A Calamity In Time Chapter 1: Old Friend=New Foe?
Date: October 16th, 2020
Authors Notes: Hey everyone! I am back after months of not working on any new full stories! This one will be based on time travel and stuff! The last full story I wrote was one starring my fursona, I havent started a new long story in nearly a year which is crazy! The world is madness right now so I hope you will enjoy this first chapter for what it is and as a distraction for a while! I will be using the oh so professional periods when its appropriate in quantities of one for now on when I write this and other stories because doing what I generally do is redundant and a little inefficient XD(will still be doing but still wanna start using single periods)! Enjoy!
You know what its like to wake up one day and see everything changed? That is the reality of many people who have been long comas, but, it also applies to me: Kind Warrior Adam.. Went to bed, all that, blah blah, and I just woke up and.. Everything is gone besides my devices, cards, clothes, fluffy red white tipped tail, and plushies(I woke up in a sleeping bag).. When I mean gone, I really mean it as the house I live in in Cincinnati on my Earth is gone and so is the neighborhood.. Instead, there is a massive factory worked by people Ive never seen before and it looks familiar like what Ive seen due to what went down last year with the SDL and everything.. I turn around to look to see whats behind me and guess what: some of my stuff from Fun Land has appeared like my duel disk, weapons, other cards, diapers(no I can control my areas fine, Im just free to actually have diapers in the world of Animal Crossing to wear for fun), clothing items, and guitar(my synthesizer kinda disintegrated for whatever reason but Im glad because one Marilyn Manson aka the guy who gave it to me in 2018 is actually a pretty terrible person)! Me being me, I decide to see if Im interpreting things correctly by turning on my iPad, entering its passcode, and getting on Twitter..
There is no wi fi so this fails, but, the area looks familiar terrain wise: what happened to my neighborhood? Switching into punk/black metal spiked bracelets, diapers, a lab coat-paint jacket hybrid with my Digital Arts and Design t-shirt underneath, lace up red boots, and ripped jeans: I decide to investigate whats going on so with all my stuff put away in a backpack that has a pocket dimension in it(thanks Dominic my good scientist friend for inventing it and giving one to me :D). I get to this area which blocks the factory grounds from intruders and walk my way up to the person chilling in the booth and ask: "Hey what is this place?" They reply: "Ive never seen you before.. Let me see if you have an ID for this great SDL`s Ultimate Empire citizenship, I dont need anyone to disobey our lord! Oh.. WHAT YOU DONT HAVE AN IDENTITY?! You must be one of those anarchists that have been trying to supposedly fight the supreme ideology of racism! They have managed to get away with not having any required IDs, its so unfortunate our lord is so busy with that rebellion in the former Roman Multiuniverse Empire! Those Italian socialists have whats coming for them! I will now bring you down and lock you up in the Cincinnati Reform Facility run by one of the most loyal servants of the SDL! This should be easy!" I reply: "Am I in the wrong timeline or lost in time or something? Im supposed to be getting ready to go somewhere in an hour or so! Shame that you have to face me, I have likewise never ever seen you before! I can just defeat you with a card: arise Xyz Protector! A support card for Xyz monsters might do my job for me!" It turns out Xyz Protector easily overpowers my foe and I pull out another card: "Thy foe must now be made powerless for a while, Judicial Golem, ensure this guy cant do anything for the next 8 hours!"
I walk away after the deed is done(I used the little shadow magic I still have to conceal the events as I spotted security cameras that are insanely high tech) so as to find another way into the place, I have a feeling the security here would make the most corrupt police officer in my timeline`s USA tremble in fear and give up even. I scout the whole place and discover the perfect way in: a truck area. With there being a constant stream of trucks going in and out, I easily sneak into the back of one and get out as quickly as I can! Getting an idea on how to create enough chaos to let me search and investigate properly, I head to the top of the factory, conjure a megaphone(whatever those things that project sounds are called), and easily defeat factory guards and others that try to stop me! Once I am certain no one is coming for me and I have ct as many security cameras as I could find in the area, I go off on a tangent hoping it will get some workers to listen and create a workers revolution: "Workers! You are the backbone of society! Arent you tired of working every day for someone who will make you wish you were never born? Dont you want to see a future where Cincinnati is a free city? Fight against authority, occupy this factory and spread the revolution against tyranny! Didnt you learn at least some history from whenever when the SDL took over the world as warped as it might have been? Can you imagine having fun? Whats the point of worshipping a leader who is more concerned with power, money, being evil, and so on over the health and safety of their own people? Fight! Fight! And hows some music dedicated to you the workers! Im sure youve never heard of this before: Powershifter by Fear Factory! Try to understand every word!"
I play a cover of said Fear Factory song before continuing: "The spirit of revolution should always strive for freedom! No one person should have too much power or money, please join!" I actually convince several hundred workers out of a few thousand to revolt and while they take over the factory, I head out of it to try to find some place that has what I need to figure out what went wrong in space time. I remember the library closest to me and go to where it would be back in the timeline I belong to and luckily for me, there is a library though it looks like the stuff of nightmares and is covered in SDL posters.. The security of course catch on to the fact I dont have one of those fancy IDs so I end up combatting against them. My sword which I had actually retired last year remains as strong as ever and with it, they were no match for me! Good for me, the library has easy to access books that are actually the kind Im looking for: history books if you could even call them that. Flipping through a good number of books, I eventually get all the information I need and piece together what happened.. After the fall of Constantinople to the Ottomans, something happened. A mysterious magic man with technology that made them god like overthrew the Ottomans and established their own empire. This empire expanded to acompass much of the world, even England fell to it..
