RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Psychospacecow - 09-27-2013 Many days had past and a stark confusion had fallen upon the land. Psycho and Ghost had been reunited and promptly plotted for a way to deal with Cuccos, but she was nowhere to be found. It would take the resurgence of one man to stir the tide, and that man was ,figuratively speaking, A Zombie Riot. Riot, the man of fallen hour had risen again after hearing of the misdeeds of Cuccos. He would not beware, and yet things were still now, as they were before the great tide of change, so no one acted, and justice was left unanswered. After all, who better to scare off a Cucco than a Cucco? RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Arjahn - 09-27-2013 Jumping out of the sewer and running at breakneck pace, SERIOUSLY THOUGH and Jiraya ran towards the city, hoping to flee the robot Petie had sent to escort themselves to his corporation. Making off towards the city, SERIOUSLY made a stunning observation, "Wait a second, if that thing was beckoned, why isn't it following us and your oozing pile of puss?" he stated to Jiraya, looking back towards the sewer grate and noticing a distinct lack of bloodthirsty robot behind them. Jiraya, using his new Mattel brand voice chip, had his speakers say in the perfect innocent teddy bear voice "I love you! No wait, fuck that. RAIDEN!" he screamed in all of his murderous cyborg assassin cuteness. They ran back towards the pipe and the robot was hunched over Raiden. With Petie still plastered on the screen, he began talking in his undeniably sexy voice. "Just give me the beard Raiden, it will be nice and easy." he said in a cool tone. Lying there helpless against an armed android, still horribly injured, Raiden looked over to SERIOUSLY THOUGH and Jiraya, seeing them watch in helpless terror. After noticing that they came back, Raiden chucked and, mustering all of his strength, uttered one last bearded proclimation. "Go fuck yourself, Petie. Or do you not have a dick for that anymore my sweetie?" With that abysmal rhyme, Raiden was done. Pulling out his magnum with surprising swiftness, Raiden shot at a structural weakpoint in the ceiling, causing the tunnel to collapse on the both of them. SERIOUSLY THOUGH just stood there, motionless. No rhymes, no muttering, nothing. Jiraya had to physically grab him and carry him out of there. "Let's be best friends! God dammit, come on. We need to find some of the others before they get picked off too." Looking over the collapsed pipe, a man with very peculiar taste in masks bent down over the corpse and picked off a nice sample of beard hairs. RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Psychospacecow - 11-05-2013 Many weeks passed. Many a man fell under the radar. The coming weeks would fall silent. Psycho would encounter Jiraiya once, and he conferred his knowledge. The Cucco was genetically cloned. They were literally all the same. RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Psychospacecow - 11-05-2013 The great break as it was called was more or less intentional really. Cuccos had to plan, Petie needed recover, the others needed to band together, their newfound mortality all too clear. Really, it benefitted everyone. It was just too calm. Psycho didn't like that.

RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - CosmykTheDolfyn - 11-07-2013 So, I now am in posession of a one hour webcam video and a one hour audio file of me reading all of Cuccos lore in a single dry, unrehearsed run. Time for editing and uploading! Here is all the text I read, so you can read along. Also, I don't like the way I got Cucco's voice (that's right, I gave everyone an individual voice) [spoiler] The leader of a well known gaming criminal syndacite, Beardy, returned to his lair in Las Vegas in order to strategize his next move after creating panic in the VGFacts forums over a sex thread, then hastily retreating. Cuccos wasn't going to have any of that, donning her new +5 Admin gear of Administration, she marched into that lair and shot up every last one of those motherlovas. As Beardy was whimpering in a corner after being thoroughly thrashed by the might of Cuccos power, he begged for mercy. Cuccos wasn't going to have any of that either. She stuck a chicken in front of him and forced him to whail on it at gunpoint, so he did. A large rumble could be heard from the earth below, and she briskly made for the door. As Beardy looked out of his penthouse window and saw an army comprised of thousands of Cuccos ready to charge at him, she coldly said: BEWARE OF CUCCOS JiraiyaSanninslunk down the alleyway, raining pouring down like tears from a betrayed and cheated on spouse. He pulled up his black coat a little closer to his face, cigarette in hand, the only light close by. A trusty magnum was in his holster, ready for anything. JiraiyaSannin was the greatest private eye in the land. He was chasing down a very odd lead. He had been hired by a certain bloke named Lazlo (funny name, most certainly an alibi) to hunt down the possible killer of his good pal Beardy. The police were supposed to be on the case, but they were really doing as much as a lazy teenage boy when he gets a new video game. Them pigs didn't have time for no lowly guy like Beardy. The body was the most bizzare he had ever seen. Thousands upon thousands of tiny little peck marks were covering the body like it was swiss cheese. What, or who, had the time and effort to be so ruthless, and kill someone in such a painfully slow way? Who was this Beardy anyway? Questions poured down like the rain. He slung down the cig into a puddle like a baby drops a boring toy. Hands in pockets, he stood motionless. He had a lead. A certain woman, nearly twice his age. A scorned grandmother. He was attempting to find, just where in this city, she would be. Suddenly, a stone flung by his face. He walked slowly over to pick it up. It was no sooner as that when he bent over, he saw hundreds of beaming red eyes at ankle level open in front of him. He quickly read the note on the stone: Beware...
