Tanya(#228PSenAC)

	Before you is a female Kryn, with black fur over the central
part of her body. It remains black halfway past her elbows, down to her
knees, and on the upper portion of her face; the remaining fur is all
white, little jags almost like tiger stripes blurring the change from
black to white. Her shoulder-length hair is also black except for a
large shock of white hair in the front, hanging down over her forehead.
She wears a somewhat tight, purple T-shirt with Sabrina on it, along
with a pair of blue jeans--both articles of clothing serving to
highlight her slim, curved form--and a pair of green canvas sneakers on
her feet.

Tanya just laid her eyes on you.

Eastview Apartments Courtyard(#125RntJ)

	You're standing in the parking lot/courtyard of the Eastview
apartment complex. It looks to be an old motel converted into long-term
living spaces. The building is shaped in a U around the parking
lot/courtyard, with the ends of the legs of the U facing the street. The
old motel offices have been converted into a laundromat, and the motel
rooms are of course apartments now, with the first floor accessible from
the parking lot, and the second floor from a balcony that wraps around
the inner edge of the building.

Tanya comes rushing out of Apartment 120, hands over her head protecting
herself while someone inside is screaming and throwing things at her.

Observer I just laid its eyes on you.

Observer I blinkies.

Tanya says, "But.. but.. it's MY place! Who ARE you?!"

The door gets slammed in her face.

Observer I says, "... uh..."

Observer I scratches his top.

Tanya looks around.

Tanya sees the robot and walks over with a confused look on her face.

Tanya says, "Uhm.. excuse me.. this IS Atlanta, isn't it?"

Observer I says, "... Last time I checked."

Observer I says, "It might have suddenly turned into something else
while I wasn't looking."

Tanya says, "I get that feeling too.."

Tanya says, "Earth? 1999?"

Observer I says, "I'm pretty sure on that one, too."

Observer I just laid its eyes on you.

Observer I says, "Umm... You _are_ aware that you're non-human, right?"

Tanya says, "Well, -yeah-.. I'm a Kryn. From the planet Aebra? You must've
heard of us.. our crown prince Stripe lives here with his wife?"

Observer I says, "..."

Observer I says, "Hang on."

Observer I says, "... Okay, yeah, there are a few mentions of you on the
net if you look in the right place..."

Observer I says, "A former Lost Civilzation, it seems."

Tanya says, "Thing is.."

Tanya says, "And this is the damnedest thing.."

Observer I says, "Yes?"

Tanya points to 120.

Tanya says, "*I'm* supposed to be living *there*. But someone else is in my
place."

Tanya says, "And none of my stuff is there."

Observer I says, "Huh... What's your name?"

Tanya says, "Tanya'Ga.. I used to be a high priestess in El Dorado, before
we had to move it back to our homeworld to save it from invaders. I
voluntarily stayed behind, resigned my title, and stayed here to help
keep good relations with the Earthers."

Observer I says, "*long ass pause* No you didn't."

Tanya huhs?

Tanya says, "What do you mean?"

Observer I says, "You tried to kill Stryyp'Gia's wife so you could marry
him and be queen or whatever the title was, got caught, turned tiny,
your powers take away, And then you popped back up later with a golem
made from, like, the soul of a male werecheetah or something, used some
post-hypnotic commands on your former asisstant to get her to teleport
you away, and that's the last infor I have on you."

Tanya says, "WHAT?"

Tanya says, "Th.. that's not true! I wouldn't DO such a thing!"

Pinky comes out of Apartment 116.

Pinky has arrived.

Observer I says, "Ah! Pinky! Here, you tell Tanya what she did."

Tanya looks upset and confused.

Tanya says, "Danielle!"

Pinky huhs as she exits her apartament.

Tanya steps forward with a bit of relief.

Pinky just laid her eyes on you.

Pinky says, "YOU!"

Tanya says, "What.. what?"

Pinky says, "You're the creep that tried to break up my best friends
wedding!"

Tanya shakes her head violently. "Why are you saying this? It's not true!"

Pinky says, "You're a bit taller but it's you!"

Observer I says, "Um... She's telling the truth."

Observer I says, "Which, of cours, means something odd is going on."

Tanya says, "Tell me about it!!"

Pinky says, "I'm going to tell Britanny you are here and she's gonna
kick your ...huh?"

Observer I nods. "She's not using any magic, and she displays no
biological signs of lying. And those are damn near impossible to
suppress."

Observer I says, "Whee! Strangeness!"

Tanya says, "Is Britanny around, Dani? I need to talk to her!"

