“Alrighty! Time to deal with us!” yelled Kat.
She then led the other members of the Actors of Bremen onto the stage and they started introducing themselves. Seriously, spare me these useless dialogues but I have to write it since it’s relevant to the plot.
“I already told you before, my name’s Kat. And I just know that I’m the best villain in the world! I will absolutely destroy all of you and I’ll turn Smilestown upside down! Oops! Kinda rhymed! Anyways here’s my power. Claws of the Witch. I can grow long sharp nails to scratch you. And I 100% will!”
“I, also, already told you before, my name’s Canni. I’m the other best villain in the world. I will destroy Smilestown with Kat and I’ll make sure you’ll never become a famous hero! Anyways here’s my power. Dwarf with a Knife. I can summon any sharp weapons, and depending on its size, I’ll shrink 30% of its length.”
“I’m Ru. Y’all know who I am from the news. But seriously? They call me unfair when this power-formed social hierarchy shapes the entirety of Smilestown. The irony.”
SMILES DAILY: MAGICIAN EXPOSED FOR USING POWERS INSTEAD OF HUMANLY ACHIEVABLE ILLUSIONS
Today, the famous magician, Ru Sterr, was exposed of using a power instead of actual illusions. This is very unfair to others who have practiced a lot to become real magicians. Her power, Call from the Rooftop, allows her to teleport objects to a higher place…
“Don. Club Kicker. Kick you 5 times, I get a baseball bat. Kick you 10 times, golf club.”
“You’re so lame. Introducing yourselves like NPCs. I don’t need your names to fight,” judged Ryla.
“We know, dear. But after all, who’s the greatest villain in the world hm? God forbid a wondrous villain be known!” Kat dramatized.
“Boss needs his entertainment,” Canni explained seriously.
“Elaborate.”
“So, our dearest Miss Tcharri, whose power, Misty Mushrooms, allows her to produce mushrooms that allow people to obtain information she wants them to have within 1 second. So she’s able to let the boss see our show. In other words, she’s recording without even being here. That’s why the Original Humanity is the bes-,” Canni elaborated.
Like a kitkat, the sentenced was snapped in half by someone’s hands, specifically Runice’s, fingers stretching towards her ankles and yanking them off the stage. She stumbled backwards and fell on her back (I mean, what else could she have fallen on?) then groaned, “Ughh… at least let me finish my NPC dialogues first.”
Place: Laughter Musical Theatre (Stage Y)
Goal: Defeat Canni and Kat
Option: Karde and Karu target Canni since they’re long-ranged and Canni has knives. Runice targets Kat because they’re probably strong enough.
Success rate: 70%
“Mute girl! Karu! Go attack Canni. Runice! Attack Kat,” barked Ryla, then charged towards Kat to fight like a bull seeing a red cloth.
As she threw her fists randomly, she continued to shout orders at the others.
“Karu, throw your King Bombs. Mute girl, just keep throwing cards. Runice, uhh, just keep doing whatever you’re doing with me right now.”
“Not that easy!” Canni summoned a giant axe and shrunk down to 3 quarters of her size to avoid Karde’s cards, then quickly returned the axe back to her power and rolled away when the King Bomb detonated.
Kat sprinted over to Canni and used her claws to shred all the cards in the air before they grazed Canni’s skin. Canni went to Kat’s earlier place and shrunk down a little, then swung a sword at Runice’s head, which turned out to be the translucent clone.
“My sub-power. I can swap places with my clone.”
But in the blink of an eye, the sword was already swiping down at Ryla’s legs. They flew back, pushed by the translucency that mimicked the other girl’s actions for she was too far away. Falling back. Like the enemy earlier, but out of care and not hatred. The cards continued on the other side, expectedly moving to Canni. After all, the leader didn’t give new orders yet. She sliced them with the sword, then summoned a guillotin, and disappeared. Kat hurried over and pushed Ryla from behind, who hasn’t yet recovered her senses from the fall. The locks clicked and her wrists and head were stuck in place. As the déclic was pushed and the blade was about to drop, an explosion came and blew up the guillotine.
“Ugh! Damn you and your stupid bombs! Cough cough.”
Ryla was unharmed, as the King Bombs knew who their wielders wanted to attack.
Canni returned, growing as fast as James’ Giant Peach. Within a millisecond, she summoned a claymore and flung it at Karde. Karu jumped in front of her and blocked the claymore with a cross-arm guard stance with a white horse standing proudly nearby. She uncrossed her arms and made the claymore rebound to Canni’s shoulder. Canni did a backflip before it could hit her, and the claymore perished into thin air.

“Hey. Don’t you think we should take those two?”
“Them? Why?”
“They’re adults. Probably more experienced and more emotionally stable and mature.”
“Yeah, but they’re men. You know I hate men.”
“They’re asleep. They can’t say anything rude.”

