Marlene McFly Nineteen blinked, as she came to. As she looked around, she realized that she rather was in an unfamiliar setting. She then saw that there were plenty of girls who looked just like her. She tried to figure out just what she was last doing.
She then noticed that there were also quite a few girls who sure resembled Stephanie Stebbs. While she was just aware of the fact that Stephanie had a twin sister, named Stacy - there actually appeared to be over a dozen versions of Stephanie aboard.
"Are you okay, Marly?" asked the Stephanie that was closest to her. "I'm just not sure how to tell you this, but it simply... Well, I heard three sonic booms - before you came to. It rather seems as if... the Tannens got their hands on a time machine. I wonder if Bill hasn't turned on us, after all. It even seems as if there's a third Tannen involved."
"My! My! My!" cackled one of the Tannens, as he strolled towards the back. "I guess you think you're very smart, eh? Well, let me introduce ourselves to you. My name is Cliff Tannen, the father of Griff Tannen - who, as a matter of fact, is also with me."
"And I'm Xiff Tannen," added another Tannen, as he headed towards the back. "I am the future son of Griff Tannen - and, I must, I'm simply proud of my father. I'm proud to be a Tannen, in fact. Oh, and the girl who joined us happens to be Amy Needles."
"Yes, I know just what you're thinking," commented the girl who did, in fact, look a lot like Amy Needles. "The version of me that's native to your world is a major wuss."
"You guys are sick!" growled Marlene, as she finally remembered what had happened.
"No, I'd just say that we happen to be very clever," protested Cliff, snickering.
Marlene Eighteen swallowed hard, as the bullies headed back towards the front. She blinked, as she was trying hard not to cry. She just felt incredibly scared. This rather was supposed to be one of the best days of her life - but, instead, this was certainly turning out to be her worst. This was not how she hoped to spend her anniversary.
"Yours just looks like another world without an accompanying Stacy," commented one of the other Stebbs girls. "That brings the grand total to three, now."
"Yeah, I guess she lucked out," replied Stephanie Eighteen, in a near whisper. "She's in Elmdale, as she's in love with boy who lives there. His name is Trevor."
"That's the same with our world," explained the Stebbs girl who had just spoken. "I'm really starting to envy my twin sister, right now."
"Well, let me get this straight," insisted Marlene, swallowing. "Some of you Stebbs girls are actually Stacy, the twin sister of Stephanie?"
"That's correct," replied another Stebbs girl. "I'm a Stacy, by the way. In our world, I am dating George McFly - who happens to be the twin brother to Marty Jr. I'm rather jealous of my counterparts who lucked out, as well. I wish I could be her, right now."
"In my world," added yet another Stebbs girl, "I'm dating Marty Jr's look-alike cousin, Alex. That not only applies to my world, World Two - but that sure also applies to my counterparts in Worlds Six and Nine. I guess there is no Alex in your world, right?"
"Well, not an Alex who's a cousin to us," replied Marlene Eighteen. "A look-alike to my brother, or otherwise. Marty doesn't have a twin named George, either."
"I suppose Todd Brown doesn't exist in your world," commented a Stebbs girl who had not previously spoken. "The adoptive grandson of Doc. That's who I'm dating."
"And I guess the Ryan Nelson in your world is seven years older than Aaron," added still another Stebbs girl. "In our world, he is just ten months older - and he is the one that I'm dating."
"Oh, I see that Miss Stacy Stebbs is even more fickle than the Junior McFly butthead," cackled Cliff Tannen. "I think, for that, the Stacys might actually deserve a trophy."
"Shut up, Cliff," snapped the Stacy who was dating Ryan. "We simply can't help it, if different events play out different in our worlds. I mean, it's really not our fault!"
"We can maybe call you Fickle Stebbs," added Cliff, smirking. "That name rather would suit you, perfectly. At least, your sister sure knows how to make up her mind - even if the same can't be said of her boyfriend."
"Former boyfriend," corrected Xiff. "The girls are with us, now. They might think they hate us, now - but I guarantee that, eventually, it'll all change."
"Uh, lo-res scuzzballs," muttered Marlene Eighteen. As the Tannens and the bad Amy turned back to their business, she added. "Well, I'll quite assume that all who look like me is me. Unless, of course, I also have a twin or look-alike cousin in another..."
"Pretty much, yes," replied another Marlene. "Although, I really have a different first name from the rest. My name is Marie Marlene McFly. I was simply named after Dad's favourite female scientist, Marie Curie."
"And I'm Marlene Emma Klein," added yet another Marlene. "There is also a Marlene Stella Klein. The rest are either Marlene Stella McFly or Marlene Emma McFly."
"I'm Marlene Stella McFly," explained Marlene Eighteen. "I rather was named after my great-grandmother - who passed away, when I was just a baby."
"I'm also Marlene Stella McFly," added a girl who looked like a teen version of Lorraine Baines McFly. "Some of you might have different names, but I'm still just the only one that looks different from the others. I do take after my Grandma Lorraine, in fact."
"And I'm her sister," added a girl who just looked like a teen version of Jennifer Parker McFly. "I'm Melody McFly, and I'm a little less than a year younger than Marty Jr."
"Interesting," muttered Marlene Eighteen, stunned. "So, uh, who are the other two... that look like you? They wouldn't also happen to be Melody McFly, would they?"
"I'm Jennifer Parker," explained another girl who looked like Melody. "I was the first to be captured, from the year 1987. So, yes, I rather am a younger alternate version of your mother."
"And I'm Jennifer McFly," added the other girl who looked just like Melody. "I am the granddaughter of Jennifer Parker, but not quite the one who is aboard. In addition, Melody McFly is also not from our world - even though, I sort of wish she was."
"And the Jennifer Parker aboard is not really from our world," added Melody. "We are from three different worlds, and from three different generations."
"I can't say that I'm rather familiar with the rest of you, though," commented Marlene Eighteen, sighing. "I see duplicates of people that I... that I don't even know."
"I'm Suzy MacArthur," commented a girl who looked a lot like Elisabeth Shue. "I am the girlfriend of Marty Jr in my world, World Two. The same is true of Worlds Five, Seven, Eleven, Sixteen and Seventeen - which would make it five of us."
"And I'm Julie MacArthur," added another a girl who quite resembled Elisabeth Shue, but had lighter hair, "the cousin of Suzy. I quite exist in all the worlds that she does, but I was the only one who was captured. I'm from World Seven, by the way."
"I'm Harmony Brown," added a girl with bright blond curls. "In Worlds One and Four, I am dating Marty Jr. I'm from World One - and I was one of the second captured."
"I'm Susan Brown," added a girl with blondish-brown hair. "I happen to share a mother with Suzy MacArthur - and, in our world, I am dating Calvin Klein III. He really is about the closest equivalent to Marty Jr. Anyway, I'm Dr. Brown's great-granddaughter."
