Elsewhere, a short angry man by the name of Dan dials up his friend in the middle of the night.

The plaid pants had been annoying. Ending up in a Scottish Accent Fair had been irritating. But the bagpipes that played while he was trying to sleep was the last straw. Scotland has to pay.

In a house a few blocks away, Chris grumbles, picks up the phone...and hangs up immediately.

"Who was it?" Elise looks up, still partly asleep.

"Dan." Chris gets out of bed and stretches. "Well, I better get dressed."

"No...just stay in bed." Elise groans.

Chris sighs. "You know as well as I do that Dan is coming as we speak."

Indeed, as soon as Chris as hung up, Dan had immediately left a infuriated message, then gotten into his red car to drive to his residence.

"But I set up some defences this time." Elise replies.

Chris raises an eyebrow. "What kind? Those mouse-traps didn't work last time you tried to set up some defences."

Elise smirks. "Pit trap."

At that moment, Dan exits his car and heads for the bedroom window. "Stupid Chris...making me have to get him again...I mean, this is Scotland we're talking about! That place deserves whatever it geeeeeeeeeeeeAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH-"

Chris blinks when he hears Dan's scream. "Huh...how deep did you make that pit, exactly?"

Elise almost gives Chris an answer, then pauses when she notices that Dan is still screaming. And that she hasn't heard an impact yet. "Not that deep..."

Both immediately realizing that something was off, the two get dressed and head outside. Sure enough, Dan triggered Elise's trap...and fell directly into a portal in the process.

"Oh. That would explain why Dan's still screaming." Chris remarks. But while Chris is rather nonchalant, any trace of sleep disappears in Elise when she sees the portal. Being a secret agent for a quasi-secret government agency tended to make one have a through understanding of rifts in the space-time continuum.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Okay, stay here! I'm just going to grab something..." Elise starts to head for the garage. She could make something to track down whatever universe Dan had landed in, hand it over to her superiors to send in a retrevial team, and destabilize the portal before it could do anything el-

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Any rational thought goes right out the window when she hears Chris scream. Elise turns around to find Chris tripping directly into the pit, and therefore, into the portal.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">''"Chris!" ''Elise quickly heads for the garage. She grabs her katana, a sniper rifle, several smoke bombs, several canisters of the disorienting gas that Dan had almost used to get his revenge on traffic, and a copy of the shrink/grow ray gun that Dan had used to get his revenge on Gigundo Mart.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"I'm coming!" Elise heads through the portal.
