Pocket Dimension pt 1
After the telling of my past life I was lead around the Ark, though I am told that they are working on making a new one. Other than the ability to go pretty much anywhere in the world the Ark is pretty much like my pocket dimension. I tell them as such and now they want to see it for themselves to which I chuckled slightly. Snapping my fingers a tall slightly crocked and misshapen door appears.
"Ah before we go in I should warn you I didn't just bring objects with me." With that as their only warning I open the doorway. As soon as we step through they can see we are now in a wide open area of land that stretches out as far as the eye can see. To the left was a grand forest and to the right a very large body of water with cascading waterfalls from the mountainous area beside it. There was a large castle off in the distance surrounded by smaller buildings making it look like a town.
"You have an entire world in your pocket?" Said Road as she looks all about.
"Well perhaps. The more powerful my magic was the more my pocket dimension expanded." I was cut off from explaining more from a roar off in the distance. When the others looked towards the roar their mouths dropped open.
"I-is that an actual dragon?!" said a disbelieving Road
"Chinese Fireball to be exact. I also brought unicorns, centaurs, goblins, occumy, demiguise, acromantula but they are mainly only here for the silk and to feed the dragons, and a variety of other magical creatures."
"You have unicorns?!" Yelled out Road, and surprisingly Devit and Skin, in excitement.
I nod before moving my head slightly to the left just before a snow white owl landed on my right shoulder and yelled in my ear with a loud PREK. "I'm sorry but it took longer than I thought" she gives me a look "Hey I was introducing myself to my family" she preks again "Oh that is a low blow, you know you are family to me"
Tyki leans over to Wisely "Is he really arguing with an owl?" Wisely looks amused but nods "I believe he is."
"Ah fine. Everyone this lovely lady is Hedwig. Hedwig this is the Earl of Millennium , Tyki Mikk, Sheril Kamelot, Wisely, Fiedla, Maushyma, Skin Bolic, the adorable Road Kamelot" Sheril pulls Road behind him and glares at me slightly "Devit and Jasdero, Lulu Bell and Maitora." She gives them a stare down as if judging their very souls then hoots. "She approves of you" I said exasperatedly
"Kufufu pleasure to meet such an intelligent Lady.~" The earl says as if judgmental, mother hen, owls were an everyday occurrence.
"Anyway you all can see the magical critters later if you want so long as you do not kill any of them. Alright? Good good now I don't feel like walking so Dobby, Mitsy, Tippy, Kreacher, Winky!" With five small pops there were now five house elves before us.
"What the hell are those?!" Proclaimed Skin as he looked at the small, big eyed, long eared creatures.
"We be it House Elves Mister Angry Sir" said Dobby this caused a few of the others to snicker "How can we helps you Master Harry"
"As Dobby said they are House Elves. Anyway Dobby could you Mitsy. Tippy, Kreacher, and Winky take them to the town."
"Oh yes master Harry sir!" He said excitedly before walking to the others "Sirs and misses be grabbing our hands" They do so but mostly out of curiosity. I myself place a hand on Road and with a POP all of us are no inside the town.
The others look a bit quesy "W-was that supposed to feel like being dragged through a small tube?" Asked Tyki after getting his balance back.
"Yep, magical transportation while convenient sucks" I chuckle. As they look around they can see goblins, centaurs, and a few witches and wizards walking about.
"You keep humans in your dimension?" Skin said with a grunt.
"A few who I liked or needed to take care of things. Hm do you all feel any hatred for them? I mean these are humans from a different world so" I let my sentence hang there and then they all come to the realization that no they don't feel the deep seated hatred for these humans as they do for the ones in their own world. They tell me this and I chuckle slightly.
"Ah 'Arry you have returned!" Coming towards us was a beautiful blonde woman with a smile etched across her face.
"Yes Gabrielle, finally managed to get away from your sister did you?"
She giggles "Yes I got away. She has been overprotective of me for years since the twi wizard tournament incident"
I then introduce her to my new family "It is a pleasure to meet you all" She says giving a curtsy to the group.
"So how many… People did you bring with you?" Road asked curiously.
"Well I brought Sirius, the Tonk's family, Remus though honestly Sirius convinced me to bring him, Fred, George, Ginny, Bill, and Charlie Weasley, The Delacours, Narcissa Malfoy, Flitwick, Snape, The Flamels, Neville, Luna Lovegood and her father, Hermione and her family because she wouldn't leave without them, The Bone's, Daphne Greengrass, Tracy Davis, Professor Sprout, Sinestra, Septima, Slughorn, and Hagrid along with some other people I met on my travels and a few others I needed to take to help take care of the creatures and plants. Some of those I named were only brought with because of their expertise in some fields such as Sinestra, Septima and Slughorn."
"I thought you didn't like that Snape fellow also why didn't you bring that McGonagall woman you mentioned since she was the head of your house?"
