It was a bland day in the workshop with few customers, and those that did come actually walked on in came on accident which I found quite rude. kids these days I thought as the common saying went around though there are probably millions of those. I was wearing a plain white tank top along with some blue jeans, and I had my spectacles on so I could inspect any devices with it. I was about to go close the shop when someone came in trying to escape from the recent rain that started about an hour ago.
"Oh...why hello there I would like to get this repaired before you close up sir." he asked surprisingly polite which I found suspicious though I didn't show it just in case it was nothing.
"Okay I'll get it repaired for you, but if I may ask...what is it exactly you would like me to work with?" I smiled as I asked this in my Italian accent.
"Oh don't worry it's just a watch, but I'll also like this blade repaired if it's possible?" he asked as he pulled out a sword in the shape that an hand on a grandfather clock is.
(I couldn't find a better picture, but if you do stumble upon a better one please tell me.)
"Well I absolutely can, but why do you need this repaired it looks just fine by the looks of me?" I asked as I inspected the blade in my hand.
"It's suppose to interlock with multiple magnetic components, but that doesn't seem to be working at the moment." he replied as I tried to find what he was talking about.
"I'll have it fixed by next week, so just swing by if you need anything else, but I have to ask where'd you get it sir?" I asked politely as I pondered what exactly was happening, and why he'd just hand something like this over.
"It was custom made for a gift if I met someone willing to have it, but the blade is suppose to resemble Noximilien from a show called Wakfu." he replied as if it was just normal to give things like this away. he's either just being nice or he's hiding something
"Well then I'll take it, and if anyone stumbles upon this shop then I'll give it to them." I replied with a smile as I thought of other things I could do.
"That would be perfect, but I'll still drop by next week to see if you managed to actually find somebody interested, and to see it works like it's suppose to." with that he stood still in wait for me to finish tinkering with his watch.
It took about 15 minutes to finish up with his watch, but as he was leaving he turned back to me and said "I've heard a rumor that kids cosplay then randomly disappear, so if you got kids just make sure they avoid testing that rumor." with that he left before I could reply.
What was with him......I can think on that later, but that rumor he talked about seems to be more than just a rumor......I'll check it out and dress as Noximilien for the next convention, so I could catch the culprit or see if they truly focus on one age group. I then looked up at the clock to see it was 11:36 PM which was about an hour after I normally close and call it a day. I guess time has its own way of doing things, but alas I don't have that kind of influence as I don't have the influence to not make this like on of those plays. I tend to be dramatic just to humor myself, so I don't think on certain thoughts, but no one can avoid depression it always comes at one point in someone's life. I'll just go to bed and leave it at that. I then started walking down the stairs to the basement where I sleep. Drifting off to sleep as I pondered what is to come of the kids at the convention, but I hope that this 36 year old man will be able to save them.
It was 5:30 AM when I woke up and began groping for my glasses which I found on the floor for some odd reason. I then went upstairs to the workshop to start setting up as I casually loaded up everyone's trusty friend known as Google to look up different characters from video games and shows, so I could make some custom made objects to get those teens to come here. I was no blacksmith, but tinkering with tools did give me knowledge on design, and by looking at so many different objects it wasn't very hard to make them by just constructing the original design. I of course dressed up as my favorite childhood villain Noximilien the watchmaker to try and attract customers going to the convention in two weeks time. I did attract some kids trying to get some weapon props from Wakfu which I had a surplus of at the moment. There were people dressing up as a Masqueraider, a Feca, and oddly enough an Ecaflip, but what I found surprising this girl actually looked like one with the tail not looking limp, but it wasn't exactly moving around much. I had to sell a set of different masks along with some assortment of weapons along with the Feca gauntlets, but the Ecaflip girl just looked around without buying anything so I guess she just tagged along with them.
"So how are you today it seems your looking to go to the convention in two weeks from now." I asked them as they began to strut towards me with the items they want to buy, but the Ecaflip girl bought nothing.
"I'm doing fine, and you would be correct on the convention are you going too by any chance?" the Feca asked as he put the gauntlet on the counter next to the register.
"Your assumption would be correct, but are you by any chance informed of a rumor that's floating around about kids going missing?" I asked them as I took his money and removed the tag from the item, so he could leave without tripping the alarm.
