The Isekai Game: Future Diary

Chapter 10 - Episode Oz: 3

There it was, at the end of the yellow brick road and across a large grassy plain, a giant emerald wall with a big fat emerald door. Weasel grabbed the handle and knocked softly. Keith began smashing the handle for the entire city to hear.

A munchkin with its hair tied up grumbled in a deep voice out of a cubby from above, "Who goes there"?

"Dani," gasped Weasel, "How did you get up there"?

"That not Dani," Keith corrected him, "That's her brother".

The munchkin growled, "I'm a girl".

"Oh," the three boys stepped back.

"Shut up," Dani held her hands at them and turned to the munchkin, "Let us in. We're here to see the Wizard of Oz, and please don't argue. I already killed like two of your witches".

The Munchkin closed her little cubby and opened the gates. Everything was made of emerald. The buildings were green. The wheels on the wagons screeched. Outfits were 50 shades of green. Even the water from the fountain was green. But it didn't look nasty. Even Keith and Dani wanted to try it. Weasel and Eidem already did. Both thought it was plain water.

Dani chuckled as she and Eidem ordered. It was times like this that kept her playing the game. Times where she can be anywhere, trying anything, with her crazy friends.

After watching Keith and Watson devour their meals, the team ventured off to look around the city. It was still nice, but kinda repetitive. Their sights were drawn in on the weapon and magic shops which were interconnected.

Inside was Oaka and Oaka, two cousins of the Oaka family. One presented weapons and armors alike whereas the other had crazy spells and summons for purchasing.

The four thought minimal about their decision to buy all the armor for the hell of it. They probably spent another minute doing the same for weapons.

Keith rose up his great axe, "Y'all think emerald is stronger than diamond"?

Watson's eyes widened, "I thought diamond was the strongest".

Dani felt the eyes on her before she looked, "I mean-".

Eidem twitched, "Diamond has to be the strongest".

Dani rolled her hand around, "Yeah, but there's other factors too. And for example, we don't have diamonds right now".

Watson stared at her, "But diamonds are stronger, right"?

Monkeys flew outside, tearing the city apart. They murdered anything they could find which breathed. On slammed a munchkin into the window of the shop.

"Oh shit!" yelled Eidem, "Did you guys see that little guy"?

Keith laughed, "He looked funny as hell".

"Oh well," Dani shrugged, "It's not our business".

"Poor midgets," Watson shook his head.

"Leave the midgets alone," Dani stared up at him, "They'll be alright," she rose her hands and smiled, "Now, I'm looking at this Emerald Titan and I think he is fierce".

"You're just trying to summon everything dead," Keith laughed.

A gorilla, whose head reached above the buildings, flew down outside, "Where is the sorceress Dani"?

Dani flipped through the spellbook, "Not anywhere to deal with that crazy nonsense," she sighed, "So what do y'all think I should do"?

Watson scratched his head, "Just get the Emerald spell. Leave everything else".

"Dude," Eidem looked around, "That's a waste. Diamond is better in every way".

Keith held his hand out, "But she's a sorceress and there are times we can't use diamonds like now".

Outside, the gorilla slammed munchkins into walls and dragged their bodies through the streets. Emerald City began looking like a Christmas town where red and green were the colors. He'd announced that he would attack the wizard and made his way towards the castle. No munchkin could phase him or even land a scratch.

Midway through, a silent shot came to his head. There was a tiny spec of blood by his eye. Nothing crazy. His fur was magic resistant and his heavy physique gave him enough defense to sustain most attacks.

Seconds after, when the gorilla looked for his shooter, a colorless blast shot him in the head. He fell across a cart and tumbled into a building. His head spun to different colors of white, black, and purple before finding the strength to rise up. Blood poured down to his palms. Another blast struck his ċhėst. Down to his flesh was exposed.

At a distance, Dani turned to Keith, "See! You got this. Just keep blasting him every time he gets up and he'll die soon".

Keith laughed, "Okay".

Watson clapped his palms and interlocked his fingers, "Ready!" he boosted Dani's magic.