Of... CUCCOS. Two deaths had appeared in the paper recently. People just didn't know what to think of it. Really, it was the strangest thing. The bodies had been found ripped, and punctured by what appeared to be hundreds of poultry. Having reported these stories, Lazlo didn't know what to think. One of those victims was a dear friend of his, and yet he could not explain it. Walking out to his car after work, a strange caw echoed from the dark. He ignored it and carried on to unlock his car. There again it called, as he opened his door, and with a short glance, he spotted two red eyes glaring at him. Frantically slamming his car door and flooring the accelerator, Lazlo turned onto the main road. He just kept going, for fear of the unknown. Quick glances as he went revealed many terrifying things, red eyes, or were they lights? Scratching or was it... a large white feathered bird slammed into his windshield. He got out of his car, checking to see if it was alright, then accessed the damage of his car, a cracked windshield and a bowling ball sized dent in the hood. The chicken got up, unbeknownst to him and called out. Soon the car would be the least of his concerns. BEWARE
OF CUCCOS! How had it gotten so deep? How did this once peaceful forum turn to such anarchy? She remembered the good ol' days, the grandmother jokes, going on about The Legend of Zelda and what not, all of that fun crap she used to be interested in, but now all she's interested in is justice. It all really started pouring down after the Zombie Riot incident, a massive wave of negativity that enveloped every corner of her beloved forum, negative rep and abuse of power everywhere, someone had to stand up to it. Someone had to shed some light on this incident, and while the other warriors of the forums were struggling to defend this most holy of message boards, She and Hexadecimal would end up purging the corruption from the system once and for all, with a little help from the High Lord Admins. They were praised like heroes, given power over their lower forum dwellers, a power that could go to someone's head quite easily. Hexadecimal retired from the game soon after this, keeping its new powers, but restraining itself to posting tired memes and talking about videogames; but Cucco didn't recover from these events so easily. She began on a dark road that night, and now she needed some help. The only place she could turn too was a small Luchador ring downtown, there she could find a friend of the Lightmatt... JiraiyaSannin pulled his eyes open. What were all these bandages? He couldn't see a thing clear. His mouth... Was gone. Flat out gone. He took a look around the room. A bright light was hanging over him. He was laying... in a bed. It was comfortable, at the very least... He rolled his eyes over, to see a figure in dark blue. "Hey jerk, been quite a while". His eyes narrowed with pure disgust. Why in the flying f*** was chris, that so called reformed street punk turned police chief sitting across from him? He would scream obscenities that would make any rapper blush... If he still had his lower jaw. "Hey, just keep quiet. Not that you have any choice, really. We found ya near dead out on Bolar lane" Cingchris threw a newspaper at the near dead carcass of a man beside him. Glancing at the headline "2 dead in freak chicken accident", Jirayia tried to gasp, but clearly couldn't. "Them chickens, they ain't normal. You can't touch them. Even bombs don't leave a mark. They go to town, pecking away flesh like you wouldn't believe. After they left you tore up, they killed a little woman on 3rd street. They also were who killed Beardy. He's who you wanted to find, right?" Jirayia tired to nod his head yes, but a boulder was sitting on him. The pain was like a 2 ton gorilla beating his skull in and then letting the orchestra do a concert in his brain with front row seats. "Listen, when you can write again, we need to know everything you do. We traced it back to this Cuccos dame. She and this Hexadecimal are some wacko vigilantes. We've pulled up so much dirt on this Beardy that she knocked off after his death that you wouldn't believe. They killed the mobster A Zombie Riot." If Jiriya could look back in shock, he would, but sleep was coming over like the last day of life. "I can't be out there. We need more info on HOW those chickens work, and if this Cuccos is on OUR side, or if she's just insane. And I want YOU to be our operative inside her organization once you heal up. We got a guy in there now going under the codename CosmykTheDolfyn, but he's still wet behind the ears." Cingchris looked Jirayia in the eyes for the first time in this whole speech. "I do hope you'll work WITH me again." chris walked out the hospital door, slowly closing it behind him. "I still love you, big bro". A single tear left Jirayia's eyes. As Cuccos approached the decrepit old ring, she remembered how Lightmatt used to be. King of Tex-Mex wrestling circuit of the Canadian Republic of Ohio, nobody could stand up to his pelvic slam attack, nobody. She remembered how he used to bask in the glow of his adoring fans, and now she saw his flabby body struggling to even hit a punching bag. TABbbb"It's been a long time, Matt." she said as she entered the room, taking note of how poorly the entire thing had been maintained. "Too long," Matt responded "Far too long. You still keep in touch with any of the old gang?" "Not except for Hex, and he's been offline for a month. How's about you?" she said coldly, clearly trying to rebound the question instead of facing its implications. "Only one I keep around is CosmykTheDolfyn, remember that rookie? He wasn't that great of a poster, but he's a damn good assistant." He said, whistling and beckoning for a doorway in the back of the room she hadn't noticed upon entering. A shorter man wearing a Dolphin hat approached Lightmatt with a bottle of water and some pills. "Those prescription?" Cuccos asked, already knowing the answer. "There were for someone." He responded, downing four and giving the bottle back to the kid. Something seemed a off about the kid, but she didn't know what. TABbbb"So, what brings you back here?" Matt asked as the kid ran back to his chambers. "I'm looking for some help, do you still have the info on the rest of the old forum members?" she said. "Of course, well, the ones who are still alive anyways, although I'm going to have to ask for something in return." "What the hell Matt, I thought we were friends!" She said, astonished at the statement. "You gotta understand something Cuccos, after Nappa died in that combination train accident/speed boat romp/gunshot wound/orphan