"I have a vague idea of it, but I'm not to sure on the details." the Ecaflip said as she started leaning over the counter trying to look sexy, but honestly I wasn't to big on that fetish for cat girls.
"Well just be careful it has been causing quite the controversy, but I do have some extra things in the back if you'd like I could go grab them." I replied in a metallic tone through my mask trying to sound polite yet intimidating at the same try.
"Sounds perfect, lets see what you have in store." the Masqueraider answered almost emotionlessly clearly in character with what he was. I then went to the backroom to grab the real weapons that functioned similarly to how the ones in the game would.
"You, the girl dressed as an Ecaflip I have a deck of cards that are magic...for example..." I then grabbed one of the cards and threw it, but then pressed a button on the card pack "the cards if thrown can be used for many purposes such as being used as throwing knives, but is powered by magnetism to return to its wielder if you press a button...mainly this one."
"THAT IS SO COOL I WANT IT NOW! " she then jumped over the counter and slammed into me with her mouth drooling.
"Yes you may have it, but I'm not giving you a discount for trying to seduce me with your chest." I said as she was rubbing me like I was a large bar of soap.
"Fine, but how much is it?" she asked as she got off of me with a little pouty face to try and guilt trip me.
"150 dollars, but if your Feca friend buys this gauntlet and gives me the one he just bought you could reduce the price for both of your items by 50 dollars each." I replied while holding the real gauntlet in my left hand.
"Deal." they all said in unison while giving me 200 dollars as payment and the gauntlet from the Feca.
"I'm sorry, but the Masqueraider doesn't really have bonus items that I'm aware of, so I couldn't make anything special for you." I said to the boy dressed as the Masqueraider which seemed to disappoint him slightly, but he stayed in character and didn't express much.
"Don't worry much I'm sure your not the only one selling stuff, so were sure to find something come on lets go." the Feca said calmly as the group began to walk out of the shop.
"Have a good day, and I hope to see you at the convention." I waved them off as they closed the door, but I didn't hear anything from them so I guess they didn't hear me or it's just their custom. I looked at the clock now seeing that they were here for about two hours which I found quite odd, but I brushed it off as I prepared myself for more customers.
It's the day of the convention, and I bolt out of bed, and get dressed as Nox. I walk up the stairs as I look around to see if I forgot anything, but nothing was missing except the blade I left behind the counter for me to grab. I walk out the door and lock it behind me, then I get in my car and drive away towards my destination.
It took about 30 minutes to get there, and I had to stop for gas once, so it took a bit longer. I did however meet some people dressed up as characters from Tribes Ascend which was a pretty old game that was supposedly dead, but there car certainly resembled that of a warthog which I found quite odd. They were the only ones I really took notice though, but I could've swore I saw Alucard maybe it was my imagination. I managed to throw myself into the building without being ran over by millions of Halo fans like they were a united army, but I just shrugged it off and continued looking around hoping to see anything else interesting. Then the weirdest things began happening as my vision blurred and images of different people flashed in front of me each dressed as some person from a game or a show. The things I saw all had one thing in common though each one dressed as a character from a game or show, and was whisked away some how, but the real question was how did I see all of them now when the dates of their disappearance were so different that if they all met in the same time they'd be dead or really old. I guess this kidnapping is more than just a crime, and something is doing it, but first I must buy something here that's related to my character to find them. This was when realization dawned on me...the kids I sold the items too were now in this other world, and now it's time to go bring them back. I walked over to different stalls hoping to find something, but only one of them had any relevance, and this one was manned by a hooded figure with a sly smile.
The Time God of Equestria
I stroll on over to this merchant to see if he has any connections to the missing children, and possibly see if buying something will cause me to be whisked away to Hogwarts...or where ever those people are. At this point in time it's quite clear that this merchant has a strong connection to the missing people, but I don't have any idea if he plays an active or passive role in this dilemma.
"Why hello good sir. How are you doing today?" I say to him to try and get on his good side which may end well if he doesn't have an active role in the kidnappings, but otherwise...I'm dead.
