Dang I'm a slow turtle. ._.

Here we go,

Previously:

Boom!!

All: Huh?

Cumulus: *growling*

Right now:

At the house,

Magnet: Sand! What happened?

Sand: I wanted to show Dark my new pet..!

Magnet: Um, what is your new pet?

Sand: A tarantula. *points at the wall*

A big hairy tarantula was on the wall

Magnet: San.... Dark is afraid of spiders... •-•

Sand: Oh... But last time, I remember pranking Dark with a spider.

Magnet: ... That was because.. he knew it was fake.

Sand: Oh...

Magnet: *sigh*

Emerald: Is something bothering you, Magnet?

Magnet: Yes, actually. It's about Cloud.

Emerald: And what is it with Cloud?

Magnet: Last night. While fighting with him... I didn't feel the same aura.. like usual..

Emerald: And...?

Magnet: And it was more... Different... He didn't use spears. He used his bare hands.

Emerald: Odd. Cloud uses spears when Cumulus is in control.

Magnet: That's the thing.... What if... It wasn't Cumulus?

Emerald: That would be new for you.

Magnet: Yeah... But... Which Alter...?

Outside, back in the backyard

Nimbus: *giggles* T-thank you again, f-for the gift. Karensa.

Karensa: No problem..! :3

Nimbus: *looks at his new teddy bear* Hm...

Cumulus: ...! *growling*

Karensa: Huh? *summons a knife* What is it?

Cumulus: ....A demon.

Raine: Demon-san? •w•

Atalanta: *kinda aware on what is gonna happen next...*

Nimbus: *looks scared.... But feels solemn*

Suddenly,

Boom!!

A ton of demons start charging at them

Karensa: Oh shin!! *turns into half tiger, starts beating shin!*

Cirrus: *summons his sword, starts slicing demons*

Strato: *summons his bow, starts shooting*

(It was cool.)

Cumulus: *fights with his hands*

Nimbus & Stratus: *with Raine and Atalanta*

But then,

???: Indest Barie!

Barriers surrounded Cumulus, Cirrus, Strato, and Karensa

Karensa: Hey!

???: Heh. Ang mga asong babae na ito? Mahina.

Atalanta, Karensa, Raine: Huh?

Karensa: Oi! Kinsa ka!?

(Okay.. this is not just Filipino... It's a mix of different dialects..)

???: Ako? Ako ay si Maoru! Malaking nekromancer as Goyel!

Karensa: owo

Atalanta: Anong ginagawa mo?

Maoru: Naramdaman ko ang isang makapangyarihang aura ng salamangka, sa mundo ito! Ako! Ay dapat na magic na!!

Karensa: Nu! *tries punching the wall, hand hurts* Ah.. Y###!!

._.

Maoru: Haharipan ko ka mamaya. Oras upang harapin ang mga mas mahina. *summons a big shuriken with a chain*

Stratus: *summons his whip* Please, no.

Maoru: Heheh. Paumanhin. Hindi paumanhin. Hyah!

He threw his shuriken and pulled it back with the chain, making a shockwave

(It's like with Ejen Ali's Yo-yo... I guess... I don't normally watch it. ._.)

Atalanta, Raine, Stratus, and Nimbus fell back

Cumulus: Hey!! *roars* Let us out! *punches the barrier, and for a while stopped because it wasn't effective*

Maoru, suddenly dashed towards Atalanta, and hit her in the chest

Nimbus: A-Atalanta!!

Atalanta: *bleeding slowly*

Maoru: *chuckling sinisterly*

Nimbus: *panting*

("Nimbus, you must.")

Nimbus: N-no.

Maoru: Isa pababa~ Oras para sa isa pa~ Mahiwagang suntok!

A punch blew at Stratus' chest, making fly towards the ground

Stratus: A-ah!!

Nimbus: Stratus!

("Nimbus!")

Nimbus: No! N-no!

A barrier surrounded Stratus

Stratus: Nimbus! Raine!

Maoru: Nimbus? Heh, Ikaw na. Mahiwagang mahusay na suntok!!

A punch was thrown... At Nimbus' face!

Nimbus: A-ah!! *touched his face*

Maoru: Ikaw na, Raine. Hah!

A flame punch was about to hit Raine-

Nimbus: No!!

But... It looked like... time stopped.

Nimbus: *shadow covers his eyes* Y-you may do w-what you must, Cumulo.

("As you wish, Nimbus.")

As time continued, the punch continued moving

But... It didn't hit Raine..

Raine and Mauro: Huh?

Someone, blocked it

Raine: Nim..?

Nimbus? He is not here.

Raine: Cumulo.

(Yeah..)

I am Cumulo! The Alter of Death!

