Note: This will be a two part story and I have no idea when I'll get around to writing the second part. This was going to be a one-shot, but I changed my my mind and wanted to publish it now.
It is nighttime in New York City and at the top of a skyscraper, six gargoyles and one human were sitting around watching television.
The gargoyle named Hudson, the eldest among the seven, had the remote and was flipping through the channels, trying to find something interesting to watch.
"Hey! Wait go back!" Lexington, the smallest one, shouted and got closer to the television. Hudson did what he asked and changed the channel back to the previous one, which was the local news channel.
"Earlier today, a sixteen year old boy claimed to have been transported to a different world filled with strange and powerful creatures. He was reported missing by his family three days earlier and he was fond next to the Hudson River, unconscious, but not hurt. He is currently at a mental hospital being evaluated by the doctors to see if he suffered a mental breakdown or if he was using drugs. We do not have that much information at this time, but we were able to get copies of the boy's drawings of some of the creatures and places he described." The news man said, then the screen showed a picture of lizard man wearing a loincloth.
The picture was replaced with another drawing, but this time it was a female creature that had wings.
"Hey, that looks like a gargoyle!" Broadway, the over-weight gargoyle, said while pointing to the picture. The picture was once again replaced with another drawing of a tropical jungle like location.
"Pretty." Elisa Maza, the only human in the room, commented.
"Unfortunately, we only were able to get these three drawings. Our sources tell us that he has drawn many more creatures and locations. Back to you Mary." the man said, but Hudson muted the television, before the woman began to talk.
"I say we go ask this guy more about what happened to him. From that one drawing, he might have discovered a new clan we didn't know about!" Lexington said, looking around the room to see what the others thought.
"Sorry Lexington, but from what my sources have told me so far is that the guy has completely lost his mind. And besides that story of his is just not realistic." Elisa said.
"But remember lassie, that was what everyone thought about us gargoyles and many humans still believe we are just a figment of their imaginations. I say we give this poor boy a chance and look into his claim." Hudson said.
"That's completely different, Hudson." Elisa said, then turned her head towards Goliath, the leader. " Please tell me, Goliath, that you don't think we should go ask the mental kid about his hallucinations."
Goliath, was quite for a few seconds thinking it over with his thinking face on and rubbing his chin.
"I too find it hard to believe that the boy was transported to a different world, but after all that we have been through I find it even harder to believe that you would dismiss his story without talking to him first." Goliath said.
"Yay, come one Elisa. It wouldn't hurt us to at least go talk to the guy." Brooklyn, the clan's second-in-command, said.
Seeing that the magarita of the room was in favour of going to talk to the nut-job, she caved and agreed to go along with it.
