Switch Up: Part 2By: Davescifi
Part 1: The next morning,
"What a nightmare", Fizz said to herself as she woke up thinking that the whole thing about Deets and her switching bodies had been nothing but a bad dream, however was brought back to realty when she saw she was in Deets' room and could see herself in the mirror, "I've got to get out of here." After she got up, Fizz changed into a courier suit, ate some breakfast, and headed to her workshop. For about an hour, Fizz worked on what she could so all Deets and her would have to wait for would be the parts that Fizz had ordered, that is until the others came to see her.
"Hey Deets", Burn accidentally said as he walked into the shop.
"Forget already", Fizz asked half jokingly.
"Sorry", Burn stated as he walked to the table, "How's it coming?"
"It's ready for now", Fizz answered, "All I have to wait for is the parts I had to order last night."
"That's good", Ed butted in as Loogie and him showed up.
"Yeah, it hard to remember that you and Deets are in each others bodies", Loogie added followed by Dr. Pinch, 'Why's that? It easy to see that they switched."
"What's that suppose to mean", Fizz asked.
"Nothing", Dr. Pinch stuttered.
"What ever", Fizz said back as she put her tools away, "Anyway, anyone seen Deets?"
"I saw her about half an hour ago", Ed stated, "Said she was going to get a bath."
"Hey guys", Deets said as she came into the shop.
"Hey Deets, I got most of the", Fizz started to say as she turned to look at Deets, but was horrified when she saw what Deets had done, "What did you do?"
"What", Deets asked as she kept her eyes on filing the nails on Fizz's hands.
"Why is there makeup on my face", Fizz questioned.
"Your body needed a little treatment", Deets started as she began to look up, "You know a bubble bath, then some lotion to make your skin softer, and last just a little make up." Fizz's jaw dropped as she heard what Deets was saying, until Deets looked at her face, "Fizz, what, where is the makeup?"
"I wiped it off before I went to bed lastnight", Fizz said as she tried to calm herself as she thought, "If anyone sees my body like that I'll never hear the end of it."
"And you didn't put any on", Deets asked as she had similar thoughts.
"Oh boy", Burn said as he saw where the situation could go."
"We could have a problem", Loogie said, followed by Dr. Pitch, "That's about the smartest thing you've ever said."
"Girls", Ed butted in, hoping to claim them down.
"Stay out of this Ed", both girls snapped.
"I should have known that you would do something like this", Fizz shouted, "You can't live without makeup."
"I was about to say the same thing", Deets snapped, "You're scared to death about the idea of makeup." The boys could only watch as the scene unfolded.
"Deets", Fizz screamed, "You get that makeup off my body right now or else."
"Or else what", Deets asked.
"Or else I go outside and roll in the nearest mud puddle where everyone can see", Fizz answered.
"You would, you wouldn't dare", Deets stuttered from fear.
"Oh yes I would", Fizz said in a stern tone.
"Fine", Deets stated, "You do that and I'll go out in a dress."
"What", Fizz screamed, "No you will not."
"Come on", Burn said, trying to claim the girls down.
"Yeah", Ed added, clueless as usually, "What's the deal?"
"Stay out of this", both girls screamed.
"Enough" Ol'skool spoke up as he entered the room, "You both need to calm down."
"But Ol'skool", both girls tried to say as Ol'skool raised his hand.
"No butts", Ol'skool stated, "We need to have a little talk." As both girls sighed and looked to ground, knowing they were in trouble, the Dojo alarm went off.
"Who is it", Ed asked as he saw Burn look at the screen.
"It's the parts that Fizz ordered", Burn answered.
"Thank goodness", both girls stated.
"Alright", Ol'skool responded, "Boys go after the parts, Fizz Deets in my meditation area.
"Right", the crew said before each headed to their destination.
Part 2: Outside the Dojo,
It had been a few minutes since they had left the Dojo, however no one had said anything until Ed broke the silence, "What is the deal with those two."
"The deal is that neither one respected the other's wishes", Burn responded.
"And the fact that they're as different as night and day", Dr. Pinch added followed by Loogie, "As different as a pickle and a meat patty."
"What's that suppose to mean", Ed asked, confused by Loogie's add-on.
"It means that they're complete opposites", Burn answered, "Deets is a girly-girl and can't live without stuff like makeup; Fizz on the hand is a tomboy, and can't stand acting like a girl."
