My best friend Alicia was visiting me at UW-Oshkosh. We went down to the theater to watch Fantastic Four. There was us and this other kinda dorky kid named Riley in there. There was an explosion on screen and then everything went dark. When it got light again, we were in a living room on the floor.
"What happened?" I asked rubbing my head. I was wearing jeans, a Scooby Doo t-shirt, and my Johnny Storm sweatshirt and my blue and white all star shoes. I looked around. "Where the hell are we?"
"New York, I think."
"What makes you think that?"
"Doesn't this place look familiar to you, at all?" Alicia asked.
I looked around again. "I dunno. I guess so."
"Look again." I looked around again. My eyes stopped on a very cute man. "Oh, no. It can't be. We can't be. It's not possible." We turned around and saw the porthole back to Oshkosh. I saw Riley. I started shouting. "Hey, you. What's your name?"
"Riley."
"Listen you've got to get us out of here."
"I'll try. Sit still. I'll be back." He ran off.
"Hey, you can't just leave us here. Come back." Alicia shouted.
"Yea, come back you coward. Get us out of here." The man heard the shouting. He came to see what all the noise was. I picked up a wrench on the floor. I threw it into the porthole. It sent a ripple through it and sent us flying. The man tried not to laugh.
"What the hell happened?" I said.
"I think it went through."
"Yea, but I don't think I'm willing to go through, are you?"
"Not a chance. There's got to be another way."
"Yea. Let's hope." The man came over. Alicia was already up and looking through the Porthole. A hand was in front of my face. I looked up and saw the man who I had a crush on since I first seen Fantastic Four smiling down at me. I took his hand and he pulled me up.
"Are you alright?"
"Yea."
"How did you get here?"
"That is a very good question." I said. "I wish we knew the answer." Alicia had come back by us.
"Mandi, we should call Nick or Matt. They can get us out."
"Nick's in Milwaukee and Matt's in Green Bay. How do you think they are going to get here?"
"It was just a suggestion."
"I'm Johnny."
"I'm Mandi and that's Alicia." Johnny glanced at my sweat shirt and smiled.
"Fan? Huh?" I laughed.
"I thought you were cute." My face got red. "Did I say that out loud?" He laughed. We followed him.
He led us to the lab. "Hey Reed, we've got a problem."
"What? Did ya melt your car keys again, Sparky?"
"Very funny, lug head." Johnny said. "The problem is a teensy bit big, then melted car keys."
"How big?" Reed asked.
"What did you do now, Johnny?"
"I didn't do anything. And I find that insulting. The problem is that these two are here and they don't belong here and have no way of getting home."
"That is a problem." Ben said. We explained how we got there and followed the others to the TV to check it out. They set to work on finding out how to send us back. Johnny took Alicia and I sight seeing. We were with one of his friends, Jack. We were on top of the statue of liberty when it happened.
