"You don't scare me, Duckle. I'm ready to fight against you", said Anna, trying to hide her own fear, while Duckle was smiling proudly, maliciously and was excited to show his true powers. He hoped this would be a worthy fight.
"So be it. We will fight. If you win, I'll give you back your multiship and let you leave and never bother you again. If I win, Kxem and all the rest of you will take me to S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island with the multiship, and maybe even help me with my mission, if help is needed. Deal?", said Duckle, smiling confidently.
"Urghhh... okay. Not that I have other options", said Anna, rolling her eyes but also feeling anxious about the outcomes. Duckle has already proved to be much more powerful than she initially thought.
"Here I come, then. Get ready to fight. DUCK CANNON", shouted Duckle, and the duck that previously appared in front of him opened its mouth, and a powerful, fast, extremely destructive ray of light came out from. Anna was shocked to see such an incredible amount of power, and she was starting to feel hopeless against Duckle. She now needs to act quickly, or she will be destroyed by the Duck Cannon. This will be a very brutal fight.
"INFINITY SHIELD!", shouted Anna, creating a powerful ethereal shield in front of her, to protect herself and her allies. She was bitterly caught by surprise as soon as she experienced how powerful the Duck Cannon truly was, shattering her Infinity Shield in pieces as if it were a very fragile glass.
Anna, hÒllÓween and Â̜ were severely hurt by the explosion caused by the Duck Cannon destroying Anna's Infinity Shield. The three travellers were bleeding on the ground, wondering whether they could truly win the fight, as Duckle seemed to be immensely more powerful than all the three combined.
"This is... unfair...", mumbled Â̜, with a weak and feeble voice as she was slowly losing all of her energies. Yet, somehow, she had the force to slowly get up from the ground, despite her body being severely damaged by Duckle's attack.
"What are you doing... Â̜... we have lost... there's no way we can defeat Duckle...", mumbled Anna, weak.
"Indeed...", said Â̜, slowly walking towards Duckle.
"Don't do anything stupid, Â̜", mumbled hÒllÓween, accepting defeat.
As Â̜ slowly walked closer to Duckle, she had a strange feeling in her infinitely old soul, it was a very intense feeling and she didn't understand what it was, but it felt good. Duckle was looking at her, confused, he didn't know what Â̜'s intensions were, so he was keeping his guard somewhat high.
"You have a good soul, Duckle. You want to save the people dear to you. I cannot fight against you", said Â̜, blushing and with wet eyes, almost crying. Duckle lightly blushed as well, hearing what Â̜ had told him.
"The people of Serjin have been tormented by the shadow creatures for a long time now. To solve this situation, I need the Ờ̴̵̶̷̸̡̢̧̨̖̗̘̙̜̝̞̟̠̣̤̥̦̩̪̫̬̭̮̯̰̱̲̳̹̺̻̼͇͈͉͍͎̂̃̄̅̆̇̈̉̊̋̌̍̎̏̐̑̒̓̔̽̾̿̀́͂̓̈́͆͊͋͌̕̚ͅ͏͓͔͕͖͙͚͐͑͒͗͛ͣͤͥͦͧͨͩͪͫͬͭͮͯ͘͜͟͢͝͞͠͡wỚ̴̵̶̷̸̡̢̧̨̖̗̘̙̜̝̞̟̠̣̤̥̦̩̪̫̬̭̮̯̰̱̲̳̹̺̻̼͇͈͉͍͎̂̃̄̅̆̇̈̉̊̋̌̍̎̏̐̑̒̓̔̽̾̿̀́͂̓̈́͆͊͋͌̕̚ͅ͏͓͔͕͖͙͚͐͑͒͗͛ͣͤͥͦͧͨͩͪͫͬͭͮͯ͘͜͟͢͝͞͠͡ Stone located in S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island, which unfortunately is a place that I cannot access myself. Kxem and the others are the only ones, among the people living in the part of Pan that I can access, that can access S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island. That is why I'm doing whatever I can to reach my goal", explained Duckle.
"I will help you. I will convince the others to bring you there", said Â̜, breathing heavily, sweating, and feeling her heart beating fast. Whenever she looked at Duckle's face, she felt a happy euphoric feeling, and she was confused as to what that feeling was. She had never felt such an intense positive feeling before. Perhaps Duckle was more aware of what Â̜ was feeling compared to Â̜ herself. Duckle was thinking that perhaps Â̜ was having a crush on him, and he wondered whether Â̜ was even realizing it or not.
"Thank you, Â̜. DUCK HEAL!", shouted Duckle, and the duck near Duckle sent a healing energy towards Â̜, who was healed from the physical damage she took from the explosion caused by the Duck Cannon.
"Thank you for healing me, Duckle. Let's ask Anna and Kxem to bring you to the place you need to go!", said Â̜, still feeling euphoric and happy from looking at Duckle. Â̜ and Duckle were slowly walking towards Anna and hÒllÓween, which were keeping their guard high.
"Anna. hÒllÓween. Let's bring Duckle to S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island. He has people to save. He has some relief to bring to people who are suffering. Let's call Kxem, and let's go", said Â̜, feeling determined, and willing to help Duckle.
"I won't give up so easily...", said Anna, barely able to stand up, "...you two have to defeat us first", she said, with a weak but determined smile on her face.
"Anna. Let's bring Duckle where he wants. We stand no chance. Especially now that Â̜ is allied with Duckle", said hÒllÓween, accepting defeat.
"hÒllÓween. If you don't want to fight, feel free to escape, or ally with Duckle. Do as you wish. I will not give up.", said Anna, determined and regaining some of her energies back from her sheer determination. hÒllÓween was inspired by Anna's determination, and decided to fight, too. For what he was fighting, he didn't really understand nor care, he just wanted to prove Anna and Duckle that he was strong enough to fight.
"Okay, Anna. I will fight against Duckle with you. I won't give up either", he said, determined, inspired by Anna.
"Do you two really want to fight against us? Okay, then! Let me try out some things I have learned during infinite years of spiritual introspection.", said Â̜, feeling determined to help Duckle, whatever it takes. "PARASITE PLAGUE!", she shouted. A swarm of flies, mosquitoes and parasites were heavily surrounding Anna and hÒllÓween. At first, the two were scared, but they soon realized they weren't taking any damage at all from the Â̜'s Parasite Plague, so Anna laughed at Â̜, thinking that spell was just some kind of bluff to scare them. Despite that, Â̜ was having a proud smirk on her face, and Anna was wondering whether that was just a bluff, or whether that was an attack she should fear instead.
"Your attack dealt no damage to us, Â̜. Stop interfering. We will defeat Duckle", said Anna, determined.
"Right. I will take care of it", said hÒllÓween, preparing to fight, "During my childhood in Racistan, I have learned how to fight by interpreting the school teachings in a very unorthodox way. My childhood emotional traumas have made me stronger, for some reason. Now, I shall show you my power. CRITICAL BLADE THEORY!", he said, showing his left hand, from which his spell released a thousand blades, capable of causing considerable damage to several enemies at once.
"SLOW!", shouted Â̜, casting a spell which made the thousand blades move extremely slowly, so slow, that they would take a few hours to hit Duckle and Â̜.
