(allow me to yeet myself into existence)

A gentle breeze blows through the forest, the leaves lightly brustling as a tranquil peace fills the air. Ah, yes. Although much of this island has been enveloped in chaos, this one particular section of forest has escaped it. No outsiders from another universe, no killer dinosaurs...just peace and tranquility.

Peace and tranquility that is promptly shattered when a portal opens up and violently spits someone out before closing as quick as it came, leaving only a dazed figure in its wake. He's dressed in some kind of black and blue uniform that covers most of his body, with a design meant to allow flexibility and agility. A tan and black device - looks like some kind of weapon - is attached to his shoulder, ready to use at a moment's notice. Blue and white fur covers what's visible of his body, and black markings make themselves known on his face. Yellow eyes with orange irises look around as the figure shakes off his daze, before the figure quickly gets up and, after looking around for a moment, pulls out some kind of badge, which seems to double as a communicator of some kind.

"This is Rook Blonko to Plumber HQ. I was taken to an unknown location on duty via a portal created by unknown means. Can anyone read me? Please, respond."

Radio silence.

"I repeat, this is Rook Blonko to Plumber HQ, I am currently in an unknown location with potential hostiles, if anyone can read me, please, respond!"

More silence. After a moment, Rook, as he named himself, grabs the device on his shoulder and takes it off, turning it into a scanner with a holographic screen. He takes a look at the data it provides and thinks for a moment.

"Hmm...judging by these readings, and the fact that I cannot contact Plumber HQ, I appear to have been brought into another universe. Surprisingly, this is not the most unusual thing to happen to me this week." Rook remarks, taking note of his environment as he speaks. He adusts the device, turning it into a blaster of some kind. "But I cannot waste any more time - if I wish to get home, I will have to locate and utilize whatever brought me here in the first place."

He starts walking. "But who would bring me here? Does it have anything to do with-"

"Hello? Is anyone there?"

Rook stops talking as he catches a voice in the distance. Female, probably around Ben's age if not younger. Worried. Slightly scared.

...this may not be his universe, but he is a Plumber. It's his job to help people, no matter where he may be.

Rook starts walking towards the voice, and as he does so, he starts to see the person calling out for help in more detail.

"Please - I do not know where I am, and my friends need my help! I need to get to them!" She's taller than average, and her outfit, consisting of a purple crop top, skirt, and leggings, along with silver gauntlets and a silver band over her right arm, shows it. Her long red hair flows freely in the air, and dark green eyes with green sclera look to see if anyone is responding to her call.

Those eyes, and the fact that she's floating, is Rook's tip-off that this girl isn't human. Considering he himself isn't human, he doesn't really mind.

Taking a moment to check if his universal translator is working both ways, Rook clears his throat to get the girl's attention, and then he starts talking. "Excuse me, miss..."

"Oh, hello! Are you native here? Do you know where this place is?" The alien girl turns around, greeting Rook with a smile on her face, paying close attention to what he has to say next.

"I...cannot help you with that, unfortunately. I myself am not from around here." Rook clarifies.

"...I see...then you are lost as well?" The girl floats over to Rook.

"Something like that." Rook nods, changing his Proto-Tool back into it's scanner form. "However, I have trained for situations like this, so, perhaps if you recall how you got here, I might be able to help, miss...?"

"Starfire." Starfire nods, looking at Rook closely. "And you are?"

"Rook Blonko, madam." Rook briefly flashes his Plumber badge before putting it elsewhere.
