The Edge Of Nothing And Everything (Jump Starting The Universe)

At Blackie's insistence Wayne drove off the side of a mountain cliff right into the greenish tinted mixing zone on Gafcon-49. When it separated Amelia frantically pushed the red button on the front of the Jump Starter. A golden ring instantly formed near the front bumper of the Nomad and glided by with a whooshing sound. The cross over had deposited them into Volcanon's upper atmosphere where they found themselves plummeting into an enormous crevasse. An enormous volcano in the distance spewed poisonous gas and lava and chunks of rock the size of large houses. Wayne sat with his hands on the steering wheel and noticed the sides of the gorge were closing in quickly. Expecting to hit the bottom at any moment he closed his eyes as another ring whooshed by and the Nomad was bathed in a white haze punctuated by intermittent silver flashes. Someone nervously hummed a song as another ring flew though the haze just as the Nomad, along with Amelia, Mark, Blackie, Nita, Joules, and Wayne, and a large amount of band equipment vanished into thin air. Amelia screamed as the Nomad dropped out of the jump onto a desert plain and plowed to a stop in the deep yellow sand. They were momentarily bewildered by what had just happened and the realization that someone had tried to assassinate Joules, even if it meant killing all of them to do it. Two large moons hovered near the horizon in front of them as the sun went down on the mountains behind. Mesmerized by the scene before them with no idea what to do, where they were, or how to get back to Gafcon-49 they knew one thing for certain - repairing the Jump Starter was job one. Unknown to them, a centuries old dispute raged throughout the universe and before long they not only knew about it, they were smack dab in the middle of it. Every ounce of intelligence and luck would be needed if they were to survive. Wayne was sure something weird was about to happen - again - and it did. They would never have guessed they would go hopping around the universe with the most unlikely of new companions.