"W-what...", mumbled hÒllÓween, shocked by Â̜'s power, shortly before being attacked by the swarm of parasites that were surrounding him since Â̜ casted the Parasite Plague spell, causing him extreme damage and knocking him out in a fraction of a second, making him no longer able to fight.
"hÒllÓween!!!", cried Anna, shocked and in fear, "YOU BASTARDS!", yelled Anna at Â̜ and Duckle, furious, ready to fight as hard as she could, but she wasn't sure she could defeat Â̜ and Duckle by herself, as it seemed like they were immensely powerful.
"We have won, Anna. Now, let's go ask Kxem to bring Duckle to S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island", said Â̜, enjoying Duckle's victory. She was feeling a strong but mysterious emotion that she couldn't understand, but it felt really good to her, so she decided to act on it as much as possible. She wanted to protect and please Duckle at all costs. Just thinking about Duckle was giving her pleasant tingles throughout her mind and body.
"You have not won. The battle has just begun...", said Anna, coughing up blood a little due to the lack of her energies and the lasting damages caused by the indirect explosion of the Duck Cannon destroying her Infinity Shield. Anna was lying to herself, she didn't think she could ever win against Â̜ and Duckle, but out of principle, she didn't want to give up.
"Are you sure you still want to fight, Anna? You look so weak, so injured. But in that case, I will give you one tip out of pity: beware of my parasites. Also... MUTE!", Â̜ said, casting a spell against Anna, Mute, which prevents the enemy from casting any spell at all.
"Of course I will still fight. I will never give up. Prepare to lose", said Anna, trying to feel determined, "INFINITY WAVE! W-what? W-why did nothing h... HAAA!!!". Anna tried to cast an attack towards Â̜ and Duckle, but failed, as nothing happened. Shortly afterwards, she was ferociously bitten by the swarm of parasites that were surrounding her. Just like hÒllÓween, she was knocked out very quickly, losing a fight she was feeling so determined winning.
"Seems like they both lost so quickly. Now, they have no choice but to bring you to S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island, Duckle", said Â̜, satisfied.
"Thank you, Â̜", said Duckle, feeling grateful.
"REVIVE!", Â̜ casted a spell which revived both Anna and hÒllÓween.
"Accept your defeat, and let's ask Kxem to bring Duckle to S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island", said Â̜, feeling satisfied and powerful.
"Uhrgh... okay...", said Anna, still feeling weak, still surrounded by a swarm of parasites. hÒllÓween agreed too.
"CANCEL PARASITES! CANCEL MUTE! CANCEL SLOW!", said Â̜, reverting the effects of her spell, "Let's go, now"
"(Dear heavens, this girl Â̜ is much more powerful than I thought. She would had been a tough opponent to defeat, if she didn't ally with me)", thought Duckle, surprised by Â̜'s power.
Â̜, Anna, Duckle and hÒllÓween started walking towards where Kxem and the others were hiding during the battle. Once they have arrived, Kxem and the others were surprised that Duckle won.
"Okay, fine. After all, what could possibly go wrong?", said Kxem, shrugging.
"DUCK SHOW!", said Duckle, and the multiship came back to existence, even though that was not the same place where it was originally hidden. They all entered the multiship, and now they were 12 people inside of it, travelling to unknown places and exploring Pan. It seemed like the 'family' of travellers was getting bigger with time. Â̜, Uli, Anna, Ezeg, Kxem, David, Ellie, Frefa, Duckle, Miyoko, Samantha and hÒllÓween.
"Let's go!", said Â̜, blushing.
Once they were all inside the multiship, Kxem asked Duckle for the coordinates of S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island, so that they could arrive at destination.
"The coordinates are in this device. I know your multiship's software recognizes this type of devices, that's also why I have chosen you for this mission. Other than your multiship being the only vehicle within my reach that can physically access S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island", explained Duckle. His explanation made Kxem a little bit confused, so he asked him a question.
"Do you mean, you can't access every place in Pan?", asked Kxem.
"That's right, and neither can your multiship, or any vehicle, or any method", explained Duckle, "We all are parts of Pan, and we can all access only a part of Pan"
"Does it mean, my multiship can only access a finite amount of places?", asked Kxem, feeling a bit disappointed.
"No, Kxem. Your multiship can access an infinite amount of places in Pan, but not all of them", explained Duckle. His explanation made Kxem feel even more confused.
"But... Pan is infinite! So if my multiship can access an infinite amount of places, doesn't it mean that it can access every place in Pan?", asked Kxem, confused.
"No. The concept of 'everything' is different from the concept of 'infinity'. In fact, 'everything' is much bigger than 'infinity'. Think about all the even positive integers. They are infinite, for sure, but are they every positive integer? Or every number? Of course not. Odd positive integers are also infinite, but they are not every positive integer out there. They are two infinities that don't overlap, and yet, they are both infinite, even though none of the two contains all positive integers. The set of all positive integers is also infinite, and it might sound counterintuitive, but it's the same size of infinity as either even positive integers or odd positive integers. It's a countable infinity, because you can order all the numbers in a precise infinite sequence. Positive integers are infinite, but they are not every number that there is. In fact, even though they're infinite, they don't contain non-integer rational numbers, or negative integers. And even if you have a set that contains those other two as well, it's the same size of infinity, because there are methods by which you can count and order all those numbers. And yet, that set, despite being infinite, is not 'every number', because irrational numbers, such as the square root of 2 or pi, also exist. If you add irrational numbers to the set, the set's size becomes an uncountable infinity, which is not the same as a countable infinity. And even in this case, you haven't included 'all numbers', because the set doesn't include imaginary numbers, transfinite numbers, and non-computable numbers, for example. And even if you included them in the set, there would still be other types of numbers left, and so on and so on, forever. Pan is a mysterious entity, and whenever you think you understand what Pan is, you immediately realize you got it wrong, and that Pan is much more than you thought it was. There are some places in Pan that we would never be able to comprehend, such as places that have 2.75 spatial dimensions instead of the 3 we're used to, or an imaginary number of spatial dimensions, or a flow of time shaped like an unknown pi-dimensional shape instead of a simple one-dimensional line of past, present and future like common mortals are used to conceptualize it. Your multiship can access an infinite amount of places in Pan, but not all of them. I could never access S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island directly, due to the limitations of my means of self-transportation, but your multiship can, so I did all I could to make you bring me there and save the people of Serjin from the shadow creatures", explained Duckle.
"All those complicated words, my head is spinning!", said Samantha, in a goofy humor.
"Duckle is right. I'm infinite years old, and I know an infinite amount of things... but I don't know everything. In fact, compared to all that there is to know, I can positively say that I actually know nothing at all.", said Anna, feeling a little bit disappointed as she remembered the common people in Philosophistan exhalting her like a goddess, something that made her feel good and important, but also a bit ashamed, as she felt like she wasn't worth of that amount of praise. This talk about infinity made Â̜ want to say something too.
"I'm also infinite years old", said Â̜, "and despite what might sound obvious, infinity can end much sooner than you think. I come from a reality where life has no beginning, but it has an end. I can remember infinite things about my infinite life, I can go back to ten years in the past, a hundred years, a thousand years, a million, a billion, a trillion, a googolplex years ago and much, much longer in the past, and no matter how far in the past I try to remember, I was always alive, I can't remember of a time I didn't exist, or a time when I was born, because I have always existed, and I always have been infinite years old. But, that doesn't mean I would live forever. I managed to escape from my reality when I had just 1,500 more years left to live, and then I met all of you guys and I'm so happy! A lot of people in my reality, immediately before dying, publicly announced that they would never had thought that infinity could end so soon. It's crazy when you think how quickly infinity can end. It's basically the opposite of an infinite life where you are born at a specific time, and will live forever, and never die. In my case, I was never born, I have always existed, but I was going to die at a precise time. Both of those lives are, of course, infinitely long. Infinity is so weird!", she explained, feeling mindblown.
