end of the chapter for more notes

POV Sealio

Sealio stood atop a rock peak and overlooked his kingdom. The waves of the shining sea crashed against the shore. Sealio was accompanied by his harem of cute lady elephant seals who were all lazing around the shore with him.

Earlier that day Sealio absolutely demolished another male elephant seal and left him a bloody pulp. Sealio knew himself to be unbeatable. He had demolished opponents time and time before, but in the back of his mind crept uncertainty. A fear mellowed in him that he would one day be usurped, just like the one elephant seal who stood in his place before. He never spoke on those ingrained fears to the other seals, since they would only see this earnestness as weakness. The walls he built up around himself were sometimes cold but kept in at the top for so long. Why change now?

He jumped from his stoop falling face-first into the cooling water. Before the sunset, he patrolled across the beach's shorefront. Under rocks, in between plants, and along scurrying plants he swam but found no signs of intruders. He swam around the corner and was blinded by piercing light, causing him to raise his flipper to try to block it. Never in his months as this shorefront's beachmaster had he seen anything like this before. Sealio started swimming away quickly. He needed to protect the harem, warn everyone, and fulfill his duty as the beach master.

Sealio opened up his eyes and to his horror, he was swimming in place but inched back into the light. He pushed harder and harder but it only proved to tire himself out more

quickly. How long would this light vortex continue pulling? He thought that perhaps if he endured long enough it would stop. Seconds felt like minutes, and Sealio lost track of how long he had been resisting.

“Please no” he let out and fell back into the light.

The only thing we’re left behind was the last bubble that rose to the surface and quickly popped out of existence. Everything was so bright around Sealio, and he felt like he was no longer in the water.

...

POV Hendrix

Hendrix opened out his beach chair on the sandy beach of the strong man contest. He had come a long way for this event because last year this event had been hijacked by an elephant seal and was such a spectacle to see. That same Elephant seal was also competing this year but had spread the word to other elephant seals, so this year it was expected there to be an equal number of human and elephant seal participants. Sealio who was the origin of the elephant seal strong man movement had planned to retire this year as Elephant seals only are sexually mature for two years before passing away, but it was expected that the tradition would go on for generations.

Hendrix kicked back his legs and popped out some zoringang branded soda. Looking around his hair stood up and he got goosebumps. He pushed himself back into his chair trying to cover himself up.

“Why does everyone look super weird here?” He mumbled to himself.

People walked by with brown and pink skin colors, no pointy teeth, rounded ears, which was normal for most people but not for him. Hendrix has saturated pink skin and bright blue hair, so anyone who saw him would notice something was up.

He slowly got up from his beach chair and scurried away dragging sand with each step. He hid around the other side of some bushes and furiously fidgeted with his watch.

“Mayve, please pick up” he whispered to himself, but the watch responded with no signal.

Hendrix had somehow accidentally stepped into another world and had no idea how that happened. Someone grabbed at his shoulder, and he jumped up. Had someone noticed his outlandish appearance, was this the start of the government asking him tons of questions and doing experiments. He had a pretty rocky relationship with the

government back in his old world already. He creaked his head to the side and looked behind him.

“H-hello” Hendrix mumbled.

The girl that had gotten his attention was wearing a stylish green jacket and had fiery red hair. She had a bag around her shoulder that seemed to be heavy and full of strange contraptions. She kinda looked like she was going to challenge him to a Pokémon battle, and not like she was ready for a fun day at the beach.

“ I have a few questions I’d like to ask. Seems like you might be a little lost.” She said affirmatively.

Hendrix gulped. ...
POV Sealio

Sealio's eyes fluttered open as he lay in the bushes close to a parking lot full of cars. All the visitors had been going towards it. He shot up in horror and fear as so many emotions ran through his brain. He had recognized the flora of the area and he knew this had to be the same beach he patrolled over. He thrust himself up and shimmied closer to the beachfront.

“Why are there so many people on my beach!” He roared.

He was hit with the force of a ton of bricks and remembered the feeling of this sensation. It could only be another Elephant seal challenging him for his haram. He tensed himself.

“ Hey, what the hell are you doing? We are trying to have a peaceful event here. Wait? Sealio? Is that you?” The seal stammered.

“Get off of my way, I won’t let you lay a hand on my girls!” He said with gritted teeth.

“ Don’t you remember me? It’s Elphanso. Your whole colony is waiting at the strong man competition to see you perform. We all agreed to have a truce for the competition today.”

Sealio started to look more around to see that they were not the only two elephant seals about to breach his beach. He could see about three more seals sliding about, and there was no telling how many might have been on the beach already. Sealio was so confused, but the thing that screamed in his mind over and over again was to protect his

Harem, but he needed to find them. He bolted onto the beach at a steady pace, but not as aggressive enough for another person to get in his way.

Elphanso stood behind looking confused.

“I know he is getting up there in age, but it’s so sad seeing the dementia set in. I hope he comes back to himself once he’s on the field.” Elphanso digressed.

While Sealio ran towards the beach he saw the crowds of people and streamers flying through the air. He suspected this would be the toughest fight of his life. Suddenly he became blinded and he felt gooey liquid falling down on his face. It flowed into his mouth and he began spitting it out, but he quickly lost consciousness. The crowd looked at him in shock, but a person wearing a worker's uniform came over and called them.

“ I will take him to the infirmary. We are fully prepared for any medical emergencies.” The worker said.

The crowd continued to go towards the completion in relief. The worker looked over Sealio's unconscious self with a subtle smirk.

...

POV Hendrix

Hendrix was kicking back feet all the way up in the air, with a back-breaking posture.

“Eh, who wouldn’t want to visit a strongman competition with elephant seals. People came from all over the world. I guess I accidentally came from another universe.”

The girl was shocked. “ Wait, You actually meant to come here? How did you even have any control at all?"

“ Yeah, I thought I would be here, but just with more people that looked like me. I am quite the traveler.” Hendrix explained. “ Uhhh so what are the questions for?”

She looked up from the notes she had been writing down. “ You aren’t the only one off course. I was supposed to be capturing ghosts and making moolah. Then blamo, I’m on a beach filled with bodybuilders and manatees.” She raised her arms up in the air for emphasis.

“ You can call me Ash. Seems like there’s a mystery afoot and it would be smart to work together.” She reached out her hand.

Hendrix reached his hand out with vigor and shook wildly. “I’m Hendrix. Uhh and there’s a lot I actually need to admit.”

Hendrix stood up straight and pulled out a strange-looking device that looked like a fancy muffler. It had multiple buttons and was flashing widely with colors. “I’m a time traveler! Whenever I time travel it always takes me to the same spot just at a different time. It has never taken me to different worlds.”

Ash asked back in shock. “Jinkies time travel is weird? I’m really hopin this is just a dream. Maybe a ghost is knockin around my head and making me see things.”

“ Are you an actual ghost hunter? I knew ghost had to be real!” Hendrix exclaimed.

“Yeah, I’m kinda a big shot when it comes to ghost hunting. I was just on my way to go to a house that had a ghost girl in it, but then there was this blinding light that sucked me up.” Ash picked up one of the items from her bag tossing it up and down. She caught it and pointed towards Hendrix. “Dyah think you could have gone so far in the future that a whole new species was takin over the earth?”

Hendrix rested his head on his hand. “ No way! The farther you go in time the more energy is consumed by the time-traveling device. It can’t jump farther than 50 years before needing a recharge.” He scratched his head. “Though I would have assumed jumping into other dimensions would take up even more energy.”

Ash looked over to hear a sound. It bumped up and down, up and down. Out of the bushes came a big jumping elephant seal that towered over both of them. They were both thrown to the sides into the plants. The Elephant seal looked down to the side and saw he had knocked over Ash. She had propped herself up with one of her hands and rubbed her head.

“Aurf Awrf.” The seal said towards her with an apologetic look.

The Elephant seal brought down his head and pushed Ash off the ground. Hendrix was still laying on the floor, as the elephant seal didn’t notice him. He thought that it was probably for the best, as even an elephant seal might be shocked by his otherworldly appearance. The seal pushes Ash forward.

“Yah, tryin to bring me somewhere. Okay, okay, I’ll go. Stop bein so pushy!”

Ash looked down at her hand. Her hand landed in pink icky slime. She sniffed at her hand. “What the hell is this? Ah whateva.”

Hendrix stood up from the leafy plant. He needed to catch up with her, but try his best to remain undetected. He looked down at his time travel device. He could just continue jumping around through time and try to find his way back home. This was pretty dangerous though because if he ran out of battery there’s no telling where he’d end up. He remembers back to times when he was stuck in a period for months because there was no easy way to recharge the machine. If Ash also was from a different world there was no telling how many other people could be here.

He followed the two, reconciling that getting lost in time and space would be his last-ditch effort instead of the first.

...
POV Sealio 2

Sealio pushed Ash forward. He can’t believe he had almost trampled a girl on such a special day. Over the last year after participating in the strong man competition to show his dominance he had chilled out and became a pretty chill seal. He would hang out with the other competitors on the weekends, and brought the elephant seal community together to celebrate their strength. Well he was fighting off male elephant seals 90% percent of the year, but there were now rules and time off from when they were fighting. He had grown to respect his community and they gave him respect back.

