Here's a brand new story starring two of my favourite boy bands McFly and Busted as their super group McBusted and my original character Dominic who were sent into New Wirral from the monster catching RPG game Cassette Beasts. I've played Cassette Beasts last year and it's a good Pokémon clone with its own identity so I thought I'll come up with a short story with again The McBusted boys and Dominic venturing in the world of Cassette Beasts, using monsters that I've nicknamed them after in the game (with the exception of Dominic).
Here's Chapter 4 where James Bourne and Dougie Poynter fights against Kingrave and Queenyx and their reinforcements which goes awry. Enjoy and stay tuned for more.
Chapter 4 – Snakes N Chess
James Bourne and Dougie Poynter have arrived at The Marshes, where a rogue fusion activity has been reported (with reports includes monsters attacking rangers when they get stuck in the marsh which makes it a dangerous place too explore). As expected, The Marshes had a lot of muddy paths, which made it easy to get stuck. “Now we’re stuck in the mud”, said James as he struggled to get out while maintaining some good humour. “As icky and sticky as the cream egg goo that covered us during one of our promotions. Bet you Busted Lads would need a daring promotion like that”, said Dougie jokingly. James was rather perplexed by Dougie’s kind of joke. He admits that he often says things without even thinking, which sometimes gets under his skin.
They then spotted two large monsters with one resembling a king chest piece known as a Kingrave and the other having the appearance of a queen chest piece, hence its name Queennyx. They summoned smaller chest-piece-like monsters, which include Pawndead and Skelevangelist (resembling bishops). They made their way towards James and Dougie while they were trapped in the mud.
“So they fancy a game of chess?” said James just after they made their way out. “I say, bring it on!” said Dougie as they transformed into Mardiusa and Jormungold. As Mardiusa, James uses its mesmerising abilities to handicap his opponents, including Hypnosis to make them dozy or Stony Look to petrify them for a short while. “Now this is like an actual Medusa!” said James with fascination.
Dougie makes use of his erratic creativity when fighting as Jormungold, including by quickly striking his foes like a snake catching its prey using Pre-emptive Strike or countering his foes whenever they attack using Revenge Strike which makes him an unpredictable fighter. “And now, watch this peculiar specimen constricts its prey, holding its last breath” said Dougie as he uses the Jormungold’s body to wrap up a Pawndead’s body, as hypnotised by James earlier. “Now now, this isn’t the time to be David Attenbourgh” said James, watching this. Although he meant well, Dougie couldn’t help but to get annoyed with James’ smartass sass.
However, The Skelevangelists attacked Dougie by firing their bone projectiles using Bone Cannon, which forced him to let go of the Pawndeads, who snapped out of their hypnosis. “Hey, they bite!” cried Dougie as he was getting hit. James helped him out by firing Mardiusa’s Pustule Bomb from a distance, only for some Pawndeads to push him from behind, causing James to fall into the mud, getting himself stuck. “Now that was rude!” cried James.
“Gotta teach them some manners!” said Dougie as he went over towards James, slithering as Jormungold, but he ended up getting caught in the mud trap too. “Stupid mud!” ranted Dougie. “Oh boy, it looks like we have fallen into their trap”, analysed James as The Pawndeads and Skelevangelists made their way towards them both. “I aren’t going to be checked!” said Dougie defiantly, firing the Jormungold’s Energy Waves towards the chess piece like monsters. “Good thinking there. We’ll be the ones checking them!” said James as he does the same by firing Mardiusa’s Energy Shots. Dougie then had an idea. “Hey, why don’t we use our attacks to get ourselves out of the mud?” “Now that’s good thinking of you men” said James as he fired Mardiusa’s Energy Shot.
