"Hey guys, I'm alive again." Octopus Man said, waving his hand. Kookakoo turned to him and said, "I knew you would survive! You are the best main character any story has ever had."
Floran scoffed at Kookakoo's claim.
"Well anyway, how are we supposed to get to the Triune now?" Boomerang asked, looking up to the sky. "We can't remember. We are essentially fake to it now." Lusha replied.
Brazilian Bug Boy also looked to the sky and thought to himself for a moment before saying, "Are they going to attack us somehow?"
"Unlikely. I think they just got fed up with us and just disappeared." Lusha explained. "That seems out of character for the Triune." Cutecumber stated.
Goose Man stepped forward and said, "We shouldn't take any chances. Even if they truly are just escaping, they will probably return one day, and use the opportunity to destroy everything."
"And we have no way to get home." Emberlyn said, tearing up, thinking there was no way to return home.
"Guys listen to me. We can win. I truly believe The Number 7 can help us." Octopus Man said. "Now where is 7?" he asked.
"Kookakoo threw 7 at TRIUNE, and it fell down into the abyss." Floran said. Kookakoo laughed nervously. "Heh... sorry about that." she responded, scratching the back of her head.
"Don't worry Kookakoo, that might have made it easier." Octopus Man stated. "Really?" Kookakoo asked.
"Yes! Just watch!" Octopus Man replied. He then stomped on the platform beneath them, and it shattered.
The group screamed as they fell down into the abyss. "WE'RE GOING TO DIE!" Emberlyn screamed
Floran tried to spread her wings, but Octopus Man pointed to her and shouted, "Don't fly! Just trust me!"
Mr. Fluffypants watched as the group fell into the abyss. "EVERYONE ELSE IS DEAD!" he cried. Rit also looked down and said, "Perfect. Now we are stuck here forever with no escape."
Nalay laughed and said, "I think it's okay. I will trust anything Octopus Man does."
"Huh? The idiot with the octopus plush on his head?" Rit asked. Nalay giggled and replied, "Yeah. He may be dumb, and stupid, and crazy, and idiotic, and ridiculous, and a lunatic, but... wait what was I saying again?"
"WHY ARE WE FALLING TO OUR DEATHS?" Brazilian Bug Boy cried. "We aren't. Just look!" Octopus Man responded, pointing downwards into the abyss.
"I DON'T TRUST YOU ANYMORE!" Brazilian Bug Boy shouted. "Come on. Sometimes you just have to risk it. Risk it for the biscuit as I like to say." Octopus Man replied.
As they looked down, they saw a pulsating red light. "What is that?" Lusha asked casually, not afraid in the slightest.
"It's 7's aura. It fused with the abyss." Octopus Man explained. "YAY! I DID THAT! I MADE THAT HAPPEN! ARE YOU PROUD OF ME?" Kookakoo asked with a huge smile on her face.
"Yes. Everyone, give Kookakoo a round of applause." Octopus Man said. The rest of the group did not give Kookakoo a round of applause. They were too busy falling or screaming.
Kookakoo crossed her arms and said, "They never show me any respect."
Malum woke up once again, and immediately saw how they were falling. Unsurprisingly, she passed out from the fear.
Octopus Man pointed to Catalina and yelled, "CATALINA! TRANSFORM INTO A PORTAL!" Catalina nodded and flew below them, transforming into a wormhole-like portal.
"WHAT? WHY?" Cutecumber screamed. "This portal will allow us to directly fuse with 7. This hole is endless. So normally we would never reach the bottom, but this portal will help us skip the distance." Octopus Man explained.
The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
With that, the group fell into the portal. The entire world started to pulsate red. Rit looked up in fear and shouted, "WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!"
Mr. Fluffypants started rocking back-and-forth with his thumb in his mouth.
Nalay smirked and said, "I knew they would do it."
From the abyss, 7 starting floating upwards. It was sparkling and shiny. Mr. Fluffypants took his thumb out of his mouth, and his eyes widened in awe. "7! You're glowing!" he exclaimed.
The entire world stopped pulsating, and simply turned red. "7 IS THIS STRONG?" Rit yelled, not believing her eyes.
The Number 7 grew a massive arm and picked up the three of them. "HOLY CRAP!" Rit shouted. "It's okay Rit. 7 won't hurt us." Mr. Fluffypants said in a reassuring tone. "BULLCRAP!" Rit shouted in response.
7 then ascended, creating a superposition of its own with the combined power of itself, and Octopus Man.
