Double Trouble

Epilogue

We open this chapter on world #53 where the Jade of that universe, who we'll call Jade53, is now walking down the hall of Hollywood Arts.

Jade53 clenched her jaw tight, as she walked up to the just posted cast list for Hollywood Arts latest musical, Grease. Seeing the crowd of people in front of the cast list, finding out what parts they would play, Jade53 merely barked. "OUT TO MY WAY."

Like some biblical miracle, the crowd instantly parted, leaving Jade direct path to the board where the final cast list was posted.

Looking down she saw the first name.

Danny Zuko- Beck Oliver.

Of course the second name was the one she wanted more than anything. She then expectantly moved her eyes down to the next line.

Sandy Dumbrowski – Tori Vega.

The loud and angry growl instantly came out of Jade53's mouth."Grrrrr….."

Furious, she looked further down to see just what part she actually got.

Betty Rizzo – Cat Valentine

Frenchy – Jade West.

Seeing that, made Jade's blood boil and a second later her angry voice boomed down the hallway.

"FRENCHY! FRENCHY! I GOT FRENCHY! VEGA BEATS ME FOR SANDY AND I GET FRENCHY!"

The next sound that could be heard, was the fellow students fleeing in panic. No one wanted to be anywhere near Jade53, when she was mad.

Furious, she stormed to her locker while she carefully plotted her revenge.

"Mabye I could just maim her slightly." Jade53 snarled, as she arrived at her scissor covered locker.

But something was different. Taped to the front of it was an envelope.

Jade tore the envelope open and pulled out a neat handwritten note.

"Want to get Vega. Come to music practice room 7, in 5 minutes and I'll show you how."

Jade53, wasn't sure what this was about, but she certainly wanted to get Vega so she headed straight up there.

As she stomped up the stairs she glanced and could see her dragon tattoo, snarl angrily, glow intense red and slowly move up her arm.

"You're telling me."

Upon arriving at the room she walked in finding it empty, save for a female figure looking out the window. She was wearing all black and had hair much like herself.

"What's this all about!" snapped Jade53 at the figure, whose back was to her.

The figure slowly turned and much to Jade53's utter shock, the figure was her, down to the last detail.

"Tori Vega of course, it always is." Said her double, with a smirk.

Shocked, Jade53 fell backwards the ground and in a sense of panic, started to shuffle back to the door. She got about 3 feet when backed into someone standing right behind her.

Looking up, it was yet another version of herself, also smirking. "We need to talk and you're not going anywhere."

"Wha….Wha…Wha…" was all Jade53 could possibly mutter as she quickly scurried and crouched in the corner.

"I…I…Know how to use this." Said a wide eyed Jade53, as she her scissors out in self defense.

The two standing Jades looked at each other and collectively shook their heads.

The one of the left, held out her hands. "Don't worry, you're not drugged, hallucinating, gone insane or anything else. You're safe, we mean you no harm. We have scissors too, so put that thing away."

"Who…" Squeaked Jade53

"Well, you can call me Jade and my semi-friend here, is Jadelyn. Since this is world 53, we'll call you Jade53. "

Jade53 didn't respond other than letting her Jaw drop open.

Jadelyn stepped forward. "Ok, who are we. There are an infinite number of alternate universes out there. We are different versions of you from two different ones and have traveled here by means of a scientific invention to help you. We are for real, just ask us anything. You can examine us, we are wearing no masks or theatrical make-up"

Jade53 suddenly barked. "Where do I hide my blue scissors?"

"Closet, lower left side, in the shoe box marked, Old crap."

Unconvinced, Jade53 asked a quick barrage of questions which Jade and Jadelyn were able to answer. Finally she gathered enough courage to poke at both Jade and Jadelyn's faces, to make sure no one was wearing any kind of mask or wig.

"Let's say I believe you, what do you want." Said Jade53, in a shaky voice.

"To help you with Tori." Said Jadelyn as she sad in a chair.

"KILL HER! MAKE HER DEAD, BURY HER ALIVE, MAKE HER SUFFER FOR ETNERITY."

Jade smirked and looked at Jadelyn. "Oh yeah, she's got it bad."

"No, were going to help you win Tori's heart. You are, secretly in love with her. " An amused looking Jade, replied.

"WHAT!" Bellowed Jade53 as her face twisted and distorted in rage. In addition to her reaction, her dragon tattoo turned bright red and breathed a jet of tattooed flame across her arm.

"I love those tattoo's, we've got to get some Jade. Something about nanites being infused with the ink."

Jade nodded. "I hear they can act according to your emotions , change color and move."

Jade53, quickly interrupted the tattoo talk. "You're both nuts' I don't love Tori. That'goodie-goodie, always trying to be my friend, freak. "

Jadelyn proudly held out her engagement ring. "Yes you do. Jade and I are both engaged to the Tori's in our universe. I'm getting married in two weeks."

Jade53 backed up and for a moment looked as if she was going to throw up. "How could you….she's disgusting. Hey if your lesbians, that's fine, but anyone but Vega. She's always stealing my parts, she's infuriating."

Jade shook he head. "Infuriating yes, especially when she hogs the blankets at night, but she's more than worth the effort. You've been quite stubborn according to our research. Not letting your feelings show. You're half way through the senior year and you still haven't admitted your love for the Latina."

"NO, I don't love Tori!"

The argument went for several more minutes, with Jade53 vehemently denying any feeling's, other than seething hatred, for the Latina. Both Jade and Jadelyn kept insisting she did.