"I've been waiting for the right moment to save people in Serjin for a long time. When this multiship landed in Procedural Springs during the month of Ruzumomi, I knew that was my perfect occasion. I can appear in people's minds when their consciousness is altered, such as the hallucinations that happen during a Ruzu, but I can also do that when people take psychedelic drugs, or when they're having a hallucination on their own. Unfortunately, as soon as the altered state is over, I disappear from that person's mind. I appeared in David's mind right before sunrise, when the Ruzu would be over, so I installed fear in David's mind, because fear is what make people remember me. I fired the Duck Cannon while intentionally missing him. My goal was never killing him, I just wanted to make him feel fear, because when I install fear in someone's mind, I can track their locations, so in this case I would have managed to get access to Kxem's multiship and reach S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island. Duckily, a fourth wall had been breaked at the right time, and by trespassing it, I could control David's mind and other people's minds in the multiship for a few seconds each, convincing Samantha to unlock the door of her bedroom and Kxem to land at the right place. I have been really ducky all this time, but now I should try to get the Ờ̴̵̶̷̸̡̢̧̨̖̗̘̙̜̝̞̟̠̣̤̥̦̩̪̫̬̭̮̯̰̱̲̳̹̺̻̼͇͈͉͍͎̂̃̄̅̆̇̈̉̊̋̌̍̎̏̐̑̒̓̔̽̾̿̀́͂̓̈́͆͊͋͌̕̚ͅ͏͓͔͕͖͙͚͐͑͒͗͛ͣͤͥͦͧͨͩͪͫͬͭͮͯ͘͜͟͢͝͞͠͡wỚ̴̵̶̷̸̡̢̧̨̖̗̘̙̜̝̞̟̠̣̤̥̦̩̪̫̬̭̮̯̰̱̲̳̹̺̻̼͇͈͉͍͎̂̃̄̅̆̇̈̉̊̋̌̍̎̏̐̑̒̓̔̽̾̿̀́͂̓̈́͆͊͋͌̕̚ͅ͏͓͔͕͖͙͚͐͑͒͗͛ͣͤͥͦͧͨͩͪͫͬͭͮͯ͘͜͟͢͝͞͠͡ Stone, and it's not going to be easy", explained Duckle. David understood Duckle likely was being sincere and that he didn't want to hurt him, so he felt a little bit better and safer, and less scared.
"I have had a really bad childhood", explained Â̜, "the reason why people died in the reality I grew up in, is because they were killed. Everyone had a precise date they would be killed, after an infinitely long existence that would end at some point. I had 1,500 years left before they would be killed. Luckily, I have managed to escape, but I wasn't supposed to", she explained her terrible, infinite childhood.
"You're in a better place now", said Duckle, smiling and trying to comfort her.
"I have also had a bad childhood", explained hÒllÓween, "I grew up in Racistan, a country that believes in an ideology that divides people in at least two 'races', which are made to fight against each other, sometimes killing each other, for no useful reason. If someone is a different race from you, then Racistani ideology commands you to treat that person differently just for it. Each 'race' is also told that the other 'race' is oppressing them, so that everyone could hate each other even more, for no particular reason other than they're being told to feel that way, and the people obey unquestioningly. Not only that, but each 'race' is requested to act in a specific way and believe in specific ideas, and feel in a certain way about things, otherwise they're a 'traitor'. Where I grew up, the main 'races' were Mindovians, Druwarians, Polbrulians and some others. For example, Polbrulians were commanded to rejoice and applaud whenever a police officer was brutal to someone or even killed someone. Criticizing or even failing to express support towards the brutal cops would lead to severe persecution, sometimes death, to the rebel anti-conformist Polbrulian. I remember, when I was a teenager, about a debate whether Polbrulians should express support only towards brutal Polbrulian cops, or towards brutal cops in general, regardless of their race. Those two were the only two viewpoints that Polbrulians were allowed to express, creating the illusion of debate and freedom of opinion for Polbrulians. The two groups debated a lot, sometimes vigorously, but only those two viewpoints were ever expressed, and allowed to be expressed. Any other option was almost unthinkable for Polbrulians. Racistan was such an awful country, it left me with several emotional traumas, and with a hollow feeling haunting me since then", he explained.
"I don't remember anything about my childhood, other than the Artificial Intelligence Utopia attacking our town and erasing all my memories, shortly before escaping from that place and moving to Centralia", explained Miyoko.
"My childhood was not happy either", explained Kxem, "but I'd rather not talk about it"
"I grew up on a planet called Gaia, but where I lived it was known as 'Earth'. It was kinda awful, full of wars, hate, hunger, poverty, genocides and persecutions. It was so bad I'm pretty sure it could rival some of the places y'all grew up in. But I'm sure there is far worse than Gaia, somewhere in Pan. I'm glad to be here with all of you, though. Hehehe~", said Samantha.
"The place I grew up in was attacked by the Shadow Creatures a long time ago, injuring and killing several people every day, causing immense pain, suffering and destruction. Duckily, the situation will be solved soon. Hopefully", said Duckle.
"My childhood was not happy at all either", explained Uli, "I grew up in Eproctophiliophobistan, a country where having a fart fetish is a very serious crime and is punished with death. And...", he explained, blushing embarrassed, "I did and still do have a fart fetish. Despite all the caution and privacy and security protections and VPN's I had, the Eproctophiliophobistani government caught me watching a girl fart animation, due to a government backdoor that was installed on my PC at the BIOS-level, and I was sentenced to death. Damn proprietary closed-source software! To me that is malware instead! Luckily, I have managed to escape from that country, getting rid of all of my Internet-connected devices, then travelling through the Republic of Murdakia, a country where wearing a yellow t-shirt is a very serious crime and is punished with death, to Centralia, where I met Kxem and Samantha and started travelling with them in the multiship. Luckily I had no yellow t-shirts with me in Murdakia, so I could be safe from the wrath of the Murdakian 'justice system'. It was a very stressful journey. My childhood left me with emotional traumas and a feeling of paranoia. I'm still afraid the Eproctophiliophobistani government is still looking for me, still wishing to kill me. I try not to worry too much about it, however", he explained.
"Don't worry, Uli, now your fart fetish is no longer a repressed desire. You know you can smell my farts~I'm a very gassy girl~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling happily.
"Samantha... please... don't say these things... not in front of others... it's embarrassing...", said Uli, sweating embarrassed.
"Sorry, Uli~speaking of being gassy~I need to fart now~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling and finding it fun that she had to fart.
***PPPBBBRRRSSSFFFTTT***
"DUCK!", yelled Duckle, and a duck appeared near him. Everyone freaked out, thinking that Duckle would destroy the multiship and kill everyone.
"DUCK ANOSMIA!", yelled Duckle. Apparently, nothing destructive happened.
"What was that?", asked Kxem, panicking.
