(The scene opens to Cosmic and Lizun arriving back at the base as they approach Lizun’s room)
Lizun: You didn’t have to follow me you know Cupcake. I’m okay really.
Cosmic: Sorry, I just had to be sure.
Lizun: Aww is my Cupcake concerned for me?
Cosmic: Of course I am, y-
(Lizun puts her arm around Cosmic’s shoulder)
Lizun: I do appreciate it though, nice to see you care.
Cosmic: Why wouldn’t I, to someone who’s basically my best friend?
Lizun: Oh now THAT’S an honor I shouldn’t let go to waste.
Cosmic: I-I mean, it’s not that crazy…
Lizun: It is to me! After all, first Titanian hybrid known to us decides I’m her best friend!
Cosmic: W-Well-
(Lizun lifts up Cosmic and hugs her tightly)
Cosmic: HNN!!
Lizun: I’m the luckiest girl in the world!
Cosmic: H-Happy…for you…! S-Spine…
(After a moment Lizun drops Cosmic)
Lizun: Ah Cupcake, you’re truly the best.
(Cosmic stands up. She presses her hands against her back pushing forwards as a crack is heard)
Cosmic: T-Thanks Lizun.
Lizun: Don’t mention it!
(Cosmic smiles a bit as the two enter Lizun’s room)
Lizun: Well thanks for escorting me, Cupcake.
Cosmic: I’m just glad you’re doing better after that demon became your ex.
Lizun: Yeah, that…that was not fun.
Cosmic: I can imagine…
Lizun: Still at least you were there. And since you saved me there, want me to award you with a fantastic massage?
Cosmic: Tempting as that sounds, considering the damage to my back just now, I’m thinking I’m gonna go back on patrol in the city. Maybe see if I can’t find more demons.
Lizun: Aww you sure?
Cosmic: Yeah not sure what t-
(Lizun smiles and feels Cosmic’s back)
Lizun: I mean, I don’t think you’ll last long with how cramped your back is.
Cosmic: It…is a bit stiff.
Lizun: Then how about you just relax for a few minutes Cupcake? And let me take care of you?
Cosmic:.... Jeez… It’s always so hard to say no to you. Your charisma is too damn good.
Lizun: I live to please! Now how about we get you relaxed?
Cosmic: … If you insist.
(Lizun smiles at Cosmic as the scene cuts to Nathal with Danea outside the city looking around)
Nathal: Isn’t it odd how Cosmic can track those demons down?
Danea: It is a bit…interesting I’ll admit.
Nathal: I mean, feels like she can just sense the bastards.
Danea: Must be part of whatever Nakal’s experiments were. Notes Bellina and Cosmic gathered at that lab suggests that.
Nathal: Man poor girl. Experimented like that.
Danea: On the plus side, she has amazing powers, including absorbing other powers.
Nathal: Still hate to imagine what’s going through her mind right now with info like that…
Danea: Whatever it is, so long as it leads to the defeat of these beasts and the liberation of this planet, we’ll need it on our side.
Nathal: Heh, well we’ve been lucky with that so far! First the demons, then Nakal!
Danea: And then this degenerate empire will know what we’re all about.
Nathal: Heh, brutal language coming from you of all people.
Danea:...You know me, sometimes I let the emotions slip out too much. Still, we’ll beat them. We just have to.
Nathal: It’s all good boss. Long as you got your head in the game.
Danea: Trust me it’s all there. But seems no sign of demons right now. I’m gonna head back for now.
Nathal: I think I’ll make another lap or 12.
Danea: Just don’t get careless.
Nathal: When do I ever slip up?
(Danea and Nathal smirk as Danea flies off)
Nathal: Let’s see what I can find.
(Nathal speeds off as the scene goes back to Cosmic’s room)
Cosmic:... How do I always end up in your arms like this huh?
(Lizun is seen smiling as she is seen holding Cosmic)
Lizun: Hehe, not sure, but it’s fun! I love holding ya.
