Chapter Text
(Our story opens on a large bicycle wheel shaped base on a hostile alien planet)
(Inside is a laboratory, and out of a strange machine comes a short woman with long flowing orange hair in a bright yellow sundress and sunhat)
(The woman wakes up to find a tiny creature on her chest, said creature is a an almost perfect replica of her head with a red beanie on two brown boots)
Leggy: eeeeeyee
Daycare Worker Meggy: AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
(The Leggy gets picked up and thrown by another woman who’s near identical to daycare Worker Meggy if not for the Red beanie with headphones, white tee, tan cargo shorts, brown boots similar to leggy’s and the fact she’s in a wheelchair)
Original Meggy: Get out of here you, Okay you're awake, you good, great, come along now. (picks up DW Meggy from the machine)
DW Meggy: What's going on, AM I DEAD??
Meggy: Jury's still out on that one, but that's not important, what is important is that I need you to do something….
DW Meggy: STOP! Just, where am I, What's going on and WHY DO YOU LOOK LIKE ME?!?!?
Meggy: Well….
(An elevator pops in to reveal another orange haired woman in a brown blazer suit, hair in a bun, and glasses)
Lawyer Meggy: let me guess, panicked, confused, doesn't believe the situation either?? (Elevator leaves)
DW Meggy: THERE'S MORE!?!?!
Meggy: (Whispers) ugh thanks a lot Meggy, GET BACK HERE!!
(The elevator comes back with Lawyer Meggy and another Meggy in twintails wearing a black leather jacket and pink beret)
Mafia Meggy: I found the toolbox boss.
DW Meggy: I… I Think i'm gonna faint.
Meggy: faint later, elevator now. (pushes DW Meggy into the elevator)
(All four of the Meggies and leggy are all cramped up in the elevator)
DW Meggy: So there’s four..
Leggy: eeeyeee
DW Meggy:...five of you… of Me??
Mafia Meggy: Actually there's 6 of us.
Meggy: OH RIGHT, Where’s Coach Meggy?
Lawyer Meggy and Mafia Meggy: Training.

(We cut to another Meggy in a large bulky grey spacesuit)
Coach Meggy: (training)
(Coach meggy receives a transmission)
Meggy: Meggy you need to get back to base NOW, The sun's gonna rise any minute.
Coach Meggy: It is, how long have I been out here? (Looks out on the horizon)

DW Meggy: Wait… WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M NOT REAL?!?!?!
Meggy: Well it’s a long story that’s partially incomplete but…
Lawyer Meggy: That woman in the wheelchair made a bunch of clones of herself to do all the hard crap that she can't do because she’s handicapped.
Meggy: laying it on a bit thick here ME.
(The elevator arrives at a burning engine room)
Mafia Meggy: Alright then, nerd me carry the tools, (cracks knuckles) im goin in.

Mafia Meggy: Shooting guns all day made me know a helluva lot about guns, like gun types and how to repair them and hey guns are just tiny machines after all.
DW meggy: Okay, and the one with the glasses…

(Coach Meggy is running while avoiding bursting lava)
Coach Meggy: CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP AAHH
(An Interal appears, a wobbling mass of distortion)
Coach Meggy: (picks up a rock and Chucks it at the Interal like a baseball)

DW Meggy: d- d- d- I NEED TO CALL MY FRIENDS!!

DW Meggy: What?
Meggy: So this communications hub is partly busted but we did manage to get it to contact one of our friends, problem is its Mario and you and I both know he can be…. Obtuse.
DW Meggy: So you got me because…?
Meggy: The QC’s mind records show you have a really good relationship with him, probably even better than all of ours, so you must be able to get through to him and ask him to help us.
DW Meggy: well- uh- (face turns red) he has helped me out in the daycare a lot, and it’s been surprising to see him really care for the kids, it m- made him a good f- friend to me.

(another Meggy arrives in a black uniform and shorter styled hair)
Coach Meggy: Sorry guys I got- (gasps) A NEW MEGGY TO TRAIN
Meggy: Coach now is not the time for..
Coach Meggy: (Drags DW Meggy to a nearby room)
Meggy: Meggy WAIT!
Comms: Calling Mario
Coach Meggy: Alright, first things first, try lifting this barbell
(Coach meggy hands DW Meggy a barbell that she struggles to lift)
DW Meggy: sorry, i'm a bit out of practice with lifting heavy things.
Coach Meggy: Out of prac-?? Your Meggy Spletzer, Athletics are in your blood!
Coach Meggy: (grabs the barbell DW Meggy is holding and raises it above her head) With enough training you’ll be able to lift weights like these no problem. (Lets go)
(The barbell lands on DW Meggy’s head and knocks her out)