"Now I can't smell anything! Samantha's farts are none of my business, they're you guys' problem only!", expained Duckle, laughing.
"I probably shouldn't ask you why you have such a skill in your inventory", said Kxem, sweating embarrassed.
"I have fought against some skunk-like enemies in my life, thinking that they could defeat me just because I look like a duck, walk like a duck, and quack like a duck. But they were wrong, Duck Anosmia proved to be a really useful spell in those fights. Having me as an enemy means running out of duck!", explained Duckle, with a proud smile, for some reason.
"Uh... okay. Anyway, Duckle, could you please...... PHEW! EWW!!! Samantha's farts really do stink!", said Kxem, wafting the air away from him and covering his nose with his t-shirt, "Duckle, could you please give me that device so I can enter the coordinates and bring you to S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island?", he asked.
"Oh, yeah, I was about to forget. Here's the device", said Duckle, giving it to Kxem, "It's gonna take a while to reach S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island, though, because that place is filled with a really bizarre, repulsive, anomalous energy", Duckle explained.
"Okay!", said Kxem, inserting the device on the multiship's device reader and confirming the coordinates, "In the meanwhile, we can just chat, or something like that. I hope you won't get bored"
"Ah, don't worry about that", said Duckle, "The most important thing is to free the people of Serjin from the curse of the Shadow Creatures"
***PPPBBBRRRFFFSSSTTT***
"SAMANTHA!", shouted Kxem, playfully irritated, "Don't fart near me! It stinks! And I'm not into that!"
"Ohh come on my farts don't smell that bad, Kxem! What about your farts, Duckle? How bad do they smell? Hehehe~", asked Samantha, wondering whether it was truly not a bad idea to ask Duckle such kind of questions.
Duckle blushed, feeling embarrassed. "I suppose they smell... average? I don't know. It's embarrassing, please don't ask me these questions", said Duckle, pouting and blushing, becoming red like the one fruit that is so severely forbidden in Tomatophobistan.
"But I want to know! Can I smell your farts, Duckle?~", she asked, with a cute smug smile on her face.
"W-what?", Duckle felt even more embarrassed and surprised, and dumbfounded as well.
"NO!", yelled Â̜, "Duckle is mine!", she said, feeling jealous.
"You want to smell Duckle's farts?", asked Samantha to Â̜, feeling a bit confused.
"N-NO!", yelled Â̜, embarrassed, "It's just... I feel something strange whenever I look at Duckle... or whenever I think about him... I don't know what this feeling is, but it feels so good...", explained Â̜, blushing.
"Did you fall in love with Duckle? Hehehe~", asked Samantha, which made both Â̜ and Duckle blush.
"Love?! Is this what love feels like? No way! For infinite years, I had been wondering if love even existed. So, does this mean I found love? Does it really feel like this?", said Â̜, feeling surprised, shocked and confused.
"I think so~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling.
"Uhm... this feels so weird... fine! You can do that thing with Duckle if he wants... I don't mind...", said Â̜, feeling confused about her feelings.
"So, Duckle, can I smell your farts or not?~", asked Samantha, smirking.
"Uh... if that makes you happy...", said Duckle, blushing embarrassed.
"Samantha, I would like to smell your farts too!", said Uli, a bit embarrassed too.
"No problem, Uli! Let's all go to my bedroom!", said Samantha, excited, "Hey David, do you want to come with us too?", she asked.
"No, thanks! I still want to gag whenever I think about the last time! Eww! Also Duckle still kinda scares me. No offense, Duckle", said David, remembering the revolting stench he had to endure from Samantha and Miyoko in that bedroom, and the encounter he had with Duckle before the end of that Ruzu back in Procedural Springs.
"Okay then! Let's go, Duckle and Uli!", she said. Samantha, Duckle and Uli went into Samantha's bedroom in the multiship, and were ready for the gassy fun.
"Wait a moment!", said Uli, wanting to make an important observation, "Duckle will fart on your face, and you will fart on mine. Is that right, Samantha? But, I don't want to smell any of Duckle's farts. It would turn me off a lot!", he explained.
"I have a solution for that", said Duckle.
"Oh, really?", said Uli, curious.
"DUCK SELECTIVE ANOSMIA!", yelled Duckle, and a strange energy came from the little duck near Duckle into Uli's nostrils.
"Now you won't be able to smell my farts. But you will be able to smell Samantha's farts... and everything else, of course", explained Duckle.
"Do you have a fart ready for me, Duckle?~", asked Samantha, excited to smell Duckle's flatulence.
"No, not yet. I don't fart all the time like you do, I'm not very gassy", said Duckle, shrugging, while Samantha felt mildly disappointed at that.
"I am very gassy, however. Uli, I have to fart now, feel free to press your nose between your asscheeks, I know you want to~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling happily. Uli did as she said, his nose was comfortably sandwiched between Samantha's asscheeks, and he was waiting for the fart, which didn't take long for Samantha to unleash with full force and stench.
***PPPBBBRRRFFFSSSTTT***
A hot, smelly wind burned Uli's nose and face, and he started coughing from the stench, but he loved that feeling, it was what he always had been fantasizing as a child and teenager back in Eproctophiliophobistan, where such an activity he was daydreaming about was illegal. The sexual fantasies of a criminal, as each behavior or sexual preference or even food or clothing or anything else is illegal in at least one place, somewhere in Pan, which contains literally everything. Eating tomatoes, for example, is illegal in Tomatophobistan, and wearing a yellow t-shirt is illegal in Murdakia. What is a crime in one place could very well be accepted or even a virtue somewhere else, a phenomenon known as moral relativism in philosophy. Uli could feel his nostrils burning from the putrid stench of Samantha's fart, and that's what he loved, very smelly farts that come from a girl's ass.
"I have another fart coming, Uli. Be prepared~", said Samantha, with a proud smug face.
***PPPBBBRRRFFFSSSTTTSSSFFF***
"Aaahhh~", Samantha let out a proud and satisfied sigh of relief, "I hope my fart stinks really bad! Are you having trouble breathing back there? Hehehe!~", said Samantha, giggling happily and proudly as Uli was now starting to gag at the stench of her farts, "hey Duckle! If Pan is infinite, does that mean there are infinite girls with farts smellier than mine?~", she asked.
"Yes, of course!", said Duckle, "Pan contains everything you can think of and can't think of, that shouldn't be surprising", he explained.
"Is there even a girl who can stink up an entire planet with her farts?", asked Samantha, feeling excited at that thought.
"Yes, of course. I told you. Pan contains literally everything", said Duckle.
"What about a girl who can stink up an entire galaxy with her farts?", asked Samantha, feeling even more excited.
"Yes, there is an infinite amount of those kind of girls, in Universes where the laws of physics allow such amount of gas pressures and masses to spread evenly to such a large area like a galaxy, mixed with oxygen and maybe even nitrogen so that you can actually breathe in the interstellar space and it would make sense to say it has been 'stunk up'. In the kind of Universe where you grew up, however, that is not possible, due to the laws of physics for example gravity would probably not allow such a huge amount of mass and gas pressure to be spread so evenly across the entire galaxy, and the interstellar space would mostly be vacuum, as it already is. But I might be wrong about that, Pan is really weird and unpredictable, laws of physics routinely change suddenly and unexpectedly in infinite places of Pan all the time", explained Duckle. His explanation confused Samantha with those technical astronomical 'big' words, but she understood the main concept: there are infinite girls who can stink up an entire galaxy with their farts, if the laws of physics of the Universe they live in allow for such a thing.
