Sometimes suffering is just suffering. It doesnât make you stronger. It doesnât build character. It only hurts.

Anafenza was still gawking in awed silence when the three women stepped off the lift and onto the main control room of the ship â the âbridge,â the Commander had called it â as the other officers sat at their positions, preparing the shipâs systems to send them home.
Ana had since changed into a similar jumpsuit as the Commander, though it was completely black with no special color. Â Sheâd tried to ask for pink, but that wasnât an actual color for a uniform. Â Still, she had the top off, the arms tied around her waist, and was sporting a pink âsports braâ the Commander had decided to compromise on and allow her to wear. Â The badge with her linkpearl pressed to the center was pinned on one of the sleeves around her waist.
She moved along one side of the bridge, stopping behind a Miqoâte man seated there.  âThis is Lt. MâRal, my operations officer.  Heâs tying our chronometric sensors to the transporter in hopes that we can send you to your appropriate time periods using the residual aetherâŠâ
âHeâs a Miqoâte!â Anafenza exclaimed in surprise, smiling wide.
The three others looked at her in surprise.  MâRal looked slightly confused, then shook his head.  âEr, no.  Iâm a CaitianâŠIâm not sure what a Miqoâte isâŠâ
Anafenza bit her lip and shook her head.  âSorryâŠitâs a race on my world.  You lookâŠvery similarâŠâ
The man nodded.  âThat is alright; Iâm not offended.â  He pointed on the screen.  âRight now, there is a large flow of this âaetherâ that we are still able to detect.  It is branching from a central location along three distinct paths.  Weâre working out how to use those paths to transport you to those physical locationsâŠâ
A woman in a blue-shouldered uniform stepped forward. Â She had a pattern of spots that went from her temples down her neck. Â âAnd weâre using this shipâs chronometric navigational scanners to help transport you to your proper times.â
The Commander nodded. âLadies, this is Nizeri Sano, my science officer.  AndâŠyeah, thatâs the plan weâre developing.  Itâs nothing weâve ever tried or even considered trying beforeâŠâ
âAnd if it fails?â Stormy asked.
Sano shook her head.  âWe would maintain our lock and pull you back to Rafale.  Youâd be stranded here most likelyâŠâ  She tapped the panel on the wall, bringing up a new display for the women to look at. It showed the aether trails, ending at three distinct dots.  âRight now our present location, Earth, and your world are equidistant from one anotherâŠboth in space and in time.  This is a phenomenon that justâŠshould not be possible.  That all three of you would also be existing and have these connections, and wander to these specific locations at the same time isâŠa once in a lifetime experience.  ButâŠâ She tapped the display, and it began to move, showing a passage of time.  âWe are drifting out of this sync phase.  The longer we go without executing this plan, the greater the risk of you not making it home.  If we donât do this by tomorrow nightâŠâ
âThen weâre stranded in your universe,â Stormy finished. Â Her face fell, her excitement now crashing with a reality of not getting home. Anafenza felt a similar pain in her chest at the thought of not making it home.
The Commander must have noticed this. Â She smiled a little, then patted them both on the back. Â âWell, if we only have till tomorrow night, letâs go celebrate. Â Câmon; weâll go to Hurricane Halâs.â

âWicked white, Angan, not again! I told yeâ already, we donâ âave no berry fruits ye be after!â
Angan tilted head to the side, staring at the hume merchant in confusion. âBut I havenât asked for any berries, Varden. I was just coming for the daily supplies like always, for the Spagyrics. What is this about berries now?â The young drahn woman shook her head, her mop of unkempt black hair falling over her shoulder. This was the third time today on her daily rounds through the Musica Universalis that someone had been exasperated with her for some reason or another.
The hume pointed a fat finger at her. âAnâ another thing, how the bleedinâ âells âre ye changinâ yer hair so damned fast like? It ainât natural it ainât! Ye look a sight better now than yeâ did just a bell ago, thaâs fer sure. Â Bleedinâ bright pink as a pixie, as if we didnâ âave enough bright colors ta stare at in the sky! But the answerâs still âno,â so donâ think of addinâ â â
âBerries to the order, no, I got that. Pink hair? Me? Have you been drinking again, Varden? Itâs only the eighth bell in the morn!â She took the sack of vials with an annoyed âthank youâ and turned to walk away, shaking her head.
All morning, her usual rounds had led to one odd encounter after another. Pink hair. Barely dressed. Smelling of seaweed and âwetâ â whatever that smelled like â and always, it seemed, just a bell or two ahead of her.
It was difficult in a town like the Crystarium to be mistaken for someone else. Sure, the occasional dwarf was hard to tell apart, and the zun all looked alike anyway, but there were so few people left in the world to begin withâŠwellâŠit was difficult to find someone that would look or sound so similar to you that people youâd known for years could mistake you.
