Today's #flashfiction Generally Speaking

“It's hammer time!”
Bob the Builder* #quote

Tomorrow I'll be going to the convention my club is hosting, on Saturday to just enjoy myself and familiarize myself with where they placed everything(due to my sickness I don't really know where they put everything) and also to hang out with at first my parents in the early part of the day(they are interested in seeing the thing) and later my friend Jessica. Sunday, the second day of the convention, is when I plan to spend my time volunteering.

Generally Speaking

          The world of wizards enjoyed conquering other worlds. One after the other parallel universes fell. When other Earth's encountered magic they fell. However one Earth managed to prove stubborn. An Earth that advanced in technology. Most Earth's didn't even reach the telephone. And a telephone conversation between two generals now took place on that advanced Earth.
         “We could speak with magic,” said Fayal, the general of magic. He hated awkwardly holding phones up to head.
          Danson, the an American replied, “I don't trust your magical communication. We won't be negotiating your surrender over magic.”
          Fayal found his words offensive. The world of wizards never lost. Magic Earth never lost. Magic allowed him to learn languages so he'd learned this Earth's languages quickly, at least this parallel Earth's versions. Halonic was English here. Very similar but different in several ways.
          “Why would you think that?”
           Danson explained to the wizard, “People here have tried to take over the world. Our own people. They managed to build empires with alliances and conquering. You just attacked everyone. And we're all against you. You even went after the Swiss. You were stupid enough to go right after the Swiss.”
           Fayal laughed, “We've been fighting for a week with little opposition and now you're threatening me? Our wizards are paired with dragons, zombies, goblins, and even more.”
           “You need to surrender because now we've been giving orders to deploy by the politicians. You see that's the thing with people. When we have one common enemy we unite. To not understand this you must have fought some very weak people in the past. Or at least people without long distance communication.”

            Fayal didn't back down and World War III ended with a swift powerful strike from all the nations in the world against the hordes of the armies of magic. Before the world of wizards could prepare for an opponent of such power they were defeated. As Fayal did a final retreat he remembered all the weak Earth's he conquered, places with weak technology and a lack of unity. His hubris made him assume all places would fall as easily. The world of wizards never attacked another Earth fearing losing another war and possibly being conquered in return.
