Oswald was expecting company at Toon Castle. Why shouldn't he? He had been placing ads all over Aldeon saying that his sanctuary for all Toons was almost complete and that the open house was today. He even supplied free food and entertainment.
"Here's hoping Mickey shows up," Oswald thought to himself, "He would definitely be a big help."
Oswald walked up to the castle entrance, straightened his blue bowtie and black tux, prayed to Yen Sid that somebody actually came, and opened the door to the castle, saying "Welcome to Toon Castle."

Reno looked at the guy, as he opened the door, he wasn't sure what place it was but he came to check it out, as he saw the add, also he wasn't sure what to expect of the place. After all he never heard of a place like that, and so he wanted to check it out. Yet when Reno got there, and saw who opened the door, he watched with curiousity, the guy look like a normal person, a guy that he could meet anywhere, but the way he acted and where he lived looked dofferent then what he was used to, not in a bad way so, but that was besides the point, Yet, he wasn't sure what to think or believe just the same, as none of it made sense, not to him anyway. Also it was rather interesting, more and more, by any passing moment, for him, to say the least. Reno tried to find something that told him that he either imagined it or something, but as he saw none of it, he just sighed.
"Thanks for the welcoming, I suppose" he said, as he had no idea what to think or say, nor believe even if few minutes or so pased, it still didn't change, which he doubted that it would. The other guy would have definitely fooled him, if he tried but the way he acted, also it was nice and sweet, other then something else he couldn;t put a finger on it, which told him that the guy wasn't like any he ever met in his life. The place the guy lived at was one prove that he wasn't like any other person. "You got an interesting place, right here" Reno said to the interesting Rabbit at the door. "I am sorry, I saw your ads by chance, so I thought to check it out, just in case. You definitely learn new things everyday" he added, as he smiled at him.
It was true that the outside looked interesting, as well as strange, to Reno at least. It also looked beautiful, but it didn't make him stop wondering what was it for, and now was no difference. There was no doubt in his mind now that the ads he saw were real, as well as there were toons, at least in that world and reality, and by the looks of things they weren't from around either. It did made Reno more and more confused so. Just to be even more sure he tried to pinch himself but it didn;'t chance nothing, the only explanation was that there were toons, that by the looks of things were most likely coursed to look like regular people, which shocked him, as well as upset, and he hoped to help them back in anyway he could, like find someone who could send them back as themselves, He felt bad for the guy, for the fact that he was alone, for now at least. Reno hoped for him that it won't be for long, though truthfully Reno understood him, as he felt alone too, also he did made some friends, but it wasn't the same without his friends back home.
(hope you don't mind, it would be funny but interesting, no doubt)

It already has been a week or so since Jake was given the offer to actually have someone willing to train him. At first, he was not sure what to do. Growing up, the kid never got the chance to decide anything about his life. Hell, back in Umacia there was an arranged marriage waiting for him. He didn’t know what to do. This was the first time he got to pick what he wanted to do. He spent three days figuring out what to do. He even tried finding someone else to train him, but got no such luck. Everyone shot him down. Saying that they had enough students or that he didn’t look like knight material, and was not worth training. He may look like he was a weakling, but he was not. He was a highly skilled swordsman however he was the clumsiest person alive. Always tripping over things, falling down stairs, and hurting himself were normal things for the kid. On average he would trip over things at least ten times a day daily.
Jake was still in bed despite the fact that it had to be late in the afternoon. As of late, he did not get much sleep. He had been spending his time studying this world’s magic, looking for a way home. Yet he still didn’t tell anyone of his magic and didn’t plan on it either. He was scared of using it and with what happened the other day was just plain weird. The sixteen year old didn’t know he had powers like that. Maybe he should put his life in danger more often. Jake yawned, finishing putting on a new bandaged around his lower abdomen. He winced as he tied it. It was probably stupid of him to be up and about in his condition. After all, it all happened two days ago. The wound was still fresh from the ogre’s blade. Yet he didn’t care. He needed something to get his mind off of his family. Besides, it was best time that he told Oswald that he finally made up his mind.
Now the only problem was where on earth did he put the thing given to him that day… Oh right… Jake could almost hit himself for not remembering. It had to be in his bag, right? That was the last place he put it. If he remembered right that is. The sixteen year old grabbed his bag and look through it. Why did he have so much stuff in here…? Maybe he should clean it out later. After another minute or two of searching, he found what he was looking for. Jake pressed the button in the middle. Now he stood in front of a huge castle…? Just what was he getting himself into here? Tagged: Oswald, Reno Notes: -- Words: 467

Oswald sighed. Not that many people showed up and the ones that did were mostly humans. He had hoped that a fellow Toon had ended up in Aledon. I guess he's on his own when it comes to explaining the concept of Toons.
Oswald looked at Reno and decided that he might as well let humans in too.
"Quite alright," he said, shruging his shoulders, "I was hoping that some of my fellow Toons ended up here, but I suppose I can't win all the time. Please, come in."
It was at this point that Oswald noticed Jake.
"Jake," Oswald said, happy that at least something's going his way, "It's good to see you. Welcome to Toon Castle. I take it you made a desicion on my offer?"

