Hey guys! It's been a while again (more than two weeks). I've been busy starting to prepare for my exams and other stories. But now I'm back! Where was I? Oh, right, Oliver and other Bridget meet each other. It's about time you know how this continues, right? So, before you learn what happens next, here are my responses to your reviews:

LabRatsWhore: Thanks for reviewing! You know, that's exactly one of the reasons why Kaz wants to leave: they're the doppelgangers, so everyone will think they're evil. And yes, Bridget. Couldn't leave Oliver's mom out of it. Glad to know your ankle's doing better.

TKDP: You never know what you can expect. Who knows, maybe other Alan feels bad about being a semi-good person. Anything is possible! I hope you'll like this chapter and don't worry - we'll learn more about this place and its inhabitants in the next few chapters. Thanks for reviewing!

Shadow-wolf78: Thanks for reviewing! I know; I just had to include her into the story, for reasons you'll get to know later. I know, right? As long as he doesn't try to mess it up again, I'm happy. (Did you see episode 7? It was awesome!)

PurpleNicole531: You're in luck, because we can see how they react to one another right away. For the leader, I was considering Black Falcon and the Annihilator, among others, but eventually I found the only right pick would be Megahertz. Them staying a little longer all depends on whether Oliver can convince Kaz to stay. Or if he will, with Bridget having walked in the room just now. I guess you'll have to read to find out. Thanks for reviewing!

Enjoy!

Both stood still, unable to move or speak for a certain amount of time. Megahertz watched them stare at each other and decided to wait until they were ready. Kaz recovered rather quickly, too, finding it weird how fast he could get over the fact that the people he knows as evil are the heroes here. Oliver and Bridget, on the other hand, needed more time to recover from the initial shock. They both stood still, in front of each other, not evil.

Eventually, Oliver couldn't bare the silence anymore. He took a step forward. "Mom?" he said, knowing fully well that this was his mother's doppelganger – though at that moment, he didn't care about that.

Bridget seemed to think the same way. "Oliver?" she said, "Is that really…" she trailed off, fearing – knowing – the answer she'd get wouldn't be what she was expecting.

Oliver shook his head. "I'm not… you're not…" He too had a hard time voicing his thoughts, even if it wasn't really necessary. As long as they understood each other, they didn't have to finish their sentences.

"I figured," Bridget said. She sighed. "I just hoped…"

"I know," Oliver said, nodding. "I don't…"

"Yeah," Bridget said. "It is…"

"True," Oliver said, "So hard."

Kaz looked at his friends and the good Bridget with a confused expression on his face. He was amazed that even across dimensions, a mother and son could understand what the other meant without using full sentences. After Oliver's last words, the silence returned to the room.

Megahertz was about to ask Bridget what brought her here at this hour, but then he saw the smile on her face. He left them in peace a little longer. In the meantime, mother and son couldn't stand to just stare at one another anymore. They began to smile, feeling what would happen next.

"Oliver!"

"Mom!" They hugged one another, smile on their faces. For both, it had been so long since they last held each other, since they last hugged each other. It felt so good. Tears appeared in Bridget's eyes and Oliver seemed to be on the verge of joining her. He didn't – no, he couldn't cry at this moment. He figured he was just happy to see his mother from another dimension was helping the heroes.

"I'm glad you're okay," she eventually said, voice shaking. Oliver nodded, still holding onto her.

"I'm glad to see you again." He was glad to see the Bridget he remembered from his past, the mother who would always be there for her son, no matter what. It felt good seeing her without a lust to take over the world and be overprotective of her son. He was happy that she was still normal and couldn't see her calling herself 'Mr. Terror' in this world.

"Bridget?" Megahertz thought this was a good time to interrupt them. If he didn't do it here and now, he wouldn't manage to do it today. She did sound quite in a hurry. "What do I need to know?"

"Right," she said, she stepped away from her son and wiped her tears, then cleared her throat. "I've got the designs of the new defense systems with me. Just give me a moment." She sat on her knees and started collecting the papers she'd dropped.

Oliver didn't hesitate. "I'll help."

"Thanks." Oliver soon sat on his knees as well and in a short time span, they had gathered all the papers. Oliver gave the ones he collected at Bridget, who placed them in the right order again before handing them over to Megahertz.

The leader nodded. "I'll take a look at them as soon as possible." Then, he turned his back to them to do some work. Kaz, Oliver and Bridget interpreted this the right way and left his 'office'. They did stay in the corridor leading to it, since Bridget and Oliver stopped in the middle of it and Kaz didn't want to continue walking on his own.

"So…" Bridget began speaking, "you're not evil." Oliver nodded.

"No, I'm not," he said, "Neither are you."

"So I'm evil where you're from," she then said. She looked at Oliver with a worried expression on her face. "Did I ever hurt you?"

