The "Channel" Surfer
The beginning
Before I start just keep in mind my grammar and spelling suck so SHUT THE HELL UP ABOUT IT! Also I like to make a few movie, game and TV references so if it sounds off… just tell me in a non "you're a dumbass" way (I get a lot of that on youtube). And last but not least, this is my crappy story, im telling it, so no comments if you have a better way to write it.
I woke up that morning and the sun was gone,
Turned on some BOSTON to start my day.
Got caught up in my Favorite song,
Then some warp gate… Thing, Opened.
(If you didn't get the song parody… IM NOT TELLING YOU WHAT IT IS!)
So like I was saying, I woke up around 12:00 and put on my favorite band. Yes I like Classic rock, so what. So I was listing to my favorite song when I saw a strange looking dude outside my window. He was on the side walk with some kind of map looking around my yard. He kinda looked like that scientist from Back to the Future, but with black hair and a scare on his left cheek.
I ignored him and decided to watch TV. Just for your info, im not a Nintendo playing, card collecting, TV nerd… But I like classic and Next Gen games, collected my fair share of pokemon and yugioh cards, and watch a lot of TV. Well in the middle of a funny episode of FamilyGuy, the door bell rings. So I got up to see who it was. Im usually not like those idiots who open the door in a horror movie, so I looked in the peek hole. That creepy man was outside my door just looking at his map then turning to the door then back at his map.
Well I had a few options to choose from. I was looking toward telling him, "Go F#K off", but I wanted to know who he is and what he wants. So I opened the door and the first thing he said was, "Did you ever want to enter Television Programs?". SLAM! I just slammed the door and walked away. Didn't look back, didn't ask questions, Walked towards the door of my room when I felt wind. Ok at this point you would probably think (If you didn't read the first 5 lines) that it was the AC.
So thinking it's the AC, I waked in to find a purple, Swirling, void of no return type thing, about the size of… well me! A dark silhouette of a man (heh, Another song parody) came out of it. "Hey, Marty get out of there and see this!" At this point some of you have no idea what that whole thing meant, well to the others who did… Give your self a pat on the back. I then realized that it was Marty, and the Doc from Back to the Future!
The shock hit my blatter and… Well I don't think I need to say anymore on the subject. So out comes Marty with his usual OH SH!T look on his face. The doc came up to me, took off his black wig and fake scare. "So, do you or do you not?". I was just stunned and couldn't get Huey Lewis out of my head. I started to hum Power of love and say things like "I'm Crazy" and "That's the Power Of LOVEEEE!" Then he tapped me on the shoulder and said, simply, "Well?".
I tried to stop looking like a complete idiot and was about to ask what was going on but Marty asked for me. "Hey Doc, this is heavy man. Where are we?" Then the Doc turned to Marty and said, "We are in the unthinkable." Then he turned to me and said, "Where are we, Place, date, ect." So I ofcourse answered him, "Huntington Station, NY, June 1st, 2007. Its Saturday" Then Marty looked at me like he saw a ghost.
"You're Ricky Roman! The Real Ricky Roman! Oh my god!" I started to feel like a celebrity who walked into a Ricky Roman Fan Club. Then Doc came up to me and said, "Your birthday is only 7 days away and I want to give you an early gift." Before he said another word I shouted, "Look, how did you get here. Your just movie Characters for crying out loud! What the F#K!"
"Your right, just 1 minute ago I was just another movie character, but now im not! I was in my lab one night working on the Delorean when a small pin fell into the Flux Capacitor. The numbers started flashing and the car was going nuts. The car wasn't at 88, it didn't even get past 0, it just ended up here. After close observation, I found myself in your world which in our world is called The life and times of Ricky Roman. A Hit show on Channel 10."
So I couldn't say a word. Me and Marty's face looked exactly alike in every way. "So I went back and created what I wanted to give you earlier, the Surfer Remote! There wasn't or ever will be anoth… what is this wet…"
"So you were saying Doc?" I said in a "smooth recovery".
"Oh, right… There wasn't, or ever will be another remote like this." Then he took out a chart and two watches. "If you ever need me, just contact me. Also have this to remind you of the rules I found out about Inter-Telervisonal travel. Now me and Marty have to go back to our Universe." He started to walk away and then I thought of some thing, how would he get back? So I shouted, "Hey Doc, how you getting back if this is the only remote?"
"Great Scott! I didn't think of that… I never tested it but there's a button called OWT- One Way Trip. Point at us and push that button." So with out question I pressed the button and just as they entered, they left. Well with nothing left but to clean my Yellow floor, I took out the chart. This is what it said:
You can take what ever is on your person
You cant take anyone from another universe with you, Unless you use OWT
No eating wile in mid Inter-Telervisonal Travel
You have the power to do what ever in any where in a lower class (OTHER CHART)
Wait… I only have one chart, what the hell! Well ill call him later and ask about that.
You will become what ever environment your in (as in you're a cartoon in a cartoon)
You can go to any show at any time
Yes, you can go into games
Time will be stopped in your world until you come out of the show
You can fix anything in the show and erase any thing you did
While in the Telervisonal Universe, you don't age
Last but not least… DON'T PRESS THE BUTTON 0, 4 TIMES IN A ROW! It has never been done so don't try anything
So after that, I took a look at the remote. This is the set up:
[A [B [C [D [E
[F [G [H [I [J [K
[L [M [N [O [P
[Q [R [S [T [U [V
[W [X [Y [Z
[1 [2 [3 [4 [5 [6 [7
[8 [9 [0 [ENTER [
[ SPACE [MENU
[E [LS [OWT [T
[ALM [BTMU
Well I finished studying the remote so I put on the watch to call the Doc. I hit a few buttons and I got it to go into walkie-talkie-picturephone… whatever… mode. It was like looking at a snowy TV screen, the way it just was buzzing. Finally a picture came in and it was Marty. So before he could say anything I just told him, "Where's the other chart?" Marty had that OH SH!T look again and shouted for Doc. I would call him Emit Brown but I can barely spell it so im calling him doc from now on. Like I was saying, Marty called for Doc and he came up to the screen and said, "Hey Ricky! How's the remote?" So I told him, "I need the other chart to find out what, 'You have the power to do what ever in any where in a lower class (OTHER CHART)'meant."
"Oh that chart, well it's not completely necessary. Any universe has its own physical boundaries, mostly cartoons. Any time the physics are different then your own you have the power to do what ever you want! But in some where, where it is really close, your power is limited." I just said a simple good bye and shut off the watch. Power. Pure Power. I had to use the remote, I just had to. But I guess I could wait until next Chapter to do it.