"But she is a girl", Ed stated.
"I know", Burn said, "But Fizz doesn't like to do some of the things that girls do, mainly makeup."
"Like she said before", Loogie started before changing his voice to mimic Fizz, "Some girls like glitter and lipstick, I prefer plasma bolts and primary fusion."
"Right", Ed responded, "I thing I get it."
"Either way, those two need to get in their own bodies", Burn stated, "Lets just get those parts and get back to the Dojo."
"So where are the parts at", Loogie asked.
"Sector 7", Burn answered as he looked at Fizz's handheld computer, which he had borrowed, by the old water-treatment plant."
"I just hope no one tries to give us any trouble", Ed stated.
"That makes two of us", Dr. Pinch followed by Loogie, "Make that three."
"You'll get no argument from me", Burn commented as they got on the freeway, wondering what Ol'skool had in mind for the girls.
Part 3: Back at Dojo,
"How long is he going to make me wait", both girls thought to themselves. Ol'skool had made them go and sit in his meditation area, but that had been over fifteen minutes ago. As they both thought about everything that had been going on, they both gazed at each other from time to time, but quickly looked away as they could only see themselves.
"I hope you've both calmed down", Ol'skool stated as he entered the little tent-like area and sat down, "Now both of you, what is this really about?"
"What is this about", Fizz shouted, "Look what she did to my body, putting on that makeup, she knows I hate that stuff"
"Like you've got room to talk", Deets interrupted, "It wouldn't have killed you to put a little on."
"I say neither one of you respected the other's wishes", Ol'skool commented, "Even if you are using each other's bodies, you should have asked each other first."
"But", both girls tried to say.
"No butts", Ol'skool cut them off, "Besides I don't believe that this is the only part of what's going on."
"Huh", Fizz asked confused.
"What do you mean", Deets questioned.
"Think about it, you both are opposite sides of the same coin", Ol'skool explained, "Is it possible that when you see your bodies the way they are right now that you saw the part of yourselves that you try to suppress?"
"No", Fizz answered.
"Absolutely not", Deets stated.
"Well I think so", Ol'skool started, "Fizz can you look me in the eyes and tell me you haven't once thought about pampering yourself? About acting more like a girl?"
"Well", Fizz tried to say but wasn't sure how to answer, "Maybe once or twice."
"I thought so", Ol'skool responded, "Now Deets can you look me in the eyes and tell me you haven't once wanted to act more boyish?"
"I guess", Deets answered, also thinking about what Ol'skool was saying.
"See, there's nothing wrong with admitting that. Everyone has a side to themselves that they try to hide", Ol'skool said, "Now I think that you both owe each other an apology."
"Sorry Fizz", Deets said.
"Sorry Deets", Fizz said back.
"I should have asked", Deets said, "I go and wipe this off."
"No, its alright", Fizz stated, "I guess it's only fair since I wasn't going to wear any."
"Now that that's settled, here's your punishment after you both are in your correct bodies", Ol'skool started, "Fizz for one day you have to do things like most girls do and the next day Deets will act like a tomboy. Got it?"
"Yes", both girls responded as they thought about how they were going to have to come out of their comfort zones."
"Why on different days though", Deets asked.
"Because you are going to show Fizz how to act more like a girl and she is going to show you how to act like a tomboy", Ol'skool answered.
"I don't suppose we could go through this punishment when the boys aren't around", Fizz asked.
"Yeah, you know so we don't have to have embarrassment on top of this", Deets added.
"Nice try", Ol'skool joked, "I need someone to confirm that you both did what you are suppose to when I'm not around. Don't worry I'll get on them if they cause any trouble. Now why don't you go and watch some T.V. until the boys get back."
"Okay", both girls said as they got up and left for the living room.
Part 4: A few minutes later,
It had been over any hour since Burn, Ed, and Loogie had retrieved the parts for Fizz's machine. What should have been a quick return to the Dojo ended up being a full day's exercise from having to deal with so many of the top courier teams in Progress City.
"I can't believe the trouble we've had today", Ed commented.
"Yeah", Loogie added, "First the Klowns, than the Twighters, followed by the Atlas 5s, and last D.N.A.."
"It's because they knew that Fizz had made the order", Burn informed them, "They aren't going to just stand around and let her whip us up some new gear that could give us an edge."
"Well anyway we're home", Ed said as they entered the door of the Dojo.
