''"Hello my name is Galywad. Me and my assistant Filerwack are going to go on an adventure!  This is going to be quite an adventure because we probably will not stay on our own planet. We will move far away, all though we might not even leave our own galaxy. The extraordinary vehicle which for lack of anything else to call it we will call it the time machine will take us to the unknown. What follows is a true account of what happened. Shall we start?�''

�Are you sure this is a good idea Galywad? If we don�t know where it will take us how do we get back? I consider the world to be a big place should we go as far as the universe?� asked Filerwack   

�Very good questions Filerwack and I have some very good answers,� answered Galywad �First I am very sure this is a good idea.  Second, it would not be an adventure if we could come back at any time, now would it?  And lastly, the world is a tiny place when compared to the universe, but we might not go farther than a few miles. 

�Here we go, we are taking off,� he said to him self, as the time machine took off.  

�Ah! Good we landed in one piece.  Now then where are we?�

�It does not look like home,� assessed Filerwack

�Hmm according to the sensors the air is breathable, the gravity is similar to home�s, and No visible animals are in sight.  Shall we explore?� asked Galywad. 

�I suppose there is no stopping you.� Filerwack submitted.    

�Then let�s go,� revved Galywad, and they exited the time machine.

�Arooahhhhhhh!� Roared something.

�What the! A dysnithyme!?� Galywad was confused. 

�What is a dysnithyme?� questioned Filerwack.	

�A dysnithyme is a mobile, carnivorous, and extremely dangerous plant, native to the planet Rudstrame,� replied Galywad. 

�I think it might be a good idea to run, to run fast, and to not stop running,� shouted Filerwack, quite energized.

�I quite agree,� stammered Galywad, as they started to run.

�It is still coming!� Screamed Filerwack a few minutes later. 

�Wait, I think I have a bottle of weed spray!  Give me a second to get it out. Here we go!� Said Galywad, as he sprayed the dysnithyme with the weed spray. 

�Areeeeeeeeeeeeeee!� Writhed the dysnithyme, as it died.

�Oh no!� Galywad cried.  He was frantic.  �The time machine!  We are running out of time!  We had better get back to it!�    

A few minutes later... 

�Thank god it is still here,� sighed Filerwack.

�Why would you want to thank God?� asked Galywad, �he had nothing to do with it, and contrary to common believe he is not all powerful. I know him myself. We should probably take off now.� He punctuated, as they climbed in to the time machine. �Here we go!  We are taking off!� 

Suddenly there is an explosion.

�What happened?� shouted Filerwack.  

�It appears to be a malfunction of the transpatial/trans-temporal flux!�  Galywad remained calm. 

�Say that again, but this time in English,� Filerwack muttered under sarcastic breath.   

�Gladly, something went wrong with the machine that moves the time machine. That English enough for you?� He retorted, even more sarcastic than Filerwack. 

�Yes that is better,� said Filerwack, �by the way where are we?� 

�We appear to be in a temporal/spatial crossroad,� explained Galywad. �A temporal/spatial crossroad is like roads were machines like the time machine go to get places, it is like a cable and the time machine is the cable car, get me?�

�Yes I guess,� said Filerwack, who had completely lost his bearings at this point. 

�Let us have a look around,� explored Galywad, as they climbed out of the time machine. 

�Rguuuuggrrr!� Screamed a behemoth monster, It came out of nowhere, lunging at the two humans.     

�That is a multidimensional beast, something I�ve heard only in theory. It occurs only when two things go in to a trans-temporal/trans-spatial flux and come out in the same place. They fuse together and become one monstrous thing.  This specimen appears to be a cross between a terrestrial lion, and a dysnithyme.�                   

�Not more dysnithyme, groaned Filerwack.

�Yes more dysnithyme, don�t worry I have an idea,� responded Galywad.

�I am glad you thought of the idea before making us run a mile like last time,� Grumbled Filerwack.

�When I say now, dodge to the left,� Galywad instructed. After a few seconds, Galywad said, �now.�

Both Filerwack and Galywad dodged to the left, and the multi-dimensional beast tripped over a leafy tendril, and cracked it�s head on a jagged piece of rock.   

�Well where do we go now?� inquired Filerwack.	         

�Who knows?� Galywad said cheerfully.

�I guess this means another trip in the time machine,� Filerwack sighed, �wait! I just thought of something, what if the time machine malfunctions again?�

�It won�t,� Galywad reassured Filerwack, �it is impossible for it to malfunction again. The exact reason why is as yet unknown�  

�That is a big relief. Filerwack sighed, the no malfunction part I mean, not the unexplained part.�

�And we take off again, Cried Galywad enthusiastically, now then where are we,Galywad wondered. Let's see, we appear to be in a space station orbiting a planet similar planet to home. Shall we explore?�
