You're Probally wondering if I found Link's token. Well then, allow me to sum up the previous week.
I found the Howling Stones in a tree near some mountains. So if I ever need assistance in combat I could summon Link to help fight.
Anyway the rest of week was rather strange.
For starters let me tell you what happened the next day.
...in a 3rd person style
"Rainbow Dash, I simply don't understand why you can't just play the guitar you have." Rarity asked only to see a worn and broken guitar.
Rarity gasps as she said "Now I understand."
Suddenly a familiar voice said "Oh Heya, didn't expect to see you girls here." as they turned to see Sans walking towards them.
"I could say the same thing." Rainbow said back
"So what are you doing here?" Rarity asked.
"Oh just looking for a guitar" He said picking up a black one with silver strings. "Nah." and he continued looking.
Pinkie Pie held a purple guitar "How about this one?"
"No." Rainbow said in response.
Pinkie Pie held a banjo "Lookie here!"
"No."
Pinkie had a tuba "Super groovy!"
Rainbow Dash stopped her "No, Pinkie."
"Well, whatcha looking for?" Applejack asked.
"That's the problem! I need something that looks as awesome as I'm gonna make it sound." Rainbow said as she kept looking.
She found a double necked guitar with lighting bolts on it. She grabbed one neck as another hand of a white haired girl dressed as a wizard or magician.
"Hands off my guitar, Trixie!" Rainbow shouted at the wizard girl.
"I touched it first, Rainbow Dash!" The girl now known as Trixie shouted back.
"Sounds to me like this is a makin' for a nice, friendly competition." Applejack said.
Sans continued to search as he barely paid any mind to the girls.
Rainbow shouted "All right! Let's see who plays best!"
Trixie narrowed her eyes "A shred-off?"
Rainbow Dash was determined to win as she narrowed her eyes as well "Shred on."
The two girls fight to outperform each other with their solo guitar riffs. As Trixie begins to gain the upper hand, Rainbow Dash's entire body levitates into the air and surges with an electrical aura, transforming her and changing her guitar's appearance. Rainbow Dash hits the ground and creates a rainbow colored sonic boom like shockwave that blows Trixie literally away.
Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity were all cheering at Rainbow's victory.
"Wait where's Sans" Rarity asked, concerned that he'll bombard them with questions after he might have seen or saw that Rainbow was transformed.
Speaking of said friend, Sans had recently found a simple black guitar and if you asked Vinyl she tell you he said "Perfect. Now to go and make the guitar of my dreams." and that he bought it and left without even noticing the obviousness of Rainbow's transformation, much less the shred-off in general.
Rainbow Dash victoriously shouted "Check me out!"
Vinyl presented Rainbow the double necked guitar. Rainbow stopped and looked down at the transformed guitar in her hands "Uh, she can have it. Turns out this is the one that really speaks to me."
Trixie snatched the guitar and shouted victoriously "The Great and Powerful Trixie always wins in the end!" She then began laughing manically.
Rainbow cut her off with a smartass "I doubt it."
Trixie, confused, checked the price tag and was shocked by the easily affordable price of "Twelve-thousand dollars?! You'll pay for this, Rainbow Dash!" She shouted to the rainbow haired guitarist.
Pinkie went back and joked "No, silly! If you want it, you have to pay for it."
That was one the events that happened behind my back.
The other 4 I heard from them later on we're something about Fluttershy playing the tambourine to calm down some hamsters before they shred themselves to pieces, Pinkie playing the drum as an outlet for her 24/7 sugar rush, Rarity playing the keytar to be much more convenient than her large classic piano, and Applejack getting her bass back from the pawn shop after it was accidently sold in a garage sale.
One thing that linked all 5 of these events was that they would grow pony ears in the matching skin tone and their hair would grow to the ground, tied near the waist like a tail when they played their instrument of choice. The only difference was that Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash would grow blue and yellow feathered wings respectively.
How I didn't notice is the real mystery since in the meantime I was upgrading a black guitar with white stripes to be more comfortable for me to use it. It didn't have much physical change but it was much lighter than the average guitar and made of iron too. Don't ask me how I did it, I'm not sure myself.
Anyway it's been an odd week, but hey I got the Howling Stone. So that's at least an bonus.
But enough of the side stuff. However later on I learned something I didn't know I could do and it explained a few things.
"Wonder what Link's been up to? I wonder how the Wide Angle is working out for him." I said thinking in the fields in some park as I rested, school let out only a few hours ago.
I was wondering how the girls were doing, I heard they made a band called "The Rainbooms" as I've been told. Weird name, I'd be willing to bet Rainbow named them and was lead singer just because it was her idea.
My thoughts drifted back to the duel with Link. I understand he was confused at the time and didn't know who I was, plus me summoning the Add-Ons didn't help. But how did I turn into the Bad Batter? After all that form was only a change in perspective, not a transformation. I figure it was a transformation for me in this world, but do I have other forms? I decided to try and start simple with the Bad Batter.
