"Maybe it can't speak to most people, but then again other animals can't talk to most people either. Whereas I can actually communicate with animals, to the point where my best friend for a long time was my pet cat...."
 
I turn my attention back to the ant, asking it questions about things like where we are. After a little more persuasion, it starts to answer in the form of rather high pitched screeching.

"What did it say?" Jason asked, watching the ant, still wrapped in Satoshi's black tail, not very visible, due to the tail being the same colour of the ant, making it near-invisible.
 
"We're in a place called The Synaps, though I think the injured girl said that before. Apparently it used to be very similar to our world in terms of what it looked like, but something happened a while ago that corrupted it. The ants are protective of their territory because they don't want anything else to happen to it, which is probably why they attack everything else that moves, including us. Oh, and this particular ant's name is Paul."
 
"It has a name...? Well then... ask... Paul... what happened. He said something happened, but what?" The cat said, staring at the ant in his tail.
 
A few questions and some more screeching later, I say, "He doesn't seem to know for sure, but not so long ago, he doesn't know exactly when, all the plants and vegetation started dying for no reason, as if from some sort of disease, except for plants. Which is why everything around here looks dead. The same wasn't true of the animals, they started to mutate instead. Like evolution, only really sped up. It doesn't make a lot of sense, honestly."

(Sorry I disappeared for a while, I had to do stuff for my Dad)

"So... for some strange reason, everything died. Yaaaaay." Satoshi growled, annoyed for some reason. He released the ant from his tail.

"It's not very useful information, I guess. Though since we've ended up here it could be linked to something from our world?" Actually, it sounds remarkably similar to the virus from our world that wiped almost everyone out... I wonder if the two are connected?
 
"That would be confusing... What would you say it would be linked to? I'd say an ant hill filled with angry mutant fire ants." Satoshi said, staring at the odd regular mutant shadow ant who was apparently named Paul.
 
"There's more than just the ants involved in this you know... If anything, it'd be linked to the virus outbreak back in our world. The two events sound quite similar."
 
"Ok... so... it's a dimension-travelling virus that mutates ants. Fabulous. So... if they are linked, does that have anything to do with everybody getting chucked into a land filled with shadow ants?" Satoshi muttered to himself, questioning why there were so many ants...
 
(Ask Toffee.)
The regular mutant shadow ant crawled over to the bleeding person, finding the red coloured blood odd, as his was black. He let out a strange noise, trying to alert one of the people the person was still bleeding.
 
The ant hissed, backing off from the person, seeing the spasms as a method of attack. "Umm... what the hell are you doing?" Satoshi asked, confused.
 
"Agghhh! Don't hug Paul to death!" Satoshi growled, attempting to rip the ant out of the bleeding winged persons hands, his tail swishing left and right angrily.
