Radical Edward woke up. Her stomach was still bloated from her meal earlier. It was late evening around the twilight hour. Ein 2.0 was guarding not 40 feet away. She looked at her onmi-tool and typed a command on the transparent keyboard on the tool. Edward had been trying to learn the name of this world and that had required the omni-tool to scan the entire planet which took time.
When Edward had arrived in this dimension, she had restored the almost nonexistent satellite network she had found. Edward had used the satellite network to help her omni-tool scan the planet.

This world was called Walekilasa and it had been abandoned for a thousand years following a rather nasty war between an advanced civilization and their former slaves. Walekilasa had four major continents and a few dozen islands.

"Edward's belly is still working on the meal within it" said Edward raising to her feet. She spent several long minutes to play with her stomach. Edward rather enjoyed the way her bloated middle sloshed around. Edward grinned and typed at her omni-tool in a rapid fashion. A few moments later, a huge ice cream sundae appeared before Edward.
"Edward can do much better than that" said Edward, chuckling to herself. A few moments later the ice cream sundae had increased in size by tenfold. Ein 2.0 came over to investigate what was happening.

"It's Edward's masterpiece!" exclaimed Edward. The sundae towered over her and Edward eagerly climbed into it. Every bite was a different flavor to be certain and it took the prodigy a full ten minutes to finish the sundae.

"Edward is now all rolly-polly" giggled Edward as her stomach nearly filled the bowl of the sundae. She managed to climb out of the bowl by rolling back and forth until the bowl tipped over. As luck would have it she had landed right on top of Ein 2.0, who gave out a high whimper before being smashed to pieces.
"Oppsie" said Edward. "Edward is sure glad you're not the real Ein"

"Hello?" called out a voice.

Edward looked up as best as she could to see a young woman with wolf ears coming towards her.

"Hello, hello!" cried Edward as she climbed awkwardly to her feet. Her shirt rode up on her very large stomach. She regarded the wolf girl.

"And here I thought that Washu was a big glutton" said Wolf Ears coming right up to Edward.

Edward blinked and said, "You know crab lady?"

"Certainly I do" replied the woman. "I'm Holo the Wise Wolf. I'm one of the gods that ran the Dimensional Cafe"

"Oh" was all that Edward could say.

"And you're..... umm...." said Holo. "um...forgive me, I totally forgot your name"

"I'm Radical Edward" replied Edward, beaming away. "how did wolfie get here, Ed wonders"

"Wolfie girl...?" asked Holo in a faint voice with a smile playing at the corners of her mouth.

"Does Wolfie Girl want to come with Ed?" asked Edward. "Edward is on her way to meet a bunch of people who made camp not far from here"

"Yeah" said Holo.

The moment that Holo said that her ears perked up. Edward looked around as well. The two had heard a giant stomping sound somewhere out of sight.
Edward's omni-tool beeped a warning. Edward looked at it to see that something was coming their way. Something large.

"What was that?" asked Holo.
"Ed isn't sure but something is coming this way" replied Edward. "something large"

There was another stomping sound followed by another...and another.

"Those....are footsteps" said Holo slowly.

At that moment, a giant woman came into the clearing. The giant was naked but had no nipples or vagina. The giant came into the clearing with her eyes fixed on Edward and Holo. The giant made it four or five steps further until it stopped and grabbed its stomach as if in pain. The next few moments found the giant doubled over and it coughed a few times until a big wad of material came out of its mouth. The wad looked disturbingly like a hairball that a cat might throw up. The wad of material was nearly ten feet tall while the giant probably was at or near 50 feet tall. The giant threw up another wad, although it was much smaller.

"What the hell is that?" asked Holo.

Edward scanned it with her omni-tool.

"Well, according to this her name is Sasha" said Edward as she typed at the transparent keyboard. "seems like her body underwent some form of mutation...."

Sasha the giant climbed to her full height and walked towards Holo and Edward.

"She doesn't have a digestive system..." said Edward still scanning with her omni-tool. "she...doesn't have a gender"

"She looks hungry" said Holo. "don't you think we better run?"

"Hold on" said Holo, typing away at her device. "I think I can fix her..."

Holo looked over at Edward and the device surrounding her arm, and said, "That's a nifty little thing"

"A device of my own making" said Edward. "I call it an omni-tool"

Sasha the giant had came to a stop when she came within thirty yards of the pair. A bright green circle appeared on the ground at the feet of the giant. Sasha had bent over and examined the circle closely.
"What are you doing?" asked Holo.
"I'm rewriting her...DNA" said Edward.
Holo looked sharply at Edward. "You're what?!"

"Oh gosh" said Edward. "This is much more complicated than I expected this to be"

"What do you mean you're rewriting DNA?!" asked Holo. "why? How?!"

It became clear that Sasha was trapped somehow. It looked as if a force field was stopping her moving in any direction.

"How are you doing this?" asked Holo.

"Nearly done" sang out Edward, typing at her keyboard at a rapid pace.

It was a couple of tense minutes before the circle vanished from under Sasha. Sasha stood where she was as she looked around. It had been clear that Sasha was close to being mindless earlier but she definitely looked a bit more intelligent.

"Where am I?" asked Sasha in a harsh voice that reminded Sasha of a rusty door hinge.

"Hello?" called out Holo. "can you talk now?"

Sasha examined herself and gasped. "I'm a titan?! Since when did that happen?!"

"Hello!" bellowed Holo.

Sasha looked over at Holo and Edward.

"Try to calm down" said Holo.

"How can I talk now?" asked Sasha. "who are you two and where am I?!"

"What was the last thing you remember?" asked Edward.

Sasha had sat down on the ground and looked to be deep in thought. Finally, she said, "I remember being at this....underground?..... lab?....facility? There were people there experimenting with a serum that turned people into Titans. They were looking for..... someone royal?.....that's all I can remember. Now. Where am I and who are you two?"

Holo and Edward looked at each other.

"This'll take time to tell" replied Edward, sighing deeply.

****

Zaryre the android grimaced as she looked at the status screen of the prison. There had been an escape...actually, two escapes...in the past ten years. One escape had been a prisoner by the name of Heran Daras, guilty for the (alleged) rape and murder of his former lover, Ferrin Sovacca. The rape was never proven; the murder was definitely proven.
The other prisoner who had escaped was a notorious interdimensional thief by the name of Tensel D'Azizayl, who was a shape-shifter. The two escapes had been within days of each other.
The two criminals had been inplanted with trackers in case of escape. Zaryre typed up the identification numbers of both criminals and their trackers. The tracker on Heran wasn't functional which could only mean that Heran was definitely dead. The trackers couldn't be removed from a body; the tracker was rigged to explode when it came in contact with air.
The tracker on Tensel was active but she couldn't be tracked because she was no longer in this dimension.
"Oh boy..." muttered Zaryre.
