Chapter one:
The group look around.
The place seems it was abandoned for quite some time now.
It looks to be the common room but abandoned looking.
"Where are we Matt?" Rodger turns to Matt.
"Either another dimension or the future." Matt says looking at the screen typing things. "I've never actually tested it."
"Well can you get us back?" Rodger asks.
Matt pauses. "This thing doesn't have enough power. Something went wrong. We crossed dimensions but the machine needs energy."
"So let's find an outlet." Rodger says looking around.
"I doubt that any electricity is here." Matt says ducking under the keyboard panel to pull out a leather strap he had made to help him carry his machine around. He straps it to himself. "And besides." He looks up with a grin. "We can see what another dimension is like." He takes the lead and everyone follows him. "I managed to get us to the dimension next to ours." He explains as they walk. "However to travel backwards turns out we will need more energy than I thought."
They leave Whammy's house pushing open the gate … Only for it to fall off.
"Well let's get to the city." Rodger says.
The group now lead by Rodger head for the city.
Everyone looks around at the path.
It looks like something happened here like maybe a fight or something but no one can say with full certainty.
They make it but have to stop when they see the state of the city.
It is ruin, cars abandoned and some cars are even flipped over or look like they almost crashed together with some just sitting parked wherever they were parked before being abandoned.
The cars just sitting there not parked have one or more doors open like they were abandoned in a hurry.
Everything looks to be deserted and the air feels almost dusty.
Some notice that a few garages are at least about half open or so.
"What happened here?" Rodger wonders.
The group cautiously moves into the abandoned city as they look around at the abandoned places.
It definitely looks like some kind of fight went on here before things became abandoned.
The group stops when they hear something behind them. They turn a little slowly but there appears to be nothing there.
Matt whimpers in fear. "Maybe this machine wasn't a good idea."
A shadow comes up encasing Matt in it and a few others.
Matt turns to look to it and his eyes widen at what he sees.
It's some sort of scaly beast like things that look like an ugly mix of crab, beast and human. It has the little legs and body of the crab, that is enlarged to fit their much bigger body; it also has two slightly longer little legs that seem to be three fingered hands as they have legs that look to be in the same way but the legs are longer and they have holes for their mouth with little legs all around the hole as if to act as some kind of lips maybe teeth as well. It's eyes seem to be small but they have four eyes though you can't really see the color of them and their scales are quite a dark brown in color.
Matt screams in terror and everyone else turns only to spot the beast.
The beast roars and the group dashes off in the opposite direction as the beast chases after them.
They head for the woods finding a path and run into them with Rodger telling them to stay as a group.
Suddenly they have to stop as the trees are now too thick to stay as a group.
They turn as the beast slows down seeming to sense it has them trapped.
The beast makes a gurgling noise as the adults move in front of the kids. It begins to advance a little slower.
Suddenly there is a noise from behind the Whammy's.
The beast raises it's head as if to try to see what made the noise.
Two figures rush past the Whammy's and skid to a stop only to raise the strange weapons they have.
The Whammy's gasp when they see that the two are Mello and Near …. Just from this dimension.
Near is wearing a grey t-shirt and tinted blue pants with dirty white runners.
Mello is wearing a dark brown t-shirt with black pants and black runners.
The two definitely look at least a little older than the Whammy's Mello and Near.
Mello and Near from this world fire their weapons blasting the beast in flames. They stop at just the right time.
The beast is burnt and it opens it's mouth only for a small puff of smoke to appear then it just falls backwards probably dead.
Three more figures rush out behind the Whammy's to ahead of them.
One is the Matt from this world who is wearing a darkly colored red and blue stripped shirt with a fuzzy vest and jean colored blue pants with black runners. He also has the weapon strapped to his back that was used to burn the beast.
The other two are obviously much younger.
"Yay! Another one down for the count." The eldest of the two younger ones cheers. She is still obvious younger than the four; she has ginger hair that goes to her jaw but is messily cut and looks like it is wind swept slightly like when you move back fast enough with most of the windswept being in the front. She has a black pirate hat with yellow lining on the edges, two pirate skulls on the flaps that seem to have been folded upwards like a true pirate hat and a blue feather sticking out of the right skull. She has dark grey fabric with a pirate skull each on her upper arms with the one on her right is closer to her elbow and the one on her left is closer to her shoulder. She is wearing a mahogany tightfitting tank top that if she was older it would show a little of her cleavage and the design is a faded in color red pirate skull. She has blood red pants what only have front pockets that are black. She has black tie up that go a little past her ankles boots that have a clipped closed pocket each on the outer side and a zipped up zipper on each inner side. Her amber eyes sparkle with mischief.
The other is a male who is younger than the female. He has sandy blonde hair pulled back into a small ponytail, slightly tan skin unlike the females more pale skin and he has turquoise eyes. He looks more shy. He is wearing dark purple shorts that go to his knees, light brown kid sneakers and a dark brown slightly baggy t-shirt. He hasn't said anything as he sticks by the girl.
"Wow that was amazing!" Whammy's Matt says impressed.
The five from this world turn to the Whammy's.
"I take it you're from another world." This worlds Mello speaks.
"Yeah." Rodger says. "Our Matt built a machine that took us here. Yet we don't have enough power to get home."
"Oh wow you invented a dimension machine?" This worlds Matt gasps. "That's cool."
This worlds Mello and Near put their weapons away on their backs.
"Well what kind of energy do you need?" This worlds Near asks.
"This world isn't for the weak hearted or anyone who cannot defend themselves." This worlds Mello says in warning. "It'll be better for you to get home as soon as possible."
"Well if I can find a ton of electricity I should be able to get it working." Whammy's Matt says. "But the town probably has no electricity left."
"Well there is no choice." This worlds Near says. "There is no place that is not abandoned. This world is under war. Us against the beasts."
"How many are there of you?" Whammy's Mello asks.
