Okay. Let me start. I didn't expect to finish this today! But YAY! Haha I hope you like this little...one-shot? Please review if you liked it!
-On Tumblr, Dance Central tag-
Anonymous : Did you know? Dance Central Connection is FINALLY on the top 25 in the app store!
Anonymous ( in reply ) : It's not there -.-
Anonymous : IT ISH D: at least I have it!
-Back here-
The Dance Central Connection is an app on the app store. It allows a person from our dimension to talk to someone from Dance Central, the game. However, not everyone can have it. Only those who have reached a hidden level in Dance Central 3 can download it.
Many may say "Oh, it's so fake. It's just the computer we're talking to." It's not. It's actually your favorite characters talking to you! How was it created, you ask? It was created by a scientist who invented dimension traveling. Being an avid fan of Dance Central, that was Dr. Felix's first destination. He wasn't alone. Lima was also a big part of this production.
Every single dancer in Dance Central possess this app. Surprisingly, everyone LOVES it. Using this app, they chat daily with their friends in our dimension.
-Somewhere in our dimension-
"Nina! Get down here right now and get your breakfast before you're late for school!" My mom nagged. I was on my bed. I actually already got ready for school, but I couldn't resist talking to Glitch again. He was actually pretty fun to talk to, not that I doubted it for a second.
'Moms calling. Sheesh. Shes such a nagger, man'
'XD no matter how bad she is, cant compare to Mo -.-'
'LOL what did he do?"
I was walking down the stairs, carrying my school bag over my shoulder, awaiting Glitch's reply. I looked up from my iPhone to see a plate of scrambled eggs on the table. I walked over and put my bag on the floor and my phone next to my plate. As I took a bite, my phone beeped. I smiled before picking it up.
'Whenever mo wants me to do sth he calls me a million times -.- sometimes I question his sexuality…'
I burst out into laughter as I took another bite, my fork accidentally hitting the side of my lips.
'LOLOLOLOLOL I ALMOST SPIT OUT MY EGGS XD'
"Nina! Put your phone away so you can eat!" My mom said sternly from across the table. I rolled my eyes before eating up the entire thing. I then picked up my bag and walked towards the porch of my house. "Mom, I'm waiting on the porch for the bus!" I yelled out, not really bothering to hear her reply.
I sat on the steps and pulled out my phone after I heard it beep.
'…whuuuuuuuut…'
'LOL I MEANT MY BREAKFAST XD'
'ah. That makes more sense.'
I smiled to myself before running towards the yellow bus in front of my house. As I stepped onto the bus, the sound of loud chatter almost blew me away. I walked over to the back of the bus, barely missed being tripped by some of the popular kids.
'in bus to school now, listening to my fav song. Almost got tripped by the popular kids -.-'
' in the bus too. I got tripped too O-O you okay? What is it?'
'Yeah ^^ When can I see u again by owl city. It is AWESOME.'
'sure it is, but cant be better than skrillex! ;)'
I smiled once more, knowing that as long as I had Glitch to talk to, my lonely days were over.
-Storyteller mode-
As the days passed by, Nina and Glitch became close friends who shared everything with each other. Every second of everyday, they were focused on talking to each other.
Every single tine Nina played Dance Central, she loved picking to play with Glitch and always recounted to him through the app how well she fared.
-In the Dance Central Dimension-
Lying on my bed, arms crossed above my head, I was thinking about her. Nina. I really wanna see her in real life. I then daydreamed about our first meeting and how it would turn out.
Suddenly, I was tossed off my bed and onto the floor. "OW!" I looked up to see Mo staring down at me, arms crossed. I glared at him. "What was that for?!" "Ever since ya got that app, that's all ya eva do! Text that girl! Listen, lil G, I know ya like er and all but ya can't be on the phone all day…" Mo said.
I then left Mo in the room as I walked out.
-Wednesday that week-
Everyone in every crew assembled at the DCI HQ. Apparently Rasa and Lima had something to announce. Since they were gracious enough to not leave us any seats, Lil'T and I sat on the floor.
"Alright agents, I'm happy all of you turned up today. Unlike SOME people who skipped, last time." Lima was glaring at Emilia and I. "Anyway, you will all be glad to hear that there will be an inter-crew dance competition!" Lima said happily.
"No offense, Lima, but why should we, of all people, be excited?" Dare asked in her British accent. "Glad you asked, Dare. We know how all of you are very happy with The Dance Central Connection app, so the winner will get to spend a week in the other dimension."
Everyone's eyes widened, hearing this. Including mine. You mean…There's a chance for me to meet Nina? FOR REAL? SWEET!
"This competition will be held next Monday. For more details, check out the flyer that will be pinned up on the notice board near the entrance." And with that, Lima went back to her computer.
Everyone ran towards the entrance. Seems like all of us were super excited to have a chance to see our respective friends.
