What happened to me? Why am I here? And how did I get here?

[Deleted]

(April 15th. Morning.)

Maggie sighed as she woke and went to take a shower. Things seemed to be alright, until over sudden she disappeared and appeared in a place she had never been to before. Maggie looked around confused and sighed to that. She tried to figure out where she was but the more she tried the more lost and confused she had became. However, the longer passed the more sure Maggie was that it was all real. Which didn't make thinks any better. Not to Maggie that was for sure. She walked around as she tried to figure out where she was. Maggie was there without her kids but it didn't make things any better either. "Where am I? How did I got here? Why exactly am I here?" She asked in general. Not sure whom Maggie asked, she just wanted answers. She tried to look around for someone that could help her. Maggie didn't care who but she needed help, that much she knew for sure. She walked around as shr tried to find someone who could help her figure it sll out. Maggie didn't care who it was as long as they were good people and not evil. For a while she saw no one, until she over sudden saw someone walk over to her, as she watched the person closely. Maggie hoped that she didn't imagine thr person or it eon't be a good sign and she knew it rather well.

[Mrs. Angela Potts]

Nani walked out dressed in a white tanktop and blue jeans. She spotted the woman and walked up to her with a grin.

"Hello? Are you lost? I'm Nani Pelaki and I'm staying here with some friends. They know the area better than me if you need some help." asked Nani.

Mrs. Potts walked out next to get some fresh air spotting the new arrival as Nani was talking with her. She waved and walked over as well.

"Hello. Welcome. I'm Angela Potts. If you need anything to eat or drink I could whip something up for you." said Mrs. Potts.

[Tony Stark/Iron Man]

Tony and 90's Kid were quick to notice a small crowd. Tony, smiling, knew it was probably a new guy. The scientist came over and replied kindly "Looks like we got another one, eh mrs. potts?" He offered his hand with a grin "Tony Stark. Pleasure. Welcome to the club my dear. If you need any help at all let me know" He then turned to see 90's Kid and laughed a little.
XXXX

"Wow. More people came this month than snow" 90's Kid mumbled to himself. The surfer dude beamed brightly at Maggie and replied "Hey dudette, I'm 90's Kid. Welcome to the good guys. We're friends. Feel free to hang out as long as you need to" He hoped he was welcoming. Or at least helpful.

Maggie looked over as she saw someone walk over to her and sighed. She then listened as the person spoke to her. Maggie watched the person with curiousity, surprised the person looked cartoonish. She wasn't sure if she believed what she said to her but leaned more towards no, well except the part about helping and her name. As that was possible but the rest not really. Maggie knew that it wasn't her world, and if it was true the other young woman would be more terrified than nice if she saw her. That made her wonder what was going on. Maggie also wondered why did the other young woman lied to her, as it made no sense at all. It was way too easy to tell it was a lie, or so Maggie though, which made her wonder why did she even try that at all.

"Hello!Nice to meet you Nani Palaki. And is that so? Do you take me for a fool? Look at you and look at me. I may not be a law enforcement or such but I know that you are lying. But why are you lying to me so? If it was true then why aren't you freaked out that I am here? Confused even? What's going on? You look like a cartoon and I am not. I am not even from here! I know my Chicago and this isn't it. Try again,"

Maggie watched her and sighed as she said that. She then looked down and back at her. "I am lost though, that is for sure. As I have no idea wheere am I at! Do you? Do you know where am I? Or where are we at least? Do you know anything that could help me understand the situation? I need answers. Do you have any?"

Maggie then looked over as someone joined them. An older woman as she sighed and looked between the two. Maggie wasn't sure what to think or believe eve more so, once she saw the older woman who looked cartoonish. She watched them and sighed. Maggie saw the older woman when she waved to them as she sighed to that.

Maggie listened to her and nodded to that. It sounded good or so she thought. In a condition that the two weren't evil or anything like that. If they were really good people than Maggie wouldn't mind some food at drink. Also, they didn't seem dangerous and she didn't feel scared and worried. Maggie hoped that she wasn't wrong about them so or it won't end well and she tried to avoid thinking about that at all cost as that didn't help her at all. The momemt the older woman asked her that she realized that she was indeed hungry and thirsty.

"Food and drink would be great, actually. To be honest with you! Thank you. What do you have here? I am hungry and thirsty to be honest with you. Where am I so? And what's going on here? How did I get here or how we got here anyway? In case, you aren't from around here and all that,"

She watched a guy join them and sighed as she looked between him and the older woman(Mrs Potts), as she sighed to that and let them talk. Maggie then looked over at Tony as she shook his hand gently, as soon as he extended his hand. She listened to him before she herself spoke to him.

