Maybe Not Your Typical Kind of Entrance

With much force, a door blew off its hinges and collided with the concrete, making a loud sound as an unconscious red haired woman fell forward somewhere next to it.

Her forehead was bleeding a little. A nasty gash on her arm was starting to heal up by itself as a second sentience inside her had chosen to take over and give her nanotech a little boost in the regenerated of damaged tissue and muscles.

The sentience inside her chosen vessel had decided to take over for now, opening Mari's eyes that began to glow white. She could feel Mari's pain, and knew that she wasn't going to awaken anytime soon. She might have a concussion. She needs help, and shelter...

Mari, I am sorry, but I cannot bring you home. It's much too dangerous! Vertigo would only weaken you again. I won't allow it. We won't want her to get inside your head.

Carefully, she moved Mari's legs and arms, helping her vessel to stand. Looking around, and using Mari's voice, this life and power source of another, a sentient Nexus began to open Mari's mouth. She had no voice of her own, and had no choice but to take over and seek help.

"Is there someone out there? Please! I seek sanctuary! My companion is hurt, and she needs a place to rest." She will forgive me. She will understand. She /must/.

There's thousands of worlds connected to this one multiversal hub. Jim doesn't know why he didn't assume there could be more than one. The thought alone is mind bending, but then, thinking of the scope of one universe is impossible enough for a human brain to take in-- imagining several and hubs to connect all of them is next to impossible.

"Well, I know a guy who's pretty handy with portals who can help you get home when you feel you're up for it."

It'd be hard for most to grasp everything Mari had endured, alongside her friends and boyfriend on N-Two's lands. The dangers over there and Mari's past alone would brain-break someone, even when she chose to simplify every bit of that.

As Jim offered to help Mari back home, N-Two was quick to advise. I don't think it's a good idea to go home. Don't you?

"Can't go back, Jim." Mari frowned at him. "N-Two and I know it's not safe for me to return yet. Home won't ever be safe if Vertigo's still around. She's got to go, and it can't be done simply with combat, or blowing her head off." Trust was of course a two-way street, so she began to explain further. "To help protect home and my family, I could avoid getting attacked here. Then, once the headache goes away, I could help them over here."
