9ce148 *the camera cuts over to a wide shot of Scott walking down a path, and the words "Elsewhere ..." appear briefly on screen*

35dc76 *The beast realized this isn't Exodius and can copy it's moves, so it left for the time being.*,

9ce148 *the creature disappearing into the trees does not stop it from constantly hearing that ominous clock ticking. if the creature is still here but just trying to hide, the clone would still inately know where it is, and its gaze snaps in a direction to look at it. however if the creature has left the area entirely, the clones eyes would flicker back to black, and it would melt away like it was just dipped in acid*

35dc76 *Now aware that the attack is coming, the beast jumps into the air and vanishes into the trees* (multitasking rn so please excuse any delay or slip ups)

9ce148 *the cloud overcast finally stops, and the bright moon finally comes out. and its bright enough to illuminate the clearing*

9ce148 *the crucified black humanoid is now closer to the ground, and floating behind the clone. either the clone doesn't know its there, or it does and they're in cahoots with eachother*

9ce148 *the clone hasn't assimilated any other attacks, so it just does the fire-spike one again. three more rings appear around the creature, and the spikes come out same as before. this time two go for its legs, and the third goes for its other undamaged arm*

35dc76 *The beast very quickly uses it's tentacles on it's back to slice two in half and knock the cut ends to the side, but the one aiming for the arm hits and cleanly cuts through, the beast shouts and then cuts that spike too and ripping it out, leaving a large hole in its right arm.*

9ce148 *these spikes are not black spikes, they are bloodstained bone spikes with shattered sharp ends*

9ce148 *suddenly, a few fiery circles appear around the creature in the shadows. these circles are more golden fire than reddish-orange fire. after a second, spikes shoot out from the circles: one aiming for its head, and the other two for its body, and an arm. the clone appears to have assimilated that attack upon being hit by it*

35dc76 *It stares back, completely still.*

9ce148 *still shaking fairly violently, it analyzes the spike for .. roughly 15 to 20 seconds, and then it snaps its gaze directly towards wherever this creature is hiding*

9ce148 *as the clone removes the spikes from itself, the wounds quickly regenerate. although curiously, it holds onto one of the spikes that it broke off*

35dc76 *The beast watches from the shadows*

9ce148 *it then starts violently shaking and twitching. the clone grabs the spikes and then physically breaks them off, totally ignoring the fire*

1c34e6 nevermind O_O

1c34e6 fix

9ce148 *as the clone gets skewered from three different angles, it seems to "activate", as its eyesockets glow bright gold and cast golden light rays, similar to spotlights. just like how Exodius did that one time*

35dc76 *Each of them aiming directly for the flesh clones torso*

1c34e6

35dc76 *A few small circles of fire flair up next to the Exodius clone, and suddenly, after a second, black spikes appear out of the ground from the spots of fire, the spikes themselves being engulfed in fire.*

9ce148 *this flesh clone is definitely less intelligent than the actual Exodius, because not long after being placed down, it starts wandering around seemingly randomly. but it manages to stay in that clearing area*

35dc76 *Puffs of fire appear from the beasts face is it runs, despite the current lack of a mouth or nose. It soon reaches where Exodius was before and stops, hidden in the trees. it sees the clone and just stares for a few seconds while moving through the shadows*

9ce148 *Exodius then dissolves away, and a flesh replicant (non-shadow clone) of him is placed on the ground facing toward one of the rocks*

9ce148 " . . . " "(*𝗛𝗮𝗵𝗮, 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹, 𝗜'𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻.)"

9ce148 *Exodius slowly spins around and faces towards the direction the hostile presence is approaching him from* "(*𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻'𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴.)" *he turns to the floating black crucified humanoid,* "(*𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲, 𝗩?)" *the humanoid still does not respond, or even move*

35dc76 *It slows down slightly at the sound of the clock, but quickly speeds back up, and it's already covered over half the distance*

9ce148 *the creature hunting Exodius suddenly hears an ominous clock ticking sound coming from everywhere at once. simultaneously elsewhere, Scott 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘱𝘴 hearing the ticking* "(*oh my god, finally)"

1c34e6 damn.

35dc76 *It sits there on it's knees, hands to the ground. then it's head suddenly snaps to it's left* "*i fooound youuu...!" *It mutters to itself, it's voice sounding distorted yet calm, it then quickly stands up and starts running directly to where Exodius is, a long distance, but he will get there eventually.*

1c34e6

1c34e6 y'all mind if the sansest joins

35dc76 *After a short bit of just standing there, the beast crouches to the ground and starts focusing.*

9ce148 "(*𝗜 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻. 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱.)" *the humanoid says nothing, it doesn't even move*

9ce148 *in front of Exodius floating higher than him is a black humanoid figure with long arms, long legs, long claws, and its head hanging like its dead. its body is posed in such a way that it looks like it was crucified*

35dc76 *After a while, the beast stops running and just stands in the middle of the forest*

9ce148 (*frankly annoyed by the fact his game was interrupted, Exodius is in another forest clearing (one that doesn't have a cabin, but the ground does have a few embedded boulders sticking out of it) brooding about various things like an edgelord*

35dc76 *Meanwhile, elsewhere far in the forest, the beast is running, weaving inbetween trees and looking for any sign of Exodius.*

9ce148 *during this journey (however long it takes), Scott does have a couple run-ins with the blind ashen creature, as well as the white eyeless staring one, but he does respond accordingly and avoids getting harmed by either*