Cosmic: I know but you were just giving me a massage and-
(Lizun pokes Cosmic’s cheek)
Lizun: Boop! Hehe.
Cosmic:...*smirk* You’re weird.
Lizun: And you’re cute.
(Lizun presses her face against Cosmic’s face and rubs against her)
Cosmic: Hehehe, jeez.
Lizun: Ah Cupcake, I can’t wait for this mission to be over. We can spend loads more time together.
Cosmic: Y-Yeah uh, I’m definitely not against that.
Lizun: Once we’re done, you can come back to our home planet. See the origins of our people.
Cosmic: Hm… I know Nebula has been curious about that. And I guess I am to.
Lizun: All Titanians like to remember home and stick to it. It’s an amazing feeling!
Cosmic: Well if you like it, I’m sure I would.
Lizun: Then it’s a date.
Cosmic: Ye- ….. Huh??
Lizun: Heh, you heard me!
Cosmic: A-A date?
Lizun: That’s right.
Cosmic: *Blushes* U-Uuh…. I-I-I- C-Can we not s-sa-
Lizun: Aww. My Cupcake’s shy again.
Cosmic: N-N-No I-I ju-just….
Lizun: *giggle* You’re such a hot mess.
Cosmic: W-W-Well uhhhh…
Lizun: This is why you’re so fun to tease. It’s so cute.
Cosmic: S-Shut up…
Lizun: It’s true!
(Lizun just hugs Cosmic again)
Lizun: Soooo cute!
(Cosmic blushes again)
Cosmic: I don’t think I’ll ever get…fully used to this.
Lizun: Hehe, fine by me. Just means more fun playing with you.
Cosmic; Y-You’re lucky you’re my best friend here…
Lizun: Hehe I know.
(Cosmic shakes her head as she smirks)
Cosmic: S-So uhh…n-now what?
(Lizun just smirks at Cosmic who gets a sense of dread)
Cosmic:... I don’t like it when you smirk and say nothing…
(Before anything else could be said, comms suddenly go off for Cosmic)
Cosmic: U-Uh… I should… take that.
Lizun: Go for it.
(Cosmic nods and answers her comms)
Cosmic: Um, hello?
Nathal: *Voice* Hey Cosmic.
Cosmic: Oh Nathal what’s up?
Nathal: *voice* I think I found another demon thing.
Cosmic: ! Y-You have?
Nathall: *Voice* I’m a few miles away from it. I’ll send you my location. Wanna come down and help me out?
(Cosmic looks over at Lizun)
Cosmic: Uhh, y-yeah sure. I can be there.
Nathal: *voice* You good? You sound unsure.
Cosmic: Y-Yeah I-
Lizun: *Whispers* I’ll be fine. Go on.
Cosmic:... Yeah I’ll be right there.
Nathal: *Voice* Great. See ya in a bit.
(Cosmic hangs up)
Cosmic: Are you sure? I wanna make sure you’re okay s-
(Lizun puts a finger to Cosmic’s mouth)
Lizun: Shhh. I’ll find more fun somewhere else while you’re gone, it’s no big deal! You know me, I always find a way to have fun.
Cosmic: Uh…R-Right, just…be careful and don’t get into any bad situations.
Lizun: Heh, I’ll be just fine. You go help with those demons.
(Cosmic nods as Lizun lets her go and starts to leave)
Lizun: Good luck Cupcake!
Cosmic: Thanks! I’ll be back later.
(Cosmic leaves as Lizun smiles)
Lizun: Such a cutie. Hmm…
(Lizun stands up)
Lizun: Well, how about I go find some other fun in the meantime? Hmm.. Maybe I could go see that massage girl again. Sure.
(Lizun leaves the room as Cosmic is seen flying leaving the city)
Cosmic: Demons getting more active. Wonder if Archeon’s about to make his move yet?
(Cosmic thinks as she flies)
Cosmic: We should definitely make time to prepare. Not to mention this Titan thing that’s going to be here soon. *sigh* So much to consider… And that Nakal ass isn’t helping… What is he plotting next?
