That did it. Oh, did it ever. Her heart seemed to wake up, and she did too. "I'm up, I'm up..." Jo mumbled. Everyone in the room seemed to breath a sigh of relief.
General O'Neal snapped back to formality, if you could call it that. "I don't know what happened, and right now, I don't really care." He addressed the strangers in the room. "I want you all to follow me – we are going to the infirmary."
Inuyasha spoke up. "Feh, I'm not going anywhere with you. I want to know where we are, who you are, and what the hell is going on..."
General O'Neal looked rather – miffed. "I can tell you you're here – that's it. We'll work on getting answers once we figure out who you all are. Now get moving."
The hanyou was about to speak again, but Kagome ribbed him. "Come on – let's just comply, at least for now. There is too much confusion right now for you to fly off the handle right now..."
Kurama turned to his team mates. "I agree with her. I think something drastic has happened, and whatever that was, it was an accident." Hiei responded with his regular response: silence.
The newcomers decided to comply with the general's wishes. They followed O'Neal and the gurney that the now breathing girl lay on. The doors to the infirmary closed tightly. No one was leaving without clearance.
Nurses began examining Jo, despite her protests. "I'm fine, lay off, let me up..." her voice prattled. General O'Neal spoke almost harshly. "Take it an like it, Jo. It's for your own good." Jo immediately quieted. Hiei took mental note of her submission. Cater pulled up a chair. "You gave us a scare..." Daniel nodded. "For a second there, I thought you were following my example." Tealc spoke quietly. "We are not ready for you to ascend yet, no matter how ready you think you are." Jo's comment was quiet. "I'm fine. I promise." O'Neal interrupted the conversation. "Ok, let's get started. We have a bunch of people to go through..."
"State your name, age and race."
"Yusuke Urameshi, 16, human.
"Hiei – wouldn't you like to know the rest."
O'Neal looked a bit amused. "Not human then." Hiei growled slightly.
"You'll all be assigned to quarters, and given access cards. You will only be authorized to be in certain areas, which is the only thing that card is for. And, under no circumstances will you be allowed to leave this base. Understood?"
Groans. Hollering and 'hell nos'. But everyone reluctantly agreed.Miroku and Kagome wandered the halls. "Do you think we'll get to go home soon, Miroku?" Kagome looked worried. She had looked like that since they had gotten here.
"I don't know. We are completely at these people's mercy. I'm still troubled at what happened when we first got here."
Kagome looked at the houshi's troubled face. "You mean when they revived that girl?" Miroku nodded. "It was disturbing. I think that is the first time I saw a woman's chest and had decent thoughts."
Kagome sighed. "Miroku, you are such a perv. Try to behave, ok?"Jo was in the lab now, as she had been released from the infirmary. She was in the lab with Daniel and Carter. She stared at the numbers and symbols on the board. They were trying to figure out what had happened to cause this.
"I need music. Inspiration. I'm drawing a blank." Jo spoke up. Daniel held up a CD. "How about Vivaldi? Vivaldi's good." Carter agreed. They both hoped that she did not put in her other 'music'. It was loud.
"No, that won't work. This..." She put in a CD of her own. "This will work.
She continued staring at the board, singing softly as the music played.
Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me into madness
Hiei and Kurama found there way to the source of the loud music. Kurama looked at the task before Jo and sighed heavily. "This could take awhile..."
Hiei winced slightly. "Such noise..." He also wondered if Jo could decipher that information before her.
I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away
If I will it all away
Don't turn away
Don't give into the pain
Don't try to hide
Though they're screaming your name
Don't close your eyes
God knows what lies behind them
Don't turn out the light
Never sleep never die
Yusuke and Kuwabara silently joined their companions, watching.
I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know that there's much more to come
Immobilized by my fears
And soon to be blinded by tears
A look of realization came across the girl's face. Jo's features brightened considerably. Miroku and Kagome joined the spectators.
Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices in my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me shall I give in
Upon my end shall I begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for I rise to meet the end.
Jo began scribbling on the board furiously. She knew what the problem was..."I got it! Someone activated the gate in Yusuke's reality, and created a tear to cause the two to bleed together like they did. Kagome accidentally dialed our gate, and since there was a tear, they got caught in it."
O'Neal looked skeptical. "A tear?" Jo nodded. Carted did as well. "It is conceivable. I mean, stranger things have happened."
The general gave Carter a funny look. "Name one."
Jo spoke up. "Well, there was the time we all switched bodies, the time you got old, the time you got younger, the time..."
"OK!" O'Neal interrupted her. "I get it."
The spectators exchanged glances. "You've switched bodies?" Kagome asked. Jo nodded. "Yep. I wound up in Daniel's body. I made sure to look at his..." Daniel clamped a hand over her mouth. "Ok that's enough Jo." He did not release her right away, but her devilish look was hard to miss.
Miroku spoke for everyone. "I think that things are going to get interesting...."
The General gave Jo the now what look. "So, how do we get them back where they belong?" Jo looked a bit - apprehensive. "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Jo nodded. "What has happened is kind of - strange, and hard to do - unless you know exactly what you are doing. This tear blended alternate realities. We have seen this before, and we fixed the problem by accident." Kurama blinked. "You have?" The red head sounded very skeptical. It sounded like a long shot. Jo nodded again. "Yes - in that reality, the General and Col. Carter were - married. Daniel was dead, and I was a delinquent." Carter and O'Neal looked quite uncomfortable at the moment.
Hiei spoke harshly. "Baka, are you saying that we're from different realities? That what exists here does not exist elsewhere?" His fiery gaze burned her, and she looked away quickly. "I am saying that what is reality here is different there. I may exist in your reality, and you in mine, but these would not be the same people, per se."
Kuwabara spoke up. "Yeah, so while Hiei is a jerk in our world, he may be a pansy in this one?" Hiei spoke softly. "I will kill you, Kazuma..." His words held a deadly warning. Jo spoke quickly. "No one is killing anyone here. But yes, something to that effect."
O'Neal slapped his hands together. "Ok! So, you REALLY have your work cut out for you." Carter, Daniel, and Jo nodded, looking rather overwhelmed. "Indeed." Tealc's signature response.
"Ok, then. Let's eat - then work!" Jo started to argue a bit with the General's order. He looked at her, raising an eyebrow. "That's an order..." Jo snapped to attention, obeying perfectly from that point.
Inuyasha snorted as the group followed the officers to the mess hall. "I'm assuming she's his bitch." Yusuke laughed. "No - he's just her commanding officer. You get in trouble for not obeying here." Inuyasha snorted again. "Whatever. Too bad Kagome doesn't listen to me like that..."
"Sit boy!" WHAM! "Damn it!"
Hiei watched the exchange in silence before speaking. "Believe it or not, it's a desirable trait to find in a female."
"What's that?" Sango asked. Yusuke, Hiei, Miroku and Inuyasha spoke at the same time. "Submission!"
Ok. There's chapter 2. Things will get more clear as the chapters progress. Please read and review.