It arrived at a cathedral. The entire group was in the very top row of the seats, and Octopus Man stood up and said, "See. We did it!" His voice echoed off the walls of the cathedral.
Rit, Nalay, and Mr. Fluffypants also stood up. "I told you 7 wouldn't hurt us." Mr. Fluffypants said. Rit sighed and replied, "Fine. I admit I was wrong. Are you happy yet?"
The rest of the group stood up and Boomerang said, "Wow. I can fit my entire body in here. This cathedral is massive."
"Look down there!" Brazilian Bug Boy shouted, pointing down to the stage. On the stage was the massive beast known as TRIUNE. Due to there being so many seating rows, and the fact that they were at the top one, they saw TRIUNE as being small despite its massive stature.
"Wow, we are so high up." Cutecumber said, looking down. TRIUNE was standing still on the stage, not moving or making a sound.
Malum began waking up one more time. Goose Man turned to her and said, "Don't freak out this time. There is a massive beast down there, but don't worry, it doesn't seem like it can reach us from up here.
Malum was disoriented and stood up on shaky legs. "What is this place?" she asked. She then walked up to the raling and looked down. She immediately covered her mouth with her hand and puked in her mouth. "Hey! I told you not to freak out!" Goose Man said.
"It's not that. I'm just scared of heights." Malum explained. With that, she collapsed to the ground unconscious again.
"I hate this stupid demon." Goose Man mumbled to himself, looking down at Malum's unconscious body.
"So, what now? I don't want to risk attacking it. It will notice us and probably kill us for good." Floran stated.
Octopus Man looked over at 7 and said, "7 helped us get here. I'm sure it can help us defeat the Triune as well."
7 stood there, not moving an inch. Rit slammed her fist on the top of 7 and said, "DO SOMETHING YOU STUPID NUMBER!" she yelled. "NO RIT! STOP HURTING 7!" Mr. Fluffypants cried. She turned to face him and shouted, "MAKE HIM HELP US OR I'LL RIP YOUR APPENDIX OUT!"
Mr. Fluffypants gulped in fear and walked up to 7. He looked at it and sighed before saying "Please help us 7. I'm begging you." 7 did not reply like usual.
"7 please. I'm begging you." Mr. Fluffypants pleaded. The group watched in anticipation to see what would happen.
There was a deafening silence. Everyone held their breath to see what 7 would do.
After a few agonizing seconds of waiting, Mr. Fluffypants looked down sadly. But when all hope was thought to be lost, 7 radiated with power once again.
Mr. Fluffypants felt a surge of excitement, as did the entire group. Bolts of what seemed to be some sort of electricity started erupting from 7's body. The group ducked their heads upon seeing the bolts.
The bolts crackled like thunder, and they created massive black holes on the surfaces it touched.
For once, Floran could feel excitement. "This is it. This is the moment I've been waiting for." she said to herself.
The loud noises were heard by TRIUNE. It raised its massive beast-like head to see the group standing on the highest level of the cathedral. It let out one of its usual deafening roars.
In the hideout of the Great 4, Ocean was lazing on the couch watching TV. Shoobeeshwas was riding an exercise bike, and Pepperoni was practicing his swing with a cardboard sword.
Shishi, the lead scientist of the nation, ran in. She adjusted her glasses and pulled out a tablet. "We are having readings showing that portals are appearing in our world." she stated somewhat nervously.
The Great 4 turned their heads to see her. "What? Another demon invasion?" Shoobeeshwas asked, hopping off of his exercise bike.
"No, it doesn't look like it. This is like something we've never seen before." Shishi explained.
Ofor walked in and yelled, "I AM DISGUSTED TO BE PART OF THIS TEAM WITH YOU 3! YOU DO NOTHING BUT LAZE AROUND ALL DAY!"
"Ofor, I know you love scolding us, but did you not here about what Shishi is talking about?" Pepperoni asked. "What are you talking about?" Ofor asked with a skeptical look in her eyes.
"Explain it to her Shishi." Pepperoni said. Shishi nodded and said, "Our world is being infiltrated by portals. We don't know where they are coming from.
Ofor put her hands in her pockets. "Probably nothing I can't handle." she remarked.
"Well, you should see them. There are some right outside." Shishi stated. The group ran outside of their secret hideout and saw black holes in the ground everywhere.
"I don't think anyone has fell into one surprisingly. They seem to be searching for something in particular. Maybe people that the holes are familiar with." Shishi theorized.
Just then, a hole appeared below the Great 4, and they disappeared in an instant. Shishi stumbled backwards. "W...where did you go?" she asked in a horrified tone.
