[Hero Inside Alternative Universe:]
You lived in the City of San Francisco, and over the last couple of months things have been getting pretty wild around town. As superheroes, like actual superheroes started appearing out of nowhere. That would already be crazy on its own, but what made everything even more insane was that it seemed those superheroes were summoned and controlled by normal everyday people. Like you or me…
These people who could use that imagination to summon superheroes from comic books were called ‘readers’, pretty self-explanatory. But what was weird was that they could only summon superheroes from books created by some guy named Scott… Anyway, you didn't really have to worry about any of that. All you had to do was keep your head down and stay out of trouble... Little did you know, trouble would find you.
-San Francisco, Your Humble Abode-
It seemed like a normal average day, you got up, you got ready, you went to work. Nothing was out of the ordinary. At least, it wasn't until you were on your way home… As you were walking down the street towards your house, it seemed like out of nowhere a comic book just fell from the sky. Curiosity getting the better of you, you grabbed it. Putting it in your bag and deciding to take it home.
After arriving home, you set your bag down and when to get something to eat. Only for you to completely forget about the comic book and spend the next couple hours doing stuff. But eventually you remembered the book and headed downstairs opening your bag and pulling the comic book out… Looking down at the corner it was indeed by Scott. Which meant that if you used your imagination you could bring this hero to life.
The hero in question was named ‘Mummy Girl’, a scantily clad woman only covered in bandages with blue skin and a bunch of Egyptian symbols tattooed on her body. If you didn't know any better you'd say this was from something different than a comic book… But curiosity getting the better of you yet again, you walked over and took a seat on your couch, opening up the book.
You begin to slowly read through the pages, only half paying attention. Yours eyes scanning over the words as quickly as possible. You weren’t really a big comic book guy if you're being honest… Though as you begin to get more engrossed in the book. A blue light suddenly started to illuminate from the pages as out of nowhere the hero appeared in front of you.
Mummy Girl: “Who has summoned the daughter of the Almighty Pharaoh?”
She said as her body assembled in front of you. Damn, she was just as curvy in real life as she was drawn in the book. Not that you minded of course… It seems your imagination was good for something after all. Now you had summoned your very own hero to do your bidding. Just like those people on TV…
As you continued to sit on the couch and look at her, she looked back with a raised eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest. She had been brought to life not even a minute ago and you were already staring at her. Typical… After a couple more seconds her bandages eventually began to float around her and she coughed to get your attention.
Mummy Girl: “Ahem!... I repeat, why have you summoned me? I'll have you know I am far too important to be summoned to some peasant’s living room…”
Her eyes glanced around the room, taking in how boring and not fancy it seemed. After all, she was the daughter of the Pharaoh. She was used to a certain type of superior architecture and decor. Though she would admit, your couch at least looked somewhat up to her standards… And you looked pretty respectable, unlike her last reader. He was a real piece of work, that’s for sure.
