Misadventures of Melonhead

Chapter 4

"So, what you're telling me is; You created this timeline to escape your timeline, and now the beasts that inhabit that other timeline are coming here and everyone needs to leave. Apart from my daughter, who must stay?" Honeydew asked in a confused tone.

Latte nodded and said, "Unfortunately, yes. It's the only way I could see everyone making it out alive." She walked inside the portal room and examined the now-cracked container. "That is unless you want to fight for your life against many monsters," She suggested.

Honeydew sighed and said nothing. Melon walked up to the container and asked, "Do you remember what those monsters were like?" Latte took a moment to think "All I can remember is they had the best magic I have ever seen. Which isn't a good thing." She said before walking out of the portal room.

"Alright, you two should start gathering people before it's too late, they may come earlier than I originally expected," Latte said, beginning to pack her things up. Melon and Honeydew nodded and used the device to teleport back to their village. Melon told Honeydew she was going to go to the Khalopian kingdom and warn everyone she could there.

Maria came out of the castle to ask, "Melon, what's going on? Why're you yelling across the kingdom?" Melon was slightly startled at the random questions. "Oh, hi Maria! I can explain in a little. I'll meet you in the castle. Make sure Lime and Laura are awake too" Melon said before beginning to run around warning more people.

About 20 minutes went by and Melon finally got at least the majority of the kingdom to begin packing their things and leave. The only place left was the castle. Melon ran inside the castle as fast as she could. "Alright!... I'm here" she said out of breath.

"Melon, honey take a seat, relax," Laura said helping her to a seat. Lime was trying his best not to laugh at Melon. "This isn't funny, asshole. She has something important to say." Maria said already annoyed at Lime.

After Melon managed to catch her breath she began explaining everything Latte told her. Laura and Maria believed her. Lime...thought it was just a prank Melon was trying to pull off or one she fell for.

"Where will we be going?" Laura asked as Maria was scolding Lime for making a joke out of it. Melon sighed "I don't know where exactly but you guys will be safe in another universe." she said smiling a little. Laura then nodded and asked, "What about you and your mother?" Melon's smile quickly faded away, she didn't want to alarm anyone but also didn't want to lie about it either. After a bit, she decided it'd be best if she just told the truth.

"I again, don't know about my mom...but I'm supposed to be staying here, I don't know why. Latte never told me why I have to stay during this apocalypse." Melon said hesitantly. Maria stopped scolding Lime after hearing that. "What?! Melon, are you crazy?! If the most life-threatening monsters are coming here, you must get out of here!" Maria began shouting.

Melon tried to soothe Maria and reassure her that she'd be okay. "Alright, if Melon's staying, I will too. She has no magic to our knowledge so if this is true, she'll be dead." Lime said grabbing one of his guns. Maria stated that she'd stay too.

Laura was nervous but confident enough in both of her children that she allowed it. Melon nodded and began leading everyone to that same empty space and opened a portal to the hidden village.

Before Laura went in she handed Melon a map. "Here you go, Melon here's a map of every village and kingdom. So you won't be scrambling around wasting time." She said walking into the portal.

Melon, Lime, and Maria then decided to head to the closest village. One called "The phantom plane". Melon remembered hearing about that place from someone before getting reset back in time by Glitched.
