Summary (Longer): Sabina's life currently is going down the toilet fast, she's loosing grip on things and in comes two characters from movies she loves, then there's the whole demon thing and then she finds out of this special society that keeps realities in order with not just these characters but many others. What is up with the rings and what kind of mess is she really gotten herself into? She thought her problems were bad before, now their just a little more complicated.

Chapter 1: Inconceviable

Sabina had a rough morning as it was and had decided to take a long walk through the woods where she lived. Between phone calls, relatives yelling over property, and her cousin bugging her about her choice of friends she couldn't take anymore. Her friends abandoned her literally after she had a disagreement with how to run her own life, they had felt she needed to come with them and get into trouble. She brushed out her waist length blonde wavy hair and concentrated her focus on the trees ahead; her blue eyes paused at the thickest part which had her favorite climbing tree hidden from view. She had lived in this area since she was born and knew the woods so well she could probably get through them in her sleep, this particular spot was right near the creek that ran out behind her house and was a few feet or so from the falls. Sabina glanced at her bellbottoms and rather decent light blue sweater; she was wearing her good cloths which meant climbing around trees would more then likely ruin them. "I don't care." She ignored the thought and proceeded to climb up through the thick leaves finally resting on a large branch that had a clearing to look over the running water.

Sabina sighed listening to the water intently. "Since gram died everyone wants to fight…I can't take it anymore." She glared across the water her blue gaze hardening to an icy look.

After her grandmothers passing all hell had literally broken loose with relatives, family, and her friends their biggest issue was she needed to move on and party her life away. Sabina was far too mature for that and had promised her grandmother she would not let anyone push her from her goals, unfortunately that promise showed her how many real friends she had. She sat there for what felt like hours and glanced up hearing splashes coming down stream, the creek was very shallow due to the warm weather and was running a bit slow. "Who in their right mind would be running down this creek with all the rocks and at full tilt?" she could tell by the pace that it was a race from something but couldn't quite put her finger on it. After a moment of hesitation she climb carefully down from the tree and went down the bank sitting down on an old branch to observed whomever was rushing through the creek, her main concern was all the rocks and the idiots doing the running, she was afraid they would kill themselves at the pace they were holding. Two figures run by and were both of period dress, she nearly fell off her seat recognizing both of them before noticing some more figures rushing by and frowning. "What on earth is going on?" She against her better judgment and common sense climb the rest of the way down the bank and skidded her way carefully down the rocks following after the group.

**********************

Rushing through the water with whatever may have been living within it was not Willy's favorite pastime, he also was not happy with Ichabod's brilliant run for it plan to begin with. "How did we get in this one?" he skidded across a particularly slippery rock and candy cursed. His crimson frock coat and Edwardian style dress were currently soaked, his top hat probably had a hole in it by then and his cane was currently being used to brace himself in various spots.

"Ichabod this is not what I had in mind when I thought we should run." Ichabod slid abruptly at being spoken too, finally managing to stop from falling head long into the water. His black suit was just as wet and uncomfortable by then as Willy's probably was and he was thoroughly annoyed at being followed. "Watch it!" both halted immediately at the sight of a drop ahead and glanced down the falls. "Pixie Sticks."

Ichabod frowned glancing behind them. "Your form of swearing isn't helping." Both were annoyed with their situation and one another at the moment. "It was your idea to come here for some odd reason, this is not my fault." He heard the four approaching figures starting to slow and grabbed a branch off the side of the bank for a weapon.

**********************

Sabina had managed to slip on the rocks a half dozen times before she realized the group stopped before the drop over the falls. "I know that this is impossible, but then again nothing is impossible as far as I'm concerned…this is still off the charts though." She stopped a few feet away and observed hidden among several small bushes attempting to catch her breath, they were far to fast for her liking.

"I've finally cracked…Ichabod Crane and Willy Wonka are in my creek fighting…" she paused at that, she didn't know of Willy Wonka to fight especially anywhere near as good as he was. "Fighting?" she shrugged. "What are they…not possible." Again an understatement currently since she had already went over that with herself.

Sabina stood there watching both Ichabod and Willy fighting with what appeared as human like demons. Four of them were fairly human in appearance except for the fact they had long three inch talons, each had dark raven hair and serpent like red eyes flashing viciously. She watched, her mouth frozen in an 'O' of shock when Willy used his familiar nerd filled cane and walloped one of the demons in the head forcing it to splash down among the water surrounding them. No matter how many times he or Ichabod managed to hit them or use what she knew to be martial arts like moves, they would get back up and swipe at them viciously.