Mario: Hello_Its a me_Mario_and imma thank you for_calling_Mario
Coach Meggy: uuuh, whoops
Lawyer Meggy: (Runs into the room and looks over DW Meggy)
Meggy: She’s gonna be okay, right doc??
Lawyer Meggy: For the last time, I'M NOT A DOCTOR, I'M A LAWYER! If you want a Doctor Meggy that badly then make one.
Meggy: I Can't Make One, THE BASE ISN'T AT LEVEL 3 YET!!!
Mario: Hello_hey where'd everybody go
Meggy: (rushes over to comms) Hey Mario, long time no see, uhh, you look nice.
Mario: Editatiou
Subtitles: Wait, we are on a phone call, how do you know how I look?
Meggy:..... Uuuuh, Scuse me for one second
Meggy: (gestures Lawyer Meggy to get DW meggy awake)
Lawyer Meggy: (gestures Meggy to look behind her)
Leggy: (Munches on Rapidium, which then causes the Leggy to split into two Leggies)
Leggies: eeeeeee.
Meggy: and Leggy’s gotten into the Rapidium again, alright You (points at Mafia Meggy) keep trying to fix the engines, You (points at Coach Meggy) stall Mario while we try and wake up the other Meggy so she can talk to him.
Coach Meggy: Wait, He’s your friend from your timeline why can't you talk to him?
Meggy: Because he’s… well Mario, One day he’s a dumbass, one day he’s somehow the voice of reason, one day he tries really hard to do something, the other he tries really hard to do something stupid and bad, and the other he doesn't want to do anything at all, or do the opposite of what anybody tells him.
Meggy: It's just that he can be very inconsistent about the kind of person he wants to be on any given day.
Lawyer Meggy: Gee, why does that sound familiar?
Meggy: SHUT. THE F(woomy sound effect). UP.
Coach Meggy: (sighs) okay i’ll go talk.
Meggy: How much time is left?
Lawyer Meggy: (typing away on a terminal) Before the radiation of the sun kills us all, about 5 hours and 52 minutes, (looks back at the terminal) wait….
Lawyer Meggy: Make that 49 minutes
Meggy: Well, we can still work with that
Lawyer Meggy: You realize that we are all going to die in LESS THAN AN HOUR!!
Meggy: Wait, you meant just 49 minutes, i thought you meant 5… OH GOD WAKE HER UP NOW!
Coach Meggy: SERIOUSLY, you need to stop lounging around everyday and make something of your life!
Mario: MAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Subtitles: YOUR NOT MY MOM BITCH!!
Coach Meggy: Why I oughta-
Meggy: (Covers Coach Meggy’s mouth)
Coach Meggy: MMPMFHMPH
Meggy: (Whispers) okay maybe that wasn't the best idea
Meggy: Sorry about that Mario, things have just been stressful lately, whoops forgot something let me go get it.
Meggy: (looks towards Lawyer Meggy) Get Her Awake NOW!!
Lawyer Meggy: Well, I know what works in situations like this (Grabs a bottle of water and splashes it on DW Meggy)
DW Meggy: AAH- oh man I just this crazy dreee- its still going.
Meggy: (Wheels to DW Meggy) You need to talk to Mario before-
Mafia Meggy: Sup Red, Long time no see
Mario: Wait a minute
Meggy: -something like that happens, look if you don't talk to him and get him to save our asses the sun is gonna burn us all to death in 49 minutes.
Lawyer Meggy: 47
Meggy: FORTY SE- (inhales) 47 minutes
DW Meggy: (faints again)
Meggy: DAMMIT, Splash her again.
Lawyer Meggy: (sighs then splashes DW Meggy with water again)
DW Meggy: AAH-
Mafia Meggy: -Oh man, you have got to tell me about that Bob on fire story…
(The engine rooms makes an exploding sound)
Mafia Meggy: OH SHIT I FORGOT!! (Grabs Lawyer Meggy and pulls her to the comms) Talk to Red for me okay, byeee (runs off)
Lawyer Meggy: eh- (sighs) Hello Mario.
Mario: Oh you so good you got Mario confused.
Meggy: Look, I know it seems dumb that I brought you to life, or transported you from another dimension or whatever, just so I could have you talk to someone I already know who’s already my friend, but well… I'm in a crazy situation and I need all the help I can get. I know that sounds selfish but trust me, The Meggies I made here are all my friends, and I would never think of them or you as a tool or anything less. So please, for our sake help us out.
Coach Meggy: Hey wait, I'm the coach, I should be giving the inspirational speech
Meggy: NOT NOW!!
(the three of them hear a banging sound that they go and investigate)
(Lawyer meggy is banging her head against the comms room wall)
DW meggy: Is something wrong??
Lawyer Meggy: Sorry I forgot that every conversation with mario makes me want to BANG MY HEAD AGAINST THE WALL!!
Mario: Mario think you_coo-coo crazy
Subtitles: welp, Meggy’s gone mad, im hanging up

DW Meggy: Thanks it’s uh, Really nice to hear from you again. Look I need a big favor.

(all the Meggies are hanging out in the social room watching memes, While multiple Leggies are running around making squeeing noises)
DW Meggy: I uh- Still can't believe we are all still alive.
Mafia Meggy: I still can't believe Mario managed to get the D Batteries we needed to fix the engines, get it to us, and we all managed to fix the engines and get us moving away to escape the sun in less than 47 minutes.
Lawyer Meggy: 42
DW Meggy: Is it always like this around here??
Meggy: More or less, but we keep moving forward.
Coach Meggy: Because we are Meggy Spletzer. No matter how bleak the situation seems we always rise to the top and come out stro-

Lawyer Meggy: Im convinced this is hell.
