Outside the Ivory Tower
Fantasia: Unknown time
The sun itself is rising over the horizon of an ivory tower that is home of the childlike empress called Moonchild, the lands are full of make believe creatures that are a reality. Gordon Freeman had learned from the locals that years ago this dimension suffered a planetary disaster by some unnatural force known as The Nothing. Was it an ally of the combine or something else, Gordon had scanned this place and found no Combine activity or influence at all!
Who knew a boy from Earth helped restore the planet back to the way it was. The locals wanted to know what happened to the boy named Bastian Bux He didn't have an answer, because he does not know the boy. He spent a couple of days exploring dimension. The land of this world is beautiful and dangerous at the same time. The Inhabitants of this world found Gordon to be a little odd, because he explained what the combine are Walking towards him is Cairon, a servant of the Empress.
"Well what can I do for you my good man," said Gordon.
"It would seem you are not the only annoyance on our planet," said Cairon "When do you plan to leave."
"Soon but not yet," said Gordon "I haven't annoyed anyone," he paused for a moment "Not the only visitor aye."
"You are correct," said servant "God What an Awful Racket they make with their music. They insist they are just rehearsing for the empress's party this evening, I take it you will be attending."
"If you will excuse me-"Cairon is interrupted by voice to his right
"Yeah a beach, let's party" a voice is heard in the background
Gordon Freeman raised a brow under his glasses as he found the people coming towards to be interesting in clothing, as interesting can have many meanings. Carion the servant of the child-like empress of Fantasia rubbed his forehead and signed a bit at the people or band members whom are well known on Earth or so he is told by them. Then that must mean Bastian Bux would know them. Their lyrics and methods in a ridiculous manner are well known. Gordon pondered on who they are as he must of seen them somewhere before.
One of them is looks like a humanoid barbarian with devil horns and a meaty-looking face, and carried a long sword named "Unt Lick" and a cuttlefish around his loins. According to rumor he is 43 billion years old, and was assembled on a planet called Scumdogia in "Syntho Womb 5" His name is!
Oderus Urungus
Another one appears as a humanoid creature with a face resembling a bear-trap and wielding a giant battleaxe along with an odd assortment of clothing. He is from the planet Zog and his name is!
Balsac the Jaws of Death
The third one resembles a monstrous dog with very large teeth. He is wielding a large war hammer. According to rumor he was a beast of tremendous power, native to a planet known as "The Wide, Wide World of Sports" and he was frozen in a block of ice on Earth. His name is
Jizmak Da Gusha
The forth one appears as a stout humanoid girded in Roman-style armor. He is usually portrayed wielding either an oversized Gladius sword. According to rumor he originates from the planet Cholesterol and weighs approximately 299 tons and "invented music by stretching dinosaur guts across the Grand Canyon". His name is!
Beefcake the Mighty
The last one looks like a man with a red face, white dreadlocks, dinosaur-head shoulder pads and reptile feet. According to rumor he hailed from the world called Pot. He once called home, but he ended up destroying it by smoking the entire planet out of existence. His name is!
Flattus Maximus
"Say," said Gordon "Are you guys suppose to be GWAR," he pointed out "How did you guys end up here,"
Hey look it's could be a human from Earth," said Beefcake
"From Earth," said Oderus who is biting his nails "I hope he isn't a government agent, they are scary."
"Gee wiz," said Jizmark "We came to this dimension to party and perform a few songs for the empress."
"I'm hungry," said Balsac "We can barbeque some food here."
"I hope we get paid or I am going to be pissed off," said Flattus "Hey man how's it going."
"Are you in trouble," Gordon asked Oderus
Oderus Urungus went on to explain the U.S government found out they are really aliens posing as humans. So it got them in some trouble and had some humans to switch places with them to form the band GWAR. Oderus stayed behind until he was found out and faked his death in his human identity. So now GWAR is exploring the galaxy in this dimension and doing their music to other species and civilizations. So they came upon Fantasia and had heard the Childlike empress is throwing a party later tonight.
"So are you going to be there to see us play?" Asked Flattus
"Sure why not, I am almost finished exploring this place anyway" nodded the one-free-man
The Ivory Tower
Fantasia: Nighttime
The night stars can be seen in the sky above the planet in this dimension known as Fantasia. All assortments of people have come from all walks of life from the planet as many of them are mythical creatures. Some small, some large, and others very strange indeed, sitting upon her throne is the childlike empress known as Moonchild. From what Gordon had learned she got her name after the incident against a supernatural force known as The Nothing. The empress motioned for GWAR to begin to play their music while she mingled with everyone in the room.
*Their music started as is it heard in the background. The empress came towards the secret agent as he understands she is an immortal child around the age twelve or third-teen. Gordon is wearing his armor like he always does
"Your majesty," he bowed respectfully
"I know we haven't met yet," said moonchild "But welcome to Fantasia, so what do you think of our planet or this dimension."
"It's a beautiful world full of mystery." said Gordon "So tell me, what is the Nothing?" he pointed out "It could have been a combine super weapon
"Well it is hard to explain because it has no shape or form," said the empress "I do not know of these combine explain
"Just nothing right," said Gordon as he explained about the combine "To answer your question I am from the same world as the boy people keep mentioning here, but just not in this dimension"
"That is terrible, but thank you anyway" said the empress "What music are they playing?"
"It's called heavy metal," Gordon
"Would you like to dance," asked the empress
"You're a little young in dancing with someone my age," said Gordon.
It would be rude if you didn't," said the empress "I can always order it,"
"Very well," said Gordon.
Gordon Freeman spent several hours at the party in the ivory tower on the planetary dimension known as Fantasia; of course he listened to the metal music known as G.W.A.R of course he danced with the childlike Empress known as the moonchild and listened to tales about the boy who saved this planet from a force known as The Nothing, along with other adventures as well that the body had on Fantasia. Knowing it was time to leave, Fantasia has no combine influence or activity at all.
Freeman's log
Found no Combine activity at all, I was told many amazing stories and met an Earth band called GWAR, heh who knew it turned out to be an interesting encounter He explained the rest about this place.
End log
Once again Gordon activated his portal technology, as a portal opened up and he stepped through both he and the portal disappeared into thin air.