"Well the McGonagall issue was simple. She brushed me aside in my first year when I told her about the stone. In second year she did nothing to get my own housemates from treating me like a pariah because of being a parseltongue, Flitwick at least tried to reign in his Ravenclaws, in fourth year she was one of those who thought I put my name in the goblet simply because she thought my father would have done it, and right before my detention with Umbridge I went to her to tell her about my suspicions that the toad was going to try something and she simply told me to 'keep my head down'. That and she was one of those who left me with the Dursleys never once checked on me despite telling Dumbles that they were the worst sort of muggles. I can let Hagrid slide on that because he honestly isn't fully there" I point to my head "that and he honestly tried to make a connection with me at Hogwarts unlike McGonagall."
"As for Snape yes he was one of the reasons my parents were killed but that was all orchestrated by Dumbles. He was harsh on me in school simply because he couldn't act like he liked me least the other 'former' death eaters find out. But he did save me in first year from being thrown from my broom. That and in third year he actually put himself in front of me and my friends when Remus began turning into a werewolf so that if attacked he could defend us. I later learned that werewolves were one of Snapes biggest fears so for him to do something like that to protect us gained him a lot of respect from me. He has been working for me by focusing on his potion research ever since I stood up for him at his trail. He has had great breakthroughs honestly."
"I also didn't bring Draco despite him being Narcissa's son. That is because he had deep hatred for me when his father 'suddenly' was announced dead. He wouldn't listen to his mother and tried to attack me from behind so I had him sent to Azkaban instead of killing him as a favor to his mother. He never changed his ways and continued to stay a hate filled bigot up to the day we left."
"I didn't bring Ron, his mother, father, or Percy either. Ron, I didn't bring because of his jealousy and anger which he never got over after my reveal in fifth year. He kept going on telling about how much of a glory seeking bastard I was. As for his mother she thought the entire thing with Dumbles was a lie despite the evidence and she turned her back on me and even tried to get all her children to do the same. His father was so whipped by Molly that he didn't even try to stop her at all and even threw his children out the family when they wouldn't listen to her. Which is a shame because I did like Arthur. As for Percy well he was all about promoting that I was an attention seeking liar in fifth year and he was the one who gave Umbridge the area in which I lived that led to her sending the dementors"
"I also took Hogwarts which is that big castle over there. Along with the surrounding lands around it so I could get all the creatures. It was the single most draining thing I have ever done in my entire life. Even with all my abilities and high magic power it took a great deal to move miles of land, with all the creatures and leylines, into my pocket dimension. I was weak for days" My shoulders slumped
"Oh it wasn't all bad 'Arry" butted in Gabrielle "At least you had us to help you feel better~" She says in a sultry tone. I chuckle while scratching my cheek as I remember the 'massages' that my lovers gave me after the transfer.
I then took my new family around the town showing them all kinds of things the magical and mundane world had. Televisions, radios, computers, flying carpets and brooms, game systems, Skin really liked Honeydukes and left with a large pile of candies.
"Humans in your time really made all this stuff?" Asked Wisely who seemed very interested in the apothecary and the carpets.
"Yes, though if the humans of this world are still alive by the 20th century I am making sure the atom bomb never gets made. That was one of the reasons why my world was on the verge of destruction."
"What's an atom bomb" Asked Wisely so I summon a large screen and show them the bombing of Hiroshima
"That was one of the first ones. They got bigger and more destructive later but the real issue was the radiation that saturated the lands killing off any organic life and makes the land incapable of sustaining it for years, if ever." I added that last part when some of them looked thoughtful of it's destructive ability. "So they 'destroyed' their 'enemies' but on the other side they made an entire area unlivable for anything..."
Without warning a pulse of magic spreads out from Hadrian into the surrounding area. The world around them began to shimmer like air over a fire. Music began to play from the surroundings "Oh no!" Gabrielle quickly pulls out a device from her bag and speaks into it "Hadrian is going into song. Brace yourselves" Her voice came out around the tone through the speakers.
Tyki found himself in his human form with his miner clothes on, messy hair and glasses. Along with him sitting at a bar next to Hadrian. The other Noah and Gabrielle would also find themselves in the same bar sitting at tables. All but Gabrielle looked confused at what is going on especially at how Tyki got switched out of his Noah form and into his human form along with clothes.