Observer I says, "Um... Tanya, why don't you tell Pinky your memories of
the events."

Tanya gulps and nods.

Pinky says, "But..arn't you Tanya?! The evil Beaatch that plaged Brit
and Stripe so much?"

Tanya says, "El Dorado was returned to Aebra to fight the--NO!"

Tanya says, "Why would I do such a thing?!"

Observer I says, "One at a time."

Observer I says, "Tanya, you first."

Pinky shuts up.

Tanya says, "We had to send our cityship back to fight off invaders..
Prince 'Gia wanted someone to stay back and maintain relations with the
Earthers, so I volunteered.. it meant giving up my priestess position,
but in order to keep up good relations with Earth.. well, it was a good
cause."

Observer I says, "And that seems to be about it."

Pinky says, "But..Brittany told me you were all shrunk..and with the
wovles.."

Pinky says, "And I was *AT* the wedding! I saw you!"

Pinky just laid her eyes on you.

Observer I says, "Maybe we should go talk to Viper about this."

Tanya says, "I was at the wedding.. but I was NOT 'shrunk'.."

Tanya says, "Who is this 'Viper'?"

Observer I says, "My boss."

Tanya ohs..

Pinky says, "So..you are trying to tell me you DIDN'T create a golem to
wreck my best friends wedding? And then teleport yourself away."

Viper heads out of Apartment 117.

Viper has arrived.

Estian has arrived.

Estian fades into view and comes IC.

Viper strides out and glares down at O1. "What?"

Tanya says, "No! I was at the wedding.. I took care of the children! I had
the most fun I've had in ages.."

Observer I points at Tanya. "This person has memories that don't match
the rest of the world, apparently.

Viper looks at Tanya.

Viper says, "Have you run into any psionics lately?"

Tanya says, "I don't think so.."

Viper says, "They'd probably erase your memories of them anyway."

Viper hms.

Observer I says, "How'd you end up in that apartment, anyway?"

Tanya says, "All I know is this.."

Tanya says, "I teleported myself there."

Observer I says, "I see."

Observer I says, "Where were you before that?"

Tanya says, "I was in there--doing my thing, having a nice, normal day..
when I blinked.. and woke up inside some dark, damp cave in the middle
of nowhere. I have NO idea where it is.. though I think I can find it
again with my magic if I try. So I decided to send myself home.. and I
did.. but it appears like it's not my home any more."

Viper nods.

Pinky is GLARING at Tanya,"I say she's lying."

Viper says, "I think we should have a look at this cave."

Observer I says, "And I say she's not."

Viper says, "O1 should know."

Viper says, "There's a possibility she came from an alternate dimension
where events happened that way."

Tanya says, "They DID happen that way!"

Observer I says, "Not according to everybody else involved with them
around here."

Viper says, "And you can't always trust your memories. Even if a nasty
telepath _wasn't_ involved."

Tanya frowns.

Tanya says, "I know what I know."

Viper says, "That's nice. Now, can you teleport us to this cave you woke
up in, or what?"

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 5 minutes."

Tanya says, "I need time to find it. I'm not certain where it is."

Viper nods.

Tanya says, "I think I have it.."

Tanya, eyes closed, nods. "Yes, it looks familiar to my mind's eye.."

Pinky says, "Can we trust you to take us to some place that isn't a
trap?"

Viper says, "I doubt anything she could do could kill me. And I can
resseruct the rest of you."

Pinky says, "oh, that's okay then."

Tanya says, "Who all is coming?"

Tanya looks around.

Viper says, "Me."

Estian nods

Observer I says, "I'll be coming along after Viper determins it's not a
trap."

Pinky says, "I am."

Tanya nods.

Tanya says, "I am bound by rules to ask, then, have any of you travelled by
smoke magic before? Does anyone have a condition that would be set off
by the smoke?"

Viper says, "No and no."

Pinky says, "Not that I know of."

Estian doesnt think so

Tanya says, "All right, then.. prepare yourselves.."

The group is enveloped in a puff of smoke.

Estian has left.

Viper has left.

Pinky has left.

Cave(#1935en)

	This appears to be a well-used cavern, spacious, with twisting
tunnels this way and that. There are several workbenches crafted out of
stone, as if the rock was naturally formed that way.. or perhaps
magically altered. Looks like several workshops comprise most of the
space, with a bedroom cavern off one end, with, of all things, a large,
soft, double bed smack in the middle of it. Candles and torches burn
everywhere, providing light where perpetual light spells can't reach.
Many magical items are strewn about.