(Cosmic soon flies over some seas. She looks around and soon spots a large island. She lands on it)
Cosmic: What could Nathal be doing way out here?
(Cosmic looks around on the beach and into the forest, trying to find Nathal)
Nathal: *voice* Yo Cosmic!
(Cosmic looks and sees Nathal waving from the treeline)
Cosmic: Oh there he is.
(Cosmic flies over to him and lands next to him)
Nathal: Glad you could make it.
Cosmic: Pretty far from the city don’t you think?
Nathal: Pays to be sure. Not to mention I’m pretty sure the demons won’t stop at the city.
Cosmic: Hm, true. Still, kinda surprised it’s so far.
Nathal: Either way, we’ll take care of it won’t we?
Cosmic: Yeah. So what are we dealing with?
Nathal: I haven’t seen a demon, but I did see one of those weird alter things you find.
Cosmic: You did?
Nathal: Yeah. No black mist or anything, I imagine it’s done doing… whatever it is it was doing. And a demon must be nearby.
(The two walk off)
Cosmic: You think it might be in this forest?
Nathal: That or in the waters.
Cosmic: So fight some forest creature, or sea monster sounds like.
Nathal: Either way, two Titanians will make this an overkill.
Cosmic: Hehe yeah.
Nathal: Heh, let’s get looking. Come on!
(The two run off as the some nearby vines move around. The two run around looking at the various parts of the forest)
Cosmic: Hmm..
Nathal: Something up?
Cosmic: Oh just remembered something I, or what Nebula saw as a child.
Nathal: What’s that?
Cosmic: You ever seen a forest where trees have eyes and mouths?
Nathal: Can’t say I have.
Cosmic: Imagine if the forest was alive.
Nathal: Jeez where did you get an idea like that?
Cosmic: From a video game believe it or not. Basically a virtual fiction if you will.
Nathal: Hm…It does sound awesome.
Cosmic: Yeah. But so far I haven't seen anything like that for real.
(As Cosmic said that she notice a vine pull away from a nearby tree and stops walking)
Cosmic:.....
Nathal: Now what’s up?
Cosmic: Are there…. Animals on this island?
Nathal: Not that I’ve seen.
Cosmic: Hmm…
Nathal: What? Did you see something? Hear something?
Cosmic: Maybe…Let’s just keep going.
Nathal: Right lets- ! COSMIC!
(Before Cosmic could turn she’s ensnared by vines and pulled away as she yells out.)
Nathal: Cosmic!
(Nathal is about to run after her, when the ground shakes. He looks around as suddenly a number of trees gain eyes and large mouths. Pulling their roots out the ground they stand up)
Nathal:... Oh boy….
(As Nathal thinks of what to do, Cosmic is seen being dragged through the woods)
Cosmic: C-Crap crap! What is this!?
(Cosmic is dragged deeper and deeper till she’s finally held up in what appears at the heart of the forest. She looks around and notices in the center, a giant flower. Purple petals that are closed up, and a giant blank stem)
Cosmic: What the hell kind of flower is this?
???: Youuuuuuu…..
Cosmic: ! Who said that?!
???: You’re mortal…. And yet… I sense… Him…
Cosmic: “Him”?
(The flower begins to open up. Inside, a humanoid feminine creature appearing to be made of plant matter and flesh is seen, black eyes, sharp teeth, and glowing yellow spines along its back as the flower is seen filled with teeth)
Cosmic: Ooooh…demon…
???: I smell my lord…
(Cosmic is pulled close to the demon. It leans in and sniffs her making her recoil)
???: Oh… Yeeees…
Cosmic: You mind?
???: It’s you… The one who my lord chose.
Cosmic: If you mean Archeon, you can tell him if you ever see him he can-
(The demon gently grabs Cosmic’s face)
Cosmic:....
???: Yes…I can sense it…feel it…He has chosen you.
Cosmic: Do you mind?
???: For a mortal… It’s not a bad choice.