She shook from her dazed look seeing Willy was being backed up against the edge of the falls. "He's going to go over." She reacted more or less without thinking and climb up the bank taking a hidden path made by the animals.

**********************

Ichabod ducked one of the talons from the two demons who had ganged up on him, he wasn't having any luck at going to help Willy and what was worse his friend was about to go over the falls. The water was too shallow and surely he would either kill himself or become severely injured, he attempted another rescue and managed to get his arm slashed open.

Willy glanced down and gulped violet eyes widening when he realized the two demons intentions. "This is going to be very hurtful." He ducked a clawed hand, managing to ram his cane into the demons gut, unfortunately he also left himself open and felt a sharp pain in his shoulder stumbling from the blow. "Ahhhh!"

Sabina jumped from the bank landing harshly on her knees and scrambled on her feet catching the startled Willy Wonka's wrists and holding on with all her strength. "Damn it." She hissed hauling until he managed to lock his feet into some rocks and pull himself up. "Uh oh." She saw his eyes widen in shock and reflexively dodged to the side lifting her foot, one demon went headlong into the falls below and she heard a loud crunch that followed after. "That didn't sound pleasant." She winced guessing he landed rather painfully head first and snapped his neck.

Ichabod watched the strange girl come from nowhere and save Willy; the distraction was enough to make the demon pause in his attack. He quickly rammed the sharp end of the stick in the demons chest and winced at the odd shriek sound. Sabina climb to her feet wrinkling her nose at her now soaked clothing and sighed irritably, her day had gone from bad to worse. She stepped back to the bank watching Willy and Ichabod continue their fight sending the last two demons over into the falls, both made horrible crunching sounds upon landing. "That sound is just so gross, it gives a good image." She shook herself at the thought.

**********************

Ichabod glanced over Willy thankful he appeared to be fine other then a nice slash across his left shoulder, his right arm hadn't faired much better in the fight and was currently red with blood as well. Both glanced at Sabina who was currently distracted by wringing out her shirt and her jeans as best she could, there was no hope for her sneakers or her hair by then.

"Where did she come from?" Ichabod finally broke the silence glancing at Willy who was still studying Sabina curiously.

Willy shrugged hearing her cursing profusely under her breath, it amused him oddly enough. "No idea…good thing she did though, their landings didn't sound pleasant." He wrinkled his face glancing down over the falls at the slowly dematerializing bodies of the four demons.

Sabina hated being talked about like she wasn't there and finally gave up on her soaked clothing. "I can hear you, you do realize?" she glanced up at the curious gazes observing her and frowned in concern, both were hurt pretty badly. "How the hell did two fictional characters end up being chased by demons and almost getting killed?" she glanced at the two startled faces. "You're both hurt…come on." Without another word she started back up the bank pausing on the path that would lead them to safety.

Ichabod rose a brow at her abrasive manner, she wasn't in an overly good mood and somehow he got the feeling it was not because of their appearance.

"Excuse me missy, I resent being called fictional." Willy crossed his arms and pouted irritably at her.

Sabina offered a forced smile. "Tough…come on before those get worse." She waited with an air that made Ichabod decide arguing with her would be very bad at the moment.

Ichabod hushed Willy from furthering his usual annoying ways and motioned for him to follow. Sabina ignored the scowl on Willy's face smirking at how easily she had won the little tiff; she then started to lead the way through the hidden animal path back to her favorite spot where the whole thing started. Carefully she pushed her way through the branches and bushes keeping them aside for the two injured movie characters to get through, she then led the way down a tractor made path until they come out of the woods into a clearing. She continued to lead them across the high grassed field until they come to a beaten dirt road.

"This way." She started down the road hearing the others talking behind her among themselves, she had a feeling it had something to do with her and their appearance but would wait to bother them, she wanted to get them cleaned up first and make sure nothing was wrong with those wounds.

**********************

Ichabod was studying Sabina lost in thought while listening to Willy complain about his suit, cuts, bruises, and various other things currently annoying him. Sometimes Ichabod's patience with the chocolatier would run thin, he turned raising a hand to silence Willy's complaints.

