Out of Time, Part 3

Youric, Phil, and Bofa are each transformed into giant, hulking versions of their former selves.  Youric becomes 40 feet tall, while the Deez Nutz brothers experience rapid muscle growth.  The party decides that, for this upcoming final battle, Youric should take point and the bears should cover the rear.  Several crude jokes about “Deez Nutz” and “in the rear” ensue.

As the party enters the final chamber, they find Windsor lurking.  Even confronted in his private chamber, he is confident.  “Why do you think I created the flux capacitor?” he taunts.  “So that I could summon my god, my hero, my idol.  The original Nyridius.  My first attempts were unsuccessful, so I created clones of him and his fellow travelers.  They are now my elite guard.”  The team is confronted by none other than the adventurers from Season One, including Professor Cuddlepunch, Khali, Vagabot, Defendomax, Duke, and the original Nyridius.  Our team meets their equal:  another group of ridiculously overpowered travelers!

Youric rushes forward to engage Windsor.  Each has become immeasurably powerful, and their savage blows shake the walls and echo across the chamber.  Bofa and Phil use the bottleneck of the rear entrances to block a rush horde of flame cultists.  By doing so, the bears keep the party free to focus on the Season One clones.

The Season One clones utilize the strongest attacks in their repertoire, including Duke’s acid spit, Vagabot’s swarm attack, Khali’s Kaiser blade, and Cuddlepunch’s dumbbell.  The team takes some hits, but quickly decide to focus down each enemy rather than conquer and divide.  In this, the final battle, the team feels free to utilize all the omega tech they’ve been storing.  Defendomax and Cuddlepunch quickly fall in battle.  Little Rock uses his newest ability, Echo Slam, to deal massive area of effect damage to a group of enemies.  Fitzgerald and Tao Ren make short work of the others.

In the background, Youric appears to be losing the battle.  Windsor’s powerful attacks leave him crippled and fading fast.  After casting a glance at his son, Fitzgerald, Youric attacks Windsor with a kamikaze strike, ending his own life but debilitating Windsor. 

The party takes the opportunity to engage Windsor.  Although Windsor has the ability to deal massive area damage, the team throws everything they’ve got at him.  Literally.  They empty their pockets of all junk they’ve collected throughout their travels, fashioning it into whatever projectile or cudgel they can manage.  Hand Banana, Tao Ren, and Drizzle are nearly leveled by Windsor’s crippling blows.  Nyridius, too, is nearly torn apart by Windsor’s inferno fist.  But the team struggles on in a prolonged slugfest.  Round after round, the party chips away at Windsor, evading and surviving his vicious attacks.
