Let's Mess This Up Even MORE, Shall We? BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 13116

"Hello", says the girl with the funny pointed ears. Scott notices that she only has four fingers on each hand, and is only about half his height, yet much BIGGER than a Xanth elf. "My name is Jenny Elf, and I'm from the World of Two Moons, but I got lost somehow. This is my cat-friend, Sammy-- " here she points to the orange ball of fluff that's ferociously attacking a nearby blade of grass--"and this is my best buddy, Che Centaur."
"Che?!" muttered Scott. "OH, boy..."
Che looked up into Chex's eyes. He looked confused for a moment, then his eyes widened in recognition.
"Mother? Wow, you look great!"
"MOTHER?!!!!" yelled Chex, lifting her forehoofs in shock and dismay. "WhatEVER are you talking about, foal? I'm only a filly myself, I'm no-where NEAR old enough to have a child your age! Go away!!" She seemed terrified, but something in his eyes (and the fact that if you've ever seen the cover art for "Isle of View", they look A LOT like each other!) told her he was right.
"Okay, let me see if I can get this straight", said Scott. "Now we're not only messing up the plotline of ONE Xanth novel, but we've got people from the FUTURE novels showing up?! This is TOO weird."
"Sammy and Che and I were on a quest to--"
"Don't tell me, see the Good Magician Humfrey." interjected Scott.
"Why, yes", said Che in surprise. "How did you--"
"Because sooner or later, EVERYONE comes to Babylon 5--erm, excuse me, wrong universe, I mean, EVERYONE ends up going to the Good Magician. It's just a law of Xanth physics."
"Well, in that case, do you want to come along?"
"No!" said Chex, who was thorougly creeped out by the whole thing. Seeing her own SON when she was not even dating anyone yet had severely bothered her. "This is not right, people from different timelines travelling together! We could unravel the entire universe! And who knows--one of Humfrey's Answers could keep something in another one of our Answers from coming true! It's too dangerous to mess with time! Even the Mundanes know THAT!"
"On the other hand..." said Scott thoughtfully, "it could be rather interesting..."

  1. Scott and Chex decide to travel WITH Che, Jenny, and Sammy.
  2. They decide against it and go on by themselves.
