Jinx, Cassie, Charlotte and Kendra were in the middle of the woods in their hometown shooting a video. Kenny was Naruto, Char; Hinata, Cassie; Sakura, and Jinx was Sasuke, who was also holding the camera while they all searched for a good location to start filming.
"What about here?" Cassie asked. Upon looking around, they decided that it didn't look enough like the training field. They continued walking, the majority not really paying that much attention.
Kenny abruptly stopped walking, and all eyes went to her.
"Hold up… w-what is THAT?" Everyone looked to where Kenny was pointing.
"Is that the…" Char's question fell short.
"It is…" Cassie said while taking an apprehensive step forward. There; right in front of them, was the blue police box from the show Doctor Who. As the rest of the group followed, their video was forgotten and no one noticed when Jinx dropped the camera.
"So…" Jinx started nervously, "Who wants to do the honors?" Nobody rushed to do it, which caused Jinx wonder whether she should sigh in annoyance or not. She gulped, her body doing this involuntarily, and reached her hand to it. As soon as the door opened, it was as if a vacuum had turned on. They found themselves being sucked in through the door faster than they could comprehend what was going on.
The four teens walked along the grassy field as if nothing had happened. The girls looked around and saw trees and plants, but what stuck out the most was a gigantic lake with an equally gigantic castle just on the other side.
"Hogwarts…" Char whispered in shock. The others took a closer look and saw that it was indeed Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
"Okay, what the hell is going on?" Jinx asked. No one had an answer, they were just as confused as she was.
"Should we…" Char sighed, "should we look for a way back home?" Kenny and Cassie nodded silently.
"We can try." Jinx said with a defeated sigh. They began walking back from where they came from, which happened to be the Forbidden Forest.
"How did that even happen?" Kenny asked after a few minutes of silent searching a few meters to the left of Jinx.
"I think the questions is how CAN that even happen." Cassie said from behind Jinx.
"I don't have a clue." Char said. "Let's just concentrate on getting the hell out of here and back home."
The girls searched for a while longer and came up with nothing. The forest was thick and they didn't want to stray too far from each other, or too far from the exit. No need to get lost in a forest when they're already lost in another universe.
"Maybe we should go up to the school?" Kenny suggested sheepishly as she shrugged awkwardly. Silence was enough of an answer. "Yeah, you're right, stupid idea."
The search carried on uneventfully for about ten minutes before, finally, Jinx spotted something bright orange laying in a pile of brown leaves.
"I found something!" She shouted. She advanced towards it as the other three made their way over to their black wigged friend.
"A Kenny doll?" Cassie asked upon further inspection of the object in front of them.
"Maybe it's our way home?" Kenny suggested. She received strange looks from all three of her friends. "Hey, weirder things have, and are, happening." The others silently agreed.
"Alright, so if this is our way home, should we all grab onto it?" Cassie asked. She looked at her friends to see them nodding. Everyone took deep breaths before taking hold of the plush doll at the same time.
Everything started spinning. They couldn't tell up from down, left from right, or front from back. They only knew one thing: They were floating…somewhere. They didn't know where, but they didn't have time to think about it before they fell, quite painfully, to the ground. They could tell they were no longer at Hogwarts. In fact…
"Guys, where are we?" Char asked slowly, as if afraid of the answer.
"Looks like the middle of nowhere." Jinx said.
"But it's not our hometown middle of nowhere." Kenny said. They were in the middle of a thinker forest than the one in their hometown and the trees were different.
"There has to be something here." Char reasoned. "Like last time."
"Should we split up?" Jinx asked. Cassie shook her head.
"No, the woods are too thick."
"And this place kind of gives me the creeps." Char told her friends. They all agreed and started walking around together.
They crept further into the thick trees as it got darker around them. None of them spoke as the looked for something that would get them home. A noise sounded from behind them. A fluttering sound, almost like wings. The girls froze in their spots, not daring to move.
"You four do not belong here." They spun around at the sound of the voice behind them. When their eyes adjusted to the darkness, they saw a man in a tan trench coat standing before them.
"Castiel!" Char gasped. There was no time for anything else to be said or done before Cas zapped them.