"Oh, yeah, and I'm Dr. Brown's granddaughter," added Harmony One.
"I'm also a granddaughter of Dr. Brown," added a girl who resembled Susan, but had slightly darker hair. "I'm Sarah Brown, and I'm from the year 2047."
"I'm also Sarah Brown," replied a girl who looked exactly like the girl who previously spoken, "and from the year 2047. We're both dating Marty McFly III, in fact."
"And I'm Maria Brown," added a girl who rather resembled Susan and the Sarahs, and had the darkest shade of hair. "I'm simply just a friend to Marlene and Marty Jr, and I am currently single. I am Doc's daughter - and there are three of me on here."
"I'm also Maria Brown," replied a girl who looked exactly like the one who previously spoken, "and, unlike the other two versions of me, I'm really not single. I am dating George Emmett McFly, who is the look-alike cousin to Marty Jr."
"Not to be confused with George Anthony McFly," added the Stacy who was dating the boy in question, "who is the twin brother of Martin Seamus McFly Jr."
"That's very fascinating," muttered Marlene Eighteen. "In our world, Doc doesn't have any descendants that are in my age group. So, at any rate, who else is there?"
"I'm Julia Belle Rundgren," added a girl with dishwater blond hair. "Uh, in my world, I sort of... replace you. You sure don't exist in our world, and I'm the one dating Mike Hartford. I'm from the world where George is Marty Jr's identical twin brother."
"And I'm Lisa Jung," added a redhead. "I'm also from the 1980s, but I was captured in the year 2017. I am just dating Mike McFly, who is the twin brother to Alex - and both of who are look-alike cousins to Marty Jr. I used to be friends with Jennifer, when..."
"It sort of feels very nice to have you on here," replied Jennifer P, softly, "even if our situation might not exactly be ideal."
"I understand what you mean," commented Lisa, softly. "Of course, it's a sure shame that either of us were captured - but it is very nice to see you as a teen, again. Even if you aren't exactly the Jennifer from our world."
"Mom did mention you, a few times," added Marlene Eighteen. "She fondly remembers you as her primary school friend. She rather does regret that she lost touch with you. So, at any rate, I'm not exactly sure what became of your counterpart in our world."
"Well, now, does that really matter?" snickered Griff, as he headed towards the back. "We have plenty of eclairs left, as well as a few bottles of Pepsi Perfect. All you really have to do is mind us, and kiss us whenever we ask it of you. Capice?"
"And you really must do it without gagging or crying," added Cliff. "Well, my comrades are off to another expedition. It might take us a little while, as we're quite determined to capture the wuss Amy of this world. We should've captured her, first time around."
Marlene Eighteen gasped, as she could hardly believe what she heard. Was he talking about capturing Amy Needles? She sighed, as she still couldn't quite get over just how there was a version of Amy Needles who turned out to be a major bully. Granted, she know that Amy's father was a major jerk - but his daughter were so much unlike him.
"We did come back earlier," pointed out Amy, "so, if this world is quite like all the other EJ worlds that we've visited, it should be easy to find the wuss me. We simply have to stop at Andy's Food Shop, since that's where my wuss self works. At this rate, it quite shouldn't take us too long. I'm looking so forward to teaching her a lesson that..."
"I'm simply looking forward to that," Griff replied, snickering. "You're sure you want to make this the last EJ world that we visit - and that you don't want to visit anymore PF worlds? I'm a bit disappointed that we managed to only capture one other Harmony."
"We discussed that on our last excursion," pointed out Cliff, "and we decided that it is quite high time for us to really get adventurous. So, after this world, we're really off to explore an entirely different world. The idea is making me feel very horny."
Marlene Eighteen swallowed, as she couldn't quite believe her bad luck. As she looked around, she saw that every other captive appeared to be just as miserable. She then wondered if the bullies would ever decide that they need some sleep. She sure began to pray that things would turn around, soon. She just felt terribly hopeless, though.
"I'm feeling rather horny, as well," agreed Xiff, as he began to step outside. "See you around, babes. Be sure to mind Griff, while we're gone."
Marlene Eighteen really blinked back tears - as she watched Cliff, Xiff, and Amy leave the train. Although there had to be, at least, forty captives - they really were unable to defend themselves, as they were restrained so securely.
"Well, well, well," smirked Griff, clicking his tongue. "I sure feel just like a kid in a candy store. You girls are all quite ripe for the plucking - and, quite frankly, I really hope that my comrades take their time. It'll allow for me have my pleasure alone with you all."
Marlene Eighteen opened her mouth to shout back a sharp retort, but no words came out. Tears began to spill down her cheeks, as really she felt hopeless. She thought of her brother, her parents, and her boyfriend - and she suspected that they simply felt worried about her. Would they be able to rescue her?
oooooooooo
Cliff grinned - as he, once again, was nearing the Courthouse Square. It was obvious that Xiff Tannen was enjoying the adventure, as well as Amy Needles. He quite loved being able to explore other worlds, and he figured that he could never quite tire of it.
"No matter what happens, Cliffster," purred Amy, "we must be rather sure to capture the wuss me of this world. Since this is an EJ world, it's almost rather guaranteed that the me of this world is the wuss version. Well, it is so hard to determine if I simply find it annoying - or just plain amusing. Perhaps, it might actually be the latter - as I..."
"You suggested that we visited one more EJ world," Cliff reminded his female partner, "even before we missed our chance to capture the wuss you of the last world. It sure will be a lot of fun, capturing her. I mean, we can have a lot of fun tormenting her."
"That's right, Cliffster," Amy smirked. "Well, after this world, I sure do think we should be a little more adventuresome. We definitely should check out a world that isn't quite like any world that we ever visited. It would be a world that isn't an EJ or a PF world."
"I definitely agree, Butch," replied Cliff, grinning. "Y'know, I remember that Rundgren chick mentioning something about a movie where... the McFly butthead and Crackpot Brown are the main characters. Perhaps, we even just try visiting a world where that movie exists - and we, on the other hand, really don't even exist in that world."
"I think she said it was a movie trilogy," pointed out Amy, "where there are three films quite focusing around those two clowns. For that, we should maybe just head back to your time. On the other hand, how do we guarantee that we'll land in such a world?"
"I guess we can't," Cliff admitted. "We'll just have to take our chances, and just pick a random destination. I really do like the idea of heading back to 1987. Since the train is getting quite crowded, we could maybe have a break from capturing girls - and..."
"Already?" groaned Xiff. "But I sure haven't been on this adventure for as long as you have. Then, on the other hand, we might get rather lucky - and find out that the next world is an ideal place for us to settle. Then, after we really take care of the Big Damn Heroes squad - all of our troubles will be over. It would be just like we're in heaven."
"You bet," snickered Cliff, "and the girls will simply learn to enjoy life with us." He then caught sight of the Cafe '80s, as he added, "Well, let's see if the girls are in there."