Before Don joined the Original Humanity, she was a karate teacher. She taught people of different backgrounds, races and ages.
“Miss Kie, is this how I punch?”
“Yup. That’s right! Good job!”
“Hya!”
One day, a man she taught wanted to spar with her.
“Hey, Don. Do you think I can take you in a fight?”
“If you practice hard enough, then of course you can.”
“Yeah whatever. Let’s spar.”
“Alright then. Let me get the equipment first. It’s necessary for protection.”
“Don’t you use something else for protection?”
“Oh wow. So funny. Haha.”
“C’mon. I was just being friendly.”
“Didn’t sound friendly to me. Just spar. I grabbed everything already.”
“Why do we even need all this equipment?”
“It’s for safety. Can’t let anyone get hurt.”
“Yeah. Cuz you’re a female and you’re weak. Men don’t need any of those. I’m strong enough and wounds are nothing to me. Unlike you females.”
“Excuse me?! Just because I’m a woman doesn’t mean I’m weak!”
“Don’t you have a son to feed or something? Or do you not have enough money to take care of one? Check out this place. Pays you a lot.” *gives her a business card looking object*
“Ew! What the hell is wrong with you?!”
After that, she put on her equipment and started sparring with the man.
3 months later…
“Ugh! Damn that guy! It’s completely his fault for all this! Now I have to go to court without a lawyer! He knows I can’t even buy a table without borrowing money from Smilesbank!”
3 weeks later…
“Defendant Don Kie, is it true that you assaulted Mr Misogin Nyst?”
“No! That is completely untrue! We were sparring in karate class!”
“Plaintiff Misogin Nyst, can you provide any proof of her assault?”
“My client says that she bruised his ribs and legs. I have photos of the wounds from that day.”
“Th- that’s not true! You can’t prove that I caused them!”
“In fact, my client does have proof. We requested footage from the cameras in the training room and we saw you fighting him while you had full safety gear on but he had nothing but a thin shirt and a pair of sweatpants on.”
“He told me that he didn’t need any! He even insulted me because I’m a woman!”
“Defendant Don Kie, do you have any evidence of him saying such things?”
“I- I… he’s a misogynist! He hates me for being a woman! He even sexually assaulted me by saying weird things!”
“Silence! Where is your proof?”
Don was sentenced to 3 years for assault occasioning actual bodily harm, 2 years for slander and 7 years for lying in court.
One year later, in the prison cell…
“Prisoner no. 0327! You have a visitor.”
“Ugh. I don’t even have much friends. Who could it be?”
In the visiting room…
“Huh? A teenage boy? He better not be a misogynist.”
“Greetings, Miss Don Kie.”
“How do you know who I am? I don’t think I taught you before. Who are you?”
“Those don’t matter much. You may call me ‘Truth Believer’ or ‘Godly V’.”
“What do you want?”
“Oh. Straight to the point. Good. I’ll bail you out if you join my squad.”
“Ugh. Those damn kid mafioso things. No.”
“I’m not mafia. I just know of your power and your tragedy.”
“Why do you want me to get out?”
“Didn’t I just mention? Your power. 11 years of ‘freedom’ in exchange for your power.”
“I need to know what the squad is.”
“Just a drama group. I have 3 members so far. And the best part? They’re all very respectful ladies. You in?”
“What’s my power for then?”
“Special effects. And for props.”
“I’m in.”

“Kat! Help! The bombs are burning my arms!”
“I can’t! I can slice the cards but I have to hide from that Runice girl!”
“Just shrink and get over here!”
“I can’t! The leader finds me too easily!”
For a split second, all the attacks stopped, Karde threw cards near the heroes’ faces to get their attention, then threw a card towards the exit, where Tradif and Qrent were getting dragged out by Don and Ru.
“Go after them!” Ryla commanded and leaped up the stairs towards the exit at the speed of light.
As soon as they reached the door, a black van sped away, leaving nothing but a vroom sound and a trail of black gas. (Yes I am saying this here. My sincere apologies if it bothers you. However, oil cars are emitting a lot of greenhouse gases that are harmful to the environment and cause global warming. Not only do the black gases look horrible but also smell irritating. On top of that, the oil prices are going higher and higher. Electric vehicles not only cost less on fuel, recharging, but are also more eco-friendly as they produce less pollutants. So, please, I’m begging you, for a safer, better and brighter future for you, the next generations, the animals and plants of the Earth, please consider using public transport, walking, riding a bicycle, or boarding electric cars. Thank you for reading this.)
The heroes realized they were too late to save Tradif and Qrent, so they went back in the theatre, just to find Canni and Kat… never mind they didn’t even find them.
“Well, I guess you can’t find who you’re looking for now. But you can watch our part of the show,” said Nere.
“Aren’t you here to fight? And you’re cosplaying me with the wrong colors,” Ryla pointed out.
“No. I’m not. It’s actually my own outfit that happened to look similar to yours. But isn’t it pretty? Anyways, no. We don’t wanna fight,” replied Nere.
“Yeah. We’re actually pretty friendly. We’re only working for the Original Humanity because they pay to host our shows. We’re just girls who like to dance,” added Hani.
