When worlds collide
Who:John Baily,Jack Baily(dimension#23),Jim Baily(dimension#42),Joe
Baily(dimension#54),Jane Baily(dimension#76)
Where:Onboard Blue Dwarf,in our dimension,and in
dimensions#23,#42,#54,#76,and the dimentional warp tunnel
Previously:In dimension#23,Dreen Dwarf had been atttacked by a fleet
of aliens.It was a blazing inferno and all the prisoners ran free on
the prison deck.Among them was Jack Baily,an alternate version of
John Baily.Jack discovered a dissused prototype spacecraft capable
of crossing dimensions and flew to freedom.Then,he pressed a big red
button in the middle of the control panel,and the ship was nowhere
to be seen...
Dimension#42:Today was the big day,millions of people were
gathered,cheering,and carrying small flags with "JMC" written on
them.In a massive clearing,protected by huge,unbreakable fences,lay
an enourmous ship the likes of witch the Jupiter Mining Corporation
had never attempted before.On the side of the ship,in huge,gleaming
letters,was written:"Yellow Dwarf".Finally,after almost sixty years
of planning,construction,and hype,the vessel was ready to be
launched,equipped with a crew of six thousand,at the dawn of the
bright new century.Suddenly,the massive crowd broak into a huge
uproar,waving their flags in the air.Approaching the ship was
thousands of men and woman who would become the crew of the Yellow
Dwarf,in a line,highest ranking first.At the very front of this
crew,was the captain,with a broad,proud smile on his face,waving to
the crowd.His name was Jim Baily,yet another alternative version of
John Baily.They both looked exactly identical,except that Jim had
ginger hair and was a little heavier.He stepped up the walkway into
the massive interior of the ship.It was a great day.Nothing could
possibly go wrong,and the mission would be a complete success
How wrong he was.
Our dimension:John Baily patroled the corridor.He didn't know why he
was bothering,really.It wasn't as if anyone was going to break in at
two o'clock in the morning.John let out a huge yawn."I really need
some excitement",he thought to himself,as if his recent near-death
encounter with the Evil-looking monster-type thing hadn't been
enough.His wish was answered soon enough,anyway,when he turned round
and walked down the other way.What he saw was a fat,ginger bloke
lying unconcious on the floor.John looked closer.The man looked a
bit like...John's thoughts were distracted by a loud rummaging noise
coming from the armoury room.He snapped his head round to see a man
in scruffy prison uniform with an unkempt beard stealing
weapons.John didn't know what was going on,but he was intent on
finding out...
