Five: Flower Power (AKA, The Dream Quest.)
Falspar stumbled down the dirt road, occasionally accidentally walking backwards or straying off the path.
It was hard to see straight. He shook his head, trying to get rid of the bright and morphing colours and see where he really was.
Turns out, Ponyans aren't really affected by alcohol, and so this method worked rather well.
As soon as he could see again, he noticed a giant sunflower right in front of him. It really was giant; almost five times taller than Dedede.
The top looked rather soft, like could make a rather comfortable bed.
With nowhere else to sleep, he decided that he would stay there for the night.
Using the multiple leaves to help, he made it up rather quickly.
As soon as he got to the top, he flipped onto the petals, rolling down into the middle.
And right into somebody else.
"Hm? Who's there?"
The spider's white eyes flickered open groggily. Falspar froze. The spider's eye widened.
"Aah!" it cried, almost falling backwards off of the flower. "Who in the name of the late Queen Sectonia are you?!"
An idea suddenly popped into Falspar's head.
"I am your dream!" he smiled, waving his stub-like arms around mystically. "I am here to take you on a quest!"
The spider looked at the Ponyan skeptically. "A dream?"
Falspar nodded his head vigorously, still a bit high from the drinks.
The spider crossed his arms.
"I am sorry, but I refuse to believe such a preposterous thing."
"But you don't have to believe!" Falspar cried. "I'm not just any dream, I am the dream that will help you create team Flower Power and destroy the late Queen Sectonia, who has come back from the dead!"
Of course, Falspar hadn't the foggiest idea what he was going on about, but that didn't matter. The spider seemed to believe him.
"Oh my goodness!" he cried. "If that is the case, and her majesty really has come back from the dead, then we must stop her immediately!"
"That's the spirit!" Falspar cried happily. "Now, what is your name?"
"My name is Sir Daranza." The spider answered. "Whatever would yours be?"
"I'm Falspar! Nice to meet you, dude! Now let's go save time and space!"
