Chapter 4:You've Got To Be Kidding Me

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Forgot to say in the last chapter some things. First, this is dedicated to the best cousin on earth. She makes Tsunade look like a puppy in comparison to raw power, and she makes Fay Valentine look like Nina from Code Geass on a scale of awesomeness and coolness. And, I might add, she makes Izaya from Durarara look like a retard when it comes to smarts.

You've got to be kidding me. That's the first thought that comes to me when Alexa tells me this crazy story. That is, until I hear the door bell ringing. I stride out of Alexa's room as she follows me to open the door. Aunt Kelly and my dad got up, but sat back down when they noticed I was opening the door. When I did, I saw a group of people I didn't even know. One of them was basically the personification of the color red, while another was a girl who was towering over me. Behind them were two girls who looked like sisters. One was wearing glasses, the other had her blonde hair in a ponytail. Next to them was some short kid who was wearing neon, and a Japanese girl who was wearing rectangular glasses. Behind them was a girl who was wearing all denim and munching on a Hershey's candy bar.

"Um," I started, "Who are you people?"

"I'm Brian," the red kid said. Wait, this name sounds familiar.

"I'm CiCi!" the girl in denim piped up.

"I'm Arabella," the sister with glasses said.

"And I'm Cadey," the blonde sister with the ponytail said, "I'm Arabella's sister."

"I'm K," the girl towering over me said. She stuck her hand out, apparently to shake my hand, "Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you," I said, looking up at K as she shook my hand. She reminded me of Mori from Ouran High School Host Club.

"I'm Yumeko," the Japanese girl said, "But you can call me Yumi, if you want. Just don't call me Yum Yum. You can only call me Yum Yum if I'm wearing my softball sweater that has Yum Yum on it." Alexa grinned.

"True," she said, "You always hated it when I called you that."

"Yeah," Yumi said, nodding her head. I soon realized these kids must be Alexa's friends.

"And I'm Austin," a voice called out.

"Who said that?" I asked. The group of kids pointed to the kid in neon.

"Me," he said sadly.

"Oh," I said, "Sorry, I didn't notice ya there."

"It's fine," Austin said, scratching his head, "I get that a lot." Okay, I don't know if it was just me, but this kid reminded me of Hunny from Ouran High School Host Club.

"We're here to see Alexa," they all said, "It's really important." I turned to Alexa.

"What did you do this time, puppy?" Alexa grinned.

"Well, uh," she started, but was interrupted by Yumi.

"Don't tell her!" she whispered loudly. Alexa sighed.

"Yum Yum, I already told her. Chloe," Alexa gestured to her friends, "These are the guys I was talking about. The guy in red-" I interrupted.

"That must be Brian, right? He accidently killed the yard duty."

"Shhhhhhh!" the group of kids whispered.'

"We need to keep this as top secret as possible," CiCi said quietly, "Or Brian could get framed."

"True," Alexa said, "Come on in." The group of kids walked into the door way as I closed the door behind them. Suddenly, I heard a knock on the door. I opened it up. Austin was still outside.

"Oh, sorry," I said, "Didn't see ya there."

"It's fine..." Austin said sulkily as he followed the rest of the group into the living room.

"Hi Ms. Jones," Brian said. Aunt Kelly raised an eyebrow.

"Alexa," she said, "Why are all your friends here? And why didn't you tell me?" Alexa tensed up.

"Um, sorry mom, I forgot to tell you. K, Brian, Austin, and everyone else are doing a science experiment that involves all of us. I told them they could come to my house."

"Oh, okay. Go ahead and do your experiment." Aunt Kelly then flipped on the TV and began watching Real Housewives of Atlanta.

"Girl," she said to the TV, "He is so cheating on you." So, we walked over into Alexa's room.

"Cool manga stuff," The sisters said in unison.

"You have a Lelouch poster!" Brian said in glee.

"Whoa..." K said along with CiCi.

"C'mon guys, let's sit in a circle with the spinner in the middle." Alexa said.

"Okay," we all said. We sat in a circle as Alexa placed the spinner in the middle.

"This makes me feel like we're playing with a wedgie board," Austin said, a smile across his face.

"Yeah," Brian agreed. Alexa motioned to Brian by nodding towards him.

"Spin it." she commanded.

"Gimme a second," Brian complained, "I'm not exactly keen on getting sucked into a toy."

"We all agreed you'd be the guinea pig," Cadey laughed, "So you'd better spin it."

"Once again, I'm not exactly keen on spinning it."

"Spin it." Arabella growled.

"Don't tell me what to do!" Brian growled back. This was getting annoying.

"Both of you!" I said harshly, "Be quiet and spin it or we won't know what to do."

"Says someone who also isn't going to spin it," Brian back talked. Just as I was about to start dissing Alexa's red jacket friend, Alexa grabbed the spinner.

"I'll spin it!" she yelled, "I've always wanted to be the hero in the story, anyways." Before I could stop her, she spun it. It felt as if time went in slow motion for one second. The arrow went around two or three times, and then it began slowing down. It was getting really close to Durarara.

"Sweet," Alexa said happily, "I'm about to get my favorite ani...Oh wait." Alexa paused as she saw the spinner stop on Naruto. Her face turned to dread as the spinner kept its place.

"Alexa-" Austin said before Alexa interjected.

"Godda-" Alexa nearly cursed before she disappeared as she got sucked into the spinner. Some big tornado started to fly out of the spinner, and before I could yell at Alexa to not curse, Austin got sucked in. Instinctively, I, along with Cadey, grabbed onto Alexa's bed sheet. I could here sounds that sounded like a hurricane charging through.

"What's happening?" I screamed as Brian and his red jacket disappeared into the tornado.

"What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuu-" Brian yelled as he got sucked in.

"I didn't think this would actually happen!" Arabella screamed as she held onto Alexa's dresser drawers.

"Me neither!" Cadey screamed in her Australian accent.

"My mom's gonna kill meeeeeee!" Yumi screamed as she, too, got sucked in. K was struggling to hold onto the door knob, but eventually got sucked in after a couple seconds. She went in so fast she didn't even scream anything. I glanced to my side. Cadey had just lost her grip on the bed sheet.

"I'm sorry Doctor Whoooooooooooooooo!" she screamed as she got sucked in. Arabella and I looked at each other.

"Might as well," Arabella said with a shrug as she let go of the dresser drawer.

"For Narniaaaaaaa!" she yelled. Now, I was the only one left. I felt my grip loosening. I sighed. At least I'll see Gaara, I thought as I let go of the bed sheet, letting myself get sucked in. I saw a flash of white, and then lost consciousness.

When I woke up, the first thing I noticed were the trees. They were so green, way unlike anything I'd seen before. Then there was the blue sky, and the soft grass I felt under my fingers. I glanced to my side. The grass was green too. I was starting to think I'd just got sucked into a place that was just nature, until I remembered something. Konoha looks like this, I thought, It's the village hidden in the leaves. I slowly stumbled up, and looked around. I was obviously in a forest, with all the trees and vegetation.

"Is anyone there?" I called, hoping someone would answer. No one did. I was alone, and Gaara was probably in the Village Hidden in the Sand. But that wasn't something to be concerned about. Right now, I need to find Alexa and her friends. There was only one problem. Where were they?!
