"GAME BANG!"
The Smosh Games crew shouted, each posing, holding their pose for about ten seconds until Joshua 'Jovenshire' Ovenshire walked over to the camera and turned it off. He turned around and looked at the mess they had made from the punishment. The punishment this time had been pie in the face, which involved whip cream and making sure it got in people's hair. Thankfully, not his hair.
David 'Lasercorn' Moss began laughing, and wiped the whip cream off his face, "This was one of the best punishments," he said, and flicked the whip cream at Jovenshire. He looked over at his partner in crime for the punishment, Matt 'Sohinki' Sohinki, who nodded.
"At least it's not sploodge," he pointed out, referring to one of the previous punishments. Anthony left the room and brought back towels, tossing one at Sohinki then at Lasercorn.
"And guess who has to clean up tonight," Anthony said, smirking. Sohinki and Lasercorn groaned. Mari Takahashi smiled. It was nice not being a loser for a Game Bang, "And you guys have to edit."
"That's not fair! We can't do both!" Sohinki complained, making everyone laugh.
"I'll stay and edit," Mari said, "I haven't done it in a while," she said, and walked over to the camera. She took it off the stand, and made her way to the editing room.
Ian, Jovenshire and Anthony said good night to the two losers, and left, leaving them to clean up the mess of whip cream. Sohinki went out to the closet, and pulled out the mop. He filled up the bucket, and brought it back to the room. Lasercorn was cleaning up the mess with paper towels, "That's not going to do anything," Sohinki pointed out, and began mopping. Mari poked her head in the room.
"Hey me and Wes are going to order pizza. Anything you don't want on it?" she asked.
"I'll eat whatever," Lasercorn said, and Sohinki nodded. Mari disappeared, and the two continued cleaning. Lasercorn looked up Sohinki, "You alright? You seem distracted lately," Sohinki looked up.
"Uh, no. I'm fine," he answered, and continued mopping. Lasercorn raised his eyebrow, but kept silent. He knew something was bothering his best friend, but he also knew not to push it. Lasercorn stood up.
"I'm going to get more paper towel. Be right back," he said, and left the room, heading to the editing room.
Mari was curled up in her chair next to Wes, both pointing at something at the screen, "Hey Wes, you got any paper towel in here?" he asked.
"Yeah over by my desk," Wes answered, "I really think we should leave that in Mari. It's a good line, and we can add some effects to make it look awes..."
"Do you guys know what's wrong with Sohinki?" Lasercorn cut in, and the two turned around, Mari spinning in her chair.
"Something's wrong with Sohinki?" Wes asked. He didn't leave his office much, so he didn't notice if one of the six gamers were acting strange.
"Yeah he's awfully quiet. Normally he says something about Joven or tries to make a joke, but he's just mopping silently. It's weird," Lasercorn answered. Mari shrugged.
"Maybe he's tired?" she suggested, and looked back at the screen, "We gotta leave that Iancorn moment in there," she said, pointing at the screen. Lasercorn sighed.
"Let us know when the pizza's here," he said, and left, heading back to the main room. He opened the door, and saw Sohinki sitting on a chair, head in hands, "Matt?" he asked, and Sohinki looked up.
"Oh, hey," he mumbled, and got up, grabbing the mop. Lasercorn stared at him, not moving from his spot, "Lasercorn you're freaking me out," Sohinki said, "Stop staring at me like that."
"Not until you tell me what's wrong," Lasercorn said, "And don't say nothing because I know you and you're acting weird for Sohinki. So there's two options. One, your brain got switched by aliens and you're not actually Sohinki, or two, something is actually bothering you," Sohinki sighed, and sat down, still holding the mop.
"You know how you decide to do something on limb, then kinda start wondering if it's a good idea after? It's something like that," Sohinki said.
"What did you decide to do?" Lasercorn asked, sitting down next to him. Sohinki opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Wes knocking on the door.
"PIZZA!" he yelled, and headed to the conference room. Sohinki stood up, and put the mop down.
"You're not gonna tell me?" Lasercorn asked.
"After pizza. I'm starved," Sohinki said, forcing a smile, and the two headed to the conference room.
Sohinki was lying in his bed, staring at the ceiling. He looked over at his alarm clock. It read 2:32 am. He sighed, and sat up, swinging his legs over the side of the bed and got up, heading down to the kitchen. He passed by Lasercorn's room, the door shut, and headed down the stairs. He grabbed a glass, and poured himself a glass of water. Sohinki stared at the glass, "Matt?"