"Nice to meet you, Tony. I am Maggie Kimble! And thank you for the welcome! It means a lot to me, you are bery kind. To be honest I do need help, as I am lost as I have no idea where am I and how did I get here at all! It would be really nice if you could help me with that. If you could explain what had happened to me and why, that would definitely help,"

As soon as Maggie said she noticed the other guy as she watched him closely. She picked up an eyebrow at him confused. Maggie looked at the others and back at him as she listened to him closely. She wondered what was up with the guy, as he seemed way too excited. To Maggie at least.

"Hello to you too! Um, dudette? Not sure it is away to call someone but ok. Nice to meet you, 90s kid and interesting name you got there! I am Maggie Kimble, and thank you. That is good to know! And if you are the good guys then will do. Besides I am rather stuck here, at least for now anyway,"

[Mrs. Angela Potts]

Nani glanced at 90's Kid and chuckled at his vocabulary. Sometimes it was like he spoke another language. She smiled as Tony as well.

"Hello Tony. 90's Kid." said Nani.

She paused at maggie's words.

"We don't want to cause a panic. But you appear to not be from around here so that means we can let you in on the truth." said Nani.

Nani smiled glad to be backed up by Angela.

"You see an evil scient built a device that pulled people from other universes and times to this one. Some are from the ancient past and some are from the future with aliens and space ships. It sounds impossible but before this war it would have sounded impossible to me too. I've made a lot of good friends here and met someone I love. I wouldn't have had that without this war so some good has come out of it." said Nani.

She sighed.

"A war has started here. There was two armies but the villain armies split in two so now we have three armies fighting in this war. Our army's made up of heroes and even villains. or former villains. They wish to help us. Some wish to return to their worlds one day while others wish to stay to with their new loved ones or friends they've made here." said Nani.

She knew she'd go back with Lilo but hoped Morpheus would come with them. She didn't want to ever have to say goodbye to him if she could help it. She'd rather live in this world's version of Hawaii if she had to as long as she had her sister and her boyfriend.

Angela nodded to Tony.

"We certainly do." said Angela.

She looked at maggie.

"We have plenty of good food and drinks here. I'm sure there are some leftovers as we cook quite a lot. But if you want something fresh it would take so time for us to make it." said Angela.

She nodded as Nani decided to tell her the truth.

"The truth always is best but Nani was right that we were keeping things quiet for a reason." said Angela.

She slips back inside returning after a few minutes with drinks as well as some cold pizza she'd warmed up.

"It's leftovers but should make sure you don't go hungry. If you like sandwiches there's plenty of ingredients in the fridge too." said Angela.

[Tony Stark/Iron Man]

"Heya Nani, glad to see you make yourself our ambassador" Tony joked to Nani before chuckling to Mrs. Potts. After a small while of allowing Maggie to talk to nani and Mrs. Potts for questions and whatnot. Tony smiled and shook her hand before replying "What Nani and Mrs. Potts are telling you is true. You're in a war thanks to a transportive device made by Insano. Nobody knows what went through his head but he's helping Ask Thatguy take over. We want to keep this quiet to prevent chaos cause lord knows we don't need anymore problems from police or military. Can you keep this all between us miss?"
XXXXX

"Dudette is a expression, dudette. Like dude, or bud or whatever?" 90's Kid replied, confused that she was confused with his word play. The young man then replied with pumped fists "Oh we're totally the good guys. We're tubularocious! We kick bad guy butt and look good while doing it!"

[Deleted]

Maggie watched them all and sighed. She found 90's kid and Tony's style of speach weird but 90's kid more so. Maggie wondered about them. As they were adults but didn't seem to act that way often. If at all. Maggie glanced at Nani and then she looked at the guys and sighed to that once more. She had no idea what to think. By the way Nani seemed to react she was used to that, or at least it seemed that way to Maggie.

She watched Nani and then Tony and 90's kid, as shook her head to that. It was all way too confusing for Maggie, but those two(Tony and 90's kid) confused her just as much as the situation itself did. She looked at them all and sighed once more. Maggie couldn't understand the two much but was surprised that Nani could. She wondered how she could understand him, when she herself couldn't. Maggie undedstood the words but not the style and such. As adult her age male or female weren't called dude or dudette, unless in private without them present or such. Given that not all of them liked being called that way and all. Maggie surely didn't. Being called Ms was fine by Maggie if the person didn't know her name but other wise, she was rather be called by her name. No more nor less. Among other things that is. Which was exactly why Maggie was so confused, as not many spoke to her and in away as well as in general where she came from. She wasn't sure what to think of the guy even, due to the way he spoke and acted. Which was why Maggie reacted the way that she did in the first place. She wasn't sure how else to react. Maggie wasn't evil that was for sure. If anything she sas only confused. Maggie was very confused by that, to say the least. She didn't expect that rraction from him, that was for sure. Maggie hoped that the guy would speak differently than the way he spoke to her. However, clearly she was wrong, to say the least. Maggie wondered how old were the two guys. Especially the 90's kid, to say the least. Due to the way that he seemed to act by her, at least. If not for any other reason.

