Sing out my sorrows. (private RP)

[B gal]

(This is between Me, gantz, tsifan, kisashika, and ryocker only. Nobody else. Sorry)

A lanky teenage girl was strolling along the mall way.

She had shoulder length black hair that’s top area is hidden by a black sock-hat with white stripes that sags in the back (and a red bandanna underneath said sock-hat), blue eyes, a gap in her teeth, pale skin and dressed in a red t-shirt with black sleeves, purple shorts with red lines, long red socks that give her a grade A Zettai Ryouiki, a pencil in the back of her right ear, and blue sneakers. In her hands was a sketch book, filled with notes and the occasional doodle.

It has been several boring days. Before getting involved in things, she decided to explore in the backgrounds, taking notes on the differences and similarities to her world.

The only eventual thing that happened between those research days was running into an alternate version of May in a barren ghost town, still having the poster that was fluttered around in her note book, and the events that happened at the park and Bonsai city, especially the wizard involved one.

She than took notice of a nearby karaoke bar. Silently, she walked off inside it, curiosity getting the better of her.

Inside there was a rather somber mood, as if someone died or something. Everything was barely silent.

She silently walked along, trying her best not to draw attention. She than noticed another girl two years younger than her, and went to her.

The girl had long black hair tied in a pony tail, navy blue eyes, pale skin, and dressed in a pink hair scrunchie, pink tank top with a white t-shirt under it, a magenta belt with a purple circle buckle, red bracelet on her right hand, white skirt with pink kickers under it, and knee length red boots. She was twirling a straw inside a glass of water.

Things weren't going well for this other girl. Because of a mission the high council sent to her, she may never see her beloved Phineas for quite some time, and the few friends she knew were sperated from her. And worse of all, there are many versions of the guy they had been told to protect that she may very unlikely never find him, especially without their special lucky power.

She broke her train of thought when another girl with a notebook sat across from her. She silently looked at her.

[kisashika]

The usually busy mall was quiet today. Now quite as many people wandered aimlessly or window shopped- it was a slow day, it seemed.

A tall, skinny, black-haired boy shuffled past the barren shops and stores, keeping to himself. It had been a long day for him, being dropped in the middle of a park from fifteen feet- he was surprised he didn't break a limb from the fall- and then wandering around a town he didn't even know, trying to find someone who could help him. It had been an exhausting day!

Edd stopped in front of a restaurant, it looked like. But, as he examined the interior, it looked like a Karaoke bar. With a shrug and a, "It's better than wandering around looking lost.", the green hatted teen walked in.

He took a quick glance around, seeing if there were any other patrons in the bar- he took note of two girls sitting at a table by themselves. Edd considered sitting with them, but his nerves got the better of him and he took a seat at the bar, ordering a cappuchino. When his drink came, Edd took a long drink from the cup- oh, how he missed caffeen.

Shade strolled around the empty mall and noticed a karaoke bar. She decided it's a nice place to unwind before she continued her search for the angel of light.

She walked into the room, looking at two girls staring at each other for a while, but she decided that she'll meet them later.

She than took note of a lanky boy with coffee. He may be of some help.

She walked up to him, sat across from the boy, and ordered a coke. She silently awaited for her order to come, and took a sip out of it.

"So, what brings you here," She asked the boy. She decided to spark some conversation in the silence of the place.

Meanwhile, the two girls talked for a bit.

[kisashika]

Edd didn't pay much attention to the girl who sat down beside him at first, until she spoke- he jumped a little, almost spilling his drink.

"O-oh, nothing much, other than my being completely lost and tired." He shrugged and sighed, taking another sip of his drink. Something nagged at the back of his mind for a second- he had forgotten his manners! "Oh, and my name is Eddward, but everyone just calls me Double Dee." He gave a small smile, gap visible.

[B gal]

"Same here," Shade responded.

It's best not to mentioned she escaped here so she won't die. The boy seemed a bit jumpy when discovering her presence, so god knows how he'll react to that.

