A series of images flash within his mind-
Your grounded!- his violent - come back!- it's too dangerous!- BRIAN!
Brian open his eyes in a deserted cliff plain with nothing around, his last memories was of him being hit by lightening, he immediately checked his body and was astonished by the fact he wasn't injured or was not dead, he looked around and was certain he was no longer in the bush, he stood up and went up the cliff and look down, at that same moment, the clouds obscuring the view drifted away as the sight of a vast nightmare showed up.
Strange looking buildings, orange rivers, red forest and trees, flying creatures, some looking like birds, others like dragons, and some had strange features which could not be described with words, this place looked like a town of demons from hell.
"Did I die, was I taken to hell, was I that bad?" He wondered as he shook in fright at the bizarrely strange environment, he heard some voices behind him, he immediately covered his head with his hood and dashed towards the bushes, soon two figures showed up.
One had horns like a devil with large eyeglasses, dressed responsibly, he looked older and he carried behind him a big back, as he played with a strange looking device, if you discarded the horns and tail behind him, he look exactly as the nerdy teachers back in Brian's world, the person following behind looked younger, the black hood covering the face, Brian could not see the person face, but from the way she walked, she look angry, but he was certain, this person wasn't human, as the beast tail kept on swaying left right behind her.
"Look, it's important I get this data, my device can't be wrong, it detected a breach in the line, is certainly not far from here, we just have to search for the origins" Said the nerdy man, the person next to him grumble, "we have been searching for an hour already, why are you so into such non existence things like this, your weird do you know that, every time i go to school, people look at me like the strangely " Spoke the girl, from her voice, she was a girl and was young.
"Stop grumbling, and help me search around " Said the man, he ignored her and kept his backpack down, he brought out some strange looking devices and started manipulating them.
Soon a small oval instrument was built up, the man turn it on, it made some mechanical sounds before levitating little by little, after making sure everything was alright and no abnormality detected, he placed his hand on the center and it glowed, Brian's eyes widen at the luminosity, "Magic?" He thought, soon the glowing light immediately drew a small line in space and an oval colorful line showed up.
"I was certain, look Ibara, they was a breach here, big enough for something to pass through " Said the nerd excited of his discovery, Ibara the girl beast remove her hood as her fluffy beast like ears could be seen, she was cute, but look to be the stubborn kind, she look at the line portal in astonishment, "wait a minute, isn't this bad, why is they such phenomenon far away from the portal zones? " She said something that caught Brian's interest.
"Sure sure, I would deal with the formalities later, look around, maybe something cross the line, it should be lying dead somewhere " Said the nerd, Ibara, the beast girl was shocked, "how are you certain that it's dead!" The girl totally rejected the idea.
"Don't worry, it's scientifically impossible for it to be alive" The man turn towards Ibara, "look, the line isn't that perfect, without a sufficient amount of discharge energy, a living organisms would come out in the form of a corpse, and even with the amount of energy, the organism would enter a phase of near dead" He said, the girl looked at him, asking for more details.
"Ahhh, meaning, his body would be disassemble in molecular state, smaller than atoms as such, even if it succeed in crossing, it would be too weak to fight back, so go and search for my specimen, I am already excited to dissect it" Said the nerd, as he kept playing with the device, Ibara grumble and walked away, "if not of school work, I would have gone out with the others, we were supposed to visit the pitfalls " Ibara walked away looking around.
"If the portal zones exist as that man mentioned, that means that I maybe able to go back home, they most be worried like shit" Brian looked around, went he felt a presence behind him.
"There's something odd with this Line, something odd about it" Dr. X, the man Brian saw as a nerd took out a small box and tapped on the surface, the box glowed and distort, a house showed up, it partial form though, he entered the house and immediately came into a room with books, papers and strange devices everywhere, he walked around and searched through the disorder documents, "not this, not this one, oh here is it " After searching, he took out a book, with a faded brown color, with a crystal line on the cover.
He came out the room skimming through the book, "here is it, the line shift phenomenon, this situation occurs when a dimensional breach occurs... This situation is similar to those that allow the messengers of the Fallen hole to pass through, wait, that means that, something similar to a messenger of the Fallen passed through this crack?" Thought Dr. X, he closed his eyes and started tapping his forehead with his finger.