Maggie spoke again as she watched Nani and sighed to that, yet again. Maggie looked around and back at her. She then listened to Nani once more as she nodded in understanding. Maggie then continued to listen, before she spoke once more. She let her finish befote she spoke again. Maggie looked at them all and then back at her, while she listened to her closely.

"Oh, I see. That makes a lot of sense, in that case! Of course I seem not to be from around here. I am not from around here, which is why I don't seem to be from around here! I am from a normal world, more or less but not this world. Even if I do leave in Chicago but a different Chicago than this! Some what different anyway, and thank you for deciding to share the truth with me. It helps better with understanding the situation I am in, among other things,"

She listened to what she said next, as she looked between Nani and Mrs Potts. Maggie then watched nani once more as she was shocked and confused by what she heard from her. She looked down for a bit and than back at her once more. Maggie wasn't sure what to think or believe bit she definitely believed her, at least somewhat as it sounded like it could fit for an explanation. Even if she found it very weird and crazy, to say the least. However, Maggie doubted that an explanation to the situation could be normal, as the situation wasn't normal. The longer that passed she was more and more sure that it was real but not logical so. Maggie agreed so, that it sounded impossible, as it sure did but she also knew it was true. She angry that some scientist did that to him. However, Maggie knew that it couldn't be thd fault of those she talked to, which was somethijg or so she thought, at least. For her it was something. Maggie knew that she could be tricked but somehow she doubted ot was the case, which was good enough for her as she didn't wish to be fooled or such. If she wasn't then it meant she could trust them, and that was a good sign. That was for sure, or so she thought as it was that way to her, at least.

"The scientist is crazy for doing that, in that case. He sure does sound evil and mental, crazy as well! He created a device that pulled people from all over the world? Why? What did hs or does he plan to gaib that way? He is going to be hated by many and eventually arrested. Doesn't be gets it? Some bad guys are so blind and fools, it's not even a word! And aww, that is something. It does sound like this war has good and bad to it! However, not many are that lucky, no doubt. Undortunately! But ot might get better for all, who knows but for most of us, if not all of us going back home would be best then staying here. That's for sure! Wars, well certain wars got good and bad to them, ironically but true! But all in all, all wars are bad no matter what. Better peace than war but unfortunately, it isn't always possible, due to the people in the world and the situations, surronding the reasons to have a war! If you survive it, you are lucky but the trouble is many die due to the war. Which is one of the reasons wars are bad, among many others! Sometimes they are needed. For freedom and stopping those who try to enslave you and such but no matter what, even for good reasons war is still bad but that is how life worms, unfortunately! Life tends to be rather complicated, to say the least. If things could be established with no wars, the world would be a better place, but unfortunately, it doesn't work that way but one day, it might! Who knows for sure, only time will tell us, on way or another way. I personally hope so, but I won't hold my breath,"

"I figured, as you said 'because of the war' and 'due to it' which pretty much implies to the fact that there is a war here or you won't use those kinds of words after all, and it clear that you do use them. It started with two and now 3? That sucks but isn't much unheard off. Where I come from enemies armies do split due to disagrement but rarely but it does happen, at times! Heroes is understandible but villains? Now that is new. I can honestly say that this is unexpected! Not saying you are a liar of course but it is still unbelieveble and definitely shocking too. And aww, I am sure! Once you find love or such, like have a family with someone or such it's hard to leave. Especially when it is in a new world or place or both! So it does make sense. That is just life! And good but shocking that villains would be fine with redeeming themselves and work with heroes, especially those they hurt in the past but it is also very impressive so. Wars are complicated as well as confusing so, what can we do, right? Even if villaind turning good and help good guys sound bizarre but isn't life weird that way as it is?"

Maggie watched Mrs Potts and Tony for a bit. After that, she watched just Mr Potts and listened to her when she spoke. Maggie listened to her more as she spoke to her. She nodded to her in understanding.

"Well, that sounds good. I am rather starving and thirsty right now! What do we have so? Sounds good to me. Left overs are good as long as they aren't a week or a month or so old, that is. As then it is very bad and not worse eating it and that is just a shame! As for fresh food, well even sandwichd, one or two would be more than enough, as it is, to be honest with you,"

She watched her once more as she listened to her once more. Maggie was glad that they trusted her with the truth. She was confused that they were cartoonish unlike her, so it took her by surise thar they lied to her without looking cofused about her. However, after they told her the truth Maggie trusted them officially. But then she saw a good reason to trust them. To say the least.

