The Story: "Help us our world is dying... Please... Come to our aid."
"I can't wait to get home it is absolutely freezing out here! I wish I could afford a car... or even the bus home. Stupid underpaid college-ness." Meru thought as she was walking home. Well she wasn't exactly walking anymore she was more of jogging. "Ah! I can see the house up ahead thank god." Meru started to slow down hoping to catch her breath, and taking her time to walk the rest of the way there. She was tired enough as it was. Since getting up at seven O'clock that morning she had been constantly busy; handing in assignments, taking notes, running to work and picking up a few groceries for the weekend. She was bushed and wanted to get home and warm up, and perhaps eat some of that cake she had saved up for to eat. There was nothing better then hot chocolate and cake on a cold day like it was today.
~*~
*CRASH*
"I should have known better then to use a window to get into a house again. I hope that no one is home... yet."
Sian sat up and straightened herself out, falling from the window onto the counter and then to the floor had well messed things up a bit. After getting herself sorted out Sian got up and started to clean up the rest of the mess she had made. Nothing much had been broken, just a vase and Sian's shirt had been ripped.
"Awe, come on give me a break! I don't know how to sew and it's the middle of freaken winter. I guess I had better... OH god... is that cake? It's cake!!" Yes everyone, Sian does have a short attention span. It comes with the whole 'I'm hungry and I'm homeless,' deal. Sian sneaked over to the counter which held the delicious cake she had happened upon. She hadn't had cake in so long... Then again she hadn't slept in a bed since last year too. This was going to be a good night.
~*~
"Yay! Finally home... now if these stupid keys would work... There we go." Meru fumbled with her keys, slipping them into place and quietly entered the house. Closing the door behind her she sighed, getting ready for some relaxing time, she hung her coat on the hook.
"Home sweet-"
*CRASH*
"What in gods name...?"
~*~
Sian had stood up and went to grab the cake platter, however luck just wasn't on her side, and her gloves happened to hate her at the moment. As soon as the platter of cake cleared the counter it slipped out of Sian's hands. Sian reached out to grab it but missed. "Oh shi-"
~*~
Meru took no time in deciding what to do. She picked up the umbrella leaning on the closet and took off for the kitchen.
"I've got a stick and I'm not afraid to use it!" Meru rushed into the kitchen... Then took a nice slip on the cake almost smacking Sian in the face with her foot.
After letting out a shriek and falling on her butt trying to get away from Meru's foot Sian sat up slowly. "Uhhh... Hello there, my name is Sian and I'm... um... A hobo..." Sian gave a smile. She was already in pretty deep so she may as well try to get out somewhat. "I was cold and your window was open so I came in. Then I saw the cake... I'm sorry; I'll pay you for any damages..."
Meru sat up and rubbed her back side, getting ready to glare heavily at her cake-stealing intruder she blinked. Taking a good look at the girl she had crowned 'The Cake Stealer' she was suprised of the face that was there. "Wait... I know that face... and that blond hair... and those Hazel eyes!"
Sian looked at Meru in disbelief. "Holy cow... its Meru... she helped me out when I was stabbed. I wonder if she remembers me?" Sian took off her hat and looked at Meru Sheepishly. "Hey Meru, ummm... sorry about this, I really seem to have caused you a lot of trouble lately..."
Meru had to chuckle, after the turn of events she was less angry now. "Sian that was my BEST cake platter, in fact it's my ONLY cake platter. You broke my other one last time, remember?"
"Ohh, yeeeaaahhhh. So, you're not going to call the cops are you?"
"Yes Sian I'm going to call the cops on my hobo friend... I'm kidding take that look off your face." Meru looked around the kitchen, "Actually I was thinking that if you could clean up my cake, that I had been saving, you could maybe stay here for awhile."
