《Lion King 1 1/2 (Timon X Y/N)》Chapter 7: Looking Beyond What They See
Advertisement
Timon was just walking along when he felt someone tackle him to the ground. He struggled a bit against them until he saw who it was.
"Y/N?" Timon questioned.
"Surprise," Y/N smirked.
"You trying to give me a heart attack or something?" he asked.
"Well, I would apologize, but you left without including me on your quest. First off, it could be dangerous and I'm not losing my best friend. Second, as much as I love your mom, I'm not staying there in a place I don't like with other meerkats who I don't get along with," she explained, getting up at the end.
"Well, that explains why you're here," Timon commented then added as she helped him up, "But for the record, I knew if Ma told you, you would do this."
"So you were expecting me," Y/N guessed.
"I didn't expect you tackling me, but technically yes, I did," he pointed out.
"Fair enough. So let's get going," she suggested.
They then headed out as it started to get later in the day.
"And so with high spirits, Y/N and I boldly ventured off where no meerkat had dared to go before. We put our past behind us-ha! And never looked back," Timon said as the movie continued.
It was then at night when Timon and Y/N started missing Ma, so they ended up crying and hugging.
"Mommy! Mommy!" Timon called, bawled his eyes out, then asked as they went to their knees, "What are we doing?"
"Which way should we go?" Y/N added.
"That depends on what you think," a monkey, Rafiki, told them from above them.
They jumped back when the movie paused.
"How convenient. Enter omniscient monkey, right on cue," Timon commented.

"Well, you know what they say," Pumbaa started.
"When the student is ready, the teacher appears?" Y/N guessed.
"Exactly," Pumbaa answered, high-fiving her.
"That's it. No more fortune cookies for either of you," Timon decided.
"No fair," Y/N remarked before he played the movie.
"Hey, where'd you come from?" Timon asked.
Rafiki laughed then wondered, "Oh, the better question is, where are you two going?"
"Oh, someplace wonderful, mister, where..." Timon began.
"You didn't happen to catch the song he sang a few minutes ago, did you?" Y/N asked.
"I didn't have the pleasure," Rafiki answered.
"To recap, we want to live in some beautiful place outside, a carefree place where we don't have to hide or worry," Timon explained.
"Oh yeah. That sounds good," Y/N agreed.
"Whoo! Hoo hoo hoo!" Rafiki laughed as he joined them then said as he leaned against his stick, "Life without worry. You seek hakuna matata."
"Harpoon a tomato?" Timon asked.
Y/N giggled then told him, "I think he said 'hakuna matata'."
"Correct. It means 'No worries'," Rafiki replied.
"Perfect. Mind taking that stick of yours and drawing us a map, bub?" Timon requested, got hit on the head with the stick, then exclaimed, "Ow! Hey!"
"You okay?" Y/N asked.
"Yeah," Timon nodded as he rubbed his head.
"To find it, you must look beyond what you see," Rafiki whispered in a meditating pose.
"What the heck is that supposed to mean?" Timon asked until he was turned around.
"It means look beyond what you see," Rafiki repeated.
"Beyond what we see. Ha. Get a load of the monkey getting all existential on us," Timon chuckled.
"Well, let's try it. What have we got to lose?" Y/N pointed out.

"Alright," Timon sighed then said as soft music played, "Beyond what we see."
They looked to see a frog, resting on a rock in the middle of a puddle.
"Hmm. Beyond what we see," Y/N repeated as the music got louder.
They then looked over to see a sharpened tree stump.
"Beyond what we see," Timon did the same as the music was louder.
They then looked further to see a full grown tree.
"It's kind of hard to think with all this music," Y/N said.
"Little bit," Timon agreed, the music stopping.
"Beyond...what we see," Y/N stated.
They then saw Pride Rock as a chorus vocalized.
"Oh, wait a second," Timon exclaimed, getting excited.
Vocalization.
"It's coming to us," Timon replied.
Vocalization.
"I'm loving this!" Y/N cheered, jumping up and down.
Vocalization.
"It's either that slug I ate or I'm having an epiphany!" Timon declared.
Vocalization with a key change.
"We're going to the big pointy rock!" Timon declared then asked as they turned to face Rafiki, "Right?"
But he was gone.
"What the--?" Y/N questioned.
"Who was that strange monkey?" Timon wondered.
"Beats me," she shrugged.
"Ah, well. Dream home, here we come," he stated and they were off again.

The Depths of Magic
Synopsis It's the year 2052 and the release of the new next-generation full-dive VRMMO game called The Depths of Magic is hitting the world by storm. The game's technology will surpass all other games before it and shock the masses. Hector who goes by the name Locke inside the game is an experienced player of the genre. He is looking to continue his goal of enjoying gaming as well as the competition that goes along with competing for the top ranking spots. Novel Summary The Depths of Magic is a LitRPG novel focused on a Fantasy VRMMO setting. This is not a harem novel. In-Game systems The Depths of Magic features state-of-the-art technology never before seen in Hector's world. The key system the novel will bring up often is the Second Brain. The Second Brain system is more like a guidance AI for the players in the game that acts as if you had a second brain assisting your every action. How much guidance this AI will give is based on its experience or mastery skills a player will receive in the game. The guidance is seamless to a point where a player won't even realize they are being assisted, it's will feel like what they are doing is something they could always do. However, once they leave the game it will become quite apparent that they were receiving heavy guidance. The purpose of this system in a writing sense is to explain why a player can realistically become more powerful, more agile, or more skilled than they would otherwise be able to as a human. To give an example if someone could move faster than a bullet, how would a normal human brain be able to perceive and control this movement properly. Or how could a player who has never held a sword before become as experienced as someone who has trained with the sword all their lives? The magic system will be another focus of this novel. I don't want to spoil anything here but it should be an interesting one. The hope is that the system I have made will spark discussion between the readers on what combinations will do what. I already have most of it, but it will be fun to read as the author. Side notes My general focus for this novel is to attempt to make the in-game systems make sense. To give a vague example I have read a lot of novels of this genre and some have the habit of just creating such powerful items that it just breaks the system, and somehow the MC keeps finding challenging situations even with those items. What tends to happen when I read a novel like this I just ignore the stats of the items he is getting because the numbers don't even matter anymore. Release schedule: The chapter release schedule due to real-life complications is to release as I write them. Patreon setup: 1 chapter early release/discord access. Free content up to the current chapter includes an excel sheet that contains Locke's current stats at the end of the chapter. This is extra information for those that are interested.
