The Adventures of Greg and Vlad: The dimensional jump

Gregoth soon was feeling weightless. He opened his eyes to find himself falling. He looked toward an unconscious Vladimir falling on his left, and an unconscious unicorn falling on his right. He still had a good grip on his quarterstaff as he fell. As they fell, the ground became in sight as the clouds faded away. Quickly, Gregoth focused for a moment, while a blue sphere began to appear around the group.

“Teleportation!” Gregoth yelled as the end of his staff emitted a bright light, engulfing the entire group.

=======================================

Gregoth slowly began to open his eyes and took it his surroundings. He saw that everyone was on the ground safe, and noticed a forest and a cottage just outside it. He peered around a bit more and noticed a small village in the distance. Gregoth stood up now peering over the his friend and the animal.

“Vladimir, wake up! This is no time for a nap!” Gregoth yelled picking his unconscious friend up by the collar of his shirt. Almost instantly, the barbarian woke up jumping to his feet breathing hard. “HEY! Calm down! I just saved us from dieing.” Gregoth said to his friend trying to calm him down.

“Where are we?” Vladimir replied a bit calmed down.

“Does it look like I know? This ‘thing’ teleported us here… well not here but up there.” Gregoth said pointing up at the sky above. “We would have died if I didn’t use my own teleportation spell to bring us to the ground safely.”

“Thanks again Greg, that’s like the fourth time you saved my life.” Vladimir said. Gregoth did not react to the complement. He simply gazed upon the sleeping unicorn with a confused, and amazed look on his face. “You ok Gregoth?” asked the also confused barbarian.

“Yes, just puzzled on how a small creature could use a spell that powerful.” The wizard said bend own toward the unicorn. “Its remarkable how much manna it has.” Gregoth’s staff began to glow violet when he drew it close to unicorn’s horn.

The unicorn felt the magic from the wizard’s staff collide with her own and woke up immediately in shock. It stood up on all fours again. ‘Dejavu’ Gregoth thought to himself.

“Like I said before little horse, we are not here to hurt you.” Gregoth again said in a calm voice. “Now, a new question; where are we?”

The unicorn began to relax looking like it trusted the wizard’s words. “You are in Equestria. I am sorry for taking you with me, but your friend there messed up my concentration!” The unicorn yelled in a feminine voice pointing at Vladimir. Vlad just sighed heavily.

“Well if you had cooperated, we wouldn’t be in this mess!” The angry barbarian yelled back.

“Cooperated?! You guys scared me half to death!” The unicorn exclaimed, “All I wanted was to get back here and fast, but you had to throw that…. Thing at me!” She pointed down at the battleaxe that sat on the grass. The axe had a violet glow to it, like it had been enchanted by the unicorn’s magic.

“Well… uh-” Vladimir began, but was cut off by Gregoth.

“Enough arguing!” Yelled the irritated wizard. “My name is Gregoth Linsmith, and this blockhead over here is my best friend, Vladimir Snowshield. What may be yours?”

“I am Twilight Sparkle, royal apprentice of Princess Celestia herself.” She replied. “So… what are you? I have never seen your kind before.”

“Well, I am an Elf. We are wise and may live a long time, mostly gaining knowledge of the Arcane.” Replied the wizard, “But, there are Elves who do not chose to follow that path. Some may chose to become Warriors, Archers, etcetera. I am what you would call, a Wizard.” Said the Elf bowing down before the unicorn.

“I am a human, most of us become Warriors but I chose to be a Barbarian because it ran in my family.” Vladimir said looking down at the Elf. “And why are you bowing to a horse?”

“I am not a horse! I am a pony!” Yelled the unicorn before Gregoth could answer.

“Vlad, I am just being polite this ‘pony’. Showing that I care for peace not violence.” Gregoth said straight to the barbarian. “I believe this pony has remarkable skills, she could pull off a dimensional teleportation spell without being resulted to mesh.” He said now glaring at the unicorn. She blushed a bit behind her purple coat. As he began to stand up, a loud scream came from the cottage in the distance startling the Wizard.

“Fluttershy!” Yelled the purple pony darting toward the cottage. The barbarian picked up his glowing axe off the ground and placed it back in it’s holder, then began to run after the unicorn. The Wizard began to follow running close behind his friend.
