Inter-dimensional rifts were always so much fun. At least, they were in video-games. Which Jonny hoped he was in right now. That would've been so awesome! Being inside a video-game, just him and his best buddy Plank against some big bad villain. So much fun. Granted, the way he shot through it wasn't fun. It wasn't fun at all. Neither was slamming into the ground. Or getting up only to have the piece of wood known as 'Plank' slam down onto his head.
"Owww, watch it, will ya buddy? I need all my life-points if I'm going to beat the villain of this video-game." Yeah. Delusional, as usual.
He thought he was in the clear, that he wouldn't be hurt again any time soon. Then the metal pipe he'd been swinging around came slamming down onto his head. He stumbled around a bit, as dazed as could be.
"Woo, that was fun, but I should hang on to my life points, and..." With that, he collapsed.
Now, if this were ANYONE else, first order of business would be to find out exactly where he was. But Jonny wasn't anybody else. When he leaped back to his feet, he held his pipe out threateningly, spinning around in every direction.
"Gotta be ready for anything in a first person game, buddy."

"(grumblegrowl)... cursed Super Children with their cursed powers and cursed friends and cursed luck despite being turned into pooches..."
But was the freakishly large-headed youth ready to face a freakishly large-headed simian, stomping down the street in tattered clothes after his last defeat?
"Curses, curses, CURSES!!![/b]"

Jonny heard a voice. A voice not belonging to he or his best friend. Now, being that he thought he was in a video game, he could have guessed that it was some random enemy that he would have to fight and/or beat. But he did not.
"You're crazy, buddy. When do the minor villains EVER talk in a video game? And I wouldn't be tossed straight into a boss fight so soon, right?" Jonny asked of his best friend, letting out a low chuckle.
"Now stop kidding around and let's follow the sound of that voice."
Now, any normal person would be cautious, most likely. Even Plank reprimanded the boy. Well... he would've, if he could actually talk. So what did Jonny do? He ran into the street, throwing caution to the wind, screaming at the top of his lungs.
"HEEEEY, WHO'S THEEEERE?!" Jonny boy yelled, swinging the pipe in his hands in an erratic fashion. Yeah. Best idea he could come up with.

A battered looking gerbil ghost climbed out from behind a barrel and glared at Johnny as he ran down the street.
"Hey, keep it down, kid! Some of us are trying to sleep, and you're not helping!" she yelled at him. She sighed, and grabbed her sole item of value, a miniature scythe that was twice as large as she was, and started floating after the big-headed boy.

Jonny quickly turned at the sound of another voice. What he saw shocked him beyond beliefs. A ghost gerbil. Holding a scythe.
"Oh my gosh, Plank! It... it... it's floating!" Granted, the only thing that bothered Jonny about a gerbil ghost was it not being effected by gravity.
"Hm. I think our task might be to save that cool looking guy over there," Jonny gestured to the simian, "from the gerbil... maybe. I don't understand this game. Or, oooh, maybe the gerbil's a guide that follows us wherever we go! What? Whaddaya mean I'm an idiot? Well that's not very nice, Mr." Jonny reprimanded the piece of wood.
"I don't mean to be rude, but... what game is this?" Jonny just asked the question in general, turning back and forth between both the gerbil and the simian. "And another thing!" He was screaming to make sure they both heard him. In case they weren't completely in earshot.
"Have you seen the other kids?! Uh... Ed, Edd, Eddy, Kevin, Nazz, Rolf, Sarah, or Jimmy? Or even the Kankers? Or is this a single-player game?" the large-headed boy might be in for a rude awakening.

Snowy shot Johnny another glare. "Okay, short stuff, I ain't no Navi. If anything, I'm closer to a Midna. I don't help people. I steal their freakin' souls. As for those other guys you mentioned, well, you can't go nowhere without hearin' about the Super Kids or whatever they're called."
She turned her back to Johnny. "Now stop bothering has-been villains and go back through your portal. You're liable to get yourself killed if you keep this up."

A light frown formed on Johnny's face. "Well, thanks and all, but... I can't go back. Not just because I already forgot where it is, either. But also because... if my friends are here... I wanna stay. Even if this IS just a totally awesome real-life situation and not a totally awesome video-game situation. So... thanks for the help, and for not stealing my soul, but... Jonny Woodstock stays!" He crossed his arms, a look of determination on his face, before pausing.
"Well, that, and I forgot where the portal is." He said sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head. "Which is not to say that I couldn't find it if I wanted to, but... uh... I couldn't find it if I wanted to. So, uh... villain, you say?"

Snowy crossed her arms. "I'm talking about Mojo over there, not myself. I'm just the talking animal sidekick of my stupid owner, who left me for dead in this alley before going missing. If you're looking for the Eds, I'd suggest heading towards the apartment complex. The one with the sock on his head doesn't leave there much anymore, I think, since he had a kid recently. Cute kid too, from what I heard."

"Right! I'll head there after Mojo does whatever it is he's going to do. It's in the hero/villain code that I let him at least attack/try to manipulate me. At least, that's what my good friend Captain Melonhead told me." The boy was completely serious, too. He did, in fact, sit down, legs pulled in a lotus position.
"Hey! Mojo! I'm friends with the... Super Kids, I think the ghost told me they're called..."

As Jonny approached the monkey, he was abruptly halted by a gloved hand held right before his face. It was a rude gesture, one that meant 'shut up' and 'hang on, I've got an idea' at the same time. He took a moment to contemplate the situation, then turned back to the bald kid.
"...did you say... you're aquainted with the Super Children?"

Jonny's foolish smile never left his face. A million thoughts were running through his head. Some of them being 'wow a real super-villain!' or 'this is gonna be so awesome'.
"Yeah! Well... I wouldn't say we're 'friends', but I would say we're acquaintances." The large headed boy was visibly giddy.

Mojo looked him over very carefully, his evil train of thought darting this way and that through his superbrain. "...I see... Are we talking about good acquaintances or otherwise? ...which is to say bad acquaintances."

"Oh, we were good acquaintances, yeah." Jonny answered, as giddy as ever. He was selectively choosing to ignore Plank, whom Jonny imagined was screaming at him to bolt. Which he wasn't prepared to do.

"Ah... I see, I see!!" Mojo took a moment to cackle to himself, confusing many an innocent bystander, before turning back to Jonny. "Do you know... that I know where you can find them?"

"You do?! Will you tell me where to go?! I mean, the gerbil lady told me a location, but.... not exactly WHERE it is, so..." By this time Jonny was visibly shaking with excitement.