"I kind of would like to check out the mall, once more," insisted Amy. "Well, if the girls aren't in the Cafe '80s, then we'll scope out the mall. If I recall correctly, I think wuss me is working until four - so we'll just have plenty of time to capture her, once we..."
"I don't see any familiar girls in there," commented Xiff, as he peaked into the window of the Cafe '80s. "There are a bunch of hot babes, granted - but they're not the..."
"I know what you mean," agreed Amy. "As much fun as I'd really have with harassing all the buttheads who insist on being stuck in the past, we must not lose our focus."
"Right, it is better to focus on the task at hand," agreed Cliff, as the trio crossed the street. "I really am also hoping to find a Harmony in this world. Well, it's very unlikely that the Junior butthead will be dating anyone other than Harmony or Stephanie."
"Well, it'd really be weird," pointed out Amy, "if we actually found a Suzy MacArthur in this world. I mean, this is an EJ world - and all the Suzy MacArthur's are really from PF worlds. Well, if we really should find her here, then we definitely should capture her."
"I simply agree," replied Xiff, snickering. "Even if she's not really dating the Marty Jr of this world, we'll still capture her. In a way, I almost wish that we could visit another PF world. At least, I did actually have the opportunity to assist in capturing one Suzy."
"Don't worry, Xiff," chuckled Griff. "Once we get more adventurous, I think you rather will start to forget about capturing another Suzy. At any rate, who is to say that Suzy exists in only the PF worlds. We're gonna have a lot of fun, and the girls will learn..."
"Two words," Amy commented, as the trio stepped into the entrance of Courthouse Mall. "Stockholm Syndrome. After all, it sure has worked in many cases before. Who could say that it won't work with the chicks. So, comrades, where should we stop?"
"You sure make a good point, Butch," Griff replied, admiringly. "I don't think they'd be at Pier One, as it's earlier in the day. Perhaps, they could be out clothes shopping."
"Yeah, let's check the clothes shop," agreed Amy. "It'd rather be the best bet - and I'll bet that, being the buttheads as they are, they'd be totally obsessed with clothes."
"Comrades, look!" gasped Xiff, pointing. "It is the same restaurant where we captured the girls, two worlds ago. I do think I see Marlene and one of the Stebbs girls in there, as well... Believe it or not, it even looks like the wuss version of Amy is with them."
"Oh, my God!" squealed Amy, as she obviously felt excited. "Man, this is actually too perfect. I guess we won't have to stop by Andy's Food Shop, after all. It quite is not surprising that the wuss me is friendly with Marlene and Miss Stebbs. Well, I think..."
"Man, this is totally awesome," smirked Cliff. "We could kill three birds with one early worm. I am actually starting to feel all warm and tingly inside, as this is just all so..."
"It's 'kill three birds with one stone', Cliffster," corrected Amy. "But no matter. I think we should wait outside. If the girls do take longer than ten minutes, though..."
"Well, I thought of just busting right in," replied Xiff, "but I guess it's actually better to take them by surprise. They didn't appear to notice us, so I think we are in the clear."
"Yeah, I simply love surprises," chuckled Amy. "At least, when I'm the one that's delivering them. I'll be happy to teach my wuss self a good lesson - and, as course, it would awesome to give her a sound beating. Then she'll simply regret being a wuss."
"Say, would you comrades want me to go somewhere?" asked Xiff. "Since this is an EJ world, I'm gonna hazard a guess that Bill Tannen exists. I'm so glad that there's no Bill in our world. I think the look on the girls faces is rather priceless, when they think..."
"... that Bill has turned on them," Cliff finished, chuckling. "Anyway, I think it's actually okay for you to wait with us. I mean, I simply love seeing the shocked look on people's faces who thing that Griff and Bill has decided to team up together. It gives me a..."
"Let's be quiet, now," whispered Amy. "The chicks could be heading out, rather soon - and we wanna surprise them. That's probably my favourite part about chasing them."
Cliff grinned, as the trio leaned back against the corridor wall. He could hardly wait to see how the wuss version of his female partner would rather react to finding out that her counterpart was a badass bitch. He felt so tingly inside, he could hardly stand it.
oooooooooo
Amy Needles smiled, as she glanced across the table. It just felt nice to have Marlene McFly and Stephanie Stebbs join them, even if she didn't quite mind eating alone. She always was very fond of Marlene and Marty McFly - even though she quite knew that her father was never very fond of their father, Calvin McFly. Still, it didn't matter.
"You and Eric are actually planning to go out, this evening?" asked Stephanie, smiling. Amy's really heart fluttered, as she thought of dear Eric. He was so cute, and he was also a very sweet man. "I'm rather looking forward for my date with Marty, tonight."
"Oh, yeah, Eric and I have plans for the evening," Amy replied, smiling. "We have not been dating for long, but I'm almost sure that he simply is the one. So, you and Marty have been dating for quite a long time. How long has it been, since you first met?"
"It's been exactly four years, believe it or not," Stephanie replied, excitedly. "In fact, we had special plans for our big anniversary. There just aren't too many of us, really, whose romantic relationship has just... persisted past high school. I mean, we did not go to the same high school. Stacy and I attended a private school, while Marty..."
"Well, congratulations!" exclaimed Amy. "I think it is wonderful. When I still attended high school, I just could never stay with one boy for very long. At the most, I think I date this one boy for a little over a month. I guess, back in high school, I was a..."
"I rather used to be the same way," Marlene replied, nodding. "That was before Mike Hartford entered my life, though. It's just hard to believe we've been dating for over a year, now. I mean, even Dad finds it just a little amazing that we're still a couple."
"Mike does sound like one very special boy," commented Amy, softly. "Y'know, I quite wish that my father was... more like yours. I mean, I know that your father and mine never really had a good relationship. My father has always treated Roberta and I like crap, as well. Your father, on the other hand, seems to be rather loving and gentle."
"Yeah, he is," agreed Marlene. "Even though, sometimes, I have felt like he preferred my brother to me... Well, I know that that's not the case - and he's always been very open-minded and supportive. I think he's always tried to be reasonable, as a parent."
"I'm so glad that Mom has, finally, decided to file for divorce," replied Amy, as she still recalled just how overjoyed she was by the news. "She rather should've done that, a long ago. Dad's so mad at me, because I never visit him - and I don't call him, either."
"I don't blame you," Marlene replied, softly. "Well, I can hardly believe that your mom has finally decided to. The news is surprising to me, in fact. Good for her, though!"
"Yeah, I'd say so," agreed Amy. "My mother, at least, has been rather loving towards Roberta and me. Well, most of the time. I think she could be a little too subservient to him, though. I'm glad to see that it's starting to change, though. I mean, it's so..."