rescue/elephant trampoline mishap, I've gotta be more careful with this stuff. You never know who could get a hold of it." "Fine, take this necklace" she halfheartedly stated, removing the Triforce necklace she always wore. "Now, give me SERIOUSLY THOUGH's file."TABbbbAfter leaving with the information she needed, Cuccos pulled another necklace out of her bag, which was apparently full of fake golden triforce necklaces. She chuckled at Matt's misfortune, thinking that nobody was watching. Unannounced to her, up above there was a very specific Nappa who had possessed one of her chickens, and he was not as amused. Cuccos sat on her throne. Or call it a throne. Try a rusted lawn chair out in this heat. But, it DID have a TWO cup holders, both occupied. Nothing to help one think about the next target like a bottle of scotch AND a dark lager. Ok, maybe that was a really bad combo. But, it was a looooooonnnng day. She had to return these forums to sanity. It was her only dream. But, HOW can an insane person cause sanity to be brought about? She took another healthy swallow of scotch, and then followed the firewater down with the lager. Bad combo, long day, etc etc etc... She pet her chicken very comfortably. It was such a cute little guy, hard to believe he was so deadly. His eyes were the calm blue at this moment in time... But not allcould be so calm. A shadow, a ghost, was lingering. And he was coming ever closer as she pushed the call button for Hexadecimal. She needed the power to wipe it all out and restart.... Miles away, the demented doctor was hard at work. JiraiyaSannin was healed up enough to get out of the hospital. Check that, bust his way out of high security and out the 10th window of the hospital while still missing a leg and a mouth. He was tired of playing middle man, and he only knew one man who could understand mechanics so well as to understand the power of those Cuccos... And he wanted that power for himself. BumbleBeeCody was beyond just an insane scientist, he was the most wanted man in all of Factland. He didn't make any bones about it. Heck, he still wore the handcuffs and the striped shirt because he was so proud of his cruel experimentation on both man and beast. And Jiraiya had sought him out. After it was said and done, who could no what was the man and what was the machine. A retractable sword arm, a leg with an AK-47 attachment, a radar detection system jaw. Jiraiya needed a new identity so as not to be recognized. He was now Ken. Simply Ken. And he was going to become Cuccos personal assistant, per little brother's request. SERIOUSLY THOUGH was enjoying a nice year-old cup of tea he had found on the ground when Raiden Blackwood smashed through his beloved doorway. "That was my favorite door you treacherous whore." he said, followed by a cliche yet nonetheless bad ass chair swivel to face his new guest. After the Zombie Riot incident occurred, SERIOUSLY had not gotten off as easily as the rest. You see, Zombie Riot wasn't usually too evil, he used to be a respected moderator back in the glory days of VGFacts and even in the ancient times of the elder forum. He was part of a triad, Zombie Riot, SERIOUSLY THOUGH and BumblebeeCody, moderators of the land, their jobs were to keep order and tranquility in the forums. The problem with order is that too much can drive a man out of order, into the cold, child molesting hands of insanity. Zombie had snapped, lashing out viciously and causing massive rifts between other users and himself. Cody, SERIOUSLY's friend and ally, tried to stop it, but Zombie just ended up driving him insane. SERIOUSLY THOUGH himself barely made it out of the rampage alive, his body gave out after it had taken too much damage. At that point, the only thing he could think about was the good old days, when he talked about trivia with his friends and had a small Asian child take off sunglasses over dramatically. That single happy thought kept him going, he crawled as miserably and painfully as anyone has ever crawled to the nearest forum machine and posted an S.O.S. That's when the new moderators came into the picture. After everything had blown over, Hexadecimal and Beware of Cuccos were the new kids on the street, and everyone was focusing on them, even going to lengths to post fake stories of their heroic exploits (SHIT THAT'S META). SERIOUSLY's broken body had recovered after a while, and he had gotten out of the hospital a few days after the Beardy hit. He had a roommate in there, but apparently his mouth and lower jaw had been ravaged by some monster or something, so there wasn't much discussion on that front. Now he sat in his moderator's chair in the ruins of the Locked section of the Elder Forum, or as it was known in its time, the Did You Know Gaming forums. After everything and everyone had been converted to VGFacts, this old place died out and was eventually shut down. He had come here to see if he could find any remnants of the old days, all he had managed to pick up so far was the original thread, the Locked thread wherein one user posted "First" and was promptly shunned by the entire population, his name lost, a relic of ages past. The only other thing he saw was the doorway, and now even that was gone, just like everyone he ever loved. "Dammit man, knock that rhyming shit off! We gotta get you to safety!" Raiden said, he was a tall man with a dark, luxurious beard. It's rumored that if his beard is destroyed, so is his life force. "Who would want me, as decrepit as I be?" SERIOUSLY responded, only muttering quietly in forced rhymes. "SHE would want you, and she would want your head on a fucking stick, so let's move!" he replied, his nervousness was apparent from his worried facial expression and the puddle underneath him that wasn't there when he came in. "Who is this SHE, and why might she want me?" SERIOUSLY replied, his swollen face darkening with each syllable. "The old lady with the chickens, she's going mad man, after the Beardy hit she just started killing everyone. Berry's out, Jiraiya showed up in an alleyway without even a fucking mouth left, and now she's coming for you." he said, now holding his pistol to the door, waiting for someone to try to sneak in. "How do you know FohShnickity Mo?" SERIOUSLY questioned, slowly meandering towards the door. "DID YOU SERIOUSLY JUST USE FOUR-TIME GRAMMY WINNING ARTIST FOHSHNICKITY IN YOUR FORCED FUCKING RHYME? Dammit man, I've got a guy working with Lightmatt, and he says that SHE came by asking for information on you, now I'll answer your questions later, let's move!" And with that, they left the old forum for one last time. Scanning the sky as the walked out, Raiden