"FWHIP!!" Gem cried out as she fell backwards, but her brother wasn't fast enough. As she realized this, she tried to at least give him advice for what to do when she went through the portal. "TELL THE OTHERS AN-" she fell.


Falling.

Further...

And further...

Down.

From so high up...

She fell...

And then she landed.
Hard.

Gem screamed all the way down, and only got louder as she got closer to the ground. She realized her elytra wasn't working and started to panic. She didn't know any flight spells, at least not off the top of her head, and she was fumbling through her inventory as she searched for her saving grace.

"FOUND IT!"
*splash*

A bucket. A bucket full of water and another of luck was all she needed. And thank the gods it worked.
"Oww..." Gem slowly got up. "I think I landed on my hooves a little weird." Gem looked around, trying to get her bearings and what she saw amazed her. She was in a bustling metropolis, although she didn't know that. She saw strange buildings that pierced the sky. She was in a park right in the middle of Musutafu, Japan.

"Hey!" Gem whipped around to see a woman with rabbit ears jogging up to her. She seemed to be wearing a leotard of sorts with a crescent moon emblem printed on the breast area. "Hey! Are you alright? I saw you fall out of the sky."
"Oh! I'm okay." Gem tried to stand properly when she winced, "Okay, maybe I landed on my hooves wrong." Gem laughed awkwardly with her hand rubbing the back of her neck.

"Do you want some help getting home then?"

"Uh..."

"What?"

"First of all, you're a stranger."

"Oh. Well I'm the rabbit hero Mirko."

"I'm head wizard of the Crystal Cliffs, Geminitay, but everyone calls me Gem."

"Crystal Cliffs?"

"My empire!"

"Your empire!?"

"Hmm... I suppose this really solidifies my theory..."

"What theory?"

"Another issue in getting home is that I'm almost certain that I'm currently in a different world or dimension... Or at least a different time. A very different time." Gem taps her finger to chin as she further thinks about this.
"I might be able to help... Maybe... Agh- who am I kidding, I have no idea." Mirko throws her hands up in frustration.
"Any help would be appreciated regardless of how many ideas you have. Honestly I have no idea either."
"Hmm... I know someone really smart, and I'm pretty sure he would love to meet you." Mirko suggests.
"Sure! That seems like a good idea." Gem follows Mirko who leads her to a large building called UA. It looked strange to Gem, but then again, she is in a different world.
