It's About Time, part 2.5: Journey to Tartarus

[no_vampires_plz]

As the three humans, one Hyrulian, one unicorn, and one demon-dog press forward, the character of the woods around them changes. The undergrowth gets denser, the canopy above lets in less light, and the flora in general is much more... exotic than what one usually sees in the woods by the lake.

"Now, I know that the pathway to Tartarus starts somewhere in this general area," says Twilight. "But I don't know of its exact location. It's not something that ponies really want to advertise."

He lets out another relieved sigh--one he can actually enjoy this time.

"Don't give them too much trouble, okay?"

"SHOW THAT BIRD WHO'S THE ALPHA DOG AROUND HERE!!" Moon Shadow howls towards Cerberus, hands cupped around his mouth.

"..thanks for escorting us the rest of the way."

That was directed more so at the sheepguards. Soldiers.

"Eh, weren't nuthin'," says the baritone-voiced sheep. "'S our job t' make sure Cerberus is looked after properly, roight, Bruce?"

"Roight, Bruce," says the tenor-voiced sheep. "We had a dilly of a time keepin' the gates shut while he was gone, lemmie tell ya..."

84 is hovering trying her best not to feel sad that she's never going to see the giant puppy again. Then she gives into temptation and zooms over to give Cerberus a big hug.

"No more biting Mandrakes okay? Take care big guy!" she commands.

Cerberus wags his tail and attempts to lick 84 with all three heads at once. He succeeds with only one of them, but given that his tongue is as large as she is, that's more than enough.

Twilight giggles a little to herself. "C'mon, guys. Let's go home."
