In {{Episode|29}} we go back to the group at the arcade, who is still mindlessly celebrating when [[Juichi]] randomly pops in to exclaim about another portal emerging in the area. Nanako harks on him for not keeping the matter private, but decides [[it's totally okay]] anyway, since everyone there is a friend...except Gypsum? Regardless, Gypsum is present and interested in the matter. Juichi informs the gang that two people have emerged from the portal (more specifically, one person and one..."life form"). Arle speculated they might have been Ringo and Eltia, who have been stuck inside Ekoro's Orb the whole arc, but it was actually revealed these people were entirely new. Gypsum's curiosity was sparked, although she was reluctant to go investigate with the others. Eventually, she is swayed to join, and they board the [[FGF Helicopter]], which is basically a second ADMA helicopter, much to the nostalgia of Draco, Sig and Rider. They flew around Primp, to the forest where Homu-Mikki resided. Noticeable from the helicopter was the huge hole Daichi had put in Mikki's roof, along with the Hood Girl fixing it. The helicopter descended, somehow failing to gather the attention of the Hood Girl, and everyone disembarked. The Helicopter DID get the attention of Daichi, and he came running out to marvel it's majesty(?), along with Mikki and Puyorin. After the usual "LOL HI WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE" chit chat, Juichi decides to go back into the helicopter for some lunch, and Gypsum mysteriously excuses herself to make a phone call (to Angol presumably). Meanwhile Daichi gets caught up in Draco and Mikki's conversation about random things, such as [[ADMA]]. Eventually the subject lands on how the spiky-haired boy ended up in Primp, so he explains that it was Ekoro's doing. This prompts Gypsum to return from her phone call, for which she is teased by Draco. Meanwhile, Hood Girl decides that rebuilding roofs is too much work, so she comes down and reveals she is [[Ekoro's clones|Delta]], who'd rather be called Lam the Stelly. Gypsum makes a harsh judgement of clones, and the entire group lashes at her in return for making such disrespectful remarks. She feigns to innocent ignorance, which frees her from Draco's grip. Finally, Daichi gets to the point and asks to be taken to Sho, and the gang agrees to take him. But just as they're about to get on the helicopter again, both it and Juichi are sucked into a mysterious portal, which vanishes as instantly as it appears. Frustrated, the gang has to resort to walking to Puyopolis...

Elsewhere, in {{Episode|30}} Witch laments about [[Beta]]'s death. She jumps to the conclusion that Ekoro has killed her for reasons concerning her loyalty to him, and she gathers Phi and Harpy to go into [[Ekoro's Castle]] and set his record straight. When they arrive, however, Jupiter is outside, unable to find the door (again) [[for some reason]]. They agree to help let Jupiter in, knowing they'd have to find the door themselves anyway.

Eventually, Accord's screaming leads them straight to Ekoro, who is [[tentacle rape|whipping her with]] [[tentacle]]s [[for the lulz]]. Lagnus demands Ekoro to stop this torture, but Witch intervenes, allowing Ekoro to continue, much like Draco before her. After Ekoro and Jupiter are done being silly, Witch interrogates Ekoro about the death of her sister, to which he insists he didn't do after cackling. Witch decides then that she would rather join Ekoro and torture Accord than help rescue her. This completely astonishes Lagnus, and saddens Phi and Harpy, while Ekoro and Jupiter become giddy.

Back in Ekoro's Orb, Ringo and Eltia finally decide to do something about their sorry state. Eltia decides Ekoro's Base, though dark and rather Ekoronian, would be a much better place to make residence than the Abyss. Ringo contemplates this for a moment, but then she too agrees. They decide that Marcus and Steve (who is standing right next to them) should also live with them in this case. The trio then portals back into the Abyss one last time, discovering Marcus in his completely weakened and pathetic state. Given there is no way of healing him in the Abyss, Ringo and Eltia realize that Omega's [[incubation chamber]] could supply Marcus with the [[Dark_element|Dark]] energy he needs to recover. So the three of them drag Marcus back to the base and place him inside, allowing him to absorb the dark energy. Steve comments that they should also let the machine regenerate his clothing as well. Not wanting to see Marcus get naked meanwhile, the girls step outside for a moment. While they wait, Eltia apologizes for letting Ekoro and Angol escape into Primp. Ringo assures Eltia that while both villains are dangerous, that she will do what she can to prevent them from turning the world into hell. Marcus awakens shortly thereafter, and both he and Eltia realize now that, with no life (other than Epsilon) to occupy the world, it will "die off" and disappear into nothing. Ringo is shocked by this revelation, but nobody will miss the world it seems, so they [[watching paint dry|watch it vanish faster than a coat of paint can dry]]. Ringo expresses concern for her friends back in Primp, so Eltia creates another portal to Primp while Steve and Marcus team up to do some interior decorating...

Revision as of 03:15, 9 September 2011

The Post-Meteor Arc is a (newly begun) segment of Compile Worlds, taking place right after the Meteor Arc. This segment currently only covers episodes 25-30. Currently, the character roster is simmilar to the Meteor Arc's, so refer to that page for a character roster.

Locations

As of the end of the Meteor Arc, the Compile Worlds universe is divided up into eight disjoint segments (plus a rocket) of varying importance.

Primp

Characters residing in Primp at the moment:

Arle's world

The remaining Madou characters, who didn't already move to Primp, are stuck here for the time being.

Ringo's world

All the PP7 characters, other than Ringo herself, are currently living here, with no working connection to Primp or the other worlds.

Puyo Wars world

Daichi, Puyorin, Sho and Angol Mois all originate here. Any Wars characters who weren't abducted by Ekoro or otherwise sent away are still stuck here for now, with the only way to contact Primp being through Ekoro.

The Abyss

Satan, Draco, Rider and Eltia originate here, along with Marcus, Steve, Gypsum, and the Librarian. The world was accessible from a portal in the middle of Puyopolis during most of the Meteor Arc, however the portal is now defunct since Satan has left the world. Phi, Rider, Witch, Schezo Wegey, and Angol Mois were stuck here for a time moment, but they have since gone to Primp. In Episode 30, the Abyss disappeared fro existence due to all (but one?) life in the world abandoning it to live elsewhere.

Ekoro's Base

Ekoro's Base has somehow existed inside a black hole inside an orb since near the end of the Ekoro Arc. Now, Draco, Ringo, Eltia and Harpy have travelled here through Eltia's portal, and met Arle later on. Ekoro was the only person residing here before that time. As of Episode 30, Eltia, Marcus, Ringo, and Steve have decided to make the base their own home, since Ekoro is not currently using it.

Satan's Palace

After Satan and Doppelganger Arle's marriage, Satan created this Palace out of apparently nothing to seal himself away with his loved one. As such, nobody else resides here, though Satan will probably take it upon himself to populate this new Garden of Eden...

Above the Abyss

The area above the ceiling of the Abyss. During the Meteor Arc, this was accessible from the Abyss itself via a huge gaping hole, however, Satan closed this up to stop Doppelganger Schezo from following him. The others who were trapped took the last surviving portal to Ekoro's Base, so only Doppelganger Schezo remains here now. Poor guy - there's nothing around but him, and light everywhere.

Satan's Rocket

Satan built a rocket just before the Meteor Arc began. Its current whereabouts are unknown. However, it's known that a Fake Arle is still on-board the rocket, wherever it is.


Episodes

Once upon a time, in some other world

Episode 25 picks up right after where Episode 24 leaves off, with the main party (minus Witch) trapped in Ekoro's Base. While at first Draco yells at Eltia for being a n00b for dumping them off in some strange place they don't know, soon they realize it is indeed Ekoro's Base, with some minor renovations. Soon, the evil blob of nothing himself pops up. Ekoro then begins to ramble in riddles again, claiming that once he escapes the orb, he will cause chaos with Draco and Ringo in Primp again, and that "it shall be glorious!" After being dismissed as silly, Ekoro tries to show he is still sinister by revealing the real Arle Nadja is lost somewhere in his maze-like base. However, Eltia simply opens the path directly to Arle, ruining Ekoro's "fun". The rest of the episode is spent with the cast milling around ignoring Ekoro.