She chuckled as her eyes glowed, "Let's summon both of these two".

Monkeys swarmed in, tracing her magic. One by one, Nolan Eidem killed off the primates. Given Weasel's magic boost, he was able to freely camouflage himself and mask his presence from the beasts.

Without worry of the bodies falling around her, Dani blackened the sky, "Alright Watson! You can get in there now! I got this"!

Watson bounced in place for a moment, looking to find where to begin. It was Eidem who gave left and right lateral limits for security. With a clear direction in mind, he began firing various elements to shoot down the monkys.

"Gorilla is dead!" yelled Keith, "Weasel! I need power"!

Again, at the expense of his body, Weasel powered Keith to a full charge, "I got you".

Eidem directed the two so they were all three protecting Dani. It was only a moment later, full of bickering, that the water dragon from earlier flew down from the sky. Its body was mangled. Patches of flesh were missing. Black blood leaked from its teeth. There was an odor that was smelled from across the city as it swam through the air, swallowing the tiny beasts in groups.

Likewise, a black tiger with white stripes rose up from the ground. It growled to interchange its colors. Half its face was torn to the bone. Its hair was scratched in various spots. It leaped, catching a number of monkeys in its jaws.

The four sliced and mostly blasted their way to victory over the time span of maybe twenty minutes. Dani for one couldn't help compare it to the first time they fully ȧssembled as a team in the midst of an apocalypse where lizard creatures attacked Earth. Eidem recalled Watson trying to hack into a lizard creature, only to trip backward and drop the machete. Keith remembered Eidem literally shitted himself and nearly got them kicked out for the day. Watson reminded them of Keith's panic attack.

Dani laughed at it all and showed how much they've gotten stronger in the past year and a half. Eidem was all over the place and able to do everything with or without a team. Keith was physically the strongest in the stadium and a personal ironman in every theme. Watson was a useful offensive support, whose utility and Hell abilities were unrivaled. Even in alchemy themes, he could ensure the team was able to perform any technique in their arsenal which would otherwise be restricted. That left Dani, the sorceress supreme with a nack for medical, gun, and explosive magic. In a glance, she swirled what had look like tiny black ghosts into her boys' bodies and absorbed their wounds away.

The four walked up to Emerald Castle where Bariqa appeared, "Thank you, Sorceress Dani. We are truly grateful to you and everything you did to save us".

"Woooow!" Keith looked away, "Like we ain't do anything"!

"Dude!" Eidem smiled at his boys, "I know I protected her and had to tell Watson what to do when he got lost".

Dani smiled with her tongue out, waiting for her cue.

Keith was still smiling, "I know she couldn't take out that gorilla either".

Dani stepped through the large Emerald doors, being opened by two munchkins, and into the castle, "I don't know dude!" Dani strutted down a walkway, "I think everyone's all jealous and shit 'cause I'm like the lead singer of a band dude," she waved off the munchkins who were smiling at her, "And I think everyone's got a fuċkin' problem with me dude. And they need to take it up with me after the show. Because," she broke into a dance, "These chicks don't even know the name of my band," gave her fans a cold shoulder, "But they're all on me like they wanna hold hands," and spun to her three guys,"'Cause once I blow they know that I'll be the man," she turned back to the front, "All because I'm the lead singer of my band".

Munchkins ran up, letting her use them as props as she sang up the stairway, "So I get off stage right and drop the mic. Walk up to the hot chicks and I'm all like, "'Sup ladies, my name's Slim Shady. I'm the lead singer in D12 baby' they're all like".

A munchkin sang in, "'Oh my God it's him'," another came, "'Becky oh my fuċkin' God it's Eminem'," a third jumped to their side, "'I swear to fuċkin' God dude you fuċkin' rock', a fourth finished, "'Please Marshall please let me suck your ċȯċk'".

Eidem and Kieth were hyped, ready to rip into her. Watson, however, was dancing around with his eyes closed and enjoying the song My Band.

