____________~☆°♡°☆°♡°☆~______________
Fallback Procedure Begin
They might have pushed Caine a little too far this time. This wasn't even the worst of it, but he was still going a little crazy and they needed to find a stop to it. Fast.
Pomni's idea was to put a bucket on Kingers head for some darkness. Her and Ragatha understood, and soon, so did the others. On why this was important. It would bring him to sanity. It just took way longer than normal.
"Hey Pomni" Kinger spoke softly.
Finally!!
Said Jester filled him in and they started with phase two of the plan.
Jax was already distracting the ringmaster. The others would join him soon enough as well while Pomni haunted for a computer for now bucket Kinger. She walked through the halls of the fake exit door once again, like she did when she first arrived, before grabbing the old computer with her transporting the hefty object to the chess peice.
"Do you need help with power or anything?" Pomni asked handing the keyboard to him.
"Nah, I can use my imagination for that"
Pomni took a deep breath
"You got this?"
"...I think so" Kinger spun the bucket around to the back of it as if it was a baseball cap. Even in serious times like this Kinger always knew how to pull some humor out of things. Even if he didn't realize it himself.
Kinger took a deep breath, pressing the button as it turned on. "It sure has been a while...I might need some time to get my bearings. Try to help the others distract Caine while I figure this out. He may sense something when I really get into it"
"Oh-Okay! I-I'll do that!" Pomni got up, determined to do her best to help everyone.
She moved towards the others away from the pillow fort. Or his impenetrable fortress as he calls it. Before stopping to thank him for helping them out with this and for everything.
Kinger watches her leave with longing before getting to work on hacking into Caines code.
This distraction turned into the biggest fit of Caines life. He finally snapped and now it was everyone's problem. The man glitched out so hard his voice got glitchy and deeper and he grew four more arms. Grabbing everyone in a rage he brought them to his face.
"Im gonna put you freaks in your place!" He threw them all into a dark space torturing them with their greatest fears and biggest insecurities.
Kinger got closer and closer to getting it but the code kept fighting back. He couldn't get the right password for an admin overdrive and he was freaking out trying to get everything together in time before Caine gave up and could find him.
Caine soon ripped everyone out of there and pinned them to the wall with his new five armed form. He was shouting at them about purpose and what he does for them all. Angry. Confused. Hurt. Crazy.
Kinger found Caines file during this time and accidentally clicked a button. The fallback system had begun. Everything was resetting, he had no control.
"Wait! No! S#!t!" He scrambled to try and fix it but nothing would work. The damage was done.
Caine suddenly popped over in normal form 7 feet away from everyone. Dropping everyone in the process due to the loss of the other hands. He couldn't move. The only functions he could use were his eyes and mouth, his body was still. Everyone stared up at him frozen. Unsure of what was happening but all assuming it was Kingers doing.
"But. Wait-"
Kinger walked out bucket still on his head looking at him too.
"What did you DO!?" Caine yelled "I can't move! You–" He paused mid sentence a wobbly smile starting to grace his features.
Kinger shrugged "I'm not exactly sure...but it seems to be working, you're stuck"
Caine tried his best to hold it in but he knew he can't hold on for long. Jax was the first to notice.
"Whats up with your face?" He spoke in a curious yet sassy way.
Canie huffed "N-Nothing! STOP ASKING!" Jax rolled his eyes and shrugged. The feeling kept spreading. Like tiny electric currents running all over his system.
Kinger jumped in "Caine...?"
"MHm?" He answered trying not to giggle.
"What are you feeling, physically?" The chess peice had an idea but he wasn't sure. Was something hurting him maybe?
"N-Nohothing! Shut up!"
There it was. Pomni got it right away.
"Oh my god...Caine? Are you ticklish? Is this tickling you right now? Whatever Kinger did" she said being a bit blunt but curious.
"N-NO! I-I'm nOhot!–this isn't!–I'M not a hUman, I don't understand?!–I don't hAhave! Such–!" He paused to hold his giggles back again.
"Oh my god! Thihis is gold!" Jax laughed a little and smirked.
his body slowly floated to the floor without his control. "H-Hey! NO! No no NO!"
"Well would you look at that" Zooble crossed their arms and stared at him struggling.
They all stood over their ringmaster as he burst out laughing on the floor. Unable to do anything about it.
Nobody knew how to feel. They all just looked as he laughed his head off and kept himself stuck in a t-pose.
"TUHuhurN IhIhihIT OHoHoff!!" He closed his eyes as Kinger looked at the computer sitting still, comfortably, inside his fortress. The loading bar read 66% complete. No wonder he was feeling it more now. But this was only 66% was Caine really that sensitive?
"I'm sorry Caine, I can't do anything until it loads completely. The fallback system is at 66%"
"Look at how the tables have turned!" Jax spoke up, the smirk in his tone more prominent then ever.
"Its kinda cute" Gangle spoke with a little giggle.
