A little story sent to me by Anthony Bault via two e-mails. All characters featured are © to their players/creators. ******* Anthony looked at the building in front of him. A sign saying "Lisa Echidna's Artworx" was proudly displayed over the doorway. "This must be the place," he thought to himself as he opened the door. Inside the art studio was everything from watercolors to colored pencil drawings, many of which showed Mobius's blue spiked hero in a variety of heroic poses. He had seen these drawings before, on a fanfiction writer's site back on his own planet of Earth, so many of them were very familiar to him. Eventually, he walked up to a desk where he saw a purple quilled echidna mulling over another drawing. "Welcome," the echidna replied as she looked up and saw the human come in. "Can I help you with anything?" "Yes," Anthony replied as he walked up to the desk. "I actually have a couple of questions...first, are you Lisa Echidna?" "The one and only. I did all the artwork you see in here." "I see...second..." Anthony said, then used a Telekinetic pulse which caused the echidna to fly to the other side of the room and hit the wall hard. He then continued. "Just what type of a fool did you take me for, Zomicca?" The echidna, now recognized as Zomicca, got up and looked at the human while rubbing the back of her head. "Wha...how? How did you know my real name?" "Allow me to introduce myself..." Anthony said, removing the coat he was wearing and revealing a red armor breastplate with a sword stapped to the back and a star shaped symbol attached the the center of the front. "Anthony Bault, Gamemaster of Arcadia. I know you have the real Lisa Echidna trapped somewhere, and suggest you tell me where she is...NOW!" "Never..." Zomicca said, then unleashing a blast of magic towards the human. Anthony quickly drew his sword and deflected the blast, sending it into the ceiling where it scorched the plaster. He then ran forward sent a Force Blast power towards Zomicca which knocked her to the floor. As Zomicca tried to get up, she found herself being pinned to the ground by the Gamemaster and later felt her body getting numb as a Paralysis power coursed through her. "I'll ask again...tell me where Lisa is!" Anthony yelled as he looked into Zomicca's face. Zomicca had little choice. "The closet in the back...just don't hurt me!" Anthony jumped up and ran to the closet. Upon opening it he found another purple quilled echidna looking exactly like Zomicca tied up and gagged. He removed the gag, but before he could do anything else, he noticed Zomicca get up from the ground and use a Teleport spell to escape. "Damn...she must've found a way to counteract the Paralysis..." he said out loud, then turned his attention to Lisa. "Are you alright, Lisa?" he asked as he cut her bonds. "Yes...I...I think so," Lisa said as Anthony released the last of the ropes. "Who are you?" "Anthony Bault, Gamemaster of Arcadia. My friend, Sonic, told me about you and I came to invite you to a lunch we're having. Of course...that was before I found out your evil twin Zomicca captured you." "How did...?" "There's a furry artist who uses the Internet name Lisa Echidna back on my home planet of Earth who recently drew a picture showing you tied up and Zomicca gloating. I took this as meaning the same thing happened to the real you here on Mobius. Glad to see I was right so I could come help. How long were you tied up?" "Three days. I'm just lucky Zomicca was nice enough to feed me and that I was sitting on a toilet in that closet. I think I can..." As Lisa tried to walk, she stumbled and Anthony caught her. "Maybe not...I don't feel so good..." "I'd better get you to a doctor then," Anthony said, picking up the echidna in his arms and then walking outside. He then yelled "Device 2, ACTIVATE", causing a jet sled to appear under him. He then started jetting off towards the nearest hospital as Lisa held on as best she could... ******* "She should be fine, Gamemaster," the doctor said, addressing the armored human waiting outside the room. "Some malnutrition and atrophied muscles, but she should recover quickly. You definitely deserve her thanks, she could've been a lot worse off." "Those thanks belong to the Lisa Echidna of my world," Anthony replied. "If it wasn't for that drawing she made for her website on my world, I wouldn't have known about what happened to THIS world's Lisa." "Hmmm...rather interesting the latent powers of your world, Gamemaster. We are going to keep her for observation for a few days. We've already informed her young ward, Kyle, what happened and have heard he is staying with her sister. Oh...she does want to speak to you." "I see...lead the way doctor." The doctor lead Anthony into the room, where a bedridden Lisa was busy sketching something. A quick peek by Anthony revealed the drawing to be one of him...even though as he appeared to be a little furrier than the average human. "Is that what I look like as a skunk?" Anthony inquired. Lisa looked up and saw Anthony admiring the drawing. "Yes...I usually do drawings of anthropomorphs since I have had little luck with drawing a human. So...I remembered seeing a picture of the royal guard, Geoffrey St. John, and kinda redrew you as his species." "Interesting coincidence...I actually play a skunk character on an online MUCK called 'Furcadia'." Lisa giggled at that revelation. "Perhaps I have a link to your world like the Lisa of your world has one to mine." "Perhaps..." Anthony mused. "So...what did you want to see me for, Lisa?" Before Lisa could answer, a knock was head at the door. The doctor opened in a crack, looked outside, and then turned back towards Lisa. "It would appear you have other visitors, Miss Echidna." Lisa looked towards the door, and her eyes widened as two hedgehogs, blue and pink in color, and an orange two tailed fox came in. The blue hedgehog was carrying a large bouquet of flowers. "I called my friends over to see you," Anthony explained, "and...they brought a get well gift as well..." The End?
