be pretty easy." I laugh, preparing to 'skate' on the ice.

I succesfully slide towards the first X, abd like the sign said, it turns into an O. I continue in this manner until only two Xs remain. Sliding downwards, I head towards the X.

...Wait, I just passed it? I swear I calculated that slide right!

I look ahead, and a sense of dread fills me.

I'm headed straight towards the drop!

"TYLER!" Luke panicks as I drop, flying quickly towards me, and catching me just before I hit the ground.

"Hey, nice save! I never knew you cared so much, Luke!" I flirt, as he drops me into the snow.

"Before you say it, this is nothing to do with the fact you bought me ice cream." He blushes, crossing his arms. I giggle a little, and stand up.

"I-It was really good ice cream, okay?" He defends, as I look around.

"Anyway, where are we?" I ask, and Luke fades back into his normal personality.

"Seems to be a clearing...with these things." He explains, gesturing to the right of him.

I look towards the side and see an impressive snow sculpture of Castelllar. "She must have spent a while on that, huh? Unlike Impact...that's just a lump of snow with his name drawn on it." Luke appreciates. I giggle.

"Alright, let's go back up to the puzzle! I can do it this time!" I cheer.

I successfully solve the puzzle, this time not slipping off. I stand on the last X switch, and a bridge opens up before me. Luke applauds my efforts. Still sliding, I cross the icy bridge.

Luke flies towards the other side, trying to catch up with me, and he stifles a laugh as I come out of the tree clearing.

"What's the matter? Is there something on my face?" I smile, Luke brushing the snow off my head.

"The snow on your head looked like a hat! It doesn't matter now, though. Let's keep going." He smiles, as we continue on to see-

"Hey human!" Castellar smiles again, and I sigh.

"Please... it's Tyler." I remind her...again.

"Okay Tyler! But you're really gonna love this puzzle! It was originally made by Dr. Sam, but I edited it to make it more fun! You see, when I flip the switch here on this EmmaBox 3000.." Castellar gestures towards a blue, rectangular box , "It will generate a random puzzle! Even I won't know the answer! Nyeh hehe heh!"

The floor cycles through several different rainbow colours as she flips the switch, until the puzzle finally stops. Castellar spins out of sight as I observe.

There is just a pink line going straight to the other side, surrounded by red. " Too easy!" Luke whines. I agree. This one was probably rigged so I would be able to complete it.

I shrug and head towards where Impact is standing. "By the way, have you seen that outfit Castellar's been wearing?" He mentions.
