Why now?

It was the worst possible time for it. The crew was about to be embroiled in a battle for their lives. Half of them were infested with alien parasites and restrained in MedBay.

||Pod Release Protocols Initating,|| Stacy's familiar voice sounded out to all the podmates.

In the Pod Caverns, there were the sounds of: Pop. Pop pop pop. ( Read more... )

Dean just sort of lays there for a second, blinking, and then he sits up, looking grossed out. What the hell?

"... Ew." He grumbles, trying to wipe the slime off his arm.

He's in a huge cavernous room, that seems to go on for miles. Clusters of faintly glowing pods like the one he just broke free from are gathered in bunches along the walls and floors, and around ramps and walkways that spiral off and up into the distance. Inside each is the faint outline of a humanoid shape--although some aren't quite so humanoid.

When he starts to get feeling back in his skin, he'll realize that the chamber is muggy and warm.

Right, so Dean's all in one piece, and very naked. He doesn't mind the naked bit, really, that's easily fixable, and even if it's not, clothes are not his number one priority anyway. Where he is, however, is what he needs to know, closely followed by where Sam is.

The glowing pods are weird, but it's mostly the warm, humid feeling in the room that creeps him out. For the moment, he ignores both that and the people around him, and shouts:

"Sam! Hey, Sam!" He pauses, then louder, "SAMMY!"

A hologram blinks in front of him. "Sam who?"

She accesses the crew roster. Dean is now listed on it.

"You're Sam Winchester's brother?"

River has had worse days. She can think of a few of them off the top of her head, but usually she's given some warning about them, instead of waking up as she tumbles out of a pod and to the floor, gasping softly and catching herself on hands and knees before she hits the floor too hard. The floor... which is pulsing.

Introsen. She was supposed to be at the caves with Jarod and Claudia, and this- is not- Introsen. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

She pushes herself to her feet slowly, shaking off what appears to be some sort of organic slime with a grimace, pushing her hair from her face though some of it sticks to her forehead. "Worse days," she reminds herself softly as she glances around the room, making note of the shapes inside the pods surrounding her. "I've had worse days." But at least then she had some idea where she was, and what the hell was going on.

||River Song, you have nothing to fear|| says the voice in her head.

River jumps at the sound of the voice, and she can't quite work out, for the moment, whether it's outside her head or...

"Somehow that's never reassuring to hear," she mutters, unsure if it can hear her. She raises her voice as she goes on, "Where am I? Who are you? ...How did I get here?" Always the first questions you ask. The whys come later.

||You are in me. You are--kkkt. You are...kkkt.||

A hologram appears in front of River, projected from the wall, of a different woman with a different voice.

"Stacy is indisposed at the moment," says Andromeda. "I am one of the supplemental AIs imprisoned in this ship, Stacy's, computer systems. My designation is Shining Path to Truth and Knowledge AI model GRA 112, serial number XMC-10-182. You have been abducted by unknown interdimensional entities."

"ORGANIC GOO! I'm covered in organic goo!" Sentinel Prime ran flailing through the chamber, all other thought functions overridden. He didn't dare transform. Who KNOWS where that could get more of this goo into his servos?!

"Wasp! You filthy traitor! I'll get you for this!" Sentinel pulled out his disinfectant canisters and began spraying himself down.

Josephina 'Jo' Lupos groaned and slowly pushed herself up into a kneeling position. Her nose suddenly scrunched up as the warm muggy air of the room enveloped her body. "What the...??" She muttered as her eyes flickered open and she tried to take in her surroundings.

She didn't recognize where she was... Pulsating lights?! Was she somewhere inside of Global Dynamics? She had to be, because she had never seen anywhere like this in the town. "OK Fargo!" She called out. "This isn't funny...."

She went to reach into her pants pocket for her phone, though instead of feeling the material of her pants, she instead got a handful of slimy goop. OK, so this was not good. Her brows furrowed and she looked down at herself and a single eyebrow arched. Naked. No clothes. Fargo was so dead, and Carter too.

Jo's eyes widened hearing the voice... come from, well she wasn't sure where it was coming from exactly.. But at that moment in time she was more than sure she was somewhere in GD! That was really the only place that would have a... talking room! Hell they had a talking house!

She was about to say something back to the room when she heard Pop. Poppop. KASCHUNKhiiiiiissss. Her head snapped around and she watched in a sort of disgusted fascination as something gooey and slimy plopped out of...something that looked like it had come right out of some old sci-fi movie.

That something turned out to be a man... A loud cussing one at that.

Rising to her feet, Jo attempted to cover herself up as she glared quite openly at the slimey man. "Who the hell are you?!" She demanded before allowing her gaze to sweep once more across the vast room. "And I swear! Fargo, you skinny little geek! Your ´... S.A.R.A.H.!! What is going on?!"

Ron's first reaction? "....WHY DO I KEEP LOSING MY PANTS?!"

Rufus just uttered and "Eww." and tried to shake the slime off of himself.

Sentinel tip-toed his way towards the nearest life-form, trying not to expose himself to any more of the goo that seemed to be scattered about this place.

"You there, sim-- ple..." His voice cut off and he gasped as he finally had drawn close enough to see the size of it. It was like the ones from Earth, but massive! It was as gangly as the ninja drop-out in Optimus' crew, but still, it would loom over the organics of Earth.

He cleared his throat. "Attention, giant organic!" He spoke slowly, having recalled that organics could be easily agitated. "I, Sentinel Prime, on behalf of Cybertron and the Autobot Elite Guard, demand to know what this location is!"

"...Earth? The same Earth that Optimus and his crew of drop-outs crashed on?" One of Sentinel's eyes widened.

Maybe this was some new model of the organics there.