"I would love to meet a girl with farts much smellier than mine!", said Samantha, feeling super excited.
"This multiship can detect whether a place has an ongoing war, for example, or whether a government is so authoritarian they will jail you or put you to death for stupid reasons. But, I don't think this multiship can detect the presence of such kind of girls, as Kxem has made clear that he's not into that, so that's probably not an idea he built this multiship in mind. You would need to know the precise coordinates of such a place where such a girl lives", Duckle explained.
"Aww that's okay. Farting on Uli's face is satisfying enough for me, anyway~speaking of farting in Uli's face~"
***BBBPPPRRRFFFRRRTTTRRRTTTSSSFFF***
"EWW!!! THIS ONE IS DEADLY, SAMANTHA! I'll get my nose out of here...", said Uli, gagging a lot from the stench and trying to place his nose away from Samantha's ass, but she was keeping his head still with her hand, preventing him from escaping.
"No, Uli~your nose is gonna stay between my asscheeks~I know it stinks, but that's the point of the gassy fun, don't you think?~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling, as Uli's eyes were watering from the stench of her farts and his gagging was becoming more desperate, as the stench that was pumped into his nostrils was simply revolting and smelled like an egg & veggie salad gone really bad.
"Samantha, Uli is suffering because your flatulence is too smelly. You should let him go", said Duckle, worried about Uli.
"Oh, come on, Duckle, we're just playing, he likes it! Look!"
***BBBPPPBBBRRRFFFSSSFFFSSS***
Uli was groaning loudly, gagging and dry retching, begging for Samantha to let him go. Duckle looked at Samanta and nodded in disapproval.
"But it's fun!", said Samantha, wanting to make Uli choke in her stinky flatulence as much as possible.
"Uli doesn't seem to be playing right now, if I have to be honest with you. Also, if you don't let Uli go now, I won't let you smell my farts", said Duckle, hoping that would convince Samanta to let Uli breathe some fresh air since his nose was being drenched in the unbearable stink of her farts and choking from that putrid, rancid, nauseating smell.
"Okay! Okay! You can go now, Uli", said Samantha, no longer keeping his head still with her hand. Uli quickly rushed near the walls of the bedroom, trying to stay as far away as possible from Samantha's gassy ass, and still gagging and dry retching because of the lingering stench in his nostrils. He sure looked like he was having a really hard time with that smell.
"Are you okay, Uli?", asked Duckle, "Do you want me to cast Duck Anosmia on you, so you can no longer smell anything?", he asked, offering for help.
"No, thanks, Duckle. Eww... *gags* such a horrible smell *gags* it fried my nose and brain *retch* but... I love it *gag* this stench and this feeling is so inebriating *gag* *gag*", Uli expressed how horribly stinky Samantha's farts are, and how he loved suffering from that smell, gagging and suffering from the stench that lingered in his nostrils, while he was talking.
"Uhm... okay?", Duckle was a bit confused, this 'gassy fun' was a bizarre activity for him, but nonetheless he didn't want to judge Uli and Samantha for liking it.
"Uli, I have another fart for you, are you sure you don't want to take a whiff? Are my farts too smelly for you?~hehehe~", said Samantha, inviting Uli to take a whiff of her next, upcoming fart that needs to be released from her tummy.
"I'm going to smell it!", said Uli, putting his nose between Samantha's asscheecks again, ready for another dose of stench.
"Get ready, then, Uli. I'm about to fart!~"
***BBBPPPBBBRRRFFFTTTSSS***
"EEEWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! URGH... AAA...", Uli looked like he was agonizing in the stench, and he quickly moved his nose elsewhere, but he was gagging so harshly and squirming on the floor, lacking energy. And he was not doing so playfully. But, he enjoyed the olfactive suffering Samantha's farts were able to provide him.
"I have met plenty of bizarre people in my life, but you two sometimes scare me", said Duckle, shivering from the awkwardness and strangeness of Uli's masochism.
"Don't judge him, he has grown up in a place where this simple pleasure is a crime punished with the death penalty, he had to go through an intense, long, stressful and dangerous journey to come here with us. I don't blame him for how he feels", explained Samantha.
"I see. Anyway, Samantha, I have a fart now, so, if you want... HEY!", said Duckle, offering to let Samantha smell his farts, and of course he didn't have to finish his sentence that Samantha was already with her face behind Duckle's posterior, ready to breathe his fart in as much as possible. "Ah, nevermind. You can touch my rear with your nose, I'm giving you such privilege!", said Duckle, proud of himself as usual, and of course Samantha immediately did exactly that.
%%%PBRFTS%%%
"Oh, that's a small one", said Samantha, sniffing it up as much as possible, "small but stinky, hehehe~I love your fart~even though it's not as smelly as mine~hehehehehehe~~~", said Samantha, giggling happy of smelling Duckle's fart, happy that they were quite smelly, but also happy that hers were even smellier than his, "hey Uli, I have another fart for you, come here!~~~", said Samantha, and Uli got up from the ground, slowly and weakly, still nauseated by her fart, but still wishing for more, so he put his nose between Samantha's asscheeks again, ready for the stinky blast.
***BBBPPPBBBRRRSSSFFFSSS***
"URGH...", Uli was having serious struggles trying not to puke, his eyes were watering and his nose was burning, but he enjoyed suffering like that, and wasn't willing to give up. He wanted to prove himself, Samantha and perhaps even Duckle, that he was strong enough to handle Samantha's farts, stronger than the previous time. He tried his best to keep his nose between Samanta's asscheecks, but the stench was too rancid, nauseating and repulsive that he couldn't avoid moving his nose away from that, almost like when you quickly remove your hand after accidentally touching a scalding hot object, even though in a less extreme way than that.
"My farts are too smelly for the weak Uli~hehehehe~~", said Samantha, giggling happily, proud of herself and of her stinky farts, while Uli was feeling a bit ashamed of himself for not being able to handle the smell of Samantha's farts. Even though her farts stunk really badly, Uli wanted to prove himself and Samantha that there is no such thing as 'too smelly' when it comes to girls' farts, that he didn't put so much effort escaping from Eproctophiliophobistan for nothing.
"N-no...", said Uli, "I'll prove you I'm strong enough...", he said, immediately before retching so hard he sounded like he was about to puke and throw his soul up at some point, sooner or later, "Now that I think about it, you are right, Samantha, your farts smell noxious", he admitted, gagging over and over again, incontrollably at this point. Samantha giggled happily and kept feeling proud of herself as this confirmed that she was right about Uli not being able to handle the smell of her ass gas. She said 'yay', grinned happily, and felt happy and proud.
"Do you have any more farts for me, dear Duckle?~", asked Samantha, hoping to be able to smell some more of Duckle's spicy flatulence. He nodded his head to say 'no'.
"No, Samantha. I don't fart that often. I will let you know the next time I have to fart, if you would like", he said, offering to please Samantha in this simple way that didn't require that much of an effort, even though it was kinda embarrassing. Samantha was very happy and grateful to Duckle because of that.
"Yes, thank you so much, Duckle! I'm grateful to you!", said Samantha, feeling happy and excited, while Duckle blushed a bit.
