The Multiverse
Happy Time's Story
Part II: The Warrior
Happy Time was not accustomed to jungle terrain nor his new, catlike body. He stumbled about for hours, looking for some signs of sentient life or settlement. He did his best to avoid bugs, but they always found him. Webs got caught all over his body. No matter how far or long he walked, he couldn't find a way out of the rainforest.
Needless to say. He was one miserable little cat.
Wait a minute! He thought to himself suddenly, I can just use one of the Elements of Harmony to find my way out!
Using the powers of the Element of Laughter, a large field of golden light was emitted from him into his surroundings.
That way! He says to himself, walking towards the thick trees. After about ten minutes, his nose caught a scent. He was delighted, then disgusted.
Oh Gosh! What is that nauseating odor!?
The Element of Laughter did not sway from its direction. It determined that the best outcome would come when he followed the smell, no matter how bad it smelled. He did as it asked.
He came to a cleared out spot of jungle. A lone man sat on a makeshift bed of leaves. He was average sized with messy mop of dirty blonde hair on his head. What parts of his face that wasn't covered in dirt was covered by his beard. He wore a black jacket on his back and black metal on his chest. All other articles of clothing, such as his pants, boots, and fingerless gloves, were also black. Next to him lay two swords and the dead body of what looked like a large, scaly cat. The rear leg of the creature had been removed and was being eaten by the man. The corpse, of course, was what was emanating the smell.
"Would you care for a bite?" said the stranger, looking over at Happy Time.
"Uuuummmmm…No thanks?" replied Happy Time.
"I don't blame you," replied the stranger, taking another bite of the creature. "It's pretty disgusting and impossible to cook. Its putridity makes it extremely combustible."
Happy Time seated himself next to the man, opposite of the man's catch. "What is that anyway?" he asked.
"Caragor," replied the stranger, "It's native to the Mordor in the world of Arda."
"Wait a minute!" gasped Happy Time, "You're like me! You're a Dimension Traveller!"
"And what Dimension do you come from?" asked the man.
"Ponyville," replied Happy Time.
"I doubt that," replied the man, "You're an Exceed from Extalia."
"Am not! I just…happen to look like this away from home."
"Ha!" laughed the man, "Good Company is Good Company, no matter where it comes from." He held out his hand to Happy Time, "The name's Dovahkiin. Pleased to meet you, cat"
Happy Time puffed in rage, but gave Dovahkiin his paw nonetheless.
"Happy Time, charmed to meet you, Smelly."
"Now you're getting the hang of this," replied Patrick with a smile. "I like you."
Happy Time, despite what had just happened, couldn't help but smile like an idiot too.