"Yeah, it sure is. And I can get that! I really do as I know how if feels but when you look the way you do and those you speak to look like me, that raises suspicion, don't you think? If you got away to blend in or such, then I think you might as well use it, to make it more believeble. Just saying! Or what you are trying to avoid will happen anyway. Which I am sure you rather it didn't, or am I wrong? I think the only way for you to blend way, is make yourselves look like the person you meet or sometging like that. It will do all of you some good, and will bring you less trouble, for sure! You don't have to use it but I think it will help you to better hide the situation. Unless you make yourselvs be like ghosts! That can also brlp you rather well,"

Maggie watched her and sighed to that, lost in thoughts. She looked at ths others for a bit and then back at Mrs Potts as soon as she came back. She listened to her and nodded to her in understanding.

"Thank you. That means a lot! That works as long as it's not too old that is. It is from yesterday, isn't it? I sure do hope so. It is better if that is the case! And what kind of drinks are those? I can't exactly figure it out. My brother is probably better than me at that! And pizza left overs is fine too,"

She watched them all. Maggie then shook Tony's hand with a smile, as she listened to him once more and nodded to him with understanding. She looked down for a bit and back at him once more.

"Alright then. Good that they are not lying but too bad it is the case so! And I get it but if you want it to work you need to find ways to make Mrs Potts and Nani look not the way they do. Or people who don't suppose to know, will know the truth, gurenteed! Just a heads up, no more nor less. As for me, no worries, I can keep a secret but you need to be careful just the same! Mrs Potts and Nani are great but to make sure that the truth doesn't come out you need people who look like me to greet people, unless they are cartoon than it is different but you still need to be extra careful,"

"I get it but it's not that polite to say it to strangers. Unless you two are friends or something like that, then it is different," Maggie explained, after she heard what the 90's kid said next and sighed to that.

She watched him closely, as she picked up an eyebros to what he said and did next. Maggie sighed to that and moved things out of his way as fast as humanly possible, so that he won't knock anything down. She also made sure that he won't hurt her either. Maggie had no idea if he would hit or knock something that way but she tried to be careful just the same. Just in case.

"I am glad to hear that but can you please be careful? I am on your side, no worries. So yes, I believe you! But do you mind? You can by accident hit someone that way or knock somethig down, so be careful. Alright? Can you do that for us? We don't need a mess. Especially, since it can draw too much attention to us and we are trying to avoid it after all! Remember? Didn't anyone ever tell you that before? If not, then you know that now. Which is better now than never,"

[Mrs. Angela Potts]

Nani chuckled as Tony arrived.

"I try to help when I can." said Nani.

She nodded as Mrs. Potts and Tony explained to her.

"It's just how he speaks. Not many people say dude or dudette anymore but it's just his way of saying hello. Although sometimes I think he has a language of his own." said Nani, glancing from Maggie to 90's Kid.

Nani took some pizza and water bottle. She chuckled.

"There's plenty left if you guys wants some. I swear Mrs. Potts, Brock, and the others feed enough for an army twice our size." joked Nani.

When the mention of disguises she shrugged.

"Like Mrs. Potts said those of us who look different like animated characters, animals or whatever we mostly stay in the house or hang out in the woods. While I'm sure there are disguises it's not always safe for us to leave the houses for long anyway." said Nani.

Mrs. Potts grinned seeing Tony joined them. In some ways, he reminded her of her master the prince.

"It takes to adjust I know. I'm from France in the past in my world. More medieval times compared to this time. We had wood stoves, fireplaces, and things like that. So being brought to another world in the future was shocking. But the people here are very kind and welcoming. Anything you don't know or understand we can explain to you. Or find someone who can." said Mrs. Potts.

She nodded.

"Yes. This war has been long and hard on many of us. Some have been hurt, some tortured. And we had one death but that was from one of the other armies. But war is never pretty. You are welcome to stay here for sanctuary if you don 't prefer to fight. I mostly cook and clean, and help look after the children members of the army. I don't fight myself." said Mrs. Potts.

She smiled and paused for a moment.

"There's water, juice, and some sodas. I think it's mostly root beer and dr. pepper. But there's more in the kitchen if you prefer something else." said Mrs. Potts.

She blushed at the teasing and compliments she got from Nani.

"I guess I'm used to cooking for a big staff at the castle. But I'm glad you like it." said Nani.

She paused with a shrug.

"I haven't really gone outside much to be honest. And Linkara and the others have created some kind of holographic stuff to disguise people before. I'm sure they could do it for us. We mostly just hang out in the woods or go to secluded beaches to be honest. I'm more worried of running into someone from the other armies and getting attacked so I don't leave either house much." said Mrs. Potts.

She bit into one of the slices of pizza taking a bottle of water as well.