Cosmic: Hey lady I said-
(The demon just caresses Cosmic’s cheeks)
Cosmic:....Uhh, you good?
???: To be this close with my master… Oh it brings such joy…
Cosmic: I’m… Not Archeon you know so…. I again ask if you’re good.
???: I’m fine now that I have you.
Cosmic:...I don’t…like the sound of that.
???: I have been waiting for my lord’s return since I arrived in this plane of reality. But now… You’re here.
Cosmic: Uh… Huh. Listen do you mind letting me go?
???: Oh ho not a chance.
Cosmic: S-Seriously?!
???: I can’t let you go. I can’t bear the thought of losing you.
Cosmic: I don’t even know you lady!
???: Oh you will, trust me.
Cosmic: Uhhh, help!? Nathal!?
???: Don’t mind the other mortal. He’s of no interest. My children will entertain him.
(Cosmic growls and tries to get her arms free from the vines)
Cosmic: G-Get! These off! Me!
???: Hehe, you’re a squirmy one. I like that.
(More vines come up)
???: Make it more fun.
(The vines come up and wrap around Cosmic tightening the hold as Cosmic finds it harder and harder to move)
Cosmic: D-Damn it!
(The demon gently grabs Cosmic’s chin and makes her look over at her)
???: What is your name mortal?
Cosmic: Why should I tell you?
???: You don’t have to, I can always make you anyway.
Cosmic: Then you’re not getting it!
???: Hehehe.
(The demon inhales then breaths out purple dust into Cosmic’s face)
Cosmic: Gah! W-What the?!
???: This outta lighten the mood.
Cosmic: Mood?? W-What do-...you…nngh…
(Cosmic’s vision gets distorted as everything becomes more colorful. She groans at this, feeling dizzy and tired)
Cosmic: W-What’s… G-Going….?
???: Just let it happen mortal. It’ll be okay. I will be here for you.
(Cosmic’s eye begin to change color. The scene cuts to Nathal as he dodges a vine from a tree. He speeds off and cuts through a tree breaking it in half. He turns back to it, only for it to suddenly reattach itself)
Nathal: Oh, okay that’s just not fair.
(Nathal dodges another tree)
Nathal: Gotta get pass these guys!
(Nathal uses heat vision to slice several in half. He lands looking around. Only for the halves that were cut to grow new halves, double the tree’s numbers)
Nathal: This… Might take awhile, hang on Cosmic!
(Nathal speeds off as the scene returns to Cosmic)
Cosmic: Nnnn…
(Vines hover around Cosmic, inspecting her)
???: Oh now what to do with you?
(The vines keep inspecting Cosmic)
???: This mortal is different from the other mortals. Maybe it’s because you’re in there my lord. *Content sigh* Oh my lord… How I missed you. How I long for the day to be in your arms.
Cosmic: I….ugh…y-...
???: Hehe, still, I can always play with your host. Surely that will keep me entertained.
(Cosmic is pulled over to the demon)
???: Wouldn’t you agree?
Cosmic: Hnnnn…
???: Heheh. Yes it would. But first… What’s your name?
Cosmic: Nn…C-...C-Cosmic….
???: Cosmic. How interesting of a name.
Cosmic:...
???: I guess you would like to know my name, wouldn’t you? Heh, to be honest, I sometimes wonder if my lord knew my name.
Cosmic:...
???: But, if you must, you may call me Bullette.
(Cosmic just grunts in response)
Bullette: Hehe, feels nice to be acquainted right?
(Vines caress Cosmic’s face as she weakly shakes her head)
Cosmic: Nnn n-no…touchy…
Bullette: Come now, no need to be stubborn.
(Bullette looks at Cosmics)
Bullette: Hmm… Ah I think I know what you need.
(Bullette pulls Cosmic over. She then creates a bright red flower in her hand)
Bullette: For you.
(Bullette pulls the flower above her ear)
Bullette: Perfect, don’t you think?
Cosmic: Nnnn…
Bullette: Hehe, you look so grumpy.
Cosmic: What di…. Y-....
