Gabriel had no idea what the hell was going on. Everyone in his village was getting sick and sprouting a horn from the center of their forehead. No one knew why this was happening and it was causing a panic throughout the village. Gabriel was very perceptive, and realized that the disease started with a traveler from another village coming into the village riding on a horse that had a horn on its head, or as others liked to call it, a unicorn. And now, basically everyone in his village was sick and bed ridden other than him. So it was up to Gabe to find out what this disease was and how to help his village.

So then started Gabriel's journey to find the origin of this new, "unicorn plague." With his sword in his sheathe being the only thing Gabe had to protect himself, he traveled from village to village, gathering information on when the disease started for them, and who it started with. He found who brought it into the village and where they came from, and he would go there, eventually coming across a glorious castle with a rainbow over it, and unicorns grazing on a field in front of it. This was no doubt the place that the disease came from. So it was time for Gabe to go in and find a way to stop the plague from spreading any further.

"That is far enough," said a woman's voice. Gabe looked around, confused as to where the voice came from. "In front of you," she spoke once more. All that was in front of him was just another unicorn. Though the unicorn was probably the purest white and most beautiful out of any of the other unicorns.

Gabe was confused. "You?" He asked, just to clarify that this was where the voice came from.

"Yes," the unicorn replied. "I am a talking unicorn. My name is Uni, and I am the goddess of unicorns."

Gabriel unsheathed his blade and pointed it at Uni. "Were you the one who started this plague?" Gabe asked sternly. "How can I stop it?"

"Yes," Uni replied. "I started the plague, and I do not plan on letting it end so soon." Uni simply tapped her horn against the tip of Gabe's sword, causing a magical glow to flow down the sword and onto Gabe's body.

Gabe was confused and scared, causing him to drop his sword and try to rub the glow from his skin, but to no avail. Eventually the glow engulfed Gabriel entirely, and it transformed his body into that of a unicorn. And to be entirely honest, it felt quite nice in this body.

The humans of the world were erased and replaced entirely with peaceful unicorns who had no wars or issues whatsoever. All that remained was peace and unicorns.