Sealio was dropping Ash off at the infirmary to make sure she didn’t break anything when he ran into her. They entered the little tent and Ash spread out on the bed and fell softly into slumber.

“Blah blah ba” Ash murmured before closing her eyes.

Sealio couldn’t understand the words people were saying, but he understood their emotions. He could tell that Ash was very tired. He left outside the tent and left her for the nurse to check on. The wave of energy that swept through his seal body. He was surrounded by so many friends, and because he knew this competition was going to be his last he was going to make it a good one.

...
POV Hendrix

Hendrix had swiped someone’s towel and dropped it over his head. He was pretty sure his disguise might’ve just gotten more eyes on him, but he was so different looking it probably wouldn’t make a difference. He had been looking around for an hour and still wasn’t able to find Ash again. He laid down on the sand and looked over at the strong

man and seals pulling cars and lifting weights. If he was just going to walk around like a chicken without his head, he might as well stick to one spot and watch the show he came for.

He rested his head in his arms and giggled and all the big seals being manly, and lifting more weights than he could ever possibly lift.

“Hehe, yes. Are you enjoying the show?” Hendrix jumped and looked to the side.

There has a person in one of the worker uniforms. Hendrix hoped the worker didn’t notice how weird he looked, but the worker also seemed a little strange. Their skin looked quite sickly, and they rubbed their hands disturbingly.

“Yeah, I love this stuff.” Hendrix chuckled.

“ Well get excited. We have much more exciting stuff in the lineup. He he he he he he he-“

Hendrix wasn’t sure when they stopped laughing, since they decided to slide away. He was glad that the guy wasn’t giving him a hard time, but he made Hendrix feel very uncomfortable. So much for staying in one place until Ash found him. Hendrix felt a tap on his shoulder. It was Ash.

“ I have a few questions I’d like to ask. Seems like you might be a little lost.” Said Ash.

“ I’ve been lost since I’ve been trying to find you this whole time. I guess I did spend a bit of time goofing off though." Hendrix explained.

“What ya talking about? I don’t know who ya are. Or what ya are for that matter."

“Ash? Are you messing with me? I hope that elephant seal didn’t hit you that hard.” He said jokingly. “Why don’t we find somewhere we can sit down?”

They went over near the shore that was void of people. Hendrix just plopped on the sand with his legs out. “You want to take a seat?” He pats his hand against the ground.

Ash took her seat with crossed legs. “So did you show up here out of nowhere, too?”

Hendrix waved his hand in the air. “ Yup, I’m a time traveler, I’m from a different world. We were talking together like an hour ago, and I'm even surprised that I haven’t been freaking out for the past hour.”

“This is weird. Like super weird. You did know my name... but you just seem so suspicious” She accused.

“I’ve been walking around doing nothing for the past hour. I have no idea what I’m doing and I just want to leave as much as you want to.” He laid back on the ground. “I don’t even think we’re the only ones who are stuck here”

“Creepers, there have been a few weird lookin characters around this venue, but you're the only time traveler I’ve seen. That puts ya at the very tippy-top of my list of people that probably caused this whole situation.” She pulled herself off the ground and wiped the sand off of her jacket. “So do you think you caused this?

Hendrix looked down. “I don’t know. This has never happened before, but I’m also not the most experienced with time travel. So.... It might be my fault.”

Ash stretched out a hand. “Ah, we won’t be able to solve this mystery by just poutin about. Let’s go look around for other dimensional jumpers.”

Hendrix got pulled up and wiped the sand off himself too. “ Fine with me I just hope your weird amnesia has nothing to do with us being in a different dimension. Hehe.”

As they walked back to the strong man competition Hendrix recalled a bunch of memories to see if he was still able to. He remembered his family and going on adventures with mayve. He was such a wandering soul that the only thing that tied him together were his memories, so he had no idea what he would do if he lost them here.

...
POV Sealio

Sealio jutted upward from his sleep, gasping heavily. The nurse that was checking his temperature a second ago tumbled backward and fell to the floor.

“Blah blah blah blah blah,” She said, picking herself back up.

She slowly moved forward to Sealio. Moving her arms down in a calming motion. Sealio began tensing up and making himself taller. He didn’t know where he had just woken up, but the walls felt so close to him. He was trapped and the only way he thought he could get out is going through the noisy nurse. He bared his teeth at her menacingly.

“It’s okay, human. I will take care of this one.” Said a familiar feminine voice.

Sealio swung his head dramatically. His long nose swung through the air and almost swiping off the young human nurse's head. He looked at the large nurse and time felt like it began to slow down. Her long eyelashes fluttered closed and open dramatically

emphasizing her femininity. He recognized her to be Sealena, one of the many girl manatees in his harem.

