Every world was getting weirder. First the forest, and the alien monsters. Then Christmas Town.
Emma pursed her lips a little. Santa had given her her wish... but it was bittersweet. The E-Men were gone. Again. Forever.
She looked around. And now this. It was another forest, but this one wasn't at all like the first. Weird dangerous alien planet had reminded her of an R-rated Endor from the first stupid Star Wars movie. This was more like someone had cranked up the color saturation to 11 or 12, and the rest of the sensory settings with it, too.
Emma had never felt, seen, heard or smelled anything like it.
Even her hesitant "Hello?" sounded like the high note of a soprano in her prime. Hayley Westenra or Hannah Abernathy (did they have her on other dimensions?), something like that.
"Hello?" Emma called out again, as much to hear herself as anything else.
