*Late Evening*
*Heat's Room*

*X-23 slowly awoken to find herself on Heat's bed, slowly realizing Gabby was asleep next to her while Heat was leaning on a nearby wall right over her. X-23 could barely gaze around her surroundings as she seemed somewhat dazed*

Heat: Hey...

*X-23, still dazed, slowly peers over to Heat who was leaning on a nearby wall*

Heat: You know, you two gave us quite the scare.
X-23: Heat? What's going on? Why am I here?
Heat: Well...we heard a knock on our closet and you both just walked out and fainted. We are just as confused as you are.

*X-23 looked over to her side to see Gabby sleeping gracefully. She seemed relieved as Arctic quietly came in the room*

Arctic: Hey, you two get some good rest?
X-23: I guess you could say that.
Arctic: So what brings you two, to us?

*X-23 for a moment pondered to herself and then looked directly to Arctic*

X-23: Honestly, I couldn't tell you. I don't remember anything right now and my slight migraine isn't making it easier to remember.

*Arctic looked at Heat and then quickly back to X-23*

Arctic: Let me guess, you just remember a flashing light?

*X-23 pondered for a moment and then nodded*

X-23: Yeah...the last thing I can remember, before the light, was us being at the apartment.

*Heat shortly chuckled to herself as she glanced over to Arctic*

Heat: Just like us.
Arctic: Something is definitely going on here...or most likely someone is pulling some weird strings.
X-23: Was it like that when you were all brought here?
Arctic: Yeah, we were all at our base back on our own world then...all I can remember was a light and then boom, we're here...
Heat: So...whatever brought us to this world has to be here, right? Like close by in this universe or maybe even closer?
X-23: Were you guys able to get any answers on what was going on? Could it of been an alien, Asgardian, or some super powered hero?

*Arctic and Heat shook their heads as Arctic began to ponder*

Heat: This earth...this place is completely different than ours. There are no Aliens or God...like everything you all know isn't present at all in our world. I guess something or someone must've popped into our universe and then teleported us here but...why us?
Arctic: And why would they bring us here? And in our case and have a barrier over our world?
X-23: Wait...their is a barrier over your world?

*Arctic nodded to her as he stepped to the end of Heat's bed*

Arctic: Well that's what Doctor Strange has been saying to us. It's been nearly two weeks so far and he hasn't been able to even breach the barrier yet. They way it's looking...we're going to be stuck here for quite a long time.

*Heat went over to Arctic and smiled to him while padding his shoulder*

Heat: Well, either way at least were all safe, right?

*X-23 began to get up from the bed as she gazed around Heat's room*

Heat: Uhm?...Before you say anything I am still trying to get my room together.

*X-23 slowly turned to Heat*

X-23: It looks nice, definitely cleaner than mine.
Heat: Awe, thanks. I was thinking of adding some paintings in my room to give it more flare.