Jadelyn finally smirked. "Ok, I'm sure we could argue this point all day, but let's' cut to the chase. You love Tori and I can prove it." She then held up her phone. "How come I have footage of you, standing on the limb outside her window watching her undress last night?"

"She wasn't undressing she was only doing homework and dancing to music." Shot back Jade53, before she put her hands over her mouth, as she realized she had said too much.

Jade jumped up and excitedly pointed at Jade53. "AH-HA"

Turning beat red, Jade53 pulled her hand away from her mouth. "You were bluffing weren't you?"

Jadelyn nodded. "Yes, I knew you were though, we Jade's always do that."

Jade53 suddenly exploded. "I HATE HER, SHE DOESN'T LOVE ME BACK!"

"Let me guess, you haven't bothered to so much as give her hint of the burning desire and passion for her, that you carry deep within your soul." Jade quipped, in a rather acid tone of voice.

"NO, I couldn't possibly do that. She'd break my heart. She's a perfect angel and could never love me." Jade53, said defensively and sounding just a bit sad.

Jade glanced out the window and turned to Jade53. "She does. She always does. You go down to the asphalt café right now and tell her you love her and kiss her. I guarantee she will say she loves you back."

"And if I don't" said Jade53, as she gazed out the window at Tori who was sitting in the asphalt café below.

Jadelyn put a firm hand on Jade53's shoulder. "We kick your ass until you do. It's for you own good."

"Fine." Jade 53 ranted. "She better say she loves me."

"She will and believe me, it will be music to your ears." Said Jade with a warm smile.

Without another word, Jade53 stormed out of the room.

Jade and Jadelyn then walked to the window and sure enough an angry looking Jade53 came storming out on to the asphalt right up to her version of Tori, who was sitting with Beck, Robbie and Cat of that universe.

"Yes Jade?" Tori53 said with a smile.

"You're in love with me, I'm in love with you. We're girlfriend and girlfriend from now on. GOT IT!"

For a moment, there was a dead silence around the table as Tori's brown eyes opened wide in complete surprise. Looking on Jade53's face they could see her looking more and more scared as the opressive silence hung over the air.

But suddenly Tori53 grinned, stood up and began to kiss Jade53 furiously. "I love you so much. You are so beautiful, We'll be so happy together."

As Jade53 surrendered to the kiss, the dragon tattoo on her arm glowed a soft pink and did a little happy dance.

Jade and Jadelyn quickly gave each other a high five.

"Mission accomplished." Beamed Jadelyn.

"Come on Jade, let's go. We can come back Saturday and get some of those tattoos."

A few minutes later Jade and Jadelyn stepped back into Jade's world, where Tori and Victoria were waiting in the basement of Hollywood Arts.

"You succeed?" Asked Tori, as she threw her arms around Jade.

"Yes we did." Jade replied after giving Tori a loving kiss.

"Scratch that one." Jadelyn said after giving Victoria a kiss herself.

Tori looked to Jade. "Some of these worlds are so different. Like that one medieval type world where Jade is a princess and she's been kidnapped by the evil wizard Noxzema."

Jadelyn quickly scowled "Noxzema is a skin care product, Noxymis is the name of the bad guy, please get it right."

"Ok, i stand corrected, but Tori is the poor girl who's going on a daring quest to rescue Jade, her true love. That's sooo romantic. They need help."

Jade shook her head. "We currently have a list of 194 separate worlds in which Tori and Jade need help getting together and that one is #183 on that list. We just finished world 53 which was 8th on our list. So it will be quite a while before we can get to it. With a bit of luck, Tori, her sister Trina who's good wizard and their friends, can rescue Jade and stop Noxymis by themselves."

Jadelyn stepped forward, looking confident, "and if it hasn't, we've got it handled. We're going to steal a portable, laser guided, plasma cannon from that world with all the super futuristic weaponry and just blow his castle to smithereens. Problem solved."

Jade then looked to Jadelyn. "What world is on our list to do next week?"

Jadelyn picked up the paper off the table, looked at it and groaned, "Not that one. Yuck."

"What?" Said Jade.

After taking the paper from Jadely and Reading it, Victoria squealed for Joy. "Oooh, I love this one. It's the disco universe. Me and Tori are so going along on this one."

Jade quickly scowled. "Disco universe? I don't remember that one. I don't like the sounds of it either."

"Imagine a universe where disco and disco era fashions not only never went out of style but are a worldwide obsession. In that world "The village People" is still one of the biggest music acts in the world. The regularly sell out entire stadiums. But in that universe, Jade is the disco queen of Hollywood arts and is infuriated by her new rival, Tori, showing her up on the disco floor. But it gets even better, someone tried to kill Tori and now the Jade there is being blamed." Jadelyn explained, looking none too enthused about it.

Jade shook her head in dismay. "Let me get this straight, we have to catch a would be disco murderer and get Tori and Jade fall in love. Oh…fun…why do I keep doing this? I know Jadelyn just likes to break up Beck and Jade over and over."

Tori pulled Jade into her arms and kissed her. "You do it, Because you love me and you want the fellow Jades to feel the same love as you. Just admit it."

Jade's mouth curved into a smile. "Busted."

Jadelyn also shook her head. "I might as well admit it now. She's right."

Tori and Victoria happily took the hands of their fiancé's and started to the door and said in unison. "Come on, you've done a good thing. Come on let's get some dinner and then if you two behave, we may just show you some of that love you been spreading around."

Jade looked to Jadelyn and shrugged. "Let's boogie."