Episode 26 shows what is happening with the characters still stuck in the Abyss meanwhile. Lamenting about their predicament, they suddenly hear distracting music coming from out of nowhere. Soon, the music gets closer and closer...and suddenly Jupiter appears, saying hi to the gang. Upon mentioning blue and orange portals, Steve shows up, claiming to have finished a handheld portal gun, demonstrating it on Schezo. After that silliness, a quick exchange of stories reveals Jupiter is also from yet another world, having tripped into a portal somehow leading to the Abyss within there. Unfortunately, she can't seem to recall where she came in, and Steve tells the gang he cant shoot portals to other worlds. Phi tries to make the situation less bleak by suggesting Jupiter try to retrace her steps. Just as they reach an area Jupiter finds familiar, however, Balrog(HUZZAH!) appears! However, it is a fake Balrog suit that was actually housing Satan and Doppelganger Arle. After flaunting their marriage off, they leave. Steve reveals that Satan had closed off all the portals to the Abyss after he was satisfied with Doppel.

The great king Angol Mois

All hope for the gang's escape seems lost (even with A little prayer), until a mysterious girl appears. Steve somehow identifies her as Rana, but she quickly denies this, insisting she be called Gypsum. She was snooping around, overhearing their conversation of portals. Much to their convenience, she announces her employer has been developing a magic-machine hybrid that could generate portals on demand. She beckons them to her employer, and, given what little choice they have, the party follows her. However, about halfway there, Marcus finally climbs out of the pit he was in, warning them not to develop and use the machine. After mentioning Eltia, Marcus faints from exhaustion, and Gypsum dismisses him, politely demanding the party to follow them regardless of his warning. Reluctantly, they do so, leaving Witch with a sour taste in her mouth. They finally reach a house belonging to Gypsum and her employer.

The secretary-like girl then disappears into the house to let the party contemplate while she fetches her employer. Witch immediately hypothesizes they could be in a trap, making Schezo nervous to sit on the comfortable leather couches strung about. After another chorale for Marcus, Gypsum steps out from behind the door again, introducing her master as none other than Angol Mois. Angol then politely introduces himself, discussing the plan for his machine, stirring even more doubt into Witch and Jupiter's minds. Angol then explains the machine has yet to be created as he needed an Abysian crafter to create Angolium for him. A vote was then held to see if Steve would help Angol finish the machine. Only 3 of the six raised their hands in support. Witch and Jupiter firmly expressed their opposition. Angol however, kept the vote in favor of support by taking advantage of Phi's good-hearted nature. Steve and Angol eagerly went into the back of the house to work on the machine in the back, leaving Witch and Gypsum to have a verbal bitch-fight in their wake.

Portals of DOOM

Before the tension could mount to anything serious, Angol returns, announcing he has finished the machine. He soon leads the others down into his workstation, where the portal generating machine lie in all it's glory. Angol declared another vote to set the first destination of his portal device. Witch suggested that they should use it to track down Ekoro and take care of unfinished business. Angol agrees, and sets the destination of the portal to Ekoro's Base. They hop in, appearing in the weird Ekoro Dimension on the other side. Being that Ekoro's lair was the only thing that existed here, the world was pretty barren. As soon as they walked in, however, trouble had already set in: Eltia was weakened, laying on the ground similarly to Marcus. As the heroes rushed to her aid, she could only utter to Angol "Look what you've done." Eltia then suddenly went into an never-before-seen feral mode and attack Phi, draining him of nearly all his energy, essentially switching status with him. Eltia portaled away, leaving Angol in shocked fascination, and the rest of the party in confusion. Continuing forth, they reunited with Ringo, Harpy, Draco and the others, who were overwhelmed at how so many people suddenly appeared in Ekoro's Orb. However, it wasn't long before Harpy noticed Phi's peril. Whilest recovering him, Angol explained Phi was attacked by Eltia. Ringo was in denial at first, but then she was confused, wondering why Eltia would randomly attack her friend. Witch then pointed fingers at Angol and Gypsum, claiming their portal machine had drained Eltia's power to summon the portal. Angol claimed he had no knowledge that this would happen, but Ringo kept contempt for him anyway. Ekoro once again appeared on the scene, noting that with this many people coming into his orb, there must be a way out. Angol was delighted to show the fat mass of dark matter that he indeed brought a way out. Before another portal could be summoned however, Eltia appeared out of nowhere and destroyed the remote control. She then had an emotional break down, opening a portal to Primp, claiming that she didn't care if Ekoro destroyed it. Nearly everyone hopped into the portal, except Ringo, who Eltia wanted to stay with, revealing she and Marcus were related by blood. Ringo, Eltia, and Steve stayed inside Ekoro's Base while the others fled to Primp.

