Casey grabs her whip and starts its mesmerizing motion. The end of the whip whistles through the air off the port side, thrashing the wisps advancing on the boat.

"Keep yer flithy tendrils off my hat, you stupid wieners!" she yells.

Defending the boat and going scorched earth on 'em!

Several of the poor unfortunate souls fade peacefully. The volcano’s intestines transform into blue plastic slides. Blood runs down the slide instead of water, but still, the transformation is an improvement.

Diamond fires the child-size squirt cannon into the cauldron.

B-B-B-BLArg-g-g-gh!!

pehh! phahh! pvvvh!


The Purple Cauldron blows a lot of steam as it jumps about.

Who are YOU to decide who gets to rest in peace, and who gets stuck on an insatiable quest for vengeance?!

The cauldron fires a lightning bolt at the Helm!

The remaining souls wail regrets—

"I waited in such a long line I was literally bored to death!"
"Me too, but by a drill!"
"You guys all had better deaths than me! Now I gotta give someone living a worse death! That’ll somehow make things better! HRAAAHH!!!"

Moving the boat using fairy magic was harder than it seemed. Especially when trying to dodge lightning bolts. Still she did her best even as she fired more water.

Casey fires a squirt gun cannon from the side of the boat and a glob of water arcs toward the Purple Cauldron.

Casey's whip flies toward one of the water slide intestines, wrapping around it. She pulls back on it, bracing herself against the side of the boat and trying to minimize the rocking from the regretful wisps.

Murasaki helps steer the boat, allowing it to just barely evade the magical lightning.

She addresses the souls. "Restless spirits! Even if you manage to kill us, it will not bring you peace. Perhaps you are not regretful about your deaths, but rather, how you lived? You will only be able to find peace by facing your regrets and accepting them."

Murasaki steers the fairy-dusted boat away from a bolt of lightning. But the restless souls batter the boat, rocking it violently! Thanks to Gong-Ju’s earlier spell, none of our Dear B☢️MBSHELLS lose their footing!

Murasaki remains poised at the helm. She gives sound advice, and the poor unfortunate souls calm down. Their expressions become ponderous. All of the wisps glow, and one bows before they fade to the great beyond.

The cauldron does not like this. And it’s pretty miffed from Diamond and Casey squirting water into its top. It closes its lid as Gong-Ju fires, and grows eight spindly legs raising its "head" to eye-level with your flying boat!

Welcome to my parlor said the spider to the fly,
it says, trying to be villainously witty. But for accuracy’s sake, it adds,
…ing boat.

It makes an awkward face, then BOOM! a ball of fiery smoke billows from the cauldron! A white sticky cannonball flies into the air, arcing toward you! The ball un-crumples and unfolds, forming a net—or… an Instant Spider Web?!?!?
OOC:
Dear B☢️MBSHELLS, defend the ship!

Defensive Results:
• If you roll 💥💥💥💥💥💥, the boat remains ROCKED.
• If you roll 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥, the webbing actually steadies the boat so it’s no longer ROCKED.
• If you roll 💥💥💥💥💥 or less, the boat is IN A STICKY SITUATION!

(For ☢️DEFENDER, I’ll count each 💥 twice and add 💥💥.)

Casey lashes out with her whip, sending it into the unfurling web as she tries to cut enough strands to avoid getting stuck.

Then she takes one of her throwing daggers and stabs it into the underbelly of the cauldron.

When she was younger she had thought that taking ‘flight’ as extra credit in school would be an easy ‘A’ but, that was not the case. Diamond remembered that plucky rabbit Pepper Rabbit quite well and his instructions were exactly the ones she followed today. The voice from long ago was in her head as she followed Pepper’s instructions, "Do a barrel roll!

Then right after that ram the spider legs. Though, to be fair, giant spiders weren’t part of Pepper’s course. Maybe that was why she missed?

Murasaki steers their boat right for the cauldron, slamming a few of its spider-like legs! Following up, she makes a U-turn and tries to spray the cauldron, but the water doesn't hit its mark.

👿👿👿👿 4 UNFORTUNATE SOULS
____________________________________


The B☢️BMSHELLS work together to defend the boat! Their attacks are mostly harmless, but Murasaki focuses completely on attacking!

As she rams into the spider legs, the boat is deflected upward. The bow strikes the underbelly and cracks form—splitting the cauldron into four!

The quarter-cauldrons each wear a face and start seven feet tall on spindly legs. Purple steam billows from each "head" and solidifies to form bulky elastic arms!