The Mongols were the only ones who stood a chance and so they managed to beat this Terran Empire as the magic man had left without a trace. The empire`s quick fall created a power vacuum that limited the expansion of the Mongol Empire, but, it planted a little seed that would unravel itself by 1914. This seed caused an extremist movement in the German empire to take over and WW1 ends up being in the Central Powers favor(the 2nd Ottoman Empire was established before this) due to this and America`s extreme isolation. A similar movement took over Russia as well and in a few short years, the world was under communist control. Constant break ups of these mega nations plus reformations up until 1995 would leave Planet Earth defenseless. The United Socialist States of America, the Greater German Empire(Europe), the 2nd Mongol Empire, the British Empire(now based in Sydney, Australia), the African Union(democratic state), and anarchist South America stood no chance against the SDL`s forces and were conquered within days. It is said the SDL went back over 20 years in time to establish his empire far earlier then 2019 and few nations stand in the way: the German Multiverse Imperial Union is the strongest of them. Knowing all that now, I head back to the factory where the revolt has succeeded and a leader of the workers greets me and asks: "So what do we call you?" "Just call me Adam and I want all of you to spread the overthrow to as much of Ohio as possible! I wish I could stay, I really do, but, Im not of this timeline and I need to see if I can connect with anyone I know! I just need one of them trucks and some aid to enhance its speed to mind boggling numbers!" "Alright, you can just take one and let us know when you need any aid, we will try our best to help put such enhancements on!" "I definitely will! Now to see if I can contact the wolf who is so near and dear to my heart, I will inform you and the others what in the heck Im talking about later as I have got quite the number of things to tell about myself!"
I then mentally call out to my fursona Blaze and he answers with: "Awoo.. I wish I were hyper right now but.." "I know Blaze, I know: did your world`s timeline get altered somehow too? Planet Earth is ruled by a time traveling SDL now.." "Yeah Freddie as an anti wolf robot rules my home world too.. I dont even want to play with my toys.." "Well, Im glad you didnt go away with our timeline, Id be so hurt if I lost you, Im hurting enough as it is with what has happened to Cincinnati.. At least Covid-19 never became a big problem in this timeline as there is no such thing as traveling beyond a city in this alternate Earth that I wouldnt enjoy living on for the rest of my life.. Do you know if anyone you know from your world wasnt cast into The Void where original timelines and things go before eventually vanishing forever?" "I ran as fast as possible and I didnt see any of them, we could be on our own! At least smelly evil Freddie doesnt realize Im around hehe!" "Well heres the plan I just hatched: we meet up with whoever we can connect, somehow everyone makes it safely, and our meeting spot will be Antarctica because theres almost no way anyone is monitoring that continent! In fact, lets meet at an island off the coast of it!" "Awoo! I like that, Im giving everyone hugs when we get together! Im going to get my stuff together and figure out how to cross many universes to get to the meeting place!" We end the mental conversation(fueled by "Magic ™") and then I tell all my new allies all they need to know before trying to get into contact with Dominic which actually manages to work out thank goodness! Dominic as per my questions informs me that Austin, Brayden, Reborn Nathan, Ex Dark Lord Melvin, The Fab Fairies, Isabelle, The Wacky Clowns, Julia, Hugh, and Kyle(new Fun Land resident, he moved in in April of this year) are with him and also the instructions needed for me to put together a technology to make the truck break the sound barrier(and compete with a insane RCT3 roller coaster called Banana Power in speed) with the help of you know who!
I bid the allies goodbye before turning on a portable radio and saying while turning on Extreme Metal music on said radio: "Lets do this thing! I summon Xyz Driver to take the wheel for me because I cant drive 55 or even just 5! And I am probably wanted dead or alive by now! Good thing Im not in a dont need nothing but bathroom time comfort level right now! Go on, Xyz Driver!" I wave goodbye to everyone as the supercharged truck Im in at the command of Xyz Driver speeds off at over 3000 MPH, it can even fly and float now: the flight feature is used after getting to the southernmost point of Florida having gone so fast that no SDL loyalists or security can catch us(especially since I summoned most of the monster cards I have in total to help make a change in what should be the United States Of America)! While flying over Cuba briefly, I notice that my arm feels weak for whatever reason so I let it rest and continue to look at the newly built navigation map(yeah a lot was added to this previously generic truck) while Death Metal is playing. Soon enough, we reach a good island to land on so I mentally inform Blaze my location before calling Dominic to tell him as well. I try contacting anyone else through various communication systems, but, no one answers so it will be just all of us. I send all the monsters I brought out back into their cards and hope that everyone can make it okay while wondering what was now happening in America. For various reasons, I no longer use wizard magic and have instead switched to light/fire magic, I use such a lot including when in the cold like right now.
Also, I want to clarify what Ive been doing in regard to the Covid 19 pandemic(which has also appeared in many other universes for various causes by pure chance helped along by the fact all alternate Earths and similar are composed of the same elements and so on): I have only visited Fun Land when not sick in any capacity while keeping my distance and wearing masks, I have done daily announcements in Minecraftia regarding my park Twisted Land(the park after several years has been opened to the public with plenty of restrictions and 2 long temporary shutdowns of park facilities) which I through creative powers built myself, and I have in a streamed meeting with my band Raging Rockstars confirmed that all shows are cancelled for this year(except smaller ones with distancing, cleaning, and masks like on the site of what will be Quickdraw Canyon in Twisted Land, shows were suspended in March, start to somewhat comeback August). Anyway, the others manage to arrive successfully and well, Blaze hugs everyone of us(even me because Dominic just casually handed me a virus freezer pill that targets a virus in this case Covid and stops it completely in its tracks as I might have Covid and not even realize it, he got me a whole thing of them pills to take everyday until time is restored) which makes me very happy indeed!