“Sealena! How long has it been since I was knocked out? So many intruders have invaded our beach in such a short time.”

“Shush, shush, shush, you're not in danger. We want you to get back to the competition.” She patted his big meaty head with a hot towel muffling Sealios pleas.

Sealio grabbed the towel from her and threw it across the room over a colorful cast of other characters knocked out in the hospital tent.

“We are in danger, Sealena! It’s my job to protect the herd and you have been the only LADY HAREM SEAL I have seen all day. Where are all the others?” He screamed.

Sealena pushed her fins against him. “ The sooner you heal up the sooner you can see everyone else.”

Sealio slapped her fin. Sealena gasped in shock. Sealio stormed out through the tent's doors bringing some of them with him. The ground shook under his heavyweight as he lumbered towards the crowd of people. The sand flew through the air covering every person he rushed past. Sealio put on his bravest face, but deep down in his rough exterior he was terrified. Terrified of losing his beach, terrified to be killed, and terrified he would fail to protect the seals he loved most. He reached the competition floor sliding to a halt. The sand filled the air obscuring his vision.

“ RAH RAH RAH RAH” the crowds cheered around him making Sealio tenser.

The dust settled and before him stood another seal of similar stature and color. On closer examination, it was the exact color and size as him, except for the way he held himself. The seal held his nose up in impeccable confidence, but with the casualness of being comfortable with the horrible events around him.

“ Who are you?” Sealio huffed. “I am you...” Sealio 2 replied.

Sealio launched at him. He officially decided to break the peace at the fight-free zone event. He ran full force, head extended out to make his body into a ram. Sealio 2 swiftly moved to the side causing Sealio to overshoot his attack and stumble over. Sealio brought himself back up and turned around but in an instance, Sealio 2 appeared over him like he was an anime character. He pummeled Sealios's head down into the sand, causing him to struggle to get up again.

Sealio 2 backed up. “ You are disturbing the peace of this wonderful event. If you don’t stop attacking I will have to pacify you.”

Sealio trudge over. “ We are the same Elephant seal. We are equally matched. How do you expect to beat me.”

Sealio swung up his nose into the air and swung with a furious might. He came down onto the other seal causing dust to obscure their vision again.

Sealio 2 stepped forward again. “ I remember when I was you. Afraid and full of rage, before my life changed. I may be closer to my end, but I know I am stronger than you.”

“ RAHHHHHHH” Sealio rushed, colliding his head right up against his other self's cranium.

...
POV Hendrix

Hendrix had walked back with Ash. He was now looking all around to see if any other characters may have come from a different world, and they were really easy to spot. There were furries, animals, people with wings, and intimate objects tossed all over. They were characters of different sizes, some that were so small he could accidentally step on them.

Hendrix felt like he was going insane.

He stopped over at the main stage where the strong man competition was taking place, where two elephant seals were fighting intensely. The two seals were incredibly noisy and seemed like they were talking to each other in between blows. Hendrix noticed that these two seals were the same famous seal that started the trend of elephant seals participating in the strong man competition.

“Auwf, auwwf RUW AWwWf” Sealio 2 said holding the other seal down. “AurfFURw Fuwf aurf” Sealio roared squeezing out of his grip.
“RUWF ruwf ruf AWEWf awfff”
“ rufff waauf waufff huarfff

“RUAWF RUAWF rauuuuuwff ruf ruf eeruff” “Ruwfff auuwff auwf.”

Somewhere along the time watching the two he started mixing up which seal was which. He thought one of them was overpowering the other completely? He thought about all the cool stuff that they were probably saying to each other. He was enjoying himself despite feeling he had gone insane, but whatever they were doing probably blew him out of the water. Sadly he could not speak Elephant Seal, so there was no possible way for him or any English-speaking person to understand what they were saying.

Hendrix cracked open the can of Zorigang soda he brought with him. This might be one of the last ones he’ll have for the rest of his life. The soda bottle felt strange in his hand though. He had many of these sodas before, but it almost felt heavier and the soda didn’t slosh around the same way. He poured the bottle towards the ground and slowly a thick gooey liquid fell to the sand.

“ Ahh!” Hendrix jumped up, dropping the soda on the ground.

Well, so much for that being his last Zorigang soda. He wanted to sigh a breath of exhaustion but knew that he had to keep his head up. Why the hell was his soda bottle filled with goo? Hendrix felt another tap on his shoulder. The person trying to catch his attention came in front of him.

“ZOINKS, why is your face pink, man? That must be a killer sunburn.” A new Ash with no memories commented.