Shade gave an innocent smile.

"My name's Shade."

[kisashika]

"It's very nice to meet you, Shade." He nodded at her and drank what was left of his cappuchino. The bar tendor picked up his empty cup and got him another. With a quiet "Thank you", Edd took the new drink and set it down.

"I have a question, since you're the only person who has talked to me yet- do you know where we are? And I know that we are in a Mall." He added, it was something he learned after being friends with Ed and Eddy for so long.

[B gal]

"Well, I do know the town is called Void City," Shade stated, "but I questioned where this city is. It's none I ever heard before."

Come to think of it, none of the places she's seen thus far was none she has heard of before. It seems like a far-off world than where she came from.

[kisashika]

"Well, knowing that, I feel a lot more comfortable." Edd sighed and his body relaxed a little more.

The Bar-Tendor walked back over to the two at the bar. "Void City? We're on an island pretty much floating in the middle of every dimension that ever exsisted." The navy blue robot chuckled. "It's the fine line between your universe," He looked at Shade. "His universe," He looked at Edd. "My universe," Then he looked out at the two girls at the table. "And theirs. And anyone else you meet here. There is a very small chance you'll meet someone who came from the exact same universe as your own- Heck! You might even meet yourself from an alternate-universe." Super Nova laughed. "That's why I moved my bar here- it's an exciting city to live in."

[B gal]

Shade looked over in marvel at the owner's explanation. She noted that last part to herself, in case she ends up meeting a different version of that yellow skinned boy she met at a circus.

Speaking of alternate versions.....

"You know, now that he mentions it," Shade said, looking directly at the girl in the black sock-hat, "one of those girls does looked somewhat like you, Double Dee."

[kisashika]

"Do what?" Edd said, baffled. He was already confused from the owner's description of this place, and now there was already an "Alternate" version of him?

Edd inconspicuously turned around to look at this girl- well, there were two sitting there, and both had black hair like his- But one of them was wearing the same beanie he wore in middle school. "Good Lord, I thought Eddy got rid of that thing when I got into High School?" He said to himself. "But, I geuss since she could be another version of myself....." He shrugged and drank what was left of his drink(which was all of it) in one gulp, hopped off his stool and walked over to her.

The closer he got to this girl, the more she DID look like a younger, female version of himself- red shirt, purple shorts, red socks, blue shoes.... And the notebook- one of the hundreds that was thrown away because Ed drooled on it. Edd ws starting to think that if he spoke to this girl, his head would explode from the paradox!

Edd stopped right behind the girl's chair. The paradox thing wouldn't happen- he had just spent to much time reading Ed's comic books.

He tapped on her shoulder. "Hello, miss, I couldn't help but recognize the similarities between ourselves."

Back at the bar, Super Nova re-filled Edd's cup and laughed. "That kid sure is brave- I would never willingly walk up to another version of myself."

[B gal]

During all that, the two girls silently stared, until the one in the sock-hat spoke.

"So, are you waiting for somebody?"

The pony-tailed girl sighed.

"Well, I'm completely alone for the moment. My allies I'm... with I can't tell if they're close by or not, barring the occasional phone call from them."

She lowered her head down a bit.

"And I may never see my boyfriend for a long while."

The sock-hatted girl looked at her a bit concern.

"Well, I have two companions with me, so they'll show up eventually."

The pony-tail girl looked up, a bit happier, taking the occasional glance at the other two, but didn't catched most of their conversation.

"Well, that's good to hear."

A pause.

"So, what-cha doin' here?"

"Well, I was... sent here by a mysterious person, and discovered I'm in some inter-dimensional driff in the middle of nowhere. I decided not to take place in any activity until I took several notes on this place."

"Wow, that's... smart."

"Yes, well, knowledge would help oneself out of here, so I analyzed a bit in the side-lines."

The two watched as the robot walked over to another table, something one of the other two said caught his attention. The two than shrugged it off.

