The paratroopers turned tail and ran, glad to have recognised a clear attempt to kill them all before they fell for it.

Meanwhile, Nadine finished her chicken, and turned to face the pulsating light.

She held her hand up in an attempt to shade her eyes slightly, and squinted to see if she could make anything out.

What she saw, behind the sea of fog and vaporized glass, was Nadine.

Nadine looked again. Yes, it was definitely a mirror.

She studied her reflection carefully, eyes tracing every line her life had written on her face, and brushed away a single tear.

However, due to the nature of time and space, what she saw in the mirror was not, in fact, herself, but her past self, delivered onto the retinae of her eyes with a delay of fragments of a nanosecond, a period too miniscule for a laywoman such as herself to measure accurately without a proper equipment.

She slapped her cheeks a couple of times, "Snap out of it, Nadine," she whispered softly to herself, "you're losing your mind."

Then, she saw movement from the corner of her eye, turned and saw a bear; she whipped out her camera to catch the Kodiak moment.

As her camera lens focused on the large furry creature in front of her, she realized this was not a bear at all, it was a costume!


Very punny! :D

It was Dante, who had found his father's bear suit in the old shed.

She looked at him and said, "What the hell is wrong with you? Pulsating lights, paratroopers,salmonella, interdimensional mirrors; now is not the time for cosplay!"

Dante held his arms and hands up in front of him, and gave them a long look before saying, "It was dark in that old shed, I thought this was a bio-hazard suit!"

Nadine rolled her eyes with irritation, but Dante was just not going to quit, as he took off the bear gloves he said, "Look Nadine, bare hands!"

Nadine couldn't take this any longer, so she chucked a large cucumbear at Dante, hitting him squarely between the eyes.

'Mingus!', Mingus replied. 'Mingus deserves this, because Mingus hasn't been a Mingus Mingus'*

Nadine thought she heard a riff of cool jazz in the distance, but she shook her head, and it was gone.

She glanced back at Dante who was licking cucumber juice off his face and thought to herself, "what a cumbearsome fellow."

He shook his furry arms at her, "I have the right to bear arms, you know!!", he growled at her.

Suddenly, Dante and Nadine heard a loud rustling in some nearby bushes, they looked at each other, and then back towards the sound.

(Sorry for breaking the bear chain :fist: )

This was no bear costume; it was a real bear, one who had just finished a long and refreshing hibearnation and looked very hungry indeed.

I don't know if I can stop the bear puns now :P

"Does that bear have opposable thumbs?" Dante asked Nadine, "How is it climbing the sheet rope?"

"RUN!" shouted Dante, as they slammed the window shut, and ran out of the room and into the hallway, locking the door behind them.

"I can't believe it!" Nadine huffed as they wandered into the secret chambear, "That bear has opposable thumbs and a jetpack!!!"

"Maybe he is time jumping a bear from an alternate reality; one where THEY are the sentient beings? I wonder if he is the Bear in Black?? " asked Dante, as they locked the door behind them.

They leaned against the locked door breathing hard, when they slowly turned their heads to see the bear's face looking in at them from a window in the hallway.

The bear came closer and closer, and then knocked on the door nice like asking if he could come in.

Nadine had a puzzled look on her face, and asked the bear (through the door), "So, are you nice, and just asking to come in, or what?"

"If you're looking for Mongo, he doesn't live here anymore," Dante spoke in an exaggerated fashion, thinking it would be easier for the bear to understand him through the door.

Dante tried to recall what he had done the last time he took the bear suit out of the shed, but he had been so very drunk, it was a bit hazy.

"You're a talking bear with opposable thumbs and a jet pack. You could go to any restaurant in town and eat for free. Why me?" Asked Dante

"Have we met before,that you come here specifically for me, asking for me by name? How have I offended you?", asked Dante.
