[PUNCH CLOCK ANIMAL] MAYBEQUEST: PART 1

[skinstealer]

Okay, you’ve got this. You’ve got numbers, you’ve got weapons, you’re just against an enemy that could kill you all way, way faster if she wasn’t so tired. Easy peasy- but it’ll be way easier for the others to get hits in if you can distract her, and there’s not much else you can do right now with that wounded arm and no weapons of your own.
 

MAY: Hey, you’re missing a couple organs there! Where’d your stomach go, huh?!

 
No response, the monstrous karacel completely focused on watching your party tensed up around her.
 

MAY: Even with all those eyes, you can’t see everybody coming at you at once! 

 
Nothing.

You’re not great at this- but something comes to mind.


 

MAY: What would Harvey think of the fact that you’re trying to kill kids?!

 
Chelsea jolts in surprise, and Chance takes the opportunity to rush forward and shock her side, the tusks flashing in for sure this time as the ruffneck narrowly avoids her retaliating swing. Something’s definitely up, but you can’t think about that now. 
 


 
Dwayne makes his move, going for her legs. He slams them hard to stagger her-
 

 
 -and Nelson actually takes the initiative to go for her arms, holding them and putting his weight down on them. Fuck waiting around at this point, actually- you’re not going to miss this opportunity yourself.

 
With Chelsea restrained, you dash in and try to wrestle the scythe away, getting the best grip you can on it with your thumbless paws. You pull as hard as you can, but still can’t quite pry it away from her. You keep at it, and make full eye contact with her, unable to stop yourself from baring your teeth from under your mask- her expression matches yours, and you know more than ever that she is fighting just as hard as you are. 

You only have a few seconds to act before she throws both of you off.
