The Sun streams through the window waking Mike up. As he gets his robotic arm out of sleep mode he sees that his gravity wave monitoring program picked up a very strong spike of energy while he was asleep. "Uhh... Guys, did anyone see any portals opening within like 3 meters of this couch last night?"

"You do you, I wouldn't complain though." says Mars, getting up and getting dressed. He had previously been wearing a pressure suit under his clothing but he decided against putting it back on since he was on a habitable world and all.


~Meanwhile, at the crash site~

The alternate Mike wakes up in a medical bed. "What happened? Where am I?" he asks, and a doctor sitting next to him answers without even looking up from his computer "Your shuttle crashed and you barely survived." Mike tries to sit up but his right arm felt like it just passed through the bed causing him to almost fall off, when he looks at his arm to investigate he finds that it is gone, cut off just below the elbow with fresh stitches in it and a few metallic bits sticking out. The doctor looks up, "Your arm was trapped trapped pretty well under a pile of debris, I have already taken the liberty of putting your nerve endings in a digital converter circuit and screwing a prosthetic arm mount onto the bone. We have a generic adjustable robotic arm on the shelf next to you, just use that until you can get a proper custom one."

Mike picks up the prosthetic and snaps it into the mount and adjusts it to the right length, it powers up and he wiggles around his new metallic fingers as he stares at them. He comments "You know, my doppelganger lost an arm in a spaceplane crash too. I wouldn't say I'm a man who believes in destiny but maybe we aren't as different as I thought."

~Flashback, Mars~

A police officer wearing a standard United Martian Colonies cop uniform knocked on the door of Jay's apartment with 14 year old Jay standing next to him. Jay's dad answers. "Are you Rick Cornell?" asks the officer to which Jay's dad responds "Yes, what's going on?" The officer continues, "We caught your son Jason shoplifting a set of tools from the MegaWatt hardware store in the local industrial dome. We are letting him off with a warning but if this ever happens again then there will be a fine and it will go on his record. I trust you can take it from here."

As the cop walks off his dad says "Is this true?" and Jay responds "I was going to pay them back, I just needed to open this locked box that I found that might have something valuable in it." His dad replies "Were you really? And what locked box?" Jay runs to his room and comes back with a metal box with a few black burnt spots on it. "Where did you get that?" asks his dad, to which he replies "I found it in the ruins of an old pressurized rover next to the small crater a few kilometers south of the spaceport." His dad sternly says "What have I told you about going through old war ruins alone? It's dangerous, especially on foot where you have nowhere to go if your helmet gets a crack in it. I am going to have to confiscate your pressure suit for a week for this, maybe more depending on your behavior."

As Jay went to his room his dad looked over at an old family photo on the wall with Jay's mom in it and whispers "If only you were still here, you were always the better parent, you would know just what to do..."

(Bump? I'm still waiting until people are outside to join in.)

Mars comes into the living room and when Mike sees him he says "I swear something is different about you... Oh, you aren't wearing that pressure suit under your clothing any more. But you aren't supposed to wear anything under that type of pressure suit and you were in the same room as Ki the whole time... You know what, I don't even want to know what happened."

Mars didn't pay too much attention and instead had his eyes fixed on the window. When he first landed it had been dark already but outside he saw the Sun rising over a distant mountain. He ran out the door and looked at the clouds being illuminated red by the sunrise against the blue sky while pidgeys chirped in the distance. He stared in awe at it and said "This planet is beautiful!"

Suddenly a Pokemon cry could be heard from overhead: "Baaaaaa-gon!" A Bagon leapt from the roof of the building, falling headfirst to the ground amid a shower of torn leaves. It hit the ground, shook itself, and brushed the remaining leaf fragments and the tree sap it had used as glue from its arms.

Lilli was already sitting at the table. They had a giant leather-bound tome which had to be about two or three thousand pages long. It had to be quite old.

Next to it they had a journal open, which they were quite concentrated on writing in. Lilli tapped the pencil against their forehead. "But what if the cave network was supposed to be a safehouse? Like some kind of underground library?"

They looked up at Mars as he came in. "Ah. Good morning, Mr. Mars."

When Lilli greeted Mars he was so preoccupied with the sunrise that he didn't even take notice.

Mars approaches the Bagon and says "What in the-... This is certainly not like anything I have heard of from Earth." Is it venomous? he wonders.

"Ba? Bagon?" said Bagon, eying Mars curiously in return. It cautiously took a few steps toward him.

Mars says "Do you want food or something? I don't have any with me but there is probably some inside. I was told that animals here are generally more intelligent then ones on Earth, can you even understand me?"

~~~

Mike curiously listens to what Lilli was saying while writing in the journal and asks "What are you up to? It sounds quite interesting."

Bagon nodded and followed Mars inside.

(I assume we're going inside? Sorry, I'm afraid of messing something up.)

The night before, when the ship crashed, Guinan had looked out the window and seen the ship. She thought about asking the others to investigate, but then she thought better of it. Maybe the adults of this world should deal with it, and not Lychee's birthday party guests, she reasoned. Her pokemon came out of the pokeballs curiously, but their interest only lasted a moment.

Guinan tossed and turned some during the night so that when some of the others woke up around sunrise, she slept through the noise.

(School sucks blegh, have no idea what's happening)

Luke walked off, bored off her mind. Nothing was good around here anyway. People gently moved out of her way, as she grumbled slightly. She wished she could be something cooler, like a space pirate or something. She walked down the sidewalk until she noticed a person in the distance. She couldn't really see, as it got closer.

It was.....

(Someone put someone here if they like. Sorry for not coming to this thread often.)

... the alternate evil Mike from the orbital gunship. He stood out because he was being followed by 4 soldiers with rifles on their backs and wearing compact armored exosuits with the solar alliance logo. The group is walking from the location of the recent ship crash towards a seemingly ordinary apartment.

~~~

When Mars walks back into the apartment Mike says "So clearly you and Ki are a thing. Do you happen to have any plans about how you will sustain a relationship where you don't even live in the same universe?" and Mars replies "I don't know, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it." Mike looks over at Mars when he notices the Bagon following him. "What is that?" he asks, and Mars replies "No idea, it was just following me. All the animals in Victoria Colony were domestic so I don't know how to deal with wild ones..."

Luke jumped, noticing the man flanked by the four strangely-dressed soldiers. ''Hey, wassup!'' She yelled, waving her right hand frantically. She wanted to meet these weird people. Maybe they were as weird as her?