"Never physically," Oliver said, thinking back at all the times he considered himself an emotional wreck because of her. "And me?"

"Not yet," Bridget said, "But he's coming for me." Silence fell. Neither of them knew how to continue this conversation – it became a bit awkward, to say the least – so Kaz took his chance to say something, too.

"Oliver?" he said, "I don't want to interrupt, but we've got to go home." Oliver looked at his best friend, bewildered by the words he'd said.

"Kaz, we can't leave," Oliver said.

"No," Kaz said, "you can't leave. No offense, but she's not your mother."

"That's right!" Kaz, Oliver and Bridget looked around, trying to find the person who spoke. Eventually, they did find him – inside a screen on the wall. Wi-Fi had joined in the conversation. He looked quite nervous, not even a fake smile on his face. "You're not related." He disappeared briefly, but reappeared soon enough. "Oh," he added, "and yes, do worry about the cold!" He emphasized every word of it, sounding just as nervous as he looked.

"That was weird," Kaz said, frowning. Oliver didn't think about the cyberhero – he could do that at a later time. Right now, there was a friend that needed to be convinced.

"I can't go," Oliver said, "we can't go. They need our help."

"Really?" Kaz said, "Because it looks like they're managing quite well." There was a short pause between the two, one Bridget dared not disrupt, hoping the boys would fill it again eventually. Kaz then sighed. "Oliver, do you want to say because she's a good person?"

Oliver watched Kaz point at Bridget. He opened his mouth to answer the question. "I… I, er…" He soon found out he had to close it again. What was the point in giving the answer anyway? Kaz already knew what he meant to say.

"Thought so," Kaz said. "Now let's go." He took the wormhole generator and stood a little closer to Oliver, while Bridget stepped away from them. She would stay until they'd left. Before Kaz could press the button, Oliver stopped him.

"Kaz, wait," he said, taking a big step away from him. Fortunately, Kaz did wait and did not drag him back to their own world. "Okay, yes. I do want to stay because of mom. But I do really want to help them, too."

Kaz groaned. "Oliver…" he didn't say anything else, giving Oliver the room to continue talking.

"We don't know how many heroes are dead and who's converted. We don't know how many heroes there are here. Sure, they blew up the hospital and villains died, but there will be more. They can attack, they can retaliate and come here. If they do come here, they'll need all the help they can get." Once he was done talking, Kaz sighed – not because Oliver was trying to make a point, but more one out of defeat. He placed his hand on Oliver's shoulder.

"But we're not that good at controlling our powers," he said. As if he was trying to say he did want to help, but that they didn't have the means to do so.

"Then we help them another way," Oliver said, "Kaz, they burned Kenny – your doppelganger hurt him. What makes you think their followers won't come to get revenge for destroying the hospital again?" Kaz was about to answer that nothing made him think that when Megahertz turned around the corner.

"We still can use some help," the leader said. This showed the three he either was listening or they had been talking too loud.

Now, with a bit of pressure from Oliver and Megahertz, Kaz eventually gave in. He nodded. "Fine," he said, "We'll stay. But we're gone after two days if nothing happens. Deal?"

"Deal," Oliver said, nodding, promising they would leave this crazy world behind after two days of inactivity. But a lot can happen in two days. He'd do everything he could to help protect them from their doppelgangers, teach them how to defeat Cryo and Firefly. He would do so much before he had to go back.

"While we're at it," Kaz then said, "why don't we invite Skylar to come over here to help us fight the villains?" He had said it sarcastically, though somewhere deep down wanted to see her again, too. Yet, Megahertz shook his head.

"Oh, that's a bad idea," he said.

"Why?" Oliver asked.

"Do you want her to die?" the leader asked.

"No," Kaz and Oliver simultaneously said. They had to live through it once, neither of them wanted to live through it a second time. The tone Megahertz had used worried them a lot.

"Then you let her stay where she belongs," he said, "Everyone in here hates her more than you realize. If you bring her here, I can't protect her. There are quite some heroes here who would break their oaths to see her dead." Kaz and Oliver were reminded of the Annihilator's outburst and didn't want to think about what might've happened if Wi-Fi wasn't there. They thought about what he could do to Skylar if she came here.

"So no Skylar Storm," Kaz said, "Noted."

"Okay, then," Megahertz said, "Thank you for staying. Bridget, can you show these boys where they can help?"

Bridget nodded. She lead them away from Megahertz's office, showing them the most important places of the heroes' base. She showed them places Kaz and Oliver never came and never read about. As if they built an entire new section to it when they started to use it, even if those parts were as old as the rest of the power plant. Kaz immediately asked where the infirmary was, and so Bridget told him how to get there. Oliver stayed with her as they walked to her own office. And Oliver shivered – if he didn't know any better, he'd say the temperature had dropped a few grades since he left the room where they spent the night.