I pet him and gently scratch his ears before saying: "Hey all! Its been a while! Thanks Dominic for these pills that stop any Sars-Cov-2 in my body! I wish we had these sort of things on my world, they are so complex I dont really need to know how you made them, keep that secret so that way, the future isnt accidentally altered! Now that we are here, I wish to state that I couldnt contact anyone else! And of course I just found out that there is a evil energy field that jammed the signal.. Does anyone have a plan on what we do now? I sure as heck dont have one thats for sure.. Im going to document this whole adventure but due to the whole time change and revert, it wouldnt be wise to make it public and probably just forget and bury the documentation somewhere no being will ever find it.." Dominic answers: "I have a plan! I worked so hard on it that Im not feeling lazy today at all! Here is what we do, I have identified how Heartland City of all places has the strongest energy signature: this means it can host other worlds without damage.. It is in our best interest to go to Heartland City to see if we can find anyone and have a more convenient place to travel to and from! If we can produce enough energy to create a wormhole, we can get there in seconds and maybe tamper SDL operations on this Earth too, helping along that revolution you started Adam! Any questions or objections anyone?" We all shake our heads no and so, he directs us to use all the power that we possibly can whilst getting out powerful technologies to enhance all that energy! Within a minute, a wormhole forms and we all go right into it(the truck is made to go back to Cincinnati with a note allowing that rebellion to use it).
Not even 30 seconds later and we are standing in an altered Heartland City where things are the way they were when Yuma had not yet dueled against Shark for his first win and yet I managed to spot as we walked around Heartland an alternate version of his sister the same age as she is during the "Life Is A Carnival" incident.. That being said, here comes the Yuma we know running towards us with Astral with him for some reason even though he dueled Astral and they no longer were together all the time.. He yells: "Finally some people who remember me! Why doesnt Kari remember me or anyone else? Its like Ive been erased and things are a little different! AAA I DONT UNDERSTAND!" In a Bob Ross like tone while Blaze gives him a comforting hug, I tell him: "Yuma, I know its very hard to deal with all this, but, I want you to know that we all have seen things change straight up today.. My world is ruled by the SDL for some reason, Dominic told me Fun Land has been taken over by evil Isabelle so he and the others had to find a hiding spot to hide from her, and so on.. We are in this together now, it so happens that Heartland City is the perfect place to get to other worlds and universes from so we came here. I am so glad that you and Astral were not lost to the altering of time, it would be nice to know who did this.. It seems that time here has changed to where Astral never came into this world, you never got the Emperor`s Key, and the Barians never really bother anyone here. Astral, did you notice anything different with Astral and Barian World?" "Yes Yuma please calm yourself, reacting will not help us get through this. And yes I did: Astral World has been destroyed by Barian World and I am supposed to be dead and used as a power source for what destroyed my home world.. The Barians plan on taking over this world as well and using all humans as more recruits with those fake number cards.. I fear if we dont change things fast enough, we will be much further from getting back what we lost and might even perish leaving little chance for time to be restored.." I turn to Dominic and ask: "With that out of the way, whats the next step?"
He answers honestly: "We first repair this world first, like Astral said its vital that we do this.. Now we need to figure out what point in time to go back to.." Suddenly, Austin yells to me: "Move!" I do what I was told and sure enough, I see some vehicle speeding past us about ready to crash into something as the brakes are activated.. It is no car, its a fricking train! Just who is in there? Feeling confuzzled, I and the others go over to inspect the now stopped train and guess who step out? Marty McFly and Doc Brown! Brayden reacts: "Marty? Doc? Intriguing that you ended up here too, how did you managed to get here by universe hopping?" Marty looks to Doc Brown who nods at him: "Well long story short, I woke up in alternate Biff`s casino again with my mom married to him and Doc appeared in the train when I walked outside to wrap my head around another timeline change.. We together went forward to 2015 to try to find out what happened when, a portal or as Doc called it a wormhole opened up and took us and the train all the way here." "Well thats quite the story, let me inform you both on what all we`ve been through." He gives all the details and things get interesting again as Ishizu the tomb keeper, Officer Trudge of Sector Security, Bastian of Ra Yellow, Starlight Glimmer, and Incinerate(Blaze`s werewolf friend) all show up through other wormholes confused.. Before anyone says a vowel, a white haired elderly male appears surrounded by a dark aura.. Pickle Rick Not An Alien demands: "Who are you? If you are bad, me and my family will use failed experiments and broken toilets against you! Your vibe doesnt seem good! We The Wacky Clowns have changed our ways to become one powerful family unit while retaining our quirks without a lot of infighting over fart smell from our UFO or something like that!" *Creepy dramatic evil villain music starts playing randomly*
This uninvited guest smirks and says: "Greetings old friends for it is I Fluffy Afro!" Incinerate responds: "That sounds like a lie to me, youre lucky I dont want to tear living beings into pieces anymore thanks to my good friend Blaze!" "Oh please, you couldnt defeat me even if you wore me out! Oops, I just exposed myself didnt I? I am Fluffy Afro indeed but from 3018! How is this possible? Well, the me you know is supposed to have an accident soon and end up in the hospital boo hoo how sad! I have further proof! Look at what I have! The frying pan I used to use to make food but rusted! Need more proof? Look at me! My hair has a little bit of orange still and I got the green eyes! During the suffering due to this accident and Covid 19 making hospital visits by individuals limited, I would go dark! I felt so alone and lost enough memory so that the seeds would be sewed for me to turn! I embraced the darkness as that was soon the only friend I had most days and as my negativity grew so did my strength.. I would heal myself and regain my lost memory, but, I wasnt going to go back was I? I escaped the hospital with no one able to stop me and hid from all civilization! During my isolation, I learned new skills and gained more and more power that by the time I should have passed away of natural causes, I had become immortal! Through my new intelligence, I started to construct a time machine over many years and once it was ready, I went back in time to possess some individuals through the history of many places to do my bidding and throw off the timeline completely! I havent made it obvious who, that history about a magic man is false because that magic man never existed! It is my fault all of you are gathered here, I wanted you to be together! You will not be able to stop me right here and now, I could crush all of you and make you feel the pain of having your hair randomly combust! My powers make me immune to time paradoxes! Old Fluffy is gone, new Fluffy aka me in your new foe! I could end your hopes right now, but, I like quality entertainment so I want you to try to undo what Ive done if you can! Honestly, Im not that happy you didnt go join the void, but, I will enjoy the extra challenge even though it will be nothing! Now I shall go, see you if you can survive mwahahahaha!"