Estian

Tanya looks around. "Y.. yes.. this is the place.. but I am not familiar
with it other than it's where I found myself."

Viper looks around and casts a minor spell.

Viper blinks out and then back in, carrying O1.

Viper takes Observer I.

Observer I has arrived.

Observer I looks around.

Tanya says, "What do you suppose this place is?"

Viper says, "I'd guess a workshop."

Observer I wanders around.

Observer I shoves all the magic items in a corner.

Estian looks around, afraid to touch anything

Observer I scans around for dimensional disturbances.

Pinky says, "It looks like somebody lives here too."

Pinky says, "Gotta bed and other stuff."

Pinky says, "A bed built for two no less."

Observer I scans throurghouly.

Tanya says, "I didn't touch anything when I got here.. but.."

Tanya says, "All these items.. all these instructional sheets.. *gestures
to part of what's just been shoved into a corner*.. is stuff I'd use in
researching new smoke-spells."

Estian says, "Could they have been yours?"

Observer I says, "Well, there's vauge traces of dimensional gateways,
but they could be from certain types of teleportation spells, as opposed
to actual dimensional travel."

Pinky says, "If..and this is a BIG if she's not ..gah..OUR Tanya..could
our Tanya have switched with her? In order to get HER Stripe?"

Viper says, "Well, great."

Tanya looks at the werecreature. "I have never seen this place before
today. They might belong to someone else involved in smoke magic, but
they are NOT mine."

Viper says, "..."

Viper says, "That's... quite possible."

Observer I says, "..."

Tanya says, "'Her' Stripe? What do you mean?"

Observer I says, "When did you say you woke up here?"

Tanya says, "Earlier today.. long enough for me to get my bearings, send
myself to my apartment, and get chased out. You know the rest."

Pinky says, "YOUR apartment?"

Observer I says, "Do you have any idea how long ago that was? Time-wise?
This is important."

Tanya says, "Yes! I live in apartment 120 in the block you met me in."

Tanya says, "It was.. perhaps.. an hour ago, no longer. Perhaps less."

Observer I nods and starts scanning for disturbances that look about an
hour old.

Observer I says, "Ahaha. There's the ones we used to get here, and...
one other one."

Tanya says, "Oh?"

Observer I says, "I'm going to try and trace it now."

Observer I sits down and tries to trace it.

Observer I says, "This... is gonna take a while."

Observer I says, "Boss, could you cast a preservative spell so this
doesn't fade?"

Viper waves a hand vaugely, doing so.

Pinky says, "Isn't there some way you can tell if she IS from other
dimision?"

Viper says, "Not until we can find, get to, and do a pattern-scan on the
other dimension."

Viper says, "Which is probably gonna take a few days."

Tanya ohhhs..

Tanya says, "If I can help.."

Tanya shrugs.

Pinky says, "Can you just see if she doesn't fit in this one?"

Viper says, "Actually... yes."

Tanya says, "Yes to who?"

Tanya looks back and forth between Viper and Pinky.

Viper says, "See if you fit."

Observer I says, "I don't really think you can help me much..."

Viper says, "Well, we could take you back to my lab and see if you're a
dimensional native."

Tanya says, "I see.."

Tanya says, "What about getting me back? I'm not sure I would want to stay
where people think I'm trying to kill my friend and take her husband."

Observer I says, "I'm sure if we explained what was going on, we could
convince them."

Viper says, "We'd need to find the coordinates of hte other dimension
first for that."

Viper says, "Which O1 is working on."

Viper says, "Shall we go?"

Tanya okays.

Tanya says, "All right.."

Viper nods.

Pinky says, "I want to go too."

Viper teleports us all to his lab.

Viper has left.

Observer I has left.

Pinky has arrived.

Estian has arrived.

Viper points at a chair. "Sit in that, please."

Tanya sits down, pulling at the legs of her jeans a little.

Viper hands Tanya some contact electrodes on wires connected to a
computer. "Put these on where the diagram on the wall to your right says
too."

Tanya looks over at the diagram and then looks at herself, tentatively
reaching around to do it.

Tanya says, "Danielle?"

Viper, meanwhile, taps rapidly on the keyboard.

Pinky says, "Yess?"

Tanya says, "I know you as a good friend.. any friend of Brit's is a friend
of mine.. I would never do anything to harm anyone.. you have to believe
me."

Viper says, "Are you done?"

Pinky says, "I'm going to withhold commenting till Viper is done."

Tanya stops and sits still. "Sorry. Go ahead."

Viper nods and runs the program.

Viper says, "She's not native to this diemnsion."

Pinky says, "And there is NO way to fake that?"