"Well what a pleasant surprise, a customer. I'm doing fine thank you, but business has been becoming a little slow as of late." he responds in kind in a pleased tone, but what he says confirmed one thing for me. He does have an active role in this. With this in mind I'll try and keep him from doing anything so I'll just engage in some small talk and possibly buy something from him
"Well that's good to hear." I say with no thought of what to say next...on one hand if I confront him I'll probably die...on another if I leave things be he'll kidnap more people and probably kill them hence why they're never found in theory. I keep thinking to myself as his smile begins to turn to a frown.
"Well then...I guess I'll just do things the hard way." he mutters to himself. I then take a step backwards cautiously, then he jumps forward and grabs my sword for a mere second before letting go.
"What was that for?" I ask him worried that he may've done something, but he just began laughing at me.
"You are a fool for confronting me despite knowing who I am and you will pay for It." he says to me smiling as I feel myself being pulled into the ground.
"What are you?!" I yell out at him before I disappear permanently.
"I'm but a mere merchant." he says with a smile before everything went black.
(Nox POV/ Time: 3:45 P.M.)
I stir from unconsciousness only to find myself in the middle of nowhere...Well at least it isn't a desert. I look around the grassy plains I've wound up in to try and spot some sort of landmark to figure out where I might be. With this in mind it didn't take long until I saw a mountain in the distance from where I was which meant I was somewhere near the Corno Grande judging on the terrain. I was probably wrong with my assumption, but it's the best I've got at the moment. This means that I'm somewhere between 100 miles to 50 miles away from the Atlantic ocean so I won't be able to walk along the shore until I find a town. At the moment I don't see a river I could follow instead...at this point I may as well go for the mountains and hope that some hikers find me, but that can end in a lot of ways and not all are good.
"All right then." I mumble to myself none too quietly as I begin walking in some random direction. As I keep walking my vision begins to blur, I then start to feel a pounding headache until I fall over clutching my head. Then all of it went away suddenly as I black out.
(Nox POV/Time: ??? ??)
What is this?! I get up and see before me is a mirror image of me in a giant clockwork contraption with the body being in the shape of a giant watch with arms protruding from the sides along with four spider-like legs at the base. What I found strange wasn't the machine, but that the other me was floating there with some blue aura enveloping his body as he controlled the mechanism. Then out of the blue the kids I saw from my workshop some time ago burst forth from some wall all dressed up in their cosplay, but each one was using some form of magic. The other me just sat there unimpressed as he gazed at these teenagers. I for the most part am quite surprised at this development.
"It's nice you came onboard I was beginning to get worried that you wouldn't come." he said with his arms spread wide, but the only response he got was a playing card thrown at him. Then when the card reached his body it exploded without any warning or sign of gunpowder igniting...was that magic? At this point I may be seeing visions of the future and quite frankly I'm inclined to believe it...if this is my future self does that mean I could fly?!
"Dice Roulette ." announces the cat girl, but as soon as she said that the entire room lit up in flames forming a roulette wheel. Then a dial appeared on the board and started spinning...odd I thought they used dices or some ball. The dial then stopped pointing at my future self, which caused him to be consumed by a large pillar of fire. When I saw him again when the fire dispersed he didn't come out without a scratch bits of his armor was completely gone and others were melting off yet he wasn't dead...first he's flying, then walks through an explosion, and now this...at this point I'm not surprised by anything anymore.
"Well then little one...I surely didn't expect that attack to hurt me so." he said to the cat girl, then he just started laughing maniacally...will I really go this mad with power or will my fate change from me viewing this? I just ponder what to do for myself until I see him drop to the ground.
"If I die today then remember this if you are in need of help then form a token and throw it as hard as you can into the air." with this he disappeared from the world.
"What does this mean?" I mused to myself I then felt something impact the back of my head as I was dragged away.
(Nox POV/ Time: 7:45)
I awake from my sleep with my head clear devoid of any pains that should've been there...I never moved from where I blacked out...what's happening. I then began to notice that my entire body was a glowing a faint blue energy...I'm going to assume that it's Wakfu or some form of magic possibly. I began my walk once more, but this time with a purpose. While walking I began focusing on this energy to try and lift my body up...it still isn't working...I'll try again later. I wonder how my little visions work are they brought forth from another or from myself. If they were brought up and controlled by another how would I go about contacting them, or how would I be able to discover what form of visions they can send me or when...what happens to my body here in the present does time just stop while I'm in my daze or does my body lie there vulnerable while I witness my visions. If the visions are produced from myself, then why'd they appear now and how would I go about controlling said ability...there are too many questions for just one ability I can't begin to start on the many others that I now know of...though that was my future self so maybe I have yet to acquire them...that's always a possibility.