Reno looked at Oswalt and smiled at him, as he watched him closely. He then walked in, once he was invited in and allowed in side. Reno looked around himself, truly impressed with the place. "Thank you for being so kind, it is lovely home you got here" he said to him, with a smile. "Don't worry, I have no doubt that they will how up, in no time. Why would they not? You gave them a safe heaven, did you not? That is all anyone can ever hope for" Reno said to him. "Wish a lots of others were the same, but it's not always possible" he added. "Your home is rather lovely, my new friend" Reno said to him, few minutes later.
He then looked behind him, as he saw another person right behind him. Reno just looked between the two, as he nodded to the person, that came after him, as well as he smiled over at him, as he said this. He looked around, then back at the other two. They seemed nice and interesting, which was good, just like some of the people he met here so far. Which was a very good thing. For Reno at least. He felt that maybe, just maybe he met more friends, even so they were from different world and reality, then him. Which was both interesting, but good.
Reno maybe haven't spoken, to the other new comer, or the one that came after him, anyway but he somehow could tell that they were both good, just a gut feeling. Also he was on guard just in case, even if he doubted that it was needed, but he was anyway. Also it all seemed rather interesting to him, just the fact that they seemed different then many others he knew, maybe not much by look but still, it wasn't a bad thing of course, only surprising and interesting. Reno did consider that he might be dreaming, but the longer he was there, next to them, and the longer time passed, the more convinced he was that it was all as real as it got. None of it was what he ever imagined to happen, but it wasn't exactly a bad thing so. There was things that he didn't expect to happen, which did happen and were bad, and compared to them and the good unexpected things that happened to him, it was more leaning towards good then anything. For now anyway, also he knew it could go either way, but somehow he doubted that it would go bad, as it didn't look that way.
The two seemed to know each other, so by that he felt out-of-place. Other than that it was alright. Interesting and strange, but it was to be expected, and Reno knew it very well. The feeling of being out-of-place was normal, but he doubted it would last long, as he felt out-of-place a lot, yet in most cases like that it passed, and he was sure here would be the same.

"Are you quite all right, Jake?" Oswald asked, "I mean, it's good to see you, but you appear to be in pain. Please, come in."
Oswald guided Reno and Jake into a huge courtyard filled with large trees with an uncanny resemblance to the famous trees from The Lorax.
"You like the Truffula Trees," he asked his guests, "I got them as a going away present from Universal when Disney traded Al Michaels' contract was traded for me. Oh, but I'm getting ahead of myself."
Oswald opened a door that lead to a fancy parlor with three blue velvet cushioned chairs next to a fireplace that had a portrait of Walt Disney hanging above it.
"Everybody comfy?" he asked his new guests, "Now to explain this whole Toon thing. You see when drawings are given enough heart and soul put into their creation, the imagination of the drawer brings the character to life and create what we like to call 'a Toon'. Over the last century, many Toons were created and placed in an area just outside of Hollywood called Toontown.
We Toons were quite happy there and lived in peace. However, when this Aldeon place was created, I ended up stuck here. However, I have found purpose. With the help of donations from generous benefactors, I built this castle as a refuge for all Toons that end up here in Aldeon.
Oh, but enough of that, allow me to get you two some refreshments."
Oswald looked at Jake and asked, "Perhaps you prefer some kind of bandage?"

