Gonna Get a Little Weird

Synopsis: It appears Penn, Boon and Sashi are going through a normal mission in another dimension until they come upon a hyperactive girl and her friend.

Chapter 1-Like Any Other Mission ?

Phyllis was always monosyllabic in her conversation but she sported a slight smile as she zapped the trio into a feudal realm. None of them had ever experienced such a dimension before, but Penn, Boon and Sashi were excited to see what the mission had in store for them.

Once they had entered the feudal realm, Penn was a ninja, Sashi was a ronin and Boon was a feudal lord. Of course, Boon didn't realize his power until Sashi ran the specs of the mission.

'Penn and I are misunderstood heroes of the people. Your treasury has recently been robbed by the evil tyrant Rippen-san and his inept accomplice, Larry-san. The people of the land look to you for their philanthropy when times are rough and well, you aren't doing so well yourself right now.', Sashi said, a little sadly. At least she was forthright in the entire situation.

'We've got to get the money back that was unrightfully stolen from us.', Boon said. He began to notice that there were hordes of people coming toward his imperial palace, demanding an explination of why they hadn't recieved their capital boost in some time.

'Great ! Now I have to give another speech.', Boon lamented, sighing. Penn placed his hand on his friend's shoulder.

'You killed it last time you bargained the world's case. I'll never forget that stunning interpretive dance you performed. Didn't know you could move like that, Bro !', Penn complimented.

'Great, great. Enough bromance, let's get on with it ! We've got booty to reclaim.', Sashi said.

'Heh, you said 'booty'.', Boon laughed, adjusting his stateman's black hat. With a macho stance, he began to appease the crowds, but much more so by his one-man burlesque than with any of the words coming from his mouth.

As usual, rippen had sent out an army to meet Penn and Sashi half-way to their destination. Larry was beaming.

'Why are you so happy ?', Rippen questioned, drolly. Larry was irritating him more than usual.

'I figured out the code to get you this cash. It proves that I'm not at all worthless.', Larry said, clapping his hands merrily.

'True, that you did. But we can't go celebrating just yet.', Rippen reminded him.

'Oh, I have a little surprise for Penn and Sashi...Just you wait.', Larry stated with a gleeful grin. It was incredible that someone so meek, mid, unassuming and just plain nice could ever consider being a villain, let alone Rippen's sidekick. Yet Larry had stuck to Rippen's side like a festering boil and had been just as painful to remove in vain.

Suddenly, there was what appeared to be a rip in the very fabric of space and time. A pair of scissors appeared from the other side of the portal, revealing a very hyperactive and colorfully dressed girl with devil horns, toting along a red-hoodied boy with her.

'Come on, I've gotta show you around. You won't believe how authentic this place is to the original Feudal Japan. I've been boning up on my history.', Star boasted. They didn't have classes or tests based on how much knowledge one had on Munie, but at least now she would be prepared for the next History quz when it came up.

One by one, she zapped the ninja baddies with tiny unicorns. They easily subdued and knocked the bad guys into submission. The boy had excellent combat skills and was knocking out villains left and right. Sashi went on ahead to deal with Rippen and Larry while the blonde accidentally bumped into Penn.

'Who are you ?', Penn asked, curiously.

'I'm Star Butterfly. I'm from another dimension !', Star explained, waving her magic wand over he head. It burst forth with a rainbow, cute animals and twittering birds until it caught on fire.

'She still doesn't know how to use that crazy magic wand though. Hey, I'm Marco. What's your name ?', Marco said, cooly. Marco had an indespensible ability to make friends no matter what dimension he was exploring.

'I'm Penn. That rapid spitfire that ran ahead of me was Sashi. our other friend, Boon, is handling the rabble outside the palace.

"I gotta get you introduced to Sashi, she's always talking about multiverses, and Boon, oh man, you should here him ababble about aliens. Won't he be surprised ?', Penn said as they continued to press forward to battle Rippen with his new acquaintences.