Willy scowled at him but waited instead of grumbling about being interrupted. "That girl, she doesn't have something to do with this whole thing does she? Why does she know of us and why did she call us fictional characters?" Willy glanced ahead at Sabina watching her attempt to wring out her clothing as they walked down a steep dirt road and passed more woods.

"Why didn't you faint back there when you were cut?" Willy retorted sourly still irritated with Ichabod. "And how am I supposed to know?"

Ichabod sighed and shot him a dark look. "I don't faint at everything that goes wrong." He continued to think over their new acquaintance and how easily she had brushed Willy off, he found himself smiling at this.

Willy snorted and shot him his own look of disdain. "Yes you do." Both glanced up when she paused turning to glance back at them, she then shrugged continuing to lead the way. "I don't like her." Ichabod smirked at this.

"For the first time since I met you, I think you like her." Willy shot Ichabod a dark look at this. "She's stood up to you; you want to get to know her." He couldn't help the small smile when Willy's eyes narrowed irritably.

"I hate you Ichabod." Willy scowled and kept his gaze locked ahead. "I hate when he does that, how can he figure me out and I can't figure him out?" he started to twirl his cane out of annoyed habit; he needed something to distract himself at the moment.

**********************

Sabina couldn't help but smile, she had heard the last part of that conversation and had a feeling it wouldn't end there. "They're nothing like the movies or books." She didn't like this aspect but decided it wasn't exactly bad; they were similar in a sense which made her a bit less uneasy. Soon they come to a clearing in the woods leading to a massive backyard with a large blue and white house fixed in the middle of a massive garden. She walked up to the front steps and opened the front door with a light sigh; she was home and had a lot to currently figure out.

Willy and Ichabod both eyed the glass doorway and then the large kitchen she walked into. "Come in so I can get those taken care of." She walked through kitchen and glanced around in thought, before heading out into a living room and then down a hall to the bathroom to get first aid supplies.

The kitchen was cozy with crème colored walls, red carpet, a large oak table in the middle, several cupboards two tan china cabinets full of various knickknacks and then the stand with the microwave. There were plants galore through the living room which both glanced out into, along with pale blue walls, matching carpet with the more china cabinets, entertainment stand and a couple of indoor trees off next to a closet that lead to another pair of glass doors. Ichabod and Willy studied the house curiously before Willy wandered back into the kitchen and proceeded to nose through the cabinets and eye the knickknacks. Ichabod studied the hard wood floor where the blue carpet ended and saw a gray carpet leading down the hall to at least four other rooms, there were bookcases lined with books and various pictures lining the walls.

**********************

Sabina glanced around her bathroom and leaned on the counter taking a deep breath. Her day had gone from bad to worse, and then to strange. She knew her current guests would have questions of their own and she had some of her own, but for the moment she had to gather her first aid things and see if she could help them or if she needed to get them stitched up. "Demons, Willy Wonka, and Ichabod Crane…why didn't he faint?" she shrugged glancing around the blue bathroom with white and teal tiles, she lent down on the gold carpet and proceeded to rummage around under the bathroom sink, through the closet, and finally the dresser gathering things together. She stood up jumping at her reflection in the mirror behind her and shook her head; she was definitely stressed to her limits at the moment.

Ring, Ring, Ring,

She cursed walking out into the hall and into the kitchen; she placed the items on the kitchen table ignoring the curious pair before picking up the phone. "Leave me the hell alone." She promptly slammed the phone down and sunk into a chair laying her head down on the kitchen table.

Willy sent Ichabod an odd look; Ichabod shrugged watching him continuing his nosing through the cupboards and such. She glanced up watching Willy go through the cupboards and rolled her eyes, there was one thing that wasn't different from what she knew about them. Ichabod's eyes widened in surprise glancing behind her at a black eight legged spider which was currently situated on the wall near her phone.

Willy stopped long enough to notice a panicked expression on Ichabod's face, which was followed by a slight paling of the skin. "Ew." Sabina turned long enough to see the spider and was out of her chair and halfway into the living room before either could react. "I don't think she likes them either." He casually walked over to the spider cupping it into his hands and walked to the door tossing it out.

Ichabod shuddered a disgusted look on his face, Willy only smirked his violet eyes twinkling knowingly. "You did toss it out this time right?" Ichabod shot him a distrusting look.