"Ah, it's not a problem, really. Just a little bit embarrassing, you know. Don't talk about this with the others, though, okay? I know they already know about it since you announced it earlier, but I'd prefer if you do not mention it again, okay?", requested Duckle, still feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Don't worry Duckle, I will not mention this to the others! It's just between me and you! Hey Uli, I have to fart again, come here!", said Samantha.
"N-no... no more farts... they stink too much...", mumbled Uli, lying on the floor of the bedroom, weak and nausated, feeling like he was about to puke if he received any other fart on his nose.
"What do you mean 'no'? Do I have to force you to smell them?", asked Samantha, feeling disappointed that a fart of hers will go wasted in the air of her bedroom instead of Uli's nose.
"If you do that, I will no longer let you smell my farts, Samantha", said Duckle, who was morally opposed to forcing Uli or anyone to smell farts. Samantha rolled her eyes and said:
"Okay, okay! I'll just let it out in the air"
***PPPBBBPPPRRRFFFTTTSSSFFF***
"Aaahhh... now the air inside this room stinks a little bit more than before~I'm proud to show you two my power~~", said Samantha, feeling proud of herself.
"I can't smell anything because I cast Duck Anosmia on myself, you forgot?", said Duckle, reminding Samantha.
"Uuuhhh... uuuggg... uuuhhhggg.... uuuggghhh... uuuhhhggghhh...", Uli was so weak and nauseated from having smelled Samantha's stinky farts that he could barely talk or even understand what anyone was saying.
"Oh. Okay, maybe it's not the best demonstration, but I still feel proud of myself. And I love being gassy. And stinking rooms up~hehehehe~~", announced Samantha, proud of her gas, as usual, "I'm about to stink up my own bedroom even more~I'm so gassy~~hehehe~~~"
***BBBPPPBBBRRRTTTSSSFFF***
Samantha wafted her own fart upwards, towards her own nostrils, and took a deep whiff, "eww... my farts do stink really bad... wow... I'm a gas weapon~hehehe~~", she said, with a deep sense of pride and satisfaction because of how bad her farts smelled, and she was also satisfied that someone (Uli) had smelled so many of her farts. Since Uli was no longer willing or even able to smell her farts, she decided to just release her own flatulence in the air of her own bedroom, looking forward to stink it up as much as possible.
***BBBPPPRRRTTTSSSFFF***
"Aaahhh...~~~", Samantha was feeling relieved as she released the excess air that fermented in her stomach, stinking her own bedroom up even more tha before. The stench in her bedroom was becoming heavier and heavier, and Uli couldn't find peace or relief from that horrible stench that permeated the entire area.
****BBBBPPPPRRRRTTTTSSSSFFFF****
"Aaaahhhh this one was huge....~~~~", said Samantha, feeling even more satisfied. She loved farting, the feeling of relief from the release felt wonderful, as well as the satisfaction of stinking up an entire room, essentially marking it as your territory, a primordial biological instinct that awakens in the right situations. It was almost as if Uli's face was becoming green from the intense stench that was building up in the bedroom, and Duckle was noticing it.
"Samantha, I think we should bring Uli out of here, he seems to feel sick from the smell of your digestion byproduct gases", said Duckle, pointing at Uli, who managed to understand what they were saying, and weakly gave a thumbs up sign, perhaps to indicate that he was okay, or perhaps he was pretending that he was okay so that he could falsely indicate that he was 'strong enough to handle the smell of Samantha's farts', and Duckle was more convinced of the second option.
"Auuaaahhhh.....", Uli groaned weakly, but at the same time he did a thumbs up. Samantha interpreted it as 'he's okay', while Duckle interpreted it as 'he's trying to look strong and resistant to make a good impression to Samantha'. Both Samantha and Duckle agreed to let Uli stay in the bedroom, anyway, because of the thumbs up sign he was giving with his hand.
***BBBPPPRRRTTTSSSFFF***
"Aaahhh... Uli is staying in this stinky bedroom~~~hehehe~~~", said Samantha, feeling relieved, satisfied, proud and happy. She could feel pleasant tingles at the thought her farts are so stinky they make people gag.
"Samantha, I think if you keep releasing your malodorant scents like this, Uli will soon no longer be able to even give a thumbs up, and he will probably pass out completely", said Duckle, worrying about Uli.
"Don't worry about that, Duckle. He'll be okay~", said Samantha, giggling happily and believing in Uli's strength and resistance, hoping to make Uli feel better for the fact that she's not underestimating his tolerance to the smell of her farts (or maybe she's overestimating it?).
***PPPBBBPPPRRRFFFSSSTTT***
"No fart is too smelly for Uli, if it's me who lets it out~he loves smelling my gas, he always asks me to let him smell it~", said Samantha, loving how Uli asked her to smell her farts so often. Pretty much nobody other than him asks her something like that, but after spending one's childhood and teenage years with the idea something is illegal, sometimes the desire of that illegal thing grows dramatically, making one insane, especially if it's something that arises naturally, like a fart fetish. People in Tomatophobistan at least are safe from that desire, if they have never eaten a tomato in their lives and don't even know how it tastes like, it's difficult to desire it, but for something like fart fetish, that's a different situation entirely. An illegal black market of girl fart animations, Onara RPG's and fart drawings flourishes underground in certain areas of Eproctophiliophobistan, with very strict privacy and safety protections and also anti-snitch protections to prevent the government from seeing what's going on, or else, they risk their lives by drawing and seeing that stuff. The more lucky manage to emigrate, or escape, somewhere else, just as Uli did. Even Murdakia is a huge improvement for a fart fetishist compared to Eproctophiliophobistan, all you have to do is avoid wearing or even owning a yellow t-shirt and you'll be fine.
The room was becoming extremely smelly, it didn't feel like a bedroom anymore, it felt like an experimental torture chamber created by a mad sadistic scientist. It felt like it was unhospitable to most living beings with a sense of smell, even a mosquito would find the smell unbearable, perhaps. Suddenly, they heard a knock on the door. It was Miyoko.
"Hey friends! Can I join you in the gassy fun?", she asked.
"Of course Miyoko! Come in!~", said Samantha, hoping that Miyoko would react in some way to the smell in the bedroom.
Miyoko opened the door of Samantha's bedroom and was quickly assaulted by a very strong stench, she could immediately recognize that was Samantha's flatulence, she remembered that smell since the last time. Miyoko almost gagged, but had enough self-control to avoid that, and just made a sour, disgusted face instead, "wow Samantha, this room REEKS!", said Miyoko, "...and I'm gonna make it smell worse!", she continued, proud of herself, wanting to compete against Samantha once again. Miyoko closed the door of the bedroom to prevent the smell from leaking outside of the room any further.
"I'd love to see you try~", said Samantha, teasing her into a fart competition.
"No problem! In fact, I have one fart ready right now!", said Miyoko, "nnnggghhh..."
***PPPBBBRRRPPPBBBRRRTTTRRRFFFRRRSSSRRR***
"Aaaaaahhhhhh... that was a good one. It felt good to let it out!", said Miyoko, with a proud smile on her face, "be careful Samantha, it's gonna stink!", she said, grinning proudly.
"I can't smell anything because I cast Duck Anosmia on myself", said Duckle, pointing it out once again.