Ekoros and Angols and Ducks, oh my...?

Episode 27 begins with the huge cast migrating to Primp from the portal in Ekoro's Base. Everyone is dumped off at the Random Field, where Jupiter gets her face stuck in the dirt. Witch digs her up, and Ekoro and Angol lament on how "delightfully boring" the place is (unless Satan and Rulue are making love in a bush, anyway). Angol then draws more suspicion to himself by demanding he be taken to the old ADMA headquarters (and hatin on Ringo and her UTAU Hair). Angol eventually gets himself labeled as a pedo by Witch for lulz, and Schezo finally departs the group, but not before claiming he'll have Witch yet. Ekoro decides it's much to boring to linger around the field any longer, so he drags Jupiter off to Primp Magic School to cause mayhem. Draco causally ignores this detail though and volunteers to escort Rider back to the magic school. Unfortunately, Draco's goldfish-like attention span bests her again, as Ekoro is already there waiting for her. He instantly begins to erect a new base around the structure of the magic school, kicking Sig out in the process. However, Ekoro keeps the still weakened Lagnus and Ms. Accord trapped inside to torture them as hostages. Draco's grudge for Accord allows her to walk away nonchalantly and let Ekoro have his fun, despite Sig's pleas and Accord's terrified screaming. Without anything better to do, the gang heads back to the field, where the crowd has vastly died down. Angol and Gypsum are having a mysterious conversation about who knows what, which conveniently ends right as Arle notices them. Draco suddenly has the idea(hyjuumLOL) to take only Gypsum to the headquarters. Angol abides by Draco's terms, and, after Gypsum is told to meet Angol again by 4 AM, they set off for Puyopolis. The gang arrives on time for Sho's newest creation, the Sasserblaster. As punishment for making such a lame weapon though, Keiji unleashes a bunch of deranged Ducks into the base, and they easily destroy the Sasserblaster. The gang has a good laugh over Sho's despair...until Angol Mois is mentioned that is. Sho completely flips out of his vector when he hears Ekoro has returned as well. Becoming hasty and crazy, Sho demands a healthy supply of Puyo to make a tectar army with and save himself from being Ekoro's bitch again. Luckily, Gypsum's cover isn't blown, and Sho still agrees to (unknowingly) meet Angol at her specified time.

Ringo in my TSU? It's more likely than you think...