Bastian comments: "Jaden would be very nice to have right now, same with Eisenstein.. Regardless, we should be able to figure out how to solve our dilemma." I add: "It doesnt exactly help that we dont know what year he came from or what place either.. Doc, can you get the train working to go to our first stop in time? And Yuma, what specifically is different and what has remained the same? Im sure the Emperors Key not being there was a reason time has changed, but, there may be much more and we have to find out soon.. The more time the timeline is left unchanged after alteration, the closer our timeline will be to being destroyed, we are lucky to have not joined said timeline but why didnt others in our massive team?" Doc gets to work on setting up the train for departure as Yuma says: "A lot! Shark, Tori, and Kite never existed! My parents died sometime and I dont exist as Astral put it! Doesnt sound like much, but, trust me there is a lot with that!" "Alright Yuma, that definitely is a heck ton of difference! Hart must be dead or in a bad position due to Dr. Faker aka his father among other things.. Why would future dark Fluffy go to such lengths to stop stuff from happening when he didnt have to do so much? Say, Yuma! You want to duel as we all wait for Doc to cheer ourselves up?" "Im game! Feeling the flow!" "Okay then, get ready for the metal! We will start with 4000 life points each and no numbers! Duel disk, unravel yourself as its time for action! Duel gazer: connected to the system! Lets duel!"
Yuma has his own commentary and goes first as I let him: "My turn! I draw and summon Achacha Archer in attack mode! Now his ability deals 500 points of damage since I summoned him! With that, I place 2 cards facedown and end my turn!" "Here we go, let the not so random luck because of flaws in machine randomizing give me a nice card in addition to the 5 I already have on my field! Cool, I got something fun! Tis be the time I summon Enchanted Wolf Soldier to the field! With their 1500 vs Archer`s 1200, my wolf is going to win in this battle phase! Go! Attack with Calamity Claws! In addition, when Enchanted Wolf Soldier destroys a monster, Im allowed to draw a card from my deck, but, for now lets let the battle unfold." "Sorry but I activate my trap, Half Unbreak! This means Archer isnt destroyed and I take only half the damage I would otherwise! And your monster cant use their special ability!" "Nice play dude! Im not done though for when I fail to destroy a monster with my own, I can summon out the tuner monster Brain Analyzer in attack mode! Now watch as 2 combine their stars and very beings into one like how several parts come together to form a full fursuit! I synchro summon during this battle phase level 6 Industrialist Infernal Wolf Biologist! When I successfully summon them, I can equip a monster level 2 or below from my graveyard to them in other to act as a shield! So welcome back Brain Analyzer as an equipped monster! I will end my turn with 3 facedowns, can you defeat my 2100 attack scientist on your next turn?" "I dont know but I sure will try! Draw! Yes! I summon Gagaga Magician in attack mode and active his ability allowing me to change his level from anywhere 1 to 8! I choose 3 and with that overlay Archer and Gagaga in order to build the overlay network! I xyz summon Muzurhythm the String Djinn! Now go attack Industrialist Infernal Wolf Biologist!"
"Why Yuma? Your monster is going to go bye bye.." "I activate a new trap, Underdog Support! Since my monster has less attack points *grins*, this card allows my monster to double in attack points during the damage step!" "Dang thats a good play! But, Im not letting up either for I activate one of my own traps! Its called Essence Of Twisted Land! It protects my monster from being destroyed and I take no damage! Also, I activate Emergency Provisions which is facedown to destroy my other facedown while we are here! That other facedown is called Hostile Hive and its purpose is to be destroyed for when I send it to the graveyard, Im allowed to summon any level 8 monster in my deck or extra deck! Present yourself and shock the world! Fashionable Grindcore Wolf Master! Now you can end your turn!" Due to several reasons, I have decided not to write up on much of the rest of the duel but I did write up: "Ready Yuma! My new ace monster Scorched Death Metal Werewolf! His ability that is triggered when summoned destroys all monsters my opponent controls!" and "Looks like the tables have turned! Go Gagaga Cowboy, end this duel!" I say to him as my life points hit zero: "Whew! That was awesome! You managed to make me run out of cards to use just about, leaving me open for a direct attack once you totally weakened my new ace! Oh well, he will be back in service soon Im sure! Now then, hey Doc! You done yet?"
Doc Brown replies "Yes! Come on in everyone! What date should we go for?" Yuma replies: "I will just put it in! This is the day my dad comes back home with my key." So there we go, we go back to one of the only dates anyone actually knows regarding the timeline of Heartland City! We step outside the train in an alleyway and Yuma leads us to his house. We together hide and watch as Yuma`s dad shows up in a medical transport bed in an ambulance with his family all there wondering what happened. I decide to casually walk out and come over to them asking: "Hi all, sorry to interrupt, but, did you Mr. Tsukumo so happen to get some sort of key?" At that moment, I sense a dark aura and gesture the others to come out just as one of the medical professionals mysteriously goes over to Yuma`s father and takes the key for themselves.. I comment: "Nevermind, we have a thief here with a dark aura. Sorry to break your moment, Tsukumo family, but, we are here on urgent matters we should not state, forget we were ever here, we have to take the key for safe keeping, you will get it back when you recover, Mr. Tsukumo! Now to deal with this individual! Hey person, follow us so we can settle this elsewhere!" That enrages the possessed medic enough to where they literally chase us! Once we get back to the alleyway, Bastian challenges the medic to a duel after Starlight Glimmer traps them in a magic bubble for the moment! Bastian beats them in the duel, but, they wouldnt give up or give us the key as they exclaim: "No! You cant have it! I have orders to take it to the Barians to use as easy access to Astral World and I wont let you stop me! Blizzard Blast!" The sudden attack tries to freeze us all in place, but, it is my turn to intervene!
