If anyone had been looking into that abandoned warehouse on the waterfront of St. Canard they would have been in for a surprise. A solitary female rat could have been seen. She was walking around a strange looking machine. The machine itself looked something like a cross between an old time reel movie projector, a laser and a mound of Jello. But even stranger were the actions of the female rat. She appeared to be tracing a pentagram onto the ground around the machine. If anyone had been watching and had continued to watch, they would have seen her trace a circle around herself the pentagram and the strange machine.
Meanwhile in another universe, a solitary human female figure could be seen doing exactly the same thing in a clearing in a woods where an old ramshackle looking cabin stood. The human female finished tracing the circle and looked up to the sky which was a foreboding dark and stormy gray. Thunder could be heard rumbling in the distance.
At the very same time as all this was going on Darkwing was chasing the fearsome five through the waterfront warehouse district.
The female rat began to whisper an incantation as she turned on the machine. This was rather a strange thing for her to be doing since she wasn't actually a mage or magick user. But she had dabbled in the dark arts before. She had even tried to get into the mage academy once, but failed the entrance exams due to having been a rather normal rat with less then 1% mage blood in her ancestry. She really really wanted the experiment to work this time.
Meanwhile in the human female's universe, she too had begun to chant, and for the very same reason. She desperately wanted her experiment to work. She however had never applied to any magick academy, since in her Universe magick wasn't even recognized as existing by most people and magick users usually had to teach themselves whatever they knew.
As the 2 females in the 2 different universes began their experiments simultaneously a very strange thing happened. They performed exactly the same ritual movements and said exactly the same words, and in fact their experiments powered up at exactly the same time as each other.
In the 2 universes 2 portals began to open.
All of a sudden in the human female's universe, lightning struck the machine that was opening the portal there. The lightning jumped from the machine to her body then to and through the portal. From the portal it jumped to the Machine in the female rat's universe then to the female rat. This caused the souls of the 2 females to be pulled out of their bodies and to begin to pass through the portals.
As the soul of the human female passed through the portal into the rat's world it somehow got turned around and saw through the portal back into it's own world. The female rat's soul however did not get turned around and passed through the portal without looking back at it's world.
As the human females soul passed through the portal and got turned around it saw the lightning strike it's own body, which charred black and begin to smoke as the lightning hit it. It saw the machine begin to smoke and smolder. Then the machine flashed into flames as it exploded, and the portal closed trapping the human soul in the rat's universe and the rat in hers. Then she was pulled by some unexplained force into the female rat body just as Darkwing chased the fearsome five into the warehouse.
Neither Darkwing nor Launchpad had noticed her or the smoking remains of the portal device. The fearsome five hadn't noticed either as they scattered and fled Darkwing. Nobody had noticed. That was until Megavolt just happened to bump into her and a large spark jumped off the two of them.
"Hey watch it" said Megavolt. "Can't you see I'm trying to escape?"
"Eek! A talking rat! A giant talking rat!" screamed the human female within the rat's body.
"Um are you feeling alright?" asked Megavolt, completely forgetting he had been running from Darkwing Duck.
"This has got to be a dream. That's what it is. Just a dream." said the female human in the female rat's body.
Just then she emitted a spark.
"Hey you sparked!" said Megavolt in surprise.
"Huh? Sparked? What the... What are you talking about? Sparked?" Asked the human in the rat's body.
"You sparked!" Said Megavolt again. "Hey wait a second... Try this! He said as he snapped his fingers which immediately sparked.
Not really sure what was going on and thinking she was dreaming the human female trapped in the rat body decided to go along with Megavolt and snapped her fingers. As she did a spark jumped off them.
"Whoa this is some weird dream" she said.
"Now try this!" Megavolt exclaimed as he pointed his finger and emitted a voltage zap.
Still thinking she was dreaming, the human female trapped in the female rat's body and world copied Megavolt's gesture. As she did her own finger emitted a spark of voltage too.
"Cool!" said Megavolt. "What's you're name?"
"Sandy Day" said the human trapped in the female rat body. "What's yours?"
"I'm Megavolt. Everyone knows me!" said megavolt. Then he looked up at the sky. "Oh oh... We better find some shelter fast, looks like rain" he said.
"Rain?" Sandy asked.
"You don't want to get wet." said Megavolt.
"Why?" asked Sandy.
"Trust me you just don't" said Megavolt.
Suddenly a raindrop landed on Sandy's arm. "Yowtch!" she exclaimed in pain.
"That's why you don't want to get wet" said Megavolt. "Come on lets get out of the rain, fast" , and with that said, the two dashed off to Megavolts car to get out of the rain.
