Hola, amigos! i am back with the next chapter to You're Never Alone by moi! so, sit backand enjoy a good omlette du fromege as you read what these girls go through now.
"why does this keep happening to us? whoever is doing this will feel my WRA-!" Gwendolyn stated as she woke up, but was cut off from hands on her mouth by none other than her bestest bestie, Bellatrix. "shush, or the aliens will hear us!" and with this, all 5 stared at the hyper girl with confusion and worry that she may have gone insane. "jk, jk guys. but where are we now anyway?" Bellatrix asked as the 6 were in an indoors alleyway. "i don't know, but let's find out." Daria stated as the 6 got up and exited the alleyway. once the rest of the room was visible, the 6 girls had their mouths gaping wide open all the way down to the clean cream floor.
The wall was either a black or really dark blue, you having to come up close to tell which it was, with entrances that were in the shape of white electrical outlets. on each outlet, designed entrance, there was a black sign that stated a name, being different for each and varying from Sonic to Fix-it Felix to Heroe's Duty. The floor was shimmering like brand new and there were huge windows that had light shining through them as if the sun were outside (even though that light is possibly from electricity- we ARE in an electric plug-in after all), small booths laying in the center of the long hallway that leads to every video game in the arcade.
The girls just stared around in shock, looking at all the familiar game characters wander around Central, a few noticing some new faces and looking in their direction. Tails flew by and Q-bert passed by, on his way to Fix-it Felix (most likely to Wreck-it Ralph no doubt), all the fanous game characters just mingling and discussing of their hard day at work or some news that came up. "oh my god, we are in an ELECTRICAL PLUG-" and Bellatrix was cut off by a rather nervous and jumpy Teralyn (it's kind of rare to see Teralyn like that, but hey they ARE in a freaking plug-in). after Bellatrix managed to calm down after the realization, Teralyn let go. "ok, so what do we do now?!" Teralyn asked nervously as Eden was gasping for air, hyperventilating in the background. "ok, calm down everybody! we need to figure out how this happened! we do the same plan as in the arcade, but around here. we can split up to singles to check out more area in shorter time and if we are still searching by the time the arcade opens, either come back before someone plays or hide where the players can't see you. we don't want to cause any suspicions." Alexia stated and they all reluctantly agreed. the faster they solve this, the faster they can get out before they get in trouble. "ok, so where do we go?" asked Gwendolyn, who had been holding a scowl in frustration since she woke in Game Central. "well, Alexia can go to Sugar Rush, Eden can head over to Fix-it Felix, Bellatrix will head over to the Mario game, i'll head over to Sonic, Teralyn will go to Hero's Duty *gulp from Teralyn*, and you can head over to Tapper's. just don't get drunk there, got it?" Gwendolyn didnt reply, not promising anything, but everyone agreed (except Teralyn, but she was too quiet for her own good, staying behind in the shadows of her friends) and the 6 split.
Gwendolyn, being the first to leave the group, headed a random direction, hoping to find Tapper's. when she reached the end of the room and noticed that she went the wrong way, she yelled in fury, despite how the people surrounding her looked at her, and headed the other direction and stomped over to Tapper's after a long journey. she headed in and looked around, finding various characters from Dr. Eggman and Zangief to Neff and Yuni Verse. Gwendolyn walked around, a few characters eyeing her but her not giving a crap, and after a 3 hour search in the stalls, counters, bathrooms, lost and found, and even where Tapper usually serves drinks when he left to serve a small blue boy in white clothing and a white helmet (boy from Dig Dug), Gwendolyn finally gave up and, deciding she had extra time, sat on the counter, waiting only a few seconds before Tapper came up to her.
"Hello there, what would you like missy?" he asked with a gleam in his eye. "Gwendolyn stared and replied "give me a root beer." and with that, he disappeared and came back with an overflowing glass, not spilling a drop with his speed. Gwendolyn grumbled a thanks as Tapper left to serve other customers. Gwendolyn sighed and gulped up her rather large drink in one gulp. soon, Tapper came back and she asked for a refill, which he got her in seconds flat. he had asked if anything was wrong, but she just shooed him away. she glared at her drink, frustrated at the predicament she and her friends were in and angry at whoever did this to them. Gwendolyn was so deep in thought that she didn't notice another customer sit down next to her.
she had finally noticed the stranger next to her when she heard a sad, pitiful sigh from her side. she looked to her side to find the famous chicken of the Mario series, Luigi (it hurts to call him that, i love Luigi, but Gwen thinks this, not me and she's in a foul mood). Tapper appeared to Luigi, who asked for the"usual" and Tapper came back with a glass of root beer even bigger and darker than Gwendolyn's drink. "hey, what drink is that?" Gwendolyn asked, but Luigi was too into the drink to have heard her, gulping it all down. "Hey, Luigi! i asked what drink that is?!" she growled and he jumped in surprise, almost dropping his drink. he glanced in her direction and replied "are you talking to me?" and he points at himself as if making sure she was talking to him. "uh, yes. you're the only Luigi here, or am i wrong?" she replied sarcastically, but Luigi didn't care. he gave her a stuck look of shock as he replied "Double Dark Root Beer Burst. why?" "cause i wanna try some." and with that, she grabbed his cup and took a quick sip before he snatched it back and gulped down the rest.