“ Ahh, yeah it’s just a sunburn. I actually have to go somewhere right now.” Hendrix said while skedaddling away from her.

Ash started running causing Hendrix to run at a full speed trying to lose her in the crowd. Hendrix was fairly tall and had experience running from people, so he quickly escaped her. Ash tried her best to catch up but was quickly swept into the crowd. Hendrix turned another corner and was now at the other side of the stadium. Hendrix felt like a jerk running away from her, but he really didn’t want to try to explain himself to another Ash. He was sure that this Ash would be convinced he was the cause behind the dimensional hopping.

Looking at the two seals that were first fighting they now seemed to be very calmed down. The two huge elephant seals were now hugging. On deeper examination, one looked like he was crying, even though elephant seals can’t cry.

“Huh, wonder what happened,” Hendrix remarked.

Someone passed Hendrix knocking him in the shoulder. It was the same strange worker who looked so suspicious. Now knowing that there were many-dimensional jumpers at

the strong man competition convinced Hendrix they must also be one. The person was still rubbing their hands back and forth. Hendrix decided to follow them.

The strange greenish person walked up to a small building at the end of the stadium. He gripped the doorknob and wobbled it strangely. The same goo that was in Hendrix’s bottle leaked from his hands. There were so many dimensional hoppers here, could some of them be evil? Hendrix sneaked up along the stairs trying to be as quiet as possible.

“Are you ready for the main event? You're going to have so much fun!” The strange figure looked at Hendrix and said.

Hendrix jolted up and ran inside the building. There were workers inside the small hut that had passed out off the floor, goo all over their faces. Hendrix closed his eyes, but he was too late. He slammed into the person straight onto the floor with a bang.

The speakers picked up and started playing music. “ Pudding Cups I can’t get enough of. I love pudding cups. Oh, Yah~”

Visitors all around the event had put their hands up to the ear as the dribble Drabble song ear wormed into their head. People started shutting and shaking, but the music kept playing.

“Pudding cups I can’t get enough, I love pudding cups.” The strange man whispered to the tune.

Hendrix lay on top of him but shuffled himself backward trying to escape from the pudding cup guy's reach.

“ Hahahahahah, No matter what dimension I find myself in My song will fill the ears of all. PUDDING CUPS ARE UNSTOPPABLE, NO ONE CAN STOP ME.” The pudding cups guy starters floating in the air with pudding gushing out of his feet.

Hendrix was now balled up in the corners with his hands pressed up against his ears. He had to stop the music, but he felt immobilized. The strong waft of the sugary pudding was consuming him and his vision became blurred. Despite being so close to the switch to turn off the music he succumbed to the pudding and passed out.

...
POV Sealio

Sealio had been hugging his other self after their heated fight. The words that they both exchanged felt like they had changed something in him. The two of them separated and Sealio wiped a trace amount of tears from his eyes. Sealio 2 was frantically throwing his face from side to side with terror in his eyes. Sealio looked around and all the humans were hunched over on the ground moaning in pain. They tried their hardest to cover their ears and some even began to scratch at them.

There was a hypnotic tune that played over the speakers, but the words only seemed like a mumble to all the elephant seals at the competition.

“Bleh bleh bleh, bleh bleh ble ble bbbee, BLE BAL” echoed through the whole beach.

Despite how horribly all the humans reacted the elephant seals weren’t affected at all. All over the beach elephant seals were trying to help their human friends, but could only watch them suffer.

Sealio 2 stood up on a pedestal and roared through the crowd. “ My Elephant Seal brothers and sisters, we must work together and destroy all the speakers. Do not worry about the property damage, you have my permission to destroy them all!”

He ran down to Sealio. “ Please help us. You may not have been able to beat me, your strength is still stupendous.”

Sealio puffed up his chest. “ I will protect every seal and human on this beach, and find a way back to my own.”

Both of them crawled through the sand. Sealio jumped high in the sky, the sun shining against his wrinkly skin. He hit the speaker hard causing the plastic to immediately snap under his gargantuan weight. The singing turned into a staticky wine than into nothingness. The rampaging seals caused dust to consume the stadium, it is all we preside in causing other creatures harm. Through the sandy air, Sealio could see Sealio 2 pushing against a metal beam. Sealio came over to assist him and with both their combined strength the steel pillar fell to the beach. Wires that had been connected between other beams had a brief moment of tension and shaped causing sparks to fly through the air. The surrounding area seemed to be in chaos, but the music had silenced.

Sealio picked himself off of the beach and shuffled his hotdog-like body to the side of a young boy who had been agonizing in pain a few seconds ago. With his big meaty shoulder, and despite him having regained most of his composure his eyes still stared out blankly. After a few brief seconds, the boy began to mumble a tune.