Getting a flamethrower out and unleashing fire magic as Industrial Metal plays from nowhere and I sing/shout in German(I picked up on some German) some stuff: "Feuer, Feuer negiert Eis! Die Hitze wird die Kälte, ihre grundlegende Wissenschaft und Magie gewinnen! Feuer frei! Mein radio, mein radio! Ich tu dir weh! Und ich wünschte, ich müsste es nicht!" My plan works and confuses our brainwashed foe a little bit who still doesnt give up so I decide to try another thing to get them to give up somehow: logical mind blowing, "So you want to carry out your mission? Would it make you happy? The brain seeks pleasure and social interactions for better survival, we dont beat human nature, we fall right into its hands! Doing what youre told obviously means youre afraid or you just dont think freely for yourself! Dont you want to be free? Break free! Your brain can break the brainwashing you have brought on by evil just like the brainwashing in American society that causes bigotry to spike drastically! You are a medical professional, you are so much better then what you are now, embrace your true self its going to be alright! You dont have to help the Barians with their plans, they will just find someone else to use as a tool! The hospital doesnt use you as a pawn, it uses you as a good employee willing to help patients to work for them and said patients! Who knows when your mind changed, but, dont let anything latch onto you like a parasite! The mind enjoys being right, the brain uses the body as a vehicle for what it wants and needs! Think doctor, think!" That and a little hint of light magic allows the medical professional to become free again and also remember the words said!
They politely bow to us in a Japanese like way and give me the Emperor's Key, task a complete! Dominic fist bumps everyone: "We did it! This should mean if my calculations are correct that the Barians will spend an extra 10 years plotting to destroy Astral World, allowing for Astral World to be able to become more powerful to face the Barians, pushing back the actions taken by the Barians an extra 5 years and leading to their ultimate failure for the key serves as a gateway between this Earth and Astral World and contains a lot of power! Not only that, but, the Barians would have to rely on Earth more to aid in their plan! That doesnt solve certain individuals not being born, but, it sure is a start!" I chim in: "Cool now how in the heck do we undo the undoing of 4 births? It appears a lot more people dont exist then just 4.. And all of them are under 18 according to Dominic`s population loss counter.. Dominic, you are so good at building useful inventions! There is no way we are letting any governments get access to it as I know in my world it would speed up technological advances by literal centuries! Your smarts are aided by your scientist job and having learned a lot of stuff in your life which is fantastic! Back to the problem at hand, does anyone have any thoughts on how we can correct all that?" Brayden speaks: "I have encountered and learned much on my travels as the Great Sage.. Tales of the exploits of many and so much more! I believe we must go back in time further to thwrat the plans of a possessed individual who manages to kill too many fetuses who should have been born to parents who wanted them to make it through pregnancy.. We all know that abortion is okay under our collective morality and my body my choice/the supreme laws of select nations.. Just a thought bubble! In one of my adventures, I stopped a individual from causing dying fetuses with radium and plutonium, they wanted to do this as they were jealous they couldnt have kids, rough.." Suddenly, someone`s ringtone or whatever goes off and we all turn to Austin blushing while also being confused as the ringtone continues to play!
And it has lyrics and is a whole song which goes: "A calamity in time! Nothing makes sense, everything`s changed and it sucks! Wake up to a altered reality, unsure of why! Friend turned foe, foe turned timeline upside down! Headbang like it really matters when reality is at stake of being altered forever! Original timeline in peril, one must never mess with time! The heroes, they come back to fight once again! United by common goals and beliefs, they shall combat the darkness back together! Motivation has never been needed this much before! Respect those who seek to fix problems that destroy everything! A calamity in time, you know what is happening now! Insanity, creativity! It all combines into a force to be weary of for those of evil! Time is a blur, crisis takes over, intolerance rises to power, but, hope lives as a fiery force that threatens the tryanny!" It eventually stops with Austin apologizing: "Sorry about that, thats not even my ringtone, I barely use my phone as it is.. I have no idea why that music played! Why does it feel like it was a reference to our situation and something else?" I reply before letting Brayden refresh us all on what he was saying: "I believe that its probably a theme song and our adventures are being seen as a plotline.. I just have that inference: I guess being a creative storyteller and artist comes with its own quirky perks! Better then dealing with a marker running out in less then a month after purchase though at the very least! Now, as you were saying Brayden.." "*Refreshes us with what he said* Okay, all reminded. Future Fluffy would not try the same trick twice so as to confuse anyone attempting to undo his damage to the multiverse.. He couldnt have possessed another hospital worker, I doubt a patient would have been possessed either.. It could have been security, a person who broke in, secretaries, deliverers of hospital supplies, janitors, mechanics, or chefs. I dont have as much of a clue beyond what I have explained!"
Banana Pants jumps in: "We know our options, but, how are we supposed to pin a single individual amongst perhaps hundreds? Is this supposed plot multiverse morphing into part detective theme? I have been enlightened in the past 2 years.. We cannot afford to spend a ton of time looking through decades of hospital security footage, itd be nice if the individual were a doctor, but, they dont have as many doctors here as in our worlds due to the technology Heartland has in part thanks to Dr. Faker.. Speaking of Dr. Faker, we cannot trust this timeline`s version of him, maybe we should ask around Heartland for any clues as to who did it?" I encourage that we all take a break so I can write down possible scenarios of who, when, where, how.. Security guard, secretary, trespasser, hospital supply deliverers, chefs, janitors, and mechanics are listed as groups the culprit could be a part of assuming someone did go around and tamper with pregnancies.. Where: different sections of Heartland`s hospital. When: Morning, afternoon, evening, midnight. How: forced abortion(least likely, too suspicious), secret poison, dangerous chemicals or gasses, radiation(such as exposure to radium and plutonium), the morbid approach, starving of something essential(oxygen, food, etc). With the list written down, I let everyone see it and having gained all their approvals, I say: "You forgot Banana Pants, old newspapers could point us in the right direction and maybe there was more then one culprit.. Once we find the earliest crime and stop it from happening, we should return here and see what all has changed.. This really is like a detective thing, I wonder if we can find more physical clues beyond old newspapers.. Heres what we will do: we will split up and search for clues: half of us will go search anywhere theres trash even if it gets messy and very gross, thankfully the litterbots take out the trash every night so theres a lot less trash to look through because all of it is unfortunately being sent off to attack Astral World.. *Dominic gives everyone x-ray goggles* Oh thanks dude, you are a life saver and technological hero! Moving on, the other half will go through town asking people and someone will return the key to Yuma`s father..
