      Crush and Pound

      *

      Crush stepped through the doorway that Revalus had opened, and he came out into a positively white and sterile environment on the other side. The surroundings were so white that it messed with his vision. When he placed his foot down on the floor ahead, he could not tell visually where the floor started and ended. After several such blind steps, he began to gain some trust in where he was headed, and Pound followed in behind with the same cautious reluctance. They were wearing the robes that Revalus had given to them, and they walked many steps away from the door into the unknown.

      Where are we? Pound asked, and Crush turned around and shook his head in reply.

      I’ve no idea, he said, and the cat-man stopped suddenly while he looked down at his feet standing on nothing but white. Square tiles formed ahead, and they were able to begin to see the perspective of distance at their feet. Everywhere in which they turned to look around themselves, though, they could only see white and the grid lines formed by the tiles. There was nothing significant on the horizon where the grid lines converged, and they walked on for many minutes in a straight line of tiles toward that horizon until they had traveled for what felt like a mile. Crush led the way, and when he had counted two thousand steps, he stopped in the center of a tile. Pound was not expecting the sudden halt in the pace, and he almost ran into his partner. As it was, he stepped on the heel of the cat-man’s shoe.

      Sorry, I wasn’t expecting you to stop so suddenly, he explained to Crush, and Crush held a finger to his lips, calling for quiet. Pound did as he was told and also carefully lifted his foot from the back of Crush’s shoe. He looked up and around at the endless surroundings, or lack of surroundings, if the white represented nothing. And really, there was nothing to see in his opinion. Pound was bored with the stale scenery, and he crossed his arms as he waited patiently for Crush to start moving again. Crush turned all the way around toward him, but his gaze extended to the space behind Pound where they had originated. Crush’s eyebrows rose in wonder, and Pound also turned on his heel to find that the doorway that had brought them there was no more than a couple of steps away.

      How can that be? Pound asked aloud, but Crush only sighed in reply as he, too, stared at the empty gateway.

      Don’t worry! You’re almost there! a voice sounded behind them. This time, they jumped around on both feet to find an elbow-high white table with an older gentleman behind the counter. He was clothed in white robes and seated. And, here you are! the gentleman said with a grin. Crush squinted his eyes at the man as he considered the man, and a low growl bubbled up through his voice box.

      Who are you, and what is this place? Crush asked. The gentleman’s eyes rose, and he smiled.

      You know me, he said to Crush. Or maybe, I should say that I know you. Crush’s suspicion eased, and he nodded his head, letting the angry growl soften to a purr.

      Captain Noggin, Crush mumbled, and the gentleman stood to his feet behind the counter and began turning pages in a schedule book.

      Oh, goodness, yes, and you are the angels from earth, here to visit someone, Captain Noggin said as his finger landed on a time slot in the schedule.

      Angels? Crush thought to himself as he looked down at the robes that he wore. Interesting.

      Figgus and Branchus from Stratus, yes, and who is it that you would like to see today? Noggin asked. Several names shot through his mind, but Crush quickly settled on the one name that he had had on his mind for quite some time recently.

      Sherry Lance, sir. We are here to visit Sherry Lance, Crush said to Noggin. Pound had not had a chance to speak, and his mental concentration peaked at the mention of their former friend and comrade. She had failed to return from the battle with Drakthos, and they had believed her to be dead. Crush studied the countenance of Captain Noggin carefully, measured him up, and he was convinced in his own mind that this place where they found themselves was no parlor trick or illusion. They were
