Kerry awoke with a start, feeling the cold ground beneath her. She saw several others around her, and began to stutter until one of the men there, Sheldon, greeted her. "Hello."
"Oh!" Kerry exclaimed in surprise, having not noticing him before.
"Oh, there's no need to be frightened. I'm Dr Sheldon Cooper, and I don't know if this goes for you too, but I've never been here before."
"Oh. Well, Sheldon, I'm Kerry Hennessy, and no, I haven't been here before."
"I guessed so. You're the only red haired one here and even though it is physically impossible, your hair could blind the sun." Kerry gawked at Sheldon, obviously offended. "What? I'm just saying that if the sun had eyes-,"
"Okay, I get where you're going!"Sheldon then looked offended himself. "What?!"
"You cut me off." Kerry went to say something, but before she could, the only other female present awoke.
"Who in the heck-," the other woman, Nina, started to feel around for something. "My flask! Someone stole my flask! Was it you?!" She pointed threateningly at Kerry.
"I'm seventeen years old, I don't drink."
"Oh. Well, then…Was it you?!" She asked, pointing at Sheldon.
"Oh, drat. Missed the spark. And I don't know who you are, but I do know that you wear too much make-up, have had too much plastic surgery and what is that in your pocket?" Sheldon asked, offending Nina. She pulled a packet of cigarettes out of her jacket pocket. "Cigarettes. You should be ashamed of yourself."
"Don't worry about him. I'm Kerry."
"I'm Nina Van Horn; I was a top model in the seventies."
"Wow, you're Nina Van Horn? I read BLUSH all the time!" Kerry gushed.
"Maybe if you lose a few pounds, you could start modeling! I'll tell Jack about you." Kerry beamed and Nina smiled. The three other men stirred, the one who had been next to Nina, Jerry, awoke first.
"What the, where am I? Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
"I'm Jerry Seinfeld."
"You're Jerry Seinfeld?" Kerry and Nina both chorused.
"Well, that's what I just said."
"I'm Kerry. Rhymes with your name." Nina gave Kerry a playful shove.
"Lucky. I'm Nina Van Horn."
"Hey, you were in Sports Illustrated!" Jerry relised.
"That was barely a good magazine, had nothing on The Rolling Stone." Sheldon piped in.
"Who is that?"
"That's Sheldon, don't worry about him."
"That's Dr Cooper to you, young lady." One more man awoke.
"Where am I? Why is it so cold?"
"Maybe because we're outside?" Kerry answered in a 'derp' tone. "Who are you?"
One of the men, Ted, answered, "I'm Ted Mosby, Architect."
"Okay, I'm Kerry Hennessy, teenager." The last man present awoke with alert.
"Where am I?! Who are you?! What do you want with me?!"
"Oh, relax, you idiot, we're not terrorists." Nina scowled. Sheldon then added,
"How would he know, for all he knows you could be trying to dissect his brain."
"Anyway, ignore him, I'm Kerry, this is Nina, Jerry, Ted and…Dr Cooper."
"I'm Adam." Adam shook Kerry's hand. Sheldon looked at them all.
"Now that we've all been acquainted, I think we should try and find the way home."
"You know, he's right. But first we need to find the person who put us here in the first place so it doesn't happen again." Jerry planned, to which Sheldon looked up, concerned.
"Excuse me, but do you have a death wish? The person who put us here obviously doesn't like us, and if we find them, there's no doubt they'll destroy us and burn our remains." Everyone else stared at him, shocked and wide-eyed. "What, I'm just telling the truth!" Kerry shook her head at him and got to her feet, starting to walk away with the others. Sheldon stared at them in question. "Where are you all going?"
"Um, where do you think?"
"I don't know, you won't tell me." Everyone else groaned in annoyance.
Finch's eyes flickered as he awoke to sand in-between his fingers and water in his shoes. Was he on a beach? Finch sat up and turned to see two ladies sitting and talking. "Oh, Hi!" One, Lilly, said.
"Hello…where…where are we?"
"Sweetie, we don't even know. I'm Lilly." Lilly said, holding out her hand, Finch shaking it.
