Lincoln opened a portal to the dimension R-015, where the Earth is a huge boombox that constantly plays some annoying music, with other sound-related objects as satellites.
- Dude, this beat is so catchy it hurts! - Lincoln screamed, covering his ears.
- Yeah, this planet is so loud that even Noice-B-Gone won't help. - Lisa confirmed. - That's why i brought you this noice-cancelling suit, which protects from notices ranging from 200 decibels and higher.
Lincoln stepped in with hesitation, ending up on an island.
- According to the map, we are in Sunda Strait, Indonesia, or more precisely, Sumatra. - Lisa started explaining. - This is the location where the Krakatoa volcano exploded.
- Why would a version of me hide in here? - Lincoln asked.
- That we have to find out, brother. Right now we have to avoid any source of sound, high or low, because Einstein knows what could happen to our ear canals.
As they walked through the island, a plane passed by, which was almost near the ground.
- Jet planes' decibel level is roughly between 120 and 140, so it's lucky we happen to have suits on.
- It's lucky the plane didn't hit us. I mean, who would fly a plane this close to the ground? - Lincoln asked.
- I have no idea. Maybe this is how this universe works.
They walked by for some time, being startled by weird objects that play loud sounds.
- Wow. They try really hard to deafen us. - Lisa laughed. - Although, this might work, because this suit runs on battery, and with every decibel, it becomes lower and lower. Now it's at 30%, so try to avoid any source of sound.
- That's what i'm doing, brainiac!!! - Lincoln screamed. - I'm trying and trying to avoid getting my ears punctured, and what do you do?! Just sit in your room speaking to me through this flying metal box?! Send some help, goddamn it!
- No can do, Lincoln. It's too dangerous out there, and you are the perfect match for multiversal travel.
- Why couldn't you pick a more confident version of me?! I mean, you're a genius, a cocky genius, sure, but still smart enough to send someone more useful than me! Do you just want to see me suffer?! I suffered for long enough, sis, LONG ENOUGH!!!
- Hey, look, a boat!
Lincoln stopped his angry rambling and turned to the coast, where an old boat was standing.
-We should get to this universe's Lincoln before he destroys everything! Quick, get on!
- It's not like I don't know what to do, Lisa…
They get on a boat and swim towards the island, where the alternate Lincoln was hosting a concert.
- Let's rock, people! It's just several minutes before the big culmination!
Lisa and Lincoln noticed that Krakatoa had smoke coming out of it.
- Krakatoa's eruption in 1883 is reported to be the loudest sound ever on Earth. It's unknown how loud it was, but it spread within the 10-mile radius, destroying and killing everyone! The last recorded eruption was in April of 2020, and now it's going to erupt again…
The volcano started to release more smoke, and the ground began to shake, indicating the upcoming eruption.
- Feel the ground shaking? It means that we have a few second before the big event! - the alternate Lincoln shouted. - Now, count with me! In 10… 9…
- Lisa, we gotta get out of here!!! - Lincoln screamed, searching for his teleportation device. - Where's that stupid thing…
- 7… 6…
- Come on, where is it!!!
- 4… 3…
- Oh, there it is!
- 1…
- The volcano erupted, quickly dropping Lincoln's suit's battery down.
- MY EARS!!! - Lincoln screamed, desperately trying to cover his ears. - WHY DID I STAND SO CLOSE TO THE VOLCANO?!!!
Lincoln randomly made a portal, falling into it, leaving people on the island drowning in lava.
