Our Story:
“You’re up late tonight,”
At the sound of the female voice behind him, Carter Blaise spun around, Glock in hand.
He faced the portal, glowing green and yellow in the darkened lab. In the ‘doorway’ was a humanoid figure. Not human but, an animal. Some kind of fox. Upright on two legs. It, she, was wearing a skirt blouse and lab coat. In her paw-like hands she held a saucer and cup of some steaming beverage.
“But, then again, so am I.” The figure said, her voice was a bit rough but, quite pleasing. She took a sip of her beverage and watched him intently through half-closed eyes.
With a small chuckle, Carter relaxed and holstered his weapon.
“Yup. Workin’ late” He said and turned back to the job at hand. He was opening the bags he’d lowered down from the skylight a couple of minutes ago.
“I couldn’t sleep so I thought I’d brew some tea and sit and watch the portal,” She said conversationally,” It’s quite relaxing to look into another world, don’t you think?’
“Oh, Yeah,” Carter replied a bit distractedly,”Really relaxing.”
He’d pulled out his laptop and was plugging into the LAN. He wasn’t rushing. He had all the time in the world. These scientists, he’d found, were heavy sleepers. They were also quite content to dispense with interior guards, they were so confident that they were far too out of the way in their arctic complex to worry about trespassers.
All he had to do was hack the cameras and time his entrance and exit. He’d be out in his camouflaged bivouac in twenty minutes, including travel time.
“I realize you’re not part of the staff, you know.” came the voice again
“Yeah, so.” Carter said, not turning around.
“So,”Said the voice with a calm that was beginning to infuriate Carter, “You must know that I must inform Doctor Veldman or Doctor Singh in the morning. You won’t get far.”
“Yeah?” He’d connected to the network and stood straight as his programs worked their automatic magic. He turned to face the portal, “What business of it is yours?”
He examined the figure in the portal. She was quite short and chunky with thick white fur. He took her to be an Arctic fox of some sort. Her overall figure was both alien and abundantly female. He watched took a sip of her tea and her muzzle moved into what looked like a smile as her bright blue eyes regarded him through silver-framed pince nez.
“We don’t appreciate industrial espionage here any more than in your world,” Her eyes narrowed a bit, but, her calm, measured voice was unchanged, “We have all been working very hard at this.”
Carter shifted his weight a little. The little fox woman was starting to bug him. He put his hand on the butt of his Glock.
“Look… Lady,” He began, “You got no place-“
“No.” she said, the schoolteacher harmonics in her voice caused Carter to stop talking despite himself, “I have every right to stop you. Our work is important and I won’t let you take it away.”
“And what,” Carter pulled his pistol again, “Are you gonna do about it?”
The fox lady did not flinch at all. She took another sip of her tea and regarded him again.”
“I would not try to shoot me,” She said with that still-infuriating calm,”It wouldn’t do any good. Objects passed through the portal field have a mass of zero for point-five seconds after they pass through the field. It wouldn’t harm me at all and you’d just make yourself look like more of an idiot than you already have.”
She smiled a haughty smile at Carter and his normally calm demeanor, essential to his work, failed him. With a growl, he stalked up to the humming, glowing portal.
“Look, bitch!” He snarled, striding closer, “You’d better- Whoop!”
The last sound was when his feet became tangled up in some cables on the floor in front of the portal. He began to fall forward and he fought to keep his feet as he stumbled closer and closer to the portal. He only had time for a single word as he passed through the glowing doorway
“Shit!”
His vision went green and a strange, uncanny tingling that seemed to fill his entire being swept over him. After what felt like a second and a year at the same time, he came to his senses and realized he was on a floor with his eyes closed.
“Well,” said a familiar voice, “Wasn’t that something?”
Carter pulled himself to his elbows and shook his head. The tiles were warm on his skin. Skin? He was naked! He snapped his head down to find he was naked. In a flash, he jumped to his feet and covered his crotch.
“It looks as though your clothing didn’t survive the journey,” The fox said, “Interesting, no?”
Carter closed his eyes and steeled himself. He had to calm down. This was too weird even for his line of work.
“What,” he said slowly, “Is going on?”
“Well, that is both quite simple and, possibly quite complex!” The fox woman laughed and Carter saw her long red tongue and large, pointed white teeth, “You fell through the portal, that you know. What is interesting is when you did, in that moment when you were a mass of zero, your body passed through mine. I didn’t feel a thing.” She sipped her tea, “Did you?”
Carter was taken aback.
“No. I don’t think so,” He said quietly, then shook his head again. Baring his teeth, he continued, “Look, lady. Get out of the way, I’m going back home right now,”
“No. No you won’t.” The schoolteacher voice again subdued Carter, “First of all, you’re still quite weak from the transfer. Secondly, I’ve just worked out a little theory and I want to see if I’m right.”
“W-what theory” Carter said. He was feeling rather strange.
“Well, you passed through me at mass zero. That might mean that for a nanosecond, I was part of you. I wonder if you took anything from me as you passed? I think you may have but, I could be wrong. It will be interesting to find out regardless, don’t you think?”
“I-“ Carter began when suddenly the room began to spin and the fox woman seemed to get larger. His body felt off and he looked down to see that his muscled form was gaining fat and he was getting shorter.
“Oh, no!” He yelped.
“Oh, yes,” the fox lady said with an expectant tone. I do enjoy being right!.”
Carter looked at the fox lady. She was looming larger as he shrunk, white fur was forming over his body and there was a strange pulling on his backside.
“I’ve always wanted a sister…”The fox gave him another, more sinister smile.
