Two men run away from a strange figure walking toward them. They look exactly alike.

"SHIT!!! SHIT, SHIT, SHIT!!!" yelled the first man.

"OH, BLAST DAMN IT!!!" yelled the second man, wearing what looks like an Engineer suit. "HE'S COMING!!!"

The first man grabs the second man. He wore a costume of a thief. "SHUT IT!!! WE GOTTA ACTIVATE THAT WARP DEVICE TO GET INTO THE UNIVERSE WE NEED TO GET TO!!! NOW!?!?"

"WHAT UNIVERSE!? WE'VE BEEN IN EVERY UNIVERSE, THIEF!!! WHERE ELSE CAN WE GO!? THE DAMNED INFINITY TRAIN!?!?" yelled the second person.

A very tall man follows after them. He has black armor and a black cape. He sounds like he's breathing in scuba gear.

"WHAT!?!? NO!!! WE HAVE TO GET TO A PLACE THAT HAS ENOUGH DEFENSES TO KEEP THAT GUY OUT!!!" He takes out a hologram picture of the Maharlican flag. "He's wanted there. Let's sign up for a passport..." yelled the Thief. "Let's do it, Engineer."

Later...

Three women giggle while drinking alcohol at the side of a restaurant. 

"WHOA!!!"

Two variants fall on their table.

"You told me that you were gonna use a passport!!!" yelled the Engineer.

"Yeah! It's called lying!" yelled the Thief.

The women are shocked by this.

The two variants stare at the women.

"WHOA!!!" smiled one beautiful woman with narrow eyes and black hair. "ARE YOU TWO FROM AN ALTERNATE DIMENSION!?!?"

"Huh..." said one woman who also has narrow eyes but darker skin and brown hair with a ponytail, with eyes sparkling while she smiles with hope.

"UGH!!!" said the last woman, who was fair-skinned and has blonde hair. "Not again!"

The women slam the door shut while the two variants happily eat chicken and dumplings from Cracker Barrel

The first woman, the dark-skinned woman, checks the blinders.

"What the hell!?" asked the blonde woman. "You still live with your parents!?"

"Uh... Yeah!? It's called being Asian, Sasha. Culture shock! Obvi!" yelled the first woman. "Marcy! Status report!"

"I don't think we're being hunted by the Maharlican government... so... Yeah! We're cool!" smiled Marcy, watching the news channels.

"Good..." said the first woman.

"And who are you who safely kept us safe!" smiled the Engineer.

The Thief punches the Engineer's shoulder. "No personal attachments! Just a place where we can lay low!"
