The Remote

Chapter 10: Detour

After I had placed the teleportation marker, I walked around some more until I noticed a small town. I walked a little closer to the town and noticed a giant tree that brought back memories of the six horses and the purple midget.

'Could that be the same place?' I thought. 'It has to be, this is so close to the forest I arrived in.'

I knew that I couldn't just barge into the tree, so I had to think outside of the box. I already had an awesome outfit, weapons to defend myself, and the laser device included with the remote. I was missing something that could easily disguise me, and I knew just where to get such a device. It was a game that was focused on hat collecting, a game called Team Fortress 2. I still can't believe people are still playing this game after around 700 years of its release. I notified Ted of the change of plans and he was okay with it. I quickly adjusted the coordinates and took off. Once I arrived inside of a map of Team Fortress 2, I looked around for the nearest Spy. I saw a blue Spy coming out of its spawn room and snuck up behind him, which is kind of ironic, and stabbed him in the back with my hidden blades. I scavenged the Spy's body for the disguise kit and as a bonus, the invisible watch. Luckily, these characters could respawn, otherwise I would have felt terrible for killing him. I quickly teleported to the teleportation marker, finally ready for the journey of the Fountain of Youth.

"All right!" I yelled out loud as I equipped the invisible watch to my left wrist.

"Oh, it's you." A shy female voice said.

I turned around to find the yellow Pegasus with pink hair looking at me with a scared face.

"Aw crap." I said with a frown.