He looked up and saw Lasercorn, rubbing his eyes, "What are you doing awake?" he asked, yawning.
"Couldn't sleep," Sohinki answered.
"Does it have to do with what you never told me?" Lasercorn asked, and Sohinki nodded, "You gonna spill or do I have to punch you in the balls to make you talk?" Sohinki chuckled.
"No, I like my balls unpunched thank you very much," he answered, and sighed, "My parents called me the other day, and said that they decided we needed to take a trip as a family because we haven't done one in a while," he explained. Lasercorn didn't say anything, just listening, "So I asked them where, and they said Europe."
"Europe? That's awesome! I would love to go..." Lasercorn stopped, "Wait, why are you sad about going to Europe?"
"I'm not sad about the Europe part, I'm stoked, expect for some of the tourist things they want to do," Sohinki answered, and Lasercorn frowned, trying to thing what tourist things people might not want to go to.
Then it hit him.
"OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH," Lasercorn said, "I get it," Sohinki looked at him, "The...camps," Lasercorn said, and Sohinki nodded, "But...why?"
"One, you can say concentration camps, I won't freak out," Sohinki said, chuckling, "At first I was like yeah I wanna go! Then I kinda thought about it, and...well, I kinda want to tell them I don't want to go, but at the same time I don't want to make them sad, you know?" Lasercorn nodded.
"When do you leave?"
"Tomorrow morning," Sohinki answered, and yawned, placing the glass down, "Anyways, I'm going to try and get some sleep. I'll see you in the morning," he said, and headed back to his room. Lasercorn stood in the kitchen, the wheels in his brain turning. He reached into the pockets of his pajama pants and pulled out his cell phone, calling Joven.
"Lasercorn? It's...like..., 3 am," Joven groaned.
"I know, but I need you to help me with something," Lasercorn said with a smile.
The next morning at Smosh Games HQ, Lasercorn walked into their offices, more like skipped, and placed envelops on everyone's desk, "Uh, Lasercorn? My birthday isn't for a couple months," Ian said, picking up the envelop, turning it over. Mari poked her head up.
"What is it?" she asked, taking it from him. Lasercorn flashed a smile.
"You'll see," he said, and Anthony and Joven walked in, "Joven you look like shit," Lasercorn said, and Joven flipped him off, grumbling something about a late phone call. He gave an envelop to them, "Now, you may open them," There was the sound of tearing and ripping, as the envelops fell down to the floor. Mari took it out.
"This is a ticket," she said.
"To... Paris?" Ian asked, confused.
"EXACTLY!" Lasercorn exclaimed, "As you may know, Sohinki and his parents are flying to Europe this morning as we speak, so myself, and Joven, thought it would be a good idea to surprise them! You know, go over as well? Explore the uncharted world of Europe!" Anthony looked up.
"Europe?" Lasercorn nodded, and Anthony shrugged, "I'm in," he said, "And our flight leaves in twelve hours, so we should probably finish up whatever work we have here then pack and meet at the airport," Everyone nodded, and went to split up but Lasercorn grabbed Joven, Ian and Anthony, pulling them aside.
"Alright, I have a plan," he said low, looking over at Mari, "It's called 'Operation get Mari and Sohinki together.'"
"We already tried getting them together but it failed," Ian reminded him.
"This time will be different, because we'll be in a foreign country with lots of opportunities to get them alone. And we're going to the city of love, so it will be easy!"
Everyone (except Mari) knew that Sohinki had a HUGE crush on Mari ever since they first met, and the Fantastic Four(that is what Lasercorn called them) were trying to get them together but there was a slight problem.
Sohinki was really bad(according to Joven) at trying to tell Mari how he felt, so they decided he needed a little push of encouragement. The number of times that Lasercorn threatened his balls was too high to count, but they all knew that if Sohinki didn't make his move soon he would miss out.
"So you think Paris will make them get together?" Anthony asked.
"No, the concentration camp will," The three exchanged a look.
"Uh, Lasercorn?" Ian asked nervously.
"Not like that! Jeez I'm not that crazy! (Debatable) What I simply mean is Sohinki might be sad and emotional, showing a different side, and then Mari can comfort him and then BAM! MARHINKI!"
"Yeah?" Mari asked, looking up, and the four turned around.
"Uh, I got you the vegetarian meal on the plane, is that ok?" Lasercorn asked.
"Sure," Mari answered, and went back to work.
"That was close," Joven said.
"So, step one is get to Europe, then we will proceed with step two," Lasercorn said, "By the end of this trip, they will be together."