let out a sigh of relief. "Good, that old bag hasn't found us yet, we gotta get to safety." he said, pulling up his motorized tricycle and sitting SERIOUSLY THOUGH in the sidecar with a majestic sky dolphin painted on it. As they pulled out, one very specific Cucco watched them, perched atop the Clocktower. "It's nearly time." he said, apparently to himself. "Activate the countdown." Jiraiya got gang green, and the AK-47 leg had to be removed. BumbleBeeCody had re-attached some regular prosthetic now, but it was an incredibly strong shield. Perhaps as strong as the Cuccos skin. Looking down at the situation still, a certain space cow felt rather ill, for chaos had been sown whilst he'd been away, and all without him having stay. "Was it not my job to cause such chaos? Was it not my job to activate this mental haze? After all, I'm the insane extraterrestrial rib eye. Why does it seem now as I'm the only one sane?" were his thoughts as he took to his gaze. Really, for him, it was all quite a daze. "Maybe, Cuccos will know what is up." he said to himself as he approached the chaotic muck. After all, she had been so close, or maybe Nappa, though he was a ghost. Raiden and SERIOUSLY THOUGH were riding over the overpass now in Raiden's motorized tricycle, Raiden still wary of possible observers, SERIOUSLY sitting in the sidecar, mumbling something about oranges unintelligibly. The tricycle, while fast, was noticeably loud, the engine was spitting pixels everywhere. "Piece of shit," Raiden grumbled in a grumbled fashion "I'm prayin' to space cow that this thing holds together until we get to the compound, how're you hanging in?" SERIOUSLY mumbled something about bananas now, moving up in the fruit-tier ladder. "Dammit man, why do you always talk in those stupid fucking rhymes anyways?" Raiden asked, obviously irritated with the absurdity of it. SERIOUSLY snapped at this point, not mentally or as severely as the other mods, but nonetheless he snapped at his driver. "Why, why do I bear this curse? It's is because of that HAG and her filthy fucking purse! That monster and her warped bag of tricks, never removing those chickeny kicks. SHE caused this atrocity, SHE's ravaged this city! She needs to be stopped, she needs to be banned, Her head to be lopped and her ass too be canned!" he screamed, disorienting Raiden and almost causing a tricycle accident on the bridge. "Shit man, quiet down, they might hear you!" he respond, but it was too late. The roar could be heard from
miles away, at first it was only a few bloodcurdling screeches, then they turned into thousands. An enormous wave of the most ungodly, primal screams you've ever heard. Then the shock wave, looking behind him, Raiden saw one of the most horrifying sights he'd ever seen. An enormous flock of Cuccos flying towards them at breakneck speeds down the bridge. "Shit!" Raiden exclaimed, "Keep low and brace for impact!" SERIOUSLY barely heeded this information in time, ducking just as a Cucco whizzed right over his head. There were Cuccos coming from the sides at this time in addition to the massive wave straight behind them, Cuccos from every corner of the city were flocking to them, SERIOUSLY had become a beacon (OH THE PUNS) for the entire species. "It's right over the brid--- SHIT!" Raiden yelled. The bridge had been sliced,
a clean cut right through the center, and the compound was on the other side. At this point, I find it wise to inform the reader that this bridge was a good 126 feet above ground in the city, and decrepit as it was, it had held up without issue for years. Someone cut this massive concrete bridge on purpose. There was a diagonal piece
of plywood facing the gap. "Hold on man!" Raiden screamed, the Cuccos gaining on them. Lining up his tricycle to the ramp, he charged it at full speed, screaming something akin to "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHGGGGGGG" while approaching it, launching his magical friendship bike over the gap, steering them to safety within the shelter and enjoying a nice s'mores upon arrival. Hah, I'm just messing with
you, no they missed. Horribly. Raiden HAD successfully
launched his scooter off of the plank, but for those of you without a comprehension of the basic laws of physics, in a nutshell, they don't work like this. They smashed into the
ground, thankfully the tricycle's Ford Patented safety bubble™ prevented the impact from obliterating
their spinal cords on impact. That being said, Raiden's legs were in no condition to walk, and SERIOUSLY had to drag him out of the wreckage. They were under the bridge
now, SERIOUSLY had hid with Raiden inside of a dark sewer grate, laying Raiden's body in the shit stream on the ground next to him, letting him soak in the wonderful flavor rest. This was all happening while
Jiraiya was walking nearby, he preferred to stick to the low ground ever since the incident, since Cuccos mainly preferred to patrol the skies. His new implants allowed him to sense Tricycles in danger from miles away, so he was able to find the crash, and with the trail of urine, find Raiden and SERIOUSLY hiding in the gutter. SERIOUSLY saw him come in,
this cyborg without a fucking mouth, and showed little reaction. He recognized him as Jiraiya from the earlier days of the forum, and figured that if this guy was going to kill them, he would've done it already. Jiraiya just sat there looking at them for a while, then SERIOUSLY let out a chuckle. "You were my roommate, weren't you chick-bait?" he said, now laughing audibly. The joke wasn't even that good, and he knew it, but dammit the coincidental nature of it was palatable. Jiraya started chuckling at this too, or at least his horrific, mouthless version of a chuckle. Even Raiden, barely conscious, started cracking up. Everyone was laughing now, seriously, it was hilarious, he happened to get a roomate who happened to be an old friend who happened to track them down to their very hiding spot! It was a riot! "Wait a sec, what the
feck." SERIOUSLY THOUGH suddenly said, all traces of humor gone from his expression. "This isn't right, this is too much, someone's here to fight, and he doesn't drive clutch." "What do *COUGH SOUND EFFECT* you mean, man?" Raiden managed, still in terrible pain , but awake nonetheless. "It's too perfect, too clean, something here is mean. He found us, he did, in this remote sewer of horse sid. Someone wanted us all here, oh dear, oh dear." SERIOUSLY managed, crawling towards the grate. Trying to re-open it, unsuccessfully. "Oh crap, Jiraiya activated the trap." SERIOUSLY said again, as a pair of yellow, mechanical eyes became visible through the darkness in the back of the sewer. "Who, who wanted us in this very spot, just so all of us could get shot?" He struggled again as the eyes grew in intensity. "Sir Petie?" A