Dani picked back up and continued, "And by now the rest of the fellas get jealous. Especially when I drop the beat and do my acapellas," she reached the top of the stairway, and recieved tons of provacative laundry thrown at her, "All the chicks start yellin', all the hot babes Throw their bras and their shirt and their pȧntɨės on stage," she paid them no mind, causing some of the munchkins to gets upset, "So like every single night they pick a fight with me. But when we fight it's kinda like sibling rivalry," they all began running up to her, forcing security to step in, "Cuz they're back on stage the next night with me. Dude I just think you're tryna steal the light from me. Yesterday Kuniva tried to pull a knife on me," Dani kept flexin and dancing as though it was a part of her normal life, "Cause I told him Jessica Alba's my wife to be. This rock star shit, it's the life for me. And all the other guys just despise me because. These chicks don't even know the name of my band. But they're all on me like they wanna hold hands," she turned to her guys for a moment, "'Cause once I blow they know that I'll be the man," she aimed forward once more, "All because I'm the lead singer of my band".

Keith ran up and fought Dani for the spotlight, "You just wanna see a nigga backwards don't you? Hey dad how come we don't rap on Protools?" he danced at Dani, "Smash these vocals and do a performance. But we in the van and you're in a tour bus," he looked at the munchkins, "You don't want my autograph, yous a liar. And no I'm Swift".

A munchkin smacked his head, "Oh I thought you was Kuniva".

Keith turned to Bariqa, "What the hell is wrong with that dressing room?

'Cause my shit is lookin' smaller than a decimal," he turned to the nobles smiling, "See I know how to rap, see it's simple but, all I did was read a Russell Simmons book," his dancing got heavier, "So I'm more intect, tryna get on the map. Doin' jumpin jacks whilin' get whipped on my back".

Eidem came to his side, "Look at Em little punk ȧss thinkin' he the shit".

Keith leaned in, "Yeah I know man find himself takin on a flick".

Eidem threw his hands at Dani, "Hey I thought we had an interview with DJ Clue".

Dani walked past them, "No! I had an interview not you two".

Keith tapped Nolan, "You gonna be late for soundcheck".

Nolan shrugged away, "Man I ain't goin' to soundcheck".

Keith tapped his head, "But our mics are screwed up and his always sound best".

Nolan complained, "You know what man I'ma say somethin".

Keith hollered, "Hey yo Em"!

Dani turned at them, "You got somethin' to say"?!

Eidem shook his head, "Man no"

Keith laughed at him and waited for Dani to turn forward, "I thought you bout to tell him off, what's up"?

Nolan kept doing a dance in his walk, "Man I'ma tell him when I feel like it, man shut up! And you ain't even back me up when we s'posed to be crew".

Keith corrected him, "When I was bout to talk right after you"?

Dani cut them off to sing the chorus up to the restricted area where Eidem took over, "They say the lead singers rock, but the group does not. Once we sold out arenas to the amusement park, he danced his way through at a high speed, "I'm gonna let the world know that proof is hot".

Dani whispered, "I should cut his mic off when the musics starts".

Eidem snap towards a munchkin passing by," Ready to snap on a dumbass fan

Every time I hear,"

The munchkin ran, yelling, "Hey dude I love your band".

Eidem snapped, "We ain't a band bitch. We don't play instruments," he threw a hand at Dani, "So why he get 90 and we only get ten percent. And these guys they can find every area code," the security stopped him, "Can't make it to the stage, security in my way".

A couple of nobles yelled, "Who the fuċk are you? Where's Obie and Dre?!" as Dani brought her team past the security and onto the elevator,

Weasel stood in front and faced the door on the elevator as it went up, "Goddammit I'm sick of this group. Time for me to go solo and make some loot," he was actually kinda aggressive with his movements, "I told you I made the beats and wrote all the raps. Till Kon Artist slipped me some crack," he was snapping and getting into his verse, "Lose Yourself video I was in the back. Superman video I was in the back," he turned to Bariqa, "Fuck the media, I got some suggestions. Fuck Marshall, ask us the questions. Like who's D12, how we get started?"