"That's virtually impossible, the line is to small... Is to small, or it's already closing up?" Dr. X open his eyes, "that means, the line phenomenon can grow to a point of reaching the black hole breach, if that happens, we would be certainly in trouble, but that's unlikely, infact, for that to happen, an external variable is needed, like a distortion were something living of another line happens to find his way inside here" thought Dr. X, immediately -
BAM!
Two figures showed up, hugging each other, but it was not in a loving way though, Dr. X immediately recognized one of them as Ibara, as her black pullover could not be mistaken, but the other person, who was he?
Brian immediately kicked Ibara on her abdomen sending her away, she jumped backward and hissed at him showing her claws, ready to pounce back, Brian immediately lifted his arm ready to fight back, X adjusted his glasses in amazement, he immediately snapped out of his trance and stopped them before the ended up tearing themselves up.
"Ah ah calm down, stop, Ibara, keep your claws in your pocket" X came closer and stopped them, he look at Brian in amazement, "interesting, a living organisms, what kind of specie are you and from what line are you originating from?" He came closer, but seeing Brian's suspicious gaze, he stopped, "I have numerous questions, your world, culture, morphology, so many, don't be afraid, wait can't you understand at least what I am saying?" Asked Dr. X, Brian glared at him not saying anything, "stop wasting your time, he looks wild and uncivilized " Said Ibara glaring back at Brian.
Brian snorted, "coming from you, that's ironically stupid you animal" Said Brian grinning stupidly at Ibara, which did not understand what he mean, "what?" He look at the grinning boy, "iro-what? Ani-what?" But from the person's expression, it was definitely not something good.
"You dirty smug" She cursed at him, Brian was lost, 'smug?' he was confused, but that was certainly an insult she said, he got ready to launch.
"Okay okay, now stop, I need to think for how we would proceed " Said Dr. X, he turn to face Brian, "my name is Dr. X, I study the paranormal activities related Lines, you see, lines are small cracks in the space of dimensions, but your presence here proves that, there are other dimensions existing out there" When X started his monologue, Brian's hand gradually came down, "are you seriously giving me a lecture?" He asked, X laughed and apologize.
"Ibara, ehmm, let's pack up and head back home, would you like to come over for a chat?" Asked X, "in your dreams man, you want to dissect me" Said Brian, taking a step back, "oh!" After coughing awkwardly, he look at Brian and apologized, "I see, you must have been listening to us, sure, if you were a minor creature or whatsoever, surely, the possibility of being dissected, but it's good to have a human alive than dead" Said X, Ibara shook on the spot, "human? Him really, is this what a human looks like?" Asked Ibara surprised, she glared at Brian, "he doesn't really look civilized as mentioned in your report " She said, Brian's eye twitch in annoyance.
"Calm down, from his features, he is definitely a human, but he looks different, most and famous, there's something I want to know something " X adjusted his glasses, and stared at Brian, "how can you communicate with us?" Asked X, at first, Brian did not understand, but something flash in his mind, his first encounter with this people, they spoke a foreign language he did not understand, but now, he could get what this man and that wild cat saying.
"I don't know much either, the last thing I remember, is your people abducting my sister and trying to cross that strange portal" Said Brian, which X tried to correct, "line, is line" he said, Brian look at him, "what ever, the next moment was being hit by a flash and dragged inside your so calked line, and the next moment I was here, and all this happened " Summarize Brian breathing heavily, "calm down kid, you really look stress up" X tried to calm Brian down, but Brian was to shaken to calm down immediately and-
"I AM CALM!" he shouted back at them, his eyes glowed in color for a second, the space around them ripple for a moment, Ibara's hair rose up, she felt goosebump, she look at X, "is or can a human perform this?" She asked, X adjusted his glasses, "no, impossible, he was like enhanced by something, is it the line or something, what happened with him went he crossed the line?" Wondered Dr. X, Brian closed his eyes sighing heavily, he did not even realize the abnormality within him, he look at them, "so, what now?" Asked Brian.
"Going back home" Said X, Brian looked at X and Ibara, "where is this place?" He asked, "my house, the CrossLine laboratory" Said Dr. X