short guy in spandex nervously asked after entering an office high rise. "Yes retrolink, what is it?" The figure responded, puffing on a cigar as he did "The... the three are all ready, shall we begin the extraction?" retrolink said, shaking even more nervously in preparation for the answer. "Yes, begin the
cingchris was adjusting the badge onprocedure, we need that specimen before she can get her stinky chicken-licking hands on him." Petie answered, looking out of the window of Petie Brand Bridge Explosives, Remote Sewer Grate Maintenance and Light Sundries™ his shirt, waiting every moment for the call. It had been seven long days since they had last contact with their undercover agent. The tension was so thick in the air, almost like the steam when someone takes a really hot shower for much too long of a time. "MexicanAnime, please turn up the signal" he moaned, as he was clumsily paying with his tie. "Ehh, whenever you say boss." Anime was a slow moving guy who never noticed a thing. But somehow, he really knew how to cut all these computer stuff (well, he WAS the IT guy of the Police team). Not only that, but was he a great translator. He could even interpret Beiber Fever girls and swag douchiness texts messages into pure Kvlt metal guitar riffs. And, he was a very hard worker. Nothing phased him. You held him up at gunpoint, and he'd just sigh, sip on some more coffee and keep typing, like he was detached from the rest of the world. It was of course he that figured out the cryptic message. CosmykTheDolfyn was supposed to check in every four days with base, but they had only recieved one encoded message. Several hours of work had revealed only a date and time... Which was two minutes from now. cingchris knew this info was only meant for a few eyes, so only he and his trusty IT man sat in the room. Suddenly, the viewing screen buzzed to a grainy life. cingchris jumped quicker than a starving wolf when it sees fresh, unguarded meat. "I'm sorry sir, I was just testing the frequency." "Anime, you nearly scared the life out of me. Tell me when we're live." A giant thump was heard. Suddenly, a roof pile dropped down. "We're LLLLLLLLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEE right now". The sound came shrieking like a banshee. Suddenly, the cuccos queen dropped down herself by wire, holding a sobbing fat kid in one arm. cingchris reeled in shock. "Cosmyk, what have they done to you!" Cuccos just laughed sinisterly. "Seriously cingchris, if you send in someone undercover, don't let him paint sky dolphins on everything he owns, especially getaway vehicles. He's in with you, SERIOUSLY, Raiden, Jiaraya and all of them, ain't he? I knew something was odd about this kid." "Please don't hurt him. He's of no concern to you. He's merely a rookie". "Hurt him? Oh pleeeeaaase. I wanted him as a ransom. This little guy is just too cute anyway. Have you seen his selfies?" CosmykTheDolfyn was getting a little better. "Boss, please just forget about me. I'll be fine. Just complete the mission. And anime, I heard you open that knife. Don't do it." It was true, Mexican Anime had a knife in hand. But, he didn't put it down. In fact he didn't acknowledge a thing had happened. He took off a shoe and began picking out his toenails with the blade. "Chris, I'm shocked at your recruits. Just amazing." Chris shrugged at that. "Listen to me, since you won't do anything yourself. In one week, I will need the GIF repository. Don't do it, you'll have a nice pair of dolfyn testicles on a necklace on your door in the morning. Got it?" "Why in the world do you need all those GIFs for, Cuccos?" ''Cuccos seductively chewed her nails. "Oh, a girl has to keep her secrets." And in a flash, her line zipped her away, unseen. "Oh, and just a warning. BEWARE OF CUCCOS" A single cuccos dropped from the ceiling, a single piece of lit dynamite in it's mouth. "MEXICANANIME, LET'S MOVE!!!" Anime walked over to the cuccos and lit his cigar from the dynamite's fuse. cingchris ran as quick as his legs would take him. Tackling MexicanAnime, the two tumbled out the window as the explosion took out the upper floor. "Don't worry Boss, we were only 7 stories up. I lost my cigar though." "I thought I told you no smoking inside" cingchris muttered as he tensed for impact. Seeing friends of his falling to the ground from the explosion, Psycho whizzed down in a wisp like form, catching them with his aura, or his back, whatever worked really. "I'm gone for a few weeks and you guys start killing each other or something?" Psycho questioned as he flipped upside down, three feet from the ground putting the others on the ground. "Honestly, they say I'M insane," Cow muttered, turning to see Cuccos in the distance. Before the others could say anything, he darted off in her direction yelling "Sorry guys, I gotta inquire about the situation,". What could this all be about, he wondered. Surely an admin would know, after all, that was their job. So, he followed Cuccos, pursuing her to the pets thread. "and what of the others?" Psycho asked Cuccos, in bewilderment to her actions. "Why have you done such things to them Cuccos?". His gaze setting like the distant stars you only think are still there. They were on top of a rather large building, The Hexidecimal Foundation for the Ethical Exposition of Animals. With the dark night winds raging, and hellish thunder brewing in the clouds, no mere mortal could simply stand and converse on such a large tower. Yet, these two were not mortal. "Its been chaos for too long now, and the root of chaos is these people, Space. Its my job to bring order to these forums now, and I intend on doing it," Cuccos yelled, only barely out-sounding the gale. "and who gave you this authority Cuccos? Look, I may be insane, but that don't mean I ain't got morals. They're just cow ones, and cows don't like farmers. You're sounding like a farmer Cuccos. I don't want this to be an Animal Farm!" he replied somewhat haphazardly. He broke out into a gut wrenching cackle as lightning struck the antenna behind him. "I don't like this Cuccos, I really don't, and I'm sorry," Psycho cried, not in a yelling sense but with actual tears, out taking hold of her shoulder, preparing to never let go. As it turns out, despite being an ever powerful space fairing bovine, Psycho did not have thumbs so as to allow him to hold onto Cuccos. I guess being psychotic makes you forget about hooves don't it? Still, he continued to grapple at Cuccos, following her where she went without much success, folllowing her to the great archive to Human appearance, http://www.vgfacts.