Bariqa smiled at him, "What about Eminem"?

Watson ċȯċked his head, "Bitch are you retarded?" he turned back, "Anyway I'm the popularest guy in the group," stetched his hands in front of his slender stomach, "Big ȧss stomach, bitches think I'm cute".

Dani waved at him, "Hey sėxy".

The elevator reached the floor and Weasel finished his part with vigorous head motions, "50 told me to do situps to get buff. I did two and a half and then I couldn't get up. Fuck D12, I'm outta this band. I'm gonna start a group with the real Roxanne"!

Just as the elevator doors opened, the four rushed out in a low stance and slowly rose their hands up in unison, "Girl why can't you see you're the only one for me. And it just tears my ȧss apart to know that you don't know my na-a-a-ame".

They continued dancing sideways and about in unison as they made their way to a giant crystal, "These chicks don't even know the name of my band! But they're all on me like they wanna hold hands"!

Eidem shouted, "Fuck Marshall"!

They finished with big smiles on their faces, "Cuz once I blow I know that I'll be the man. All because I'm the lead singer of my band! My band! My band! My band! My band"!

An explosion went off in front of them, emitting green smoke and a chalky scent. The music and the dancing were cut short for everyone. Except for Weasel. He was still dancing and finishing the song in his head.

"It is I," a head was formed of smoke in front of the crystal, "The Wizard of Oz".

Eidem smiled up, "Oh that's cool. What's up dude"?

"Oh my God," Dani smiled, "I remember wanting to be Dorothy when I was little. Mostly Hermoine, but Dorothy too".

Eidem looked over, "Emma Watson is so hot".

Watson looked away, "Bleh. Give me Luna".

Keith smiled, "Luna was nice".

The wizard spoke with a tone that shook the castle and created a storm that stretched across the ceiling, "I see before me, four youths lost in their ways! May it be due to their upbringing or the challenges of life, I swear to you, it will not be long before you've each met your demise!" lightning struck from above, "I will present each of you a single gift which will guide you to a healthier, more suitable lifestyle".

Everyone in Dani's team looked at one another for a clue on what to do.

It was Weasel who looked up with a tiny it of courage, "Trade"?

"Excuse me!" roared the wizard.

Keith held up his great emerald axe, "Yeah, we just want some stuff and that's it".

Dani waved her hands at him, "But like, no fees. We paid enough for the weapons. We don't want to pay extra just to have them permanently".

The wizard's nose flared, "I have spoken"!

Watson turned to Dani, "But we made a counteroffer"?

She nodded at him, "We did," she turned to the wizard, "Listen, you can give us whatever, we're just telling you what we want. Okay"?

"Hold it!" Keith stopped the wizard rom speaking, "I just remembered, the wizard from THe Wizard of Oz was a fake".

"Oh yeah," Eidem looked around, "Doesn't he give me a diploma?" he pointed at Keith, "You a heart clock and Watson something"?

Keith kissed his teeth, "A heart clock that ticks".

Watson nodded, "I want real toys".

"We all want real toys, Weasel," Keith licked his lips.

Dani shook herself, "So. Where's our-" a gust of wind shot across them, knocking little Dani to her buŧŧ, "Okay, I think that's real magic".

After Dani stood back up, the four stretched themselves, ready to take on this boss fight. Emerald pillars shot from every corner of the room. Not for a second did Dani's team care. Their only concern was his power source, whether it be natural or inorganic.

Dani and Keith stepped apart to charge their spells as Eidem and Weasel ran towards the large crystal. Emerald pillars struck towards the two of which both disappeared.

Dani unleashed her power, letting of heavy machine-gun fire that tore down a lot of the growing pillars. The wizard tried to focus in on her, but Keith blasted the crystal where his face appeared, causing it to crack apart.

There stood the wizard with a ring glowing green on his right hand. He channeled his powers directly at the two, but sensed something coming his way.

Eidem appeared, snatching towards the ring. The wizard backed away in time but was randomly smacked by Weasel.

