Meteor Effect

The Return And A Few Other Happenings

Cub is happy to listen as Scar lands on his shoulder having finished his rant, "Yeah, how big are diamonds compared to you? The size of your head right?"

Scar dramatically flares his wings out before jumping off Cub and fazeing through the floor, "Yep, thank goodness Xisuma figured out a way to get miniature blocks and things."

"You're the only one who can fully interact with them," Cub muses, "You could make a business out of that placing them perfectly against walls and corners."

Scar giggles a smile splitting his face, "That's a pretty good idea." Then a crash could be heard from outback the two look at each other then run outside to check it out.

"The one time I try to fly somewhere," Zedaph grumbles, becoming visible and removing the broken elytra from his back.

"You ok?" Cub asks, as Scar flies up and hovers in front of Zedaph's face.

"I'm fine, just a little banged up," Zedaph explains as he starts brushing sand out of his wool.

Scar and Cub stick around helping Zedaph for a few minutes before they bid farewell and head back inside. As they start walking they hear Zedaph bleat. Turning around they see him facepalming and motioning for them to stop moving.

Once they comply he explains that he's trying to herd and would have followed them around.

......

Zedaph steps through a nether portal and promptly turns invisible when he hears a blood-curdling scream. Rushing as fast as he can towards the source of the sound, when he gets closer to the source he sees Grian crumpled on the ground next to the corpse of the button. Iskall is standing next to him laughing their head off and attempting to get him to stand up. In Iskall's pockets, Vee and Echo are poking their eyes above the pockets.

Iskall spots Zedaph and waves him over, stepping over the distraught Grian, "Hey, Zed, did Grian scare you?"

Zedaph nods, "Yeah, he screamed right as I got here."

"Sorry, he's upset about the button?" Iskall explains hauling Grian up and dragging him back to his base.

"Wait!" Zedaph calls out, when Iskall turns around again he explains, "Remember, how I'll start herding?"

Iskall makes an oh shape with their mouth before stopping and letting Zedaph get through his portal before he drags Grian over to Mumbo's base to let him deal with Grian.

"Etho, are you kidding me!" Bdubs yells, marching up the ninja.

Etho grins turning to Bdubs, "What did I do?"

Bdubs sticks his tongue out mockingly, "You know what you did, shuffling my chests around."

Etho hops down off the music box laughing his head off as Beef and Doc turn the corner from the lama shop.

The two groups greet each other before getting ready to play stat poker. Doc wins by a landslide, he is the goat after all. The others act mock offended as the creeper hisses jokingly as they get too close to his winnings.

The four of them walk around the shopping district shopping and looking at things in the windows. They get over to the town hall and the polls, Doc is vaguely offended that no one is voting in his favor.

Beef leans over and says, "You wouldn't be a good mayor."

Doc bares his teeth hissing at Beef who starts running away. Doc smiles and chases after him. Etho and Bdubs look at each other before running after them.

They end up at Zedaph's shop where he's checking if anyone got anything, he blinks confused at Doc and Beef, "Um I'm going now."

Doc and Beef laugh at this for a second as the wave to him, then Etho and Bdubs walk over. Zedaph follows them with his head before he pivots and follows after them.

Once they notice Zedaph following they freeze and give Zedaph a chance to leave.

.......

"Are you seriously running for mayor?" Xisuma asks as Exy helps him file down his horns as they are getting a bit long and uncomfortable.

"I don't have anything better to do," Exy shrugs as he double-checks to make sure his brother's horns were even.

"Well, what are your plans?" Xisuma asks as he goes into full reporter mode, his spines lying as flat against his back as possible.

Exy rolls his eyes before explaining, "The mayor is going to choose what to do with the diamonds, I think if someone loses their gear in lava and they can't replace it the town hall gives them enough to regain what they've lost. If we do that the diamonds still get circulated which will help the economy."

As Exy explains his plans Zedaph shows up to show him the posters he had made for the campaign. Xisuma rolls his Eyes as his brother and Zedaph start running around preparing stuff for the campaign, he decides to make some tea and watch the shenanigans unfold.

When Zedaph says goodbye and starts walking away heading over to the nether portal Exy's over the top waving catches his attention. He ends up turning around and landing next to the void twins. Xisuma starts laughing as Exy looks over at Zedaph confused. Eventually, he gets it and opens his mouth in an oh shape. Zedaph grins before attempting to leave again.

.........

Zedaph is over by Tango and Impulse's wool farm, he just went over to pick up some gray wool. Hearing a sheep bleat draws him out of the building and over to where Tango and Impulse had released some of the extra sheep. Those sheep hadn't wandered too far and were still visible from the farm.

Zedaph wanders over to where the sheep have gathered. They walk up to him and nudge him into the middle of the herd. Zedaph smiles at how cute it was. One of the smaller sheep head but's him, making him fall over and be at eye level with most of the herd.

Some of the lambs walk up to him and start jumping around trying to get him to play with them. After a few moments, Zedaph starts playing with them, jumping around and chasing each other a few of the lambs would head butt him around.

Eventually, they grew tired of playing, and some of the older sheep came over to guide them back. By now the sun was setting, and Zedaph realized that the sheep had been moving throughout the day. By now they are miles away from the sheep farm. Bleating softly Zedaph pulls his communicator out and sends a message to the main chat.

Zedaph: I may have gotten completely lost...

Cleo: How?

Zedaph: I found a herd of sheep :/

TangoTek: Wool farm?

Zedaph: Yep

Impulse: We'll come to get you.

Putting his communicator away Zedaph lies down on the grass next to some of the Sheep that had already fallen asleep. Minutes later he's asleep as well.

The next thing he knows is he's being nudged awake by one of the sheep. She gets everyone up as two voices get closer. Recognizing the voices Zedaph is able to calm the herd down and get them to follow him as he makes his way to his friends. Somehow he manages to get the entire herd to live near the Cave of contraptions.