“Bleh bla bleh, bl bleeeeh ble bla bli, BLA BLE” the boy sang.

Sealio jumped back in horror. Despite not understanding the word, the tune was the same that all the humans had been agonizing too. Waves of other people mumbling the song whispered out and became louder and louder. All of them sang it silently and emotionally like they were zombies.

Sealio shuffled over to Sealio 2 “What do we do now?” “ I do-don’t know,” He stuttered.

Sealio tensed up. His future self had so much confidence and strength, but his voice seemed frightened. Sealio had gotten himself stuck in a cosmic nightmare, and it seemed like there was no escape.

Sealio stood up “ Put yourself together. Even if we can’t save the people who already heard the song we must contain it.”

Sealio 2 stood up. “ In my elderly age, I sometimes forget the bigger picture. Thank you Sealio.” He put his flipper on Sealio’s shoulder. (assuming elephant seals have shoulders) “ We must quarantine the people who heard the song.”

Sealio 2 ran up to the podium again and screamed with his enormous lungs. “ Make sure no one leaves this beach. We don’t know the origin or the damage that can be caused by this song, but we must prevent it from spreading.”

The elephant seals started to shuffle around the edges of the beach and surveyed to make sure no one outside the beach heard the song.

A blast of pudding flung itself on top of some of the elephant seals and at the top stood atop a strange yellow fellow. He was flying on top of the pudding and making a mess everywhere. Sealio shoved Sealio 2 out of the way of the sticky pudding.

“Don’t touch the fluids that caused me to become unconscious earlier today,” Sealio exclaimed.

“Thank you for the warning.” He replied.
The two elephant seals swung their noses at the unworldly humanoid with teeth bared.

The yellow figure began to speak. “Bleh bleh ble, cough cough well bleh bla I am a little shaken with my elephant seal, but you should be able to hear me now. Do you think I would be dumb enough to make my song only addictive to English speakers? Mwahahahahah, soon all of you oversized potatoes will be under my addictive control.”

Sealio 2 roared. “ We will crush you! Your stupid little song will never be able to take over my beach with the strength of my muscles and my friendships.”

Sealio had wandered off to the side, getting away from the intimidating figure.

The pudding cup guy smirked and giggled like a little girl. “ Your beach? My song will take over through multiple worlds! Haven’t you noticed some strange attendees today? They are all from different worlds where my song will continue to spread. Ha ha heheheh.”

Sealio 2 charged at him, but the puddings cup guy blasted him with pudding out of his hands and he toppled over to the floor.

“How pathetic” the pudding guy smirked.

The pudding guy pulled out a big megaphone. He inhaled his breath and flung his arm up in the air shooting pudding into the air.

“Pudding cups! I can’t get enough. I lov-“ The pudding guy felt blunt trauma on top of himself causing him to be cut off. It felt like he had been hit by a truck and he slammed to the floor. Despite the pain, he felt he still continued to sing weakly.

Sealio had snuck up behind him on some of the bleachers, while Sealio 2 and the pudding cup guy were talking to each other. The pudding guy's few seconds of singing before the crash almost overtook him, but he was able to push through and slam himself against the pudding cup guy. Any other human who would take that hit would be broken in many places, but the pudding cup guy almost felt like rubber against his armor chest place. The singing still continued and Sealio's mind was taken away and felt blurry. This may be his last glimpse of consciousness, but it was bittersweet knowing he went with a fight. All he felt was pudding cups.

...
POV Hendrix

Hendrix awoke suddenly someone was rapidly shaking his shoulders causing his head to bobble rapidly. He scratched his head and opened up his eyes in surprise.

“Wha-what’s wrong?” He yelped, sitting up straight.

“Shush” she brought a finger close to his lip. “The person who knocked you out is right outside and we want to not catch their attention”

The person who had awoken Hendrix had sharp teeth and a cat-like nose just like him. She had short purple wavy hair and appeared to be quite older than him. She looked exactly like his best friend Mayve.

“Mayve, is that you? You look so different. I am so confused.” He whispered to her.

“ There is a lot of stuff that you're missing out on, but I am your Mayve. It just took a few decades for our world to figure out how to hop dimensions, and I didn’t plan on letting you get stuck in a different dimension from ours.” She smiled.

Hendrix moved his head to the side and looked over two to see that the room also has four additional people. They all looked the same with their finery red hair and ghost hunter spirit. It was four different Ashes. One of them waved and Hendrix while another one looked suspicious of him.

“Hey, Ash. Why are you here?” Hendrix asked not sure how to address four girls that were all the same person.

