The 80's are here

Dib had flat-out turned from his work, when he heard that. "That IS weird..." He switched off his PKE, and put it in his pocket upon saying that. "But not any weirder then a few things that have happened to ME in my life." He thought to himself a moment before snapping his fingers. "For starters, wanna know how I got here? To this Island?" He readjusted his glasses, before starting with this.

"I was exploring a supposedly haunted building back at a district in my hometown called 'Gingerbread Lane' which used to be 'Sweet-tooth Central' before something happened to it... Though just what, I don't know just yet." Clearing his throat, he continued. "Regardless... When I arrived at the place, me and my friends scanned the place from top to bottom... At LEAST..." He held up an index finger to emphasize the 'At Least'. "Until I found a hidden door in one of the rooms."

He shuddered a little bit. "I decided to investigate it, it'd be no harm right?" He waved his arms in front of him dismissively. "WRONG. The second I walked in it felt like reality was warping around me. I felt like I weighed 20 metric tons, though I'm NOT that chunky, it felt like I walked upside down a couple of times as I walked down it, and it felt like my head inflated like a balloon before returning to normal size." He shook his head, before holding it in his hand, rubbing it tenderly. "After a bit of a walk, I found this invisible door, managed to get it open and... Well, here I am." He pointed his index finger deeper into the city. "I found myself inside some condemned building not too far away from here."

"So, lemme get this straight." Lanette said. "You and your friends went to this haunted place, a candy store I'm guessing, and you found this hidden door that more or less transported you here? That's pretty far out."

[gantzgun74]

"Yeah, you got that right..." Dib turned the PKE back on, "But I'm not letting that stop me. I'm gonna keep on with my work and scan all of this stuff, you know, gotta learn about the surroundings and all of that. I'm the scouter and the inventer of my ghost-hunting group, so I still gotta take advantage of this oppurtunity." He scans a portal some more before turning back to Lanette, a thought seeming to occur to him. "What are you gonna do though?"

[danielcityheroes]

Lanette stopped to think about this. "I dunno really. I didn't really think about it much. But I don't think I'm just gonna book it though. I mean I did just get here. This could be way cool. You see a lot o' what goes on 'round here?"

[gantzgun74]

Dib chuckled, "Nah, I got here only a day or so ago, so I haven't been around for long." He pointed further in the city, "Why, just yesterday, I took this PKE and scanned this several story hotel not too far from here. The place is LOUSY with very high PKE readings, and when I tried to stay in a room there once, well..."

He seemed to flush a little. "I was more then sure I was sleeping in my bed that night, but when I woke up the next morning, I was smack dab in a public bathroom... The LADIES Public bathroom."

That likely got Lanette's attention. "Just so you know though," Dib seemed even more flustered then ever. "I would NEVER walk into a ladies bathroom myself, nor do I sleepwalk! I have NO IDEA how I got in there, and-"

[danielcityheroes]

Lanette just cracked up laughing. She actually found that pretty funny. "Dude, I think someone's got somethin' against you."

Meanwhile, not too far away, someone else just woke up. This person looked to be about the same age as Lanette and was wearing a mostly brown outfit and, more noticably, a Sherlock Holmes hat. "Where am I?" He looked around and saw the aforementioned dancer talking to someone wearing what looked like a Ghostbusters suit. "Lanette?"

((Hope you don't mind me adding another character.))

[gantzgun74]

An embarrased grin was Dib's response to the laughter. "Maybe..."

That was when he noticed the guy wearing the Sherlock Holmes hat not too far away. When he called Lanette's name, he looked to the girl confused. "Friend of yours?"

[danielcityheroes]

Lanette looked at the person not too far away and instantly recognized him. "Hey, Edwin. Cool to see ya." She said. She then said to Dib. "That's the guy I was telling you about. The Sherlock Holmes fanatic."

"I'll be there in a minute." Edwin said, as he was brushing his clothes off.

[gantzgun74]

Dib nodded to Lanette. "Ah, I see." He waved at Edwin a second, before turning back to his work. "Nice to meet you both, by the way. Glad yo see you're back together again."

[danielcityheroes]

"Yeah, things got real crazy back there. Who knew stage magicians can be so touchy?" Lanette said. Edwin got to the group as she started going into what happened again. "He kept bringin' out stuff like flying swords, he started teleporting, he started standin' on the walls and on the ceiling.
And he locked Edwin in a box rigged with explosives."
