An unnamed leader summons Vlad, the protagonist and commands him to go on a search for the ultimate weapon. Vlad embarks on his quest, and follows several dead ends until he stumbles upon a payphone that transports him to another dimension.
Part Two: The Thatrix
Vlad is materialized in the Thatrix, sporting a sharp black suit, an earpiece, and two semi-automatic pistols. He recieves orders from his superior via his earpiece to go check out a room on the above floor. In the room is Trio, the chosen one! He plays the euphonium and runs a bootleg cat buisness. Vlad apprehends him and takes him to interrogation, which yeilds nothing except Trio taking both the blue pill and the red pill. And the yellow green spotted pill. Trio escapes. Eventually, Vlad catches up to him and they have a showdown, first with guns, but progressing to nothing but their prodigous martial arts skills. After a lengthy speech about how Trio is nothing but a janitor for Vlad. Trio gets angry, and kicks Vlad in the gonads, causing his head to explode, ejecting him from the Thatrix into another dimension, Central earth!
Part Three: Central Earth

He tries it on, and then gives it back to the henchman to store in a safe place. The henchman gives it away to a random wizard who he meets. The wizard (Randolph the Gay (the grey)) Finds Mojo the hobbit, and they go on a quest to destroy the ring in a big pit of lava.

After a upbeat questing montage, Randolph dissapears and Mojo and Orlando find themselves under fire from the deadly sniper rifle of the Nazgul. They are saved by nobeard the dwarf. The three set off again to find a big pit of lava. Meanwhile, Randolph is at the great water tower of Orthank, to seek help from Saruman the off white.

Saruman gets kicked off the tower and explodes, and Randolph returns to help Mojo and Orlando (and nobeard), who are getting mauled by the Ralbog. Nobeard dies, and Mojo and Orlando excape unscathed except for haircuts and manicures. And disembowlment, but they get put back together by the Ralbog, for some reason.