They all began speaking at the same time and talked over one another. One ash spoke up.“ I got this one. I knows this guy.” All the other ashes piped down.

Ash 1 explained. “While you were doing whatever I had gotten knocked out by the mysterious pudding quite early. When I woke up I kept running into more Ashes, and with our combined sleuthing skills we were able to figure out that the pudding cup guy was behind the pudding. We met up with this chick and she also warned us about the music, so we were able to avoid listening to his song.

Ash 3 piped up. “Apparently we can get much more done teamin up with other versions of ourselves instead of other-dimensional randos.”

Ash 2 joined in “ I still don’t trust you.”

“Settle down everyone. I need every one of you to help me if we want to prevent this song from taking over every edge of existence.” Mayve cut it.

Mayve pulled out two distinctive-looking guns with sleek-looking designs. She spun one of them and pointed it at the wall. She had shown great trigger discipline in her silly trick. “One of these guns erases the past hour from someone’s memories, the other one will send a person back to their original dimension. Our goal is to hit anyone who heard the song with the memory wipe gun, and to send our dimensional travelers back home.”

Mayve pulled out a big crate and unbuckled the latch. Inside were five pairs of guns for each additional person in the room. Hendrix picked up one of the guns and felt its smooth surface.

“ How are we going to tell who is from another dimension. So many people came to this event that they can’t all be travelers.” Said Hendrix.

“Oh, I don’t know? Try aiming for the furries, the moving intimate objects, the mythical creatures, and people obviously drawn in a different style.” Sarcastically remarked Ash 2.

Hendrix whimpered.

Mayve sheepishly chuckled. “ The dimension gun detects when someone needs to be sent to a different place. So don’t worry about it.”

Hendrix stood up with guns in his hand. All the Ashes were also equipping themselves. Hendrix was about to head out when Maybe grabbed his shoulder. It felt weird seeing Maybe much older, but still towering over her in heigh. Older Mayve reached up on her tippy toes and put headphones over Hendrix’s pointed ears.

“You are going to need these. If you hear the pudding cups song I will have to wipe your memory, and that would be pretty sad.” She teased.

Hendrix nodded. “ So is anything going to play on these things?”

“Yeah, just the usual.” She said while walking out.

Mayve, Hendrix, Ash, Ash, Ash, and Ash gathered outside guns ready and loaded.

“Right now the pudding cup guy is singing in elephant sealinese, so go for the humanoids first,” Mayve suggested.

They all nodded at one another.
“Let’s split up, gang!” Ash 4 optimistically cheered.

Everyone went in different directions to try to cover the most amount of ground. Hendrix decided to stay a little closer to Mayve since it felt nice having a familiar friend for the first time today. Mayve pointed her gun at a fox-like humanoid and double shot at him wiping the past hour of his memory and sending him back home. Hendrix decided to take his time more slowly though since he did not want to be the reason for a whole world getting a song stuck in their head. The music on his headphones started playing synth-pop deafeningly covering up any other noise around him.

Hendrix shot the memory sip gun at a person with wings making sure he got a good shot. He then blasted her with the dimensional gun and the winged women had disappeared. Hendrix looked over to Mayve and she was giving him a thumbs up. They all had to avoid raging elephant seals that were whiny in pain from the song. They were able to send many people back to their original dimensions, but it was becoming really hard with the elephant seals still reacting badly to the singing.

Hendrix saw the pudding guy prying his limbs out from under a gigantic male elephant seal still singing with a megaphone in his hand. He ran over and kicked it away from his grip to the groovy beat of the music. Hendrix was pulled back from the man by Mayve who was very scared of the pudding guy. Most of the Ashes were near the stadium where the pudding cups man lay. He was able to pry himself from under the seal and began rising up with pudding underneath him. The ground shook widely causing Hendrix to fall to the ground. The pudding guy raised his hands up and began to accumulate a giant ball of pudding. Was he planning to cover up the whole beach with pudding? Hendrix braced and Mayve stood in front of Hendrix despite her smaller size.

The pudding man laughed wildly, but neither of them could hear any of it over the blaring music. A giant beam of white light flashed through the beach directly flying through the pudding cup man. As the light faded and Hendrix’s eyes adjusted to the light he saw that the pudding cup man had been completely obliterated. Mayve yanked off Hendrix’s headphones and pulled him off of the ground. His ears needed to adjust to Mayve’s voice for a second.

“We need to tell all the Ashes to shoot at the creature coming over the horizon with our dimensional guns.” Mayve frantically informed.

Hendrix looked over to see a giant lanky dark creature in the ocean. It looked like one of the monstrous angels in neon genesis Evangelion. If it was able to destroy the mysterious pudding man it could obliterate everything on this beach. The two of them split up to tell Ash to shoot at the monster.