(The Other Side. The Greatest Showman)
"Right here, Right now. I put the offer out. I don't want to chase you down but I know you see it." Hadrian said as he held a glass of whiskey while looking over at Tyki who also found out he had a glass of whiskey in his hands as well. "You run with me and I can cut you free out of the drudgery and the walls you keep in" Hadrian held out his hand a lump of coal formed "So trade that typical for something colorful" He squeezed the coal and then opened his finger showing a gem radiating a rainbow of colors. "And if it's crazy, live a little crazy" He flips the gem into the air and it turns into bird with 7 tail feathers each a different color and flies off. "You can play it sensible, a king of conventional" He places a paper crown on Tyki's head "Or you can risk it all and see"
Hadrian gulps down the whiskey in his glass before hopping out his stool and Tyki turns and watches. "Don't you want to get away from the same old part you play" He kicks the stool he was sitting on and it slides perfectly to the table that Road, Gabrielle and the Earl were sitting at. "Cause I got what you need so come with me and take a ride" He jumps forward placing one hand on the stool in a hand stand before flipping off it and landing on his feet on the table. "It'll take you to the other side. Cause you can do like you do" a miners pickax appears in his hand and he points it at Tyki before he makes it vanish. "Or you can do like me" Gabrielle stands up and offers her hand. Hadrian takes it and kisses it. "Stay in the cage or you'll finally take the key" A key appears on the table "Oh damn your free to fly" He jumps off the table all the way to the bar where he lands in another stool next to Tyki. "It'll take you to the other side"
Now Tyki began to sing along "Okay my friend, you want to cut me well I hate to tell you but it just won't happen." He stands up and walks over towards the Earl and Road "So thanks but no I think I'm good to go" He takes a jacket that appeared on the table along with the Earls hat which revealed his long bunny ears. "Cause I quite enjoy the life you say I'm trapped in." He says while putting on the hat and jacket before walking back over to Hadrian "Now I admire you and that whole show you do. You're onto something really it's something" he brushes dust off Hadrian's shoulder. "But I live among the swells and we don't pick up peanut shells. I'll leave that up to you"
A cane appears in Tyki's hand "Don't you know that I'm okay with this uptown part I get to play. 'Cause I got what I need and I don't need to take the ride" He twirls the cane while while smirking "I don't need to see the other side. So go do like you do" he points the cane at Hadrian "I'm good to do like me" he downs the whiskey from the glass on the counter then grabs the key "Ain't in a cage so I don't need to take the key" he places the key in Hadrian's pocket "Oh damn! Can't you see I'm doing fine. I don't need to see the other side" He then began to walk towards the door
"Now is this really how you want to spend your days" Hadrian grabs Tykis shoulder and turns him towards the bar before gesturing to the bar "Whiskey and misery and parties and plays"
Tyki smirks "If I was mixed up with you I'd be the talk of the town. Disgrace and disowned another one of the clowns" he points his cane to the Earl
"But you would finally live a little, finally laugh a little" The laughter drama mask appears in Hadrian's hand and he briefly places it against his face before tossing it aside and grabbing Tyki by the arm and walking him back to the bar "Just let me give you the freedom to dream and it'll wake you up and cure aching. Take your walls and start em breaking. Now that's a deal that seems worth taking" A contract forms on the table "But I guess I'll leave that up to you"
Tyki taps his nail on the table while looking at the contract "Well it's intriguing but to go would cost me greatly. So what percentage of the show would I be taking?"
Hadrian sighs "Fair enough, you'd want a piece of all the action. I'd give you seven we can shake and make it happen" he holds out his hand.
"I wasn't born this morning, eighteen would be just fine"
"Why not just go ahead and ask for nickels on the dime"
"Fifteen"
"I'd do eight"
"Twelve"
"Maybe nine"
"Ten"
Tyki holds out his hand. Hadrian thinks it over for a second then shakes his hand. Tyki goes back into his noah form with his suit on instead of miner clothes and no glasses.
Together they sing "Don't you wanna get away to the whole new part you're gonna play" They hop on the bar table and began to dance "Cause I got what you need so come with me and take the ride" The whole area changes again to a large circus tent. "To the other side" They began to walk as the other Noah's were doing things now. They pass the twins with Devit holding his hands up with Jasdero doing a hand stand on Devit's palms "So if you do like I do" Says Hadrian while flipping a top hat that lands on his head "So if you do like me" Tyki says while letting the Earls hat roll down his arm to his hand before placing it back on his head.
They began singing in sync again "Forget the cage because we know how to make the key" The Earl jumped through a hoop of fire with Wisely balancing on a rope coming out of a wick basket "Oh Damn! Suddenly we're free to fly." Skin was doing lion taming while Lulu was messing with panthers. "We're going to the other side." Sheril and Road were on the trapeze "So if you do like I do" Just Hadrian while Maitora was sitting on top of an elephant. "So if you do like me" says Tyki, Maushyma was lifting 1 ton weights near Skin, then they sync up again "Cause if we do we're going to the other side!" Fiedla was breathing fire and Toraido was swallowing a sword. "We're going to the other side" Hadrian and Tyki put an arm over the others neck as they turned to face all the others. Then the music stopped and the world went back to usual with all of them standing in the middle of town again.
… "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!" Yelled the twins