"Why now? Why me? Who am I really? These are the few of many questions that are the most important yet the most irrelevant. People always questions things in order to learn and use that knowledge in order to become better or worse...well, I better get a move on." with this said I began my trek once more through the plains slightly more calm then I was earlier. With my obviously long trek through these plains I began to try experimenting with the Wakfu/magic stuff once more to keep my mind active lest I'll just wander aimlessly...oh the trouble I'd get into when I fall asleep standing up...especially since I tend to sleep walk a lot when this happens. I hate it when that happens my legs get really sore every time I wake up afterwards.
After about what felt like an hour walking despite it probably being more than that I saw the sun beginning to set on the horizon. With this new information I stopped my experimentation and began running. Luckily I see a forest, though slightly deformed there is wood and I have sword...this is probably gonna take a while.

Chapter 2 The Wandering Gambler
(?????? POV/Time 1:15 PM)
Well then...I'm royally fucked...big time...I'm in the middle of nowhere as a completely different species and the only things on my person is a book I found laying next to me when I woke up. My thoughts on the situation is as follows...this is so FUCKING COOL how'd they turn me into an Ecaflip best kidnappers ever...and my other thoughts are god damn it why am I here and not locked up like how kidnappers normally do it so the cops could rescue me, then I could swagger down the street lookin sexy as all hell. Out here quite frankly I won't be found ever and will probably die from thirst before hunger if I don't get a move on...but if I move onwards I could find all sorts of wild animals that will tear me to shreds...the same will probably happen if I stay here though. This situation is utter bullshit how the fuck did they get me while in my friends car...oh...no...it couldn't be them that just ain't right there's probably a logical explanation for this...right?
I'm just going to go on an enthusiastic walk now and possibly find myself a big tittied police girl. With this thought I begin chuckling to myself...if only they were here, that'd be great...let's stray away from those thoughts. Out of boredom I grabbed out the bag I found when I was thrown into this country and began filing through its contents...all I found was a book and some cards...I'm beginning to hate the people who sent me here more and more...but I still think they're awesome. On another note, I mean seriously what am I going to do with a book out in the middle of nowhere, it isn't going to be magic so I can teleport back home. Maybe I should tap my shoes three times and head to Kansas.
If there was any form of civilization in this climate it wouldn't exactly be subtle. With all these rocks and...trees if they can be called that, everywhere it shouldn't be hard to spot a town or a road, hell I'll even take a hiking trail just so I can head back home and grab my phone...then I may or may not come back here for pictures it just seems peaceful. I'm a just keep going through the bag to see if I missed something...nothing...more emptiness...utter bullshit...my phone......with my most recent find my palm impacted my face.
How could people who manage to kidnap me whilst I was in a moving vehicle, genetically modify me to a different species, then send me to another country manage to leave my phone with me. With this revelation I began walking around until I got a remote chance of a signal which would lead me to a house or restaurant, hell even a log cabin, then I could call my parents then go home. Oh well until I find the signal I'll start playing one of the few song I actually downloaded onto my phone.
MUSIC!!!
Good ol' Flogging Molly...also fuck you AT&T your service sucks right now I want a refund. Now that I think about I really should try downloading more songs for when I don't have any service...headphones might be a nice addition...no those would be too obvious how about those Bluetooth earbuds now that'd be cool. With my recent internal debate over with I once again begin my trek through this field.
"Carrow! Is that you?" said a familiar voice as I turn around to see Luđak there in his Masquiraider cosplay on...well it might no longer be cosplay judging by what happened to me.
"Luđak?! You're really here? I don't know where we are do you have any idea?!" I said frantically hoping his knowledge on geography might help us find out where we are.
"We're in the badlands Carrow you gotta be careful and not walk around without a care there could be changlings here!" he said in reply...Changlings?! Why would he say that...oh...I'm not on Earth anymore and this Changling is trying to lure me in...what a dumbass.
