Welcome to Another Dimension part 2:
Another Dimension is the creation of Youtube-users Hoel Yvert and AP274. Please consider this fanwork.
The building was three levels tall and made out of beige brickwork. The light from the sundown came from behind, so the building bathed in shadow. Huge gray clouds covered the sky like a blanket. It was a bad day.
After her confrontation with Another Dimension Shizuka had sent her photo to the police who had been able to track Virus. Shizuka had been thanked for her service and told that the situation was under control, but after letting Mirino end up in this danger she was not going to let the policemen confront Virus T alone.
Mello had sent a Bloody Sunday up the fire escape in order to contact Mirino who was probably in the apartment. The plan was to follow the police from behind when they went to attack.
The police made some hand signals and rushed into the building. Shizuka turned invisible and started running with them, brimming with a need to beat the shit out of AD and redeem herself to Mirino.
She and the police ran up to the third level, and the leader of the operation stepped forward. He was a tall, broad-shouldered man with a handlebar mustache and a loud, stern voice. He knocked on the door. "This is the police and we…"
The door smashed open and exploded into a million pieces. The police officer fell to the ground, unconscious. A huge anvil had somehow been thrown into the door, despite being impossible to lift. One of the policemen misread this as a gunshot and opened fire into the apartment. Shizuka turned a part of the wall invisible so that she could peek in.
Another Dimensions hand reached out from behind a corner, slapped the bullet, and turned it 2D on the wall. The policemen rushed into the apartment, splitting up to search individual rooms. Shizuka followed them carefully.
She felt a bee sting her neck, and looked down to see a Bloody Sunday. "I have searched the entire apartment upside and down, and I haven't noticed a thing. I have no idea where he could be, so I'm guessing that he has escaped." said Mello through Sunday. "Goddamnit! Send out more Sundays through the building, he might still be around here. I will look for some more clues." answered Shizuka. Bloody Sunday nodded and jumped down from her.
After the conversation ended Shizuka turned around and walked into the bedroom. She sneaked around carefully in order to not make the wooden floor creak. The room was a mess, with the color on the wall peeling away and clothes strewn about haphazardly.
Shizuka tiptoed carefully in order to not make the wooden floor creak and scare the cops, and went over to the bed to check under the covers.
When she did, she noticed just in time Another Dimension appeared from behind the color on the wall, dragging Mirino behind him. AD leaped out towards Shizuka, but Achtung caught him just in time. The two of them pushed for control, until AD screamed "Mirino, attack!" The covers were controlled by hidden Weezers and jumped up towards Shizuka, grappling her and throwing her to the side. AD prepared to finish his attack, but was hindered by a hidden Bloody Sunday, charged with the pain of electrocution, in Shizukas shoe.
She wrestled around with the covers on the floor, before using an extra burst of Achtungs power to rip them into pieces. After collecting herself she caught a glimpse of Another Dimension disappearing into the hallway. She ran after, but only ran further into AD´s trap. A mass of knives and pots were released into the 3D world from the ceiling. Achtung quickly punched them away.
Shizuka saw a possibility, and started throwing the knives and pots back towards AD.A knife hit him right in the face, cutting the mask open. Another Dimension took cover behind a small TV and forced Mirino to heal the wound.
Shizuka prepared to throw a pot towards AD, but a sudden shock of pain made her fall to her knees. She looked down, searching for what it was, while a ringing sound burned in her skull. It took a few seconds to figure out what had happened. AD had let the bullet that the cop had fired earlier run around the apartment, before turning it 3D when it was heading for Shizuka. The sound of Shizukas scream alerted the other cops, who ran into the living room.
An idea popped up in Shizukas head. An illusion of her appeared in front of the TV. The already shaken and scared cops instinctually opened fire towards the illusion. The bullets flew through it and into the television. It exploded into a million pieces, revealing Another Dimension.
AD got up on the ceiling and started moving towards Mello and the police, maliciously chuckling to himself. Mello threw a nearby vase towards him, but he dodged and responded by pulling out a 2D piece of paper. He started unfolding it, until it was the size of a flag. He then swiped at it with his 3D hand, and a barbell fell out into the 3D world. Mello dodged, but it landed straight on Shizuka.
Mello bent down to lift it off, while AD pulled out and lit a match. He flinged it down the wall and into the floor, where it ignited hidden gas. In just a few seconds a fire blossomed up and forced the police to retreat deeper into the room.
Mello was ready to rush through the fire to help Shizuka, but before he could AD dangled Mirino out from the window. "If you don't want this young boy's blood on your hands, give up the girl." he spoke in a condescending manner.
Mello looked around the room. The cops had completely given up on the operation and were hiding in the corner, Mirino was praying for his life and Shizuka was pushing against the barbell with grim determination. He formulated a plan, and threw a couple of Sundays towards Shizuka, and answered "Okay, I won't help her, just let Mirino go."