Viper says, "You can take them off now."

Tanya says, "I'm not?"

Tanya starts removing electrodes.

Viper says, "Well, okay, she could have gotten a god to do it, but
that's way, way down on the realm of possibilities."

Pinky says, "Right."

Tanya says, "Believe me.. why would I want to come here.. er, no offense of
course.. but.. when have you ever heard of anyone wanting to come to a
place where they're hated?"

Viper says, "Yes."

Viper says, "I've done it many times."

Pinky says, "I guess you evil twin wanted to go to aplace where she
wasn't."

Viper says, "Probably."

Viper mutters to himself, "Of course, the places usually weren't there
anymore when I _left_..."

Pinky says, "Ohmigawd!"

Tanya gets what Dani means and gasps. "You don't think.."

Pinky says, "Think about it!"

Pinky says, "Nobody would except the GOOD Tanya to try and kill Brittany!"

Tanya says, "oh no.."

Viper says, "Perfectly possible."

Tanya groans.

Tanya says, "And.. it'll take days to get to her.. er, me.. and she
could've done it by then?"

Pinky says, "She could ahve done it by now!"

Tanya whimpers.

Tanya says, "Don't say that.."

Tanya says hopefully, "I was pretty dazed when I got here.."

Tanya says, "Or at least when I presume I got here. So maybe she was
too, in my world.."

Viper says, "Of course, it's also possible Britanny spontaneously turned
into a pile small purple siamese fighitng fish, but you're not worrying
aobut _that_, are you?"

Tanya blinks and stares. "Huh?"

Viper says, "Quantum tunneling."

Tanya says, "Oh.. more science.."

Viper stares off into space. "O1 is going to be an estimated 6 hours or
so."

Tanya ohs...

Tanya says, "So what now?"

Pinky says, "So..what can we do in the meantime!? We have to do
something!"

Viper shrugs. "Go watch about 3 average-length movies?"

Tanya says, "Do you really think I can survive here, I won't get lynched?"

Viper says, "If you define "here" as "inside the complex", definetely."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 5 minutes."

Tanya ohs again..

Tanya says, "I wish I could see Britanny.. make sure she's still all
right.."

Pinky says, "Er..I wouldn't go near OUR Britanny."

Tanya looks disappointed. "Okay.."

Pinky says, "She'd probably try to disembowle you.."

Tanya winces.

Tanya says, "Is she.. er.. am I REALLY that bad here?"

Viper says, "Dunno. Never seen you before."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 60 seconds."

Pinky says, "Well..you tried to kill Britanny at least once..to take
over El Darado as Stripes bride."

Pinky says, "And one time you stoled the were wolves baby I hear."

Tanya says, "Whose baby?"

Estian has disconnected.

Pinky says, "Jetta and Thabian's."

Tanya says, "Never heard of them."

Pinky says, "Were-wolves?"

Tanya says, "The race that slaughtered Britanny's clan?"

Pinky says, "Yeah.."

Tanya says, "I thought they all went to Scotland to die off, after their
leader betrayed them.."

Pinky says, "Well here there was one that can stil make babies. Jetta
his daugther."

Pinky says, "She was at the wedding as a matter of fact. Her kids are
SOOOO KYUUTE!"

Tanya nods.. "I'm sure they are..

Tanya says, "Speaking of kids.. what of Tifanny and Ra'Gia?"

Viper says, "Who?"

Pinky says, "What he said."

Tanya says, "Tif and Raj.. Brit and Stripe's children.. they'll be one..
and thr.. why are you looking at me like that.."

Pinky says, "Um...they dont' have kids."

Pinky says, "In fact..there were only married a few months ago."

Tanya just stares dumbly.

Tanya says, "Yes, but.."

Tanya says, "Oh never mind."

Tanya says, "By the time I understand I'll be home again. ... i hope"

Pinky says, "I just hope that she hasn't done too much damage there..."

Tanya says, "You and me both."

Tanya's stomach rumbles.

Tanya says, "uh.. is there anyplace I could get something to eat, please?"

Pinky says, "er..Beats me."

Viper says, "Yes, the cafeteria."

Viper hands you a map.

Tanya says, "Thank you.."

Tanya stands up. "Should I come back here after?.."

Viper says, "I'll find you when there's more news."

Tanya okays.

aircraft, and the seats look like they've been plucked from a racecar,
right down to the five-point harnesses.

From outside, Casey Center(#1416RntJ)

From outside, 

Casey Center is a lush, green business district made for ease of use and
consolidation of services by the city of Atlanta.

