The Adventures of Greg and Vlad: The dimensional jump

“Was I just injected with poison, or is that a real horse on the ground?” Gregoth said half confused, “And it has a horn. So it’s a Unicorn?”

Vladimir began walking towards the dead goblins ignoring Gregoth lost in his own train of thought. ’Hmmm, that’s two more kills to the list, placed under the small and pathetic section.’ He thought to himself. He picked up his bloody Battleaxes cleaning off the blood with his fur greaves, then attached them back into their holsters on his waist. He turns around to walk back to Gregoth, but stops on the first step. His mind is racing with questions as he saw the purple unicorn in front of his best friend.

“WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!” Yelled Vladimir.

“It’s a horse with a horn.” Gregoth said as calmly. He was more confused then shocked, “It seems to be unconscious.”

“Why is it so… purple?!” Asked Vladimir walking up to the sleeping creature, “Its literally the most brightest colored being I have ever seen.” Vlad crouched down to get a closer look at the creature’s face.

“Ugh…..” the unicorn mumbled. Vlad sprang up fast and took a few steps away. “Where… where am I?” It began to open its eyes slowly. Vlad froze in position as the horse began to wake up.

‘It… it….. ca… can talk?’ Vladimir whispered to himself, “Hey Greg, did you just hear this thing talk, Or am I crazy?” Vladimir said nervously to his friend.

“I wish, but its apparently real, my friend.” Gregoth said and sighed afterwards. “Hey little creature, I have an answer to you question.”

“Huh….?” The little horse said still woozy,

“Your in the middle a desert with my friend and I. Now I have a question for you.” Gregoth said it a light voice. “How did you get here?” The creature opened its eyes and sprang up on all fours, glaring at Gregoth. Its pupils where small and it looked frightened. “Its ok, we wont hurt you. Just we want to ask you a few questions.” The purple horse did not respond to the question.

Everyone stood frozen for a long moment, until the purple unicorn closed its eyes and took on a different pose. The pose looked like it was concentrating on something. It’s horn began to emit a violet glow and the dust around them was blown away almost immediately. The wizard knew what she was doing, casting a spell. He did not know which one, though he could tell it was an Arcane spell by the violet aurora that began to surround the group. Vladimir broke out of his shocked state and took out a battleaxe.

“Hey you! Stop whatever that you are doing!” Vladimir yelled in a threatening voice. The unicorn never flinched or responded it just kept concentrating. He began to walk up slowly to the unicorn. “This your last warning unicorn! Stop now or feel cold steel in your skull!” He again threatened.

“Don’t scare it anymore than it is Vlad! You don’t know-” Gregoth was cut short of the ignorant barbarian charging at the unicorn.

“CHARGE!” He yelled running fast with his battleaxe above his head then pulled behind his back. The unicorn still did not move, but the purple aurora began to fold into the same bubble shape as the one Gregoth popped. “I warned you!” He said and flung his axe toward the unicorn. It seemed the entire area was in slow motion as the axe made its way toward the forehead of the unicorn. Gregoth tried to reach out and grab the axe, but missed nearly falling to the floor. As the axe came in a few inch distance of the head of the unicorn, Its eyes slowly opened with narrowed pupils glaring the battleaxe. Again, Vlad’s axe throwing skills had failed once more. The end of the handle hit the tip of the unicorn’s horn, causing a explosion of violet energy to be spread throughout the bubble. Then, the same bright purple flash accrued once again as the group suddenly vanished.