"Oh thank goodness your here then Luđak or I would've never figured out where I was." I said in reply as I readied those weaponized cards that guy in the shop gave me. As I began to close in it began to reach its arm out to pull me in. As soon as I was close enough I tried to slash at its eyes. I missed as it apparently saw it coming a mile away...am I really that predictable?
"Why'd you attack me?" he asked with his eyes narrowed, but instead of responding I threw the card at him hoping that he would dismiss the projectile as harmless paper instead of the weapon that it is. I however, was not lucky as he dodged out of the way as he pulled out its whips.
"What did you do to luđak monster!" I screamed at it as I began to charge the creature, but I didn't get far as I was pulled to the ground by its whips.
"I know not where this creature Damien is, but I will take you in for food and offer you to the queen." it stated revealing that my assumption was correct...I hate it when I'm right sometimes. I think this is the part where it knocks me out and drags me to its lair...3...2...1.
(Carrow POV/time: 5:00 pm)
I 'wake up' from my 'uncouncious' state to see that I'm in a large cavern with pods lining the walls like a bee hive, but less organized and appears unyielding in a way. Just to be clear I didn't fall unconscious when the Changling hit me it just hurt like a bitch as it dragged me like a mile across the place. Besides that mini problem...I personally expected more from this place it looks ramshackle like what someone's house after an earthquake.
"Queen Chrysalis I have brought you a creature of unknown race what shall we do with it?" said the Changling stating his question in a monotone fashion.
"What a sec...you drag me here....and you don't even know what the hell your suppose to do with me?!" I yell at him causing him to wince slightly before I continue with a simple statement, "What the fuck is wrong with you?!"
The changeling recoils in fright at my statement, "W-w-well your an unknown species that is sentient and y-you somehow saw through the disguise." despite the changeling stuttering most of the time what he said made sense if this world had a different dominant species...and probably the seeing through disguise was probably something that messed up its plans.
"So I have one question for you creature before we put you to sleep...what are you?" the Queen said to me narrowing its serpentine eyes.
I contemplate this serious question before I come to a reasonable conclusion, "Someone that thinks your fuckin' stupid." I say blatantly causing her to open her eye's with shock.
"Wha-what are you thinking insulting me like this?!" all I do is roll my eyes from this cliche and predictable outburst...not like I was any better earlier...I'm a act like a cliche hero character for a bit. I wonder how long it'll last.
"What is thy evil plan vile creature!" I yell out to them whilst rolling my eyes, but they didn't care for that fact and thought me serious.
"Well soon we shall invade the city of Canterlot, then takeover the entire kingdom!" the queen yelled back to my surprise actually telling me legitimately evil plans...wtf?!
"Oh curse you for I am trapped and unable to stop you!" I yelled back with the enthusiasm of a dead person, but of course she didn't notice my tone and thought I was serious.
"You will be thy prisoner as your pathetic world crumbles!!!" exclaimed the bug queen. I just rolled my eyes once more at her antics.
"But that's where your mistaken for this isn't my world!" I yelled back at her with some seriousness.
"What?! " the changlings shouted at me together...it actually kinda hurt cause the one right next to my ears. Then I got the most wonderful idea.
"How about we make a bet? If your game." I say to them with full seriousness as I wear a smug look on my face.
"I accept now what is this bet?"
The Time God of Equestria
Chapter 3 The Face Behind The Mask
(????? POV/Time ????)
The only thought that crosses my mind is RUN
I need to figure out where I'm going and fast before I get stuck here with those creatures. There must be some border that's out of their territory, unless they're not like normal wolves and don't claim their own territory. But like most lands there must be some area or predator these things won't approach. Possibly not, but I may as well hope so, I can't keep running forever, as more of them are joining in on the hunt.
"Come here beast of masks, if you want the wolves to go past." I heard a voice to my left call out so I of course followed it, and to my surprise a zebra stood there...though judging by what's happening at the moment I really shouldn't be and just be grateful.
"Thank you." I say will hiding behind yet another tree, yet surprisingly the wolves couldn't smell me and just ran past us...well then I found that thing that the wolves won't approach thankfully. I just hope this zebra will actually help me.
