She couldn't believe her eyes. She had tried to hard to prolong the events of each arc in this story, yet her characters grew self aware regardless. The story could finish at any time at his rate, and she decided that being subtle wasn't an option anymore.
As Octopus Man stood before TRIUNE, he started to radiate with an orange aura. "I have been charging up this power for a while now. I think you will be pleasantly surprised by how powerful it is." he said in a smug tone.
TRIUNE suddenly fired a blast of distilled water directly at Octopus Man's face. Due to such close proximity, it should have killed him instantly. The group gasped as the beam engulfed him entirely.
"DID HE JUST DIE?" Floran asked, surprised by this anticlimactic finish.
When TRIUNE ceased breathing its distilled water beam, Octopus Man stood there, completely unharmed. "That would have hurt a few minutes ago, but this power I have been charging up gave me so many upgrades it's crazy." he stated.
Boomerang, who was still in his nightmare form, looked over at Sewerbass and said, "I know this is supposed to be an important moment, but seriously, why are you here?" Sewerbass turned to him and replied, "Why not? I am a vital part of this story."
"No you're not." everyone else replied.
TRIUNE growled loudly, and stomped one of its feet. The cathedral started shifting into another world, but before the shifting could complete, Octopus Man punched the air so hard, the world shattered into glass, and they immediately returned back to the cathedral.
TRIUNE was taken aback, but quickly regained its composure and stomped again. The cathedral turned into a green void.
Nalay looked around and asked, "What is this place?" Lusha also looked around and replied, "This is a place where no powers can exist. I know this because I am so amazingly smart."
Astra pulled out her gun and tried to shoot, but it wouldn't work at all. "My gun won't even shoot. And this isn't even a power." Lusha nodded. "Yup. That's how strong this world is. We are totally screwed." she responded.
Octopus Man, however, simply punched through the world again, causing it to shatter like glass.
"WHAT THE?" Floran shouted in disbelief. "Didn't you just say no powers existed in this world?" Floran asked Lusha. "Yeah. Guess this power Octopus Man has been charging really is just built different." Lusha responded.
"Yeah duh. Everyone seems to underestimate Octopus Man." Kookakoo stated. "I WONDER WHY THAT IS!" Floran yelled angrily.
"When the world shifted just a few seconds ago, it reminded me of those other worlds we went to." Mr. Fluffypants stated, looking over at Rit. "As much as I hate to admit it, you are right. There is definitely something controlling this story." she replied.
Floran's eyes widened with excitement, and she ran towards them, pushing Cutecumber out of the way.
"Did you just say what I think you said." Floran asked. Rit looked upset and turned away, crossing her arms. Floran looked confused and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"She's mad at you for breaking her sword." Mr. Fluffypants explained. "Of course. The one person who believes me hates me. I never win." Floran said with an eye roll.
Suddenly, Octopus Man spoke up, saying, "EVERYONE! I NEED YOUR HELP!"
The group stared at him intently. "What do you need?" Brazilian Bug Boy asked. "Emotional support!" Octopus Man replied. There was a silence as the group simply stared at Octopus Man with unreadable expressions.
"Fine I'll just give in." Floran said, reaching her arms out. "TAKE MY EMOTIONAL SUPPORT!" she shouted. Octopus Man's aura started to glow slightly brighter.
Everyone started to look at each other with confused expressions. "What the hell. It's worth a shot." Brazilian Bug Boy stated, reaching his arms out to offer his emotional support as well.
Cutecumber giggled to herself and did the same, as did Goose Man.
"Woof Woof!" Catalina barked, standing on two legs and reaching out her arms.
Dinkleflop let out a scoff and did the same thing.
"I can finally be useful!" Malum said, reaching her arms out. Realizing this, Emberlyn also immediately reached her arms out to offer support as well.
"Look's like everyone is finally getting into the spirit." Lusha said, reaching out her arms. Nalay nodded and replied, "Yup." before also reaching out her arms.
"I can't reach my arms out, so I'll just lower my head a bit. But believe me, I am offering my full support." Boomerang stated. Sewerbass reached out its tiny arms to offer support too.
"I LOVE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT!" Wushadabu exclaimed, reaching out her arms. Strawbetty did the same.
"This is ridiculous, right Acty?" Florbus asked. "Yeah, but I think we should go along with it." Acty replied. "What? Why?" Florbus asked. "Because, he's the main character after all." Acty responded. He then reached out his arms. Kiaqua did the same, as did Sir Seepage III and U-VOL. Gastronimus flapped its wings instead.
Florbus looked at all of them before sighing. "Alright fine." he said, also reaching out his arms.
The Great 4 all reached out their arms, as did Astra and Kat.
Chess Hat Pennsylvanian Cape Man thought back to the Tower of Braccas, and seeing how far Octopus Man has gotten, he put all of his faith into him. He then reached out his arms.
Mr. Fluffypants also reached out his arms and looked at Rit. "Come on! It's our only chance at living!" he exclaimed. Rit thought to herself for a moment. "All of you are idiots. I won't trust you for a second." she muttered.
"COME ON! PLEASE!" Mr. Fluffypants cried. Rit thought about how Octopus Man casually destroyed the rifts that just happened, so she conceded. "Alright. I'll give him emotional support or whatever." she said before reluctantly reaching out her arms.
"I am a huge fan of reaching my arms out!" Kate Myanmar stated, reaching her arms out.
The Number 7 had fully powered everyone up, which also powered up their emotional support as well.
The entire group put all of their support into Octopus Man at this moment, and they all yelled at once, "WE SUPPORT YOU!"
Octopus Man was now glowing with the light of a million suns. The only reason the group could withstand such light was because of 7, giving them enough power to do so.
TRIUNE stared at the fully powered up Octopus Man, and took a step back. It let out another angry growl, attempting to shift the world once more, but this time, it's ability was cancelled out before it could even use it. That's how great Octopus Man's power had become.
With a chuckle Octopus Man looked directly into TRIUNE's eyes and said, "My power is Turkmenistan, however, I have upgraded it to Tajikistan! Even so, with all this new power and all the emotional support from everyone else, I can still tell you might be more powerful than me, so I only have a 50% chance to beat you."
Kookakoo then jumped on to the platform Octopus Man was standing on and said, "Well yeah. If you only have one person that may be the case." Kookakoo then also started glowing with the same aura Octopus Man was glowing with.
Octopus Man looked over at her and smiled. He reached his own arm at towards TRIUNE, and had his fingers in the shape of a finger gun. Kookakoo did the exact same thing. "Then I guess my Tajikistan will be multiplied." Octopus Man stated.
TRIUNE felt a surge of fear course through its body.
Octopus Man and Kookakoo crackled with power at this moment, the cathedral lit up with their combined auras, and they both started shouted simultaneously, "50 + 50 = 100!"
From their fingers erupted the full unrestricted power of Tajikistan, which engulfed the entire cathedral with a white light. TRIUNE let out a loud scream of pain as it disintegrated within the light.
