"It wasn't easy," Dr Vincent says. "But eventually I managed it. The co- ordinates refer to five different analogue worlds of Terra Prime, and the locations within those worlds are also very different. You see..." But at that point Astra 9, knowing that time is ticking away, cuts off Dr Vincent as gently as she can. "We'd love to hear all about it later on," she says, "but we really must be on our way." Soon the group, plus Dragon Synizn, are using Dr Vincent's teleportation device to take them to the location corresponding to - they hope - the first set of co-ordinates.
Dr. Vincent, shrugging, sets the co-ordinates to the first on the list, and the group appears......near where their first target appeared.
They all pause in consternation as the see their surroundings. First, this is the right world, but Dr. Vincent's translations were a little off....maybe....or something about this world through it off.....for it's an odd world indeed! See, Dr. Vincent didn't tell just how different this analogous world was!
First, now, for the reader's benefit, let's turn back the clock a bit to explain just what the story is behind the scene they see before them on the street they appeared on..... See, while this isn't the one they were after, it concerns.....somebody who'd been named Fred......
This is for the reader's benifit....and by some perverse twist of fate......is known by the Champion's target....who's trying to fight off the first nibblings of his developing dark side that his unseelie part is beginning to.....just......whisper. See, this is to be the accursed non-Champion's first victim......and Thessamar ix'latl, who's now far away from the river that fed the bay that her intended victim was on, is somewhat disgusted and appalled by it all.....
(Author's Note: From episodes: 7026 by Mr Nice Guy, 8173 by Karen Ford, 13701 by Bill L., and 13918 by Karen Ford) Fred crawled off the pile of pillows that had cushioned his landing a few moments earlier and eyed the wardrobe. Something about it seemed strange to him. He felt compelled to open it. Fearfully, he tried to rationalize his actions as he approached the piece of furniture, "I'll see if they have anything more manly to wear," he told himself, although he doubted that that would be the case. He opened the door and looked inside. It was huge! There was no back to it that he could see, and outfits to the horizon! The problem was, there were none for men, all women's. Suddenly he felt a push from behind as he was thrown into the wardrobe, and the doors were shut behind him. The room was still lit, but he could not see the source of the light. "Choose!" a booming voice declared to him. Looking around, he decided to go for the... Bikini - it does get a little hot in the caves sometimes. Fred picks the bikini from the rack, it is a shimmering silver colour like his armour was, and decides that it will cover just enough of her new body as is required, while not making her too hot in the caves. Slipping the newly required breasts into the cups takes a bit of technique, which as a knight he doen't really possess, but he copes surprisingly well. The briefs are a very brief pair, which just cover her newly female crotch. As they are pulled into place the whole location seems to spin around, and when it stops, Fred finds herself . . . On a sandy beach, on a hot summers day Fred blinked, then grinned. She was standing at the edge of a moderately populous beach. The temperature was in the mid-80's, the sun was bright and glorious, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the water was a bright blue, with gentle whitecaps breaking along the shoreline. All in all, a perfect day for going to the beach. "Fuh-REDdi!" came a voice next to her. "Like, HelLO! Earth to Freddi!" "Huh?" "Like, you were TO-tally flaking out, Freddi! Are you all, like, okay and stuff?" Fred blinked in confusion - then suddenly giggled. "Ohmigod, I am, like, SOOOO sorry!," Freddi squealed to her best friend, Josie. "I was, y'know, just thinking about all the rays I can, y'know, soak up and stuff!" Josie smiled knowingly back. "Uh-huh. And about how many hotties you can, like, attract with that bombin' new swimsuit!" "JO-sie!!!" "It's like, a THONG, th-thong-thong-thong-THONG!" Josie sang teasingly. "You are SOOO bad!" Freddi laughed. The two girls, squealing and giggling, set off to find a spot to work on their tans. Freddi and Josie had a great time that day. They both got a golden brown tan, and they managed to pick up a couple of guys, named Pablo and Tony, in the bargain. After the sun went down, their new dates took them to a local club, The Hungry Dragon. Freddi, a knockout in her shorts and tank top, had a blast dancing with Tony. Later, Josie drove off with Pablo, and Tony offered to take Freddi home. Reveling in the cool night air, and feeling mellow after a couple of bourbons at the Dragon, Freddi snuggled against Tony in his convertable. When they arrived at her apartment, Freddi enticingly planted a long, slow kiss on Tony and whispered, "So, do you wanna, y'know, like, come inside?" Tony smiled at her and said: "Behold the might Lord Fred - reduced to nothing more than a common trollop!" Freddi was confused by Tony's remark. She knew that they had had a mighty night together, so why had he called her a bimbo. THWACK She struck a mighty slap across his cheek. "Don't you ever call me a bimbo again" she yelled at Tony. She then ran off, tears running down her cheeks. Tony chased after Freddi
For a brief moment, intended victim and the dark curse ofThessamar ix'latl (a malignant creature in it's own right) briefly.....touch.....and Freddi gasps in horror as she sense only the monsterous.....thing that wants her.....
"Come here, you b**ch!" Tony shouts, enraged, grabbing her. "I'm not done with you!!"
