Scott, Seeker, and others are about to leave in an attempt at smuggling
the (infamous) Scott from the rickety, nonfunctional html story game
called "Addventuer: Game 3" into the vital and functional game
of "Neverending Quest" when a golden doorway appears out of nowhere and a
human figure steps through.
It's a young man of Oriental descent, who looks rather surprised as his eyes fall upon the one called Scott. Rather, it was Scott.....looking at Scott!
"What?!" the Scott that had been stuck in Room 1 gasps, "Who are you and what are you doing here?!"
"Well, my name is Scott Chen," the other says, "And I'm trying to save the land of Xanth from utter destruction. I...don't have any memories of something like this happening before.....so I guess that you must be a future version of me?"
"Huh?" Scott says in his usual, intelligent manner. "I always opted o let those magical worlds go hang. I'm out for myself and to have fun!!"
A look slowly congeals on the other Scott's face.
The other nods, and a slight trace of utter disgust crosses his features.
"Oh, a ‘me' in one of those phases, eh?" he mutters to himself. "Another selfish bastard. Pity."
Seeker and the others look at the other in surprise. This other Scott seems....different.
"You're on a quest?" Seeker asks, intrigued and wanting more information, "Tell us about it. Should prove interesting."
The other Scott give them a dubious look, wondering if he should even bother with them. He then shrugs and decides that perhaps this could help.
Leave no stone unturned when lives are at stake....that's the phrase for the day, he says to himself.
