"Psst...". "Wake up..." Bibi whispered.
My eyes slowly fluttered open. I was laid out on the couch after last nights... events.
Bibi knelt over me, running her fingers through my hair. She sat back on her heels and smiled.
"Damn. Ms. Dawson really did you in last night", said Bibi.
I sat up, my eyes squinted. I tried to adjust to the light shining in through the windows in the living room.
"Good morning," I yawned, raising my arms to stretch.
Bibi planted a kiss on my cheek and stood up. She was wearing a sports bra and shorts.
"I'm about to go on a run, but I have great news! If you go down to the University there's someone who may be able to help you with that remote thingy. Professor Keating is like a super-genius and she's your best bet at getting that thing fixed".
She walked into the kitchen for a moment and then came back holding a water bottle and a pen with paper. She scribbled on the paper for a moment and then handed it to me. "That's the address to Professor Keating's lab, its only a couple blocks down the road".
I stood and gave her a kiss as she embraced me. "Thank you," I said, "See you later?".
"Of Course," she replied. We shared another kiss and she gave my package a pat.
She turned around and headed out the door, her tail swinging side to side. "Man. She's got a nice ass," I thought to myself.
Once BiBi had left I quickly got dressed and headed out to find the lab. As I strolled through the city, I realized that it was quite similar to my own universe. Sidewalks and trees, fire hydrants, taxis and other cars but everything seemed slightly more advanced. I wonder what they're doing right.
I strolled along the sidewalk, still getting the same stares and gasps. I eventually found the building. A large brick structure with blacked out windows. Strange... I hope Professor Keating isn't batshit crazy.
I walked up to the large double doors. There was no door handle. I looked over and spotted a gray box with a button and a small camera. I pressed what I thought was a buzzer and waited. After a minute or two, the doors slid apart and opened on their own. I was met with a long industrial hallway. Cement floors and dim lighting.
Continuing on, I followed along the long corridor. My guard was up. What the hell had I gotten myself into?
I came to elevator doors. They chimed open, the overhead light flickering. I stepped in. The interior of the elevator was sheet metal, bare as can be. No buttons or indicator to what floor I was on. I gulped as the doors creaked shut with me inside.
The elevator dropped with uncomfortable speed. I shuddered at the sudden movement as I could feel myself descend. The elevator began to slow and the doors slid open with a chime.
Almost as fast as the doors opened, I was met with a bright light shining in my eyes. "Slight pupil dilation... no clear concussion or cognitive affect..." rambled a feminine voice. The light moved to the left of my field of view and my eyes followed. In my peripheral vision, I saw a figure of a woman.
"Yes, yes. No clear adverse effects of multidimensional travel..." the woman said. This woman must be Professor Keating.
"Hell-..." I started.
As my mouth opened to greet Professor Keating, a piece of metal met my tongue and stopped my sentence. Professor Keating had my tongue pressed down to the bottom of my mouth and was shining her light inside.
"No sign of any drastic physiological differences," she muttered to herself.
She released my tongue and took a step back, raising a device towards me. I couldn't make out her face as my eyes adjusted but she had some type of mask over her face. Her device hummed as she slowly moved it up and down. The device chimed and an electronic voice uttered, "Safe".
"You carry no multidimensional virus or bacteria," she stated, taking off her protective mask.
Professor Keating was quite tall, my neck angled upwards to make eye contact. I looked at her mouth, noticing the sharp teeth. She was clearly a lioness, as royal as they come. I felt the adrenaline rushing through my veins, the presence of such a grand being making my fight or flight rage inside.
From top to bottom, she was stunning. Feline ears atop her head, her golden fur was short and looked like millions of fragile strands of gold. Her fur covered her face and snout which ended with a pink nose. Her eyes were large and lined with a black color, almost like a natural eyeliner and mascara. Her pupils were sharp and her iris a hazel color, sitting behind large spectacles.
She was wearing an oversized lab coat with many stains on it. She had it buttoned from top to bottom but knowing this place, there were bound to be some serious assets hidden underneath that lab coat.
"Follow me please," she said.