"Really? No lie?"
"Really, really!"
~*~
"This is one of the less cluttered guest rooms, you can use it while you're here Sian. All I ask is that you keep it clean and maybe do some chores around here while I'm gone." Meru explained as she opened the guest room door for Sian to see.
"I'll do whatever you want Meru, shopping, cleaning, and cooking. You name it I can do it. It comes with the whole hobo thing and looking after yourself thing."
"Sian you really aren't a hobo."
"I'm close enough." Sian peeked around the room; she was getting a funny vibe from it. Something seemed odd about it.
"Hmm this room feels weird... maybe I'll put you in another one instead?" Meru looked over at Sian who obviously wasn't paying any attention to her. Instead she had wandered over to the full length mirror resting against the wall and was just staring into it.
"Meru... what is this thing? I mean... it looks like a mirror but it also looks like a picture... and it just moved."
"What? Things don't move in mirrors, what are you talking about?" Meru walked over to Sian to look at the mirror. The mirror looked old, almost Victorian with a golden frame with small details of flowers and vines etched in sliver. The mirror part of it looked almost like a TV screen but still managed to reflect both Siam and herself. "I'm going to touch it." Sian reached out for the mirror just as Meru grabbed her arm to pull her away... With a flash of golden light, they were sucked into the mirror.
~*~
Meru woke up to Sian's voice. "HoMyGawd, ohhh look at those, I want one..."
"Sian what are you talking abo- Ohmygawd. Where in the world are we?!" Meru looked around trying to adapt to her surroundings. "All I remember was you going to touch the mirror and Boom! Nothing." She looked weirdly at Sian; "...we weren't sucked in to it... were we?"
"Uh yes, and this fairy thing here wants to talk to us, so as we were waiting for you to wake up I pranced around and she thought about how grubby I looked."
"I did not!"
Meru looked over to where the voice came from and was well... shocked. Standing not too far from her was an angel. She had long white wings and golden hair, she was thin and dainty, yet you could see she was strong. Meru looked up at her eyes and gasped, she had gorgeous eyes they were golden like the first rays of sun in the morning.
Sian hopped (literally) over to Meru. "She needs our help."
The angel smiled sadly. "I need more then just your help, as you can see," she made a sweeping motion to the area around her. "Our world is like a reflection of yours. Due to the constant change and corruption of the environment in your world, ours is falling apart. I need you to take my people through the gateway and incorporate them into your world."
"Okay, and see that's where she got with me, and then she saw you. Anyways... I still don't know where we are, what you are and stuff like that, oh and my name is Sian and the sleepy-head here is Meru."
"My people call me Dea. To answer your question, you are in Mysteria, we are the Mysterians. My people grow or develop in three stages. The first is an egg engraved with our language with a symbol on it to show what type it is. We then move to the next stage, the Mysterian Children start to learn about life and how the world works. Finally there is the Adult stage in which the Mysterian will stay in their chosen form for the rest of their life."
She went on to explain the aspects of what we would need. A sudden shudder from the ground alerted us all that it was time for us to move along. Dea looked sadly on as she coated us in golden light along with the creatures we were being in trusted with and sent us back to our side of the mirror.
If I would have known that I would get stuck with a bunch of egg baby's when I broke into Meru's house. Well, I'm not sure if I would do it again. Not for all the cake in the world, but what can one do? I may as well flow with it, and un-hobo myself.