(Cumulo is a soul within Nimbus.

Alterception!!

When Cumulo is in control, veins grow, his hair cover his left eye, his clothes, more particularly his sleeves, get torn up because of the drastic growth in size

Oh... And smoke comes out his mouth)

Cumulo: *growling* Maoru! Your presence is unfavorable!

Maoru: Unfavorable? Ikaw ay unfavorable! Hah!

A punch was thrown at Cumulo.... But nothing happened

Cumulo: *animalistic growling* I am no being to be messed with by a mortal.

Maoru: Eh- Ah! *getting chocked, being lifted up*

Cumulo: *growling, smoke is coming out of his mouth* I can feel your soul energy. Ironic! You are weaker than any of us!

Maoru: *still choking, then fainted*

Cumulo: *panting, looks at Atalanta*

Atalanta: Huh..?

Cumulo: *walks towards her, and bent down*

Atalanta: ...?

Cumulo: *leans towards her head and purrs* .... *a small little smile*

Atalanta: Oh.. hehe. *pets Cumulo's head* *smiles*

Cumulo: *looks at Raine, then Atalanta's wounds*

Raine: Oh. Okay. *heals Atalanta's wounds*

Atalanta: Thank you.

Raine: No problem! ^w^

Cumulo: *feels comfortable... then felt tense*

Suddenly..

And...

Hundreds of Monsters were summoned

Raine: Oh! *summons a scythe*

Cumulo: *growling, roars loudly*

Cirrus' and Stratus' barriers shattered

Strato: Oh! Cirrus! Stratus! Help them!!

Cirrus: Okay!

Stratus: *summons whip*

Cumulo and Raine were... killing everything..

Karensa: Aww... I wanted to kill monsters too.

Slowly, Cumulo's eyes turned blood red, veins continue to appear, and his heartbeat was getting tenser

And...

A few moments later...

Cumulo: *panting, blood on hair* *looks around*

Maoru was gone

Cumulo: ...... *growling* Aaahh!! *stomps the ground, making some of the ground break* Where are you!?

Karensa: •^• .... Nevermind, I'm good here...

Cumulo: Where are you, mortal!?!

Raine: Cumulo, calm down.

Cumulo: *groaned, roars and hits the ground*

Then.... He accidentally hit Raine.. in the chest..

Cumulo: ...! *froze..*

The others: !!!/ ...!!

Stratus: *helps Raine up*

Raine: *slowly heals herself*

Cumulo: ....

He.... Was holding tears..?

Cumulo: Do not cry, you airhead! No no no no.

Raine: *gasp* Don't cry, Ni- wait.... You're crying, Cumulo!

Cumulo: No I am not! *sniff*

Raine: You are. But it's okay. *pets Cumulo*

Cumulo: *grumbling*

Raine: I'm okay, look.

Cumulo: *growls* No! I-

Raine: Nu, I am. Just calm down. *gives Cumulo a little hug*

Cumulo: ..... *slowly calming down* Okay.

Raine: Hehe.

Cumulo: ......

Stratus: Cumulo? Can you help please?

Cumulo: .....Fine. *snaps his fingers*

The barriers vanished

Karensa: Oof. *fell*

Cumulo: *sat down, arms crossed*

Raine: *rubs Cumulo's head* Calm down, Cumulo.

Atalanta: Yeah. No need to be mad.

Cumulo: Okay... *tries to relax* Mm.... *leans over*

("I-it is time t-to rest, Cumulo.")

Cumulo: As you wish, Nimbus.

His hair turned back to grey, his eyes turned back to light grey..

Nimbus is back

Karensa: Cinnamon roll...! *hugs Nimbus*

Nimbus: H-hi again. *smiles, purrs*

Karensa: *about to faint again*

Nimbus: Hehe.

Cumulus: *arms crossed*

Strato: *pats Cumulus' back*

Cumulus: *sat down, leans over*

Strato: *chuckles and pats Cumulus' head*

Atalanta: Oh, wait. Where are the other 15?

Strato: Oh, they wanted to have time in the mansion to do some designs, for the haunted mansion.

(Note: This was way before the Mansion incident.)

Atalanta: Oh.

Raine & Karensa: Oh yeah.

Nimbus: Heheh.

(End!?)

--------

Yee!

Umm, now...

That..!

Is Cumulo..!

(Couldn't believe Raine is even friends with a monstrous beast. ._.)

Now compare it to Nimbus. ._.

Yeah. ._.

(Still bad at drawing...)

.....

They are very different...

Atalanta is Eau_de_Glace

Raine is Rai_Chan07Anime

And Karensa is ImLonely11307

But wait...

There is one more part!

I forgot..

There's one more...

Welp...

See y'all!