"We know, we know... you did that as soon as Samantha farted. You don't know what you're missing, Duckle", said Miyoko, crossing her arms and playfully rolling her eyes, smiling.
"And I don't even want to know. But I can imagine, don't worry", said Duckle, not wanting to experience how bad Samantha's (and Miyoko's) farts actually stunk.
As soon as the cabbagy stench of Miyoko's fart reached Samantha's nostrils, she tried her best not to gag, and barely succeeded. She didn't even waft the air away from her, she didn't want to give Miyoko the satisfaction of seeing that her farts were so smelly that they could affect Samantha, just like Uli did with Samantha, but failing really hard at that.
"So, what do you think about my fart? Did it stink?", Miyoko said, grinning confidently.
"A little bit", said Samantha, trying not to gag and to maintain at least a semi-normal face that didn't indicate too much disgust, "But it didn't stink as bad as my farts, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but here I am the queen of stinky farts, not you~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling proudly, and asserting the superiority ('superior' in the sense of 'more' or 'higher value', not 'better') of the stench of her farts compared to the farts of Miyoko, and that, of course, just increased Miyoko's desire to prove Samantha wrong.
"Can't we have some judge? We might be biased in favor of our own farts", asked Miyoko, wondering whether there was anyone else other than Uli in the multiship who was into smelling girls' farts and that was willing to be the judge, other than perhaps David, but he had already rejected the offer, and Ellie's not really into smelling farts herself, she farts on David mostly to please him, since he's into that kind of stuff. Duckle offered some advice, however:
"A judge is not necessarily unbiased. A judge might let one win over the other not necessarily because the flatulence was smellier. There could be a bias because of romantic attraction or physical attraction, for example. Or that person is more sensitive towards the more eggy aspect of the smell instead of the veggie aspect, for example, so perhaps the flatulence of one competitor was less smelly but the judge found it smellier because it smelled more eggy, while the other competitor's flatulence was actually smellier, but since it smelled more like rotten vegetables than rotten eggs, the judge found it less smelly, because of the way the judge's own sense of smell works, which might be different from the one of another person. A judge could also be bribed by money, even though I don't think that is going to happen here. Also, I don't understand why it's so important for you two to know whose digestion byproduct gases are smellier", he said, demonstrating the wisdom he achieved by socially interacting with a huge amount of different people around the parts of Pan he could access. He himself is a part of Pan, just like everyone else and everything else.
"Duckle is right! Also it's not very important at all, we're just playing~hehehe~", said Samantha, giggling happily and having fun.
"Right! But I'm still gonna stink up this bedroom even worse than before!", said Miyoko, feeling confident, "hey Samantha! Have you managed to smell Duckle's farts yet?", she asked, curious.
"Yeah! Just one. It was not as smelly as my farts, but it was still quite potent, I loved smelling it~", said Samantha, feeling happy of convincing a newly met person to be involved in the 'gassy fun'.
"Speaking of that, I have to fart again. Would you like to smell it, Samantha?", Duckle asked, smiling kindly.
"OF COURSE!", said Samantha, super excited, touching Duckle's ass with her nose, assuming he didn't mind, since he let her do that before.
"Okay then...", said Duckle, "get ready"
%%%PPBBRRTTSSFF%%%
"Uuurrrggghhh...", Samantha was hit in her nose and face with a fart that was bigger, stronger, louder and smellier than the previous one she has smelled from Duckle. She could barely contain herself from gagging, pretending that it wasn't THAT smelly, and that she could inhale it with no issues.
"Judging by your face, it seems like Duckle's fart stinks pretty bad, doesn't it?", said Miyoko, hoping and waiting until Samantha would gag so that she could tease her for not being able to handle the smell, and for being as haughty but weak as Uli. And speaking of Uli, even if the room stunk like hell, he managed to slowly get up and regain some of his forces and energies.
"I... I need to get out from here... it stinks too much...", mumbled Uli, weakly, trying to escape from the bedroom, but Miyoko had a different idea.
"Oh, shut up, Uli! You stay here", Miyoko said, grabbing Uli's head and shoving his nose up her anus.
***PPPBBBRRRBBBPPP***
"Ooohhhuuuhhhrrrggghhh...", Uli gagged hard and collapsed to the floor of the bedroom, with his eyes burning and watering, and with foam coming out of his mouth. His body and brain were fried from the horrifying stench that he was being forced to endure. Duckle was not approving of Miyoko's behavior.
"It stinks just fine, and by the way it's not as smelly as mine!", said Samantha, for whom it was gradually becoming harder not to gag, to avoid being teased by Miyoko, which for Samantha was something quite predictable that she was expecting.
"That's nice to hear, Samantha. I'm also kinda curious of what Duckle's farts smell like. Hey Duckle, next time you have to fart, could you please do that on my face?", asked Miyoko, curious to experience how bad Duckle's farts smell herself.
"Okay, but at a condition that we bring Uli out of this bedroom", said Duckle, "he tried to get out from here earlier, and we must respect his will", he said, bringing Uli's nausated body to the hallway of the multiship, making him sit near a wall, "please rest until you regain your energies, Uli", he said, then he returned to the bedroom.
"Fine, this bedroom is a bit too small for four people, anyway", said Miyoko, and Samantha agreed it was okay, it was nice to make Uli smell so many farts, until he lasted. Or until it lasted (the pronoun changes depending on the interpretation). "Now I can fart freely, without worrying about that weakling", Miyoko said, ready to fart once again, "nnnggghhh..."
****PPPPBBBBRRRRPPPPBBBBRRRR****
Samantha was finding it harder not to gag, as the stench of Miyoko's fart was not her own fart, other people's farts usually smell worse than one's own, so for Samantha, the smell of Miyoko's farts was slowly starting to feel suffocating, nauseating and intoxicating. She decided to counter Miyoko's fart with one of her farts. "I'm gassy too, you know~", Samantha said, about to let another one rip.
***PPPBBBRRRTTTSSSFFF***
The room was so smelly it was probably unsuitable for living beings with a sense of smell, and yet here they are, Samantha, Miyoko and Duckle, adapting to the harsh environment (-and maybe even developing some strange kind of mutations that allow them to survive in such extreme conditions? Smelly farts are not called 'radioactive' for nothing-).
"I have to fart. Would you like to smell it, Miyoko?", asked Duckle, offering to please her, too.
"Of course! I will sniff it deeply without gagging or making a disgusted face!", said Miyoko, grinning confidently, with an attitude of superiority ('superior' in the sense of 'better', not 'more' or 'higher value') and invincibility.
"You can touch my rear with your nose if you want, I don't mind", said Duckle, and of course Miyoko did it, "Get ready, I'm about to release it", he said:
%%%%%PPPPPBBBBBRRRRRFFFFFSSSSSTTTTT%%%%
"EEEWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! IT STINKS!!!", yelled Miyoko, moving her nose away from Duckle's ass, and gasping for fresh air, while Samantha was teasing Miyoko that she couldn't handle Duckle's farts. What Miyoko hoped to do to Samantha, she received it from Samantha instead. Miyoko felt like she was about to throw up, she didn't expect Duckle's farts to be so smelly. True, they didn't smell as bad as Samantha's, but indeed they were still 'quite potent', as Samantha described them earlier. Samantha was laughing at Miyoko for gagging so hard at the smell of Duckle's farts, and Miyoko got irritated at that attitude Samantha was having, so she (Miyoko) grabbed her (Samantha's) head and shoved her nose up her ass, between her asscheecks, just like she did with Uli, and was ready to unleash a fart hoping it will be smelly enough to 'shut Samantha's annoying mouth up', as she was hoping and fantasizing about.