Bullette: Oh curious about what I did to you? Just something to help you relax.
Cosmic: C-Can’t… T-Think…
Bullette: That means it works. You’re so relaxed you can barely think, let alone function.
Cosmic: Y-You…d-demon…
Bullette: That’s not very nice.
Cosmic: What…you do…about it…?
Bullette: To make sure you stay. With me. Speaking of which.
(Bullette pulls out a small seed)
Bullette: I have a special spot for you.
(Bullette tosses a seed to the ground)
Bullette: You’ll like this.
(The seed sprouts and blossoms into a large flower-like structure, resembling a type of cushion)
Cosmic: Hnn…
Bullette: Do you like it? I made it just for you.
Cosmic: W-What… D-does it…?
Bullette: Hehe, just a place for you to relax and have fun.
(The vines take Cosmic and lie her onto the cushion. Vines sprout from the cushion, hovering around Cosmic who lies there)
Cosmic:...
Bullette: Don’t worry, my love. You’ll enjoy this.
(Cosmic lies there looking at the vines. She tries to form a thought of what to do, but her mind struggles to make one. Instead, she tries to roll onto her side, rolling over onto her stomach as she tries to get up)
Cosmic: Hnnn…g-gotta…
Bullette: Oh?
(Cosmic tries to push herself up)
Cosmic: G-Get up…
Bullette: You don’t want to lay on my gift yet? Hehe, well that’s fine. Come here then.
(A vine grabs Cosmic’s ankles)
Cosmic: ! Nnnn n-no…!
(Cosmic is pulled away as she’s brought over to Bullette while she’s upside down)
Bullette: How’s all that yummy blood in there feeling going to your head?
Cosmic: S-Sucks…
Bullette: Hehehe.
(Bullette looks at Cosmic’s outfit)
Bullette: My my, what an eye for style you have mortal. So much flesh.
(Bullette puts a hand on Cosmic’s stomach)
Bullette: Here I thought mortals hated that. But I sure don’t.
(Bullette slides her hand down Cosmic’s stomach)
Cosmic: Gnnn…
(Cosmic winces)
Cosmic: S-S-S-St-Sto-
Bullette: You still seem tense. But I do have another little trick for you.
(Bullette inhales)
Cosmic: O-Oh n-not a-
(Bullette exhales, releasing a more pink-colored cloud of spores into Cosmic’s face as she coughs a bit)
Cosmic: A-Ah come on…!
Bullette: Heheh.
Cosmic: W-W-What n-nooooooooo….
(Cosmic feels less bogged down, but now feels lighter as she looks at her hands. Her vision blurs as she moves her fingers a bit)
Cosmic: T-This…i-it…heh, whoa…
Bullette: Okay there mortal?
Cosmic: M-My hands… E-Everything so…. Whooooooa….
Bullette: Heh, it won’t make you as tired as before, but it should make you a bit more…fun for me.
Cosmic: Woooow…
Bullette: Hehe. Now come here mortal. *Holds out arms*
(The vine rests Cosmic in Bullette’s arms)
Bullette: There we go.
Cosmic: T-This…I don’t…hehehe…
Bullette: Giggly one aren’t you? The sounds you make are sure adorable.
Cosmic: Hehehehe….
Bullette: Heh. I’m almost sad to see you go mortal. But once your gone my lord will return. Oh my lord. I’ll take good care of your host till your return. It draws near I can feel it.
Cosmic: Hehehehe, i-it won’t…l-last, hehehehe…
Bullette: You think so?
Cosmic: I-I- *giggles*
Bullette: Looks like your lost your train of thought. But that’s okay.
(Vines go up to Cosmic)
Bullette: I can still have my fun.
Cosmic: Hehe nooo, no vines…!
Bullette: Yes my vines.
(The vines poke and prod at Cosmic’s face as they poke her cheeks)
Cosmic: Ahhh pfft, pfft, noooo…!
Bullette: Such a soft and squishy body. With a cute face. Cute for a mortal anyway.