"Nice of her to take a stand," commented Marlene, nodding. "After all, it rather is not too late for your mom to... to start a brand new life. Especially in this day and age of rejuvenation surgery." Turning to Stephanie, she added, "Goodness! You rather love those BLTs, don't you. I mean, I can't believe that you actually ate three of them."
"Well, those BLTs are just so good," replied Stephanie. "I know how health-conscious you are, but... My mom used to lecture me about that, as well - so I quite see where you might be a... It's not like I ordered fries to go with it, though. I just ordered..."
"You do have a point," Marlene replied. "I mean, I myself have become more relaxed in my diet. Still, I don't quite think I'd actually go as far as eating three sandwiches in one sitting. That's just me, though. Far be it from me to judge how others eat."
"Well, I can say one thing for my father," Amy commented, softly. "He never hassled me about what I ate. Of course, he himself usually ate nothing but junk."
"Yeah, that really isn't healthy," pointed out Marlene. "Enough of that, though. I think I would like to purchase some cologne for Mike. Would you like to join us, Amy?"
"I'd love that," Amy replied, smiling. "However, it's almost time for me to head back to work - so I'm afraid I'll have to decline."
"Oh, okay," muttered Marlene. "Well, how do you like working at Andy's Food Shop?"
"Oh, it's all right," replied Amy, shrugging. "I mean, it's not exactly my dream job - but I get fairly decent wages for it. We do get the occasional rude customer, though."
"That's part why I'm not just too keen on the idea of working with customers," replied Stephanie. "I do tend to be overly sensitive - and I simply can't stand being yelled at, snapped at, or whatever. Anyway, I'd also like to pick up a little cologne for Marty."
"I suppose Eric might really like some cologne, as well," replied Amy. "Or else, he might prefer musk. I really just like the way musk smells, y'know?" She glanced at her watch, as she added, "Well, I suppose I should start heading back to work."
"We should get going, as well," replied Marlene, as she stood. "Well, you'll have to let me know how your date with Eric goes. I really hope that things work out for you."
"Thanks, Marly," Amy replied, smiling. "It's sure been awhile, in fact, since I was last in a serious relationship. I often simply regretted ending my relationship with Ted, but he was moving to Montana - and we agreed that it'd be tough to maintain a long-distance relationship. Now that I have Eric... Well, he's been nothing but sweet towards me."
"That's good to hear," replied Stephanie, as the trio began to make their way out of the restaurant. "I'm also happy for you and Eric, and I really do wish you..."
Just as Amy stepped out of the restaurant, she simply felt two strong hands reaching at her. She looked around, as she saw Griff Tannen - along with a brunette who quite looked a lot like her. Tears began to fill her eyes, as she began to feel scared.
"Go ahead and cry, you wuss," taunted the girl who resembled her. "It's simply about time that we found you. It's high time that you finally learn a lesson of your lifetime."
"Who the hell are you?" snapped Amy. "You bojos let me go, right now! I have to get back to work - and, if you make me late, I'll..."
"You simply have to get back to work, eh?" snickered the person who grabbed at her. She instantly recognized the voice, and realized that it also belonged to a Tannen. Of course, he really couldn't fathom the idea of Bill Tannen working with his cousin. "I am afraid that you'll have to kiss your job 'good bye', Miss Amy."
"Leave her alone, you bastards!" shouted Marlene. "I simply do not what the hell you think you're doing, but you let Amy go. Or else I'll... I'll call the police."
Yes! Yes! Please do! Amy begged, silently. She really couldn't remember the last time she felt so scared, and she was raised by a father who often frightened her.
"I see you want to join Miss Amy, eh?" snickered the other Tannen, as she grabbed at Marlene. "Well, I'd be more than happy to appease you in that area."
"Hey, maxole, I never said anything about..." Marlene began to protest, as Amy's evil doppelganger placed a cloth in front of her mouth. Amy felt rather incredibly horrified, as she watched Marlene fall unconscious.
Amy watched Stephanie take a few steps, before the evil Amy doppelganger grabbed at her. Tears began to spill down Amy's cheeks, as she struggled to get free.
"You aren't going anywhere, Miss Stebbs," snickered the evil Amy doppelganger. "It'll be so much fun, traversing time and space with you chicks as my captives."
Amy swallowed, as she wondered if her doppelganger was psychotic. After all, it was not possible to travel through time. It was something that only happened in fiction.
"What do you want with us?" pleaded Stephanie, tearfully. "We didn't do anything to you. Why can't you just leave us alone?"
"Because it wouldn't be fun, of course," snickered the evil Amy doppelganger. "I'm not a wuss, either. Certainly not like your friend, Amy - who I'm rather ashamed to call my 'counterpart'. That's why I need to teach her a lesson."
Amy began to sob, as she could hardly believe what she was hearing. Was it possible that her doppelganger was actually one of those creepy stalkers who quite wished to take over her life? But those people were supposed to exist only in horror movies!
"Oh, look, wuss me is crying," sneered Amy's doppelganger. "Well, as much as I really love to see her cry, her bawling is getting on my nerves. I'm gonna shut her up."
This, of course, only made Amy sob harder. Was her doppelganger just talking about killing her? She simply didn't want to die, as she really had a lot to live for. Before she knew it, she caught of whiff of a foul odour. She rather felt her consciousness began to slip away, until she was no longer alert.
oooooooooo
Marty McFly Jr Eighteen sighed, as the time bus entered another world. He bit into a chicken wing, as he figured that he should just eat something. He felt too concerned about the girls, though. He really could imagine how terrified they must be feeling. A tear then slipped out of each eye. This certainly had to be the worst day of his life.
"I quite understand how upset you feel, son," replied Marty Sr Eighteen, as he placed his arm around Marty Jr Eighteen. "I know how so excited you were. It was supposed to be a special evening for you and Stephanie, and then the Tannen bastards just..."
"It sure wasn't supposed to be this way, Dad," Marty Jr Eighteen sobbed. "I wish that this wasn't happening. I really wish I could wake up, and find out that this whole thing was a... I just wish that..." Suddenly, he was crying too hard to say another word.
"I rather feel like crying, myself," commented Teen Marty. "I mean, this is already the nineteenth world that we're in - and we don't seem to be getting anywhere. I'm really feeling exhausted, and I am worried sick about Jennifer - as well as... as all the other girls. I'll bet the girls feel about as ten times worse as we do, since they're the..."
"Since I'm still around," commented Jennifer M, "I'd rather hope to think that it means my younger self, my daughter, Harmony, and the others are just gonna be okay. On the other hand, though, that might not exactly be a guarantee that we'd actually..."
"Great Scott!" gasped Doc One, as he slapped his forehead. "I just realized something terrible. If those bastards end up creating a time paradox, this might create a gigantic disaster - when you actually consider how many dimensions would be affected by it."