Reno looked between the two, as only then he too noticed that the other guy was in fact wounded. He sighed, as he was worried too, even if he only met the guy now, it was just in his personality. Reno then followed Oswald, before he spoke or replied to the other guy. He did however nod to him in respect. Reno then tried to help him walk, as he was worried that the guy would fain, fall or something like that.
"Like wise, and nice to meet you, I am Vince Black" He said, as he extended his hand to him to shake. Reno looked him over, as he wonder what happened, as he could tell that the guy was wounded but not how, or why. He wanted to know, just to know, and maybe even make the one who hurt him pay. After all, Reno hated when innocent and good people got hurt. It was still the same, even now, especially now. Reno was raised that way, as well as that was how he was going to stay, even now he refused to change, just as before.
Anyway, as the host spoke once more, he looked over, then around. "Those trees? They are very beautiful. And huh? What are you talking about? They gave it to you? They traded Al Micheals, for you? What do you mean, what for? What happened to make them do tha to you? Did you work for them or something? Wait Toons? As in cartoons? Sorry I don't have kids, nor home, so I am not good with things like that, not anymore that is" Reno said and sighed. "Wait a minute, are you from a cartoon? And the ones you are waiting for are too? Is that the idea?" he added, as he was shocked, confused and surprised by that.
Reno continued to follow, as he looked around in shock and disbelief, clearly didn't expect to see all of what he saw in the next room. He wa staring, then again he couldn't help it, not only was the place beautiful, but like something from tv, something that shouldn't be real but actually was real, as real as it got. Reno never thought that he would see that, and yet he did. He looked around for a few more minutes, then he set down, on one of the chairs, as he then looked back at the host.
Then Reno looked at the other guest, as he heard the question that the host asked them. He then looked at the host and nodded to him, in response. "Yes. At least I am, and I hope Jake, is too" Reno said, as he looked over at the other guest. "Are you alright? Are you comfortable?" he asked him, as he was of course serious, as before. Reno looked around the room once more, then between the two, and after that he looked back at the host.
For a while he just listened but didn't react. As he had no idea what to say, or how to react at all to what he heard. "You are kidding right? It is actual a town? A real town at that? How long does it exist for? How old are you? You don't look past 30 or 40, max 48 or so but not over 50" Reno said, as he was being nice, but also being serious, as he hoped that the guy knew that, but believed that he did. It was rather easy to tell that he was serious, just by the way he said it, among other things. Then again Reno didn't plan on hiding that, nor even tried to hide that from anyone. There was no reason for him, to hide that from anyone.
"Aww, good that you were happy there, and I am sorry to hear that you were brought here from your home, that sucks! And believe me when I say that I can relate. I was pulled here to from where I live, and work. Also I don't exactly live in a house or such, but outside, yet I still know how it feels like being pulled away from where you are used to be, and put in a new place." Reno said, and sighed, as he looked down, then back at him. "And that is good that you want to help others like you, that is very noble thing to do. I am glad that people agreed to help you with your cause. because it is very noble and kind! Which means that their personality is like yours" he added.
"Sounds good, coffee or beer would be nice. If not then just tea would do fine or some juice! Thank you very much" Reno said to him with a smile. After that he looked between the two once more, then after that, he looked at Jake again. "I think you need the bandage, and maybe a doctor should be found, and called to help you out. As it looks like you could use some help" he said to him. Reno wouldn't mind helping out, if needed, but he really did think that he would need a bandage, even if he had no idea how was the guy hurt. He sighed as he then waited for a reply.

Just great… They noticed he was still injury from that battle days before. There was no point in hiding it now. Jake let out a deep sigh, finally giving up. It couldn’t be that bad, could it? He had people that actually gave a crap about him. He wasn’t alone like he thought he was. “I’m fine really! I had worse than this!” He said, waving his arms in front of him. Even the slightest movement still hurt, but he decided to just bear with it for now. The sixteen year old felt a little embarrassed of everything. He should have just stayed in bed until he fully healed. Yet he was too stubborn for that. Once Reno tried to help him walk, the teen couldn’t help but feel a little awkward. Why didn’t they understand he was perfectly fine? He was just a little wounded from the battle with an ogre, nothing he couldn’t handle. Hell, back in his world, this was nothing compared to what his father’s men had to go through with fighting off the Bilkian soldiers.
The sixteen year old simply followed the two older men. He somewhat listened to their conversation. His mind drifting on random thoughts. Jake would surely keep training himself if it came to it. Books would not be enough to teach the kid anything about how to use Aledon’s magic. He needed someone to teach him, but he was too scared to actually tell someone what he was capable of doing. He let out another sigh. What was he going to do? More than anything he wanted to go back home to Umacia. Back to his family and friends, but with the way things were going that was not going to happen anytime soon.
Jake snapped back to reality once he heard his name. “Huh? Uh…. I’m fine. Thanks anyway….” He trailed off once more. Sure, he was pain, but it wasn’t anything really big. He had been through a lot worse. Almost getting killed was not a new thing for him. The sixteen year old dealt with that most of his life. He ignored the blood that seemed to seep through the bandages he currently had on. Maybe that fall from before actually caused some damaged than he first though. He gave a nervous laugh, rubbing his hand against his neck. Today was not his day was it? Hopefully no one noticed his current situation. Maybe he should gave himself more time to heal before actually going out. After all, the battle was only a couple days ago.