The entire Drive is made up of large buildings each decorated in it’s
own unique fashion, so much so that each building stands out from the
others with ease. Fresh vegetation is all around, surrounding each
building like a warm sweater. Tree’s, bushes, shrubs, even small rivers
and rock gardens are everywhere. Sidewalks are decorated with intricate
carvings, and helpful rest area’s with abundant overhangs line the
walkways.

In the middle of Casey Center is a large statue that depicts children of
all kinds helping each other hold up the American Flag, that wisps
playfully in the crisp, fresh air.

he wanted to meet you.."

From outside, Viper nods. "Hello."

meet you.. Viper.. Right?"

From outside, Viper says, "Yes."

From outside, Kasey says, "Viper is helping me out with something,
Gina.. and I figured you might be interested to learn of it too.. umm..
but you have to promise you'll remain calm, before I can show you.
Okay?"

From outside, Gina says, "Why is it people ask me to remain calm before
they tell me something that will upset me?"

From outside, Kasey says, "Just.. keep an open mind, okay?"

From outside, Kasey says, "And.. is Britanny home? Or is she out
somewhere?"

From outside, Kasey .oO(Please say she's out..)

From outside, Gina says, "She is out shopping.. Said something about

Tanya comes up slowly to the group, smiling. "Gina.. I'm SO glad to see
a friendly face.."

Viper facepalms.

Gina automatically reaches for her gina-line but it isn't there,
"Fudge!"

Gina mutters to herself, "... show... friendly face.. what is she
doing..."

Kasey says, "Gina.. gina, it's not who you think."

Tanya looks pained.

Viper says, "This is Tanya. From another dimension."

Tanya smiles and waves weakly.

Gina says, "Another Dimension?"

Kasey says, "She's been transported here somehow.."

Gina says, "Not the Tanya we know and hate?"

Viper says, "We suspect by this dimension's Tanya."

Tanya nods slowly. "They tell me things happened much differently here."

Estian comes in off the street.

Estian has arrived.

Tanya looks doubly hurt by the 'hate' comment.

Gina says, "Jinkies! How did you get here? What happened? Are you sure
it is a different Tanya?"

Viper says, "Yes."

Tanya says, "Gina.. I'm.. this is hard for me.. after all I did at the
wedding, to come here to a reception like this.. it's kind of
overwhelming."

Gina eyes Tanya, "What you did at the wedding here was deceive and..
wait.. why aren't you a little" She holds up her hands, "..a little
shrimp?"

Gina just laid her eyes on you.

Tanya says, "I don't understand what you mean.."

Viper says, "Because things happened rather differntly in the other
dimension."

Tanya says, "And at the wedding I spent most of the afternoon playing
games with Tifanny and Ra'Gia so they would be preoccupied and not spoil
the reception.. even though I sorely wanted to be in there and be with
my friend as she was married away."

Gina says, "Who is Ra'Gia and Tifanny?"

Tanya says, "Here, apparently, not your niece and nephew."

Tanya says, "Britanny and Stripe's children.."

Kasey says, "Gina, her story has more twists and turns than Ace trinna
shake Dark Bird outta the sky. It takes a while to wrap your brain
around."

Gina says, "Err.. not here.. Mom is still bugging Brit about wanting to
be a grandma."

Tanya says, "So much is different.. it's so hard to comprehend."

Tanya says, "And when.. *shudder* IF.. I get home.. I'll have to relearn it
all over again too."

Tanya says, "Oh no!"

Kasey says, "What?"

Gina says, "Hmm?"

Tanya looks at her watch. "I rented The Matrix and it was due back last
night.. I am going to have SO much late charges.. I hope your 'me' will
return it for me..

Viper -_-;

Gina snickers

Kasey says, "Er.. I don't think she's that conscientious.."

Gina says, "She isn't that nice.. Is she in your world?"

Tanya says, "I fear so.."

Gina says, "Poor Brit! She will think it is a friend and get double
crossed!"

Tanya trembles. "I'm afraid she might try to kill Britanny.. or some
other devious thing.."

Gina mutters to herself, "Maybe.. even killed."

Viper says, "... And?"

Tanya adds with despair, "And I have no idea how I got here, nor how to
get back.."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 5 minutes."

Gina says, "No spells up your sleeves?"

Tanya shakes her head. "The things we found in what I presume is my
counterpart's lab I can't even begin to replicate. She--I--no, *she*..
is making some very dangerous spells in there.

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 60 seconds."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Saving database. Game may freeze for a moment."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Save complete."

