Edward Elric was stumped. How this room had come to exist, and how the people gathered in the room had gotten there was beyond reason. There were at least two...no, three, versions of himself gathered in the room, along with at least two versions of a guy with spiky blond hair, and three very different versions of a woman he didn't know.

Adding insult to injury, he was stuck here with Ducky. The hacker had tried, unsuccessfully, to flirt with the women, and after the last one, was hiding behind the nearest chair. The dark-haired woman dressed in black had a couple of knives, and had been more than willing to “Show” them to Ducky.

"So...what're we supposed to do now?" The shortest (and boy, was he EVER short) Ed asked. One of the spiky-haired guys shrugged, and the dark-haired woman snorted.

"Oh this is just peachy. We're trapped in a room with different versions of ourselves, and you two knuckleheads are trying to figure out what we're supposed to do?!" That set the shortest Ed off, and it took the funny-dressed Ed and the other Ed to restrain him, along with both of the spiky-haired guys.

"Vengeance, do you HAVE to provoke him?" The woman with brown hair and blue eyes asked her violet-eyed counterpart.

"Shut it, Vampire-girl. What I do is my own business. It’s not my fault Ed asked a stupid question!” The funny-dressed spiky-haired man glared at Vengeance.

“Hey, don’t call her Vampire-girl…”

“Morelli, I can handle myself in an argument. You two work with your counterparts, and try to figure out a solution.”

The platinum-haired woman frowned, and in a thickly accented voice, asked, “And myself? What am I to do? Vato is probably worried sick about me.”

“Calm down. We’ll figure something out…right guys?” The normal-looking spiky-haired guy smiled.

"Are you in charge here?"

"No, but I'm full of ideas."

At that moment, a door that hadn’t been there before opened. “Okay! Time to get this mess sorted out!” A tall blonde woman entered the room. “…oh crap. Guess I waited too long…” Ed frowned at the woman.

“Who the hell are you?”

“The author of a couple of the fics that most of these characters are in. Gimme a few minutes, and I’ll get everyone back to their proper universes, with no…SHIT!” The woman took off running as several people chased after her, leaving Ed to wonder what the hell had just happened.

“…Ducky?”

“Yeah?”

“Let’s get the hell out of here…before we lose any more braincells.”

"Gladly...can we get espresso on the way out?"

"...We'll need a lot of it."