"instead of stealing mine, why don't you try your own cup?!" Luigi said as he stared at her. "well, i would if i could pay for it. i was actually supposed to sneak out before Tapper came back and charged me." Gwendolyn replied in a not-so-good mood. "well, why don't i pay? it's on the house." Luigi said with a small grin as he called out for Tapper again, while he asked for 2 "DDRBB", Gwendolyn just stared at him, shocked that he would pay for both even though they just met (and she tried to steal his drink). Tapper came back with 2 DDRBB and went only a few feet away, wiping a small glass. "thanks." Gwendolyn mumbled. "no problem ..." and Luigi hesitated. "Gwendolyn, but just call me Gwen." Gwendolyn finished for him. the 2 had small talk as they drank, Tapper eyeing both with a gleam in his eye that grew when he saw what was going on ...
Daria ran all over the place until she found the Sonic game. she slowly entered the game after the train ride like in the movie and looked around her surroundings. It looked like the surroundings of the earlier sonic games, like Sonic Adventures. she walked around and admired the surroundings, soon going into a run that made her feel free. she would bump into a Flicky every once in a while, but that just made her admire the scenery even more. She wasn't really finding anything though along the way and she kept running until she reached a mountain, her looking out onto the land, the exit to Central a far distance away from where she is. she was just about to walk away, when she was stopped by a red figure. "Hey, what are you doing here?!" and blocking her path to leave was Knuckles the Echidna. He glared with his piercing green eyes, waiting impatiently for an answer. Daria, not afraid to back down. "i'm just looking around. why, is it against the law?" she snapped back, angering the echidna. "well, it looks pretty suspicious that a new face just so happens to come over here! now, wouldn't you find that weird in your own game?" he asked, arms crossed. "... fine you got me, that would be weird 'if i had my own game' but i really am just looking around." she said as she walked pass him and walked away.
Knuckles, being a knuckle-head, follows. "you think you could leave here that easily?" "if i run, yes. i would be out of here in no time." she declared, hands behind her head. "oh, is that so? then how about a race?" he asked as he was already stretching. "i would beat you by a landslide!" he said as she fumed at his words. "bring. It. ON! GO!" and the 2 raced off to the exit of Central, anger changing to laughter. when they got to the entrance, both were laughing from the adrenaline of running. "i win!" Daria yelled as she fist-pumped the air. Knuckles look baffled as he claimed "no you didn't! i won!" he said and both argued left and right until they stared at each other, seeing how red they looked from exhaustion and anger. looking at the other's face, the 2 burst into laughter. "well, intruder, looks like you are not a threat after all. my name's Knuckles." he said as he brought out his gloved hand. Daria brought out hers and they did a hand shake. "Daria, but you can call me Dee." and they shook on it.
Bellatrix entered the Mario world and walked to the track located at Peach's castle. she began by walking around there (also, she got lost on her way to the actual castle) and almost got ran over by a sudden go-kart that passed by. Bellatrix jumped out of the way before she could get killed. she noticed another go-kart that passed by and both came to a stop. 2 figures jumped out to see who or what they had almost trampled. Bellatrix looked up to find Bowser Jr. as well as the playable Koopa. Bellatrix stared at them with a hidden surprise. but the other 2 looked even more shocked as they stared at her. Bellatrix was about to ask them something, when Bowser Jr. said what she hoped no one would find out. "HEY, you're the human we saw a while ago! i saw you pass by while i was racing Koopa!" and the Koopa nodded in agreement, admitting that he too saw Bellatrix earlier. Bellatrix became wide-eyed and went on her knees when she saw that the 2 were about to run off, probably to tell Bowser or Mario about her being here. "please, no! don't tell anybody about me being here!" Bellatrix pleaded with her big teary puppy eyes and pouted lip. Bowser Jr. turned as both came to a stop. "and why not?! you are a human inside the game! do you know what could happen if you're here?!" "uh ..." Bellatrix didn't know what to say. she and her friends didn't think of what could happen if something could happen to them.
