It had to be one of the hottest days in London with the temperatures swelling up to 28C°, and it was even hotter inside the ARC. To make matters worse the A.C. just happened to not be working.
Every one had switched there normal attire to those of summer. Even Becker had, on a couple of occasions switched to wear civvies. Everyone tried to stay cool, Connor even tried creating a super fan… That didn't go so well… Lester finally had men bring in large fans to cover every inch of the ARC.
Jess herself had her hair in a high ponytail, her bangs down. She had a light blue tank top and a white silk-georgette skirt. A black bow belt on her waist.
It was already 3:30 in the afternoon and no anomaly had shown up. In the next hour people started heading home. Abby and Connor had left earlier saying something about breaking in a new bed… Becker was still in the armory with his guns. 'He probably doesn't want his poor guns to melt' Jess thought giggling.
She looked at the ADD. Lester had decided that Jess would have a big pile of paper work to do. So far she had only managed to finish a third of it. She looked at her watch it read 4:43 p.m. Jess was going to be here for a long time.
She hopped off her seat a headed toward the break room to make a pot of coffee. She sat on the couch her legs tucked under her. It was so hot, Jess thought yawning. She looked around, no one was to be seen, she leaned against the arm rest and closed her eyes.
She closed her eyes… just for a rest of course… it was terribly hot…
"Jess! Jess!" a man's voice echoed through her mind. Jess stirred and cracked open her eyes quickly then snapped them shut. The room was bright. She placed her hand over her eyes. Glancing at her watch, she saw the time, 8:43. Shit.
She sat up quickly, how did see fall asleep? Why had no one bothered to wake her? She walked down to the ADD, all the computers where turned off. Why do people think its okay to touch her ADD? Jess fumed.
She turned back around; Lester's office was pitch black, as were the hallways. Jess was confused, where was everyone, and why did they not wake her up. They must of passed her on the way out at least! 'I need to call Connor or Abby.' Jess started to head for the darkened hallway toward the lockers.
"Jess." a man called the same voice in her dream. She turned around slowly to see a man with short blonde hair. He was well groomed. He had a bright red suit on, white shirt under and a thin black tie. He had expensive looking dress shoes on his feet. And he was carry a walking stick…
'Okay' Jess looked at the man again. He looked really familiar…
"Je-ess, you're going to make us late. For a very important date" he rhymed.
"Wait, what? How do you know my name?" Then she remembered who he was from the picture in the file and that one time she met him.
"Danny?" Jess said shocked. 'What the hell was he doing here? I thought he went back through the anomaly?
He ignored her and repeated "We're going to be late for a very important date." He looked down and his stick, which until now Jess had not noticed, was a pocket watch. The chain was wrapped around the walking stick, the watch dangling on the side.
"What are you talking about Danny? Where is everybody? What are you doing here?" Jess spoke rapidly.
Jess heard a rustle sound behind her and stiffened. A glow was emitting from behind her. 'Oh no. This is not good.' Jess turned slowly on her heel. It was an anomaly. "Danny, get the Locking Mechanism before something comes through!" Jess yelled. She took a step back. Danny hadn't responded.
"Get the locking device!" Jess hissed staring at the anomaly. He wasn't responded. Jess was getting frustrated. 'Why the hell…'
Jess turned to look back at Danny, but felt a circular object slam into her back. And she fell forward into the anomaly.
Jess fell in the glowing ball, but just kept falling and falling. Jess was in hysteria.
"Danny pushed me! He effing pushed me into the anomaly, with his walking stick!'
Jess was still falling with no notion of stopping anytime soon. Her skirt was flying up and Jess was trying to push it straight, but the way she was falling. It was like she was diving into a pool.
It looked like she was being sucked into a tube. She looked around, the glowing glass from the anomaly looked like it had formed a tube. The glowing glass was floating around her.
She looked back down the tube and noticed she was coming to an end. 'Oh my god! I'm going to die… falling down an anomaly!' Jess covered her face with her arms and shut her eyes, waiting for the impact. Its was surprisingly soft. And she managed to fall in a sitting position. Something soft had fallen around her. She looked down, she had changed clothes.
She was wearing a vintage looking dress. It was light blue. The top was a lace white and a blue bow was on the left side of her waist. I was soft and silky. She had a pair of fingerless gloves, they where blue and white striped .
Her hair was down and flipped at the end, and she felt a braid separating her bangs from the rest of her hair. 'Talk about psychedelic' Jess sat up huffing her bangs out of her face.
"Curiouser…," she looked around, "…and curiouser…" She was in the menagerie, except she really wasn't, well not exactly. The room had been washed in white and red.
'How ummm, lovely.' Jess mused studying her surroundings. It defiantly had a 'Queen of Hearts' style. Maybe just a tad over doing it. The white walls were adorned with red signs of love and hearts.
"Well, I'm certainly in the wrong ARC." She stood up adjusting herself. She looked down. She had a pair of heels on. They where a plum color and came up mid-calf.
"They look pretty cute." She shook her head. 'Now to get out of here…' She turned left and headed toward the doors. Except there was no doors, they had been taken off.
She looked at the arc of the door. The numbers 333 were written in bright red. 'Okay… weird. What is that supposed to mean?" She shook her head confused and head out the door way.