Willy nodded and giggled in his high pitched way, Ichabod was never going to forgive him for pretending to toss a spider away and placing it on his shoulder. "Never going to forget are you?"

Sabina hesitantly stepped into the kitchen eyeing him suspiciously, apparently she knew more about both of them then they had guessed so far. "He better have, otherwise I'll remove his reproductive organs." Willy's jaw dropped at this, while Ichabod stifled an amused chuckle, no one had actually been this blunt or dangerous with Willy before, almost no one.

With an annoyed 'pixie sticks' Willy walked over and proceeded to continue his snooping session, this didn't appear to bother Sabina or matter. "I need one of you to sit here so I can clean those up." Willy stuck out his tongue and continued to snoop ignoring her dirty look. "Veruca wannabe." Ichabod's jaw dropped in surprise at this; Willy just dropped his cane and turned a dangerously narrowed violet gaze on her. "What? That's exactly how you're acting right now." His gaze remained narrowed on her.

"Willy, don't." Ichabod could already see him searching carefully through some of his many pockets, he was up to something and it involved on of his more interesting candies. "You can check my wound." He decided being the peacemaker at this point was wise, he hadn't seen anyone rile Willy up this quickly before and he could tell Willy found it very appealing even under his usual temperament and childish behavior. "You have yet to tell us who you are?"

Sabina smiled slightly getting the bottle of peroxide and watching Ichabod remove his coat and attempt to lift his sleeve above the wound. "Sabina Crystal…you're going to have to take off your shirt Ichabod." She noticed Willy pause in his search his violet eyes showing amusement at the uncomfortable look on Ichabod's face. "Right…to help clarify things, this is 2007 and it is common practice for men to walk around without shirts. Now that we've settled this issue…I need to get a look at that slash." She crossed her arms seeing Ichabod give her a surprised look, while Willy tilted his head appearing to be thinking things over.

Ichabod sighed giving her a look that only hinted at contempt, but carefully did so wincing when the material left the injured area. "That demon did a number on you." She observed the slash hesitantly and grabbed the washcloth on the table; she then walked past the table and around Willy who was still lost in thought. She grabbed a wash basin she kept to carry water about for wounds and such; she filled it with warm slightly soapy water and placed it on the table dipping the cloth into it. She carefully started to wash off the blood and debris disliking the ugly red slashes she was uncovering, she had a feeling that Willy wasn't in any better shape and was probably sore from her catching him from his fatal fall.

"Ichabod…I think you might have been right." Ichabod winced ignoring the current treating of his wound and studied the nervous violet gaze that met his. "This can't be a good thing."

"I gathered that when she mentioned the year." Willy stuck out his tongue and promptly crossed his arms in a pouting fashion. "You are unbelievably childish at times." He sighed startled when he felt a slight tingling sensation and watched Sabina carefully drying down the peroxide covered slashes.

"I thought he was all the time." Willy walked over near both of them and smiled almost evilly, Ichabod already knew he found what he was looking for in his pockets. She paused in her unwrapping of the gauze for Ichabod's wound eyeing Willy suspiciously, he then handed her a small box of what she could see where still dry candies. "No thanks, I know I've gotten on your nerves…would rather not become a walking blueberry or something else." She proceeded to put the gauze on Ichabod's slashes and got the medical tape to finish her work.

Ichabod couldn't help the chuckle that escaped and saw Willy's gaze flare at both them. "She knows too much…she's got to be involved somehow." He crossed his arms, page boy style hair falling to the side when he lent to the side to observe them both.

Enough was enough; Sabina really hated being talked about when she was right in the room. "Sitting right here…so now what's your problem candy man?" she received a withering look for this, but Ichabod saw an almost amused twinkle in those violet eyes, whether intended or not she was intriguing Willy and he was developing an odd fascination with her. "Involved in what?" she brushed aside Ichabod longish dark hair to check for scraps around his face, finding nothing to worry about and nodded.

Ichabod satisfied with his wound slid back into his cloths and pointed for Willy to get taken care of, after seeing he was going to be unusually stubborn Ichabod grabbed his good arm and forced him into the chair.

"I'm not getting out of my cloths and she isn't touching me." Willy ignored the exasperated look on Ichabod's face and smirked at the scathing look Sabina sent his way.