"Home sweet home", Burn added as they powered-down and found the girls in the living room watching a scifi/romance holo-vid which kind of surprised the boys.
"Hey girls", Loogie said, "We've got your parts."
"You two worked everything out", Ed asked.
"Yes", Fizz answered.
"Pretty much", Deets added.
"That's good news", Burn commented as he saw Ol'skool coming into the living room, "Hey Ol'skool."
"Ah good you three are back", Ol'skool commented before he looked to the girls, "Deets, Fizz, you two go and finish that device."
"Ok", the girls said as they took the parts and left.'
"Shouldn't we help", Ed asked.
"I need to talk to the three of you", Ol'skool stated as he explained the girls' punishment.
Part 5: Fizz's workshop,
It took an hour or two, but Fizz was finally able to put the finishing touches on her second mental communication device. After completing her work, Fizz took a breather and walked up to Deets who had fallen asleep.
"Deets, Deets wake up", Fizz said as she started to shake her body,
"Wha, what is it", Deets asked as she got up and rubbed her eyes.
"I'm done", answered. After Deets was fully awake, both girls went to the device as Fizz connected the emitters before looking at Deets, "Ready?"
"For which part", Deets asked, "Getting my body back or Ol'skool's punishment."
"Both", Fizz answered as she couldn't help but crack a smile from how Deets answered the question, which in turn caused Deets to smile as well, "Well all we need is Ed's plasma boost."
"Ed's plasma boost, why", Deets asked.
"Because we going to have to repeat what caused us to switch bodies in the first place", Fizz answered, "I guess I should have told you that earlier."
"You think", Deets half-joked.
"All done", Ed asked as he and the others guys came into the lab.
"Yes", Fizz answered as she attached the emitters to Deets and herself, "All I need is your plasma boost."
"Here you go", Ed said as he handed her the item, which she attached to the mental communication device.
"Are you sure this is safe", Burn asked.
"It's the only way", Fizz explained, "Only a jolt from Ed's tool can switch me and Deets' minds to our proper bodies."
"Can I switch next", Loogie asked.
"No", Ol'skool answered before he looked to Fizz, "Whenever your ready."
"Right", Fizz responded as she looked at Deets, "Ready?"
"Ready", Deets answered. Fizz than pressed the button on the device as Ed mentally commanded his plasma boost to send a surge through the device and into the girls.
"Ah", both girls screamed just before the device, as before, exploded and sent everyone back from the plasma wave.
"Fizz", Burn called out as he picked the upper part of her body up and started to shake her.
"Deets", Ed called as he did the same to Deets' body.
"Are they ok", Loogie asked followed by Dr. Pinch, "I don't know."
"Settle down, they're coming to", Ol'skool told Loogie as the girls opened their eyes, "Fizz, Deets?"
"That hurt", Fizz said as she sat up and looked at herself to find that she was in her body again.
"Tell me about it", Deets said back as she followed suit and found that she was back to normal.
"Yes", both girls screamed and jumped for joy.
"Well, glad that's over", Burn stated.
"Agreed", Ed, Loogie, and Ol'skool replied as they backed up to give the girls some breathing room.
"You two think you are going to be alright", Ol'skool asked.
"I think so, after I get some rest", Deets answered.
"Same", Fizz added, "So when do we start out little thing?"
"In a day or two. I'll give you girls some time to recover", Ol'skool replied as he picked up what was left of Fizz's invention, "As for this, it's going with all of your other crazy creations."
"Right", "Fizz replied before she felt Deets lay a hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry Fizz", Deets joked, "We all know it won't be your last. Lets go finish that holo-vid."
"Ok", Fizz said as both girls left for the living room.
"The next couple of days should be interesting", Ol'skool commented after the girls left.
"Are you sure this is a good idea", Ed asked as he had been thinking about what Ol'skool was going to have the girls do.
"Good question", Burn added.
"Don't be silly, what could go wrong", Loogie asked.
"It will be fine", Ol'skool assured them. After a moment, everyone left the lab to relax and prepare for the craziness that laid ahead.
The End.
Well this is the end of my second Get Ed story. I got the idea when I recalled watching the episode of Jimmy Neutron where he and Cindy switch bodies and thought it might be funny. As before, if anyone has any suggestion or comments, please let me know and maybe I'll make a sequel with Fizz and Deets trying to act out of character. Thank you in advance.