Hendrix pulled off two of the Ashes headphones “Ash and Ash!? We need to shoot at that with our dimensional guns?”

Both of the ashes looked at the creatures with mouths wide open. On the other side of the beach, Mayve and two Ashes were shooting at the monster. The beams were able to reach all the way across the ocean but weren’t enough to send it back to the dimension it came from. Hendrix began shooting at the black void of a monster. Now all six of them were combining their powers to vanquish the creature.

The monster roared loudly causing the ground to shake again. The beams had been able to slowly disintegrate the creature from the bottom up. Light began to form around the head of the creature, they might not have enough time to defeat it. The monster twisted around again as it was slowly ripped piece by piece from the universe. It unleashed its blast first hitting the ocean and coming toward the beachfront. Hendrix closed his eyes and braced himself. He could feel the rain falling on him and absolutely soaking him. He slowly opened his eyes to see the attack left a visible mark in the ocean, but stopped right at the edge of the beach. The water that was thrown up into the air was now gently falling on the beach's saviors.

They all ran towards the center of the beach. The ashes were jumping up in down in celebration, and Mayve was wiping the sweat off of her brow. The six of them made peace signs with their hand and brought them together.

“GO TEAM VENTURE!” They all said in unison. ...
POV Sealio

Sealio woke up from his pudding cup sedation. He completely forgot what song had been stuck in his head. He also had forgotten about the heart-to-heart he had with his other self. Despite that, he still felt strangely calmer being around him

“Are you okay?” Sealio 2 asked him.

“ No, everything feels painful.” Sealio moped.

“ That was one hell of a fight. I know that you were not here for the strong man competition, but you would make a great competitor.” Sealio 2 complemented.

Sealio scoffed and puffed out his chest.

“ Well, think about it. Some strange humans are going around sending people back to their original dimensions, and I’m assuming that includes you.”

Sealio 2 looked over at Hendrix who was the one who wiped Sealios brain clean of the song. He looked down at the human and tipped his head down at the dimension gun to try to tell him to shoot his other-self.

“ bla bleh ble bla” Hendrix said before pointing the gun at Sealio.

“ Protect the girls for me.” Sealio 2 said.

Sealio was blasted by the gun. He was instantly transported onto his original beach. All her girls were still sleeping as the mourning light crept over the horizon. One of the seals yawned and threw sand onto her back.

“You are up early,” said Sealena.
“I had a very strange dream,” Sealio said.

He laid his head down in the sand to try to get some rest before any other males seals tried to fight him. He didn’t realize that in the distance workers were setting up the beach for a strong man competition. Sealio would have to deal with the intruder coming on his territory once he woke up from his nap.

...
POV Hendrix

Hendrix shot the dimensional gun at the last Ash. She waved goodbye to him. He handed the dimensional gun back to Mayve. They had completely wiped the memory of everyone who heard the song and cleaned up the beach of dimensional dwellers.

“So how do we get back,” Hendrix asked her.
“Well, I shoot you with a gun, and then come back the way I came from.” She told him.

Hendrix looked at the dimensional gun nervously. “There are a few things I wanted to ask you before I go then.”

“I’ll tell you what I can.” She said sitting down.

The award ceremony for the strong man competition was playing out in front of them. Sealio 2 did very well but didn’t win this year's strong man competition. He lost gracefully and was shaking the hand of Elphanso, who had placed first.

“ Was this all my fault? It feels like I would have been the only one to cause this whole crisis since we're always running around time.” He questioned worriedly.

“ No, it’s not. Even though the Pudding cups guy thought he brought everyone together it wasn’t his doing either. In another dimension, all the people who were transported here were characters in some animation students' thesis films, and that somehow manifested everyone here. You just happen to have a friend who could figure a way to hop dimensions to come to get you.”

Hendrix looked up. “ Thanks, Mayve. I’m glad we are still friends in the future.”

Mayve giggle and blushed. “ Of course we’re still friends. I don’t know what I would do without you.”

“Also, was there any reason you didn’t come earlier? You might’ve prevented a lot of damage”

“ Ahh, it was because we needed the perfect timing to kill that pudding cup guy and send the apocalypse monster back to its original dimension. It also would’ve made for a boring April Fools story.” She laughed.

Hendrix looked over at her and raised his eyebrow at her. Mayve was pointing the dimensional gun right at his face and pulled the trigger. In an instant, Hendrix had been returned back to his original dimension.

...
POV Mayve

Mayve continues to relax on the beach for a little. The setting sun made the beach glow orange and the sand felt nice and cool between her toes. Before falling into a relaxing nap she looks into the camera and winks.