Suddenly, the gang catches eye of an advert on a computer screen in the room: a new arcade has mysteriously opened in Primp. The gang decides to take a break from all this "Ekoro and Angol nonsense" by visiting the grand opening of the arcade, much to Gypsum's chagrin. As they make their way to it's supposed location Draco can't help but feel the road they're traveling on is familiar, but she can't quite put her finger on it. Sig and Rider, being as ignorant as they are, dismiss this, and they continue to trot along their merry way. When they arrive, the arcade doesn't seem all that exciting at first...until Draco spots a Puyo Puyo TSU machine with Ringo! Next, a Sonic R machine with Blaze the Cat, Donkey Kong with Daisy. Suddenly, a familiar voice bursts over the loud speaker system boasting the arcade specializes in "obtaining your favorite games the way you want them". The voice also declares that it will reveal itself to anyone who plays and wins on any three different machines in a row. Luckily with Jupiter playing Pop'n Music as a headstart, and after the evil(?) Ducks are thwarted a second time, they begin. Draco plays TSU expertly, Sig kicks ass on Sonic R (who knew he was such a gamer?!), and Jupiter, of course, dances the Pop'n Machine into oblivion (while Gypsum sits there and does absolutely nothing), and they win the challenge. When the voice declares the winners, a bunch of chairs gather around the curtains where it is mysteriously residing. Once taking a seat, the voice finally prepares to open the curtains. A puff of smoke, a dash of confetti, and one curtain opening later, the voice is none other than Nanako, juggling her trademark crystals. Nanako announces that she built the entire arcade to congratulate Draco for (sort of) overcoming her blatant hatred of Dark mage back in Episode 24. Rider, Sig and Gypsum are clueless to this, but regardless they celebrate anyway, all of them showing Draco with lots of love and unnecessary affection. (Yay!)

A Boy and his Blob

During Episode 28 meanwhile, in another world Daichi and Puyorin lament about how Sho has been conspicuously missing for ages now. They decide to investigate the matter, and thus head out to town. They stop a pedestrian from his usual walk to interrogate him. He reveals Sho was abducted months ago by a mysterious shadowy blob into a dead end alleyway. Daichi and Puyorin confirm that neither of them know the kidnapper, but are now aware that he can transcend brick and mortar walls. As they continue to discuss the fate of their friend, suddenly the sky begins to rapidly become dark and stormy. The eye of this seemingly random storm is right above Daichi's favorite napping spot. This, of course, catches the attention of the spiky-haired protagonist and his jelly bean friend, so they ascend the hill. As they do, they discover the storm is raining Puyo, also irregular for the world despite it being crazy as all hell. When they reach the top, they discover a portal in the clouds, which Ekoro emerges from cackling. He reveals he kidnapped Sho, but insists on befriending Daichi to pop Puyo with him, commenting on how they're all "blobby". Daichi, being the block-headed hero he is, stubbornly refuses to be nice to the wicked compilation of black dots. Ekoro then begins to make his portal suck on the boy and his Puyo (sound familiar?). Daichi at first hangs on for dear life, but Puyorin suggests the portal could lead to Sho's prison. The two willingly allow the portal to absorb them after reasoning this. Ekoro, satisfied with his mischief, floats back into the portal himself as randomly as he came. Meanwhile, back in Primp, Amitie and Mikki are hanging around in Homu-Mikki until Daichi and Puyorin crash through the roof, landing on top of poor Amitie. After a moment of silliness, a mysterious Hood Girl comes out of Mikki's bed to repair the roof. Mikki then reveals to the pair that Sho is at the ADMA rubble. Daichi, enthusiastic, sets out into the unknown to find his comrade.

Show me a good Sho!

In Episode 29 we go back to the group at the arcade, who is still mindlessly celebrating when Juichi randomly pops in to exclaim about another portal emerging in the area. Nanako harks on him for not keeping the matter private, but decides it's totally okay anyway, since everyone there is a friend...except Gypsum? Regardless, Gypsum is present and interested in the matter. Juichi informs the gang that two people have emerged from the portal (more specifically, one person and one..."life form"). Arle speculated they might have been Ringo and Eltia, who have been stuck inside Ekoro's Orb the whole arc, but it was actually revealed these people were entirely new. Gypsum's curiosity was sparked, although she was reluctant to go investigate with the others. Eventually, she is swayed to join, and they board the FGF Helicopter, which is basically a second ADMA helicopter, much to the nostalgia of Draco, Sig and Rider. They flew around Primp, to the forest where Homu-Mikki resided. Noticeable from the helicopter was the huge hole Daichi had put in Mikki's roof, along with the Hood Girl fixing it. The helicopter descended, somehow failing to gather the attention of the Hood Girl, and everyone disembarked. The Helicopter DID get the attention of Daichi, and he came running out to marvel it's majesty(?), along with Mikki and Puyorin. After the usual "LOL HI WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE" chit chat, Juichi decides to go back into the helicopter for some lunch, and Gypsum mysteriously excuses herself to make a phone call (to Angol presumably). Meanwhile Daichi gets caught up in Draco and Mikki's conversation about random things, such as ADMA. Eventually the subject lands on how the spiky-haired boy ended up in Primp, so he explains that it was Ekoro's doing. This prompts Gypsum to return from her phone call, for which she is teased by Draco. Meanwhile, Hood Girl decides that rebuilding roofs is too much work, so she comes down and reveals she is Delta, who'd rather be called Lam the Stelly. Gypsum makes a harsh judgement of clones, and the entire group lashes at her in return for making such disrespectful remarks. She feigns to innocent ignorance, which frees her from Draco's grip. Finally, Daichi gets to the point and asks to be taken to Sho, and the gang agrees to take him. But just as they're about to get on the helicopter again, both it and Juichi are sucked into a mysterious portal, which vanishes as instantly as it appears. Frustrated, the gang has to resort to walking to Puyopolis...

