Yeah. Another story about Big. And what of it?
A legend
There is a legend, though some call it a myth, that very few people know about and even fewer believe in. This legend, or myth, whichever you prefer to call it, has not been told too often; so much of the original story has been forgotten. But as I first heard it, it went thusly:
There is a being that is said to exist in all worlds and in all timelines simultaneously. This being comes to rescue those who are in need and smites those that are impure in their deeds. When his job is done he returns to his home, a valley known as The Windy Flower Garden; a valley filled with flowers and a gentle breeze. The breeze tosses the flower petals into the air and gently ruffles the placid lakes, causing the water lilies to wave slightly on their stalks imbedded in the water. The croaking of the frogs, the singing of the birds; these are almost the only sounds to be heard in this special paradise. The few who have heard the legend hope to go there someday to spend the rest of their days in peace and quiet.
This being appears a large purple feline known simply as Big the Cat. To most people he seems to be nothing more than useless and stupid. But those who know the legend know that he’s more than he seems. His great strength makes sure that he can overcome obstacles; to either save someone or punish someone. Gentle by nature, terrible in his wrath, yet overall easy-going . Like a massive violet Buddha he watches over the world and does what he can when he can.
Those who he has rescued are usually to awed and thankful to speak to most about what had happened. Those who he had punished either end up dead or in mental institutes when they try to convince people that they were beaten up by a huge purple cat. So it is because few people speak about their encounters with Big, or are able to, is the reason why word of him and what he does is not more widely known. Instead people maintain the view of him as a slow, stupid, pointless character. And that is not a view that is wise to assume. To assume this, and certain other views, means that he will not help you if you truly need his help.
For there is another legend that is also partially known to some. This legend is interwoven with yet another legend. The legend is that Big is among a group of fighters that combat an evil that runs rampant in the world. An evil known simply as Tails Doll. Were I to tell you the Tails Doll legend that all this is interwoven with, then we’d be sitting here from now until next spring. For that legend is a tale that stretches back far and is full of misery and blood-shed.
But do not fret; Big and the other fighters try to combat him. Big shall help to protect us all. And perhaps one day we shall find our way to that special paradise and can live happily.
