Slime Rancher: Attack of The Rads!

Act 5: Tackled

This had to be the darkest, most unwelcoming cave Bea had ever been inside.

If she even looked outside of the Night Glasses' night vision lenses, the entire place was pitch black. Meanwhile, through the lenses, it was like a whole other world. A world where the pink slimes in the cave and some tabbies were actually hungry. The tabbies being hungry and upset were understandable, as why would HenHens want to live in a cave like this? No sun, no grass, no insects. But why the Pinks were hungry was a whole new thing. Bea looked around after popping the pinks some stray Pogo Fruit that the vac pack accidentally sucked up for something to why there was nothing for the Pink Slimes to eat. She soon found the answer.

Hidden away from the entrance to the cave, was a gigantic rock slime gorgo, sitting on some sort of rock shrine, its mouth agape, awaiting its next meal, no matter how small or large it was. This had to be the cause of the starvation of the Pinks. To prove herself even more right, a Pink Slime was lugging a Pogo Fruit up to the Gorgo, and tossed it into its gaping jaw. The gorgo swallowed the fruit whole without a second thought. In the middle of Bea's observing of the slime feeding the gorgo, Bea heard a distant sound of... Human Panting? She walked over to the entrance, only accidentally tackled by all 100 pounds worth of Mochi.

"Oh, so NOW you get my messages?"

"Look, in MY defense, I got that alarm clock of mine at a dollar store."

"Stupid question," Bea said as she pushed Mochi off of her to get up, "How did you find me?"

"Stupid question indeed, seeing how your 'homemade explosion' left large chunks of ruble everywhere."

"Oh, come on," Bea said, brushing herself off and offering Mochi her hand, which she took and lifted herself up, "It couldn't have been THAT bad."

"Bea, there was so much rock everywhere, it attracted Rock Slimes for mating season. It was pretty bad."

Bea sighed and rubbed the back of her neck nervously."So, where was this 'weird' thing you were talking about, because right now, all I see is a normal cave."

"The cave is the weird thing, Mochi."

"Well, then I say you're weirded out by normal things."

"Well, I haven't explored all of it yet!"

"Then how about we do just that?" Mochi said sassily, as she walked over to a passage Bea didn't see before.

"...woah..."
"What do you see, Mochi?"
"Mochi?"

Reluctant to enter, Bea creeped into the passage that Mochi had disappeared into. Only to see one of the most beautiful sights she had ever seen.

"...woooooaaaah..."
