Chapter Two

At the other end of the park, there's an ancient carnival ride. The entrance to the ride is designed to look like the head of an enormous dragon, with the tracks for the cars going directly into its mouth. Above it's head in crumbling letters reads the sign Dun eon & Dra ons. The doors in the fake monsters mouth begin to glow a strange green colour, then burst outward in an eruption of green light. From the light tumble six young people, all dressed as medieval fantasy adventurers. At the top of the heap is a young man with short black hair named Eric, dressed as a knight and carrying a golden shield. Lying directly on the bottom of the heap is a blonde haired young man named Hank, who's dressed as a woodsman and carrying a golden bow. Sandwiched between Hank and Eric is a pretty redhead named Sheila, who's dressed all in various shades of purple, including her cloak. Off the the side are the two youngest members of the party. Presto, a red haired boy of about 14 years wearing the green robes and conical hat of a mythical wizard. And Bobby, a blonde haired boy wearing the furs and horned helm of a barbarian and carrying a wooden club. He's also clutching a baby unicorn protectively in his arms. The only one who didn't wind up in the dog pile was Diana, a mocha skinned acrobat wearing a fur bikini and carrying a green wooden staff. She walks over to Bobby and Presto and helps them to their feet. Eric is the first of the others to recover from their bumpy ride.

"Hey!" he says, "We did it! We're home!"

"Great," groans Hank, "Now will you please get off me? I can't breath."

"Oh, right. Sorry about that Hank."

Eric gets up off his friends and helps Hank and Sheila to their feet. Meanwhile Diana, Presto, and Bobby are looking around with very confused expressions on their faces.

"Ummm, Hank?" says Presto, "Are you sure we went through the correct portal to our world?"

"It was right where the Dungeon Master said it was going to be," says Eric, "Why wouldn't it be the right portal?"

"Well I don't remember the moon looking like that!" says Presto.

They all look up to the shocking image of the moon split cleanly in two, like a giant egg.

"What happened?" asks Bobby. The baby unicorn makes an affirmative bleating sound.

"Bobby!" says Sheila, "You were supposed to leave Uni back in The Realm! She won't be able to survive in our world!"

"But Sis," Bobby replies to his older sibling, "Venger was right there! I couldn't just leave her there! He would've hurt her!"

"And I still might, barbarian," says a deep voice dripping in cruelty.

The kids all turn to see the demonic figure of Venger exiting the Dungeons & Dragons ride, sitting atop his nightmare mount with the ever present Shadow Demon hovering by his side. "Now give me your magical weapons and I will leave your world in peace! Refuse, and you shall suffer the consequences!"

"Scatter!" shouts Hank, "Remember our weapons don't work in our world!"

The kids all run in several different directions. Presto runs around to the back of the Dungeons & Dragons ride. Bobby, Sheila, and Uni all make a mad dash for the carousel. Hank and Diana run towards the target range, and Eric heads straight for the food court. Howling in rage, Venger and his mount take to the sky. From above, he starts unleashing his magical assault. Eric almost makes it to a burger shack before one of Vengers magical bolts blasts it to kindling. Eric turns to see Venger above him, a glowing ball of energy in the palm of his hand. Venger hurls his magical sphere at Eric. With nowhere to hide Eric instinctively ducks behind his enchanted Griffon Shield. Incredibly the magical blast is deflected off the shield and goes right back at Venger, nearly knocking him from his nightmare.

"Hey everybody!" Calls Eric, "My shield still has its magic!"

With a hopeful expression, Hank draws back on his Energy Bow. To his delight, a magical arrow appears and he aims and fires it at Venger. "Eric's right," he says, "Hit Venger with everything you've got!"

Sheila puts up the hood of her Invisibility Cloak, disappearing from view. Soon rocks are flying at Venger's head, thrown by an unseen assailant. Bobby uses his Thunder Club to break off pieces of the carousel and send them flying at Venger. Venger fires back with bolt after bolt of magic, only to have Bobby, Diana, and Eric send them back with their club, javelin staff, and shield.

Seeing that their weapons are working on Earth now, Presto decides to lend a hand. He takes off his Hat Of Many Spells, wiggles his fingers over it, and says "Magic hat which I hold, give me a spell to leave Venger cold!"
Then he reaches into the hat, and pulls out a vanilla ice cream cone. Presto looks down at his botched spell. "Aw nuts," he says.

Then he looks up just in time to see Venger throw his own spell at him. Presto screams and holds up his hat in front of him like a shield. Venger's attack gets caught in the hat, but hits with enough force to throw Presto several feet to be slammed against the side of the Dungeons & Dragons ride. Presto slumps to the ground unconscious.