AD was a man of his word, so he pulled Mirino back into the apartment and threw him to the floor.
The Bloody Sundays reached Shizuka. "I'm okay, I can do this, just focus on giving the bastard what he deserves" Shizuka said. "I can't leave you to die, it goes against my moral code. I have a plan." answered Mello. "I collected these Sundays when I worked in emergency care. They are all surprising and horrible pains like car crashes or getting shot. My plan is to put you under incredible stress, pushing you so hard you will be able to lift the barbell in spite of your damages, but if it fails, you'll die exper horrible pain." explained Sunday.
Shizuka doubted it for a moment, but then, Mirinos called out for her with every fiber of his body, pleading for his life. "Save me! If there is anything you can do, save me!" It was enough to push her over the edge. "Hit me."
The Bloody Sundays jumped up on her, and she nearly lost consciousness. Constant shocks of sheer misery and horror viciously attacked and spread through her entire body, an unpredictable mess of neverending waves of unbearable, unthinkable pain. Every time Bloody Sunday hit everything took a step closer to darkness, and she felt weaker and weaker, all while the fire was waiting to take her out of her misery.
Mirino screamed for help. In the pain, she grabbed onto his voice, and held onto it with all her ability. Pushing her body to the max she threw the barbell to the side and started running towards Another Dimension.
Another Dimension panicked and dived towards Mirino. A Bloody Sunday jumped up and protected him. "Burn in hell!" screamed AD, jumped into the 2D world, got through the window and out of the apartment.
Shizuka turned the walls invisible to locate a fire extinguisher. She didn't see one, so she turned to Mello and asked "The fire escape?" He responded "In the bedroom." The bedroom had nearly entirely succumbed to the flames. "Fuck! What can we do?" Suddenly, Mirino stood up.
Something about him had changed. Gone was the fear of getting kidnapped and the calm of being surrounded by his comforting classmates. There was only a new emotion, of stoic determination.
"Okay, Mello! You get into the bathroom and start filling the bathtub! Shizuka, before the fire spreads too much you get into the kitchen and start filling the sinks! I'll handle this!" He ordered.
Mello and Shizuka looked into each other's eyes, quickly nodded and went to fulfill his orders. Shizuka ran into the kitchen and put on the sink. The fire got closer and closer, so she also sent a quick emergency message to her SPW-correspondent Joshua. "Help, in trouble, Virus T's apartment." Mello started both the bathtub and the kitchen sink, and also grabbed some wet towels off the floor.
Mirino darted into each room, threw his Weezers into the water, before returning to the living room. He breathed in, concentrated on the bright flames, and then pointed towards it.
Water burst out of both rooms, combating the fire in an intense battle. Mirino managed to open a passage through the fire, and they all got through, including the cops.
When outside in the stairway the police breathed out, before setting out to evacuate the building. Shizuka turned to Mirino. "Jesus fucking christ, i can't believe i pulled you into this. I'll escort you home and arrange with the foundation so you can be at a safe place until this is over."
Mirino turned quiet for a few seconds, before turning to her and saying "Somehow this Hellstrom guy has a way to track us, right? Since he sent Virus after me. Well, both he and Virus pissed me off. There is only one thing that I want to gain in life, and that is enjoyment for me and the people around me. Anyone that tries to rob me off that is on my hitlist.. " After that he ran down the stairs, with Mello and Shizuka right behind him.
They got out into the courtyard, and cautiously looked around. Shizuka created one illusion of herself sneaking around the yard, hoping to attract Virus's attention. But Virus managed to see through the bluff and remained in his hiding.
The fight actually started together with the rainfall. It started with a little trickle, before an entire ocean blasted down towards them. Mirino took the chance and sent out his Weezers, making them jump from drop to drop and search the entire yard.
Only then did Virus attack, firing a gun shot from above. Both Mello and Shizuka dived to the ground, but Mirino stood firm in place. When the bullet was just a few decimeters in front of him, the rainwater on his body coalesced into a huge ball, and catched the bullet. A few more bullets were shot, but they were all easily blocked.
The Weezers found a pretty large, high-tech drone hovering around without someone to control in sight. He quickly understood where Virus T was hiding.
"He is on that drone, and is using it to snipe at us!" he shouted out to his companions. The Weezer's all burst out towards the drone to capture it, but they were skillfully evaded. Shizuka took a gun that she had stolen from the cops out of her pocket and shot towards the drone. Her attack was blocked by thick sheets of iron thrown out from the drone. "If we want to reach him, we have to get up into the air." commented Shizuka, before turning and running back into the building.
Mello followed, but Mirino stayed out in the courtyard. "You're a kid, you should stop listening to Shizuka and just run away!" shouted Mello. "If you run into the building, he will just be given time to escape." responded Mirino. "And that asshole has had it coming for a while."Mirino created masses of Weezers under his feet, and ran up the raindrops into the air.
