You begin to scream again, when suddenly the big brown and green "bony" ship comes up to you. You stand still, not knowing what to do.
"Come on in!" comes a voice. "Ain't no body here but me! Oh yeah, and Pelvis..."
You walk into the ship, which opens up like a mouth, and makes you walk on it's deep violet "tongue." You walk through the ship, whose corridors remind you of the slimey insides of a monster, and creeps you out a bit. Finally, you get to a main room of the ship.
A lanky, wart-faced, green skinned, mouse-nosed creatures come up to you. It looks like some sort of lizard in purple clothing, and it even has frills and a tail.
"Greetings..." the creature says. "I am Emperor...errr...I mean, Pelvus, second-in-command of the Great and All-Powerful Emperor Femur."
You nodd politely at Pelvus.
Suddenly, two fireworks explode an both sides of Pelvus, sending him flying and you scrambling backwards. The firecrackers are relatively small, and not as fancy as some other ones, fizzling out quickly and much to your releif.
"Oh, I'm *so* sorry Pelvus, did I frighten you?" came the voice you heard earlier.
Emperor Femur comes out, an "innocent" look plastered all over his face.
"Once again, your Powerfulness, you have frightened me, your timid and ever-working servant" Pelvus replies. He tries to sound polite, but you can tell he's really upset.
"Good answer, bucko" Femur grins widely. He turns to you. "So, you're another sap...uh, I mean 'visitor' of the Cyberforest, eh?" He looks you over. "Well, you're certainly more durable than the last few. Lamprey almost managed to get away with them. Don't worry though, they're fine. Starlight wouldn't let anything happen to anyone who comes here. Cyberforest's her world, after all."
You glance quizzically at him, wondering what he means.
"What, you didn't know Starlight rules this joint?" he asks, surprised. "This isn't just her forest...it's her universe. Ever since you went in here, you haven't been in your own world. You've been in hers. Scary, ain't it?" Emperor laughs, slapping you on the back, but he's so short he ends up slapping you on your leg.
"I've learned to love it here..." the Emperor continues. "Being Starlight85's favourite characters has it's advantages. I get cool free stuff here." He hold up a small t-shirt saying 'I luv the Cyberforest' on it in red letters. "Can't go wrong with free stuff" Femur says with a chuckle. "And, I also get some time to relax. I mean, with the war going on and all..." he trails off.
You blink, not knowing what he means.
The Emperor and Pelvus both stare back at you. "You don't know about the war?!?!" Emperor Femur asks, putting a hand to his frilled head.
You reply you know about the Beast Wars, but not of any other one.
"Bones and flesh!" Emperor Femur says, obviously some sort of swear word. "We gotta teach you! If you want to find out more about Shadow Raiders or War Planets, go to this page, the official site for Shadow Raiders. That place has lotsa stuff." The Emperor grins. "I wouldn't suggest going to any of those other boring places...just look at planet Bone. You won't be disappointed. Everything else there ain't really interesting. Unless you wanna drool over pictures of Jade and Tekla..." Femur breaks off into an even wider grin as Pelvus mumbles something you can't catch.
"Eh, what wazzat Pelvus?" Femur asks.
"I was...only reccomending the page to this new visitor" Pelvus says mildly. "The human can either go to that page, or go back down the path to the crossroads. It has to make the choice."
"Well, buddy" the Emperor looks towards you. "Go on and choose!" he grins as you make your desicion.