Bitchy Witchy and Mr. Blobby

Elsewhere, in Episode 30 Witch laments about Beta's death. She jumps to the conclusion that Ekoro has killed her for reasons concerning her loyalty to him, and she gathers Phi and Harpy to go into Ekoro's Castle and set his record straight. When they arrive, however, Jupiter is outside, unable to find the door (again) for some reason. They agree to help let Jupiter in, knowing they'd have to find the door themselves anyway. Phi accidentally finds said door while this very conversation is happening, leaning against what he thought was the wall. They stumble in and find Ekoro's been hard at work converting the former magic school into his new base: Ekoro-goop covers the walls and ceilings, the carpets change color, and even the air is unsettling! Nevertheless, asking the Yuki-Onna to lead the way, they press onward, only to be ambushed by Lagnus the Brave, who had been trapped inside earlier due to ignorance. Lagnus and Phi greet for the first time, and Lagnus joins the party as they make their way through the possessed hallways. Eventually, Accord's screaming leads them straight to Ekoro, who is whipping her with tentacles for the lulz. Lagnus demands Ekoro to stop this torture, but Witch intervenes, allowing Ekoro to continue, much like Draco before her. After Ekoro and Jupiter are done being silly, Witch interrogates Ekoro about the death of her sister, to which he insists he didn't do after cackling. Witch decides then that she would rather join Ekoro and torture Accord than help rescue her. This completely astonishes Lagnus, and saddens Phi and Harpy, while Ekoro and Jupiter become giddy. Lagnus, however, refuses to back down, so Ekoro sends Witch and Jupiter to do battle with him outside...

There's no place like Ekoro's Base~

Back in Ekoro's Orb, Ringo and Eltia finally decide to do something about their sorry state. Eltia decides Ekoro's Base, though dark and rather Ekoronian, would be a much better place to make residence than the Abyss. Ringo contemplates this for a moment, but then she too agrees. They decide that Marcus and Steve (who is standing right next to them) should also live with them in this case. The trio then portals back into the Abyss one last time, discovering Marcus in his completely weakened and pathetic state. Given there is no way of healing him in the Abyss, Ringo and Eltia realize that Omega's incubation chamber could supply Marcus with the Dark energy he needs to recover. So the three of them drag Marcus back to the base and place him inside, allowing him to absorb the dark energy. Steve comments that they should also let the machine regenerate his clothing as well. Not wanting to see Marcus get naked meanwhile, the girls step outside for a moment. While they wait, Eltia apologizes for letting Ekoro and Angol escape into Primp. Ringo assures Eltia that while both villains are dangerous, that she will do what she can to prevent them from turning the world into hell. Marcus awakens shortly thereafter, and both he and Eltia realize now that, with no life (other than Epsilon) to occupy the world, it will "die off" and disappear into nothing. Ringo is shocked by this revelation, but nobody will miss the world it seems, so they watch it vanish faster than a coat of paint can dry. Ringo expresses concern for her friends back in Primp, so Eltia creates another portal to Primp while Steve and Marcus team up to do some interior decorating...