âWhat bloody sinner is going around acting like me,â Angan wondered aloud, making her way to the next stall. She paused, thinking her route again. The imposter was further ahead of her by at least a bell; what if she cut her off at her final stop? Â Angan hurried out of the markets to the aetheryte, then down the steps to the Horotorium. It was usually her last stop, so she could go to the library for a new book, and then take the aetheryte back to the Exedra. She hurried down the stairs, her powerful tail swinging behind her.
In the Horotorium, no one seemed to notice anything amiss with her presence, other than noting how oddly *early* she was. âAnd youâre sure, there hasnât been another drahn that looks like me down hereâ she asked the botanists.
âNo one except you, Angan. Is something the matter?â
She shook her head, scratching behind her horn a moment in thought. âThanks anyway,â she replied, turning away. She approached the Cabinet of Curiosity, deciding she could at least get her new book while she was down here, and then return to her daily errands.
The doors of the great library swung open in front of her, and she looked up in time to see â
She blinked.
She saw herself blink back at her. At least, it could have been her, if she had decided to put a flower in her hair and color it bright pink. Or if she had decided to dress as if she were cavorting on a stage in Eulmore.
Angan raised a finger, pointing at the other woman. âYou!â She took a threatening step towardsâŠwell, herself. âI have been looking all over for -!â
The other woman went wide-eyed, then made a dash for the nearby aetheryte. Her hand reached out and she was gone in a flash, just as Angan managed to hustle to close the gap with her. She cried out in frustration; the woman could be anywhere in the Crystarium now, or even leaving.
But there had been no mistaking that faceâŠthose hornsâŠthe tail even. Her eyes had been ringed yellow, like AnganâsâŠthe patterns of scales covering her. The woman could have been her twin, had Angan not known better.
âWho the hells do you think you are,â she said to no one in particular. âHow did youâŠwicked whiteâŠâ
At that moment, Angan thought it may be wise to finish her errands in the markets â the sooner she finished, the sooner she could enjoy a much-needed drink.
Anafenza awoke with a start. She blinked her eyes, looking around in confusion. Â She wasnât in her bed â the fact that she was dry gave that fact away, since sheâd long ago submerged her cot in the tub to sleep in. Â She slowly sat up, taking in her surroundings.
She could hear a steady drip from overhead, echoing through the space she was in. Â Stalagmites and stalactites filled her view, so she knew immediately she was in a cave of sorts. Â Turning her head more she saw and recognized a sight that made her think she was still dreaming. Â Shrouded in darkness, a large tree choked out by a blood-red vine that disappeared among the branches.
âJessikaâs tree,â she murmured, half-asleep still. Â âAm I still dreaming?â
âIf you are, this is one helluva weird dream,â came a voice beside her.  Ana jumped, whipping her head around.  A blue-skinned woman sat up, blinking sleepily.  Her face was speckled with bright-blue spots, and her long blue hair fell down behind her and onto the ground.  She looked around, and Ana could see her pointed ears for a moment, reminding her of an elezen.  Though, this woman didnât have the same lankiness to her; if anything, she was a blue hyur with pointed ears.  Yet, Ana thought, she seemed familiarâŠ
âWhere are we,â she asked, looking at Ana again. Â âAnd why are you naked?â
Anafenza sighed and rolled her eyes. Â âIâm always naked. Â You still have clothes on, donât worry.â
The other woman looked down and back up, nodding, then looked back around the space. Â âFair. Â What is this place?â
âIâve only ever seen it in my dreams,â Ana admitted, still looking around.  âI thought the tree represented my soul, and the vine wasâŠa curse I had inherited.â
The blue womanâs eyes widened, and she gave a low whistle as she looked at the tree.
The two women sat in silence, not sure what to do next, not sure if they were dreaming or if this was real. Finally, Ana cleared her throat.
âAnafenza.â
The blue woman turned and looked at her in confusion. Â âI beg your pardon?â
âMy name,â she replied. âIâm Anafenza. Â Or just Ana.â
The blue woman nodded in acknowledgement, then offered a hand to Ana. Â âJess. Â Jessica St. Peter, but you can call me ââ
âJessiy,â came a third voice, and the two women turned to look as a third woman stepped from behind the tree. Â Ana gasped â she was wearing black pants and a black top, the shoulders of which were white. A familiar arrow-shaped pendant was attached to her chest. Â But most striking was her resemblance to Jessica: blue skin, bright blue spots, blue hair and eyes. Â If not for the noticeable age difference, Ana would have guessed they were twins.
Jessica noticed the similarity too and gasped.  âHowâŠwhoâŠwho are you?â
The third woman took a breath, offering a small smile. Â âCommander Jessica St. Peter.â
Anafenza and the first Jessica both went wide-eyed. Â The second Jessica shrugged.
Finally, the first Jessica â the younger of the two â coughed a laugh.  âWellâŠif weâre not dreamingâŠwhat the hell is going on?â