Cosmic: W-What d-d- pfft, does t-that m- pfft mean…?
Bullette: It means you’re not going anywhere anytime soon.
Cosmic: O-Oh…
Bullette: Oh indeed. Especially with how squishy you are.
Cosmic: N-Not squishy…tough!
Bullette: Oh you are very squishy. Even the weakest demon has tougher skin than this.
Cosmic: N-Not true….!
Bullette: Oh?
(Vines grab Cosmic’s arms and pull her up. A vine goes up to her stomach)
Bullette: With a single swing, I could slice your belly open and feed your innards to the forest if I wanted. Wouldn’t be my first time.
(Cosmic looks worried as she tries to pull away)
Bullette: Oh don’t worry I won’t. I can’t have you dying.
(The vine just brushes against Cosmic’s stomach)
Bullette: Not with my lord inside.
(Cosmic grunts with worry as Bullette puts her head to Cosmic’s stomach)
Bullette: Hmmm… Yes I can hear his spirit. His grip ever tightening….
(Bullette smiles and looks Cosmic in the eyes)
Bullette: You’re ushering a new age for us. Be honored.
Cosmic: I-I…hehehehe…
Bullette: Heh. Maybe it’s best if you rest for now. I’ll enjoy our time together later.
Cosmic: N-No… Let…. G-Go…
(Bullette doesn’t reply as the vines carry Cosmic away)
Cosmic: No…n-no, I…I don’t wanna…!
Bullette: You don’t have a choice mortal.
(Bullette pulls out another seed and tosses it to the ground)
Bullette: Now time for you to rest.
(Another cushion forms as the vines lie Cosmic onto it)
Cosmic:...
Bullette: Don’t worry. I’ll see you soon. My love.
(The flower Cosmic is in begins to close up)
Cosmic: N-No…!
(The flower closes, leaving Cosmic inside alone)
Cosmic:...*sigh* W-Well…could be worse…
(Cosmic notices the cushion begins to change)
Cosmic:... I-It’s worse…
(The cushion shifts as parts of it open up. Vines emerge and grab Cosmic’s wrists and ankles)
Cosmic: A-Ah hey! What’s the big idea?
(Cosmic’s lifted up as she struggles)
Cosmic: L-Let go! L-Let-
(Cosmic sees more vines emerging, she struggles on what to do)
Cosmic: *Thinking* Gotta get out of this!
(The vines prepare to lunge as Cosmic looks at them, seeming to focus on them)
Cosmic: Crap…!
(The vines go up to her as she closes her eyes, ready for the worst before she opens her eyes)
Cosmic: Eh?
(The vines don’t move, they don’t do anything)
Cosmic:...Uh, you broken?
(The vines still don’t do anything)
Cosmic:.... Helloooooo?
(Nothing still)
Cosmic: If you’re gonna do something then do it, otherwise let me go!
(The vines do nothing, but many retreat back where they came from before Cosmic is put back down on the cushion)
Cosmic:....Eh?
(Cosmic looks around confused)
Cosmic:..... Ooooookay? That was… Weird.
(Cosmic looks around at the interior of the plant)
Cosmic: Did it hear me somehow? Hmm…
(Cosmic feels the cushion)
Cosmic: Definitely not the worst situation to be stuck in…I just hope Nathal’s still alive.
(Scene cuts to Nathal as he throws one of the trees away)
Nathal: STAY DOWN!!
(He blasts through several trees flying through them. He lands on the other side looking back at them)
Nathal: Please tell me that did something to them…!
(Nathal notices several are down but some having twitches)
Nathal: Gah!
(Nathal turns and uses heat vision to destroy the ones still moving. Now being charred, they stop. Nathal sighs with relief)
Nathal: Jeez… I hate fighting enemies that regenerate.
(Nathal looks around)
Nathal: Well, if that’s cleared up, I gotta find Cosmic! Hopefully she is faring better than I was.
(Nathal flies off)
Nathal: Keep it slower then normal Nathal, lest you miss something or run into more tree monsters.
