— Author's Summary
Timeslip
by Omega_93 is a Worm and Ward crossover.
Taylor Hebert can see the bonesaw coming down to open up her skull for inhuman experiments, but then everything fades to black. She wakes up in a tube, weak, dizzy, and vulnerable as a group of unknown Parahumans stare at her in shock and horror. While they treat her kindly, there is tension in the air, and only more confusion as a far older Imp and Bitch appear soon after...
