The Magic Halberd Chapter 2: belding

Chapter 2: belding

Screenshot 2014-10-27 at 8.05.38 PM.pngAfter seeing itblobboy lying in a pool of blood with a bloody halberd, belding immediately ran off back to Mushroom Village, then to Elandra Island, where he thought that he would be safe.
Of course, he wasn’t safe anywhere.
Belding logged onto the Helmet Heroes forums and frantically typed up a report on itblobboy.
“Itblobboy has been abusing his strength! I’ve just seen him sitting in a pool of blood, and he was ready to kill me next! Pretty sure that’s against the ToS! Pls help! Ban him robby!”
Belding, behind a swarm of glords at the right hand side of Elandra Island, still didn’t feel safe. He spammed refresh on the forums to see if anyone replied to his post.
Sure enough, after half a minute, someone did.
Itblobboy.
“No proof. No screenshots whatsoever. No proof equals no ban.”
Belding looked at his post, stricken. He had forgotten to take screenshots in his fright! He slapped his palm against his forehead and realized what he had to do. He would have to track down itblobboy and take a screenshot of him killing someone else.
Belding tracked down itblobboy, who was still in Shroom Passage. Shuddering, belding teleported to Shroom Passage. Then, belding got an idea. An idea that belding thought was genius.
Belding contacted one of his guildies, JvonT, via PM and said, “Hey, I need some help here in Shroom Passage. I need you to dash all the way to the portal in between Mushroom Village and Shroom Passage. Then, I need you to yell out loud, ‘itblobboy is a murderer!’ Think you can do that?”
After a moment, JvonT replied, “Um...sure, I guess.”
Belding felt bad for using JvonT, his own guild member, like this. He knew that JvonT would most likely get killed as soon as he said those words. But it was necessary in order for belding to restore his reputation on forums.
JvonT showed up next to belding in Shroom Passage with a strange look on his face. “This is the weirdest thing I’ve ever done.”
Then, he dashed to where belding had instructed him to, and belding patiently followed, screenshot tool ready at hand. And sure enough, itblobboy was there, hanging out with his halberd. The only difference was that the pool of blood had been cleverly hidden, and the halberd only showed signs of a few stains of blood.
Belding expectantly waited for JvonT to say the line. And JvonT did say the line...in a somewhat distorted way than instructed.
“Belding said that you were a murderer,” JvonT said to itblobboy, and belding felt a worm of fear crawl up his throat. Belding’s eyes grew wide and itblobboy turned towards him.
“Oh, did he now?” itblobboy replied, a look of glee in his eyes. A psychotic gleam and a wicked smile.
Belding slowly backed away as itblobboy leaped at him with the halberd. But belding had no chance. Itblobboy cut off belding’s head with one swipe of his halberd.

Belding was no more.
