TBOAH TIMELINE
Everyone was in a state of panic after the declaration of war from the Indomitable Alliance was podcasted throughout the whole continent. The crown prince, Alberu Crossman has decided to have an emergency meeting about the upcoming war with the plaza terror attack hero, Choi Han walking behind him. Rosalyn, the former princess and Lock, the pure breed Blue Wolf King can also be seen to be following behind the two.
But just as they were about to enter the conference room, an unknown source of light surrounded them without warning, pulling them into a portal that brought them to an unknown place.
Without any information about the place, Choi Han took out his sword from the scabbard, protecting the crown prince from any potential harm. Rosalyn had orbs of red mana balls surrounding them and Lock transformed into his berserk form.
While observing their surroundings, more people can be seen to appear out of nowhere continuously. This continued until a brown red hair masked man joined into the chaos.
Everyone had their guards up due to not knowing everyone in the place nor were they willing to put their guard down either after receiving the unexpected declaration of war, not knowing who was your ally or enemy.
Just as a miniature war was about to break out, a door that they hadn't notice before was opened and a teen walked in, not caring about the glares she was receiving.
Suddenly, with a flick of a pen she was holding, the girl had appeared in the middle of the crowd as if she was not worried about being attacked (nah she definitely was).
"Welcome to my imaginative realm where all the impossibles are possible!" The teen said with a smile filled with joy, bowing towards her audience that she kidnapped.
"Now...." Unfortunately before she could continue, countless people started aiming attacks at her, realizing that the mysterious girl was responsible for this situation. But before their attacks touched the teen, the girl flicked her pen again, making everyone who was near bounce back from an unknown force.
As they tried to stand back up, chains held them down, making them unable to move nor talk.
"Now before you dirty insects try to attack me again. Let's hear what I have to say first, no ?" Olive smiled angrily while her eyes glowed brightly in the colour of indigo, instilling fear in some of them, dragons are the exception of course.
"Like I said before, this is a place where all the impossible happens. You are all here to meet and react to another timeline of your world where the fate of that timeline is different from yours," She explains while flicking her pen to separate the room into 5 compartments and adding furniture to all the compartments.
"You guys have no choice but to obey and react. Who knows, the information might be useful for you. And you guys are curious who wins or loses in the war, no ?" She smirked at the despair that's seeping out from the characters who were worried about the upcoming war.
"As much as I love chaos, I don't want my realm to become a ruined battlefield. Therefore, I will be separating you into two compartments to avoid fights between the good and bad side," And with another flick of her pen, the characters were separated into two compartments.
"I will be explaining the rest later when I bring the other timeline here. But for now, I will reduce all your strengths and powers to a certain level as a precaution. Please enjoy the short video on the big black screen behind me. Do not attempt to attack it but it's impossible too since you're separated by the wall. But know that you'll be punished either way for attempting," Olive shrugged, making the necessary changes on the characters.
"Goodbye for now~" She exited through the door, ignoring the fight that was about to break out soon between the rumoured trash of the Henituse territory and the well-known hero.
'I'll just punish them later for not listening. Now, time to see TCF Cale~' The girl could be seen humming a happy tune in the empty hallway.

TCF TIMELINE
"You're a hunter, aren't you ?" Cale smirked as he stared at the impostor who was kneeling on the ground.
"I knew you were smart, Cale Henituse," An unknown being that appeared out of nowhere said. The being took out a pen and flicked it, making the hunter disappear into thin air.
"Now, I bring no harm to anyone here. I just want to bring you all to my realm to react to something that is beneficial to you. So, I would really appreciate it if this dagger is not aimed at me," Olive explained with small smile, pointing towards the dagger that's barely touching her throat.
"And how can we trust that you are not one of our enemies ?" Ron smiled benignly and Cale noticeably shivered.
'This assassin is scary as hell,' Olive sweatdropped.
"Understandable. But at least let me explain ?" Olive flicked her pen to remove the dagger, earning suspicious stares from the vicious heroes.
