Chapter 2

Finally Scott opened his eyes, just in time to see a woman with short black hair and blue eyes walk by. Scott looked down at Brains. His head had blood coming out of a crack right above his nose. Scott looked up the only thing he could see was the inside of a barrel.

"Get up slowly. Any sudden movements will cost you dearly. Is this understood, or should I go get a universal translator for your ass." The woman wore a lab coat. Scott didn't know her or wanted to take the chance to get him or worse Brains killed. He nodded.

"What's wrong with your friend there?" She asked. Scott looked down at Brains` pail face again.

"He hit his head on the counter there." Scott said and pointed at the counter. The doctor looked at the counter, which looked like someone took a wet ball, filled it up with red paint, and chunked it at the counter.

"Alright pick him up and follow me to the hospital." Scott didn't argue. As long as Brains was okay, he would follow her to the bottom of the ocean.

"What's his name?" The woman asked scratching words onto a clipboard. The woman walked as if she were in the army. Back straight, chin up, right foot first, and very fast.

"Brains.Oh and my names Scott." He answered.

Scott noticed that he went down a hall that shouldn't have been there before. Scott shook his head. Perhaps he hadn't woke up yet.

Finally he and the woman passed through a door. She pointed to a table; Scott put Brains down on it.

"Keep your ass in that chair there. While I get the doctor." She said Scott sighed with frustration.

"Damn doctors take to long. Hey what's your name?" Scott asked. The woman barred her teeth. It was clear to Scott she didn't like to be bothered while in the middle of doing something.

"Queenie now shut up and leave me alone." She left the room.

"Brains I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

Gordon came walking into the lab. Dinner was about ready. Brains always needed warning or he would tend to forget about food at all.

A glint caught Gordon's eye. He spotted the meteor crystal and picked it up.

"Now Brainsy what would ya be doing with something like this?" Gordon said to himself. He walked out of the lab and walked into the lounge. No one was there. Splashing came from the pool. Gordon walked out onto the balcony and waved down to John and Virgil.

A delightful breeze washed over Gordon. He breathed it all in. The crystal once again began to glow. Gordon looked at it and dropped it to the ground. The ground about him began to shake he fall backward and watched the world go round and round. It stopped spinning and the moon began to go from full to half quarter, to new moon to half quarter again, and then full again. In less then a second. Then it stopped. Gordon shakily stood up and leaned on the banister. There were five people in the pool now. All of which he never seen before. One however caught his eye.because it looked just like him.
