A/N: We're back to the alt world folks! And we're visiting new places this time around! :3 That said, I was planning to do a series of one/two shots for some of the popular AUs (yeah Batman Beca and the Hacker one will definitely have about one or two chapters) and upload it as a separate fic next year.
Sound off in the comments on your favorite AU (I'm aiming for about 10-15 chapters – if I have fun with it, I might do more).
Thanks for the continuous support!
I don't own pitch perfect.
-Earth 2, Day 2-
A good day after their first attempt, Beca had stubbornly insisted they try again today.
Stacie argued it might be too much.
But with so much at stake, Beca didn't want to wait too long.
And so back to the alternate realities it was.
Yeah, Beca was all business that morning.
The first time Beca woke up she found herself in a very tight situation.
Apparently she was the world's most reclusive and highly paid assassin.
She was currently on a job.
Well…
…she was on a job.
Targeting a highly influential figure.
Only to fall in love with the daughter of the mark.
After fail-safe assassin's placed around the target had killed the rest of the family in a tragic accident, and after Beca swooped in to save Chloe just in the nick in time, she found herself on the run with the redhead.
But going into hiding was tricky.
Especially now that the man who hired the assassins in the first place happened to be the right hand man of the target all along.
And had recently insinuated that the elusive assassin had kidnapped Chloe for nefarious purposes.
Of course, said right hand man had to be an evil-Jesse possessed… well… Jesse, coming up with a complicated plot in the attempt to save Chloe and be the hero.
And for him to try and persuade that world's Chloe to hate Beca.
Yeah, Beca was definitely worried about her own Chloe with that little tidbit of information.
It would seem that evil-Jesse would try to do anything he can to get what he wants.
Trusting only her network of shadowy pals – aka the Bellas – Beca managed to keep Chloe secure, convince the real Jesse of this world the truth that he was behind the devious plots, she managed to save the day.
The real Jesse of their world admitting to his crimes.
And leaving Beca and Chloe in peace.
Beca made a quick return trip to earth 2, waking up in cold sweat with the realization that her body was feeling exhausted.
The trips were definitely taking a toll on her.
After a quick lunch and long enough break – as deemed by Stacie, Aubrey and Chloe – Beca was back to her alternate universe travels.
And she ended up in a world that was just a little too close to her own.
If she didn't stop the farce she was putting up by convincing herself that Chloe was better off without her.
And if she didn't take the risk of trusting Chloe with her heart.
She woke up in an alternate world where she was just about to marry Jesse.
Seriously.
Beca woke up in that world on the morning of her wedding day.
Apparently, evil Jesse tried to get with Chloe during his bachelor night.
Thankfully, nothing happened. The Bellas literally whooped his ass – with Chloe landing a good punch, and on that note, who knew Chloe could punch real hard? – and once the real Jesse of this world returned to control, he was quite remorseful, asking for Beca's forgiveness.
And Beca forgave him.
Because she just couldn't let go of that security.
She was settling.
Despite wanting to break Jesse apart for even trying to get with Chloe.
Because yeah, the redhead was the only one Beca wanted despite all her efforts of trying to fool herself that that wasn't the case.
But of course Beca didn't know all of this until the actual moment when she was standing in front of Jesse at the altar of the church they were in.
Because she just had to spend the whole morning trying to piece things together while her mom tried to make sure she got ready.
All while her friends were begrudgingly keeping the sorry Treble at bay.
"Ms. Mitchell, we need your response?" the priest asked, snapping Beca back to the reality in front of her.
"What?"
"Do you take this good man here, Jesse Swanson, as your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and…"
"No." Beca quickly spouted out.
"What?" Jesse then asked before launching into a well-rehearsed speech about why Beca would change her mind now, even after forgiving him.
"Because I'm in love with her." was Beca's quick response, pointing to her maid-of-honor, who else but Chloe.
Both Chloe and Jesse looked at her dumbfounded.
Stacie screeched with a 'Yes!'
Amy high-fived CR.
Aubrey said something along the lines of 'Thank God!'
Ashley and Jessica were fangirling…
…along with Emily who was jumping up and down with joy.
Lilly said something indecipherable.
And Flo went off on a tangent with a completely unrelated story of happily-ever-afters.
All while the whole crowd gasped.
And the priest looked at Beca incredulously.
Jesse was about to say something, his parents about to demand an explanation, when Beca did the only logical thing she could think of after declaring her love for Chloe in front of all of her family and friends in a church during her wedding day to Jesse.
She grabbed Chloe by the wrist and ran out of the church, the redhead willingly letting her lead the way.
She hailed a cab, before anyone could go after them, and asked the cab driver to go around the city for a while.
And just as the confused cab driver agreed, both Beca and Chloe burst into fits laughter.
"What took you so long?" was what the Chloe of that world asked.
And Beca shook her head.
Telling Chloe that she wouldn't believe her even if she tried to explain.
"Are you sure about this Becs?" Chloe then asked again just after Beca told the cab driver to get them to some clothing store nearby.
"Chloe, it's the only sure thing I know." Beca replied.
She spent the rest of that day with Chloe, getting on a plane with the redhead to get to some place far away, just to be sure that the Beca of this world won't freak out when she decides to return to earth two.
When Beca woke up back in earth two she didn't feel any pain.
No nosebleeds either.
"Looks like we can try three worlds tomorrow. The readings I'm getting here are showing some major improvements." Stacie said while her assistants helped Beca out of the 'death contraption of a machine' – as Chloe called – that was holding her down.
"You're looking chipper Mitchell." Aubrey noted.
"Not chipper, just hopeful." Beca replied, the thoughts of her own wedding day with her Chloe on her mind.
She knows she'll set things right.
And that they'll get there happily ever after too.
