Previous Post > > > --------------- > > Louisiana, somewhere deep in the Wookiegetlucky Swamp. > > There we find our roaming band of wanders: Mr. Spooky, the man dressed all in grey that organized this journey; Ronald Arnold Gerrimoto Beeslyhuxtoy, the man dressed all in Red & Yellow who is the carrier of the Hamster know as Little Cat; Chadwick L. Swiss, the merry music maker; Jane Tarzania, the much confessed unwilling participant in all things but she came under he own power anyway & heading up the rear is Catherine Gillespie, purveyor of all things pop culture. > > They are on a quest for an item known only to Mr. Spooky himself. They have been walking around the swamp for a few hours now. Some are starting to think their leader might be lost. > > "Are we lost?" Jane asks. > > "No." > > "But, we've been wandering around for hours." > > "Not all that wander are lost." Catherine said. > > "Nicely said, Miss Gillespie." Mr. Spooky said. > > "Thanks. I read it off a T-shirt once." She replied with a big smile. > > Mr. Spooky shook his head is disbelief. > > Jane sat down on a rock & said "Can we rest for a bit?" Then, wiped the sweat from her brow. > > Mr. Spooky nodded in agreement, so everyone except Spooky sat down, he looked around for something. > > "Are we there yet?" Jane complained. > > "It is not the destination, but the journey." Catherine replied. > > Jane shot an evil look at Catherine & then started to stand up but lost her balance & fell into the water behind her. > > "JANE!" Ronnie yelled out & ran over to where she had fell in. He couldn't see her anywhere. > > Ronnie turned his head in the direction of Mr. Spooky. "Spooky! Jane's fallen in." > > "Fallen in what?" Mr. Spooky asked as he turned to see the rest of his group (minus Jane) leaning over the side of the spit of land they were on searching the water from something. > > "Everyone move aside." He said as he took off his coat & rolled up his right shirt sleeve. > > They did, Spooky knelt down & stuck he arm into the murky water below. He moved it around a few times. Then, he pulled his arm back & in his hand was Jane, she was being pulled up by the back of her blouse. She was covered in vegetation but not all that wet. She also appeared to be breathing a little heavily. Jane just laid there on the ground for a few moments. Ronnie had wrapped himself around her. Mr. Spooky was pulled back down his sleeve & put down on his coat. > > Once Jane pushed Ronnie off her she stood up & Catherine asked "What happen?" > > Jane then shot her an even more evil look & said rather loudly "You were killing people." > > "What?" > > "yeah. I fell into the water & somehow ended up back in Parrodipolis. At least I think it was Parrodipolis. Anyways.. I was in a warehouse where some fighting going on between Catherine & who I think were the Lair Legion." > > "Why was I fighting the Legion?" Catherine asked a bit puzzled. > > "You were talking about how the world had spurned the efforts of you & your grandfather. And that the world must now die because of it & other junk like that." > > "My Grandfather?" Catherine said almost under her breath. > > "Yeah. Sounds like Catherine had turned evil." Ronnie comment almost smugly. > > "I guess so." Jane replied. "The Legion looked to be trying to stop her." > > "Why do you guess?" Ronnie asked. > > "They were different. They weren't like our Legion, I recognized some of them but others I didn't know." > > "They weren't our Legion. They were a Legion of another World." Mr. Spooky said stoically. > > That comment raised a few eyebrows. > > "What?" Jane said. > > "Yes. This Swamp isn't just a swamp. It's a nexus of gateways to the Multiverse." > > "What?" Jane said a little louder this time. > > "Yes. This is not the only universe or dimension in existence. There is a myriad of others out there & you, Miss Tarzania found one." > > "One where Catherine is Evil?" > > "Yes. But, that might not of been the only difference. Their might a multitude of other differences. You only saw a small portion from that world: an different Lair Legion and Catherine being Evil, as you called it." > > "So, we have counterparts on these world?" Catherine said. > > "Yes & no. Not all worlds have the same people on it." > > "Oh great. A possible multiverse of Chad & Ronnie." Jane said under breath. > > "So, in that world I grew up with ..." Catherine started to say but was interrupted by Mr. Spooky. > > "Possibly. Many things could have happened to make you the way you are on that world. Much like many things have happened here on this world to make you who you are here." > > There were a few moments of silence between the group. The only sounds heard were the from the swamp it's self. > > "Ok. I guess this is all possible." Ronnie said. "But where are the Alligators?" > > "What?" > > "Every swamp I've ever seen has had Alligators." > > "Some are still here but others have moved on." > > "Their dead?" Jane said. > > "No, Miss Tarzania. Much like we you fell into to the water & went to another world, they to could travel to another world." > > "Like this one?" Catherine said as she pointed out a spot of the swamp. > > The group all went over & looked into the water, the water was clear enough to see through. They saw an entire world populated with hamsters. In what could only be assumed as the that world's version of Parrodipolis, a war waged on. > > "It looks to be this world's Parody Master is using one of our Alligators to help fight this world's Lair Legion for control on the planet Earth." Mr. Spooky said flatly. > > "Oh, look at the cure little CrazySugarFreakHamster!" Catherine said as she pointed out a bright yellow colored hamster dressed up in a green & orange super suit. The Hamster was bouncing all over the place. > > "Enough of this this we must carry on." Mr. Spooky said as brushed himself off. > > The rest of group got up off the ground & set back off on their trek. Then, Mr. Spooky stopped & asked. "Mister Beeslyhuxtoy. You still have your Hamster, right?" > > Ronnie checked all his pockets, then said "Yes." Little Cat was asleep in one of his coat pockets. > > "Good. We may need him later." Mr. Spooky said & then continued walking. > > "Why?" Jane asked. > > "As I've said before. All will be revealed in time." > > --------------- > > TO BE CONTINUED.... > > --------------- > > > Next Time: More questing & more of the Multiverse!