"I'm Dennis Finch; most people just call me Finch."
"I'm Elaine." The other introduced with a smile.
A little way down the beach, another man, CJ, started coughing and spluttering. He looked a lot like Finch, only he had facial hair, and the guy next to him, Russell, looked like his identical twin. As Finch, Lilly and Elaine made their way over, CJ got to his feet, stumbling a little. Finch helped pull Russell to his feet. "Dude, you okay?"
"Yeah, I'll live." Russell smiled, brushing himself off. Elaine started to laugh.
"Elaine, what's so funny?" Finch asked.
"You guys look like triplets." Elaine laughed. "Anyway, I'm Elaine, this is Finch and Lilly."
"I'm CJ and I've got no idea where the hell we are."
"I'm Russell, and I'm…pretty much the same as him." Russell said, pointing at CJ. They all turned around at the sound of another voice and saw another man, Howard, standing on a rock waving his arms around, trying to get their attention.
"Who the heck is that?" Finch asked.
"I have absolutely no idea." Lilly replied as Howard started bounding towards them. When he finally made it close enough, he introduced himself.
"Hey…guys…I'm…Howard…Wolowitz…" Howard panted, exhausted.
"Oh, well, catch your breath, I'm Lilly, this is Elaine, CJ, Russell and Finch." Lilly introduced, shaking Howard's hand.
"Well, let's try to get home first, I guess." Russell shrugged, starting to walk off. CJ bounded after him, eager to have a good conversation. Finch followed close behind them. Elaine grabbed Howard's hand and pulled him along, and, with Lilly tailing, they were off. Russell and CJ fought like kids a few times, but other than that, the road so far was smooth…
Penny looked around, clueless to where she was. Scared she looked next to her, where a man with squinty eyes was staring creepily. "Can I help you?"
"Can you tell me where we are?"
"No, I can't help you on that one."
"I was going to wake you up but your twin over there slapped me." The man, Puddy, explained.
"My twin?"
"Yeah, that's right." Penny turned to see another girl, Bridget, talking to another squinty eyed man, Jeff.
"I don't know her." Penny scowled. What about your twin?"
"Don't have one." Puddy simply replied. "I'm David Puddy. Call me Puddy."
"Okay, Puddy, I'm Penny." Penny introduced, shaking his hand. Their 'twins' started to head over to them. Bridget just greeted Penny with a 'hi!' while Jeff and Puddy inspected each other for a moment, before yelling out, 'BROS!' and hugging each other.
"I'm Puddy." Puddy introduced. "This is the lovely Penny."
"I'm Jeff. This is Bridget."
"Ah, a clone of the lovely Penny." Puddy smiled. They looked to see two others standing there, Marshall and Elliot. "Who are you?"
"I'm Elliot DiMauro. I'm a photographer at BLUSH magazine. At least I was." Elliot pondered. Marshall shook Puddy's hand and introduced himself.
"I'm Marshall Erickson. Pleasure to meet you." They looked to where Penny and Bridget were gushing about being twinsies.
"ACK IT'S LIKE LOOKING IN A BEAUTIFUL MIRROR!" Bridget squealed happily, cuddling Penny.
"Okay, you two, ease up, don't kill each other." Jeff warned.
"Oh, hi, you two, I'm Penny, this is Bridget!" Penny introduced.
"I'm Elliot. This is Marshall. God, you two are stunning!" Elliot smiled, amazed.
"Thanks! Nice to meet you, Elliot, Marshall!"
"Now, I think we're all split up away from our friends, I'm getting the feeling that they're here two, so let's go and try to find them."Penny and Bridget brushed themselves off, linked arms and started walking, chatting. Jeff and Puddy walked side by side, and Elliot and Marshall tailed behind, the six of them starting to sing a cheery little song as they walked.
A
udrey felt the sand on the side of her face as she managed to open her eyes. She saw her face met with another woman, Maya's, face and they had opened their eyes at the same time. Both girls let out a small scream and rolled over onto their knees.
"Who are you?"
"I was just about to ask you the same question!" Maya said, partially speechless.