"The reason I will transport you all to my realm is to react to your timeline where the good side won. This trip is to help your parallel selves to face the upcoming war. Why if you are curious ? Because they didn't have a certain someone to help them. And I would appreciate it if you guys are willing to help them," The teen explained while looking at everyone in the room.
"And what's in it for us if we do agree ?" Cale Henituse asked.
"I knew you would ask that. Like you, I like making deals. So Cale Henituse, as the God Of Imagination, I propose to help you with the hunter problem and ensure that you will get your slacker life quicker," Olive could see that the red haired had his eyes brightened at the term 'slacker life'.
"Is the God Of Death responsible for this ?" Cale's face returned its original stoic state, earning a pout from the God.
"In a way, yes. He is quite at fault for everything that involves you, esteemed sir," Olive would do this everyday just to see Cale being annoyed. But she had to focus on what's on hand before anything else.
"Now that's out of the way, would you-"
"But how can we know that you aren't tricking us and transport us to our enemies ?" Choi Han was definitely suspicious of the unknown girl, especially because she was wearing modern clothes, something that definitely didn't exist in a fantasy world like this.
*chuckle sounds*
Olive was chuckling at Choi Han's actions, finding that it was hilarious that he would do this. Of course, it wasn't that the question was funny but because of how Choi Han was hiding Cale behind him.
"Don't worry, Choi Han. I know how protective you are about our Young Master Silver Shield. So I will show our esteemed hero a glimpse of the place. Please do not mind how chaotic the room might be, for I haven't gotten the chance to discipline them yet," Olive smiled brightly when Cale frowned at the nickname.
"So, do you agree to let Cale decide for you guys ?" Olive asked, glancing at everyone and observing their facial expressions. Within her expectations, everyone nodded without hesitation.
"Great, now Cale please come closer to me so that it would be easier to show you." Cale walked towards the God, to which the God put both of her hands in front of the man, making it obvious that the man had to touch her palms to see the realm. Just when Cale touched her hands, he heard something unexpected.
[Cale Henituse. You should be familiar with "The Birth Of A Hero" right ?]
Cale stared at Olive with a shocked expression. He was definitely not liking how she has what Raon would call a scammer smile on her face right now.
[Yes, you are right. I'm sure that Kim Rok Soo, the former Cale Henituse has told you that the war lasted for 20 years. But you managed to achieve that in 2 years, a great accomplishment I would say,] The god smiled proudly.
[You will be reacting with them. And I hope that you can change the fate of their world. As much as I don't like that timeline, it's troublesome to deal with a ruined world. Now enough with the chitchat. I'll show you the realm.] And with that, Cale nodded in understanding.
When he was shown the room, shock was an understatement. The room was so chaotic. TBOAH Cale could be seen fighting with TBOAH Choi Han whereas the other counterparts of his allies were attacking an invisible wall. On the other hand, white star and his subordinates were just chilling on the sofas or couches while enjoying the food that was provided.
[Chaotic, I know. I did reduce their strengths and warn them about rule breaking will result to punishment. But, it seems like they won't listen~] Cale was shivering at the tone Olive used by the end of the sentence. He swore to never anger the god and would definitely warn his family to never break the rules.
"Ok, now that Cale has seen the room. I hope I can hear your answer. Don't worry, the place you will stay at would be free from the mess. I can't treat my guests badly, can I ?" Olive sighed as if she wasn't the one who said that she would punish the TBOAH characters.
"Well, I agree," Cale said after thinking for a while and knowing that he should help his family's counterparts even though they do not have the same chemistry in the other world.
"Great ! Wonderful ! I'll teleport you guys in 10 minutes and make an announcement to the whole continent. Don't worry about any war because time will be stopped. Don't ask how because as long one has imagination anything can happen," And like that, Olive disappeared happily.
And that leaves 10 minutes for them to get ready for any possible situation that might happen.
______________________________
In the realm
Just like how Cale described the place, everything was a mess. The good side's furnitures were all broken and fights could be seen going on. Unexpectedly, the bad side's were peaceful as they were just enjoying how the good side was self-destructing. No one seemed to care who was on the good or bad side as they were just dealing with their personal stuff, not caring at all about the upcoming war they would have to face as soon as they go back.
