//------------------------------// // ACT ONE chapter one: cats outta the box // Story: Bamboozle boogaloo 2: Tokyo drift // by Theboxcatgamr //------------------------------// Noah awoken from his psychedelic trip through sapce and time in a large gray box. With the sounds of someone talking about something Noah decided looking around was a wise choice and noticed that his body was as dark as a shadow and his clothes were glowing a bright blue. Speaking of which he was wearing a very torn near the bottom of the coat and he was clutching what looked like a black horn in his hand. Suddenly a sound jolted Noah from his observation as the lid was slowly moved to reveal... a furry blue hand? ”oh dear god no please don’t. Shit it’s probably a furry coming for my ass! I fucking knew furrys and bronys couldn’t co-exist in peace! NONONONO-“ The lid was completely torn off and Noah heard the owner of the hand say something about “recruiting him” Noah shot up out of the stone box and began twitching violently ”FUCK THAT I DID NOT COME THIS FAR ONLY TO BE DRAFTED INTO SOME BULLSH-“ Noah’s outrage was swiftly scilenced by the fact that it actually wasn’t some recruiting Sargent in a fur suit or pony costume and instead a strange blue monkey thing with a freakishly large hand on its tail. Behind him was a brown (or possibly orange) Pegasus that was tied up and covered in bruises. Noah got a violent flashback to that one time his brother attempted to recreate the spinning throw you use in Mario 64 on a cat that had always attacked Noah when he was alone. He wasn’t. Putting the horn in his pocket Noah grabbed the tail of the massive monkey and yanking it towards him plowed his fist into the back of its head before spinning around as fast as he could. ”SO LONG GAY BOWSER!” he released the monkey he had flown into the stone slab the had once held Noah and Noah grabbed the Pegasus before sprinting away. ”STOP HIM!” Several gaurds were giveing chase and gaining ground on Noah as he ran as fast as his two legs could carry him through several chambers and the Pegasus reached out with its hoof and somehow grabbed a golden ring off of a stack of them as they entered a new chamber. Noah reached a dead end with an open skylight as the gaurds slowly closed in with a sly look on their face...muzzle things. Noah frantically tore into the ropes on the Pegasus and once he got both the rope and the gag off he threw the Pegasus into the air. It started flying away. ”you’re going to pay for that” They charged and Noah noticed the Pegasus came back for him! With hope in his eyes,a spring in his step and crazed expression to boot Noah vaulted off of a gaurd and when he hit the wall he kicked off it hard resulting in a jump towards the hoof of his saviour. He grabbed on to the golden ring and as the Pegasus grunts he is slowly lifted from the hole. They were not gonna make it. Noah was just too heavy. Dodging a thrown spear Noah decided to focus on the Pegasus. To his surprise the darkness of his body slowly spread to the strained pegasus and her wings began gaining more lift. It’s mane began glowing a bright blue as the shadowy colour covered its entire body. With one swift flap of its wings they roketed out of the hole and the resulting shockwave blasted the cultists back into the pit as they ascended. Out of the pit the Pegasus passed out mid air as the shadowy colour disappeared and they fell towards the cold hard ground. Noah threw it into a tree as he accidentally threw down a shadow portal and fell into it clutching the golden ring as its hat slowly drifted and fell into the hole. Noah awoke on a roof in a strange village. He sat up and noticing the Pegasus’s hat laying beside him decided to tie the hat and ring to his coat (which was conveniently covered in holes to tie them to!) Noah looked around and spotted something reading a newspaper in the distance that probably shouldn’t have existed. A griffin. Looking closely at the creature Noah made an absolutely revolutionary discovery upon his further observation. ”oh my god it’s so fucking fluffy I wanna die” After a few minutes of staring observing what was the absolute unit of fluff, Noah eventualy began looking around his surroundings and discovered that the building he was on was actually a rather run down orphanage. Noah decided on taking an absolutely necessary detour through the orphanage. Noah on his climb down noticed that his clothes were no longer glowing blue and his shadowy body seemed a bit fainter. Thinking something of it Noah continued his very slow decent down the building. Because despite the fact that he was now mister shadow-monster-man he still had about the same strength he had when he was back at home. Thank god for endurance training though! Noah barely made it down the building and eventually he slowly began making his way to the entrance of the building as to not raise suspicion over his existence. His heart nearly stopped when he noticed he was standing right in front of a pair of two buff male armoured griffins. The walked up to him without a word and to Noah’s surprise rounded the corner and entered the alleyway ignoring Noah. A gaurd popped his head out of the darkness of the allyway looking around before declaring the coast was clear...and promptly shoving his face into the other griffin’s and going to town. Noah just stood there more surprised at this than not being seen as a sly smile made its way to his mouth. He left the couple alone and made his way to the entrance of the orphanage “Judy’s house for little miracles. Noah began working up the courage to enter the building...and then he opened the door
