“Alright then,” Black Mage said, while standing back up and dusting off his mage robes. “First things first, we need to find out if that portal really took us to another dimension, and if so, then we need to figure out where we are.”
“Of course we came to another dimension, Black Mage!” Fighter shouted out, with his arms in the air. “It’s obvious.”
“Oh really,” Black Mage spoke, his words dripping with sarcasm. “And just how is it so obvious that a device that no one has ever heard of before, that you bought from a most-likely shifty old man, for all of the money we had has transported us out of the dimension in which we have lived our entire lives, and flung us into a world that we cannot even begin to comprehend because nothing like this has ever been attempted before?”
“Duh, Black Mage; we’re in a forest now.”
Fighter simply stared back at him after he had finished speaking. Black Mage simply stared back at Fighter as well, with unbridled fury in his eyes, though with a calm and reserved look on his face. “My hatred for you is surpassed only by your stupidity.” Black Mage spoke in a surprisingly calm tone for what he just said.
“What do you mean by that?” Fighter asked, completely oblivious to the insult and obvious declaration of how much he hates him.
Black Mage furrowed his eyebrows and threw his arms up into the air. “We were just on the outskirts of a forest! For all we know, the portal we jumped through was just a hologram and we literally jumped through it.” He then gestured to the line of trees to screen their left. “That stupid mud town with their SOLDIER’s and pilgrimages and Shadowlords are probably just on the other side of that group of foliage.”
“No way, BM. We’re totally in another dimension now.” Fighter responded, completely ignoring everything Black Mage just said.
Black Mage squinted his eyes as much as he possibly could and was literally shaking with rage. “Enlighten me.” He spoke slowly, through his teeth.
Fighter threw his arms up into the air again. “Because we jumped through a portal and now we’re in a forest! Geez, do I have to draw you a diagram?”
*Snap* (That was Black Mage’s patience.)
“That’s it. It’s murdering time.” Black Mage then took out his knife and moved closer to Fighter. He brought up his knife and was about to bring it down on Fighter’s meaty body, (and no doubt fail to get through his armor, just like every other time he tried to kill him) when suddenly they heard some rustling in the nearby bushes.
They both turned to look at what it was, and they saw…
A pony. Dun, dun, dunnnn.
It was a unicorn stallion, with a dark blue coat and a short black mane. His horn was sharp at the tip, instead of rounded, and his cutie mark was a multi-coloured cherry blossom.
After a moment of silence, and an awkward look from all three of them, the unicorn finally spoke. “Hey there.”
