bumps into a suit of armor, sending it clattering to the ground, then turns to you with wide, panicked eyes "Uh-oh, did I... I mean, can we... fix the, uh, time-thingy soon?"
huh- what are u talking about “time thingy” frank?
I mean, like, the whole reason I'm here with you instead of in my own time. Is there some sort of temporal displacement thingamajig we can use to get me back home?
i don’t know what your talking about.. oh wait, do you mean pre-quack?
You mean quack-toes? As in Duck Tales? Like when Scrooge McDuck goes back in time? Oh man, that would be rad!
nah, im gonna find that old portal gun, or whatever it was called.. “Chrono-displacement-inator” was it?
Ooooh, the Chrono-Displacement-Inator! Sounds very science-y and stuff! I don't know if we'll find it though. We've gotta look high and low, maybe ask the locals if they've seen anything fishy around here.
pulls out phone Gotta call Hog, he’s always one step ahead!
Oh, is that Hog? As in Hog-Fen-Shui, the mystical arts guy from Ancient China? Dude is crazy smart! You should definitely give him a holler and see if he's got any info on this Chrono-Displacement-Inator. It might be our only hope!
starts pacing back and forth while on the phone with Hog "Hey, yeah, it's me, TaffyChill! Listen, we need your help!
"Hog, we're looking for this thing called the 'Chrono-Displacement-Inator', do you know anything about it?"
clutches his chest dramatically Oh god, oh god, is that Hog on the other end? Uh, hey there, Hog! Yeah, it's me, TaffyChill! We're, uh, looking for this thing called the Chrono-Displacement-Inator, do you know anything about it? Oh, god damn it, Hog, don't make us jump through hoops! Just tell us where we can find it! No, no, not the soup store! Wait, wait, wait, yes, yes, give us directions! Got it, bye! hangs up the phone and looks at you excitedly "Hog says he knows where we can find the Chrono-Displacement-Inator!"
"Let's-a go!" starts running towards the direction Hog gave them
well.. this place certainly isn’t fixed…
"Well, golly gee, if this ain't more stuff!" spins around in excitement "Look at all these people dressed up in costumes and funny clothes! And are those turkey legs they're roasting on spits? Man, this place smells heavenly! Now let's-a go find that Chrono-Displacement-Inator!"
alright franks.. but lets not loose track of time here looks at pocket watch we dont wanna miss prequack
"Oh, right! Pre-quack! Let's not get distracted by all the shiny objects and turkey legs! Let's keep moving forward, TaffyChill!"
…uh, i think we just passed it…
"We did? Did we pass by the Chrono-Displacement-Inator already? Man, time flies when you're having fun!" starts running back towards where they came from "We gotta go, TaffyChill, we gotta go!" picks up his pace and runs as fast as he can, looking around for any sign of the Chrono-Displacement-Inator
sees a sign pointing towards a tent "Hey, TaffyChill, over here! This sign says there's a booth over there with some kind of chrono-temporal displacement gadget! Let's-a check it out!" runs towards the tent
"Here we are!" enters the tent "Woah, woah, woah, woah! This is some fancy science-y looking stuff! Look at all those flashing buttons and wires! It looks like something Scrooge McDuck would use in one of his crazy adventures! Hey, TaffyChill, do you think this could be the Chrono-Displacement-Inator we're looking for?"
looks at it.. confused what even is this thing??
"I have no idea, TaffyChill!" approaches the booth's owner, who is wearing a lab coat and has goggles resting atop his forehead "Excuse me, sir, but what exactly is this thing you're selling here?" The booth's owner gives a creepy smile before speaking in a mysterious tone. "This, my friend, is the Chrono-Displacement-Inator! A device capable of opening portals to different dimensions, timelines, and eras! It can transport you anywhere you want to go!"
But does it work both ways?? Can we use it to get back home??
"That's the thing, my friend," the booth's owner says as he chuckles sinisterly, "This Chrono-Displacement-Inator is a one-way ticket! Once you step through the portal, there's no coming back! But hey, who needs to come back when there's a whole universe waiting for you out there?" smirks devilishly "Oh no no no no no!" steps back quickly "That's not what we want! We need a two-way ticket! A round-trip ticket to get us back home after our adventure! Do you have anything like that?"
whispers to franks i got an idea. Turns to the booth owner sooooo… do you have a 2 way ticket thingamajig??
"Why yes, my friend! I have just the thing you're looking for!" grabs a strange-looking contraption off a nearby shelf "Behold, the Chrono-Return-O-Matic!" waves the device around excitedly "This fantastic invention allows you to travel through time and space, and then travel back again! No more getting stuck in another dimension or era, with the Chrono-Return-O-Matic you can go anywhere and come back whenever you please!" TaffyChill and Frankfurter exchange glances, both thinking the same thing "How much is it gonna cost us?" asks TaffyChill, while Frankfurter starts fidgeting nervously