Sian was once again mopping up after Naida in the mirror room. It was now like a life-style for her. OH yes, yes it was. She was humming quietly while mopping and thinking of a way to get Naida around without so much water being on the floor. It was kind of dangerous. Right after thinking about slipping Sian did so. It was just her luck. She was nimble though and she tried to fall away from the mirror. So she fell flat on her back and had the wind knocked out of her. "Damn, water from stupid pet." Sian moaned as she feebly tried to catch her breath. Quoting: Sian slowly sat up and looked at the mirror... Okay so she must have hit her head or something because it was moving. Yup, it was going all shimmery.... Yup it should stop that now... BAM! Sian gets hit in the face with an egg. "...s**t." Sian looked at the egg... it was just like the rest, except this one had hit her in the face.  "So, I guess you're for Meru and I to keep eh? Fine. But I already don't luff you." Sian got up slowly, she could already see how today was going to be... It was going to be a long-a** day.

They walked rather slowly, the two of them - Sheridan had to catch the faun a few times, as he stumbled over this and that - he couldn't blame the kid, really. Hooves looked hard to walk on, especially if it was the first day of your fully animate life. What he didn't like, however, were the stared he got. He hated it when people looked at him. Well, really, they weren't looking at him, but at the faun... still, they were looking in his general direction, and he didn't like it.
Finally, he caught sight of the familiar house, and smiled down at the still-nameless faun. "Almost there." Teal eyes looked up at him, and blinked, again with no sound.
They walked up to the front door - even slower now, for the faun had decided to attempt to chase a leaf as it was blown under his feet by the wind. But they made it, and, after a bit of a sheepish sideways look, Sheridan knocked on the door.

Sian heard a knock at the door and well bounded towards it. She left the living room skidding and ran into the door with a rather loud BANG and hit the floor.
"Owwww...."
After a few seconds of lying on her back she remembered: There was someone at the door! So she jumped up and opened the door as she had intended to do in the first place.

"Err... hello." Sheridan smiled, fiddling with his fingers rather nervously. "I... came here 'cause maybe you want to meet this little guy." He waved at the little faun, holding on to the index finger of his hand and sucking his thumb as he turned his head upwards to look at Sian curiously.
Sheridan wondered, fleetingly, if the faun knew that he wasn't in the right world. Had he noticed that everyone else they had passed today was.. normal? Or did he not care? It was hard to tell, since the hatchling didn't make much noise, not show much emotion apart from curiosity.
"He hatched this morning." Sheridan turned back towards Sian, and offered her a smile.

"Ooohhh" Sian stepped aside for Sheridan and the faun to come in as she returned the smile.
"He's cute! And you say he just hatched this morning, that's neat. You should come in... You probally have a lot of questions, am I right?" Sian looked up at Sheridan's face to make sure he was okay... This was probally a huge shock for him, and he looked soo lost right now, the least she could do was offer his some help.

"Yeah." Sheridan nodded, leading the faun into the house., listening to his hooves click against the floor - very much like they had all the way here. An unsteady clicking, because the hatching wasn't a very steady walked yet - although Sheridan was surprised at how fast he had gotten onto his feet. Well, hooves. Still, he'd have expected a bit more time spent crawling about. Showed how much he knew.
"I'm sorry if I'm.. err, disturbing you." he mumbled, sheepish as usual. The faun let go of his finger, and stumbled to tug on a phone cord, his guardian to obsessed with being nervous to notice.

Sian smiled at the sound of the clicking, and then went over to pick up the faun before he pulled the telephone over onto himself and started crying. That would be aweful, she still remembered the first time Naida had cried. It was never ending, Sian had almost gone insane and ended up putting a spell on Naida to make her shut up.
"Ah, you're not disturbing me. I was just sitting down for a bit and reading. Nothing important. I think Naida and Meru are out right now... They left before I woke up. Would you like some tea? You look like you're about to break down." Sian smiled a sympathetic smile when she said this... Sheridan did look like he was about to break down. Poor guy.

meru was rummaging in the cupboards in the basement looking for supplies when the door had been knocked on. Already putting Naida back in her bath before she had headed down. Knowing that sian would be sleeping she had gone to the basement trying to look for her missing art supplies. knowing sian would get there before her, she opened the fridge. She heard the bang of sian, and knew instantly that she had infact, mangaged to do something silly once again. Having heard the scuffling of feat and the muffled voicese, she knew she had a guest. Grabbing the a basket of markers and misc junk, she shut the door and headed back up the stairs and into the hallway where she could hear the voices.
"Ah~~ Sian!~ whos at the door?" Meru walked around the corner and saw Sheridan.
"Ahhh~ its good to see you once again...Sheridan?"

"Yeah.. tea." Sheridan nodded, smiling a bit, remembering what happened last time he had tea at their place. But he wasn't exhausted now - yes, he felt just about ready to break down, but not exhausted. Just... lost, and unsure that he could manage all of this. But if it was one thing his father had knocked into him, you had to stick to your responsibilities, or you'd find yourself in a terrible mess.
Sheridan didn't like messes much - from where he stood, he was already in one. His whole life had been one. he didn't want to make it any worse - best to take his father's advice, then. Even though he'd been trying to forget the man. But he would be an idiot to ignore a perfectly good piece of advice - and Sheridan was also trying his best not to be an idiot. That, unfortunately, led to messes too.
