"Who is that, Edd?" Tord asked staring at Violet the entire time. Instead of Edd answering it was actually Violet who answered.

"Stop fooling around Tord. It's me, your sister, Violet."

Tord laughed curtly "No, I don't think so. I don't have any sisters or brothers for that matter."

"Yes you do, you have two sisters. Myself and Yuki."

"You must have me confused with someone else."

"No I don't, I practically run your dumb, red-"

Tord slapped a hand over her mouth and laughed nervously "Okay that's enough, let me speak to you upstairs." He said while half dragging her to his room. He pulled her arms behind her back and removed the guns from belt, "Now, what do you know."

"About?"

"Don't play dumb now! The army, the Red Army." Tord said in a shouted whisper.

"Oh, that. I am your commander, you made me a commander on the induction day for new recruits. I also train the new recruits, You didn't like the last bunch. You are extremely smart and have made many inventions. My favourite was your teleporter, even though it doesn't work right yet."

"Okay, okay. Stop right there.
"I have another question, How did you get here?"

"Oh, that's an easy one. You had sent me on a mission, I was told to track Edwardo and work out what he was planning. I was tailing him for two days before he actually decided to open a different door with a passcode, I followed him down and he somehow he knew I was there. He was working on a whole bunch of clones that looked like us and our friends. He said I was going to be first and I would be the starter of his scheme, I wasn't going to let that happen so I opened  my Void. I closed it behind me so he couldn't follow me in and that was a bad idea because as you already know my Void isn't exactly stable. So I closed it and tried to remember the destination code home and I struggled for a whil-
"Shit!"

"What? What is it?"

"It all makes sense now. I'm not home! Oh my God, I'm not home!"

"Calm down. What did you do to get here again?"

"I opened a Void, I struggled to open it back up again. I guessed a few random numbers and then it reopened."

"Could you open it again?"

"I could try but I wouldn't be able to hold it for long, I'm practically drained from the last one."

She used what little energy she had left to open her Void before it snapped shut two seconds later. Violet fell to her knees "It's hopeless, I am never getting back. Unless ..."

She pulled a silver rod out of her pocket at flicked her index finger up over the rod, this made a hologram appear. Violet started moving her fingers rapidly over the holographic image while Tord looked in amazement.

"What is that thing?"

"This thing? It's something you made. Something the other you made, I mean, it's a HoloCom. It is used to identify a person and it's also used to send distress signals. I am not too sure how well it will work in this situation though. I am trying to reroute it so that it will send a signal of some sort to my Tord or Yuki. I keep getting blocked by something though... never mind I got it sorted. There, if that worked then they should get it soon. Yuki should be coming to get me soon."

"Okay, that's good at least.
"Are these real?" Tord asked grabbing one of her ears.

"Ouch! Yes they're real! Everything on me is real and you pulling on it hurts."

"Sorry. Umm, how about we go downstairs and get something to eat?" Tord asked handing her guns back to her.

"That sounds good." Violet replied happily as Tord helped her back onto her feet.

Yuki heard beeping on her HoloCom. "I've got a signal!"

"Thank god for that!" Dylan replied.

"Oh shit!"

"What's wrong Yuki."

"She's used her Void."

"How do you know?"

"VIOLET'S IN ANOTHER DIMENSION!" Tord shouted from behind the door.

"That's how I know." Yuki replied. "I'm gonna go get her. Dylan keep an eye on things here 'til I get back."

"Sure, Yuki."

Yuki walked through her White Void and closed it behind her. She opened her HoloCom once again and entered in the destination code, when the Void reopened she seen a small white house with a red roof. She left her Void and watched it close again before walking up to the house, she knocked on the door quickly three times and waited until the door opened.

"Tom, who's at the door?" Edd called.

"It's another one." Tom called back

"Another one of what?"

"D-E-M-O-N"

"I can hear you y'know." Yuki said in annoyed tone "Look, I'm only here for Violet then we'll be on our way."

"Violet? Oh, the purple haired girl! Hang on."

"Edd, she said she was here for Violet!"

"Okay, she coming now!"

Violet appeared at the door with another version of their brother, she hugged him and was about to leave before he stopped her. He gave her a little red stone "To remember me by." He said simply. Violet removed the choker that was around her neck. It had her name on it in purple writing but she had wore it inside out so the name was hidden. 

"Then, you take this." Violet replied before going to meet her sister and then they both went home.