"You're simply right, One," replied Doc Three. "Time paradoxes are bad enough, when it's simply affecting one dimension. Since there are currently nineteen dimensions involved, though - I can rather foresee a... Well, I'm really not sure of how exactly to phrase this. One thing is certain, though. It absolutely wouldn't be pretty. It'd be..."
"On the other hand, though," commented Doc One, "it could actually be only our world that would be affected, and the rest of the dimensions would be spared. Still, it isn't a... Gee, I certainly wonder if the bullies will ever be overcome by exhaustion."
"For some reason," commented Teen Marty, sighing, "I really have a hunch that those bastards are rather... thinking of settling in an entirely different world. Of course, the Tannens aren't smart enough to figure out that Griff's life would be endangered."
"Good point, Young Dad," replied Marty Jr One. "I can't exactly say that I'd shed any tears over Griff Tannen simply being erased from existence. However, there are also the existences of my sister and I at stake - as well as Older You and Older Mom."
"I guess you guys quite have it the worst," replied Doc Eighteen, sighing. "Since we're the newest one aboard, we likely are the ones who currently are the best in shape."
"Well, not just that," pointed out Doc Three, "but the whole mess quite started in their world from the year 1987 - as Cliff dragged Jennifer off to the 2017 of their world."
"I can't help but feel as if this is our fault," commented Doc '87, sighing. "I mean, the whole mess started in our world - and in our time period. I actually can't help but feel responsible for... for dragging all of you into this."
"We don't blame you for this, in the least," Doc Three replied, softly. "It's actually that Cliff bastard that's to blame. So, please, don't worry about us holding you at fault."
"This is so incredibly heavy," muttered Marty Jr Eighteen, as he lifted his tear-stained face. He glanced out the window, as he added, "Well, it's simply strange to think that we're in a new world. This world really doesn't look any different from ours, in fact."
"With a few exceptions," pointed out Doc One, "the changes in most of the worlds are quite minimal. Most of the worlds have changed strictly on a personal level. It's sort of like how, in most worlds, your father went back in time to 1955. He really changed the lives of his parents - and, upon returning to 1985, the world was mostly unchanged."
"Right, that happened in our world," confirmed Marty Sr Eighteen. "I mean, aside from my father becoming a published author, just about everything else simply appeared to remain unchanged. On a world-wide scale, that is. So, quite out of curiosity, are there any worlds where I... where I never went back to 1955?"
"Yes, our world does happen to be one of them," replied Marty Sr Ten. "Fortunately, my parents did manage to turn their lives around."
"The very same is true of our world," added Marty Sr Sixteen. "I mean, both the fact that I never went back to 1955 - and the fact that my parents managed to turn their lives around. Well, I did go back to 1955 - but just to retrieve an almanac from Biff."
"Yet, you guys actually managed to make it back to 1885," pointed out Marty Sr Four, "and Doc managed to be stuck in the past until the year 1893. I just think it's odd how the... How, other than not going back to 1955, the rest of my initial trips are the..."
"Uh, it was 1894," corrected Doc Three, "in both Worlds Three... which is mine... and Sixteen. I didn't finish building the time train, until a year later."
"Right, that's correct," agreed Doc Sixteen, "and, Marty Sr Four, I quite agree that I was very amazed by the similarities. Although, it was the year 2010 that we visited - not the year 2015."
"I guess that would quite make sense," replied Teen Marty, "since your initial plan was to travel 25 years into the future."
"Don't forget about our world," added Doc Thirteen. "Well, actually, I chose to stay in the past - until the year 1925 rolled around. I actually finished building the train in the year 1894, though."
"I still don't understand how my other self could stand it," commented Teen Marty. "It would've been so heartbreaking for me, to have my scientist friend living in the past."
"Well, it wasn't easy," admitted Marty Sr Thirteen One. "I really missed him, greatly. I came to a sense of acceptance, though - when I realized that Doc was simply happier living in the past, and it'd be incredibly selfish of me to really ask him to give that up."
"I agree with my counterpart," replied Marty Sr Thirteen Two. "Although, the fact that Doc actually made a brief stop in 1988 sure made it very hard for me - especially when our counterparts showed up, and it turned out that the Doc of the other world did..."
"That'd be us, by the way," interjected Doc Three. "Marty and I were stuck travelling between dimensions, and we really ended up stopping in that world. I was somewhat surprised by my counterpart's decision, but I recalled just how torn I felt. It sure was an interesting experience, indeed."
"Still, I knew that he was happier living in the past," continued Marty Sr Thirteen Two. "There rather was no sense in begrudging him of his decision, regardless of how much I might've missed him. Anyway, we just continued living on with our lives - and we..."
"Well, I certainly can't imagine Doc not being a part of our lives," commented Marty Jr Eighteen, sighing. "I mean, he and Dad have always been so close - and it's just..."
"So, anyway," added Marty Sr Eighteen, "there were only two worlds where I didn't go back to the year 1955?"
"That's correct," replied Calvin Sr Nine. "Although, in some worlds, the events played out differently. I really had came down with amnesia, when Grandpa Sam hit me with a car. As a result, I never even contacted the Doc of 1955. Thus, I also really ended up being stuck in 1955."
"I also ended up being stuck in 1955," added Calvin Sr Eight, "but everything prior to Doc's attempt to send me back to 1985 played out the same. However, I then simply got into a major accident - and then I had no choice but to stay in the past."
"Whoa, this is heavy!" gasped Marty Sr Eighteen. "I'm not sure of how you guys could stand that. I mean, I'd simply miss my hard rock. I suppose it's quite better than being stuck in 1885, at least. I mean, that would certainly be far worse."
"Well, it wasn't real easy," admitted Calvin Sr Eight. "I did manage to adapt, though."
"Of course, my amnesia made it rather easier for me to adapt," added Calvin Sr Nine. "As long as I didn't know what I was missing, I was quite fine. When my amnesia wore off, then I had already managed to adapt to the life of the 1950s - even if..."
"The events of 1955 also played out a little differently in our world," added Marty Jr Fourteen. "In our world, Mom had accompanied Dad on his initial trip to 1955."
"Well, that's rather interesting," commented Marty Sr Eighteen. "Did your grandma still end up hitting on your dad, even with your mom present? I'm just a little curious."
"Fortunately, no," replied Marty Jr Fourteen, softly. "I guess she rather wasn't brash enough to hit on another girl's guy. Still, the week was simply far from easy for him."
"Then you really have our world," added Marty E. "In our world, the intelligence levels of Dad and Emmett were rather transposed - and then some. Yes, I did say 'Emmett' - not 'Doc'. It seems as if our world is even more different... from all the others..."
"I was the one to invent the temporal field warping and displacement vehicle," added Marty Sr Seventeen. "Or, as you'd rather refer to it, a time machine. I did go back to 1955, in fact - and I ended up helping my father to become more confident. I'm quite positive that the sequence of occurrences during that week are diverse, though."
