Yuletide 2 - Battle 1

[cascadingfailure]

[ Once you enter the Escape Room, a series of messages pops up on your phones: ]

TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wellll it looks like Naffy's out of commission? It'll take her awhile to reboot with how hard she just got hit by the autocensor!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Whatever you did, it really made her mad! Haha!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway since I know what's going on now, I'm happy to help! It looks like the nature of the threat is a gang war between an evil thought sealed and another that you all and your fans helped to return to the world of the not-so-living? Wild!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: In case you didn't get the memo, this means you're going to explore the combination WcDonald's and Damned Queen's Cookies!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There you'll find something you're looking for, probably…? But mostly you're looking for a way to contain the outbreaks!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: And fortunately, we've received a message from a friendly entity known only as "The Borger King", who apparently has a stake in the downfall of Lonard's lost empire…
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: It says:
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There is a war going on for your mind. Steal their secrets. Create the Ultimate Prankburger. The king awaits. Salvation will come.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wow! It looks like it's time for corporate espionage, or something?
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway, you get to keep everything you find, unless it's a dolphin! That's mine.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Better get going! Charge!!!!!

[ And then everything goes white... ]

Nng--

Was that it ... ? The note was about her, so --

[bondsofsuffering]

I'm guessing the boxes weren't bomb-proof.

[But he'll heal the burns to scars in the meantime.]

[heavenlyvisitor]

Mmmn.

We probably.

Weren't supposed to kill her.

[bondsofsuffering]

We were probably supposed to keep opening exploding gift boxes 'til we found her.

[heavenlyvisitor]

...

Then, it was her or us.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Once he sits back and has a chance to get back to texting...]

I mean, I guess. But it's possible we got the only dud or something...

Ugh, anyway, it looks like Hurricane and Nemesis are sending over an idol. She might be able to drown out the Damned Queen's singing when we finally face her.

[heavenlyvisitor]

[ sighs! nods!

this sucks! ]

[bondsofsuffering]

[Staring at his phone............]

...Looks like the other two aren't doing so good, either.

[heavenlyvisitor]

We should find a way to get to them. ...Or, get them to us. I doubt we'll be able to do anything to the Queen on our own.

[bondsofsuffering]

That's my concern, too...

In the meantime, since we went through the trouble of bombing the thing, we should probably check the freezer - right?

[heavenlyvisitor]

Mm, right. When you bomb treasure chests, the loot falls out, after all.

[bondsofsuffering]

Except it totally blew up too...

[Coughing up some flowers but - time to go.]