Koopa answered Bowser Jr's question for her. "you are not a video game character, so you can't respawn. if you die here, you won't be able to come back to life! you will be dead and you will die the same way a human dies, not like a game character where we just glitch up and disappear. we need to tell so you can be protected from danger!" Koopa stated as the 2 mario characters looked at her with worry. Bellatrix had a face of horror, thinking of the many ways that she could die in a video game, including the action ones like Call-of- "OH MY GOSH! TERA! guys, i have to go but please don't tell anyone about us! we are trying to firgure this out and don't want the other characters finding out! if they do, they will think of something suspicious and we don't want to bother anybody with-" "wait, we?! there's more?!" Bowser Jr. cut her off. "yes, now please! we don't want anyone involved and risking their own lives for us! please don't tell!" Bellatrix begged. " Bowser Jr. and Koopa thought about this and after a while, they looked back at her and nodded, agreeing to keep this a secret. "fine, but can you please come back so we know you're ok every once in a while? i want to make sure me keeping this a secret doesn't kill you. also, we wouldn't mind having you hang around." said Koopa as Bowser Jr. nodded hastily. "ok, i will. oh and my name's Bellatrix, but Bella is fine." Bellatrix went back to her cheerful attitude and turned to leave. "well, if you see anything suspicious let me know please! i gotta go!" and with that, she ran out of the game, thinking of how nice the 2 were, unlike in the actual game play.
Eden walked into the train that led to Fix-it Felix and rode over to the game. Eden strolled around the small area around the apartment where the game play takes place and then passed over to the area where Q-Bert and his friends lived in the end of the movie. After that, she headed over to the actual inside of the apartment, but didn't find anything in the hallways, bathrooms, etc (she obviously can't check the bedrooms). once she exited the apartment, Eden headed over to the area where Wreck-it Ralph himself lives in. there is a small house built just out of view of players, but the huge pile of bricks remain, sitting right on Wreck-it Ralph's stump, the last sign of his original home. Eden headed over to the bricks and, after several times of almost tripping on the bricks, started climbing to the top of the pile to look at the other side. what she saw actually shocked her.
she expected to see barren land, but there was a whole forest surrounding them! after 30 years of cutting the forest down, it actually regrew and now it was beautiful! it was quite a sight to see, an endless sea of green leaves and small critters crawling around. there was life here and it was amazing! Eden couldn't find it to look away, entranced by the beauty. maybe in the backstory, it was more than just his home that Ralph was angry of losing ..."HEY!" and with that, Eden jumped and fell head first into the bricks, hitting her head on a brick hard! "Oh My Gosh, are you ok?!" and the stranger, though Eden knew by his voice, ran over to her and offered a hand to lift her up. she gladly took it and was helped up, though the stranger pulled a little too hard (didn't know his own strength) and pulled her up on his chest. when her head became clear, Eden looked up to see none other than Wreck-it Ralph in the flesh ... well, code. they just stared at each other, as if entranced, but Eden then noticed how their chests were touching and how close they were, and she pushed herself away, hiding her blushing face.
"hi, um, i'm so sorry about that Wre-sir! i didn't know you lived here!" Eden caught herself before she said his name, and luckily he didn't notice. "that's fine, looks like you're new here anyway so you wouldn't know. sorry about scaring you like that. is your head ok?" he asked, reaching out to check her head. "i'm fine! i'm ok!" she said quickly and he pulled his arm away. "so, what's with the pile of bricks?" she asked, already knowing the answer but trying to start conversation anyway. "oh, well, i kind of live here." Ralph answered, looking kind of embarrassed. "well, i think it is amazing." Eden stated, gaining a shocked look from Ralph. "you do?" "yes! i looked at the top of that pile and saw a magnificent view of the forest, lit up only by the twinkling stars up in the sky and the moon that shines over the night! i would love to be able to sleep under the stars!" Eden exclaimed, a genuine smile on her face. Ralph had never really thought of that, but now that he looked at it, he saw that she was actually right. it was a pretty nice view! Eden saw that there was nothing else to look for or talk about, so she started to take her leave. Ralph noticed and called for her. "wait!" she turned back to him. "what's your name?" "Eden, but you can call me Ed!" "well, can we hang out some time? i could give you a tour of game central since you're new!" "how do you know i'm new, huh?!" Eden replied with a sassy smirk on her face. "because i would notice a face like yours anywhere and its a first for me!" Ralph replied and Eden had a slight blush on her cheeks. "sure! i'll come by after the arcade closes again! i gotta meet up wit someone!" and with that and a grin from Ralph, both waved goodbye as Eden took the train.