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=22. "Cuccos, this isn't going to end well, and you know it," Psycho uttered as they entered. He was starting to feel more like one of the Legend of Zelda fairies then anything else. "Listen here, Psycho. If this chaos is going to end, I've got to know who sits as the root," Cucs coughed, having lost her voice with hours of restless conversation with Cow. Going down the great marble halls of the holy to human archives, she turned to the tomb of the founders, Diyuknga, Petie, ODazzius and Robiacus. Little did PsychoSpaceCow, know however, what Petie was still doing. That the tomb, the memorial was all a fake. After all, one hundred years had passed since the founders rose. Nobody may have known exactly what happened to them all, but Petie would be well over 150 years old now, as he was the oldest, most wise of the founders. But, that was not the case. Petie stood straight up right, a living relic, a monument of awesomeness. He was the last one still living. His mechanical heart beat firm under the plyo-skin... Man, this stuff looked really real. It was so much better than the first batch they had made for him, 30 years ago. Petie's massive brain power was still his greatest strength. But, he needed new designs for this body of his if he wanted to remain so active and keep running triathlons under the pseudonym of Jorge Tobias. Underneath, down in the sewers, the yellow eyes lurched forward into life, like a first time lover being jerky in his movements as he tried to figure out what in the world he should do in the bedroom. Jirayia and SERIOUSLY stood up, as if ready to tackle the beast. Raiden did his best to look menacingly at it and flip it the bird. The beast was nothing more than a robot, only a measly 10 feet high, with several dozen drills, saws, and other things popping out in all sorts of random places. "Aw man, all it is a giant can! I'll bust it up like a good neighbor, don't want any payment for the fruits of my hard labor!" SERIOUSLY THOUGH was still speaking in rhyme, which actually, makes one appear more Seuss like than assassin-esque. A radio speaker blared to life out of the machine. "Jirayia, SERIOUSLY and Raiden. How awfully kind of you to join me today. I hope that this transaction will go as smoothly as possible for all involved. I want you all still alive at the end of this..." Raiden pulled a magnum out of his pocket, heaving his body like a walrus that swimming gracefully one moment then suddenly wound up on dry ground when a submarine surfaced underneath it. "WHO are YOU, and WHAT do you want from US?" "Ahhhhhhh, it's none other than your GOD, YOUR FOUNDER. I am the one and only Petie!" Jiariaya laughed. "Aren't you a little old to be chasing us pups around? Whaddya want?" A view screen popped out of the monster's chest. An incredibly, amazingly handsome man's face with flowing golden brown hair was on, with a scared assistant trembling behind him. "Ah well, I guess it's hard to believe I am so old. This synthetic skin is getting better every day. I look BEAUTIFUL. But, I have a slight issue. I am indeed 150 years old, but I want to be made EVEN better. And that's where you all come in..." Raiden set down his gun. "Ok, let me hear what you need from us. If it ain't too bad, I don't mind striking up a deal." "Good good. You see, despite HOW stunning I am, I can no longer grow a beard. I just can't do it. I want your beard, Raiden. So it can forever illuminate my face. And Jirayia, I understand that your new leg is nearly invincible, just a Cuccos? My skin rips all the time now. I want your leg so I can build better skin. And oh, SERIOUSLY, there's this new fangled thing the kids do called rapping or tapping or fapping or something like that, but understand you need to rhyme to do it. I want to prove to them whippersnappers I still got it, and if I lay down some great beats and some good lines, I can do it. I was hoping to extract your brain out and compliment it to mine. Oh, we'll make a great team. And retrolinx even made me a new, synthetic brain we can replace your old one with! What do you guys all say? I can trade you guys for a new motorcycle and putting the bridge back in... Do we have a deal?" SERIOUSLY began to shriek. "HERE, I THOUGHT THIS GUY WAS LEGIT. ALL HE REALLY IS UNFIT. NOW LISTEN HERE, YOU BALL OF LARD! I'LL BEAT YOUR HEAD SO YOU GO FULL TARD! YOU MAY SEE YOURSELF AS SOME NEW AGE WIZARD, BUT YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND MY BLIZZARD!" And with that, the machine charged forward. But, in no short amount of time, Jiraiya shot a flare at the ship. A saw came flying off, knocking a hole in the wall out of the sewers to freedom. Using his trusty hookshot/sword arm, Jiraiya quickly swung to the outside world, carrying Raiden in his other hand. SERIOUSLY grabbed onto his pants, and thanks to the fact that Jiraiya likes to dress nice and wear a good belt, they didn't come off, and all three made it out. Petie slammed down his fist on his console. Retrolinx stepped forward. "Sir, I do think they have escaped from us." "You don't think I haven't seen that? Maybe, with my influence, I will be able to convince the Cuccos to join my side. After all, who doesn't trust a founder? After we crush these fools, I will use my superior intelligence to overthrow her and re-establish myself as the true ruler. But, for now, we must wait." Ok sir, but please, BEWARE OF CUCCOS. "You know what interests me the most about these places Cuccos?" Psy spat looking back as he examined a painting of Petie the wise. She didn't respond, and to be fair, they were both somewhat sick of each other, with Cow going on and on, and Cuccos still being evil. "Whenever they do these portraits and write these articles, no one quite gets it right. I've been around a long time, saw the days when this place's foundations were set, by old Diyuknga in fact. Petie and his tribe took to the foundation and agreed with Ol' Diyu for a portion of the territory, a merger of cultures they called it. Didn't much see Diyu much anymore though he still appeared from time to time, he always seemed rather, lonely I guess you could say. I can't much blame him really, it wasn't his show anymore. See, I mention this, because at the time, Petie tried to unify things, bring order, had some insane virtue to preserve time as it stood, probably from fear of death. It didn't end well. That's why -" ... In the time he explained an example of history repeating itself, Cuccos had walked off on her own. He just shook his head and