"It is of no trouble, but please don't grubble." replied the elusive zebra...is grubble even a word, well in this word it may be?
"So why'd you help me?"
"You are new and can speak, now can I invite you in for a treat." she says back to me.
"That doesn't answer the question." I say blatantly.
"Shut it." responds the zebra with a smile. With the final word said I just followed her into the tree hut that I didn't exactly notice till now.
"Who are you...if you don't mind me asking?" I say while looking around her home. Quite frankly it reminds of Baba Yaga with a these masks and potions...one of the only differences is that the house is stationary.
"My name is Zecora, and please don't touch the flora." replied the elusive zebra with a...Mohawk...I can't believe I didn't notice that earlier. I reach out to grab one of her tribal masks for closer inspection, but just before I could grasp the mask it changed shape and flew to my belt attaching itself to my belt.
"Your decorations are quite interesting to put it simply." I state causing her to swing around and stare at the aforementioned mask which now represents...a small wooden doll. All she does is give me a curious look to how her mask disappeared then starts pulling out assorted items such as a table.
"Thank you for this gesture, but please remove thy vesture." she finally says after pulling out a small chair for me, while looking at the many masks that adorn my body.
"I cannot at this time, but tell me why do you rhyme?" I respond back in similar fashion, this question and response seems to give me the results I'm looking for as I take a seat.
"It is but tradition, do you have strong conviction." she retorts completely oblivious to what I've done with her mask...albeit it was on accident I just don't want her finding out if I can fix it as to not cause any problems.
"My conviction lies with whom I trust, so are you going to be unjust."
"You are speaking so fluently, but can you keep up suently?" she says giving me a cocky grin...what does suently mean? I've never heard of the word. Damn she's good at this...or she's making up words one or the other.
"I may fall from grace, but no matter what I may face I shall fight for thine place." she ponders what I say for a good couple of minutes before she responds seemingly pleased with the conclusion.
"Alright I get the message, you may stay here without pesage." okay at this point I think she's making up words so the rhymes flow better, but at least I have a place to stay until I can find a way back home.
"Thanks for letting me stay, Zecora." I say breaking out of my rhyming pattern...I gotta say it was difficult to make up rhymes on the spot I mean seriously how do people make it look so easy?! Also why'd she let me stay so quickly normally people would try and avoid alien species that could cause them harm. Why is Zecora so trusting of me? I'm not entirely sure though I should probably repay her somehow as thanks.
"It's no problem, would you like some sorghum?" she says handing me a bowl filled with some...grass?
"I thank you for this meal." I say cautiously as I grab a spoon from the table she has set up. With a spoonful of the substance in hand I begin to eat after hours of running...if only I knew what happened.
(Nox POV/Time: 7:30 am)
I finally finish the basic structure of my makeshift home only to see the moon lowering at an alarming rate.
"What the...how is the moon moving that fast?!" I exclaim to myself...I tend to talk to myself a lot for some reason. Anyways onto more important matters I need to find out what universe I'm in, since I'm quite certain the moon doesn't move that fast without some sort of gravitational anomaly happening. At least the moon never moves that fast on the planet earth.
"I shouldn't delve into this matter just yet...but it does bring up some concerns." I then begin to start cutting down another tree so I can build up the walls for the frame, but as I'm cutting I then notice in the distance a castle in they sky...well more specifically on the side of the mountain.
"Oh my god...I'm most certainly not on Earth anymore...what a minute that explains everything! That one person at the convention sells items to people with locaters on them to track them, then he isolates them to drug them so he can somehow send them off to other worlds hence why people have gone missing and have never been found. But with that now discovered the fact still remains how'd he send them here, or possibly is this place actually still in the milkyway galaxy." I kept pondering this as to try and figure out the implications to what this could mean. Until I noticed that loud noises were coming from the other side of the forest.
"This could be a problem..." I say silently to myself, as I begin to stalk through the twisted forest. Then out of no-where a portal appears to my left that drags me to it, as I try and grasp something. Somehow instead of actually grabbing something a sword materialized out of thin air.
"WHAT THE FUUUUUU-" I begin to yell out before I am completely devoured by the mysterious portal. This ought to be interesting.