"So, what makes you decided the side-lines until completely understanding the land?"

The sock-hat girl gave a laugh, giving a smile similar to someone else gave to another one.

"Well, watching too many movies with this concept make me decide that one must understand where they were before actually exploring it and start an adventure."

There was a silent pause. Then, the sock hat girl looked a bit distrut.

"O-oh, I completely forgot to asked of your name."

The pony-tail girl gave a smile.

"My name is Isabella Garcia-Shapiro."

She gave an aside glance.

"Garcia is part my last name."

The girl raised an eye-brow at Isabella.

"Oooooooookaaaaaaay, than."

"And what's yours?"

The other girl looked at her.

"Oh, where are my manners? I'm-"

But she was caught off by a simple tap on the shoulder, and froze for a while. The girl looked up to noticed a lanky boy two years older than him with a mullet that could easily mistaken him for a girl, and barring the outfit, looks exactly like her.

"Don't tell me, you're named Eddward too?" The girl asked in a deadpan tone.

This is, what, the fourth one she met already?

[kisashika]

(Just so you know, this version of Edd is completely diffrent than most. XD)

Edd was taken aback by the girls statement. "W-why yes, it is." He was confused for a moment and then realized she had probably been in this strange city longer than him. So, she might have seen more versions of himself- GOSH! He wouldn't be able to take seeing more than one other version of himself, let alone twenty.

He took a second to collect himself from thoughts. "Well, since you already know my name, may I know yours?"

Nova put down the glass he was cleaning. "I suppose I'll get this party started." He walked over to the Karaoke computer, pressed a few buttons, and picked up the wireless microphone.

The music started to play and it filled the bar.

I've been around the world in the pouring rain,
Feeling out of place, really felling strange,
Take me to a place, where they know my name
Cause I ain’t met nobody that looks the same.....

(The song is "The Traveling Song" by Wil.I.Am www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwGgaBjoL3E )

[B gal]

(I know)

The girl looked at her alternate, a bit nervously. She tried to think about this carefully. On one hand, she won't know how he'll react. On the other hand.....

She sighed, knowing if she didn't revealed it, her other companions unintentionally would. She's not the best liar anyway.

"I-it's Eddward, with two Ds."

Isabella looked over at the two Edds. He was right.

[kisashika]

"I should have geussed." Edd smiled. "I suppose Mother and Father still weren't very original even in other universes." An idea popped into his head. "Excuse me for a moment." He walked back over to the bar and picked up his drink.

"Would you like to come join me.... And myself, Shade?" Edd chuckled at his own joke.

Nova kept on singing the slow song and started to sway along with the beat.

I’m a fish out of water lying out in the jungle,
[He a fish out of water lying out in the jungle]
I leave my peoples, my peoples, take me to my peoples
JUNGLE, JUNGLE FEVER, SHOW ME SOME LOVE.

Good to have somebody, good to have somebody,
To relate to, to relate to
Good to have somebody, good to have somebody,
To relate to, to relate to

[B gal]

Shade silently watched as he talked to his female alternate self. Her assumptions were right.

When Double Dee returned and asked her that question, she shrugged, giving a weak chuckle at the pun.

"Okay."

Isabella listened to the music in the background, with a smile on her face. Edd looked over at her alternate counterpart talking with the person he met.

Meanwhile, A young thin and lanky teenage girl in the back of the bar was cleaning glasses.

She had short magenta hair with black streaks in the back of it, blue eyes, a birthmark on her chin, several letters on her right arm, a stitch on her neck, black eye liner, circles on her eyes, gray skin, and dresses in a black neck choker, a silver necklace with a blue orb, black tank top with a green outline monster with a tie, a green tank top underneath it, magenta mini-skirt, a blue bracelet on her right hand, and black sneakers with blood red ends.

She looked over indifferently at the bar participants. It was a typical day when a new guy appears. She decided to get some better music around here once the boss is done.