Marty Jr Eighteen was taken aback, as he could hardly believe how that version of his father had spoken. Even Doc didn't exactly speak like that all the time. It simply was a surreal feeling, indeed.
"Well, guys, we're just about at Marty's home," announced Doc One. "If my prediction is correct, he should be living in his parents' old home."
Marty Jr Eighteen swallowed, as he glanced out the window. He just hoped that they would be able to save the girls of this world, though. At least, one could simply hope. He turned back to his food, as he tried to force himself to eat.
oooooooooo
Martin Emmett McFly smiled, as he relaxed in his hammock. His friend, Mike Hartford, was lying next to him - and they had Led Zeppelin blasting from the stereo. He really was looking so forward to the evening, as it would be a very special occasion for him and Stephanie Stebbs. He closed his eyes, as he just enjoyed the perfect weather.
"I bet you can just hardly wait for tonight," Mike commented, softly. "I mean, you and Stephanie have rather been dating for four years. That's very impressive. Marly and I have dating for a little over a year, now. It's strange to think of how fast the time..."
"I know what you mean, Mike," Marty replied, in a near whisper. "Sometimes, it seems as if it was just yesterday, when Stephanie and I first met. It is rather hard to believe that it was four years ago. Man, so much has quite changed within those four years."
"I'd imagine so," agreed Mike. "After all, you're no longer in high school. I'm no longer a teenager, as I am now twenty years old." With a sigh, he added, "Anyhow, I really enjoy Led Zeppelin. They are a very good band, I must say. As of late, I simply have a particular fondness for Over the Hills and Far Away. I can never tire of that song."
"Oh, I love Over the Hills and Far Away!" gushed Marty. "I do have to admit, though, that I tend to cry just about every time I hear that song."
"Really?" Mike asked, stunned. "Well, to be honest, there are also several songs that tend to make me cry. None are from Led Zeppelin's catalogue, though."
"Here's what's funny, though," Marty replied, softly. "I can listen to the most bluesy songs by Led Zeppelin, and not so much as even get teary-eyed. However, when I hear the intro to Over the Hills and Far Away, then I quite tend to... lose it. It's just such a touching song, I guess."
"Yeah, the intro sure is beautiful," agreed Mike. "Well, at any rate, what are you and Stephanie planning to do? I thought that Marly and I could really just spend the night at our house. Sometimes, it's quite nice to just relax on your date - as opposed to..."
"That's sort of what I was planning to do, as well," replied Marty. "My parents offered to be out of the house, so that Stephanie and I might have the house to ourselves. It was so awesome of them to make that offer. I mean, I really do love my parents."
"Your parents are very nice people," agreed Mike. "If Marly and I get married - which, I'm pretty sure, will happen - I don't foresee that I'll be having any such in-law issues. I mean, I would even call your parents 'Mom' and 'Dad' - if they really wanted me to."
"I don't think they'd ask that of you," pointed out Marty. "I mean, you already have a mom and a dad - and it simply wouldn't be fair to... Well, I've known people who were forced to call their stepparents 'Mom' or 'Dad' - and I just don't think that's quite right. Not if they already happen to love their biological mom or dad. It's be so unfair to..."
"In that case, I agree with you," Mike replied. "I don't think anybody should be forced to call someone 'Mom' or 'Dad', if they're quite uncomfortable with it. After all, I simply understand how many people... reserve those names for their biological parents."
"Exactly," agreed Marty. "I know I'd be so pissed off, if Dad died - and then, later on, Mom decided to marry. Granted, just that alone would really bother me. However, if I was forced to call my new stepfather 'Dad'... Well, I would just absolutely hate that!"
"I can't imagine that your mom would re-marry," pointed out Mike. "Still, I simply know what you mean. I wouldn't blame you for feeling that way. I think I'd feel the same."
"I really think you're right, Mike," agreed Marty. "I simply used that as a hypothetical. Speaking of which, I rather wonder what Dad and Doc are doing. I know they were in the kitchen, when we went out. Working on some new experiment, perhaps?"
"Doc is quite a genius," commented Mike. "After all, he invented a time machine - even if he can never go public about it. That, of course, is understandable - considering..."
"If it wasn't for Doc," Marty pointed out, softly, "I doubt that we'd be as advanced as we are, nowadays. After all, essentially, he was the one who just got the ball rolling - so to speak. Well, why don't we be quiet for a little while - and enjoy the fresh air?"
"That sounds fine with me," Mike replied, softly. "This certainly is a nice summer day."
"Yes, it is," agreed Marty, as he stretched. "The day really couldn't be more perfect."
He relaxed, as he enjoyed the music. He could hardly wait for the evening to arrive, as he really planned to make the big date quite special. He began to fantasize about the day he would actually marry Stephanie. It was most likely they would name their future son Martin Emmett McFly Jr. If it was a girl, they might name her Mallory.
Just then, Over the Hills and Far Away began to play on the stereo. Tears came to his eyes, as the music sure was beautiful. He just let the tears flow, as he allowed himself to be moved by the music. As Robert Plant was just about to sing "you've got the love I need", though - the music abruptly came to a halt.
"Hey!" protested Marty, as he sat up in the hammock. He then saw his father and Dr. Emmett Brown standing beside the stereo. "Dad? Doc? Just what the hell is going..."
"I rather apologize for interrupting your leisurely reverie," replied Doc, gently, "but we seem to have an unforeseen occurrence." With that, he pointed towards the street.
"Holy shit!" gasped Marty, as he saw a bus waiting right in front of the driveway. To the hammock, he instructed, "Release!" He and Mike gently slid off the hammock.
"What's going on here, Doc and Calvin?" Mike asked, confused. "Why's there a bus..."
"I have not a clue," replied Doc, in a near whisper. "We'd better find out. I really have a strange feeling, though, that it's... that it's something rather out of the ordinary."
Marty swallowed, as the quartet headed towards the bus. The bus door then opened, and another Doc stepped outside. Marty almost fainted, as the sight shocked him.
"Great Scott!" gasped Doc. "You really must be me from the future. Well, what brings you over here? Did you come here to... to warn us about some future disaster?"
"Actually, I'm afraid that I'm not a future version or a past version of you," replied the other Doc. "I came from another world, in fact. Why don't you guys step on the bus?"
"What happened, Other Doc?" asked Calvin, as he sounded baffled.
"I am afraid that I didn't come to bring you good news, Marty," replied the other Doc, sorrowfully. "In fact, we've really been chasing after some bullies - who have actually been capturing girls, from various worlds. I'm quite sorry to say that that might've..."
"Bullies?" gasped Marty, as he could hardly believe what he heard. "Uh, what kind of bullies? And what kind of girls? I mean, just what the hell is going on here?"
"Cliff, Griff, and Xiff Tannen," replied the other Doc. "Oh, yeah, and Amy Needles. In some other world, apparently, she quite turned out to become a bully. Anyway, they have been capturing versions of Marlene - as well as, uh, whoever your girlfriend is."
