20 - The Road

Floran scratched her head. "Wait a minute," she exclaimed, "Octopus Man killed King La, but we were supposed to interrogate him about the Triune, weren't we?"

Cutecumber sighed, "Well, that's just great. What do we do now?"

Kookakoo pointed at the spot where King La's body was. "King La's body is no longer here." she said. The group's eyes widened as they realized the king had disappeared. Just then, there was a sudden burst of fire and a dark figure started walking out of it. The group held their breath in fear.

The figure stepped out of the fire revealing itself to be a salmon. The salmon began to speak. "I am Uncle Rame. I am King La's true form who is 43 dimensional."

Uncle Rame swam through the air. "King La was merely a puppet. I am a being that transcends your understanding." Cutecumber, still recovering from the encounter with King La, looked at Uncle Rame with skepticism. "So, you're a 43 dimensional fish?"

"Indeed." Uncle Rame responded. Floran stepped forward. "Why reveal yourself now? What is your purpose, Uncle Rame?" she asked.

The salmon circled around them. "You've defeated my avatar, you may be worthy to defeat the Triune. However, you must first pass a trial."

Octopus Man nodded. "Sure thing fish man. What's the trial?"

Just then the world around them morphed. Octopus Man, Kookakoo, and Floran found themselves on an endless road. "This is the 43rd dimension. Each universe has an infinite amount of higher dimensions, but this one is mine." Uncle Rame announced. "If you are able to escape, then I will tell you where the Triune is." he concluded.

"Wait, why aren't Cutecumber and Brazilian Bug Boy here?" Floran asked. The salmon laughed and responded, "They haven't proven themselves capable. You three have."

Kookakoo jumped with happiness. "YES I KNEW I WAS STRONG!" she shouted.

Uncle Rame started to disappear. "I will return to Landland and wait for you to finish. If you cannot complete the trial in 2 hours, you will have failed." After finishing that sentence, Uncle Rame had disappeared back to Landland.

The endless road stretched out endlessly. Back on Earth, Brazilian Bug Boy sat in the corner of the room. "I guess we aren't strong enough." he said. Cutecumber nodded and replied, "Yeah, I guess so."

Cutecumber sat on the empty throne and started laughing. "You do know, Landland doesn't have a king anymore." she stated with a smirk. Brazilian Bug Boy looked up with a confused expression. "And?" he asked.

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

"I can prove I'm powerful and rule this land for myself." she said with a grin. Uncle Rame looked at her and didn't say a word.

On the endless road, Octopus Man yawned. "Hey Floran, just take us to the 16th dimension so we can escape." he said bluntly. Floran rolled her eyes and responded, "The 16th dimension is a lower dimension, so it won't work."

Octopus Man sighed. "Whatever, let's just walk until we find something." Floran and Kookakoo nodded.

As they continued walking down the endless road, Octopus Man and Kookakoo started competing about who could jump the highest. "Watch this!" Kookakoo said, and jumped up, disappearing into the sky. A few seconds later she returned to the ground. "I just jumped to another universe." she said confidently.

Octopus Man smirked and said, "Ha! That's nothing. Watch this!" Octopus Man leaped into the air and reached just an inch higher than Kookakoo. When he returned to the ground he stuck out his tongue to tease her.

Kookakoo stomped her foot in frustration. "That's not fair! I demand a rematch!" Octopus Man smiled and said, "Nah sorry, you'll never beat me. Biscuits give me too much strength."

"No way! I'll win this time." Kookakoo argued. As they continued bickering, Floran couldn't contain her annoyance. "Enough with your stupid games! We're here to escape the 43rd dimensional road, not complain about jumping!" Floran scolded.

Octopus Man and Kookakoo pouted. Kookakoo was then suddenly caught off guard and pointed into the distance. "Look guys, a big buff man fighting a dinosaur!" she shouted. Octopus Man and Floran looked over to see just what Kookakoo described.

Floran was confused and scratched her head before saying, "Ok whatever, maybe they are the key to escape or something." As they walked over there Kookakoo touched the man to get his attention. "Hello, who are you and why are you fighting this dinosaur?" she asked.

The man looked over at the trio. "Oh, I am Big Buff Man, and this dinosaur is trying to capture all the dots!"

The dinosaur roared in anger before speaking in perfect English. "The dots belong to me, not this man!"

Floran was even more confused now. "What dots?" she asked. Octopus Man, Kookakoo, Big Buff Man and the dinosaur all gasped at once. "YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE DOTS?" Octopus Man yelled.

Kookakoo then grabbed Floran by her neck and started shaking her violently. "Please tell me you're joking!" she shouted. Floran pushed Kookakoo away.

"No I'm not joking. What are dots?" Floran asked once again.

"Dots are the foundation of all life created by God, the Supreme Architect. They are in everything, and in this dimension they are scattered around." the dinosaur explained.

"Yeah, and all of them belong to me!" Big Buff Man shouted, staring at the dinosaur angrily.

Floran nodded. "So if they are scattered around, that means this world is unstable right?" she asked. The dinosaur responded nervously, "Uh, well, yeah I guess so."

Floran had a smirk and whispered to Octopus Man and Kookakoo. "You guys need to get the dots. It will shatter the world if all of them are absorbed." Kookakoo smiled and shouted, "YEAH! WE WILL COLLECT ALL THE DOTS AND DESTROY THIS WORLD!"

Floran slapped her on the head. "Shut up you idiot. Big Buff Man and the dinosaur will here you."

"We heard already." they said at the same time with angry faces. Floran looked at them with a blank face before turning to Octopus Man and Kookakoo slowly. "RUN AND GET THE DOTS!" she shouted.

They nodded and quickly ran down the road to get the dots. "HEY! GET BACK HERE!" Big Buff Man and the dinosaur shouted, before chasing after them.