The Purple Cauldron introduces himself to you—or themselves, as four distorted voices speak in unison:

We are Four Unfortunate Souls for whom Hell wasn’t good enough. So we left Hell in search of a new eternal home. Your zombified bodies will do nicely.

Prepare to meet your makers.


One quarter-cauldron hops aboard your boat. Purple water pours from his head, rinsing the boat free of fairy dust. The boat plunges into the liquid at the bottom of the volcano—

—which luckily for you is no longer acidic!
Gong-Ju falls from the boat into the water. She’s in her mermaid form. The quarter cauldron before her becomes a purple merman. I am King Shiton. I demand you offer me your mortal form without a fight.
OOC:
Gong-Ju, ㊙️SHIELD HIS FLOUNDERING MAGIC WITH YOUR TRIDENT!
• On a 💢MISS, you not only get hurt, but your attack will be nerfed this turn.
(NERFED = You need a 💥💥COMBO or better to harm a foe.)

Casey is flung from the boat and onto an intestine-waterslide. She slides down a corkscrew curve while a quarter-cauldron grows to an immense size. Its gorilla hand is as large as the damsel’s entire body! I am King George. Blondes in red dresses are like hot dogs with that mustard people pass to each other through limousine windows. If I’m to possess a snack such as yourself, I think I’ll chew on you a bit to savor the flavor.
OOC:
Casey, 🕹️DODGE HIS GRABBY HAND BY SLIDING AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
• On a 💢MISS, you not only get hurt, but your attack will be nerfed as long as you are held in George’s giant hand.
(NERFED = You need a 💥💥COMBO or better to harm a foe.)
• Also, per button-mash you can’t get a second action unless you only use buttons (㊙️ and/or ☢️). If you don’t want to lose your attack, you can simply not defend and use ㊙️+☢️ to attack twice. If the first attack is a 💥HIT or 💥💥COMBO, the second attack will not be nerfed.

Diamond is out of the boat. But then, she can fly, so it’s really not a problem. What might be problematic is that the quarter-cauldron is a boy with a bottle of bright green liquid in hand and two 30-Liter bottles strapped to his back. One bottle contains So-So Soda. The other, little white candies branded as Methos.

Both bottles are connected to a tube. A ripcord opens both at one—liquid pours through the tube, up into the Methos bottle, and FOOM! The purple boy flies—rocketing himself straight at the fairy princess! I am King Dink! I’ll make you drink! It’ll make you tall and big and plump as a pig!
OOC:
Diamond, 🕹️DON’T GET BOTTLED!
• On a 💢MISS or a 💥 HIT, you grow to a whopping FIVE-FOOT-THREE!
(At FIVE-FOOT-THREE, you can’t fly or use the 🕹️.)
• Also, you get hurt on a 💢MISS from the glass shattering around you as you grow inside the bottle.

Murasaki remains on the boat, and finds herself standing toe to toe with a purple pirate. I am Captain Buzzard. Show me your moves!

The captain holds out his rapier and waits.
OOC:
Murasaki, instead of defending normally, 🕹️USE A SECRET MOVE THAT YOU HAVE NOT YET USED!
• On a 💥HIT, the Captain will counterattack your next attack if the attack is also a 💥HIT.
• On a 💢MISS, you get hurt and take double damage if your attack is a 💥HIT.
• On a 💥💥COMBO, the Captain will fail to counter attack. If your attack is a 💥HIT, you will inflict double damage against the captain!

"You know all soda is bad for teeth. I don’t think anyone should be drinking it and I especially won’t be. However I will put you in time out young man!" She tries to dodge the bottle toss and fire some stinging bolts at her new opponent.

Gong-Ju's tail pumps the water behind her, propelling her away from King Shiton's attacks. She blocks with her trident and sneers. "How about 'no?!?" she exclaims, striking back!

Murasaki plants her fist in her palm and bows to her opponent before introducing herself. "I am Murasaki. If you wish to see my moves, then watch carefully."

She shifts into a measured combat stance and kicks off the deck with great force, closing the distance between her and Captain Buzzard in the blink of an eye.

Secret Move #0100: One Hundred Blows

Before the captain can even take a breath, Murasaki traps him in a flurry of rapid-fire kicks from her dominant leg. Each hit isn't terribly strong, but they quickly add up for a devastating amount of damage. She ends the barrage by switching legs and kicking him up into the air.

As she comes out of the corkscrew turn, Casey sees the big ape arms reach out and grasp at her. So she arches her back to minimize friction with the slide, crosses her arms on her chest, and points her toes down, trying to make herself into a bomshell rocket.

"It's poooponnnnn!" she manages to say as she picks up speed and the slope increases.