We all meet up at dark at the windmill portion of the outskirts of the city and set up a place to sleep after eating of course.. Im glad we decided to eat just now during our break, good move on us! We have several hours left in the day, if only we had more help.. Hmm, some of my monsters could blend in and help divide the work better, same with yours Yuma! Lets summon all the human like monsters and make clothes for them! I wish I had some of my friends from back on Earth, but, they are all frozen in time poised to be erased permanently if we dont fix all this craziness.. Anyway, we will split up after this, I call going trash hunting! I did hold up a dumpster bin lid multiple times in 5th grade because I wanted free pizza from LaRosa`s which is redundant when I think back haha! Ive had the meal plan for Kings Island every year starting 2014 even this turd dump of a year we call 2020! It pays for itself so quickly I might as well have gotten a lot of free food from LaRosa`s and Skyline just within Kings Island including during 5th grade! Now that is one way to reference Kings Island in some way!" Yada yada, we summon the needed monsters, summon in Heartland trend clothes for them and ourselves to really blend in(the monsters are summoned thanks to dimension wormholes) and go ahead to go our separate ways till when it gets dark out! I head to the Heartland school first to look around trash bins before quickly realizing how dumb of an idea that is, theres almost no way there are any newspapers, but, I decide to do it anyway and thanks to Dominic once again for the x ray goggles that me and others got! It makes life so much easier, I can just look at trash cans and litterbots claiming to be admiring the garbage system to its fullest extent that I could within my set patrol area for garbage looking! I also just claimed for when on school grounds that Im on an urgent mission that requires me to get anywhere possible without any security clearance due to a worldwide emergency(not far from the truth at all though)!
Some people give me trouble including one Reginald (Shark) Kastle to who I say after being confronted about what Im doing here as a non student: "*Pulls out sword* Lets be civil okay? *Puts sword away* I am very well trained to use that sword even though Im a little rusty from not using it for nearly a year.. I cannot tell you the specific emergency that requires me to look around while also admiring the garbage system seemingly out of nowhere for what Im trying to accomplish, but, I will say that things that are happening in this world shouldnt be happening, classified time travel, now be hush about this please, I know you are a bully, but, disclosing what Im telling you to anyone will put everything in danger.. You dont like caring about weaklings. I get it, power complex you got that for sure, I can make you regret anything you do in defiance of my plea and probably logically and most likely creatively outclass you.. Hush and good day!" I walk off and continue on with my quest which eventually takes me out of the school grounds! By the time it gets dark, I have looked through the designated area for me to search and managed to find an old newspaper with the content I was looking for in actuality! It states a date the changings of time wont allow me to remember now and reads: "Tragedy! Families across Heartland have been reporting mysterious deaths of fetuses for multiple years now! We have an interview with Dr. Faker who lost who would have been his older son a few years back coming up tomorrow and well known explorer Tsukumo and his wife lost their baby boy recently.."
There isnt anymore, somehow sadly, but, its very valuable information! I go meet up with the others and even though we all arent professional cooks or anything, we manage to put together a decent dinner for ourselves! Thank goodness for all that cooking training done by helping teammates create the biggest feasts ever among individuals who arent really all that wealthy in years past! All of us have a discussion about what we all found out and heres the deal: A string of mysterious fetal deaths occuring over the span of many years has affected many families. It has been determined that each one died of poison as indicated by blood tests for the mothers and their removed dead children. There are no suspects, whoever has done this has been extremely sneaky and there is no sign of a culprit anywhere. Who knows what time of day they could have slipped in the poison on the many occassions they poisoned fetuses or if there is more then one. That solves one of the categories at least.. Moving on, I pet Blaze again right before we all went to bed! In the morning, we wake up thanks to me to Evisceration Plague by Cannibal Corpse via my alarm clock, its pretty intense! Blaze speaks up: "Awoo! Awoo! Morning with metal to start it! *Licks everyone* Good morning, good morning, I love all of you as friends! Now lets do something about the timeline problem!" For some reason, I feel a powerful energy and let everyone know that fact just as a large figure appears before us! We are shocked and I manage to snap out of the shock first: "Hey large powerful being, who are you and why are you here?"
They reply: "My name is Minenabis, I am the lord of space and time.. I come in peace and to meet all of you.." "Okay but if youre the lord of time and space, then, why arent you restoring time to what it was?" "Kind Warrior Adam and friends, I have the power to fix time when there is no mortal who can due to a binding spell between me and the multiple other lords of existence including the dark one who was fused with corrupted Freddie and led to the multiverse nearly being overwritten again.. Time alterations are something I cannot foresee even if I know the secrets of all time and the darkness is too powerful, it is a force that resists time much like the light.. That is why the shadow game between Pharaoh Atem and Zorc The Dark One affected the modern world just as it did affect the world of the pharaoh`s memories. Doc Brown and Starlight Glimmer, you both have access to time travel, however, there is a pressing matter. The more time passes, the stronger the darkness becomes, this will eventually make your methods of time travel impossible.. Therefore, I must gift one of you who is willing to take care of the power the power to time travel anywhere anytime provided you know where you want to be. Who wishes to volunteer?" Blaze volunteers and so, Minenabis continues: "BlazeWarriorWolf, you have chosen to take care of something so powerful and important that the forces of evil will seek you to harness it, the darkness cant easily go through time even if it defies it.. Your purity does make you a perfect candidate to receive this gift of divine power, I trust that you can handle the responsibility! And so, I proclaim BlazeWarriorWolf to officially be known as the Protector Of Time until time is brought back to what it was! I will be back if anything goes horribly wrong! I bid you all a farewell and best of luck on your adventure!" Blaze smiles brightly and gives everyone hugs!
