Toon Lizzie and Lizzie left the McGuire home and headed for a place Lizzie never thought she would end up.
Skid Row? Lizzie was thoroughly confused. Miranda was devoted to Larry 100%, ever since they began dating back in tenth grade, after Lizzie and Gordo set them up on a blind date for Valentines Day. Both Larry and Miranda were dateless, so Lizzie and Gordo told Miranda and Larry, respectively, to get dressed and meet them at the Digital Bean for an evening of fun. All four of them ended up at the same table, much to the of Lizzie and Gordo. Larry and Miranda caught on to their friends' plan, and the rest was history. They had just celebrated their two year anniversary. So why was Miranda working the streets as a prostitute?
Miranda, what are you doing? she shouted
Then she remembered.
You don't exist! Toon Lizzie yelled. She paused and went on to explain the scene before them.
Remember when you three were in eighth grade, and Miranda was on that diet? Lizzie nodded, remembering that scary time when Miranda nearly became anorexic. Well, she had nobody to help her with her problems, and since without you, she and Gordo never met, she turned to drinking, which led to her drug habit. Her parents soon disowned her, and Miranda felt she had no choice but to become a hooker to support herself and her habit. Toon Lizzie turned to Lizzie. She didn't have you to help her to tell her it was wrong and to give her support when she needed it. You are the best friend she has, and without you she is lost.
Lizzie paused. Without me, she's a hooker with a drug problem---wow. I never knew I meant that much to her. I mean, we are best friends, but I had no idea.
There's more. Toon Lizzie added Miranda also has AIDS. She contracted it though one of her johns, and she only has a few weeks left. She's only working because she needs money for rent.
Oh my Gosh, Lizzie screamed. I never knew, I never knew. She brushed tears away from her eyes and said If I impacted Miranda that much, who knows about Gordo. She looked up at her Toon self and begged like a little girl, can we see Gordo, can we please?
Toon Lizzie looked at Lizzie and took a deep breath. I don't know how to tell you this, but Gordo's dead.
a/n cliffhanger!!!! I'll try to update within the next day or so.....remember if you can't say something nice, don't say it at all!!