gazed into that picture, looking behind Petie's shoulder. "I guess these people just don't listen very well," he murmered to himself. "Tell me about it," came a familiar voice, a ghost from the past. It was nighttime and a storm was raging on atop the tall buildings not too far away. The man had just finished watching Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead for the third time and was taking a walk outside to clear his mind of undead fowl. He hoped the growling thunder would die down before it reached his cottage, the last storm had done enough damage to his yard as it was. Lost in his thoughts the man took a wrong turn and found himself walking on the forest path leading to the nearby lake. Not really minding the path he had taken he continued onwards in hopes of catching a glimpse of the beautiful full moon adorning the night sky above the water. Thankfully it was not covered by the dark clouds that were now left far behind. What, however, had not been left far behind, were red feverish eyes that gleamed in the darkness of the thick foliage. When he was nearing the end of the path he started thinking about his old friends, all the people back in the Forums. Whatever had happened to them since everything went wrong? The man wasn't aware of the turn for the worse as he had not been in contact with those people for what felt like forever. Just as the lake came into his vision his thoughts were interrupted by the rustling from the bushes by the path. He prepared to encounter a wild animal when out came a... chicken? Why on earth was a chicken there? Having never played Legend of Zelda in his life, the person started towards the creature not aware of the imminent danger he was in. "How did you get all the way out here little buddy?" Before he could continue he stopped in his tracks when he saw dozens upon dozens pairs of eyes shining in the moonlit growth. "What the..?" And that was all he was able to utter when the white, bloodthirsty avians flocked from the bushes and covered his body, tearing away with their sharp beaks and claws. After a while, the night was silent again. Left on the road lied the man, motionless. The cuccos seemed to have spared him apart from one thing. They had literally pecked his face off in one piece and taken it with them. This was a massively distracting sight. Many days had past and a stark confusion had fallen upon the land. Psycho and Ghost had been reunited and promptly plotted for a way to deal with Cuccos, but she was nowhere to be found. It would take the resurgence of one man to stir the tide, and that man was ,figuratively speaking, A Zombie Riot. Riot, the man of fallen hour had risen again after hearing of the misdeeds of Cuccos. He would not beware, and yet things were still now, as they were before the great tide of change, so no one acted, and justice was left unanswered. After all, who better to scare off a Cucco than a Cucco? Jumping out of the sewer and running at breakneck pace, SERIOUSLY THOUGH and Jiraya ran towards the city, hoping to flee the robot Petie had sent to escort themselves to his corporation. Making off towards the city, SERIOUSLY made a stunning observation, "Wait a second, if that thing was beckoned, why isn't it following us and your oozing pile of puss?" he stated to Jiraya, looking back towards the sewer grate and noticing a distinct lack of bloodthirsty robot behind them. Jiraya, using his new Mattel brand voice chip, had his speakers say in the perfect innocent teddy bear voice "I love you! No wait, fuck that. RAIDEN!" he screamed in all of his murderous cyborg assassin cuteness. They ran back towards the pipe and the robot was hunched over Raiden. With Petie still plastered on the screen, he began talking in his undeniably sexy voice. "Just give me the beard Raiden, it will be nice and easy." he said in a cool tone. Lying there helpless against an armed android, still horribly injured, Raiden looked over to SERIOUSLY THOUGH and Jiraya, seeing them watch in helpless terror. After noticing that they came back, Raiden chucked and, mustering all of his strength, uttered one last bearded proclimation. "Go fuck yourself, Petie. Or do you not have a dick for that anymore my sweetie?" With that abysmal rhyme, Raiden was done. Pulling out his magnum with surprising swiftness, Raiden shot at a structural weakpoint in the ceiling, causing the tunnel to collapse on the both of them. SERIOUSLY THOUGH just stood there, motionless. No rhymes, no muttering, nothing. Jiraya had to physically grab him and carry him out of there. "Let's be best friends! God dammit, come on. We need to find some of the others before they get picked off too." Looking over the collapsed pipe, a man with very peculiar taste in masks bent down over the corpse and picked off a nice sample of beard hairs. Many weeks passed. Many a man fell under the radar. The coming weeks would fall silent. Psycho would encounter Jiraiya once, and he conferred his knowledge. The Cucco was genetically cloned. They were literally all the same. [i]The great break as it was called was more or less intentional really. Cuccos had to plan, Petie needed recover, the others needed to band together, their newfound mortality all too clear. Really, it benefitted everyone. It was just too calm. Psycho didn't like that.

RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - CosmykTheDolfyn - 11-07-2013 Thank you. I'd say I felt the best with cingchris's voice, but I really enjoyed doing psychospacecow. It was so hard to transition voices that quickly though. There was a time I seriously considered voice acting as a profession, but it seems to be very difficult to get into, so I never tried. And, I don't have that great of a range of voices either. The jingling noises was my dog's collar, btw. And there is no easy I can post the full video on my home internet, my upload speed is too slow. RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Psychospacecow - 11-07-2013 I sound good. You sound good. RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Hexadecimal - 11-07-2013 Anyone remember the movie Sandlot? I'm thinking it would be hilarious to make a Cuccos parody out of the "Legend of the Beast" story. RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Psychospacecow - 11-08-2013 Psycho sat still at the sight of such uneasy peace. He didn't quite know what to think. It was neither chaotic or friendly. This was bad. So, being the thing that he embodied in name, he set out to find Jiraiya, and forged a cucco killing disease. The fact that cuccos were cloned meant their genetic diversity was nill. They would all fall to the same disease, like bananas.