"Stephanie Stebbs," replied Marty, as he felt stunned. "Wait a minute! Are you telling me that my girlfriend and my sister... might've been captured by those bastards?"
"Precisely," replied the other Doc. "I'm sorry, Marty Jr. If my prediction is correct, you and Stephanie have been dating for exactly four years - and you rather had big plans for tonight."
"In fact, I did," replied Marty, as a lump formed in his throat. "I really was so excited for this evening, and..." Realizing something, he gasped, "Wait a minute! Why did... You called me Marty Jr! How come?"
"That's your name, isn't it?" asked the other Doc, baffled. "You were just named after your father, weren't you?"
"Actually, my name is Calvin," replied Marty's father. "In the timeline that I originated from, my name used to be Martin Seamus McFly. However, I'm now really Calvin Seamus McFly. My older brother rather went from being David Arthur McFly to Martin Arthur McFly. It was hard for me to adjust to, but... but that was what happened."
"Great Scott!" gasped the other Doc. "I think I've been in this world, once before. It's just strange to think of your older brother as being 'Marty'. After all, he really doesn't look like a Marty. At any rate, I suggest that the four of you should climb aboard."
Marty swallowed, as he stepped onto the bus. He could hardly believe what he saw. There sure were plenty of people who looked like him. Most were wearing name tags that read "Marty Jr". There were also three Alexes, two Georges, an Emmett, a Mike M, and a Calvin III. He then noticed two Marty IIIs, along with a "Teen Marty".
He also noticed several versions of his father, several versions of Doc, and several versions of Mike Hartford. He saw three versions of his mother, and rather noticed that two were named 'Clara'. He wondered if the Claras underwent a situation that was similar to that of his father's. There was also a version of Jessica Hoffman.
To his surprise, he saw two versions of Bill Tannen - along with two versions of Aaron Nelson. While he really was close to both of them, neither were privy to the secret of Doc's time machine.
He saw that just three female teenagers were present. They included a pair of twins, named Melody and Jamie Brown - as well as a girl named Natalie. Upon a simply closer observation, though, he figured that Natalie was really a little older than a teenager.
He then realized that there were only a few females, altogether. He spotted a Susan, a Suzy, two Clara Bs, a Jennifer B, a Julia, and a Haven. That was about all, as far as the female count went.
As he simply took a closer look at the alternate versions of his father, he realized that there were two Calvins and a Michael. He then quite spotted four even older versions of his father, and then he saw that two were named Calvin. He even saw that one of them was Marty Jr! For some reason, that was rather shocking to Marty.
He then spotted a Vincent, who looked so much like Mike. There was also a Clint, who sure looked like a younger version of Doc. He also saw a Ryan and a Todd, who quite appeared to be around his age.
Finally, he spotted two Chrises - who both actually looked like Doc with brown hair. He wondered what relation they could be to him, exactly.
"So, uh, how long have you guys been at this?" Marty asked, nervously.
"Let's just say that you guys are from World Nineteen," replied Doc One. "So, yeah, it has been a long time."
"Perfect," muttered Marty. With sudden rage, he fumed, "Those bastards! This really was supposed to be our special day! Why did the lo-res bojos quite have to go and... and rather ruin things for us?" Tears filled his eyes, as he muttered, "Poor Stephanie. Poor Marlene. If those lo-res bastards do anything to harm the girls, I am gonna..."
"We all feel just the same way," commented Teen Marty, softly. "Believe me. We're all in the same predicament as you are. I mean, it's actually not pleasant for any of us."
"No, it most certainly is not," agreed Alex J. "So, anyway, I do need to make up name tags for you guys. You guys would be from World Nineteen. I suppose we have a Doc Nineteen, a Marty Sr Nineteen, a Marty Jr Nineteen, and a Mike H Nineteen?"
"Actually, not quite," replied Calvin, nervously. "I used to be Marty McFly, when I was in the timeline where my parents were rather unsuccessful. However, after I returned to 1985, I've simply been renamed Calvin Seamus McFly - while Dave had my old..."
"So, as thus, I am not Marty Jr," added Marty. "I'm just plain Marty. Well, actually, my full name is Martin Emmett McFly. The official explanation is that I was named after my uncle. In actuality, though..."
"Whoa, now, this is heavy," gasped Alex J. "Was I right, though - with Doc Nineteen and Mike H Nineteen?"
"That's correct," replied Doc Nineteen, nodding. "Man, I can hardly believe that..."
"We already have several other Calvins on here," pointed out Doc One. "We have the Calvin Klein Srs from Worlds Eight and Nine, as well as Calvin Klein Jr from World Eight. We do also have Calvin Klein III, who rather is the same age as the Marty Jrs - as well as your Martin Emmett. Then we have Calvin McFly from World Seven."
"The Calvin Klein Srs and Calvin McFly are all, formerly, Martin Seamus McFly," added Doc Three. "I guess we can refer to you as Calvin M Seven and Calvin M Nineteen."
"I guess that would work," replied Calvin, with some sense of uncertainly.
"As for Martin Emmett," continued Doc Three, "I suppose we could just call him Marty E. Although, I guess that sure wouldn't work - since there is also Martin Einstein from World Seventeen. Well, he can't quite properly be called Marty Jr - if his father's first name is Calvin. I guess writing down 'Marty Emmett' would be the best way to do it."
"And 'Marty Einstein' for the other," added Doc One. "Well, why don't the four of you grab a seat in a back? Have you folks eaten, yet? I guess it'd simply be around lunch, for you guys."
"No, I haven't eaten," Marty Emmett replied, softly - just as the group began to head towards the back of the bus, "and I'm not so sure if I'm feeling very hungry. I had my day ruined by those bastards, for crying out loud!"
"I quite understand how you feel, son," Calvin M Nineteen replied, gently. "Still, you must eat a little something. I mean, I'm also feeling rather worried - considering that my daughter was captured. Plus, I've become very fond of Stephanie. Still, it's..."
"Your father is simply right," agreed Doc Nineteen, as the group grabbed a seat. "You rather do need to eat." Turning to Doc One, he asked, "So, at any rate, what exactly is going on here?"
"We'll just give you abbreviated version," explained Doc '87. "Cliff Tannen... from my world... in the year 1987... stole DeLorean... captured Jennifer... went to 2017."
"Met up with Griff..." added Doc One, "traded DeLorean for station wagon... captured Marlene and Harmony... headed towards another dimension."
"Who the hell is Harmony?" gasped Marty Emmett.
"We'll get to that part, later," insisted Doc Three. "Two worlds later... traded station wagon for train... continued capturing girls... left towards another dimension."
"Two worlds later..." added Doc Five, "Amy Needles joined Tannens... continued capturing girls and traversing dimensions."