Teralyn knew that she was chosen to go in Heroe's Duty due to her quiet stature and skills of sneaking around, but she was nervous, a whole bunch of questions swarming in her head. 'what if i wake a cybug and it exits the game? what if it chases me? what if i kills me?!' Teralyn was so lost in thought that she didn't see a blue blur heading her direction. without knowing it, Teralyn found herself falling face first on the ground, dropping her glasses in the process. not being able to see, she touched the floor in hopes of finding it, but she didn't see the same blue blur that hit her go back and retrieve her glasses. "hey, i believe these belong to you." and the once blurry blue figure put on her glasses and Teralyn was able to see that what bumped into her was Sonic the Hedgehog. she just stared, shocked to meet the most famous Sega character ever! Sonic didn't really notice this, however, and spoke. "sorry i bumped into you. i just love to run around the place to explore. i haven't seen you here before. my name's Sonic the Hedgehog!" and with that, he took out his hand, his signature smirk on his face. Teralyn, dumbfounded, simply shook his hadn't with hers and said "Teralyn, but you can call me Tera if you want?" "Tera, huh? well, i like it! suits you." and Teralyn slightly blushed, never really being commented for her nickname. "well, i gotta go, see you later!" he rushed out in his usual speed. Teralyn stared at his direction, still slightly blushing, but shook it off and headed for Hero's Duty.
she took to train and headed into the dark, currently empty land of Heroe's Duty. she slightly shook in fear, but walked around the area, eventually heading to the tall tower where the light beam resided. Teralyn was debating whether to go inside or not, but never got to decide as a cybug flew by out of no where and spotted her. she looked up at it and the light beam reflected in her glasses, the cybug entranced by the light from her glasses. it flew towards it, wanting that light as Teralyn turned and ran for it! she dodged when it charged towards her, but as she ran she didn't notice a cybug egg laying there and she trippe on it, twisting her ankle and awakening another cybug. now with 2 cybugs after her (they hatch pretty freaking fast!) and Teralyn's ankle still in too much pain to walk in, Teralyn knew this was the end for her. she tried to get up despite her injured ankle, but one of the cybugs charged at her, hitting her back and forcing her on the ground roughyl, Teralyn squinting in pain. she had her eyes closed, ready to die, and the cybugs charged at her.
however, out of no where, a blue beam charged straight at the 2 cybugs with such speed that the impact immediately killed them! Teralyn, noticing she wasn't dead yet but still with eyes closed from the pain on her back, felt herself get carried by 2 arms in a firm grip and then wind rushing through her hair. once the pain and fear left her body, she slowly opened her eyes and looked up to see Sonic, carrying her bridal style away from Hero's Duty and back to Game Central. there, he slowly and gently put her down. once he did, he spoke. "why would you go into that game?! there are those cybugs in there and they can kill you in seconds! you're lucky that i came back for you!" he said with anger and panic in his eyes. Teralyn looked at him and replied "well, i was looking for something, but i guess there was nothing i wanted or needed there. why did you come back anyway? and how did you know i was inn Hero's Duty?" she asked, looking up with innocent eyes at the now green embarrassed ones of Sonic. blushing slightly, eh replied "well, i was wondering if you wanted to come to my game sometime to hang out and meet my friends, so i came back to ask but saw you heading there. so, i followed to make sure you were ok." he had been scratching his head while saying this. Teralyn gave a small smile at him and replied after chuckling "sure, i'll go. how about after the arcade closes?" Sonic gave a look of happy relief and gave a thumbs up, winking and saying "alright then. see you later Tera!" and with that, he left in a flash. Teralyn looked at his direction before giving a dreamy sigh, then realizing what she did and snapping out of it. she then headed to where her friends were supposed to be meeting.
Alexia walked around the candy race land known as Sugar Rush and followed the road. she searched around and had been walking for a while now, passing through 3 stages of Sugar Rush already, Alexia was getting tired until she noticed the Diet Cola Volcano. needing some well-deserved rest, Alexia decided to enter the mountain, going through the glitchy entrance Vanellope used in the movie. Alexia walked to where the boiling soda was and sat next to it, admiring the bubbles that boiled up. she looked around and looked up, where the mentos resided. she looked back down again, but didn't notice a mento falling danerously close to where Alexia sat. before she could contemplate what happened, she felt herslef being pushed by another figure and heard an explosion. on the ground, she looked up to find that there was boiling soda gushing near where she sat moments ago and soda splatted on the area. Alexia looked in horror, thinking of how she almost died. but wait, who saved her?! when she looked up at her savior, she couldn't believe who it was.
"geez, you should be a little more careful young lady! you could've killed youerself! luckily, i walked in and noticed that mento falling beside you, so i pushed you away! i'm guessing you're a new game character since i haven't seen you before. well, don't tell anyone you met though and don't ask why!" he gave a a glare that meant that he was serious. "well anyway, i am being quite rude aren't i? my name is Turbo!" he said with a cocky smirk in his face.
Well, chapter three is up, YAY! now enjoy some chocolate or something!
