Alexandra spent what was left of her life's savings on an opportunity to get far, far away from the routine and cycle of the American south. Leaving behind what's left of her family and friends, and starting a new life on the other side of the nearest Mirror Glass with her truck.
Taking a distance hauling job with a small freight dispatch company, its now her job to bring supplies and materials across the country where the otherwise robust rail network can't reach, or freight that the others refuse to move. It is a little odd that the company only has a handful of employees, but the pay's good... what could go wrong?

Set prior to, and during the main series of G4 in a slowly expanding AU writing project, the story and wider AU will generally keep pace with the show's big narrative keypoints, but otherwise be off doing its own thing, divergence will be steady, but limited for much of the story. How cohesively linear it will end up being is still up in the air.
Proofreading and Editing by Mahazkei, Thaddeus Reynolds, and Saccharine Affliction
Rated T for now
Does this story have anything to do with Alice: Through the Looking Glass?

No, it does not. There's some tangential inspiration from the 'Journey of the Space Bubble' series by John Ringo and David Weber, in which glasslike portals start showing up across earth and the universe at large, which does use names that invoke Lewis Carol for book titles and references(most notable 'Into the Looking Glass' the first book), but there's also a bit of stargate, and other bits spread around that have influenced my want to write and work on this AU.
There are, however, no current planned crossovers with any established settings other than the real world and ponies.
