OTA: Bonnies winked in

[knighttech]

One minute Bonnie had been working on closing her lab up for the night, the next she was standing in a room with a lot of windows. Under her coveralls she had on normal everyday clothes, but the white jumpsuit with her F.L.A.G ID tag hanging around her neck stood out like a sore thumb.

Wa-was that space? Bonnies stomach pitted as she stood frozen in shock as she tried to let things register, slowly turning in place to get an idea of the situation. This couldn't be real, things like this didn't just happen. How much sleep had she gotten recently? Had she passed out and this was just a horrible dream?

Swallowing thickly and trying to keep calm the brunette haired woman called out.

"Hello? Is anyone around that might be able to help me?"

Meanwhile, in a random hallway...

There was a flash, and a small form crumpled to the floor in a heap. When it shifted a few moments later with a soft pained noise, it was revealed to be a tiny female no bigger than a small human child. She was roughly between 2 and a half and 3 feet tall, thin and waiflike with long pale white blonde hair. A hooded robe covered what she was wearing, but she was barefoot.

It also was clear that she wasn't human.

Raising her head, her large eyes widened further as she realized she was in a different place entirely. Echoes of the pain in her back prevented her from getting up right away, but she managed to shift and roll to the side against the wall. Further down the hall, she saw another hallway crossing in another direction. People walked along there but they were not Gelfling or even Skeksis. They were beings she'd never seen before. And tall. Much taller than she'd ever encountered before.

"Jen?" She called, frightened. Wherever she was it was so alien It felt dead. Nothing like the living forests of her home. She fought panic, while she tried to comprehend what had happened to her. The last she remembered, she had just thrown Jen the shard of the Dark Crystal as the Skeksis surrounded her. She hoped that he was able to heal the crystal and fulfill the prophecy! Her heart ached, worried for her friend. And Fizgig. Poor Fizgig had fallen down the fiery pit after jumping to her aid to protect her. Grief warred with the worry.

She had to try and be strong for both of them.

It took a couple tries, but the gelfling managed to get to her feet, leaning with both hands on the wall. She slowly and shakily made her way down the hall while using the wall for balance, feeling the odd vibrations in the wall and floor but not sure what they meant. Nor did she know where she was or how she got there.

All she could do was slowly put one foot infront of the other.
