The day started out as any other day and where it was a Saturday so it would be relaxing but not for long for our adventurers or at least one of them. At the Fudo house, a familiar strong warlock with long hair came out of the linen closet which informed Atticus, Mo, Cherry, and Patch that he had something important to say.

"There's nothing ever good on TV anymore..." Cherry said as she flipped through the TV with the remote.

"Uh, Cherry, we have company." Mo said as she saw Drell coming in.

Cherry looked over, then looked back before yelping and falling out of her chair.

"You okay?" Patch asked.

"I'll live..." Cherry muffled before sitting up. "All right, what's up?" she then asked.

"I'm here for Atticus." Drell said.

"Take him away," Cherry pointed to Atticus in random blame. "It was all his fault."

"We don't even know why he's here." Atticus said.

"I'm here to send you to a different Earth where you'll possibly meet your match for once in your lifetime other than your one of your children in the future." Drell said.

"Wait... What?" Atticus asked.

"Drell, no one likes riddles, what you said made no sense." Cherry said.

"Atticus, I'm sending you to a different Earth and where you'll meet your match in strength there," Drell said. "And don't worry, he's a good guy."

"Oh... Okay..." Atticus said, now understanding. "Um... A different earth?"

"Let's just say you shouldn't have a 'cow' or a 'beef' with this brave 'moo' world." Drell said before laughing at his own puns.

The others just looked at him, not laughing at his jokes.

"Really?" Drell asked.

Patch let out a small cough.

"Um, okay, anyway... When does he leave?" Mo asked the warlock.

"Right away." Drell said.

"Why do you do this to us?" Atticus groaned. "Do you put everything at the last minute?"

"Maybe." Drell said.

Atticus shook slightly with frustration.

"Go ahead and get ready..." Drell told him. "I'll wait for you with your little friends."

Atticus just sighed and went to his room to get ready for his new adventure.


After getting ready, the group went to meet up with Drell.

"All right, I guess I'm ready..." Atticus said. "But Drell... With all due respect... CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THESE THINGS BEFORE YOU MAKE THEM HAPPEN?!"

"Maybe." Drell said which just annoyed them.

"So how does Atticus get there?" Cherry asked.

"Oh, dear sweet Cherry~..." Drell cooed, pinching her cheek before letting go. "Simple, he goes through a special door in the Netherworld."

"Uh...?" Patch blinked in confusion.

"Follow me..." Drell groaned and led them to a hallway with many doors which was like Princess Luna's walkway through the Dream Realm.

"Um, which door does he have to go through, because there are a lot of doors." Mo said.

"Right this way..." Drell said as he led the way and opened one door. "Behold!"

"SHUT THE DOOR!" A woman's voice shrieked in anger.

Drell then shut the door nervously and then opened another door. "I meant this one." He soon opened the door to show them an Old Western world.

"Ooh... The Wild West..." Cherry said before yawning out of boredom.

"This is where you're going..." Drell told Atticus. "They call it Moo Mesa."

"Cool." Atticus smiled.

Cherry snored as she sounded bored already. Patch then let out a loud bark.

"NORMANDY!" Cherry cried out before looking miserable.

"Anyway... You'll meet the Wild West Cowboys," Drell continued to tell Atticus. "Marshal Moo Montana, The Dakota Dude, and Cowlorado Kid."

"Awesome," Atticus smiled. "So which one of them is my match in strength?"

"That would be Dakota," Drell replied. "He's the muscle of the group, and he's actually pretty calm and barely gets mad."

"That's good." Atticus said.

"So, ya think you're ready?" Drell asked.

"You're gonna push me in whether I am or not, are you?" Atticus deadpanned.

"Yep." Drell smirked as he pushed Atticus in.

"Whoa!" Atticus yelped at the sudden pushing.

"You should be used to this by now!" Drell called out before laughing and walking away, shutting the door behind him, also before throwing out some luggage to Atticus as he would be in the Old Western world for a while.


"At least I don't have to worry about hard landings..." Atticus muttered as he landed on a plain away from the cacti, he then looked up and his luggage fell on top of him. "Sure, why not?"

A young calf who walked on two legs in his own cowboy outfit looked over and saw Atticus, looking a little scared and nervous at first. Atticus soon got up and picked up his luggage before making his way to the Old Western town he saw. The calf then ran off into town to go tell someone.

Atticus looked up and all around as he explored the land he was now in. "I wonder if my appearance will give off the wrong message like the time on Eternia at first?" He said as he explored.

A bunch of people walked about, going about their own personal business. Atticus smiled sheepishly as he wandered around town and some townspeople saw him and kind of stared at him.

"Uh... Hello there..." Atticus waved to the townspeople.

The townspeople definitely didn't know if he could be trusted or not.

"Maybe Drell should have changed my appearance." Atticus sighed.

There were horses heard galloping into town.

"Whoa!" Atticus yelped slightly and looked over.

There were three steers shown riding into town which shouldn't be much of a surprise.

"Looks like horses are still the source of travel," Atticus said. He then looked through one bag and found an animal based spell book to help change his appearance so he could blend in to the surroundings of Moo Mesa. "Here goes nothing." Atticus said about to do the spell.

