Hey guys!
Wish Feather, a relatively new guild, has been busy with events to get the guildmates' blood running with adrenaline! As of Sept. 2016, we've had three events, one big one, a birthday event and and a couple-hours-long-event that was more of a punishment if you ask me XD (long story, might be seen in here).
So I had the idea to remember these events as fiction, based off of the events and things that happened in them. On that note, most of this is either true, made up by guild members DURING the event, or I winged it and added some stuff that DID NOT HAPPEN. It may be a reason for something in the event that didn't have much of a reason to happen, or whatever. This is also written in 3rd person, so that way there's no real main character. I try not to be biased when putting myself in the stories XD
As a proud member of Wish Feather, this is one of my contributions to the fun (and stupidity XD) of this amazing guild. I feel so lucky to have joined.
But anyway, the first entry is Part 0 of the first event. You can find the event info listed on our guild page on the SK wiki. Just search "Wish Feather" and look around. You'll see it.
Enjoy my writing. This is intended to be stupid, if I changed that I would completely erase the fun of the events. XD
....OH WAIT!
I forgot to mention something! I just feel like I should note this...
The Part 0 I've posted is actually something that happened up to the boss battle. I don't remember the details, like what dialogue was actually said or what weapons everyone brought, but I did my best. It made sense to have this start the event because, hey, we ran Jelly King the night before the event actually started, and the cause of the event happened the night before the event so yeah...
Okay just go read it.

ENTRY 1 - Logged by an anonymous WF Officer
Jelly Needs More Love, CODEX 0.5
Sept. 24, 2016 - 12:48 AM
It was late at night. Like, REALLY late at night. The fellow feathers were mostly asleep in their beds, dreaming of the weekend and a day of just goofing off together. Everyone was happy, content, and very, very, very tired.
But four of them, three officers and a guildmaster, were up into the late hours of the night and plotting something...stupid.
Something very stupid. And dumb. And idiotic. And any other words you can think of that mean “something they probably shouldn’t have done”.
~~~~~
“I’m totally gonna die. There’s no chance I’ll survive this.” A very sleepy Angel-Girl stared at her Proto Sword in disbelief before letting out a splitting yawn. She sounded more amused than horrified, which is kind of hard to do when you’re half awake.
The other three either ignored her or didn’t hear her, whichever one it was. All of them were waiting inside the lobby room which lead to the Royal Jelly Palace. They were planning a deathly dangerous maneuver...to fight the Jelly King without dying- in a full set of Proto Armor. Complete armor, sword, gun, and shield, no cheating allowed. Who knows why they came up with this idea, who knows why they came up with anything.
“Are you guys ready?” Solotron smiled mischievously, and twirled one of his many Proto Swords on the metal plated floor.
“I guess…?” Marinehobo rubbed his eyes and replied with a statement that sounded like a question.
“Why are we even doing this?” Kanothis blinked, as he wondered what on Isora he was doing up so late, getting prepared to be slaughtered by a bunch of tiny purple slime cubes. Crazy. That’s what they all were, crazy. Absolutely insane.
“Because we can!” Solotron giggled through his words.
Angel-Girl sighed, and wished with all her might on the shooting star she saw last night for 100 Sparks of Life for this Winterfest. “If you say we’re doing it because we can, can we NOT do it? Because you didn’t say we HAVE to!” she said in a half whiny, half amused-snorting voice.
“Ooooh yeah. Thanks for correcting me, Angel. AHEM.” he cleared his throat before declaring very loudly, “We HAVE to do it! So come on!” Solotron shoved the three officers towards the elevator before hopping on himself.
“I KNEW I shouldn’t have said that…” Angel-Girl muttered underneath her breath as the elevator lowered slowly to the Royal Jelly Palace.
“Then why’d you say it?” Solotron asked promptly after she’d finished, apparently having heard her anyway. Angel-Girl gave him a death glare that matched Feron’s when he was REALLY mad. Marine’s mouth twitched, fighting against a smile. But Kanothis couldn’t help it, and a laugh burst out of his mouth. Solotron joined in, and together they sounded REALLY loud. Angel-Girl’s eye twitched, not from anger but because she was trying to hide the itching laugh that was rising up her throat, and keep looking like she was mad. The laughter was contagious and then Marine caught it.
But finally the four were all laughing to some degree, and the sound filled the Clockworks as the elevator continued down through the depths.
~~~~~~
As it turned out, they weren’t able to survive past the first few walls of the palace, and they were murdered mercilessly. While pink spiked jellies and giant red lichens gathered around them, they agreed to start over, but this time to bring any weapons and shield of their choosing. That time they fared much better than before, and plowed through the two depths without many casualties.