"Eight worlds later..." continued Doc Thirteen, "travelled to 2047 in our world... still capturing girls... Xiff joined Tannens and Amy... headed back towards 2017... into another dimension."
"Six worlds later..." concluded Doc Eighteen, "the bullies still persist with capturing girls... we found you lot."
"Okay, I guess I get what's going on," Doc Nineteen replied, sighing. "So, anyway, do you think we'll have time to capture the girls?"
"I still want to know who the hell Harmony is," insisted Marty Emmett.
"Well, I'm not so sure of how to say this to you," Marty Jr One commented, gently. "I mean, your name might not actually be Marty McFly Jr - but that's just because your dad's name was changed to Calvin. However, for all intents and purposes, you're our counterpart."
"What Me One is trying to get at," added Marty Jr Four, "is that, in our worlds, he and I are dating a girl named Harmony Brown - who happens to be Doc's granddaughter."
"I rather can't believe this!" gasped Marty Emmett. "There is a Harmony Brown in our world, as well - but it wouldn't exactly be proper for me to date her. I mean, she's just a newborn infant!"
"The same is rather true of our world," replied Marty Jr Two, "as well as many others. In Worlds One and Four, though, Jules Brown is considerable older."
"In our world," explained Marty Jr Three, "I'm dating a girl named Suzy MacArthur. It's also rather true of our counterparts in Worlds Five, Seven, Eleven, Thirteen, Sixteen, and Seventeen."
"In World Thirteen, I'm married to your counterpart," added Suzy, as she waved. "Of course, we're also from the year 2047 - which is thirty years later."
"And I'm her dear hubby," added Marty Jr Thirteen, just as he placed his arm around Suzy. "It feels strange to be surrounded by so many younger versions of me."
"Then there's me," added Calvin III. "I'm about the closest to being your counterpart. After all, it's not just that I have a different name from you guys. My lineage happens to slightly different, as well."
"Ditto for me," added Marty Jr Ten. "While my name actually is Martin Seamus McFly Jr, my mother is Julia Rundgren McFly - rather than Jennifer Parker McFly."
"I'm Julia, by the way," replied a woman with dishwater blond hair, as she waved.
"Anyway, we're talking about who our counterparts were dating," commented Calvin III. "In our world, I'm dating Susan Brown - who, as it rather turns out, just shares a mother with the Suzy MacArthur from the other worlds."
"Well, that's all very interesting," commented Marty Emmett, as he felt rather dazed. "I can't say that the name 'Suzy MacArthur' exactly rings a bell with me, though."
"We don't expect that it would," explained Doc Three. "I know it's confusing enough, that we're travelling between dimensions. However, in addition, we quite seem to be travelling between two different kinds of dimensions."
"The EJ world and the PF worlds," added Doc One. "There are various distinctive traits between the two types of worlds. Like, for instance, the personality of Amy Needles - as well as the existence of Bill Tannen. Amongst numerous others."
"So, uh, which one are we?" asked Marty Emmett.
"You really are from an EJ world," replied Doc One. "Your world is where Amy Needles is so nice, Bill Tannen exist, the Stebbs girls exist, Suzy MacArthur apparently doesn't exist - even though we aren't a hundred percent certain on that, as it's quite possible that she might exist. It might just be that her family never moved to Hill Valley."
"Don't forget about Mike Hartford," added Alex J. "In most of the PF Worlds, except for the one where the intelligence levels of Marty and Doc... er, Emmett... quite got switched, Marlene is currently single."
"In the world that Alex J just described," added Clint, "I'm Marly's boyfriend."
"Man, this is just so heavy," muttered Marty Emmett. "I mean, a world where Dad and Doc switched intelligence levels? That's a little hard for me to imagine."
"That's not an accurate description of it, actually," pointed out Julia. "The differences are a lot more extreme, in fact."
"Are you guys feeling hungry?" asked Mike H Fourteen. "We have mozzarella sticks and buffalo wings, with sauce of two kinds to go with it."
"I guess I'll try to eat something," offered Marty Emmett, as he did greatly enjoy both types of food. However, he still felt worried sick about the girls. "They sound good."
"That's a boy," replied Calvin M Nineteen, as he have his son's arm a gentle squeeze.
"Here are your name tags, guys," commented Alex J, as he headed towards the back of the bus. "By the way, what about Stacy? Who is the Stacy of your world with?"
"A boy named Trevor," replied Marty Emmett, as he reached for the name tags. "She moved to Elmdale, so that she could be close to him. Do you think they captured her, as well?"
"No, probably not," replied Alex J. "Not if she lives out of town." To Calvin, he added, "By the way, it sure seems strange to think... Well, it seems real strange to think that you simply are Marty - even if your name is Calvin. After all, my dad's name is Calvin - and, the thing is, he's actually the natural-born identical twin brother to Marty Sr."
"Ah, yes, I do recall hearing about that world," replied Calvin M Nineteen, somewhat nervously.
"I guess the same can apply to the other Calvins aboard," added Alex J, as he began to head back towards the front.
"Here's your food, you guys," added Mike H Fourteen, as he passed out four plates of mozzarella sticks and buffalo wings. "Hope you guys have enough sauce."
Suddenly, a loud beep went off. Marty Emmett was so startled, he nearly jumped.
"Great Scott!" gasped Doc One, as he glanced at a device of some sort.
"Where are they, now, One?" asked Doc Three. "What does the tracker say?"
"It quite appears as if..." Doc One started to say. "This time, it's neither an EJ or a PF world. This tracker tells me that they landed in TR #50. What do we do, now?"
"Let me take a look at that," insisted Doc Three, as he grabbed at the tracker. "Great Scott! They not only entered another world, but they appeared in Green Valley!"
Marty Emmett swallowed, as he actually had no idea as to what Docs One and Three were discussing. Tears then filled his eyes, as he began to worry about the girls.
"I think I'll take the controls, this time," suggested Doc Three. "We can decide what to do, when we see what kind of world we land in."
"That sounds find with me, I guess," agreed Doc One, nervously. "Since neither of us are familiar with that kind of world... Well, for all we know, it really could be the world straight out of George Orwell's 1984 - and Big Brother is still watching you."
"Please, don't even suggest such a thing," groaned Haven. "It's just bad enough that we're worried about a large group of girls."
"Sorry, Haven," muttered Doc One. "Well, for all we know, it maybe isn't that bad."
"Let's hope not," replied Doc Three. "Oh, yeah, and they also went back to the year 1987 - but on this same day. Well, guys, brace yourselves for temporal-dimensional displacement."
Marty Emmett swallowed, as he felt more than a little nervous about entering another world - especially if it happened to be one that even the two Docs who rather seemed to be in charge were unfamiliar with.
Upon reaching 88 miles per hour, the bus... along with all its occupants... departed from the Calvin Universe - as they arrived in a world that was quite vastly different from all the worlds previously encountered.