He then shut his eyes and looked around after casting the spell. He then looked into a water trough to see his reflection and he was changed into a young steer to blend in with this new world. Eventually, the townspeople focused on their saviors when they saw them and Atticus looked over to the three cowboys he was supposed to meet. He soon saw a young calf coming over to the three steers.

"Hey, Calf-Pint." One steer greeted with a light chuckle.

"There's something weird in town!" The calf panicked.

Atticus knew exactly what the calf meant and decided to continue to just blend in the crowd to not draw any suspicions while the calf explained what the something weird was to the three steers.

"Now, now, don't worry, it was probably just a dream." Another steer told the calf.

"Really, guys, I saw it!" The calf pouted.

Atticus soon tripped over his own feet/hooves. "Oh, come on! I walk on two feet just fine and when it's with paws, sure, but with hooves, sure why not? Be difficult." He groaned as he got up, not knowing he was heard.

This soon made some others look at him.

"Uh... Moo...?" Atticus smiled, nervously and awkwardly. "That probably didn't make my situation any better."

"My name's Atticus." The new face in town replied.

"Interesting name... You're not from around here, are ya?" The steer asked.

"Heh... Is it that obvious?" Atticus asked, sheepishly.

"Well, new faces tend to stick out easily..." The steer said and then helped him stand back up.

"Ohh." Atticus said, understanding.

"You a big, fancy city boy then?" The steer chuckled.

"Yeah, you could say that." Atticus said.

"Well, welcome to Moo Mesa," The steer told him. "I guess I should introduce myself. I'm the marshal of Moo Mesa here. Marshal Moo Montana."

"Nice to meet you, sir." Atticus replied, politely as always.

The two other steers soon came over.

"Well, boys, we got ourselves a city slicker," Montana chuckled to the two other steers. "Now, this here's Dakota Dude, and over here's The Cowlorado Kid."

"Nice to meet you both." Atticus smiled.

"This here's Atticus." Montana told the others.

Dakota and Atticus shook hands, both showing how strong they were.

"Nice grip." Atticus and Dakota replied.

"Whoa, Dakota, looks like this city boy's your competition." Montana teased.

"Oh, we'll see about that." Dakota smirked.

Atticus soon felt Dakota's grip much stronger.

"All right, you can let go now, buddy." Cowlorado suggested.

"Aw, but I'm just having some fun, fellas." Dakota said innocently.

"Come on, you don't wanna break his hand." Cowlorado chuckled a little.

"All right, all right..." Dakota said before letting go. "Not a bad grip, kiddo."

"I ain't seen him before," Montana said. "Ya think he might be related to Cody or Miss Lily?"

"I don't know who either those are, but I'm sure I'd be told by my parents I was related to someone by either of those folks." Atticus said.

"Yer a strange kid... I guess we can let ya in," Montana shrugged. "So much for Miss Lily."

"You just want an excuse to go see her." Dakota smirked.

Atticus could already tell that this Miss Lily must be like Montana's girlfriend or something.


"So... This is Moo Mesa..." Atticus said to himself before following the cowboys to their horses.

The horses looked over and even they looked curious about Atticus, and where they started to notice his right hoof/foot was starting to go back to human only for it to change back to a hoof. The horses looked to each other almost as if they were discussing what they saw.

"So, who're the horses?" Atticus asked.

"Our horses of course," Montana chuckled. "This is my horse, Cyclone."

"And this here is my horse, Rebel." Dakota introduced.

"And finally, we have Jezebel." Cowlorado concluded.

"Lovely horses," Atticus smiled. "Nice to meet you all too."

The horses seemed to smile back at Atticus even though he was new in town. The calf from earlier soon noticed Atticus's spell book.

"You got a horse?" Dakota asked.

"Of course he don't, he's a city boy." Montana reminded.

"I might not have one, but I do go horseback riding when I don't have chores or school work." Atticus said before noticing the calf.

"Well, that sure does sound like fun." Dakota chuckled.

Atticus looked over to the calf. The calf gasped and soon went to hide once he was noticed by Atticus.

"Um, is that calf shy?" Atticus asked the three steers.

"Calf-Pint, get out here, ya know better than that." Montana told the calf.

The calf soon came back out and came closer to the cowboys and Atticus.

"Atticus, this is Cody, or as is nicknamed by Montana, 'Calf-Pint'." Cowlorado introduced.

"It's nice to meet you, Cody." Atticus smiled.

"Um... Howdy..." Cody smiled back. "Sorry about earlier... I saw something weird..."

"Ya don't say..." Atticus smiled nervously since he thought that was probably him. "I'm sure whatever you saw wouldn't mean any harm."

"Hmm..." Cody hummed suspiciously.

Suddenly, Atticus held his stomach as he felt hungry and smiled sheepishly.

"Sounds like someone could go for some grub." Cowlorado teased playfully.

"I haven't eaten since breakfast." Atticus smiled sheepishly.

"Come on, buddy, let's get some food in you then." Montana chuckled.

"This way." Dakota added, going to get Atticus some food as he was hungry.

"Sounds good to me." Atticus smiled to the cowboys.

They soon went into a saloon which was known as The Tumbleweed.