-Here in our dimension-
Sigh. School was rough today. Ms Christine didn't even let up on the Spanish homework. It's already 2am and I'm not even done with my homework yet. Oh well. That's what I get for lazing around and playing Dance Central the entire night.
Suddenly, from beside me, my phone beeped. I grabbed at it and smiled. Glitch hadn't texted me that entire night.
'NINA. . .'
'WHAT :D'
'THERES A DANCE COMPETITION! WINNER GETS TO TRAVEL TO UR DIMENSION FOR A WHOLE WEEK!'
'OHEMGEE! GLITCH, U HAVE 2 WIN!'
'WISH ME LUCH :D IVE BEEN CHOREOGRAPHING SINCE 5pm -.-'
'Aww boo hoo. Good luck! :D text me when you win!'
And with that, I started on my homework again, with a whole new energy, fueled on the chance that I might actually meet Glitch! IN REAL LIFE!
-The day of the competition-
We were going in order of the crews. With Riptide starting first, every other crew was in the waiting room.
Emilia performed I Knew You Were Trouble by Taylor Swift. No one actually expected her to do such a song but she wasn't bad at it.
Bodie danced to Live While We're Young by One Direction. It took everything in Dare's power not to run up there and hug him.
Taye went for We Found Love and Lil'T danced to Shut Up and Drive, both by Rihanna. Angel did Locked Out of Heaven by Bruno Mars. Miss Aubrey did Love you Like A Love Song by Selena Gomez.
Mo did Whistle by Flo Rida, which I personally thought was quite a good choice. I did Nina's favorite song, When Can I See You Again by Owl City.
Dare and MacCoy sat the competition out. Reason why? I dunno. They wouldn't tell.
-Judging is over-
"In third place, is Angel with Locked out Of Heaven." Angel smiled. "In runner up, we have…Glitch with When Can I See You Again!" My heart sank. I…I didn't win…I can't see Nina. I stood up and left the room. I ran over to the entrance, not wanting to hear who won and not wanting to do anything. I just leaned against the wall and waited for Mo.
"And in first place, we have Mo with Whistle!" Rasa announced.
After 15 minutes, Mo finally came. Our journey home was silent. He had nothing to say and I had nothing to say to him. The moment we reached home, I went straight to my room. I couldn't tell Nina I didn't win. I couldn't only imagine how angry she must be with me.
Well over an hour, I was in my room drawing a picture of Nina. Last week she showed me a picture of herself. She was really pretty. It's just a pity I couldn't see her.
Suddenly, I heard a knock on my door. "Come in…" I said softly. Mo walked in and sat next to me on my bed. I followed his gaze and saw him staring at my drawing of Nina.
"Cool! That her?" he asked, in awe. I slowly nodded my head, hiding the sketchpad under my pillow. "Listen, lil G. I won. But…I don't need it. I don't need to go there. Not as much as I think you do." Mo said, his hand on my shoulder.
I looked up at him. "R…Really? You…You would do that for me?" I asked, my heart lit up with hope. Mo smiled and ruffled my hair. "Sure kiddo. You're like my lil bro. It'd give it up fer you if that's what ya really wanted. Meet Lima at DCI HQ tomorrow mornin."
I gave Mo a hug "THANKS MO!" I screamed before I ran to my phone to tell Nina the good news.
'NINA, I'M GOING THERE 2MORO! :DDDDD'
'OHEMGEE GLITCH! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE E'
'haha chill Nina! Wanna meet up?'
'DUH! Tell u what. Meet u outside Starbucks at Mecha Mall. I'll pay for ur cab if u need me 2 xD'
'no need to tell me twice ;) see ya tomorrow, nina'
'see ya Glitch :3'
I hurried over to my closet and dumped a week's worth of clothes and bleach/dye bottles into my neon green bag. After that, I jumped right into bed, hoping the night would pass faster so I could see Nina.
-the next morning in Dance Central, storyteller mood-
Mo woke up at around noon. Oh crap. I didn't see Glitch off… He walked over to the kitchen and saw a piece of paper there. 'Hey Mo! Thanks so much man! I so owe you! Glitch' Mo chuckled to himself. See ya little man…
-In DCI HQ-
I practically ran into the mission room to see Lima and Dr. Felix there. "Sup guys!" I said cheerfully. "Okay Glitch. You are about to go to another dimension. You have to be careful. I would go with you but I'm needed here. Dr Felix will accompany you." Lima said.
Dr. Felix gave me two thumbs up and a toothy smile before taking me into the portal. My stomach was filled with butterflies at the thought of seeing Nina.
-At the street outside Starbucks-
I rushed right over. I leaned against the wall, fingers in my pocket, anticipating our first meeting. I smiled to myself. Suddenly, I heard fast footsteps. My head jerked to the side. A smile that showed off my teeth was glued onto my face. Oh boy :)
If you guys want me to, I can continue it! That is, if I get enough asks telling me to... Please review if you liked it! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this! :D
