NeS3 Post 100 turns to Antarctica where a second Newb, referred to as Newb 2.0, is searching for an artefact that would restore her lost memories. The KGB was already known to experiment with cloning, through The Last True Evil project, and it is now revealed that Newb has similarly been cloned. This clone was 'updated' whenever Newb of the NeS Heroes would fall asleep, which she often did any place any time, and Newb's memories would transfer to Newb 2.0. Newb 2.0 had come to the correct location, Antarctica, that the heroes were meant to come to, but they had arrived in the Arctic in NeS3 Post 90. Newb 2.0, however, as another agenda as she locates what she calls the Cold as Ice Cave. She has been joined, seemingly at random, by a cybernetic great dane named Mutt, who is a hyper-intelligent dog, capable of speech. They avoid traps inside the cave until they see a crystalline heart. Soon as she touches it, they vanish. Newb, in the Arctic, wakes up with Muttt, who explains that the two Newbs have been merged and that he was brought along with her to the Arctic. That is when Losien asks what the hell just happened.

We all know, the KGB were KNOWN for making clones. Sooooooo, the possibility of a clone Newb was always out there (even if you missed it). And that is where our story begins. Whilst Newb was, by all means, present and accounted for in her journey with Losien and the two dweeb robots (what is with the nurses outfit!?), but what they didn’t know was that a clone of Newb was active and hunting in Antarctica for a secret artifact which would restore her memory, and possibly more. Those idiots were supposed to be here by now but her intel revealed they were traveling to The Arctic. Of course they were, visiting Santa no doubt, erasing their names from the troublesome Naughty List. But in the meantime, Newb 2.0 has been battling the cold IN THE CORRECT LOCATION! Her journey started when she woke up cuddling a great dane. Despite the clearly necessary warmth this mut was providing her she was horrified by the situation, the mut had a pretty good argument for sticking together though. Oh yeah, the dog could talk. Okay, that’s an understatement. This dog was smart. And I mean SMART. Where Mut came from is a mystery, something about a sanctuary? Mut was an artificial biological super intelligent Great Dane, who so helpfully pointed out that their chances of survival were better together and seeing as they both turned up here together, why the hell not? Anyway, I digress. Newb and Mut had been basically walking around looking for this artifact. How they ended up there together was purely accidental and coincidence, unless someone had planned this all along? With their wits and smarts they discover a secret cave hidden deep within the depths of The Cold As Ice Cave. Inside which they believed was an ancient artifact which would restore Newbs memory. Newb 2.0 knew she was a clone, but received regular ‘intel’ which kept her up to date on the original Newb’s activities. I say intel, she has dreams. What Newb 2.0 doesn’t know is that Newb has a habit of falling asleep, this is when the information gets transferred. The extent of Newb 2.0’s intel relies on the naps of a Newb on the other side of the world. Newb 2.0 also had no idea that the ancient artifact would also restore her powers (what powers you say!?). Newb only knew that the answers to questions she carried around with her in the quietest of moments would be answered once she found it. She had been wandering around the Antarctic for some time now, but they had finally found it: The Cold As Ice Cave buried deep within the heart of Antarctica. There wasn’t much of a battle to get in, no booby traps of excellent displays of fighting necessary. It was just there, calling to her. A column of ice stood before her with a diamond heart placed at its centre, beams of light reflecting in all directions. She slowly creeps towards it, Mut at her side, and as she reaches forward to touch it something magical happens. Intense memories flood her brain, she knows what to do now. Suddenly, a giant beam of cosmic energy, like a giant hand reaching from the sky and dragging her across the world, bursts forth and from which, Newb 2.0 and Mut are catapulted across the other side of the world. Here, Loisen and the gang witness a shimmering shuddering light propell Newb into the air and a ghostly figure of herself melds into her before she drops to the ground like the sack of potatoes she is. Groaning and blinking, Newb awakens and stands up, a great dane appearing at her side.


Mut: Well, I do say, what an unpleasant experience.

Newb: wh… wh… what the !?

Mut: As I explained earlier dear, your two life forms have been paired like the miraculous beans on toast, you are now one.

Newb: again … WHat!?

Mut: sigh, you are one person again Newb, you got the artifact.

Newb: but I don't feel any different Mut

Losien: erm… excuse me? What the hell is happening?

It is up to Newb and Mut to explain all that has happened in The Antarctic.

Britt's Commentary[]

"Much of this post was devised by Robyneverardd the Writer in a state of ignorance on events in the Story, not knowing that Newb had remained with the NeS Heroes. She had believed that Newb must have been left behind. This led, during conversation, to the post being altered to include a second Newb. All of this was a coincidental fit with events of The Last True Evil character, who was also a KGB Agent." ~ Britt the Writer