RE: Official "Beware of Cuccos" Lore Thread - Arjahn - 08-12-2014 SERIOUSLY and Jiraya were lost, broken and despaired. The Raiden incident had only happened a few hours ago, but to them it seemed like at least nine months COUGH COUGH. "Water, I need water if this day is walk is to be any longer." SERIOUSLY said, dragging his charred legs on the crumbling husk of a roadway. "ACCORDING TO MY COOLMAPS 4 KIDS!™ PROGRAM, WE'RE STILL WITHIN THE OUTER LIMITS OF THE FORUM." Jiraya exclaimed in his newly-Hawkened voice pack. All around them, sporatic bits of text and pixels could be seen whizzing around in bizarre directions. "Hey Jiraya," SERIOUSLY began, "According to this flya', someone posted about DRM servers hosted. Sim City? Well that sounds downright shitty. What's the haps with all of these screen caps?". "I DO NOT KNOW" Jiraya exclaimed with a sigh of either Mid-90's alternative rock or disappointment. "WAIT, I HAVE LOCATED A TAPE WITH INFORMATION ON THE FORUM STRUCTURE, PERHAPS IT COULD PROVIDE SOME CLARITY." The synthetic creature reached into his kneecap, seemingly feeling no pain from the motion, and produced a cassette tape labled "Forum Origins/Turtle Mating Rituals". The second he popped it into his lower spinal column, a routine procedure of course, a static-sounding news reel began to play through the speakers located in Jiraya's left ass cheek and right face cheek accordingly. "More on the tragic ThePlainGamer murder-suicide at eleven. On a slightly brighter note, we now turn our faces towards this proud forums half-quarter birthday. Head Anchor ShadeDBZ has the story" a female newscaster read with discernibly false interest in the matter. "Thanks Tigerlilly, now we all know that the VGFacts forum has a proud history of people kind of talking about videogames and mostly complaining about remakes and why EA is almost as bad as Hitler, but what many of us don't know, is how the forums structure themselves. As you can see by this hastily constructed news graphic, as new posts are created, old ones are shoved outwards, creating the Forum Circles. Take, for example, one of the earlier posts in which this weirdo with a Furret avatar whined about the forum colors. Sure it started out in the Alpha Circle, when the forums were first created and just about anything could make it to the top, but as time moves on and the public's focus shifts to hilarious comics about Nintendo characters, this old post needs to be put out to pasture, otherwise the circles would become clogged and unstable. Thankfully, city engineer and renowned bridge demolisher Petie devised an ingenious method of organizing these would-be obstacles. Now whenever a new post is created, a specialized team of officials rates the content, determining its potential for discussion and placing it in its appropriate circle. Fantastic posts, such as Petie Gets Married or Bridge Demolition 101 with Petie guest starring Christian Slater with great promises for discussion are obviously placed in the Alpha Circle. Alright posts, such as Check out this Zelda thing! or What's your favorite game/movie/protagonist/antagonist/user/bathrobe/fruit/person/religiousoligarchy... with moderate potential for discussion, are placed in Circle 2. Posts with very little potential, such as "Did nintendo really kill my dad and if not why won't dad come home :( are sorted into The Circle The Third; and garbage posts with spam or complete nonsense, such as Help I think Petie sent his goons to my house and The sorting system is rig---- are placed in Quadrilateral Circle." "Thanks to this brilliant method of filtering content, the Administrators can easily allocate resources to appropriately buzzing portions of the forums, saving users on both time and hassle. With the 7:37 News at Eleven, I'm I.C. Weiner." he finished, taking an enormous gulp of air. "Thanks Dick, next up, is Cancer really that bad if you get a cool haircut with it? The answer may surprise you!" BZZZT. Jiraya popped out the tape, carefully placing it back in the porno-stash located behind his patella. " Well that would explain it, at least a tid bit." SERIOUSLY began with another terrific line, "We're in the outermost circle, torn and in shambles. With nothing but old post about Urkle and Donkey Kong's Brambles". They began to take in their surroundings more thoroughly now, decrepit buildings and poorly maintained roads as far as the eye (or robotic magic eight ball socket for that matter) could see. The grim dust of desolation and poverty coated everything in a grime of despair, broken street signs in the lawns of houses with boarded windows. "Geeze, everyone must've bolted from here like mucus from a sneeze." SERIOUSLY remarked, taking in a breath of oily air. "CONFIRMED, NO LIFE SIGNS DETECTED WITHIN RANGE. NO HUMANS, ASTRONOMIC BOVINES OR CUCCOS." Jiraya remarked after his WondeRadar™ had completed its scan. They continued down the road in relative silence for hours, making idle chit chat about Pokemon and the ethical ramifications of removing Jiraya's soul from his corporeal being, when all of a sudden the cyborg's patented Mountain Dew Skeleton-Locator™ began to buzz "Woah dude, looks like someone forgot to take his daily dose of vitamin-DEW!" the ad said, pointing towards a decrepit pink house. While the exterior of the building looked like some humorous analogy for poop, with graffiti spelling out "FURRET LOV3R" encompassing the walls, the inside was quite the refreshing change in atmosphere. It was fairly clean and sterile, you know, aside from the rotting corpse on the ground next to a plate of some delicious pastry. "Oh my, looks as though someone had a little too much pie" SERIOUSLY said, leaning in to examine the body. Jiraya, meanwhile, wandered through the house, which was surprisingly barren for how well maintained it appeared to be. As he meandered from room to useless room, he finally reached the master bedroom, and on the bed layed an enormous leather-bound book with a red, ominous comic-sans title.
