Hitchhiking Across Time [Open to Time Travelers]

[Ash Carpenter]

Ash stroked his chin before beginning, "Funny story really. On my first night stuck in the 13th century, i was captured by a group of knights who accused me of being an enemy spy. They took me back to their city where they threw me into a pit with a bloodthirsty pack of wolves, armed with only my wits - and my trusty boomstick. I made quick work of those beasts and when i managed to climb my way out of the pit - i was welcomed as a hero. I got in good with the king and his daughter - especially his daugher. And eventually we were hitched. Me being both a prince and a badass warrior meant of course that i was to lead their armies into battle alongside the king, who was pretty badass himself despite his age."

He took a pause before continuing, "One climatic battle after the next and the king just couldn't cut it. The poor bastard snapped and stabbed himself right in the heart while everyone else slept. I think it was a bunch of bullshit though and he was actually murdered. Before i could go out and find the asshole that did my dad-in-law in, i was crowned the new king. The life of a king was great...until that damn coup....."

Oliver listened intently to every word, and when he was finished, he leaned back in his chair and said "Wow, that's a pretty interesting story. If I'm honest, you shouldn't curse the coup. I don't the reign of the king and his chin would be that big in the history books."

[Ash Carpenter]

"Hey i had a harem of six beautiful wives! Hell yeah i'm gonna curse it!"

[Oliver Jonas]

"Always boils down to women." Oliver said. Just then, the Time Shadow slowed down. "Looks like we arrived."

[Ash Carpenter]

"Groovy."

[Oliver Jonas]

"Actually, disco's been dead a while." Oliver said, not getting the other meaning. "Yep. 2007, New York City. Close to home?"

[Ash Carpenter]

"I know that. I'm from the 90s, not the 70s," he rolled his eyes, "Time-wise i'm still not sure, but i'm actually from Michigan."

[Oliver Jonas]

"Ah well, at least around this time, there's such thing as cars." Oliver said. "I still don't know how people coped with wheels, though."

[Ash Carpenter]

"Thanks for the lift, you can drop me off-shit!" he looks down to see a child's corpse laying in the alleyway below them, "Like i haven't seen enough dead bodies in my lifetime already!"

[Oliver Jonas]

"This sort of things happened a lot around this time." Oliver noted. "Crime still exists, right?"

[Ash Carpenter]

"But this...this has the stink of Demons."

[Oliver Jonas]

"Ah. Not normal, then."

[Ash Carpenter]

Ash kicked at the Time Shadow's walls, "Where's the damn door on this thing?!"

[Oliver Jonas]

"Hey, hey, easy!" Oliver said, in defence of the wall. "This may be 33rd Century Tritanium, but it still dents!"

[Ash Carpenter]

"If you want me to stop kicking, let me out!"