Gina says, "Even though I don't want her back.. We should get her back
to protect my little sister in that dimention."

Kasey nods.

Tanya says, "Gina, she's like a sister to me, too.. I couldn't bear to see
her come to harm. I want to help, too."

Gina snorts, "I am sorry.. but I have a hard time realizing that you of
all people want to help my sister."

Tanya looks upset.

Tanya says, "I keep hearing that."

Gina pats Tanya on the shoulder, "No offence to you, but you don't know
the Tanya we know."

Tanya says, "But you must believe me.. I would never to anything to harm
you, your sisters, or anyone else."

Tanya says, "I'm here to strengthen relations with Earth, not sever them."

Tanya says, "In any case Gina, I'm really, really upset by all the nasty
things I keep hearing. I'm.. she's not really like that here, is she?"

Pinky says, "She is a real B!*** yes..."

Tanya winces.

Pinky says, "She tried to kill Brit a couple of times and has tried to
break up her and Stripe on a few occasions."

Tanya says, "I would never do that! You have to trust me.."

Tanya says, "I'm really starting to get angry at 'myself' here. What
made her act like this?"

Pinky says, "From what I hear...she was power hungry."

Tanya says, "Really? How so?"

Gina says, "Well.. The Tanya we know wouldn't be above lying about all
this to seperate Cheets and Stripe either."

Tanya eyes Gina.

Tanya says, "...you don't believe me, do you?"

Kasey says, "Gina, they checked her out.. she's not from our world."

Pinky says, "Gina, Viper here said Tanya was DEFINATLY not a local."

Viper blinks and steps off a bit, holding one hand to an ear.

Gina says, "I am just pointing out what type of person Tanya is."

Pinky says, "I know, I thought that too, that's why I'm not letting her
outta my sight."

Viper says, "Aw crap."

Tanya huhs?

Viper says, "O1's finished scanning the portal thingy."

Kasey says, "What is it?"

Kasey feels like she should add "Sir."

Tanya says excitedly, "And??"

Viper says, "Guess what? It's a lunar-phased spell thingy."

Pinky says, "And that means?"

Tanya's shoulders sag. "That doesn't sound good."

Viper says, "It means that the moons in _both_ of the dimensions it
travels through need to be in almost the exact same sychronization."

Viper says, "O1 says the next time this happens is in about 3 months."

Tanya says, "Oh no!"

Pinky says, "Gack."

Gina says, "Be thankful it wasn't just a blue moon.."

Tanya says, "Think of what she could DO in all that time.. if she is as you
say she is.."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 5 minutes."

Tanya moans.

Tanya says, "What am I going to do??"

Viper says, "Guess we'll have to look into alternative methods of
transportation."

Tanya says, "Do you think it can be done?"

Gina says, "We can look into it first.. and if there is a way.. we will
find it"

Tanya says, "Oh, THANK you.. you're a true friend."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Database save in T minus 60 seconds."

Viper says, "I know it can be done. I just don't know how long it will
take."

Tanya says, "I.. er.. have another problem.."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Saving database. Game may freeze for a
moment."

GAME: Gina's Lab Computer says, "Save complete."

Tanya says, "If I'm stuck here.. don't get me wrong, being stuck here isnt'
TOO bad, but it's not home.. anyway, if I'm stuck here.. there are
people living in the apartment that is, to me, mine.. In other words I
need a place to stay.."

Pinky says, "You can crash at my place."

Pinky says, "I can keep a better eye on you that way."

Tanya says, "Thank you.. thank you very much.."

Tanya says, "But I'm not one that needs to have an eye kept on her.. I
promise you."

Kasey says, "You gotta understand, Tanya, Tanya is tricky."

Kasey .oO(Yow.)

Tanya looks around. "So what next?"

Pinky says, "We wait for Viper to find a way to get you home."

Tanya ohs.

Pinky mutters to herself, "... you're... the..."

Viper says, "I'll go start working on that, then."

Tanya says, "Thank you very much again."

Viper teleports in and out to get O1.

Viper takes Observer I.

Observer I has arrived.

Viper says, "I'll leave O1 here in case you need to contact me or
something."

Viper teleports away.

Kasey says, "Do you want me to take you back.. (sir?) I guess I should
go back to do more training too.."

Viper has left.

Kasey says, "...."

Kasey says, "I guess I should head back anyway. Hey, I bet I never told
Gina yet.. I got a job with them.."

Gina says, "With him??"

Kasey says, "Yeah.. well, with his company.. This little guy *points*
interviewed me at the apartments.. and now I'm in training."

Observer I waves. "Hi."