***PPPBBBRRRFFFSSSTTTRRRBBBPPP***
"Uuuuuhhhhhuuuuuhhhhhrrrrrggggghhhhh.....", Miyoko's fart was so smelly that in the end, Samantha gagged and retched so hard, and her eyes, nose, nostrils, lungs and soul were burning from the stench of Miyoko's horrible flatulence, and she ended up collapsing on the floor like Uli, after receiving such a direct hit.
"Wow", said Duckle, relatively impressed.
Suddenly, they heard a knocking on the door. It was Kxem.
"Duckle, are you there? We have finally arrived at S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island, but this reality is so bizarre and confusing that I don't know what to do, or where to land. Could you come to the pilot room and explain it to me?", Kxem asked.
"Sure!", said Duckle, and he opened the door of the bedroom, so the revolting stench of farts that accumulated in the bedroom assaulted Kxem's nostrils really harshly, and he gagged really bad, while his eyes were also watering and burning.
"What the hell happened in that room? Biological warfare?", said Kxem, slowly walking back.
"No, it was just Samantha and Miyoko breaking wind all the time", said Duckle, not immediately understanding Kxem's rethorical speech.
"I know. Mine was just a hyperbolic statement, I didn't seriously think it was actually biological warfare. It really stinks in there. Really badly. Seriously", said Kxem, disgusted at what kind of suffocating smells Samantha and Miyoko were able to release from their asses.
Duckle, Kxem, Samantha, Miyoko, Uli and all the others were in the pilot room, as Kxem was trying to figure out what kind of weird reality they arrived at.
"Okay, so...", Duckle started to explain, "...this is the space-time continuum where S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island is located. The peculiarity of this Universe is that there is one infinite planet, and an infinite number of finite planets. Let me explain a bit better. Consider a 'normal' finite planet. You take off from the ground with a spaceship or a multiship, and eventually you can start seeing the islands and continents of that place. But, eventually, if you go high enough, you'll see that the planet has a spherical-like shape, and if you go even higher, it starts appearing smaller - since you're getting more distant from that planet - and then it will fade away from your vision. That's because that kind of planet has a finite shape, it doesn't go on forever. The infinite planet in this Universe, however, is different. It's infinite. That means, no matter how distant you get from that planet, you'll keep seeing its surface, or its clouds, depending on the weather, even if you are millions light years from that planet, you can still see it, and it will appear like an infinite wall, millions of light years away from you. You can go to different planets, even enter galaxies tens of millions light years away, and you'll still see that infinite planet in the distance, appearing like an infinite two-dimensional wall, when in reality that's just the surface of the planet. There is only one infinite planet in this galaxy, all the other planets are finite, and there is an infinite amount of finite planets in this Universe. S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island is located at a specific place in the infinite planet. I can show you where it is", explained Duckle.
"Of course!", said Kxem, "but... does this mean that infinite planet has infinite mass?", he wondered.
"The laws of physics in this reality are a bit different from what you're used to, but if we want to keep using terms like 'mass', you can say it has infinite mass, spread across an infinite volume, so the density is undetermined. The only way to calculate the density of this planet is to take into consideration only finite segments of it. You can't calculate the density of that entire planet, it would just make no sense", explained Duckle, while piloting the multiship and landing on S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island, "Kxem, can this multiship make any sound? Maybe a multiship horn you can honk with. And you also need to turn on the lights", he said.
"W-why?", asked Kxem, confused and also a little bit worried.
"This island is filled with shadow creatures, they can hear the silence and see the darkness. If you stay silent with the lights off, they will be able to detect you, and will attack this multiship, creating serious damage and maybe even killing you. By making lots of noise and turning on the lights, you will stay undetected. I know it might sound bizarre to you, but this is what S̖̀ò̖ẓ̍ó̗ć̗ Island is like. You all stay here, I will be back. Never stop making noises and never turn off the lights, okay? Please wait for me. I will be back", said Duckle.
"I'll come with you!", said Â̜, hugging Duckle and crying, "I've been missing you!", she said, crying on his shoulders.
"But I've been in Samantha's bedroom, and not for a long time! How can you miss me?", Duckle wondered, "You should stay here, Â̜! It's too dangerous out there!"
"I love you, Duckle! I feel happy when I stay with you, when I look at you, when I talk to you, when I think about you... my heart beats fast and I feel so good", she said, breathing heavily with excitement.
"Okay, okay... you can come with me. You are strong enough and can fight, after all. Just bring a flashlight with you, and please make a lot of noise and yell all the time, or the shadow creatures will come to kill you", Duckle warned. Â̜ was very happy that she could go with Duckle.
"I will also go with you", said Anna.
"No, Anna! It's too dangerous out there! I can't put you in such a risk!", said Duckle.
"I'm strong, I can fight", said Anna, proud, "even though I lost to you", she said, sweating embarrassed and feeling slightly humiliated, "but nevermind! I can't leave Â̜ alone! I assume all the responsibilities if something bad happens to me, I promise!", she said.
"Okay", said Duckle.
"I will also go with you", said hÒllÓween.
"But hÒllÓween...", Duckle was worrying that something bad would happen to all of them.
"Same thing as Anna. I'm strong, I can fight, and if something bad happens to me, it's my fault, okay?", he said.
"Okay...", said Duckle, worrying about hÒllÓween as well.
"Count me in too!", said Miyoko.
"B-but... can you even fight?", asked Duckle, wondering.
"Of course!", she said.
Duckle sighed, "...let's go, then"
Duckle, Â̜, Anna, hÒllÓween and Miyoko took a flashlight each, and exited the multiship, yelling, singing, and making lots of noise.
"LA-LA-LA-LA!!!", Â̜ was singing in a goofy humor, and everyone else was yelling and making lots of noise too, with their flashlights always on, so that they could avoid being detected by the shadow creatures.
"This place is really strange. The sky is light grey, almost white, but down here, everything is so dark and foggy", said Anna.

We should take it and bring it to Serjin, so that we'll be able to free the people of the place I grew up, from the curse of the shadow creatures that have long ago started infesting the land of Serjin", explained Duckle.
As they were walking closer to the center of the island, all of the five adventurers could feel a strange presence. It was not just a feeling, and they soon found out, a dark girl that looked like a demi-goddess appeared in front of them.
"You will never be able to take the stone you are looking for", she said, "I will destroy all of you before you can reach the center of the island", she threatened.
"Who are you?", asked Duckle, feeling irritated.
"I am the Shadow Queen, the one who will bring death to you. You life will end by my hands", she said.
"I don't think so! If you want to stop us, you have to defeat us first! Â̜, Anna, hÒllÓween, Miyoko! Are you ready to fight?", asked Duckle.
"YES!", they all yelled in unison, feeling determined to defeat the Shadow Queen and save the people of Serjin.
"It's not your ducky day, Shadow Queen. Anyone who has me as an enemy, has run out of duck!", said Duckle, smiling confidently and proudly, ready to fight, and ready to win.