Ooh, and Silent Nightblades are OP.

“Solo, what’s with the cookies?” Kanothis stared at Solotron in confusion.
Solotron looked up from nibbling his chocolate chip cookie and answered casually “Cookies are yummy, yo!” before chomping away again, chocolate on his Quicksilver Helm and crumbs on his canteen and mechtennas.
Angel looked over at Marine, who looked over at Kanothis, who looked back and shrugged, as if to say “Whatever”. While Solotron was finishing his cookie they checked their gear to be sure it was charged and ready.
When the four entered the throne room, as expected tons of Jellies, Purple Jelly Cubes, and none other than the slimy royalty himself, the Jelly King, spawned and began their malicious defense.
The four set to action straight away, not hesitating to throw saved Fire and Poison Potions at the King, and spamming their Dark Retributions, Polaris-line guns and Silent Nightblades.
Solotron was taking the gigantic Jelly King head on, and Angel-Girl was trying to destroy the spike shooting slimes while Kanothis was alternating between hitting the gelatinous king and dodging all the minions after him. Marine was chucking potions left and right and causing all sorts of effects on the enemy.
None of them realized that there were more and more Jellies spawning than there usually were, until it was too late. As more Jellies glorped to life, they started forming together, almost as if they were grouping, and began trying to overtake the Knights. Angel-Girl and Kanothis were backed into a corner by the mindless jellies, and the two were barely able to keep the Jellies at bay.
Angel-Girl spammed her Gigawatt Pulsar to keep the monsters back, and a horrified look crossed her face when she ran out of ammo. “Oh crap!” she cursed and switched to her Silent Nightblade. In the process a Jelly started to...glorp...her, and right before it could hit, Kanothis blasted it into a core with his sword charge.
“Thanks!” Angel-Girl yelped as another spike nearly impaled her foot.
Kanothis opened his mouth to answer but a purple Jelly cube attacked him from behind, and to that he angrily mauled it with his gun. It turned to jelly clumps and died.
Repeatedly they would try to get through the mob, but every time they thought they were out, the gap would close and they would be stuck again.
“Marine! Help!” Angel screamed over the rising wall of jellies.
They couldn't see anything beyond the mob besides the Jelly King, who was raging mad. Marine waded over to form a break in the mob, but was carried away by more slimes. They couldn't tell if Solotron was dead or still attacking, and it went like this until his yell suddenly pierced the air, and the Jelly King just disappeared. He didn't explode or die, he was just... gone.
The Jellies suddenly stopped in their tracks, ceasing their attacks on the near exhausted Knights in the corner. They glopped over the edge, seeped through cracks in the walls or just dissipated.
Kanothis, Marine and Angel-Girl were alert, but they lowered their weapons, confused. They looked around for Solotron, and then they spotted him. He was crumpled on the ground, not dead, a bit bloody, but almost...petrified. Dazed. Shocked. They couldn't see his face past his goggles for his surprise, but he was unnaturally still.
“Solo!” All three officers yelled at the same time, dropped their weapons, and ran over at nearly the same pace to their guild master and friend.
“Solo? What happened? Wake up man!” Kanothis shook Solotron in order to get him out of his daze. Marine shuffled through his bags for a VitaCapsule. Angel-Girl waved her hand in front of Solotron’s blank face and poked him repeatedly.
“Solo?” Angel-Girl attempted to trigger him somehow. “ Hey! Chu! Ice cream! Um...Livestreaming!” she paused to think of something else that might catch his attention. “Cookies! Ship-”
At ‘cookies’, Solotron jerked his head up and nearly had a panic attack. He started rambling gibberish about cookies and the Jelly King, and both Angel-Girl and Marine backed away a little while Kanothis grabbed his arms to keep him from flailing around. Both were speechless.
“What the- Solo, calm down!” Kanothis grunted while struggling to hold Solotron back. “Calm down! Tell us what happened!”
Solotron didn't- or couldn't- answer, he went into hysterics and wouldn't listen to any of the two. He sounded terrified, and that something had taken away all of his stability.
“SOLO, THAT'S ENOUGH!” Kanothis yelled, not out of anger or frustration but to be heard over Solotron’s noise. “What happened?!”
“The cookies!” Solotron finally yelled, and the other three just stared at him in confusion.
“Cookies?” Angel-Girl asked in a low tone, feeling as if this was bigger than just plain old cookies, somehow. She might've shrugged it off if Solotron wasn't acting like this. If he was being so hysterical, there had to be a legitimate reason.
Solotron finally stopped struggling against Kanothis, staring at the ground in shock. He didn't make a sound, he didn't cry, scream, or even talk at all.
When he looked up, he was completely distraught. “He took them. He took my cookies.”
