Chapter 2: What's Your Dimension?
Small author's note. I'm not sure how to write how Sally talks, with her babyish voice and all, so I'm just gonna make it normal. Sorry.
"Do you think they're dead?"
"Of course not Sally, Billy made sure they're fine."
"Oh gosh, Ghost is gonna kill us!"
"You're the one who turned the microwave on!"
"You're the one who said to set it for five minutes!"
"Both of ya shut up right now! Not only did you touch my microwave and open a portal, but you RUINED MY SPAGHETTI!"
"Acachalla, calm down hun. Look on the bright side, maybe we can adopt them!"
"No way! We have enough kids!"
"Wait, one of them is waking up!"
Mark groaned and opened his eyes. There were seven people standing over him. He sat up and rubbed his head. "What happened?"
"You got thrown out of a portal. You were almost dead, but I made you all better!" a young man told him, looking rather proud. He had blue eyes, black hair, and was wearing a medic outfit. A woman with very ginger hair and a green turtleneck patted him on the back.
"What?"
"Do you know what dimension you're from? Maybe we can send you back!" a guy in a pink beanie exclaimed. He looked both ashamed and afraid and his voice was laced with a guilty hopefulness. Before Mark could say anything Phil sat up as well.
"Ow," he said. He looked around in confusion. "What the heck? What's going on? Where am I? Who are all of you?"
"If you'd quit asking' questions maybe we could answer you!" a very fat bald man exclaimed in frustration. He had a rather heavy southern, cowboyish accent and was wearing lots of denim with a lot of food stains. Mark noted with disgust that he seemed to have barnacles growing off of the back of his jean jacket. Phil was taken aback by the man's response. He noticed the unconscious Dan right next to him and shook him to try and wake him up. It worked! Dan opened his eyes.
"Uh...Phil? What's going on here?"
"No idea."
"Hey, green haired guy! All your friends are awake already! Wake up!" a person in a ski mask and bright pink shirt shouted at Jack. The Irishman shot up and immediately regretted it. He felt light headed and had to shut his eyes for a second before he spoke.
"What the heck is going on?!" he yelled.
"You're in another dimension! We saw the portal spit you out into the street in front of our house!" a girl, who had to be at least twenty, said in a baby-like voice. She giggled. "You almost died, but Billy fixed you up! I'm Sally Acachalla Waffles, thank you! What's your name?"
"Uh...Sean. But I also go by Jack."
"Nice names! I'm Sue Acachalla, but I also answer to Suckish Officer."
"My name...is PAPA ACACHALLA!" the southern man shouted almost angrily.
"I'm Mama Gertrude. Sorry about my husband, he just likes yelling."
"My name is Billy Acachalla!"
"I'm Fred Soup, but call me Spooker!"
"And I'm Chris Ghosty. Call me Colon."
"Like.. the organ?" Dan said.
"Yeah."
"Okay...I'm Dan."
"I'm Phil."
"My name is Mark."
Just then a van drove up. Two men got out of it and walked over. One of them had on a gray hoodie, black jeans, and fingerless gloves. A man-purse hung at his side and swung as he stalked over. He had brown hair and brown eyes and a scowl on his face. He was pretty short compared to the man walking beside him. The tall one had bright blue eyes and black hair, as well as a slight beard. He wore an outfit like he was going to some fancy party, with a dinner vest, a dress shirt, dress pants, and very nice dress shoes. He didn't seem as angry as his partner. They both had the symbol for the number pi on their sleeves, but inside the symbol it said 'P.I.E.' The one in the hoodie stalked right up to Spooker and Colon. "Alright, what did you do?" he demanded.
"It was an accident! I was just trying to microwave some spaghetti-" Spooker started saying, but hoodie guy cut him off.
"You used the microwave?! That's not a microwave, it's a dimensional energy device! I thought we went over this!"
"S-sorry Ghost."
"Sorry?! We felt the dimensional energy flux all the way across town!" Ghost yelled. His eyes seemed to glint red for a second. The taller one put his hand on Ghost's shoulder.
"Calm down sir. They didn't do any harm," the tall one said with a very posh british accent. Ghost took a deep breath and seemed to calm down a little, but he was still glaring daggers at Spooker and Colon. "Now, who are these people?"
"They came out of the portal," Colon said quietly, staring at Ghost like he was afraid the man would attack him. Ghost sighed and smacked his forehead.
"Great. Okay then," he mumbled. He cleared his throat. "Greetings, I am JOHNNY GHOST, PARANORMAL INVESTIGATOR EXTRAORDINAIRE! AND THIS IS MY PARTNER JOHNNY TOAST!" he shouted very loudly. Everyone flinched at the volume. "So, what dimension are you all from? The Thirteenth Dimension? The Nineteenth? Maybe the one where all the McDonalds are built out of dirt and custard?"
None of the YouTubers spoke. They were more confused and bewildered than they had ever been in their lives. They just stared at the people in front of them. Finally Jack spoke up. "What the crap are you on about? What do you mean what dimension are we from?"
Toast peered at them curiously. "Sir," he said, "I do believe they genuinely don't know what dimension they're from."
"What? But everyone knows what their home dimension is."
"Okay, can someone explain what the heck is going on?" Dan asked. He rubbed his forehead as he tried to wrap his mind around everything he just heard. Phil just stared at Ghost with a look of complete perplexion. Jack and Mark were both looking around them, trying to figure out where exactly they were. Ghost sighed in irritation.
"Okay, this is going to be complicated and long. Just try to pay attention."