(Nathal goes to find Cosmic as the scene shows her inside the plant pushing and feeling her hands against the inner walls)
Cosmic: Hnnn! Crap, this thing’s closed up tight. Not even I can pry it open.
(Cosmic sits down legs crossed)
Cosmic: How do I get out of this?
(After a moment Cosmic realizes)
Cosmic: Hey… That stuff she sprayed me with must have worn off. Well that’s good.
(Cosmic thinks)
Cosmic: Let’s see…Maybe I could burn my way out of this?
(Cosmic stands up)
Cosmic: Yeah some heat vision should take care of this.
(Cosmic looks at the wall)
Cosmic: Okay here we-
(Suddenly the flower begins to move as it starts to open up)
Cosmic: W-What the-
(Vines then come in and wrap around Cosmic’s arms)
Cosmic: H-Hey let go! Let-
(The vines pull Cosmic up out of the flower)
Cosmic:...go.
(Cosmic is pulled over to Bullette who smiles at her)
Bullette: Hello there.
Cosmic: Gah, what do you want now?
Bullette; To see you of course. You look more energized.
Cosmic: That’s…one way to put it.
Bullette; Heheh, good for you!
(The vines turns Cosmic around)
Bullette: Either way it’s nice to see all of you.
Cosmic: Hey what are you doing?
(Cosmic is pulled over to Bullette. The vines let go of Cosmic, as Bullette catches her, putting her arms around Cosmic’s waist. Cosmic turns her head to look at Bullette who’s smiling at her)
Bullette: Heh I gotcha.
Cosmic: Um…thanks.
Bullette: Anytime you.
Cosmic: Now can you start letting go?
Bullette: Hmmm…. No.
(Cosmic grunts annoyed. She tries to pull Bullette’s arms off her, but finds they have a really tight grip)
Bullette: Hehehe.
Cosmic:...*sigh* Son of a… Damn you’re strong.
Bullette: I know.
Cosmic: Hnn…
Bullette: Keeps mortals like you in line.
(Cosmic tries again to pull that grip off but fails)
Cosmic: God…
Bullette: I do think your struggles are cute to watch.
Cosmic: We’ll see how long that lasts.
Bullette: A while I’d imagine.
Cosmic: Did you just pull me out of that flower to brag about how strong you are?
Bullette: No. I just wanted you.
Cosmic: Great…I’m feeling giddy thinking about it…
Bullette: Oh you should my love.
Cosmic: I ain’t your love!
Bullette: Heheh, I beg to differ.
Cosmic: As do I…
Bullette: You don’t seem to be excited for what you are about to become.
Cosmic: I ain’t becoming nothing.
Bullette: So defiant. But your path and destiny is laid out. And soon… I’ll see my love once more…
Cosmic: You’re obsessed with Archeron or something?
Bullette: I suppose that’s one way of putting the love I feel for him.
Cosmic: You made it sound like he doesn’t know you didn’t you? If so why love a guy like that?
Bullette: He plays hard to get is all. I can win him over, I know I can!
Cosmic: And what makes you think you can?
Bullette: For one, I’m protecting his host. He’ll be thrilled to know I kept you safe.
Cosmic: Oh I’m suuuure he would…
Bullette: He will. I’d say wait and see, but you won’t be able to.
(Cosmic glares at Bullette at that)
Bullette: Now, where were we?
Nathal: *voice* You let my friend go!
(The two look over to see Nathal glaring at them)
Cosmic: *gasp* Nathal!
Bullette: Ooooh another one? You must be who took care of my children.
Nathal: If you mean the living forest that kept attacking me, yeah it was. Now, I’m not gonna say it again, let Cosmic go now!
Bullette: Or what?
Nathal: Lady you don’t wanna know. Now put her down!
Bullette: Hmm… How about you say that to my friends.
(Nathal notices the trees around them start moving)
Nathal: Oh not again…
Cosmic: Nathal!
(Cosmic growls as she struggles to escape Bullette’s grasp)
Cosmic: Let! GO!