Suddenly, a purple slime monster known as a Jellyton appeared and was about to smack James with its Toxic Stab, but Dougie spotted it and got in the way, with Jormungold taking the attack. “Ugh, I don’t feel so good” moaned Dougie as Jormungold became poisoned, causing Dougie to take the Poison effect too. “It’s a good thing that Lanthe has given us stuff for times like this”, said James, who de-transformed from Mardiusa for a moment to reach for his bag to get a Poison Cure. Just when he was about to get it out, the Jellyton whacked him, causing the bag to fly further away from them.
“Oh great, just what I needed!” cried James, who is getting worried about Dougie, who is not only poisoned but is still stuck in the mud. “I would have thought that poisoned monsters can’t be poisoned”, ranted Dougie. This gives James no choice but to get the bag while Dougie is stuck. “Hang in there, Dougie”, said James as he turned back to Mardiusa and made his way towards the bag. “Ugh, please hurry”, said Dougie weakly.
If things couldn’t get bad enough, more Pawndeads and Skelevangelists have appeared, getting in James’ way. “Out of the way! I got a bandmate to save!” cried James as he frantically battered them with Mardiusa’s Bish Bash Bosh to push them out of the way. He also spotted Jellytons attacking Dougie, who was getting weaker from the poison as he tried to fight them. “Stay away, you Jelly Freaks! Nobody picks on him but me!” yelled James and used Mardiusa’s Stony Look to petrify them. “Thanks, always the one with good ideas”, said Dougie, praising him despite himself while admiring James sticking up for him.
It was good to see Dougie in good spirits, but he knew that he mustn’t waste any more time, as he quickly made his way towards the bag while it was clear. He picked it up and made his way back, only for him to get confronted by more Pawndeads and Skelevangelists, causing him to get stuck in the mud. “Come on! I don’t have time for this!” yelled James in frustration. With his worry for Dougie, he desperately fired Mardiusa’s Zephyr at the chest piece monsters, but kept on missing.
He saw Dougie struggling against the Jellytons and realised that he needed to be composed or else he wouldn’t be able to help him. So he came up with an idea; he uses Mardiusa’s Hypnotise to make the chest piece monsters dozy, got out the Poison Cure and tossed it towards Dougie with precise aim as if he is throwing a baseball with James calling out to him, “Here Dougie, catch!” Dougie caught it and didn’t hesitate to use the Poison Cure, healing his poison. “Thanks, now to fight with vengeance!” said Dougie and took out the Jellytons with Jormungold’s Energy Wave. James was relieved that Dougie was cured. He then made his way out of the mud using Mardiusa’s Energy Shot and finished off the Pawndeads and Skelevangelists with Mardiusa’s Snow Rush.
Use this for the fight against the rogue fusion
The Kingrave and Queenyx then fused themselves into a humanoid chest piece monster Kingnyx, making them the rogue fusion. “Never thought I would see a fused chest piece”, said Dougie in awe. “We gotta checkmate it!” said James. The Kingnyx was a strategic fighter, firing attacks that strike multiple times, including Rapid Fire and Bone Cannon. James protected Dougie using Poison Wall, but he couldn’t summon the barrier in time, taking hits from the attacks.
“Ow! As if one move wasn’t enough!” cried James. The Kingnyx can also use Déjà Vu to cause their attacks to strike multiple times, including Icicle Dart and Bish Bosh Bash, as said by Dougie “Now that’s Déjà Vu” as they fought back, firing their Pustule Bomb. “But not for long!” said James, who used Mardiusa’s Stony Look to petrify Kingnyx. However, it turned out that Kingnyx has the ability to heal itself while petrified using Fossil, much to their disbelief.
“Oh come on, that’s cheating men!” yelled Dougie and he was about to strike the Kingnyx using Jormungold’s Toxic Stab but the Kingnyx became freed from their petrify and was about to slam into him using their Last Rites but James got in the way and took the attack himself, causing him to fell into the mud.