Eidem spun, giving the wizard a round kick to the ribs and enabling Watson to grab the ring hand and shoot a blade from his free palm into the wizards jaw.

The blade shattered, doing almost no damage. It was a struggle for Watson to keep hold of the hand while Eidem grabbed hold of the wizard and locked him in place.

"From the second!" shouted Weasel, allowing Keith to appear with a heavy swing of his great emerald axe through the wizard.

Dani ran up, using her magic to slice off the ring hand, "Finish him"!

Eidem held the wizard down for Keith to decapitate him. Once done, they kicked his head around like a soccer ball until Dani grabbed the ring and called them over. She formed a transmutation circle with the ring in her hand and a circle around each of her teammates.

"Link!" Dani called, "We need to hurry up and get what we want".

"All armor and my Emerald great axe!" said Keith.

"Done!" Dani spoke as blood came before her, "I'm keeping those two summonses because they were putting in work out there".

Watson smiled at her with the tiger's hide in hand, "I want whatever weapon I can get from that tiger I killed".

"Done-ooone!" sang Dani with a pair of gauntlets forming before him, "And lets get Eidem that thread so he can stitch himself together".

As Watson dressed in his new weapon, Eidem snatched the ring, "And I want this".

"Really?" Dani ċȯċked her head, "You know that shit's getting old, right"?

Their link broke as Eidem stepped away, "Now I will call forth my lord and he will take the land of Oz," a portal to hell opened behind him, "Witness as a power beyond your dreams unfolds to take hold of your souls".

"And steals your face," Dani spoke in a deep voice.

Keith laughed, "I soon go to Hell anyway. It's only a matter of time".

Watson struggled to speak, "They really do have face snatchers in Hell"!

Dani laughed to them both before shooting Eidem down. It was as a large creature reached for the portal that Weasel closed it and Keith ran up to grab the cracked ring from Eidem. Looking down at it, Keith watched it shatter and apologized to Dani.

"Oh," whɨnėd Dani, "I wanted to get that stone".

Watson scratched around in midair with his new Black and White tiger Gauntlets, "Don't worry Dani, we'll find you a new power upgrade".

She pouted, "It's okay. I'm already the most powerful in the stadium. As proven last June event," she pointed at the three boys, "However, this crap you three keep putting me through is bullshit. Cut it out!" Watson and Keith tried to explain, "Nah ah. Don't try to explain me nothing... Stop, ditching me".

Watson exhaled and threw his hands down, "It's literally the hallmark of our series".

"Mmhmm," Keith nodded, "From day one we've been abandoning your ȧss".

Dani laughed, "Oh my God. I swear niggas ain't shit," she turned over, "Are you alright over there Eidem"?

He rose his head and smiled, "You shot me"!

"Great news!" smiled Bariqa, "Leira stopped the war in Gillikin Country".

Dani was taken by that, "What? Who? Why the fuċk is Leira here"?

Watson's eye grew wide to explain, but was cut off by Keith who knew he could explain it better, "Basically what happened was... We're broke, but we wanted to throw you a party for abandoning you last week and because we just wanted to throw one. So what we did, was throw a restricted party that will be publically viewed for profit. Extending proceeds will go to us".

Dani shook her head with her eyes squinted, "There won't be any, but anyways".

"So now," Keith continued, "It's you and Leira. You're putting together a team here in the land of Oz and have to clear as much of the Wizard of Oz story as possible before the other.

"Whaaat?" Dani nodded, "I like that. That's pretty cool," she walked up to the wizard's throne and sat in it, "I look forward to this," Emerald City came under her control, "First, we'll take Emerald City and turn it into Beryl," she waved a finger at her three boys, "Bet y'all didn't know that, "As the green faded to pink across the city, she finished, "And we will beat Leira, and her squad, again for the record. And we will do it in front of everybody".

Between Keith, Eidem, and Watson, the three looked out of an opening Dani was creating to view the city, knowing that their Oz adventure was just beginning.