(Vines speed over and grab Cosmic and pull her away)
Bullette: You just wait there, I need to take care of your friend!
(Cosmic tries to pull her arms free as Nathal is fighting the trees)
Nathal: Yeah come on you big twigs, I can take you all on!
(Nathal burns through trees with his heat vision)
Nathal: WOOO!!!
(Nathal smashes through a bunch of trees only for them to recover. He’s about to attack again only for several vines to ensnare him)
Nathal: GAH!!!
(Bullette drags Nathal over to her)
Bullette: Gotcha you little mortal.
Cosmic: Nathal!
(Nathal tries to get free only to find the vines are insanely strong)
Nathal: C-Crap, what the hell are these made of!?
Cosmic: Let him go!!
(Bullette forms very sharp thorny edge in her hand)
Bullette: Your flesh will feed my plants.
(Nathal eye’s open up wide Bullette prepares to thrust forward)
Cosmic: I SAID LET HIM GO!!
(Bullette thrusts her arm forward and suddenly Nathal is dropped on the ground)
Bullette: ! What the???
Cosmic: !
Nathal: W-Whoa! Heheh, you dropped me you overgrown bush!
Bullette: I didn’t do that! Grab him!
(The vines try to grab Nathal who speeds out of the way. Cosmic remembers earlier and looks at the vines holding her)
Cosmic:... Let go?
(The vines holding Cosmic soon go and release her)
Cosmic: Whoa…that’s new.
(Cosmic then thinks of something)
Cosmic: Hmm…
(Cosmic looks at a nearby tree. She focuses it. Suddenly it comes to life and pulls its roots out of the ground to stand up)
Cosmic: …. I can command nature.
(Cosmic smiles)
Cosmic: I command nature!
(Bullette notices Cosmic. She shoots out vines to grab her, which Cosmic slices the vines and points at her sending the tree after her. Bullette shoots more vines and starts stabbing the tree)
Bullette: W-What is this?? You obey ME! Attack her!
Nathal: Whoooa, no way! Did she…?
(Bullette rips the tree apart as she creates more tree monsters. They go to attack as Cosmic holds out her hands, making them stop in their track and they start to rip each other apart. Bullette looks shocked. She then looks at Cosmic and in her vision, she takes the form of Archeron)
Bullette:.... My lord…?
(Cosmic charges at Bullette, creating a fire fist)
Cosmic: Say goodnight!!
(Cosmic throws a punch into Bullette’s gut. Bullette looks at Cosmic’s face)
Bullette: M-My… My lord….
(Cosmic glare as Bullette slowly touches her face and she smiles)
Bullette: You’re…You’re going to save us…I know you will…
(Bullette and her flower starts to burn)
Bullette: The demons… Will rule the universe… I… L-Love…. You………..
(Bullette burns away and dies along with her flower. Cosmic and Nathal watch her burn away)
Cosmic:...
Nathal:.... Hey you okay?
(Cosmic holds up her hands)
Cosmic:....
Nathal: Cosmic?
(Cosmic looks at her hands as her head begins to feel light)
Nathal: Whoa you okay?
Cosmic: F-Fine, I…nnngh…
(Cosmic falls back but Nathal catches her)
Nathal: Whoa! Cosmic are-
(Nathal feels her head)
Nathal: ! Holy crap you’re burning up like crazy!
Cosmic: N-NNnnngh…. G-Gah…
Nathal: Not good, we gotta get you back to base! Can you fly?
(Cosmic tries to stands up to fly but she falls back which Nathal catches her)
Nathal: Damn it! Hang on I got you!
(Nathal lifts up Cosmic and flies off quickly leaving the island. He picks up his comms)
Nathal: Guys, Cosmic’s sick! Returning to base now, we need her looked at ASAP!
Danea: *Voice* Roger that! Get here quick!
Nathal: Will do!
(Nathal puts his communicator away as he keeps flying)
Nathal: Hang tight Cosmic, you’ll be okay!
(Cosmic doesn’t reply as she pants in pain…)