Sabina smiled slightly getting up and getting fresh water and another cloth, before returning to her seat and studying the stubborn chocolatier. "You have a choice Willy, remove your layers so I can fix that…or else I will do it for you and I won't be polite about it either." She met his violet gaze with a cold warning stare.

Ichabod was rather surprised at how easily her moods fluctuated and how easily she could seem to deal with Willy without wanting to strangle him immediately. He heard Willy swallow hard already seeing she was very serious, with an annoyed huff he proceeded to take of his frock coat, vest, and finally his shirt. Ichabod did everything he could to suppress his laughter at the dark look in those violet eyes, he then felt the smile fade from his face getting a good look at Willy's shoulder, it was slashed twice and he was bruising in other spots, along with another slash on his ribs. "Willy Wonka…you got the worst end of the deal." She winced at the ugly slashes on his shoulder; the demons did a number on him while Ichabod tried to get to him.

"Somehow you got involved in our current mission." She nodded listening carefully to Ichabod's soft voice and concentrated on treating Willy, she hoped the slashes weren't deep enough to require stitches. "You must have something here to know about us in some aspects so I'll try not to make this too complicated." She continued to work and nodded already disliking where this was heading.

--Story--

We live in a massively over populated city, there are several various levels of security and such. We're known as Dimensional agents and travel through various wormholes, time dimensions and other realities. It's a futuristic city that took us from various times in that world and put us together into the dimensional agents unit. There's been a severe disturbance in various dimensions lately…especially the Monster Dimension. This dimension is basically a place to keep demons, monsters, and the other supernatural things in one place. There was a breech within this dimension and we are investigating that breech, unfortunately we keep getting sidetracked in other realities avoiding incidence with those things and other various critters.

Willy and I are one of the several units sent out to take care of this and apparently are getting too close for their liking, we learned from one of our superiors that there would be a change in our search and we would stumble across a strange girl that might be able to help us along, unfortunately she was never clear on when or how we would find her. The others were also informed of this and we were supposed to check in once we found her.

--End story--

**********************

Once Ichabod was done with the story Sabina had about finished taking care of Willy's worst wounds and was studying the bruises for possible breaks, he glowered at her all the while but oddly enough didn't flinch away. She knew that they were waiting for her to respond on how she knew them and also knew that she would have to answer their questions too, but something bothered her about Ichabod's story. "If that's the case, then all your personalities are definitely a bit different then those in my reality." She stood emptying the water and watched Willy start to return his clothing.

"How do you know it's me?" She rinsed out the sink and went to put the first aid things away, hearing both of them follow her to the bathroom and proceeded to put things away ignoring their looming presence. "I'm nothing overly special, just spend to much time to myself." She ignored the sad note in her voice; she had once had lots of friends until she needed them most.

Willy and Ichabod both exchanged looks with each other, they hadn't expected that. They expected her to scoff at them or tell them to go home, not just brush it aside. Willy pointed to the room across from the bathroom and went to go nosing about which was common. Ichabod was trying to come up with a good answer for Sabina when he heard a startled sound and turned to the pink room across from them, against his better judgment he walked across the mint colored carpet and saw Willy was staring at shelves of various items, books and such that revolved around anything from supernatural to science fiction, this girl would not be easily shocked by them because clearly she believed in things others couldn't begin to.

"Willy Wonka…you're nosy as hell." She saw him jump and turn at her amused voice. "You two look like you've seen a spook." She had a feeling her little oddity room had proven something and she wasn't going to like her answer.

"Sabina…you might want to sit." She studied Ichabod for a moment and shrugged walking back out into the kitchen and taking a seat as suggested, something was going on again. "That room…how long have you been interested in…

"Weird things…since I could watch TV and read a book, and before you ask…yes I do practice witchcraft to an extent, not a master at it." She had apparently cut of Willy's question because his once raised purple gloved finger went right back down. "Point?"

"Our superiors were referring to you…that and the fact you were right there when we come running by, she mentioned something about it being destiny." Sabina had a feeling she knew of at least one of their superiors then and sighed. Willy saw she was starting to surrender and smirked before continuing. "Anything you want to tell us now?" she glowered at him and was half tempted to slap the smug look off his face, she decided against it for the moment since he was already a mess.

"Books and movies…that way." She pointed to a shelf off to the left of the large picture window near the entertainment stand. "I'm getting some aspirin." She ignored the smug smirk on Willy's face and walked back to the bathroom.