"I SAID NO VIOLENCE AND YOU GUYS DARE TO BREAK MY FURNITURE ?!" Olive yelled loudly and peace finally came back as everyone stopped what they were doing. The god was releasing her aura, anger filling her insides as she saw how her precious furniture was turned into fine dust by the "heroes".
"Have you forgotten that I am the ruler in this place ?! I brought you here to help your stupid pitiful world and this is how you repay me ? Have you forgotten that punishment will be brought upon those who break the rules, you stupid baboons !" Olive snickered at herself for expecting much from these vengeful people.
"Well I guess I am at fault for leaving you guys without a clear explanation," Olive sighed at the damage done. She had no choice but to trap the heroes with chains again to prevent further destruction of her precious realm.
"I'll leave again to really bring the TCF people here so stop moving or I'll skin you alive," Olive fixed her furniture again before leaving to see her beloved (one sided sadly) Cale again.

Back to the TCF Timeline
"Are you guys ready ?" Olive asked while smiling at Cale to which he nodded. After the god left, the first thing he did was to call everyone through the video communication device.
"Now that everyone is ready, I will teleport you guys in

Let's go~"

In the realm
(This is to avoid confusion because I'm confused myself)
TBOAH Choi Han was trapped in chains but he could still see that the empty compartments (C and D) were slowly being filled with people that popped out of nowhere. The difference was that the reactions on each side were opposite for the other timeline. The D side (villains) were noticeably more panicked while the B side (heroes) were calmer, a great contrast towards the TBOAH timeline.
'How are they not freaking out about the war ?' The crown prince,TBOAH Alberu Crossman who was one of the few people who hadn't broken the rules thought while finding his counterpart.
Meanwhile, TCF Cale was just counting the number of his allies, making sure that no one was missing before sitting on the most comfy looking couch. TCF Alberu sighed at Cale lazing on the couch before sitting on the three person sofa beside Cale with Choi Han in the middle and Rosalyn on the left.
Everyone from the B side sat down comfortably while everyone from the D side was clearly agitated as if they were worried about something.
'Now that I noticed it, D side has a lot less people than B side. While our side has less people and the C side has more.....' Alberu was suddenly really thankful for the god helping them, although the God Of Imagination was scary sometimes.
'Does he know that I can read his thoughts ? I would whoop his ass with a chancla for thinking that I'm scary if I could but I would deem to be unprofessional,' Olive pouted at the thought of being lectured by her friends for being childish.
'Has she gone crazy from the broken furniture before ?' Cale raised an eyebrow while petting Raon who was resting on his lap.
"Now that everyone's here. I will explain the rules.
First, no violence. I will punish anyone who disobeys it, be it ally or foe.
Second, you will have breaks after reactions.
Third, time will be stopped in both of your worlds. Don't ask how because imagination can do a lot, ok ?
Fourth, food and furniture are provided as you can see now.
Fifth, don't destroy anything that belongs to me.
For now that is all for the rules. Punishment applies to everyone in this realm, well except me of course," Olive released her breathe after explaining.
"Now, are you curious on what is different in two of your worlds ?" The God Of Imagination smiled mischievously. Cale who could guess what the difference was (as much as he didn't want to admit) was sweating bullets. Alberu stared worriedly at his dongsaeng who was glaring daggers at the god.
"We would like to know if it's possible," TBOAH Alberu raised his voice to ask so that the god could hear him.
"Very well then. I've been craving some chaos and this would be perfect," Olive smiled playfully while glancing at Cale.
"The difference between the two worlds is just one man. One man was enough to change the fate of a ruined world into a hopeful one," Those who smart from the TBOAH side figured out what the god meant by that and were despairing over the fact that they would be defeated.
"And the man who changed fate is...."
*drumroll and suspenseful music*
"The one and only...."
"The suspense is killing me," Bud mumbled, earning a smack from Glenn.
"Cale Henituse"
"WHAT ?!" Shouts from the TBOAH timeline could be heard, no one believed that the trash could change the fate of the world.
"Or should I say formerly known as Kim Rok Soo ?"
Now, the TCF side were the ones who were surprised.