Gina says, "Ahh.. ok."

Observer I says, "Sooo.... um... Seen any good movies lately?"

Bio C comes in off the street.

Bio C has arrived.

Tanya says, "I saw the Matrix last night.. but I didn't think I'd be living
my own sci-fi/horror story right away.."

Kasey says, "So what're you up to these days, Gina?"

Bio C wanders into the complex holding his arm, "Hello?"

Bio C just laid his eyes on you.

Observer I looks over at Bio.

Observer I says, "Um..."

Kasey looks at Bio.

Kasey says, "Hi.."

Gina says, "Oh.. I have been studying the results of the tesla glove
that Ryan tested out for me that last adventure in the park."

Pinky says, "Hey BC."

Observer I says, "Tesla golve?"

Kasey winces and reaches for her ankle. "You have to remind me of that?
This just healed.." She smiles a little.

Gina waves a little to Bio

Bio C looks around, "Hello miss Pinky, miss Kasey! Would anyone here
have technical expertise to repair a titanium fracture?"

Pinky says, "How did you get a titanium fracture?"

Tanya just stares.

Kasey says, "Yeah.. I thought it couldn't.."

Observer I says, "... A welding torch?"

Observer I says, "Nah, under the right conditions, you can get it to
fracture."

Kasey hmms. "Guess I really should get back to work on my training,
then."

Bio C says, "I had a disagreement with a heavilly armored vehicle in a
bank heist."

Kasey says, "You robbed a bank?!"

Kasey steps back a little.

Bio C shakes his head, "No, I stopped the robbers."

Kasey ohs.

Bio C removes his hand to wave in dismissal. As he does his injured arm
falls off with a heavy chank.

Kasey says, "Gah!"

Pinky says, "EEK!"

Tanya jumps back a little as it lands before her.

Pinky tries to pick up the arm.

Observer I says, "Oh. A damaged cyberarm. Why didn't you say so?"

Bio C smiles, "That's nothing, you should see the armored vehilcle."

Kasey says, "Wow.."

Kasey says, "Oh, by the way, Bio.. do you know the stories about what
Tanya the Kryn priestess did at Brit and Stripe's wedding and all that?"

Bio C looks deep in thought, "No, but I do have the wedding announcement
from the Atlanta times."

Pinky hefts up the arm,"EEk heavy!"

Kasey says, "Oh, okay. Well, whatever you've heard doesn't apply to this
Tanya. Tanya, meet Bio C. BC, she's from another dimension."

Tanya waves timidly.

Bio C thoughtlessly waves befre realizing he's waving the stump, "Hello
miss..."

Tanya bends down to help Pinky. "Uhh.. here is your arm.."

Gina has disconnected.

Bio C takes the arm with a smile, "Thank you. How did you get to this
dimension miss Tanya?"

Tanya says, "I'm still not sure.. but it seems that the Tanya you know here
did something to swap places with me, or something.."

Bio C begins to quickly gather what he needs to repair his arm, "That
sounds bad. What is this tanya person capable of?"

Kasey says, "Well, she tried to off Brit more than once.. disguised
herself as Brit and told Stripe she hated him.."

Tanya looks more and more upset by the second.

Bio C removes the stump all the way up to his shoulder and begins to
wield the parts together, "Mrs. Brittany Diggers 'Gia is a werecreture.
This Tanya person must have been impressive to brave taking someone like
that on."

Tanya says, "She's my exact duplicate.. except I apparently had a much
better upbringing.."

Observer I says, "She _is_ a smoke mage..."

Tanya nods, "I am.."

Bio C blinks, "Smoke... mage? I have no data. What is that?"

Observer I says, "Far as I can tell, a mage with smoke-themed powers."

Observer I says, "Tanya? Can you elaborate?"

Tanya nods.. "My power draws upon and uses smoke, much like an auramage
would use or manipulate her or someone else's aura."

Bio C solders connections, "interesting."

Kasey says, "Hey, speaking of mages, I wonder if Dr. Diggers would be
able to help.. provided of course he doesn't believe you're an evil
woman bent on destroying his daughter's life, that is..""

Tanya chokes in a sob and runs into the house.

You climb up the steps onto the porch.

From Complex Driveway, Tanya has left.

Front Porch(#8RantJ)

	The front porch of the Diggers sisters' house is also known by
postal employees as "The Twilight Zone". From it, you could head west

You head into the living room.