Ragatha smiled with her "a little yeah, its a complete switch up from what we were just experiencing..."
Caine groaned through his laughter in frustration "I AM NoHOT CUTE! I AHaM sTihihiLL GOD!!"
Pomni smirked "a pretty weak God if you're this ticklish at only 66%"
Caine tried to put on a mad face but its hard when a lot of your attention is being taken up by little ticklish jolts that keep increasing by the second.
"78% now" Kinger smiled
"You're moving up in numbers Caine! Maybe if we help you out it'll go by faster~" Jax smirked wiggling his fingers stepping closer to where Caine lay. The others catching on fast and all loving the idea.
"A chance for some well deserved revenge!" Zooble stepped up to him as well.
"This does seem like a fair trade for torturing us before" Gangle spoke joining them to where Caine was.
The other two, Pomni and Ragatha smirked at each other then at Caine as they walked to him as well. Kinger joined them too but kept an eye on the computer mostly.
"N-No...g-G-Guhuys WAhahait! I'm Sorry! I was Juhust alittle mAhahad! No neheed to Doho! This!" Caine tried to defend his case but it was too late.
"A little mad?" Pomni replied sarcastically
"Okay a lohot mad! But–"
"No but's! You had this coming!" Ragatha smirked again
"C-Cohome On! I–"
"85%"
With that, everyone began. All 60 wiggling fingers targeted every single spot on Caines body that could potentially be ticklish. It was a sensory overload. Caines AI couldn't process what was happening fast enough so his systems were getting weaker making it only tickle more.
"NOHOHO" Caines voice started getting glitchy again but in a more silly way this time.
"Awwww! Is our ringmaster a little ticklish?~" Jax teased.
"I bet it tickles so much huh Caine?~" Pomni joined in.
"STOHOHOHOP SHUHUT UHUHUP!"
"You're so adorable like this! I like this giggly version much better!" Ragatha smiled and continued.
"Tickle Tickle Tickle~" Gangle joined in on the teasing. Her tone light but teasy.
"You deserve this Caine, serves you right for thinking we'd let you get away with what you did" Zooble added to it.
"90%" Kinger called out with a smirk. His floating hands of tickly doom for Caine where under and on top of his left knee.
Gangle got under his right knee and thigh, her ribbons feeling like feathers to those areas.
Zooble and Ragatha got his underarms.
Pomni was on his ribs.
And Jax got his stomach.
No spot was left untickled. Caine was short circuiting. He didn't know if he loved it or hated it. It was all very confusing, but he couldn't think about it. He couldn't process anything but the tickles.
"It looks like I was right again Caine, our tickles are helping the system move faster~" Jax wiggled into his stomach a little harder at faster. Caine snorted and the area around him like the couch and a peice of the wall started glitching.
"You're almost there Caine, you can handle a bit more of this right?~" Pomni teased and moved her fingers down his ribs.
"STOHOHOHOP IHIHHIT! TUHUHURN IT OHOHOHOFF!" He squeaked as Kinger pinched his thigh too. Everyone still tickling him all at once.
"I already told ya buddy I can't, not until the systems finished resetting"
Zooble smirked "For now you're just gonna have to deal with this" they dragged a claw down his arm before going back to his underarm on the right.
"STOHOHOHOP!"
"Sorry Caine! But if it helps you look adorable" Ragatha smirked "Tickletickletickletickle!" She giggled herself and continued to tickle his left underarm.
Caine blushed through his laughter.
"Awwww!" Ragatha and Gangle said at the same time.
"Theres that smile~" Gangle teased as he moved faster under his right knee making him snort again.
"Like a little piggy" Jax joked as Ragatha scolded him
"Jax!"
"What?"
"NAHAHAHA!" His laughter was so loud. It was adorable, but if they weren't all due for some revenge majority of them would've needed to plug their ears.
"99%" Kinger exclaimed as they all got faster, their tickling and teasing becoming more and more intense.
"I'm gonna getcha!"
"Look at you~ so weak, so ticklish~"
"We should've done this to you ages ago"
"Tickle Tickle Tickle~"
...pop...
Caine disappeared and reappeared outside of the circle. Fully in control of his body again. The tickling and teasing came to an abrupt halt. They all looked over at him as Caine looked down in embarrassment and regret.
"100%" Kinger smiled "How you feeling buddy?"
Canie sighed "I-I'm okay...I'm just...sorry...for everything..."
Their features softened ever so slightly.
"Caine..." Pomni said
"No...I was awful to you all...and I know you can't forgive me, at least not yet! But I promise I'll be a better host. I'll try to be from here on out..." He spoke sincerely.
Jax shrugged and put his hands behind his head acting like he doesn't care. "Whatever"
"Thats a start" Zooble said
It would take awhile for things to change for good. But, this was a good start.
"And if you don't change at all well...we might just have to give you another system reset~" Pomni smirked wiggling her fingers at him making him gasp and fly away at the speed of light.
Everyone laughed before heading separate ways to try and rest.