Dominic pulls out a pen and paper: "Hey, that was so awesome I might have peed my pants and before I propose something to get us figuring out who did the bad stuff and what time we need to catch them, dont you have trouble with your bladder, Brayden? Its been so long that I have forgotten.." "Yeah and you might have a minor bladder issue but who knows?! You can easily test yourself to find out anyway. Thanks to all of you, I am now able to live okay even with my having that ussye! Okay, we shall hear your idea now!" "Im a derp who gets lazy a lot so of course I forgot! Moving on, here is my idea: we get together as a group to brainstorm, Im sure one of us can make a good inference about what time of day of the earliest incident which happened towards midnight we have to go to without having to spend all day in the past! Also, thanks Brayden for the reminder and for giving the key back to who it belongs to in this timeline! We should begin immediately after we make some iced donuts ourselves, Im glad you showed me Gordon Ramsey, Adam!" "Well Im glad that youre glad! Also, I randomly have the mood to just do Death Metal stuff, maybe I will get to later today, but, lets do all this!"
So by the end of the brainstorm, we agree to split up among the various areas of the hospital(luckily the poison dose was delivered on the day it went into effect) with the aid of our monsters and start watching at 10 PM, 2 hours before things took a turn for the bad for an innocent would be newborn.. After this, me and Blaze just do something interesting and then something else then: boop each other because it's funny! Anyway, we pack up everything and get going to the past! I end up being tasked to hide in the lobby using binoculars and such to pick up on anything suspicious while being hidden behind a plant in an area no one just really bothers going.. My magic interferes with any sensors and cameras that would otherwise detect my presence! Here we go again with me being able to evade some sort of security system, wow Im good at this! This is like total Spy Kids level stuff except time isnt being stopped, its been altered and there are no clones of the same person, some even being vastly different from the original person! By pure chance, spy music is being played on the hospital intercom because of course the Heartland City hospital has a intercom where they play music sometimes, its probably because of Mr. Heartland and Dr. Faker`s interesting ways of pumping people up to distract them from really bad things.. I see a suspicious looking receptionist take their shift and all but they deposit something in a potted flower.. Another person, a janitor picks it up and goes somewhere else.. Through a communication system with the others made quiet by earbuds and headphones(Im wearing my SkullCandy red and black earbubs myself), I whisper what I just witnessed before using a teleporter provided by Dominic to go see what the janitor is up to..
They go in a closet and then come out with another person who is a nurse carrying the same thing.. By now me and some others had come together to watch and so we update everyone else before secretly following the nurse who is about to go into a room with the suspicious package where Dr. Faker and whoever his wife is/was are, but, Brayden had been standing by the door so he traps the nurse in one of his green magic bubbles he can do due to having been given so much training to become Miitopia`s Great Sage! Having disabled all security nearby, we as a group teleport outside the hospital and again update the others who then teleport out(Dominic is a legend okay, he has created so many inventions, the portable teleporters are so dang useful)! Brayden frees the nurse who then says: "NO! The plan! Its ruined! We were supposed to succeed too and then continue doing it without getting caught! You are all lucky my master Fluffy Afro will not intervene! But, your adventure ends here! I challenge the musicians among you to a music battle, the music will determine who wins and who loses! Heres my song, try to beat this!" They play a mix of Pop, Rap, and modern Country while rap talking: "Here I am, a thorn at their side! Conform, ruin time, praise capitalism, hail Fluffy Afro!" It goes on and on but Im not going to bore anyone with what resulted and skip right to where things get heavy!
I play upright bass while screaming as we respond with some Technical Industrial Funk Metal(also including keyboards and synthesizer plus bass guitar, drums, lead guitar, and rhythm guitar): "This doesnt have to be a proper song! Mask on, use your brain! Pandemics require great effort to overcome! Let the norms die, fade away, rot into nothing, leaving behind damage that has to be repaired! Thy life force is fragile, you only really live once and then its pretty much over in the mortal realm! Ive been consumed by fear, anger, greed, and sadness, but not this time! You have no idea how many times I have let emotions be unexpressed and suddenly bursting! Dont care about rhyming, thats a bit overrated anyway! Freedom is the true luxury, not money, not anything else! Maybe I think too much, but, at least Im a free thinker unlike some people I know including a person I loved for all my life and lost respect for when I found out they are racist! Bigotry aint cool, make it go away, be exterminated with the platforms of the human pests who create problems on so many Earth worlds! Its 2020, reality sucks, even when it wasnt altered, it still did! Metal, Rock N Roll, furry, Punk, roller coasters, education, and video games, lead us to a better future, a future where maybe we can prevent devastating damage from the climate crisis! Express the freedom of thought, you know we all have it! Sick riff time, hit it y`all! Born between North and South, I know what its like to have an interesting culture in a city of immigrants from Germany, Ireland, Africa under technicality, and more! Lets make the end of this song really slap hard! Pick up the speed and the aggression, its gonna be a banging finale!"
