"You gentlemen get kidnapped often enough for it to be annoying?" Sean asked, chuckling. "Maybe this won't seem as weird after all and we can make this quick, then. That would be nice. But, I guess I shouldn't jinx it, huh? Give it a minute and you guys won't feel so woozy. That after taste is a joy, isn't it? My least favorite part. Babe? You want to float them those water bottles? Water helps." And while G had his precautions, Sean had his niceties and casual demonstrations. G would have killed him for using nice sealed glass bottles they could in turn use as a weapon. So, they had to make do with the cheap plastic ones so thin you squeezed wrong while opening it and you wound up wearing half the contents. But, it would help flush the tranquilizer out of their systems if they deigned to drink it.
"This never sounds believable no matter how many times we say it, so I'll skip straight to the point."
G snorted.
Sean ignored him.
"Welcome to the bottom of the rabbit hole, gentlemen. When you woke up this morning you were having just another day and now you've landed yourself in another dimension. Just think of me as your Morpheus. Here's the short version. Government experiment goes horribly wrong and creates rifts between dimensions that open at random and you don't know you've stepped through it until it's too late to do anything about it. We've all been there, done that, and the t-shirt wasn't worth it. Unfortunately, as these things do seem to go, the government's not copping to what they did and, instead, they're hunting down the people who come through. First, there's some version of you in this world and they're pretty tired of having to explain disappearances and your counterpart probably didn't have the same life or know the same people. So, your best hope would be the nut house, probably. Second, there was a nifty little side effect of coming through these rifts that wasn't foreseen. Seems comic book dreams can come true because we all get a super power."
Grinning, Sean flicked his hand to conjure a small lightning ball in his palm, then released it to crackle in the air in front of him before dispersing the electricity harmlessly. "Any guesses how enthusiastic said government is about letting people with super powers run around unchecked? Give you three and the first two don't count? If you're thinking not at all, you win the prize.
"So, this is the point where we let you ask questions, get the 'what the fuck are you guys on and why aren't you sharing' reactions out of the way. Then, we can get on to the part where we can help you or you can try to make it on your own in a strange world with no resources."