“Looks like they checked me”, said James as Kingnyx fired their Bone Cannon at him while he was down. Dougie was terrified, but he knew that he must help James to get out of this as his way to return the favour to him. He looked at the bone projectiles and had an idea. “Hey tyrant, eat this!” said Dougie, who blew away the bone projectiles using Jormungold’s Zephyr. Just as Dougie went towards James to help him to get back up, Kingnyx was about to attack him with their Bish Bosh Bash. But Dougie was prepared for that as he bravely fought against their melee attack by jabbing them with Jormungold’s tail using Toxic Stab. He is able to hold his own until the Kingnyx pounded him down towards the mud right next to James.
“I’m sorry that was sloppy of me”, said Dougie. “No, no, that was brave and impressive of you”, said James, who admired his courage. The Kingnyx fired their Bone Cannon at them, but they fought off the attacks by intercepting the bone projectiles. “James, we gotta get out of this!” said Dougie. “The only way is to get out of this ourselves, no matter how tough it is, and I’m not just talking about the mud here” said James. Dougie smiled as he agreed with James’ words, finding that he is good with words with good intentions. “You said it, and just like Danny said for his Muddy Water song”, said Dougie. James smiled with Dougie’s good-natured humour that brightens things up, agreeing with that.
Use this for when they fused even though it didn't came from Cassette Beasts
With James and Dougie’s determination and having a better understanding of their mannerisms, their hearts became combined as one and their monsters became fused into Mardigold, resembling a Mardiusa with Jormungold’s armour. “Now we get to share one body!” said Dougie as his way of reacting to their fusion as they fired Mardigold’s Energy Wave directly at the mud, which helped them to escape. “Guess it’ll get comfortable”, said James, playing along. They were able to combine their unpredictable creativity including with their ability Two Heads, which allowed them to attack consecutively for a while, hitting Kingnyx hard with their Toxic Stab and Toy Hammer. “Oh yeah! Try stopping us now!” boasted Dougie. The Kingnyx tried to fight back with Last Rites, but Mardigold dodged the attack, activating their Jagged Edge ability, which dealt damage to Kingnyx. “Now that's what I call a near miss”, said James. Dougie agreed with that.
The Kingnyx managed to hit them with their Bish Bosh Bash, but Mardigold hits them back with its Revenge Strike. “Revenge may not be sweet, but this is”, said Dougie. “As sweat as sweats”, said James as Maridgold their Zephyr at Kingnyx. They both find that their wisecrack goes well together. Being at a pinch, the Kingnyx powered itself up using Gambit, which made it hit faster and harder while handling its moves, making things tougher for them. “They seem desperate to execute us”, said Dougie. “Time to dethrone them with our trickery I say!” said James with determination. Dougie agreed with that, and they created a Poison Wall, which handled some of their hits while they worked on firing Mardigold’s Energy Shot at Kingnyx from a distance.
The Poison Wall was then broken down by Kingnyx, beating it down with their Bish Bosh Bash and made their way towards Mardigold. “Just try and stop us, your highness!” taunted Dougie as they used Mardigold’s Two Head ability to use its Toxic Stab multiple times to fight against Kingnyx’s fists. This gives them an opening to roll a 20-sided die, which rolled a 20, dealing heavy damage, which also randomly made Kingnyx slower while making Mardigold faster. “Now that suits our style!” boasted James as they were able to dodge Kingnyx’s attacks. “My thoughts exactly!” said Dougie, and they finished off Kingnyx with a powerful punch using Poison Fist, causing the rogue fusion to defuse. “Checkmate” said James, and they defused from Mardigold.
Afterwards, Morgante appeared in their vision. “Woah, aren’t you bewitching!” said James upon seeing the archangel. “Are you our Party Girl?” asked Dougie. “You mortals have a peculiar sense of humour” replied Morgante, who sounds somewhat flustered, but she explained to them the way home and the song that they have to learn.
After that, James said to Dougie, “Well, that was unexpected, but hey, at least we have found the key back to our world, and we made it in one piece”, said James. “Not like those chess pieces”, said Dougie, and they both laughed. They find that even if they find their sense of humour clashes at times, they both know that they’re there for each other, as this adventure shows.