I focused on the monstrous incarnation as I felt my arms and hands expand, yet grow no muscle and my head turn into the alligator head of the beast within. I was the Bad Batter once more.
I also felt a boost in my stats, out of curiosity I tried to summon the Add-Ons. But they didn't summon, not even after 10 tries.
So no Add-Ons was a drawback, and thanks to my battle with Link, I knew that if I had them out anyway, they would melt faster than an ugly witch getting wet and melting.
I turned back on my own as I focused on transforming back to me. Honestly the last thing I need is being dissected for all the world to see in Area 51.
I need is being dissected for all the world to see in Area 51.
As I then thought of other forms The Batter had in any OFF fangames, two came to mind, The Executioner from "HOME" and The Ghost Batter from various fangames like "CONTINUE STOP RISE" & "UNKNOWN".
I decided to try Ghost Batter first. I focused on the supernatural form and felt myself faint. When I came too a few seconds later I got up and felt taller looked down to see... me. I was dead on the ground as I checked my shoulders down to my hand only to see the disembodied arms and hand floating next to me as I saw the familiar hands. I noticed I lacked legs, instead I have a tail in it's place. I noticed my Ashley Bat on the ground and attempted to pick it up to test something. I picked it up and found I couldn't use it. This was to be expected of course.
Soon I learned the capabilities of this form, which I'll talk about later, but next I wanted to try The Executioner form. I felt a grim reaper styled robe fade onto my body as my bat extended and grew a blade, making it a scythe of reaper doom to all my adversaries.
However, these I soon learned and figured these forms held advantages & drawbacks and some I haven't tested in theory.
The Bad Form was larger and therefore a larger target to attacks. It at least boosts my Strength, Defense, Speed, and Competence at the cost of his HP being halved doesn't help him due to his size. My Esprit however stay the same. It replaces my bat with claws with similar effects and stats to my Ashley Bat. I can even use the large alligator head to bite. Most of my competences change, elemental competences turn into draining attacks and I can only heal himself when I uses a healing competence as he drains them from his foes with no way of choosing anyone else. My stronger attacks can also can cause status effects.
The Ghost Batter form was most likely weak to any anti ghost weapons and fighters like myself. Making foes like the Ghostbusters, Danny Phantom, and Pac-Man my worst choice of using this form against. I could at least phase through walls if I wanted to and possibly attacks aimed at me, I also could turn invisible, and fly. It also boosts only my Speed, Competence, Health, and Defense. My Strength and Esprit stay the same. Despite not being able to use my bat, I can somehow still use Homerun Competences and my attacks felt like using the Ashley Bat. I believe when fighting with allies he can heal every ally at once using his competences, but the amount of heath that recovers is reduced. Elemental Competences are replaced by attacks that can hit all enemies at once, kinda like Epsilon's Competences. This form is also a positive buffer an can increase certain attacks.
The Executioner Form has no resistance or weaknesses to any element. I felt my Attack, Defense, Speed, and Esprit boost. My Competence and Health stayed the same. My bat extends and turns into a reaper scythe of similar strength and attributes to the Ashley Bat in attacking twice and using the elements metal and meat like all my forms. I have all my basic competences still unlike the other forms which transform them into more fitting competences.
The transformations all share a few aspects. Like how I can't use my Add-Ons, I get boosted in certain stats, All forms also have 3 bonus competences.
Bad Batter:
-Steal Final Base: Steals 1/2 of the enemy max HP (25% of Max CP)
-Nightmarish Run: Special attack inflicting Fear and Insomnia (40 of Max CP)
-Horrific Homerun: Special Attack of insane impact (50% of Max CP)
Ghost Batter:
-Incredible Pitch: Increases All Allies Stats (25% of Max CP)
-Ghost Smash: Physical attack of multiple cataclysmic impacts (25% of Max CP)
-Ghastly Homerun: Special attack of mysterious impact (50% of Max CP)
The Executioner:
-Save Last Base: Reanimates an ally with max HP (25% of Max CP)
-Run with Terror: Special attack of the element fear (50 CP)
-Omega Homerun: Special attack of chaotic impact (50% of Max CP)
Now then after I should head back to my van and get some rest. It's been a long day after all and I'm feeling a little sleepy from all that transforming. I assume that is also a con if I transform often, I'd be left exhausted.
I left the park and got back in my van, still tired from my transformation steak in one day. I fell on my bed as I was dead asleep in 10 seconds flat. I was asleep, unaware of the yellow eyes and the voice "So he has yet to find purify a single soul, I wonder if he is the same person who killed my home. ...Nah, he has to be the same one, perhaps it's a façade, he will show his true colors someday. I should kill him now though, but he has yet to commit a sin in this world and I still doubt he is the same purifier or just somebody who resembles the demented sportsman. I suppose I could keep my eyes on him just a while longer. But still, I have to wonder...
...has he seen my dear brother?"