It seemed as if no time had passed from when they were standing in front of Castiel; the angel from Supernatural, to now. Apart from stumbling a bit, there was no evidence that they had even moved, or been moved.
"Okay, where the hell are we NOW?" Jinx asked no one in particular. Kenny looked around before her eyes went wide.
"Um… let's just say that we'll definitely blend in here…"
"What?" Jinx asked Kenny in confusion. She looked around too, and saw what she meant.
"We're uh… we're…" Jinx was in shock. No one spoke as they stared at the entrance gate in front of them.
"HEY!" All four girls knew that voice and they felt their blood run cold as they processed it.
"Who the hell are you?" An aggressive, cold voice asked, no, demanded. The four girls turned to see the characters they were cosplaying as. Sasuke and Naruto in front of Hinata and Sakura, the two boys were obviously the source of the voices.
"Th-they look like us…" Naruto muttered in confusion. Sasuke smirked like the cocky bastard he is.
"Let's see if they fight like us." He said challengingly. Sakura had an evil glint in her eye.
"Hell yeah!" Hinata simply nodded, but she had the same determined expression that Naruto did.
"Let's do this!" Naruto shouted as the four ninja went to attack the four cosplayers. Hinata in her gentle fist pose, Sasuke with a shuriken, Naruto had the hand sign for his shadow clone ready, and Sakura had a kunei.
Too shocked to do anything, the four girls simply stood there; frozen, too scared to even scream.
The ninja were getting closer to them. They had no time to react when Hinata rushed ahead of the others and ran directly at Char.
Just as Hinata pulled her arm back to charge her chakra, the girls closed their eyes when they were engulfed in a blinding white light.
Seconds later, the girls opened their eyes curiously when they heard beeping and typing sounds, and were in awe with what they saw.
A massive computer with some sort of hologram was in the center of the big room, and everything in the room had a blue tint to it from what the girls guessed was the hologram.
Before any of them had the chance to speak, however, they heard a frantic boy's voice come
from behind the large computer monitor.
"Return to the past now!"
Everything was surrounded by the blinding white light once again at the boy's words.
Everyone's thoughts were the same as they found themselves sitting in the middle of a field. When they looked harder, they noticed that everything, including them, was black and white like an old movie.
"Okay, I give." Jinx said. "What the FUCK is going on?"
"Don't know, but as soon as you find out; tell me." Kenny told her. They looked around more and noticed that the field seemed to go on for thousands of miles. They couldn't see anything beyond it. There were grassy hills everywhere with small, dead shrubs here and there, but absolutely no trees.
The girls looked at each other again.
"What do we do?" Cassie asked.
"Look around?" Char suggested, but it seemed more like a question than anything else.
"Well we can't exactly get lost here, so-" Kenny interrupted by making confused and fearful noise and pointing at something beyond Jinx. They all turned around and saw a man in his thirties or forties wearing a nice suit. His hair was dark, probably brown, and had a stoic expression.
"Wh-who are you?" Jinx asked nervous and cautiously. The man did not move, but he spoke in a monotone voice.
"Welcome to the Twilight Zone." The man then only moved his arm up to his side and snapped his fingers. The girls' shocked expressions turned to those of confusion when they woke up back in the woods of their hometown.
"Would anyone mind explaining what just happened?" Jinx asked. The others were too confused and shocked to speak. They got up slowly and cautiously, thinking that one wrong move could trigger another transportation.
They looked around and saw that everything relatively normal. They didn't see any gnome armies, and the time of day looked to not have changed, so they figured that they were safe.
"What's that?" Cassie asked. She was pointing to the area the Tardis was. Char, Kenny, and Jinx looked and saw a small, strange looking chest sitting there in the place of the police box that started all of this.
"A chest?" Char questioned as she hesitantly walked towards it. The rest of them followed when the cheerleader opened it.
"It's a note?" Cassie asked while picking up the piece of paper that was at the bottom of the chest. It was the only thing in there.
"'Hope you enjoyed your trip, signed… Bill Cipher…" Jinx read slowly. A voice that seemed to come from the sky made them jump.
"Remember, reality is an illusion, the universe is a hologram, bye gold BYE~!"