Living Room(#12RantJ)

	Apart from the kitchen, this is the most-used room in the house.
It occupies a third of the aboveground portion of the complex, with a
pair of couches and chairs arranged around the room. A large
entertainment system is central, containing a TV, VCR, stereo, DVD
player, and so on. A window to the east shows part of the garage and
driveway, and one to the west shows the side of the neighbors' place. To

through the foyer. Finally, a door to the north leads to the rest of the
house.

Obvious exits:

Apartment Living Room(#65RntJ)

	This is Brit and Stripe's living room. It's much like the one
downstairs, in that it has several chairs and couches, a
state-of-the-art entertainment center, and a pair of large windows on
the east and west sides of the room. The elevator doors are to the
northwest, and the other rooms of the apartment are arrayed around the
corridor to the south.

Obvious exits:

 <SE>Southeast leads to Apartment Spare Room.

 <S>outh leads to Apartment Kitchen.

 <SW>Southwest leads to Apartment Bathroom.

 <W>est leads to Apartment Bedroom.

Pinky steps off the elevator.

Pinky has arrived.

Tanya is facedown on the couch, sniffling.

Pinky puases at the door for a mintue to see what Tanya is doing.

Pinky sees she's seems to be really crying.

Pinky says, "Tanya?"

Tanya is crying a little and mumbling.

Tanya says, "I'm not what you think.."

Tanya says, "I'm not a villainous soul... I couldn't be.."

Pinky says, "Here you are."

Tanya says, "Th.. thank you.."

Kasey peers in thru the window in the elevator room door.

Tanya says, "You know I'm telling the truth, right?"

Pinky says, "But..I belive in parpell worlds."

Pinky says, "I guess."

Pinky says, "I'm sorry but i'm not 100% postive."

Tanya frowns. "Well I'm not. Why would I say all these things?"

Pinky says, "To get a Brittanny with ease."

Tanya says, "Why would I want to 'get at' her.. she's my friend!"

KC steps off the elevator.

KC has arrived.

KC sneaks in.

Pinky says, "Not here she isn't."

Tanya says, "Listen.. you're worried about me when the real danger is
back in my world.. where 'your' Tanya could be destroying everything
even as we speak! Listen to me.. my primary concern is getting back
home. Does that sound like the will of a woman who wants to destroy
Cheets?"

Kasey steps off the elevator.

Kasey has arrived.

Kasey opens the door slowly and enters quietly, closing it behind her.

Pinky says, "No, no it doesn't."

Tanya says, "So, there."

Tanya says, "That should be all the proof you need."

KC sneaks up behind Kasey's leg and starts to growl at Tanya.

Tanya jumps and yelps at the sound.

Kasey looks down. "Hey! Quit that!"

Pinky turns,"Hey Kasey, Hey KC."

KC looks up at Kasey and licks its lips, "Arrwoof?"

Kasey says, "Uh, hi.. Tanya.. look, I'm sorry."

Tanya sniffles and nods. "It's okay... I think.."

KC wanders over to Tanya cautiously.

Before you is a small white and brown dog. It looks to be about 15 lbs.
total. It seems not much more that a fluff ball dog, but its eyes and
teeth are a strange silver color.

Tanya says, "H..hello, puppy.."

Kasey comes over and sits down in Brit's chair.

Pinky leans agains the wall watching.

KC skitters back into Brit's dresser. A music box falls off and squashes
KC flat.

Tanya says, "Eep!"

Kasey says, "Eh, he's okay."

Pinky says, "He's like playdoh."

Pinky says, "I'm amazed that dog lasted as a DOG as long as it did."

Tanya watches in disbelief.

KC slithers out from under the music box as a puddle of silver.

Kasey says, "What're you doin' up here anyway, KC?"

Tanya says, "Your world is so much different than mine.."

KC reforms into a hightly cute little furry kid and tries to pantomime
out what he wants to say, but isn't really successful.

Pinky says, "What's the biggest diff Tan?"

Tanya says, "Besides everyone's attitude towards me?"

Pinky says, "Yeah besides that."

Tanya says, "I guess.. uhm.. there are a lot of people here that if I
had lived my life here the way I'm living it back home, I should know,
and I don't. Like those two guys in the driveway.. and you.. *nods to
Kasey*"

Kasey says, "I only got here a few weeks ago myself."

KC finally gets up enough nerve to approach Tanya. He waddles over
(still as a furry little kid) and sniffs her hand.

Tanya absently pets the "kid"'s head.

Tanya says, "The shock of me not being who I am back home is the biggest
problem.. for example.. you DO have a thing here called the Internet,
right? Hooked up to computers?"

Pinky says, "Yes..we have that."

Tanya whews. "Good, I won't miss any Sabrina."
