YM778.TV Chapter 146 - 146. Tripping
Jackson was the only one that had realized the peril they were all in. But for him, it was too late as well. His mouth had become dry and his vision blurred. He tried his best to speak and walk toward Laura who was the only one far enough away to be unaffected, but with his blurred vision, he was traveling in circles.
"Hee heee heeeeee, everyone looks like they are cats. Asher you\'re soo fluffy he heee." Jane was losing herself to a world where everyone was a fluffy cat. The hallucinations making her try and catch them all. Unfortunately, she would never catch any of these cats since she was actually sitting still on the ground saying these things.
Louis was by far the strangest out of the group. His actions looked normal but upon close inspection, he was actually grabbing little twigs and leaves from the ground and frying them with his electricity. "I am a bug zapper. The almighty bug zapper. I will zap zap you and I will zap zap you."
Not a single person could have explained this, the only answer was that the earlier teasing about being a human stun gun had devolved in to a full on insanity. The hallucinations he had heard whispering with him told him he had received the lightning body for the reason of insect extermination and that he would be saving the world to do so. The only benefit of this insanity was that he was training his powers as he had never done before.
While Louis was zapping things here and there Sammy was trying her best to stand up, but her balance had failed her. For every time she attempted to stand she would find herself on the opposite side or somehow becoming upsidedown. Her world had been flipped and everything she saw was at stranger and stranger angles.
"Watermelon perry magic festival." Art was shaking his head at her trying to do so while he checked the food. He saw that everyone was being strange but to him, the only thing he could focus on was telling the,m that they were acting weird and focus on the food. His campfire cookies were going to be amazing and no one would stop him from finishing them.
"The world is on fire! How can you all sit like that and be fine? It\'s so hot we are swimming in a volcano." Asher had fallen in to a figment of his own torture and was running around like a mad man trying to find somewhere cooler. These actions were burning him down to nothing in his mind, but in reality, was extremely beneficial cardio training.
"Ha! Finally got ht e first one open!" Laura had finally undone the first puzzle and pulled out the paper from inside. She unfolded it and found it to say something amazing. "Forty points! I got forty points!" Laura jumped in excitement. The puzzles Asher had told her to take were indeed a great investment.
Laura wanted to hear everyone go crazy over the points she had gotten ut when she looked at all of them she was stunned. She had been so focused on what she was doing that she hadn\'t noticed what was going on at all. Now she was hit with the strange ramblings and off things everyone was doing. "What in the world is wrong with you all?"
Laura tried to poke Jackson and ask him, but the only response she could get from him was his mouth opening and closing like a fish. His tongue had become so dry that he couldn\'t even speak a word. "Jumping kangaroo sandwich monkey!" Art shouted at Laura which didn\'t help anything at all. The only person she saw that was making any form of sense was Sammy who couldn\'t stand up for the life of her.
"Sammy, what is going on?" Laura tried to help her up but found the girl was struggling to stay balanced at all.
"Jackson yelled something about mushrooms and the fire. But I can\'t stand and everything is sideways and I don\'t know what to do." Sammy was starting to tear up due to the stress of being unable to stand straight.
Laura just held Sammy up looking around and starting to connect the dots. There were some mushrooms that had been left out with the dried branches used for the fire. She decided that the best way to solve this problem was to place Sammy against a tree and rush off dor a staff member.
Laura rushed at her top speed trying to find someone but realized that they had moved to a fairly abandoned part of the camp to try and make their campfire cookies. It was a small flaw in their plans to have some privacy.
She needed to jump over some of the larger tree roots and maneuver around the rocks. With her worry for everyone back at their little camp, she moved faster and faster not even stopping to think about how she was moving. She did not stumble in the least, nor did she catch herself on any branches. Her movements were perfect.
When she saw the familiar shape of Garnet she knew she had found the right person. "Garnet! They are all dying from mushroooms!" Laura had become much more panicked as she ran and was starting to wildly exaggerate now. Her panic reached Garnet\'s ears and got her full attention.
"There were branches and the fire and then they were burning them for the cookies and I was doing puzzles and then I was finishing the puzzle but the burned the mushrooms and then they are acting finny but now I am here and Sammy told me Jackson knew them and and and."
"CALM DOWN!" Garnet got right in her face and snapped Laura out from her panic. She had never expected this girl to lose herself so much over anything, let alone something that sounded so foolish. "Now take me there and I will see what is happening." Garnet braced herself for the worst but had a good idea of what had happened and what she would walk in to.
