Bzzzzt. Bzzzzt. Bzzzzt. Wait, my alarm doesn’t go ‘bzzzt bzzzt’. It goes ‘ring ring’. Wha…? I wake up, bits of cloud bed stuck to me, and look around my room.

I think something from your world came through again!” I sigh. “And how do you know?” “Well, this lady’s tall, mean, dark, holes in her arms and legs, and is shouting something about…” “I am Queen Chrysalis!