"I-," Audrey was cut off by a blonde man, Barney, making his way over and putting his arms around them both.
"Hey ladies, name's Barney Stins-,"
"I'm married." Audrey told him simply, and Barney removed his arm from around her and shook her hand instead.
"Anyway, Barney Stinson."
"I'm Maya Gallo; I work at the magazine BLUSH." Barney kissed her hand.
"Lovely to meet you."
"Sweet talk doesn't work." Maya told him and he backed away.
"Of course it doesn't." He sighed.
"What's wrong?"She asked Barney, who started to put on fake sobbing.
"My cat…Sparkles…died yesterday…"
"Nice try." Maya smiled, patting his shoulder. Barney then turned to Audrey.
"Anyways, what's your name, ma'am?"
"Audrey. It's a pleasure."
"Who's the lucky man?" Maya asked Audrey.
"Oh, his name's Jeff. If you meet him, you'll love him. Just don't love him too much." Two bespectacled guys, George, bald, and Leonard, brunette, both made their way over to them.
"Hey, fancy meeting you here Barney!" George smiled.
"Oh god." Barney slapped his own face at the sight of George. The two had met before, and Barney NEVER wanted to see him again. "Everyone, this is George Costanza."
"And this is DR Leonard Hofstadter." George said, putting extra emphasis on the word doctor.
"You don't have to put so much emphasis on-,"
"You know what Leonard does? He's a scientist." George babbled. As he did, a brunette boy, Rory, hobbled over.
"Hey, do you guys happen to know where we are?" Rory asked.
"No, sorry…" Audrey apologized. Rory sighed and began to walk away.
"Hey, wait! Come travel with us!" Maya called.
"Really?" Rory asked her.
"Yeah, sure, we've all gotta get home, right?"
"Okay, I'll come with you guys."
"Great, let's get going." They all got to their feet and Rory introduced himself.
"I'm Rory."
"I'm Maya; this is Audrey, Barney, George and Leonard."
"Now let's get going kid, where ya from?" Barney asked, starting to walk with him.
Raj scratched the back of his head as he pushed himself up, and suddenly relised all the trees around him. He then saw the still unconscious Jen on the ground beside him, and started to gently shake her. "Excuse me, ma'am, are you okay?" Jen awoke, screaming and accidentally punched Raj in the face. He recoiled in pain and she gasped.
"Oh my god, I am so sorry!" Jen said.
"Its fine, but you pack a punch!"
"Oo, are you alright?"
"I'll live. I'm Raj."
"Jennifer. Nice to meet you and I am so sorry I punched you in the face." They shook hands. An older man, Jack, and a middle-aged woman, Cate, made their way towards them.
"Hey, do you two know where we are?" Jen called out to them. Cate turned towards them and they both ran over.
"I'm sorry; I couldn't hear you, honey." Cate smiled.
"Do you two know where we are?" Jen asked calmly.
"That's what we're trying to figure out. I'm Cate Hennessy, and this is my friend Jack Gallo."
"Well, I'm Jennifer Morgan, and this is my friend Raj…"
"Rajesh Koothrappali." Raj smiled.
"Hey, who is that over there?" Jack asked, pointing to a curly haired man, Kramer, who was with a brunette woman, Robin.
"Kramer, stop it, you're never going to get their attention!" Robin scowled.
"Hang on, that old guy just pointed at me! They're coming over!" Kramer started to jump around excitedly. As the other four got over, Kramer decided to introduce himself. "Hey everyone, I'm Cosmo Kramer, this is my friend Robin Sherbotski, and we were just wondering, do you know where we are?"
"Well, I'm Cate; this is Jack, Jen and Raj. We don't know where we are, we wanna find our way home."
"Same here." Robin sighed.
"You know, let's all travel together, we can get home and get to know each other better." Raj suggested, to which everyone nodded.
"Hey Raj, I'll race you to that maple tree right down there." Robin suggested, pointing to the said tree.
"You're on!" Raj laughed high fiving Robin. Their path was smooth too…
Little did they know, their worst nightmare was about to come true…
