[FatherTiempo he/him]

"Excuse me sir." FT said, popping through layers of Narration. "Would you like to make a contribution to the: Give Astral A Soul Foundation? It's for a good cause." He said, shaking the change jar in front of the fisherman.

[+Doomstick he/him]

What’s the plan?

[FatherTiempo he/him]

"Get Astral a soul! We'll fill in the details later. Right now, we'll get an enormous amount of cash to fund our research."

[+Doomstick he/him]

What about the other thing?

[FatherTiempo he/him]

"Hmm? Oh that? Xino's fine. I gave him a chicken a couple dozen pages back. "

[+Doomstick he/him]

Sophie?

[FatherTiempo he/him]

"She's doing great! I think my therapy is finally paying off. "

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

Sophie had fallen asleep. Her head was resting against the side of her pale blue forcefield and one arm cradled Aqua close to her leg. 

[Snake Eyes Productions_YT he/him]

Suddenly, she awoke...

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Wake up, declared Aqua. The clock is ticking.

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

Sophie rubbed her eyes groggily. "Okay," she said with a yawn as she put down the forcefield and stood. 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Wait, no! cried out Aqua.

The withergeist that had been waiting outside let out a hiss of pleasure and drifted towards Sophie. 

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

With a girly squeal, Sophie panicked, putting up a forcefield. She didn't have enough time to make one that encased her, so she created more of a shield, one that floated above her forearm. It was about the length of her body and she put the arm across her chest, warding off the withergeist with it. 

[Brightness Warrior she/her]

From the great blue sky came the whistle of a falling bombshell. The sight of a massive mushroom cloud rising was a moment in coming, but all would know of it.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Those dang potaters resigned themselves to their inevitable destruction. Again.

Use the spear! called Aqua as she floated upwards.

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

Spear? Sophie thought, panicked. Oh. Right. She reached her unshielded hand out, rifling through the little piece of the Void she had storied her weapon in. It took only a second for her to pull the long, crystalline spear from the reality pocket. She froze, looking at it for a second. She... she couldn't do this! Spears were Thought's thing! She blushed as she realized how ridiculous she must look. Like some sort of animated gladiator girl. But, just like a drawn animation, she couldn't move of her own will. She tried to take a step back and ended up tripping over herself, almost knocking into Aqua. She quickly and instinctively put a forcefield over her body, dismissing the bulky spear to the reality pocket again.

Here's Astral for you guys. Poor thing's had a hard time. She doesn't realize how long she can go without food... Now that she's had a real feast, she just wants more. 

Geez...

The dang potaters weren’t that bright.

Stone splashed conditioner on the withergeist, killing it

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

TVG tapped her foot. If you keep interfering with her story, she'll never learn.

[+Doomstick he/him]

learn what?

There was a burst of confetti and a triumphant tune. Congratulations! said Stone's video game. Level 5 completed.

What are you doing!? screamed Aqua. Kill it!

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

How to find her inner hero, like she wants to.

Ugh, ninjaed...

Sophie's stomach twisted at the angry sound of Aqua's voice. "I can't!" she cried, tears coming to her eyes.

Did you just Narrate my Narrator?
 

It is already dead

can she only become a hero by killing withergeists?

TVG smirked. He godmodded you, yes, and if you want to dispute the rules of your own game, then that's fine by me. Godmodding is rude, but it's allowed here.

As for Sophie, she can only become a hero by facing her fears and right now, what she fears is wrapped up in that little creature of darkness right there.