The improvised song ends 30 seconds later and well, the enemy`s music had little effect on us but our music defeated them completely, they drop the package as the evil vanishes.. Dominic teleports the nurse back in time with the help of Blaze to where they need to be in time as I use light magic remotely on the other possessed people to free them! With the whole operation busted in just under 30 minutes, we all head back to the present day where things have come back and Yuma gets excited with the key for now around his neck! I then have a light bulb moment before saying: "Well, we did it together as a team! HIgh five everyone! It looks like everything is back to how it should be and since we corrected time, that technically means everything that happened yesterday pretty much never happened for 95% of things! The paradox involved means the whole medic possession incident never occurred! Now, isnt it time for you to go to school, Yuma?" "Oh wait, yeah! Im late! Im late! Bye see you guys later! Aaaaa! Come on Astral!"
He runs off with Astral floating along sweat dropping(they are still together for safety, they shouldnt be connected by the key anymore) and I say to everyone else: "Haha, silly Yuma! Now then, I believe we should all split up and talk to everyone Yuma knows who isnt at school about whats happening, I believe we need to figure out if Yuma and Astral will be able to come with us and maybe some others too.. I volunteer talking to his family! We will meet up in 2 hours before heading to Twisted Land for a while because something tells me that it has resisted the change in time, it should be safe there to plan for our next adventure.. I didnt think Twisted Land could be unaltered, but, I exist, I did build it, and I have my iPad which I have built it on! See you all soon!" So with that, we split up once again and I go visit Yuma`s grandmother and sister! His sister, Kari answers the door and asks: "Who are you and what do you want? Did Yuma invite someone random over on a school day when he isnt even home?" I answer: "Well, did Yuma tell you about how he saved the multiverse? If so, you should know about Kind Warrior Adam aka me!" "Wait, youre the one who wears outfits that people find outrageous right and the leader correct? Long red hair and everything! Sorry about that! Come in, come in!" "Alrighty! I need to talk to you and your grandma about something very dire.."
I sit down with Kari and her/Yuma`s grandma at the dining room table I have: "Okay, you will need to hear this in full as if I were giving a presentation.. Yesterday morning, myself and some others woke up with the worlds around us drastically changed.. Mine was ruled by the SDL who was not defeated in the alternate multiverse timeline.. Yuma woke up to a Heartland where he and some others were never born due to being poisoned before even being born.. You may not remember it at all, but, we went on a quest to restore the timeline and to tell ya the truth, it was rather something! We managed to prevent 2 key events that altered the timeline to where the Barians were getting much closer to destroying a Astral World still divided from Barian World, the poisoning is prevented and things are restored on this Earth and the 2 other worlds.. Given the circumstances, there is still much that needs to be dealtered before the multiverse is right on track.. Of course, I found out a while back that some time traveler from the future went back in time back to long before I was born to create this rather cool and also wack thing that led me to being transformed.. Luckily, time was not altered a considerable moment to my knowledge from that especially since I gave up the title and power willingly.. I had to get back into fighting evil mode due to the alterations that have altered so much starting when infiltrating a factory where the neighborhood I live in should be.. We need as much help as we can get, but, there is one problem with getting as much help as possible from here and the Astral World citizens of pure heart.. The Barians are still attacking and advancing even with the defeat of Don Thousand and such.. So we need to figure out who can be sent with me and the others and who gets to stay and defend Earth and the light side of the fused Astral World.. So what are your thoughts?"
Kari replies: "Yuma must go with all of you along with Astral while the rest of us take care of those Barians and give them a stern lecture! I know I believe you, no one has seen you with that sword on you in nearly a year!"(I forgot I put the sword on me with my backpack additionally on my back, oops) Haru(the name of Grandma Tsukumo) nods and adds: "Im sure our sweet Yuma will be able to help you better then anyone else! Isnt that right, Kari?" "Yes grandma, we have really been believing in him ever since that first time at the dojo owned by Master Roku, Yuma has really grown so much! I will use my skills to speed along the information gathering and sharing for the fight towards the Barians! It looks like thats all you want from us, Adam! Safe travels!" "Aww thank you! See ya both, maybe we can have a massive get together larger then a fair number of furry conventions whenever the pandemic is truly over or we all manage to test negative for Covid! Time for me to leave, it has been a pleasure! Bye!" I then head out and go to a cafe in Heartland City to have a nice meal to eat and while I do get a lot of looks for my outfit, I ignore them, enjoy my meal, and take in the scenery around me before it is time to meet up with the others!
When me and the others meet up, I inform them of what Kari and Haru said and find out that everyone basically believes the same exact thing, talk about having a massive support group! Good for Yuma, that is beyond awesome! With everyone`s belongings gathered and Yuma`s support group all coming to say goodbye quickly, Blaze then takes himself and our little task force to Twisted Land! And what do you know?! It is very unaffected by time, I think the park has such a strong connection with me that it was left unaltered! I lead everyone to the Twisted Land hotel and inform them: "Twisted Land looks pretty awesome but also very meh in a lot of places like with the hotel rooms, but, we can renovate the rooms for now to fit ourselves and others later on! The plan was to stay here for a month, but, we might just get back to adventuring in less that time, I have no clue whatsoever, but, Im glad to have all of you around and to really enjoy wearing diapers while also kicking evil being butt!" After that, we hang out throughout most of the park, ride most of the rides(I physically cannot see or go to parts of the park in parallel to an issue with the Minecraft world) including Boardwalk Tower, High Striker, Crazy Coaster, and Toliet Spiral Coaster, and end the day on a high note!
Authors Notes: Thats the chapter! Im so glad I got to use Twisted Land in a story, it is a passion of mine to try to get back to work on the park once again and I hope you all liked seeing a taste of Twisted Land! Relieved that I have found a writing schedule that doesnt crush me when writing this story while also drawing daily just about! Im back in action and so glad to be! I might actually get another chapter out this month, I have no idea! Been neglecting to make YouTube videos due to writing this so Im gonna start doing that again lol! That is everything for this first chapter, bye bye and make sure to always follow your dreams and be yourself!
